Listen / order here: https://Tarja.lnk.to/CloserToTheSkyID This song was meant for one of my rock releases one day, when I sat down to write the first ideas with Erik Nyholm in Finland many years ago. Erik had been involved on my rock albums as a song writer before and after, but here was something in this particular song that made me think I must leave it for other time. The song changed name at least 3 times during its creative process and had different lyrics and moods. Only recently I finished writing the dark, but hopeful lyrics and rest of the music for it.

Outlanders 'Closer To The Sky' - Official Visualizer
Listen / order here: https://Tarja.lnk.to/CloserToTheSkyID This song was meant for one of my rock releases one day, when I sat down to write the first ideas with Erik Nyholm in Finland many years ago. Erik had been involved on my rock albums as a song writer before and after, but here was something in this particular song that made me think I must leave it for other time. The song changed name at least 3 times during its creative process and had different lyrics and moods. Only recently I finished writing the dark, but hopeful lyrics and rest of the music for it. It fits perfectly as an opener for Outlanders, because of its catchy melody, wishful lyrics and the mood it captures. We knew that we needed an extraordinary guitar player. A rock soul with a progressive mind that could imagine the song being part of a movie soundtrack. We had only one name in mind: Trevor Rabin did just an outstanding job with his edgy, incredible guitar sound. He made the song reach another level and for that I am deeply grateful. It only happens when the players soul is involved and that really was the case here. Trevor is unique and truly a gentleman. CREATION OF THE VISUALIZER Instead of focusing all the efforts into 1 or 2 videos to promote the first singles, we decided to film images for all the songs recorded for Outlanders. The main reason was for us to be able to show you the beautiful island of Antigua. These videos are colorful mood captures of the island without any script or story behind them, deprived from any post production and not meant to be understood as music videos. We call them visualizers. The filming was done by using only iPhone 13 Pro Max in combination with a drone DJI Maverick 4K. For me it is nice to listen music while you have an image synchronized with it, so I hope these visualizers will help you to discover our music while at the same time the unspoiled, natural paradise, Antigua. The location for this visualizer is the Hodges Bay Resort & Spa where you can see the magnificent Boonji Spaceman from @brendanmurphyart Vocals Tarja Programming Torsten Guitars Trevor Rabin Recorded and engineered at Embassy Studio Antigua & Barbuda by Torsten Stenzel Vocals recorded by Tarja at Stardust III, Marbella, Spain Guitars recorded and co-produced by Trevor Rabin Produced and mixed by Torsten Stenzel, Tarja & MIC Mastered by Tom Porcell Mastering Executive Producer Marcelo Cabuli for NEMS Enterprises SRL Art Direction Tarja & MIC Antigua & Barbuda Photographs by Alexis Andrews Artwork by Sebastian Freimauer Album recorded and mixed using Genelec Studio Monitors LYRICS When the colours loose their meaning Will the sun still cover me? If above the stars are bleeding Only dust my eyes can see Last twilight find me in this darkness Take me with heal my shattered dreams Once fallen but In my heart I keep fighting Aiming high Closer to the sky Where the rivers long for water From another time and place I feel the days are growing colder In my mind, solitude, haunting haze Last twilight find me in this darkness Take me with heal my shattered dreams Once fallen but In my heart I keep fighting Aiming high Closer to the sky Catch up with the latest news on all earMUSIC releases here: https://www.ear-music.net/ https://ear-music.shop/ earMUSIC on Facebook:   / earmusicofficial   earMUSIC on Instagram:   / earmusic   earMUSIC on Twitter:   / earmusicedel
