Brilliant closing track to their newest album!
Distant Voyageur | Io | 06/16/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)
"This song entitled "Following the Sun" is the counterpart to the opening track called "From East To West" and brings the album "Voyageur" to an excellent conclusion. Following the instrumental track "The Piano", this song starts with a sweet melody that merges into a hazy and haunting melody and then after sweet sounding distant harmonicas, the song becomes a highly sunny and intense track that reminds me of "Return to Innocence" as it has a very similar atmosphere to it: Sunny, innocent, and uplifting. The climax is amazing. Afterwards, the bright climax gives way to a hazy sunset feel that dissolves into a creepy, mysterious and even scary ending where the distant ambient ending almost sounds like the sounds of early Delerium."
