Another outstanding effort from you!
Handshake, Danke
I wanted to say it was more experimental than weird, but you work with what you have. Glad you enjoy these celestial vibes.

Here comes The Nomad!
Jaunty stuff here. Piano sound is a bit thin for me but then I'm very particular about piano sounds as there are lots I don't like.
0:23 powerful, low end fill before the drums enter.
0:55 there's a problem (a bit of a clash) with the ending of that lead instrument and the arrival of your voice. You could just lower the instrument's level.
Good first pair of lines (the lyrics).
Ah no - I got it wrong. I thought you sang "I feel I was enough for you". That might be a better opening line but feel free to disagree. Or agree entirely, go back and re-record it and give me a writing credit!
1:14 vocals effects are good.
1:38 the same. Very nice. Possibly a vocoder.
3:15 pluckery is effective but maybe go without the pad in the background. Or lower its volume.
Final ending is possibly a bit abrupt, should continue for 8 bars or so longer. A bit like what Mr E said. But that's only a minor quibble.
Otherwise, more of your quite distinctive, personal songwriting that's pretty well delivered.
This is kind of alternative pop music that would chart if someone like Morrissey made it.

voice is outstanding as I wrote many times...I'm the fan of your dark/melancholic tune in your singing which isn't a biggest smile on your face :-) but it's unique, specially here...

Well, ain't this some happy shit! But it's the kind of happy shit I really like. I love happy sounding music with dark and twisted lyrics. This is just great! Mix seems fine. No real complaints.
3:15 pluckery is fantastic. The ending section is a real highlight. Fadeout seems like it should be more gradual, with lyrics continuing through the fade. Thats all I can add. I really enjoyed this. I dig the sense of humor.
Take care.

Your voice is very quickly quite recognisable, as is often the case.
0:34 synth is cool and right up Cru's street as it's early 80s synth pop (Ultravox?), in a good way. Kind of trippy and beautiful.
That synth part breaks up your verses nicely.
1:12 nice funky little synth. Makes me think of certain violin/cello parts from popular songs.
1:47 aha now you come in with your simple chorus line on top of the interesting, wailing synth. Simple and effective.
2:23 haha - very 80s toms there. Your drums have a good groove. MT Powerdrums is hardly the best bit of drum software but it sounds just fine here.
A neat little ending.
No real criticisms from me. It's just a good little song. And not dark at all, which is kind of interesting.
Glad you like it. Thanks again.

You may like the song "The Creature Lives" by Mastodon. Equally quirky. It's about sympathizing with the stigmatized creature from the black lagoon.
I'm not a massive fan of Mastodon. I usually prefer Floyd, Rush, Porcupine Tree or Coheed & Cambria... but this is a great track. Simple but EPIC! Thanks for pointing me to it :)

We thought Van Helsing was lurking about waiting to jump us!
Spot on with the MT Powerdrums, I see you've been honing your skills as a psychic.
Happy Halloween Pkat :)

Ciao,
M.
Glad to hear that the mix worked well on your surround sound. Mine have been massively playing up, so a lot of my mixing is done using monitor headphones at the moment.
THanks for the feedback.
