Very different , bond after a huge spliff  :D

good laid back tune , when the comp is over  you should re-do with completely different lyrics  about laying about in a hammock on a tropical beach ( tell me to shut up !! )

tiz good  ;D
I wanted to be a hippy....but my mum wouldn't let me !!

Beware the JudDeRMan when the moon grows FAT !!!!!!!!

This is very cool, so atmospheric and relaxed :)
Your vocals sound so completely effortless, but really great, especially with the harmonies. I'm very impressed.
The guitar playing fits the song perfectly
Nice subtle organ sound too. Almost missed that.

I found the lyrics were a bit unspectacular. Maybe I'm missing the real message between the Bond titles though... You've got such a great voice and a beautiful song, thought the lyrics should better fit that.

Hello nooms,

It took me a second listen before I was able to appreciate the brilliance of this this.  It's typical of your writing style, totally unique with many surprises along the way.  It sounds like you've devoted a great deal of time to making this song so sound so good.

I've listened several times and this gets better every time! :)

Well done!

Great sounding track which has a unique world weary and despondent feel to it .....very alt. Bond. Hard to suggest any changes as I think you've pretty much nailed it as it is. The guitar sound is perfect for the mood of the song.

This is cool man, far out... ;)

You've got a really unique sound Nooms, I think this great. "You just can't Russia with love" very good  :D

For some reason I'm reminded of 'while my guitar gently weeps' but I don't really know why.. ???

Great stuff, this is a cool comp..

Hi Nooms,

Now this i like an awful lot. I love flange and phase effects so it was off to a great start. Love the vocal style. Just trippy, you know, that feeling you have when you're just slightly drunk. Happy. Everything is just right.
Great vocals. Quality guitar work. All subtle and dreamy.
Nice one.

I came for the songs and stayed for the puns. I do love a good pun so thanks for the giggles Nooms and Tina!

Very odd for a bond theme. I can understand the concern of "laboured" here. For me a little (just a little mind) more drama in the vocal could move the ear more flowingly with the laid back vibes. The psychedlic vocals are very much a warming-in thing for me. But it worked.

The lyrics as reference cramming was smile inducing, but, perhaps this is at odds with the vibes. Or conversely, perhaps they ground the composition.

I am yet to decide. As such, enjoying the ride! :)
