It's a good start to a song, for sure. Regarding your request for advice... It seems that not only is the same melody repeated, but the chord progression is the same throughout. If you know what key you are in, you can drop the chords for a while and experiment with different intervals for the piano melody. Or you could change up some of the chords for others which benefit the key and movement, and then play the melody to go with those new chords. Sometimes even simple changes can make a big impact on a melody as well... Going in and simply deleting certain notes can give an openness, and a slight shift in rhythm. Transposing certain notes can also make an impact, often without destroying the feel of the melody. I get a noticeable difference by, for example, selecting the lowest notes in the melody and transposing them up an octave or two, or selecting the highest notes of the melody and dropping them an octave or two. My best advice is to not let yourself be constrained by a chord structure, but to hear the nuances of the note intervals, and draw emotion from it. Sometimes changing one or two notes in a line can have a drastic effects on the listener! Finally, there is the very simple option of changing what sound is playing the melody at certain points. It will change the impression while keeping the theme. Hope those help a bit! I enjoyed the song so far!

And here it is a "nightingale" singing in an unknown language (Aalle Elvish) in a fairytale world... Many thanks to Lesperado and Elven voice for this wonderful acapella ! (Please see lyrics in English).
This track, which I had uploaded last year too, required some extensive retouching. I hope you like it !

Description : After many long sessions, this project is finally finished. It ended up becoming a cyberpunk industrial powerhouse. If you're a fan of older industrial, hopefully you will like how this turned out.

Description : Hi, I blend into the most peculiar places, I can catch food from long distant places. My eyes can look in different directions as I orchestrate different manifestations from these drums and sound, as I make my eyes go around, I'm the Chameleon you found, so it seems...

Description : This fragment, tells you a little story about me. Before iam going to upload something again. Its been a while since i was here. But somehow i never forgotten about this place. Because in the early days of looperman. This was my place to be as well. And somehow it will always remain a soft spot within me. And yeah it was probably time for me to return back to this place anyways. And see what happend and changed here all together throughout the times. when i left the place some while ago.

Description : Beneath moonlight, men become bolder, braver, foolisher, more themselves than they dare be beneath any watching sun.

I understand this pull well, pleasures I would never confess to seeking, temptations the day's judgment kept politely caged.

There is joy in it too, I'll admit, laughter sharper, drink sweeter, desire honest for once. But the night that liberates also loosens what should stay bound.

Every dawn, someone wakes wondering which version of themselves the dark set free.
