Had a blast working with P1K on this, I think we worked really well together and came up with something neither of us would have done working separately. I wanted to do something bluesy and he came up with 'sky blues' in reference to the fact both of our characters are blue and we went from there :P
Thanks again to the P@D crew for putting together a great album as usual and taking me along for the ride ^^

Lyrics:
the night falls hard on sunken dreams
the sorry splendor rots and gleams
patrons bark and angels jeer
the band plays loud and they don't hear
all they love is black and white
don't see the color of the light
lost their spirit and bled their souls
with crimson shovels digging holes
oh you know I don't really wanna live in this strange world
I need somebody beside me to live in this strange land
I need somebody to hide me away from these cruel times
don't tell me to hold out for a miracle
I've been here for so long
somebody just come and take me where the skies are blue
when you just want to fly away it's the sky blues
men and horses line the street
corrupted lives left incomplete
afraid of shadows on the wall
cast by the fingers of the tall
suits of power, white and black
bring velvet ruin on their backs
and through the laughter and the moans
it’s just the thieves that feel at home
oh you know I don't really wanna live in this strange world
I need somebody beside me to live in this strange land
I need somebody to hide me away from these cruel times
don't tell me to hold out for a miracle
I've been here for so long
somebody just come and take me where the skies are blue
when you just want to fly away it's the sky blues
I need to get higher
high above and far away
keep the clouds so dark and grey
below me
I need to get farther
and find a place to start again
to laugh at jokes and play pretend
I wonder where you are
I'm empty
and floating like I'm deep in space
away from every kind of place
come find me
but sadly
the feeling ends, I'm falling now
I'm fading back into the crowd
I've only come so far
the band is tired, their throats are dry
but still they play, I wonder why
they see those shadows on the wall
the cracks run deep as pieces fall
can we divine a better end
and be a better kind of friend
if not I doubt we shall survive
I just want the truth to come alive
and I sure don’t really wanna live in this strange world
I need somebody beside me to live in this strange land
I need somebody to hide me away from these cruel times
don't tell me to hold out for a miracle
I've been here for so long
somebody just come and take me where the skies are blue
when you just want to fly away it's the sky blues

Celestial Planes - In Defense of Madness
- Will always hold a sentimental value to me
Voyager - Handbag
- Great for vibe-ing, it really calms you down
Memories - Finding My Way (Back Home)
- Loved that one, tells a great story, the added minors and diminished chords made it really stand out
Rebirth - Sky Blues
- My favorite one so far! Loved the stops between the instruments and vocals!
Thank you for making pony music still. You never cease to amaze♥
They told me not to hold up for a miricle but it came in song form
Scrolling through my older liked videos and stopping to revisit this underappreciated tune. Blues with extra rock mixed in and an ELO-type chorus. Brilliant.
Just came upon this song. Wow. This is amazing.
Ah yes a Replacer song
This is one of few songs I'm absolutely in love with. A timeless piece of art, no less.
I keep coming back to this song and listening to this amazing song. This is one of my favorite songs - but then, I fall in love with pretty much every song replacer makes.
Why do only so few "official" artists make such good musik? I need it on the radio!!!
One of the best songs from Rebirth! ☁
So, I accidentally deleted my original comment (darn mobile app :’D), so if you don’t mind me repeating my praise for this song, I know I certainly don’t mind X3
Your P@D releases have become something of a tradition it seems, and it’s definitely a tradition I look forward to every time EPT announces a new album~ Even now you manage to pack on new surprises tho! P1K on a Replacer song? Now that is sweeeeet >u< brings me back to the days of I’m Daring and The Beatle Bronies.
Awesome work you guys, another slick classy tune :D
Omg an old school Beatle Bronies fan!
Yo, this takes me waaay back in 2012 when that Here Today cover you made was the very very first pony-related song I ever listened to, and I remember even crying back then. Thanks so much for all these years.
Most played song on the album. You two fit perfect together here, such a wonderful piece of music. Love it!
I've been listening to this song for almost a week. Man, it's awesome! My new favourite song!
This is great on so many levels. I love it! Good work both of you
Oh baby that's smooth.
there were plenty of great songs out there on the album, but THIS.
THIS was the selling point to me.
Absolutely love it! A novel sound in the pony fandom, which is always a treat ^-^
It's abundantly clear how much of your heart and soul you two have put into this piece. Keep up the good work.
You're the only reason I care about P@D even a little bit
Replacer, always keeping it fresh! This is such a standout track on Rebirth!
This was definitely my favourite song of Rebirth. Absolutely gorgeous, you two.
