When I first heard Dmitry Golubovsky's track 'No Air,' I loved the chords he used and immediately wanted to do my own version (original at https://soundcloud.com/golubovsky/more-air.) Luckily Dmitry was happy for me to do this. This is a very rough mix, especially with the vocals but I think I like it this way. It is very different from the original in structure, style and story, focusing now on a dying astronaut who knows he can never return home. It was gonna be an instrumental but after listening to it late one night, I realised that it really needed vocals and so, I thought I'd have a go. Hope you like this one. It's from the heart.
For those of you asking, the lyrics are:
This is mission five - and I'm barely alive
Looking down on a planet of blue - and I'm thinking of you.
Here amongst the stars - so near and yet so far
I'm running out of time - is this my place to die?
Systems failed - the engine is dead
I'm stuck in space, no more air
And I know, I know - I'm not coming home
