Velvet Sky
by @mikeymason
Liner Notes
This is a song about coming into your own power--whatever that is--learning to be comfortable with who you are and what you you're capable of. Like all songs, it'll probably mean different things to different people. It's most likely not about being a werewolf. Unless it is.

Lyrics
There’s a new sensation, strange vibration, underneath my skin
A queer elation, a transformation happening within.
An unnaccountable shift in my paradigm.
A mystifying gift, to which I am resigned…
Under a velvet sky.
Something was hibernating, now it’s waking, deep inside my soul
I find it captivating, intoxicating, out of my control.
Immaculate conception doing what it does,
A curious exception to the me that was…
Under a velvet sky.
Rare and peculiar notions wakening inside,
Secret and seductive, and all I’ve been denied,
Under a velvet sky.

Great melodies, great hook with the harmonies on "Under a velvet sky."
Really enjoy the overall of the production, there's something about it that makes me think I'm listening to it on the radio. There's also a kind of quiet intensity about the music that fits the theme.
The bridge is maybe a little too smooth? Feels like it needs to be more of a statement?
Really enjoyed this one.
A curious exception to the me that was... Under a velvet sky.
The hook on this is so so good! Love the acoustic texture in here particularly.
Fantastic production work! (I'm always so impressed with your tracks and this is no exception)
Excellent track!
