First time...
Someone's asked me to check out something of theirs after it came out.
I really enjoy it, despite the repetitive-ness of it in the beginning and seemingly as it goes along, the tunes work with it, so it still feels like a story.
It almost reminds me of a megaman tune in one part, and I kind of enjoy that, as well as a Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
It feels similar to someone who was lost but then found - like two brothers coming back together again after long last...
Feels very nice. Dreamy almost, surreal, might work with the Pendragon series (I actually finished reading the final one on Friday - better than the other nine combined in my opinion).
Hmm... Second time listening, feels like me or somebody else fighting gracefully and gallantly through a mob of enemies, constantly trying to move forward, occasionally maybe just pushing some enemies onto their backs...? Then constantly moving forward.
Running and then jumping off a cliff, throwing the sword to the side, diving down below into the water, pain washing over the body as they start to swim, trying to get through it, making waves, taking everything they've experienced up 'til now as strength, surfacing, starting to stroke their way forward until they come upon a small boat with somebody inside, a fisher in the middle of nowhere seemingly, who welcomingly greets this soaking wet person as he rocks the boat by getting up and inside, breathing hard. The somewhat old man asks what brings him here, and the young man answers, still dripping.
(about here if not earlier is when it started again)
The old man nods and hums a tune as he puts his rod down and turns to face the young man, grabbing the oars and beginning to stroke toward what the young man just has to have faith is land.
He gets nervous over time, slowly drying off, glad that this man is doing this for him, and when the old man keels over, dropping one of the oars into the water, the young man goes to his side, and (having not talked to him ever since earlier), grabs him and sets him gently to the side as he picks up an oar, asks the man if he's alright, who brushes it off, and begins to stroke toward the sun, the direction the old man had been going for awhile, occasionally making waves in the water of fishies as he strays occasionally, enjoying what he sees, and trying to find what might be the real way to where he's going.
The old man talks a bit, and the young man answers, unsure slightly of himself. They keep going like this, sharing stories with one another, and getting to know one another.
It goes on for more than this, it's definitely not happily ever after, so I might attempt to add on later, na? :O
Very good song.
Good title too.
Only thing I could ever ask is longer and a bit more variety because of that. :)
