Please give the song a full listen before voting! And let me know what you do or don't like about it, and I'll make sure to get back to all of your comments.

The song picks up, and is intentionally slow at the start.

**edit: I EQ'd the song a little more based off of the input I got, and also raised certain parts of the song an octave higher, as I thought it made the song flow a little smoother. Let me know what you think!

"Real Amazing"

by: Venom59

date: September 9, 2009

Second song I've heard from you. Very amazing. This for me is a different kind of trance and it's very relaxing to hear. I wonder if you will be creating another version with lyrics like Land Locked. Kudos to you! Privilege voting and reviewing.

Thank you so much for the kind words. It means a lot! There is a version of this song that I have that has lyrics. They're not vocoded at all. It's a slower BPM, with less interesting instruments. This is actually a sort of Remix of that song. PM me your email, and I can send it to you, if you wish!

Thanks for the review! The original song I made had lyrics, and was a lot slower. This ones sort of an instrumental remix.

"Hours of searching..."

by: TranceCreations

date: August 10, 2009

I spend almost 3 hours searching for the perfect song for the video I was putting together. Finally, I came across Sapphire Tears and I knew it was the song.

I hope you don't mind me using it. I gave you credit and posted a link to your newgrounds profile.

"Energetic, yet relaxing."

by: Rashem

date: August 8, 2009

I've heard songs like this that made you sad, energetic, happy, angry, ect. But, this is the first I've ever heard that has made me relaxed as well as energetic. Its like the song just flows into you and calms you down while filling you with energy. This is a song I could listen to all day. You are defiantly one of the best authors I've heard in a long long time.

Thanks for the review! This is actually the oldest song I've made that I'm willing to share with newgrounds. It's over 3 years old. There's a lot of work that could be done on this song, but they're all just subtle changes, I think. I'm glad you liked me song, and thanks for such a great review! I'm always trying to make songs that are original in every way I can do it.

"This is pretty damn intense."

by: zweetboi

date: July 29, 2009

Loud, too. I don't know exactly when it "picked up", but I couldn't care, the melody took over. Very spacey, as one said down below. It's a very... guilty-sounding piece, if you know what I mean.
I can feel the emotions... thanks for a great 5:14.

thanks for a great review!

This one was one of my first pieces in reason 3.0. It's not magnificently EQ'd but I'm more than happy with the composure, and arrangement. I hope you check out some of my other stuff too!
