If I Were a Tree

Well...
This song was written over a period of two months. It began as a short little thing with just acoustic guitar and double-tracked vocals. It grew from there. Eventually, I had my bro Charlie over to help record bass.
The song is like 3 parts. Overall, I think it is about a person so sick of humanity that he wants to be a tree, and realizing that this can't happen, he launches himself into the sun.

Very amusing, if slightly bizarre.

It's an interesting little song. The high pitches you hit at the end of every verse make me twitch a little, but the lyrics themselves are pretty good. The stransition after 0:45 with the voices is really nice. At 1:37 the beat is bizarre. Almost... Squishy. The lyrics at 2:16 are pretty good, even though you rhymed miss them with miss them (unless I misheard). Finally, at the small part after 3:13 the beat gets a little strange.

Altogether, the song is pretty nice. A little amusing, very unique, and enjoyable.

Thanks for the feedback! Very nice comments! :)
Yeah, you didn't mishear it. It was "miss them" each time. I was really... out of rhyming ideas for that section.

uhhh

well that wasnt odd at all =D

I liked it

I really like your vocals, and the main guitar piece. I didn't like the synthesizer thing that started in the second part, but I really loved the first and third parts. Please leave a review my work!
