This song coverd in this way adds so many new layers, for me at least. I've never really "gotten" the concept of grief, or at least never felt it the same way others seem to. I've been lucky enough to not experience many personal losses, the only ones that come to mind are when my grandma died when i was about 7, and when my dad died last october (2023). Both times i didnt react as strongly as others "expected" me to i guess? About month or so before my dad died, he called me to let he know he'd be kicking the bucket soon, and i distictly remember him saying something along the lines of "i know you're probably crying right now" but i wasnt, and i didnt have the heart to tell him. i didnt cry after he died either, even though i had so many people giving me their condolences. My mom even offered to let me stay home from school for a day or two, and usually i would have capitalized on that but i think i had something important going on at the time. Anyway, this song about grief and how people make things up to cope with it covered in a robotic sounding manner kind of perfectly encapsulates how i work. It makes it sound _clinical_ , like how i tend to take peoples thoughts and feelings and analize them in a sort of clinical sence. The robotic sound sorta making a mockery? A satirization? Of how people make up things like "a place beyond the grave" and how someone "lives on" in ur heart to cope with loss reflects how i feel about it. I've always thought people just made up those concepts for kids but the more i look at it the more i think they actually believe what they're saying Anyway, I dont know where im going with this thought I just chugged a whole mug of cammomile tea before writing this I swear im not a sociopath or whatever Im probably just autistic I love ur cover btw Oh hey my eyes just watered a bit Good job :]
You've made so many wonderful instrument choices in this! The toy piano ostinato and the pulse wave lead are inspired - they work so well! Your experience really shows in the clarity and warmth of the mix - there's plenty of interesting detail, with excellent balance throughout. Thanks for taking part in this competition!

with the context a robot singing this song... it Implies a singing of an virtual immortal mourning something that once had life, something, It truly care for.
