"It's Calm and Lovely"
date: July 10, 2009
I pressed play expecting just another "sob" instrumental/song on Newgrounds, and started thinking it WAS just another sob song until 0:35.
At 0:35, that's when I felt the song's potential to become an amazing, emotional work of art. However, the song felt too repetitive until 2:15 when it sped up. Then it ended on a sour note...
Don't get me wrong though, this song is far from crap, and everyone should still listen to this. The piano felt refreshing, though it did become repetitve. The reverb was excellent. The song expresses sorrow, depression, and sadness with ease. And the song did have its number of moments.
It's a good song, but next time around, make sure that the melody is a little more diverse to keep listeners entertained. And it would be more interesting to start off with another instrument than a piano, unless the piano makes a distinct beat or sound.
