A ditty inspired by the exploits of Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang. :-)

I really like this piece! It sounds like a mix between Charlie Brown and Cats in the Craidle...

Wow, thanks! That's one connection I hadn't contemplated before. It wasn't intentional, but I can sort of see what you mean. CitC is another of my faves. I really appreciate the review, thanks again! :-)

Havn't listened to the original theme song, will have to do that sometime. Great track though. :)

Thanks for the review! I've found the name of the original - "Linus & Lucy" by Vince Guaraldi in case you ever want to look it up. The current copyright holder is Hogan Media & Music - and for the record, they reviewed this song and determined that while they can hear the similarities, they feel it's differentiated enough not to be any sort of copyright infringement. WOOHOO!!! :-) JUST the response I'd hoped for.

Thanks again! :-)

"Nice job re-creating the feel, I feel fuzzy inside"

you must know the song Charlie Brown themesong really to well to create a completely unique track, but still perfectly compliments the original song.

some really striking chords and beautiful melodies in here. crisp, authentic piano tones bring out the sound very well. Everything connects and bridges together so well. great use of dynamics. how long you've been playin piano for?

another thing I love about the progression is how there are some real cheerful parts, perhaps representing Charlie's good times of his mature life...then there's sections were it invokes dark and minor sounding emotions....like when Charlie learns the consequences of unsafe sex or something....

anyways, this is very nice, I dont know what else to write here. I enjoyed listening to this man.

"nice"

by: UberKuri

Pretty nice, though it got real repetitive.

Thanks for the feedback! :-) Listening to it again, I have to agree to an extent, it did get a bit repetetive. I'm still fairly new at trying to make actual compositions for others to listen to, so I've not yet figured out how to make the song of decent length without letting it be overly repetetive. But I'm a-workin' on it. Your feedback is much appreciated! :-)
