something that popped into my mind while climbing stairs of a hospital

edit may 21 2008- After reading some reviews here, i think i should write some explanations about this tune.
Is an old project, the melody popped into my mind in the summer of 2003 when i was taking care of my ex wife. I was climbing the stairs to her room after i found out that she have cancer, so, i guess that's why this is not really a happy song ...
I stayed with this tune in my mind for one year, i was busy with other things, not having time and will do make music.
Thanx for listening, i hope the story will not make you too sad.
As one of the reviews say "now you've made me afraid of walking up hospital stairsl" , well, i hope you'll never have to.
Stay healthy and happy (also rich if you can).

"Awesomeness. Pure. Downright. :)"

;o I take it money might've been a problem with what happened to your ex-wife? If you don't mind my asking of course. I'm really sorry about your loss. This is a very, very good song. Inspiring even, and can be used for many different sad and scary pieces. It definitly has the overtone of death, I think. Death, despair, a touch of hopelessness. Something like that, I think. :o This was one of the good things that can seep through the cracks embedded in the baddness of a situation such as yours. :l I might check out your other music later, no guarantees. :) I just happened to see this while I was looking for music, and I'm really glad the title caught my eye. :P My vote might not be worth as much as some people's... >,> Lol. But it's still worth something, and I hope my review is as well. I'm a bit of a movie maker. I might use this in something I'm currently working on, as well as two long-term projects I have in the works. :)

You can descirbe many things, like the other fellas said, And I'm agree with them, But you can imagine, many thins only hearing this track, WOW, I'm impressed.

This can enter perfectly in a movie, or in a game perhaps, But anyway, I'm not scary, I'm happy, for this masterpiece you made. Sounds pretty good, hope you have others. See ya everybody.

"Lovely and haunting."

date: May 26, 2008

I do admire songs that give this feeling. The backstory to this adds all the more impact to the piece. It's wonderful that people can express themselves through music as well as other types of art, and so vividly too. I suppose I could only do that effectively in writing. Through this, I can imagine the pain you felt in the moments as you ascended those stairs.

I close my eyes, and I can picture myself walking up dark stairs. It feels like gravity is certainly working against me, as it seems each step that I take is a thousand pounds heavier than the last. That's what I see in my mind when I hear this. Am I on the right track? I love music that allows me to do that. It unlocks a new door of imagination and it is very inspiring.

I do love the instruments used, and the way they were coalesced into this piece. It's a lovely mixture.

Of coure, I'm no music critic so I cannot use the same words or names those who are musicaly inclined can. I'd like to say some things I think are correct, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Forgive me for that. I am a picky critic, and as much as I'd like to give it a 10, I must give it a 9, as I was entranced by the music itself, with its sad, haunting spell, but it just didn't meet my standards one hundred percent. It's excellent though, don't read me wrong. I only review music that allows me to comfortably write to. When I'm in this mood when driven by music, I tend to write a lot, so forgive the length of this review. I'll certainly look at your other pieces. Hopefully, they'll grant the same charm.

Ciao, please continue composing~
