lyrics

Happiness (16edo)

This song is where the plot gets wrapped up for the live space rock opera. Elaine had given up on finding the love in her life, and had agreed to let the aliens ascend her to a higher energy form. So during "Happiness" she floats around as an energy cloud. But then another energy cloud floats over and they merge together, forming the shape of a heart. This is the punchline of the entire rock opera. Her true love had turned out to be a higher energy form that had also given up on the human realm (or whatever alien it was before ascending to an energy cloud.. who knows).

Love is not about finding a perfect person, it's about finding someone who lets you be the best person - or energy cloud - you can be.

The End.

This is the sound that I hear in my head and search for.. I loved this whole album. Bright synthesizers, smooth synthesizers, chiptune synths, and Buddhist bells 🔔 Desert Island Rain started to feel like an old Jean Michel Jarre song at one point. I really can’t pick a favorite yet, there all so good! I look forward to listening to all the music Sevish creates. 100% recommended! Dionysus Virus
