Soulful. Poignant. Deep. Melancholic.
I don't really know what to make of this song so I am just describing it by what it evokes from me. I love the melody, that's for sure. The lyrics, deep, yes. It could have a dozen or so interpretations. See for yourself. I just think the 747 towards the end kind of pulled the classical appeal to the side.
AUTUMN LEAVES
Float down
Like autumn leaves
Hush now
Close your eyes before the sleep
And you're miles away
And yesterday you were here with me
Another tear
Another cry
Another place for us to die
It's not complicated
Another life that's gone to waste
Another light lost from your face
It's complicated
Is it that it's over or do birds still sing for you?
Float down
Like autumn leaves
Hush now
Close your eyes before the sleep
And you're miles away
And yesterday you were here with me
Ooh how I miss you
My symphony places the song that carried you out
Ooh how I miss you
I miss you and I wish you'd stay
Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?
Float down
Like autumn leaves
Hush now
Close your eyes before the sleep
And you're miles away
And yesterday you were here with me
Float down
Like autumn leaves
Hush now
Close your eyes before the sleep
And you're miles away
And yesterday you were here with me
Ooh oh, ooh oh
Ooh oh, ooh oh
Touch down
Like a seven four seven
Stay out and we'll live forever now
It's a sad song, but it's something I love to listen to, over and over. But I have to be honest, I love this cover more than the original by Ed Sheeran. Sorry, but this guy really nailed the sentiments of the song. I wish I could sing well. Then I'd probably have enough guts to record in Sound Cloud hehehe. But for now, I am just an avid listener. You could really find a lot of talented people there.
AUTUMN LEAVES
Another day another life
Passes by just like mine
It's not complicated
Another mind
Another soul
Another body to grow old
It's not complicated

Listen to this so you'll know what I'm talking about.
How cool is that huh? Great voice, great guitar cover.
You're one of the talented ones :-)
ReplyDeleteThe words express pain and sadness. I feel it as I read thru the lines. I have not heard the original version of the song but this cover seem to do justice to it. That voice is just perfect to the lyrics. I have sound cloud acct but its been sitting there idly for years now. I guess I should start using it to discover great talents like this.
