@Animeshadow100 YES! and the whole dilemma about whether or not it really was love, and even if it was really love, whether or not that justifies what he's doing! this song suited it so well, SO MANY MIND GAMES...also...all the love stuff :P
@robotichedgehog have you seen all the episodes? the last episode took the cake when echo got an imprint of paul I cried for an hour and kept replaying it, a great ending to a great show.. WHY ONLY TWO SEASONS!!!
It's amazing all the good stuff you can find while trolling along on youtube! At first I was disappointed it took me over 2 years to find this gem. But it all makes sense as I now have someone in my life for whom this song has been written for. Greg must have been able to look into my future! What a beautiful song!
Dam this song is only 1 minute long, and yet it's so beautiful, he shpuld have made it longer, incorporated another couple of verses and used the ending part as the chorus! :(
@JackRabbitSlim There's a video somewhere of him where he explains that as he was writing this song he realized he'd already put everything he meant to say in it and he didn't feel like adding anything more just for the sake of it.
I have to agree, a significant part of its beauty and why we like it is how short it is and how much it says in just over one minute.
he is my bestfriend. really, i love him and he is my eldest best friend / hero (: i am only 12, but i guess i can find a hero when i see one. xoxox Greg. < 3
Was watching Dollhouse episodes again on the DVD set and just noticed the use of this song at the end of Man On The Street with Rebecca and Joel. They use Greg's cover of Your Ghost at the end of A Love Supreme in the second season with the same two characters. Just a cute find, I think.
just heard this on an episode of Dollhouse, and I had to look it up. Damn nice song. Sometimes all you need is 60 secs to say something lovely. Aww I am feeling all soppy now.
seems like something happened to u =\ but i can tell u life seems to be like a rollercoaster, and the difference between happiness and sadness is wheter u wait for the top.... or the bottom, and the top is coming very soon =)
i'm better by now, that day i was just totally freaked out, because one guy in my year killed himself and last week mood in school was just awful, we couldn't and still can't believe it because no one noticed anything.. he was just a normal, nice guy with friends and everything... it just hit me. but life has to go on.. somehow... =/
wooow, perhaps i've never experienced something like that or i'll never will.
but like u said life still goes on and on. And definitely i am sure he is resting now, he is definitely feeling better and is in peace now, without the problems he had :)
i love this song SO much, first heard it on 'Dollhouse' ... im getting a tattoo of the end part of it; 'and the morning would be so cruel when it came
It is a shame that this isn't a full-length tune. One minute just isn't long enough to listen to this fantastic piece of music. Well done! Finally, everyone has something original and worth the time it takes to slow down and listen.
For the first part ("If I could write out my own dream..."):
C, C/B, Am, F, C, G
The second part ("And the dream would go...")
F, C, F, C, F, C, G
The ending ("For announcing...")
Am, G, C
Just play with the fingerpicking until you get it, and put a capo wherever you feel sounds right. I put it on 1, which isn't exactly "correct" but sounds good to me.
I think I'm gonna get this song and then edit it so that at least it loops seamlessly, at least so that the opening line becomes the chorus. I love that line "If I could write out my own dream" just the way he delivers it is amazing
Hi we are strangers but we share 1 thing in common; the love of this way to short song. Could you tell me what software i could use to edit this? Did you manage to edit it?
I did manage to edit it but I wasn't able to make it much longer. I was able to insert the opening line from the song "If I could write out my own dream for the next time that I sleep". I love the whole song but that is definitely my favorite part. So for my desire of wanting to hear that part one more time in the song I edited so it blends nicely into the middle and then continues on but like I said, it's not much more longer.
You can use any editing program, just as long as you have a good keen ability for editing audio. I'm a film editor/director so for me it was an easy "slap-together" but you can use just about anything.
Ok well thanks for the reply. Instead of missing the 3 or 4 minutes i wish was there im just going to keep on enjoying the soulful minute and a bit of pure genius! See ya:)
When I saw him in concert, he talked about how sometimes, a song just needs to be long enough to say what it needs to say. I thought that was so beautiful.
Me too (almost)! I definitely got misty. The writers of that episode should get some kind of award for giving such a temporary character so much emotional depth.
I'm sorry Whiskey.
