Challenge

Must feature a guest who has never been in a Nur Ein song before.

Balance Lost with Dan Clarke aka Sailing Magpie on guest vocals

Cannons crashing drowning out the waves
Nausea is making me homesick again

We have a job
Can't leave until it's done

I have a dream of seeing
My family someday
I have a dream of going
Back to Byron Bay

Unforgiving winds, atop these clouds I want to leave
Duller than the colour of the stripes on my captains sleeve

We have a job
Can't leave until it's done

I have a dream of seeing
My family someday
I have a dream of going
Back to Byron Bay
I have a dream of seeing
My family someday
Gallipoli's a million
Miles from Byron Bay

High quality as usual - but not wining level

Very catchy chorus - I especially like the scansion. When the full arrangement kicks in, something saturates the mix badly. I think it might be the kick drum. In the choruses, something sounds like it's causing the whole mix to clip 1-2 times per second, and it's difficult to concentrate on anything else when that's happening. I do like the historical angle on the lyrics, and the synth/guitar break. I had this higher in my original rankings, but the more I listened, the more the compression issues annoyed me. I couldn't get over it.
