At our Berlin Solstice event we sung Brighter than Today and played https://humanistculture.bandcamp.com/track/brighter-than-today in the background. We noticed that the complexity of that recording is higher than the version that was actually song at the last solstice for which there’s a public recording of the whole solstice event.
It would be great to have the a youtube version of the sing along version (at best with the song text).
Apologies for this. The issue is that getting a professional recording is a lot of work, and the existing new recordings are somewhat sketchy live recordings that I feel awkward about charging money for on bandcamp and would feel slightly weird to sing along to on youtube.
I have the 2016 version here on soundcloud, where I put my unfinished works. (This is the final canonical version, although this recording has some mistakes)
I also have a version that sounds good… but uses an unauthorized background instrumental track I didn’t create myself. I tried to get permission to use it but the creator didn’t let me. I think it’s fine to pass around unofficially but not to put on youtube or to use at events that charge money. (I actually paid for the rights to use the instrumentals in “a movie” but they specifically denied authorization to use it to create a formal new song). A version with me singing-of-moderate-quality (but with weird cars driving by in the background) is here. A purely instrumental version is here.
