Window Watcher
The Windows Watcher is like listening to Bowie and Riff Raff as they rewrite the Roxie Horror. A Danceable party track, for the club, stage, or screen. The harmonies were a nice touch. One of my favorite Lost Spiders Tunes! A long intro is cool, Perhaps some heavy breathing, or A voice over.., tapping on the window? Rain, thunder? An octave? Once the vocals kicked in, I don’t even remember the intro. Great job on this one! Five Stars! Android

Feel the synth
How to categorize “The Window Watcher”? Metal? Hard Rock? Alternative? Experimental? Stephen has composed a song that tests our ability to label music. Obviously skilled, Stephen Lester’s music uses quality synth riffs and sound effects to enhance the feel. Every sound is a note in Stephen’s world, and “The Window Watcher” is a composition of sounds, rhythms and thoughts that are part of life. Thank you Stephen; for opening up another window into musical art for us. I’m searching for more from Stephen Lester.

Alternative Brit
This song gets me to the deepest underground and explores different acoustics that dare to touch the tuned versus the out of tuned. This is such a brave and rip way of portraying alternative rock music, innovative alternative 100%.

Good song but needs a polish
The backing music is good and solid, lyrics are good - a bit Bowie/Bolan like. Main vocals OK but the backing harmonies feel forced and too much. Saying that the middle bit is quite nice and does sound Bowiesque. It does get better the more you listen to it but I would like to hear this again if it is re-done with more polished backing singing.

The Window Watcher
This track is nice. Nice classic rock beat in the background. Has a little bit of Tom sawyer, The Cars mix type sound. Vocals, lyrics and transition were on point. Vocals and lyrics remained in sync and on tempo with the beat throughout the track. Nothing negative to add. Good work!

Great guitar track
Inn b like the song. It starts off with a crazy heavy guitar and then morphs into 80’s new wave feel, vocals reminded me of Bowie. The track is probably a demo... I see where it can go. It just needs a better mix and maybe some work on arrangement and song length. Overall it is a unique song for this time of life. I look forward to hearing more from this group

Nice melody and feel
Intro is a slight variation on the Peter Gunn theme if you're old enough to know that series. The lyrics could be clearer to go with the slightly spooky feel. I like the melody. Needs a bit of a cleaner recording. Overall, I like it. Just needs a few things here and there. Good vocal, just needs to be a bit clearer.

Rock On
This piece started off giving a mixture of David then went into Talking Heads back to Bowie. It was a interesting journey to say the least. It didn't make me want to turn it off even though I took issue with the way the vocals were mixed. Over all I can honestly say I enjoyed the ride. ROCK ON!

Energy
Live the energy of this, the consistency of the music is dope, and that under lay like you’re on the enterprise ship.. and the hook is decent .. the vocals can be cleaned up a little better than what it is currently, the pre hook is a good lead.. I wonder what fans feel like listening to this live, I think it’ll be a vine for sure.. keep creating and keep giving your best, there’s that complete song coming fully to you.

Hi
I do not know to say..simply put it all is not so great..ok.. forget the intro.. cut it out.. take out that some computer soud.. make a good vocal where the Band is in Tune..recording quality sound like a garage recording.. My question to You is .. Do You Really Think this is a Great Song..so if the answer is no..what You think Music Publisher will say..any how..SEND IT OUT AND DO not be surprised if the answer is NO..( if they ever will write back).. good luck but I do hope that one day You will record a GREAT Song..

Peter Gunn Again
A long 3-note repeated Peter Gunn-like intro, next enter a Bowie.-Nick Cave monotone chant. Loses the beat sometimes, and attempts at being on key. Perhaps a bit over-produced but I can see you seeking your own voice will be part of the journey.

Hello
The intro is not only to long but also boring..any how what You have here is a "demo" in progress..for sure You need to chage an arrangement and be good if The Vocal part is in Tune..recording quality also need to be much better..remember Music Publishers and Radio Stations take Only Radio Ready Recordings and this song is not on that level..abut is not important what I like or what I think send It out andsee what will happen.. but I got a feeling that THEY will agree with me.. Good Luck..

Creative sounding Rock
Yeah - that rocks! The ruff distortioned guitar sound and powerful drums puts one immediately into the right mood. The song is accompanied by routinely played rock-guitar and modulated synth sounds. The engaging lyrics feel like a story. Stephen Lester as vocalist makes a great job and brings with his unique vocals special feel into the song. The chorus is the message and makes the meaning of the song engaging for me. But the whole song is more various. Imaginative transitions increasing the arrangement and is an extra factor. This song is from a Band who understand what´s good rock-music is about. Well mixed and overall good mastered recording. Powerful song influenced by alternative and progressive rock is worth to listen and I´m sure you like to add it. Let others know your recommendation.
