"As far as Genre..."
date: April 30, 2008
This song has such a lovely message... This song is very sweet, sentimental and wistful, and the imagery is beautifully poetic. You can almost see the stars. The composition is clean and deeply atmospheric. What I adore the most of this song is the soft and optimistic, yet intense--not quite desperate, but you can tell the emotions run strong.
But it's not very country :p
It sounds a lot more like alternative/indie-rock ballad... especially the lo-fi, echoing refrain against the acoustic strum.
Nevertheless, this song easily stands on its own two feet as a masterpiece. It has a feel of completion and wholeness that you don't see elsewhere in a free source like Newgrounds.
Therefore, there is no possibility EXCEPT 5/5-10/10. I wish most people were this professional and sincere with their music. That was just beautiful. Thank you for this experience.
