Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
Just anyone, no one
Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
An alien, an alien
You took all the birds, and then you sent me away
You took all our friends, and added them to your band
The seventies records, you drove them away in a cab
The vintage television, gone as well
Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
Just anyone, no one
Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
An alien, an alien
Your parents felt vindicated, always found me a waste
Must be the music thing, always called it the devil's spell
Your sister sold the necklace, that I bought for her in Japan
The neighbor was conflicted, and so was gail
Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
Just anyone, no one
Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
An alien, an alien
Look what I've become
Look what I've, look what I have become
An alien (I'm an alien in America)
An alien (I'm an alien in America)
An alien (I'm an alien in America)
An alien (Oh)
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
Just anyone, no one
Look now what I've become
Someone from another space and time
Look now what I've become
An alien, an alien

This is so good.
Thanks William for bringing it to our ears.

The intro to this song is the best part. And the title is wonderful.
What a wonderful song - it's amazing how you enable me to always get to know new artists - that is one of the greatest things of RadioParadise - a journey of discovery in the world of albums and artists! Thanks
Gorgeous song, otherworldly voice.
I kinda like his dance in the music video, too 
Just gets better with every hearing...
had to be a hellava switch to move from Kenya to Minneapolis. Tis a bit chilly there compared. Props to him (though I hates the Minneapolis, but oh well)
An easy 8!
I had to stop and check out who this performer was and when I saw his picture, it hit me that I had done this a number of times before and I need to buy his music!
Love the voice. Lots of songs are good.
His voice is a gift that keeps giving. 💚
Every once in awhile a new (to me) singer comes along whose voice is so unique (to me) and appealing (to me) that I gravitate to them and want to hear more of what they have to offer. J.S. Ondara checks all these boxes.
And once again I have RP to thank for this introduction.
I could also duplicate my opening statement, substituting "singer - J.S. Ondara" with "radio station - RP" to express my sentiments. That's why I make a monthly payment, and encourage people I know and meet to check out this fabulous station.

Cool intro. Cool song.
He’s pure magic. xx
More J.S. Ondara! Been hoping to hear more played here.
I'm not big on the atmospheric intro. Another edit: I'm getting used to it. When the singing gets going, I think it's nice. 6 from me for now.
Edit: This is the guy who sings "Lebanon?" I like that song a lot.

Thanks for adding more of his music!

I rarely ever get chills listening to a song, but this one did it to me.
