Decent but definitely not the best example of The Cinematic Orchestra. Something from albums, Motion or Everyday would be better.  Good stuff thou Bill.

Spoken like someone who's only ever uploaded two tracks.

I've had 120 different uploads over the years, so I think I speak from experience when I say that this song is an example of exactly what RP wants, so uploading something different or "better", whatever that means, won't get you very far.

This track was accepted and added into heavy rotation with 48 hours of me uploading it, which almost never happens. And the RP audience has embraced it, which is rarer still.

It's familiar without being derivative, which explains all the comparisons to Coldplay, Radiohead, and Philip Glass, three artists that are well-liked by the RP community, and I'd add Erik Satie to the list since that's what it made me think of the first time I heard it.

It's the only track on the album that stood out as radio-friendly to me, but don't let that stop the fans from uploading other tracks they think might make the cut. I notice that several other songs from the band have been rejected already, but I can't remember if that was the case when I uploaded this one.

Sounds just like Coldplay.

...this is just a great segue from obscure floyd into obscure watson...

Philip Glass-y piano, methinks.

Closest thing I've heard to Jeff Buckley since that fatal Mississippi river swim.
Nice.

OK, had to go to YouTube to check this band out. It's one guy...at a piano...singing...until the orchestration kicks in. I was blown away. What a talent.

CBC2 has a new music show at night that's excellent.  Brave exposure of many indie bands.

Interesting. I still like CBC for public affairs programming but rarely enjoy the music.  Been a while since I tried CBC2  (I thought it was 3?)

Me too.  Nice use of silent spaces.

Sounds a bit like Antony Hegarty (sp?) or maybe Jeff Buckley.  Both in a good way.  Or Chris Martin.  This band gets airplay on CBC2 and I like them.

For a moment there I thought it was a coldplay song, whoa...how long was I out that time?
hehehee

It's making me think of the Tiger Lillies, only sober....

like on Suicidal Sober Sunday kind of sober.
Not bad tho

Judging from the overall score, you're not alone. Any time someone is singing in falsetto, the usual suspects come out of the woodwork to belch out macho swill so that we all know they are "real" men. Overcompensating for their "shortcomings" if you ask me.
