(This is one of the trance-heavy tracks in my concept set, “Dance Dance Revolutionary” (I aspire the first six tracks to have trance elements but also are heavily influenced by Europop and J-Pop influences)

“Gegenschein” is German for “counterglow”, and is also a cosmological term for any faint brightening of the night sky directly opposite of the Sun, reflected by interplanetary dust.

I thought this title was perfect for a track like this because it is representative of the joy of gleaming not just as an individual, but also having the ability to reflect the light from the heavens across the universe for all to feel and behold, and what better way to do it then show the world what you’re all about, whether through dance, art or song? )

Gegenschein
(Part Of: “Dance Dance Revolutionary”)
By: Noah Eaton
12/1/06

Avert your vision,
beyond assumptions of mediocrity,
envision the cosmic evolution,
a maximum overdrive feeling of identity,
ride a broomstick into an event horizon,
feel your heartbeat treble beyond the lithosphere,
we were born to be anointed in the moonlight,
more than once in a lunar year.

Open your eyes,
only you know what you can see,
in the dark nights of the brightest dreamers,
possibilities are scattered endlessly…

Witch doctors of the rising sun,
stylize their aurora circus in absolute magnitude,
glitter our bodies in remnants of the supernovas,
so we can see our spirits soar at limitless altitudes,
trampolining upon the eyelashes of the sun,
vaulting back across the fingertips of the galaxy,
exposing ourselves so all can see,
all that we are destined to be…

Open your eyes,
only you know what you can see,
in the dark nights of the brightest dreamers,
possibilities are scattered endlessly…

(Bend your mind,
into maximum overdrive,
at light’s velocity,
feed your curiosity,
happy hardcore galore,
come on up to the fore,
you’re on the Hayashi track,
now go and dance that chance!)

Open your eyes,
only you know what you can see,
in the dark nights of the brightest dreamers,
possibilities are scattered endlessly…



"If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other"

Mother Teresa

Noah, I would love to hear you
sing this one...or just read it...
whichever works best.

It's beautiful!

Danka!
