This is one of the most amazing & beautiful american films ever created(in my opinion) and I decided to take a couple of snippets of music from the film & construct an entire song from it...hope you enjoy this cover/original. :)

"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately...I wanted to live deep and suck out all of the marrow of life.
To put to route all that was not life and not when I had come to die,discovered that I had not lived"

-Henry David Thoreau

I don't know if I know the movie, here in france they have the bad habbit of changing the movie titles to something in French which isn't even a translation of the original title  ::)

But it definitivly sounds like a great sound track for a movie !

There you go again Thom..another stunning production!!

That quote put me back in time..

..I was a kid I had three big coffee-table type books I treasured,
and one was about Thoreau's life and writings.

Lovely music! Draws me in and has the follow through to hold
interest quite nicely.

Outstanding soundscape

This is a song that is just looking for a movie :-

Loved it  :;

Kara,

You may want to consider investing in a multi-regional dvd player,so as to avoid becoming lost in translation. ;) ;D

Thanks for the comment. 8)

Wyatt,

I'm afraid I'm not much of a reader,as my exposure to legends like Thoreau,are through movies...it's just hard for me to stay focused on a book,but I do read from time to time.

Thanks for the kind review & comments! 8)

Mario,

Not much chance of this song making it into a movie,since a portion of the music is not mine-unless of course,I purchase the rights. ;) ;D

Thanks for the kind words! 8)

James,

It's always nice to get your stamp of approval on songs like this,since your such a stickler for acoustic sound quality. ;D
In comparision to the instruments used in the film,I did not have high expectations of the results,since I only have one sound source to depend on-which is my Triton EX.
Some of the acoustics sounds on this keyboard really shine,but some are quite disappointing-which requires a daunting effort to tweak until a sound is usable.

That being said,I am really looking forward to the enormous sound set of Reason 4!! ;D ;D
Thanks for your kind words! 8)

A fine display of your rapidly maturing sense of composition and sound selection. (love that Triton!)

Oren,

Very dense atmosphere. Nice melodies, and good management of tension (hold and release)
I enjoyed listening to this one.

Cheers
