Reviews

  • This is a truly amazing song. The only reason I didn't give this one a ten is because the rest of the album is only cover songs. Even though the cover songs are all great, and performed flawlessly (in my opinion, better in some cases than the originals), they are still no substitute for new material. This EP came about from a song they had played a couple of times live, and fans started going crazy over it from bootlegs and demanded that they record it. The song itself is around 25 minutes long and lyrically (and musically) it draws parallels between the changing seasons and the stages of life with some great emotion of sorrow, contentment, and happiness all blended together. This is one of those songs that I have listened to OVER AND OVER AND OVER, and I don't think I'll ever get tired of it.
