Tiny Valkyries

I'm not really happy with this one. I wanted it to be a small song with big verses, and I got that, but it just... it doesn't really work for me. (I'm not even talking about my performance which is only "done" because it is a FAWM demo.) I may actually like this one the least right now.

The race encountered here comes from a Roger Corman feature.

The album concept (repeated from my bio): This FAWM, I want to write songs for an art album I'm working on. Abstractly, it's an art album about copyright... in the guise of hymn filk. The premise is a lonely space traveler thinks about what might be in store for the colony ship when they get there, but due to copyright restrictions only music made before 1926 is available on-board. So, he combines the two.
