M-One and Cyril - Absolution Comes in Dreams

From the depths of amazing comes the greatest collaboration since the last one that M-One did!

This is a cover/rearrangment (dare I say remix?) of the song off of the wonderful Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) OST (Click here for the original) called "Dreams of an Absolution" which is the theme from the "new" hedgehog named Silver. It really is an awesome tune, and we both enjoyed creating this for you folks. The lyrics, are the original lyrics.

Back in July 2008, I was being plagued by Dreams of an Absolution being stuck in my head. A few days later, though I was talking to Matthew about the fact that he owed me a song, and I instantly thought of a doing this, becuase this song could really benefit from both his voice and his amazing wealth of instruments. So, I showed him the original song and he was hooked, soon enough I had a nice live percussion part on my computer. The vocals took awhile, 4 months to be exact, but I finally got them, and placed them in the mix. Then Matt took the liberty of mastering it as well. Very polished for something that just started as a selfish little way to get a song out of my head.

This collaboration is the result of days after days of hard work. Though I must admit, we did have a near 4 month period of doing nothing, due to me being overly critical about my voice and not actually sending them to Connor until I re-did it. Though once that was out of the way, I gradually started to really love this version. All the acoustic-ness and groove sets me going and singing along. I would have more to say about this song, but I am currently speechless. I just hope that you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed performing and collaborating with Connor.

Lyrics!
In the night-light, do you see what you dream?
All your troubles, are they all what they seem?
Look around you, then you may realize
All the creatures saw with the light.

And I might know of our future,
But then, you still control the past.
Only you know if you'll be together.
Only you know if we shall last!

In the night-light, do you still feel your pain?
For the valor you waited, never came!
If you were able, would you go change the past?
There's a furball with one last chance!

And I might know of our future,
But then you still control the past.
Only you know if you'll be together,
Tonight!

Cause every night I will save your life!
And every night I will be with you!
Cause every night I still lay awake,
And I dream of an absolution!

Cause every night I will make it right!
And every night I will come to you!
But every night it just stays the same,
In my dream of an absolution!

In the night-light, do you see what you dream?
All your triumph, and all you'll ever be?
Look around you, then you may realize,
Happiness lies trapped in misery!

And who knows what of our future?
We can all try to change the past.
Only you know if you'll be together,
Tonight!

Cause every night I will save your life!
And every night I will be with you!
Cause every night I still lay awake,
And I dream of an absolution!

'Cause every night I will make it right!
And every night I will come to you!
But every night it just stays the same,
In my dream of an absolution!
