My own version of a fabulous song about tolerance, by my favourite Swedish Prog/Rock band...The Flower Kings

Pop/Rock, Psychedelic, Ambient, Rhythm & Blues and beyond.
Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
I've always liked this song by The Flower Kings, but have never been confident enough to attempt one of their songs up until now. I hope you enjoy it.
Lyrics
Different People by The Flower Kings (Roine Stolt) I saw them coming from the mountains. I saw them coming from the sea. I heard them speak in coded language But I could not find a key. I heard them whisper: "any colours". I heard them sing in every tree. I saw them dancing in the mainstream, Say they got something for me. Different people Different ways of living Different colours Different ways of giving I saw them dancing in the mainstream I saw them kissing butterfly's Handing out flowers in the morning All before my very eyes I heard them talk about the future I saw them turning to the skies I watched them dance around the teapot Like a major lullaby I saw them coming from the mountains I saw them coming from the sea I heard them talk in coded language But I could not find a key

This has a late sixties vibe to me, never heard the original but you did such a nice job on this, it's quirky melodic and very listenable,well done mate.

This is a totally new listening experience for me, I'm not very familiar with the Flower Kings, so my ears won't be influenced by the original recording. The first thing that struck me is all the work that must have gone into the production and performance. There are many different parts and aspects to this song and I can't imagine how you managed to reproduce all of them! Superb pro-sounding recording, excellent work on all the instruments and great vocals. Very impressive!!
