The Robert Taylor Incident, a.k.a. Livingston Incident or Dechmont Woods Encounter is the name given to claims of sighting an extraterrestrial spacecraft on Dechmont Law in Livingston, West Lothian, Scotland in 1979 by forester Robert "Bob" Taylor (1919–2007).
When Taylor returned home from a trip to Dechmont Law dishevelled, his clothes torn and with grazes to his chin and thighs, he claimed he had encountered a "flying dome" which tried to pull him aboard. Due to his injuries, the police recorded the matter as a common assault and the incident is popularly promoted as the "only example of an alien sighting becoming the subject of a criminal investigation"
I wrote this song for a project for my uni course, however, I am looking to record this track fully in a studio in the next few weeks, this is the demo I did in my home to get the feel of it. Anything that you hear could be improved or that doesn't feel right please let me know your thoughts.
Good song… I love your vocals and the melody is so catchy in both the verse and chorus.

Very cool! Yes i like the 80s rock vibe. You could even add some more vocals at the end (repeat “somewhere in the stars” in the lead vocal, going a bit higher). Great tune and cool story.

cool guitars,,like the pedal steel in the background adding a nice pad, adds a nice fullness to the feel vs just a guitar only.
also nice vocals

Ordinary time in 79,
A peaceful day in the countryside,
Looking around everything was alright,
Hindsight said I should have walked away,
From the silhouette, I saw that day,
I didn't think id be in a fight,
What we're looking for is a million miles away,
from where we all are,
What we're looking for
is where all the answers lay
somewhere in the stars.
They came at me in such a rush,
I didn't have time to think that much,
Standing there with nowhere to hide,
I was thrown around pushed and pulled,
Frozen not knowing, what to do,
Through it, all Lara was right by my side,
What we're looking for is a million miles away,
from where we all are,
What we're looking for
is where all the answers lay
somewhere in the stars.

I really like the chorus! Great melody reminds of an old 80$ rock ballad in way
