| The World's Best Skylines - Part 1/2 |
 |
NOTICE: This video showcases the top 50 of
the world's best skylines. This list is an
attempt to rank the impressiveness of city
skylines. The score of a city is equal to the
sum of all building heights (in m, without
spires) after substraction of the minimum of
90m/295ft for each building. Freestanding
towers (i.e. thin structures with no floors
over most of their height) count for half
their height.
It measures a mix of height and breath of a
skyline which seems to be honest as they are
both important for the WOW! factor. Of
course, people may think differently about
their favorite skylines
This years biggest surprise is Dubai is on
#3, with Burj Dubai going up until it will
reach a staggering 810 m. The Persian Gulf
counries in general continue to boom, along
with China and most the rest of asia, with
too many cities to name. London and Moscow
are are the strongest growers in Europe;
Panama City in Latin America; Miami, Chicago
and Las Vegas in the USA. The Freedom Tower
in NYC finally began construction after a
long delay.

| Sepia Skylines - Fred Baty (Crepusculum) |
 |
The last one for tonight. This is my latest
(and most unnecessarily ambitious) song,
called 'Sepia Skylines'. It will probably be
coming out in the near future on the Sky
Diaries Remix EP, which is a joint venture
between the 12rec and Zymogen netlabels. I'm
really, really pleased with it as a song, but
it is insanely hard to nail all of the
rhythms correctly, so every recording I have
yet made of it is slightly iffy. This video
isn't bad, but there are places where it
could be better. Ah well, I hope you enjoy
it. It's cheesy, but I like it. Peace.

You're not in this alone
Let me break this awkward silence
Let me go, go on record
Be the first to say I'm sorry
Hear me out,
And if you take me down
Or would you lay me out
And if the world needs something better
Let's give them one more reason now, now, now
We walk in single file
We light our rails and punch our time
Ride escalators colder than a cell
[Chorus]
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
stolen from my eyes
Hello Angel, tell me where are you
Tell me where we go from here
[x2]
Tell me we go from...
And in this moment we can't close the lids on
burning eyes
Our memories blanket us with friends we know
like fallout vapors
Steel corpses stretch out towards an ending
sun, scorched and black
It reaches in and tears your flesh apart
As ice cold hands rip into your heart
That's if you've still got one that's left
inside that cave you call a chest
And after seeing what we saw, can we still
reclaim our innocence
And if the world needs something better,
let's give them one more reason now
[Chorus]
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
stolen from my eyes
Hello Angel, tell me where are you
Tell me where we go from here
[x2]
Tell me we go from here
