Digging your artistry, from the whistling to the imaginative songwriting. I feel like you're singing about a grasshopper, but maybe something super-human too. Listened twice, because I enjoy it so much–especially the upbeat part at the end. Keep thinking you're channeling Jerry Garcia.
Thanks man! I will take grasshopper... I think I was envisioning more of a damselfly larva scenario but as I said I wanted to leave this one open to interpretation as I think the lyrics have some broad applicability to us all.
You are either the second person recently to mention the Jerry Garcia comparison, or possibly you were the first person as well... did you comment similarly on one of my previous songs? I can dig it - it is pretty high praise!
I loved your entry this week as well. Cheers - Carl
Yep, I've had the same thought about you and Jerry Garcia twice!! Definitely intended as a high compliment. Yay, happy to hear you are indeed envisioning an insect here. I have a bee song, called "Be Well Bee." Thank you, dude.
lovely song dude! your whistling is far better than mine.... I do a tiny bit in my entry this week! Great change of pace at the end as well, its like 2 songs in one! :) x
Thanks man I will have to check yours out now - I am a big fan of whistling in general :) Also, you had me at " king of the hippopotamus tree" LOL
haha. thats literally the first thing I did on Steemit and I still havn't changed it!
Nice song. You got a lot of good songs.
Thanks Luz! I have a lot of songs, if Open Mic keeps on rolling for years to come (and I hope it does!) I won't run out of originals :)
