      @@geofff.3343 silly reply. No one can keep up with every little thing happening in music. Rayland is not well-known and therefore not boosted by algorithms. You could only naturally find him by deliberately filtering by genre, relvevancy or view count. Unless you're like me and found him through a random Spotify playlist a couple years ago.

    My kitten, Ivory, had bright Yellow Eyes when she was little.
    I made an instagram story with her trying to touch my hand from behind the window glass, and I put this song on as a background. That's how I discovered you.
    Now, because of a strange and terrible sickness, she's gone. She was only a year and a half, and every time I listen to this I start to cry.
    She lives on through your music, Rayland.
    Thank you.

    My cat ran away and I think about him constantly....literally every second of every day.
    I feel like this song is about him, his new journey, and finding his own way.
    He is a vagabond now, and all his paths are filled with uncertainty.
    He definitely left me lonely but I only wish for his happiness....
    for his safety....and mostly, that he meets his girl with Yellow Eyes!

    There's a paperclip resting on my countertop
    Sunday morning I forgot
    What it's like to lose a friend
    Yesterday
    How it seems so far away
    And I've said all I can say
    Now it's time I get to goin'
    Now it's time I get to find my own way
    And I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely
    Now I'm on the road
    Knowing not which way to go
    Is it yes or is it no?
    I don't really care
    For the golden sun
    Has washed me away and I've become
    Just another vagabond holding my head
    Now it's time I get to goin'
    Now it's time I get to find my own way
    And I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely
    All in all it's a beautiful day
    And I wake up all alone
    I cannot help but run away
    Now I'm afraid
    That it's all in my head
    Don't you know
    That it's all in your head?
    So you roll the dice
    Melt the fire
    Burn the ice
    Find the girl with yellow eyes
    And go and break her heart
    See that nothing changes
    And I know not what I've become
    A prisoner to everyone I've loved from the start
    Now it's time I get to goin'
    Now it's time I get to find my own way
    And I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely
    I'll leave you lonely

I was a vocalist in area bands late sixties, early seventies, and I love original, thoughtful and intelligent music and I thank a coworker for turning me on to Rayland. I love to harmonize with him. That 3 part harmony is fun! Thanks Rayland. You are surprisingly psychedelic live, by the way.
