I heard this song in the trailer of "The descendents" and i tought "that´s Radical Face!!!" and i look for the soundtrack and is not there, and i thought "somebody stole Ben´s Formula to do songs!!!" and then i hear this and i can sleep again :)
@chrysallis161190 The Family Tree: The Roots is a concept, just like his previous album Ghost. This album in particular tells the tale of several generations of a fictitious family. This song for me recalls the tale of a familial (fraternal, really) relationship falling apart narrated by the committed half of the pair.
The opening line "we were tightknit boys, brothers in more than name" as well as others suggests that the song is about two brothers and one moving on and away from the other.
@ingeniouslyme If you listen to the Severous and Stone track, its about 2 twin brothers and one dies a slow death from an illness. I think this song is a follow up song in the view point of the living brother talking about his dead twin.
I listen to radical face when Im walking alone, weather through a crowd, trudging through the snow in the winter, or simply walking through the forest in autumn. :)
@Doomreavr Some music does indeed seem to sound so much better in certain settings. Ben Cooper's music is the sort of stuff that's best served in winter, but of course it's brilliant any time of year.
This is unreal. whether you are baking a cake, thinking of someone special, or simply loving life this is the song that embodies the fantastically surreal emotions of peaceful living.
Hmm. I like it, but I want to love it. However, it is unfortunately similar melodically to many of their other songs. Especially the intro. Perhaps this is intentional, but I prefer a bit more variety. I'll keep digging through their repertoire and see I just got unlucky and picked a bunch of similar songs of theirs. We'll see.
@dinsule Seems I was just a bit unlucky. There's a fair bit of variety in his work. He certainly seems to have a favorite key, but so do most musicians. This is a gorgeous song in any case. :)
Friendship isn't just about being there for someone when they need you, it's about being there for someone for company. They're not the person who saves you last second when you're almost in the dark, they're the person who was constantly trying to pull you away from it the whole time.

@pacynad Don't forget to check out Electric President, which was a band led by Ben Cooper, the lead singer of this band. Insomnia and Its An Ugle Life are their best songs.
Ben has knocked another one out of today's music industry park. I love how he keeps taking you to new places in his songs. Just when your moved he changes it up and awes you again. Ben Cooper is the best music discovery I've ever made. I just hope he'll continue making music (under Radical Face, Electric Presidents, or whomever) and that he gets his much deserved recognition.
