Artist's Comments
It happens in the electronic world where everything is measured, too - there is an ever-present feeling of competition against each other. But you are not your pageviews, comments or the number of Favourites you get - what matters most is how you are as a person. If you concentrate only on the numbers that make up your popularity, then you're not truly yourself.
The dreaded P-word comes up again here, as you could say that this is slightly pop-like, being upbeat and happy, though I've used a couple of time changes to try and keep things interesting - you could say there's a bit of Stratovarius's older style in here. The introduction has a brief chiptune-like section, and at the end, there's the first fadeout I've ever done. Normally I don't like these because I've always thought that they seemed to be a way around writing a real ending, but it somehow seemed appropriate here. - DavidN

Song #88 - Be More Than Just a Number Track 2 of "Machine World" Written by David K Newton Completed on 16/6/2007 Length: 5 minutes 42 seconds davidknewton_gmail.com http://wired.st-and.ac.uk/~wong/modsite/ --- Do you remember how we used to be A time with nothing in our way We knew who we were, and life was ahead We thought forever it would stay But then we changed We turned against ourselves To prove our worth above the rest A race began You don't know where to run Beginnings of this lifetime fight To become number one Be more than just a number Don't let them win and take your life away Remember your name, and be your own mind Because you know there's so much more to be You're so much more than just a number to me And they'll attack you with their thoughts of you Using their strength to make you fear They're trying to make you their number But don't give in when they appear Without life, without love You're just an empty heart Before you know what's happening You don't know who you are One above the others A mark against your skin Is that all it means to you Be more than just a number Don't let them win and take your life away Remember your name, and be your own mind Because you know there's so much more to be You're so much more than just a number to me What happened to the life we used to have The friendship we had before We let the spirit come and take our lives away Replaced with this endless war And the lives we knew can be rebuilt again If we stop chasing the sun For the first is still a number And if you run there, they have won Be more than just a number Don't let them win and take your life away Remember your name, and be your own mind Because you know there's so much more to be Be more than just a number Don't let them win and take your life away Remember your name, and be your own mind Because you know there's so much more to be To rise from your sadness and bring back your life You're so much more than just a number to me

Very good metal in a very melodic way! Nice samples as ever and very good composition! I like the way you compose your songs!
