Story Behind The Song
The story reflects around a girl that is wishing her dreams away and the 'Sandman" is warning her to start to listen to them - very fictional. We are both pleased on how the vocals come over bringing a very different laid back sound that would be good for thought provoking films/TV scenes.
Song Description
Tight rhythmn and cool bass beats mark the sound.Sandman is a very laid back sound in a 'Japan" style mood of voice. Gideon Blue being a fan of their music, being a bit reminiscent to 80s imaginative Goth/Alternative sounds, has tried to add vocals and lyrics that match the mood of each song.
