Wai-- wha--?

Put simply, I find this arrange unexpected (I probably should have expected it). If I didn't look up the original, I probably wouldn't be able to recognize it. Actually, I can hardly pick up on it still, but considering I hardly listen to Voyage 1969 or its arranges, I guess it's understandable for me.
King Aswad is the first fellow that I've heard sing English that I can easily pick up and understand within the Touhou realm (not counting fandubs). I'm sure there's been some other people that's done it as well but he's the first I've heard. Now that I look more into it, is it the same King Aswad?

He has another song in the album, but I found it too repetitive for my personal tastes.
Funk and R&B album (I think... I'm no good with genres). Can't say anything about recommending it since I haven't quite developed my taste in the genre.

I had nothing for imagery other than some guy performing on stage. How boring is that?

Lyrics (I can attempt to add it via annotations if you like)

I had a dream
That I could be all I could be
And I would travel overseas
They would greet me as a king
Then I would be given wings
So the world could hear me sing
Spread the joy that music brings
Make my dreams come true

Dragonflies and flying saucers
All the things that you can think of
When you close your eyes and use your mind
Reaching with imagination
Feel your heart beat inspiration
Open up the window to your soul

Now it's time to pick and choose
Who I really want to be
I'll pick and choose the better me
Not for sheik or shape or shine
But for strength spirit in mind through time
Dreams come true

Dragonflies and flying saucers
All the things that you can think of when you close your eyes and use your mind
Reaching with imagination
Feel your heart beat inspiration
Open up the window to your soul

Perception, protection
No question, my weapon
The lesson, intellection
Injection, imagination

Dragonflies and flying saucers
All the things that you can think of
When you close your eyes and use your mind
It will free your soul

Dragonflies and flying saucers
All the things that you can think of
When you close your eyes and use your mind
Reaching with imagination
Feel your heart beat with inspiration
Open up the window to your soul