My god it just gets better with every listen! One of my new favorites for sure
120% gonna vote this for the top 10 pony songs of March!
I get a kinda War Pigs (Black Sabbath) vibe from how the verses are sung. I like
I got a kinda blues/old school country vibe off this song, only those are usually sad and this is kinda cheerful
This is so amazing, I keep coming back to this song to listen to it again and again
This was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
This song is soooo great TwT
I love every little bit of it
I wish I could play it someday xD
I especially love the lyrics and the chorus is just so perfect 👌👌👌
Nice I love it
wHOA that was so fucking cool. I never would have thought I'd see you two collab again and I'm so so very grateful for that. You guys are one of the best duos
you've got me diggin your tunes since back to subterranean pegasus blues, but man this one and in defense of madness are just...damn
This one is a siiinnnggglllleeee ~
I knew this track by heart after 2 listens that's insane xD
Absolutely amazing once again! Everything you make manages to be so incredibly unique from each other. I never get tired of any of them! Keep up the amazing work!
Loving the duo here. Such a fun song.
Great music. thank you.
gosh, this is AMAZING
Well done y'all! I've listened to your older stuff, but I heard this on a P@D playlist and I truly love the instrumentation here. Big Fallout Equestria vibes here.
Another power talent match up. Incredible.
One of my new favourites of you! Amazing work man
You've only gone and done it again. Instant earworm!
Excellent as always, your music never fails to make my day Replacer! Big fan of P1K as well, so it's awesome to see you two working together! Many thanks, you wonderful blue Pegasus!
Bruh it’s perfection
Woo, new replacer song! Awesome song man.
thank you so much for all these years of music ♥
oh yeah, you swing so hard! :D this song is so great! And fits with you, my blue one ~
great work on it! :D
/)
Always a pleasure to see you on P@D, your songs are always lovely ! And the artwork is cute too ! c":
This was a collaborative effort that I enjoyed immensely! When a song catches your ear on the first listen you know it's great. I'll definitely be looking forward to any future projects you tackle together, should you decide to of course.
THIS IS TOO PERFECT
Uuggghhhh I love your work so much
So good
Both of you guys' vocals are amazing, and the instrumental complements them perfectly
this reminds me of how i dislike this world and i just want to go back to my true home and its nice and cool sounding i like it 3:
I love this :D
catchy
I loved this pretty much instantly, it's so groovy! Also, I never imagined I'd hear P1K on a blues rock song, but I really like his performance here.
he really nailed it, a real joy to mix
Huzza! Another upload from my favorite musician!
For some reason, when I hear "and through the laughter and the moans," I hear "and through the laughter and Le Mans." XD - Great song btw. I could one hundred and twenty percent recommend this to even non-pony people.
Oooohh Yea! OwO
Good stuff man.
Great song
Kind of gives me White Album vibes.
Nice. /)
Hiya, Replacer! How goes it? Thanks for the music!
This dont even sound like a pony song, I feel like I could of heard it on the radio.
Hey hows 2021 going for everyone
Seems like a dumb comment but what genre is that actually?
Replacer still makes horse tunes?
This guy fucks!
This song is not about ponies at all. Are you guys just saying it's a pony song so that the fandom will support the song more?
Cocoa Pen It’s inspired by ponies. The lyrics don’t need to reference ponies specifically for it to be about ponies. If it weren’t for ponies, this song wouldn’t exist.
Oh, we're not claiming it's a song about ponies. Our pony characters are just there to represent us, and to maintain a certain kind of spirit around the music. I personally do this quite a bit.
It's really a song about this strange state that the human condition has reached. Even though the technology that the human race has developed promised to make the world a better place for everyone, it seems to become a contributing factor to division, inequality, conflict, and isolation on an unprecedented scale. People know more than ever about how things work, including the planet, the universe, and even their own bodies, but they seem to understand even less than before.
Okay, that repetitive guitar in the finale, after that... 'hit it' call - it just straightforward sucks.
The rest of this song, however, before that wtf-ending, is pretty good. Just altogether right-sounding.
Boromir Smith Hm, I don’t think it sucked, but it could have changed up eventually.
Thanks for the honest feedback. Ending was intended to be raucous and unmusical, like the band mentioned in the lyrics, can understand why not everyone would enjoy listening to that but I like it for the moment
I know, and I get it, but if I was in that band, playing my instrument next to that guitarist, I think I'd attempt to slap him out of it >.>
Wow, and I loved the ending. A pounding, hard-driving outro to really drive the point home with a great bass line. Reminded me of the Beatles a lot (think Helter Skelter for instance).
