This has got to be one of my favorite songs in the fandom. SGAP really underestimates his ability to write good lyrics and sing. I was listening to "Candlelight" by Relient K and was like OMG I COULD COVER SGAP IN THIS STYLE! So i did!
I use parts from both of his versions (the youtube one: http://youtu.be/mRaZ_SPPVJk, and the Smile Album one). He changes around the chorus in both of them, so I have the Smile chorus lingering in the background and I threw in some verses from the Smile version as well.
Overall, I'm really pleased with how this turned out! I got to have my Dad play acoustic guitar for me (I'm junk with a guitar other than power chords, which don't generally work on an acoustic) and I was able to borrow my grandfather's vintage steel guitar and do a bit of slide work on it!
Anyhoof, it's been a fun time making this! Hope you enjoy! Expect another track soon!

Many a waltz spun awkwardly out of the rain
she was an anxious refrain.
Takin' your time with the imperceptible
Beautiful myths of becoming animal
Wasp to the orchid, orchid to the winter
Regress is to move towards lesser difference.
Memories of a sorceress girl
Endless fascination with the secrets of the world.
Dreams of the youth: those cute, little movements. Darlin',
Emit and combine particles-signs that transform a body into flame.
So, tell me that this love is all we are:
This simple story, this carousel we're on
A little magic, a different kind of spark
Our glassy essence just floating in the dark.
It's how you taught us to conjure up
A little kindness to take inside our hearts.
Our will to power -- together, not apart.
Trace of the Other (a truly modern art).
All that you are and all that you'll be is harmony. You are so silly.
A kind voice, a gentle face,
A friend who vanished without a trace
A blue body, an illusionist on stage... (a new body, without organs just erased)
Twitcha-twitcha, can you stop a moment?
What does Hegel mean by "Absolute Spirit"?
So much love you are!
This is the place for us, the place for us
The place we'd really love, or learn to love
To join our separate lines, to seize and multiply
A dissasembly line extracting from you
Comb your hair, smooth your dress.
Tidy up, smile for us
Take a look, take a breath,
Giddy up, smile for us
So much love you are
So, tell me that this love is all we are:
This simple story, this carousel we're on
A little magic, a different kind of spark
Our glassy essence just floating in the dark.
It's how you taught us to conjure up
A little kindness to take inside our hearts.
Our will to power -- together, not apart.
Trace of the Other (a truly modern art).
All that you are and all that you'll be is harmony. Darlin' walk with me....

It's coming :-P Still not 100% satisfied with the master. Also waiting on art for it.
I hope to get it out before Everfree. If not... well then you'll just have to hear me play it live there!

How the heck did this song only get an honorable mention on Saberspark's Top 10? Needs more views.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel.
Not from a fan fiction. Not from the show. A real person.

Man, this is a really great cover. The genre shift makes it really work, and you did it without changing too much of the melody. The portion of "On My Own" at the end was a delight as well.

This cover is simply stunning. Your voice blends perfectly with the whole song, and the organs at the end were great! Amazing job, my good sir!
