Starship Velociraptor = anime intro, 10, 000 Light Years = anime outro

[CalebHyles]

My personal favorite from the album ❤ and wait, is this

[coffeelemon]

We are so close to having all the songs get these fantastic music videos. Can't wait to see what comes next.

[nik]

Starship Velociraptor is the gift that keeps on giving. And this animation is top tier

[iInflate]

If you and Volta made this into an anime series, I'd binge the hell out of it over and over! Love Volta's art style and you're amazing with your vocals as always! Hope we get to see more expansion into this universe you've all created! Love it!

[christopherbrummet]

Starship Velociraptor might be my favourite, but this song has such fantastic feels, I can't listen to them apart anymore. You really are on the cusp of creating a Rock Opera Album on the scope and quality of the Protomen here, and I can't wait for the next bit of the story/music man

[HungryPunkr]

Holy hell what a killer video. Big props to the animator and as always Jonathan always kills it

[MrGoesBoom]

Damn, super kudos to the animator, they really captured that super detailed old school anime look

[majorwolfgang]

Couldn't find the lyrics so here ya go, sing away

Wish I had met that girl before
I signed my life away off-world
When I didn't have a reason to be alive

Now she's so far from me, stuck on Alpha Centauri
And I'm out here with a broken hyperdrive
I'm a lost and lonely outlaw sailing on the starry sea
I would sell my sorry soul to bring my baby back to me

10, 000 Light-Years away
She's my guiding star
After every hurricane

She's like the sun's shining rays
Even from so far, pulling on my heart
Her gravity remains

If I could turn back time to when
I could hold her hand in mine
I would find some excuse just not to leave

Five years since I've left port
And I'm running low on life support
Yeah but, that's not the reason I can't breathe

It's a lonely night in hell aboard this broken privateer
I would brave a hundred-thousand more to taste her atmosphere

10, 000 Light-Years away
She's my guiding star after every hurricane
She's like the sun's shining rays
Even from so far, pulling on my heart
Her gravity remains

10, 000 Light-Years away
She's my guiding star after every hurricane
She's like the sun's shining rays
Even from so far, pulling on my heart
Her gravity remains

[CainMaster]

I remember listening to the album when it first came out, hearing this song for the first time and crying. My girlfriend and I are in a long distance relationship, and this song really cut to the core of loving someone but feeling the loneliness of them being away from you for reasons you can't control. "Her gravity remains" might be one of the favorite lyrics on the entire album, and damn it's a great album. Thanks for the amazing music Jon ❤

[FloridaMann]

"I'm running low on life supoort.

Yeah, but thats not the reason I cant breathe."

Damn, what a banger of a line for a space opera power ballad.

[voltanimation]

Bring back old anime. Or I will have to do it myself.

[iseeflash]

Love this song so much
In my opinion it’s the most underrated from the whole album

[ZinBionic]

I like to believe that shes somewhere out there lost. And he continues to look for her with the help of Jonathan

[samhilson]

I genuinely hope your next album involving these characters is a literal space opera. Am loving the songs, the animation and want to know more of the lore. This gives me Cowboy Bebop vibes and I'm loving it!

[dataloop]

My favorite part of this 3:29 was when she is bringing out the receipt. It said the tip is non optional, he wrote: Ideas can't be defended without power - LOL make me ;P

[Tronoid]

Synopis for potential series :
Starhip Velociraptor follows the story of Hato, a young very energized girl, who in a twist of luck, ends up crossing the fates of the Galactic Kraken crew. Which on the surface appears as a harmless hard rock band. But she soon discovers that the band is but a cover, for in reality they are a very skilled and fearless crew of pirates for hire. Which, between two heists. Sell their special set of skills to the highest bidder. And so, becoming a fresh new member of the Starship's Velociraptor crew, Hato's previous safe and dull life as a salary-girl is replaced by a life of thrill, dangers, Hard Rock, and adventure. Journeying trough out the galaxy, at the speed of light.

Who would have expected some of the best original space opera content we'd gotten in years was from a music album?

[Xparkman]

And the fact this still hasnt been announced as a full anime yet should be tried as breaking every geniva convention...

[seankim]

Gotta love how the animated music videos for Jonathan's Starship Velociraptor have an incredibly 80s-00s anime style. It just melds so well with the music!

Also, I hate and love that 4 minute music videos make me more invested than full length films or TV shows.
