Make Another Tree - Eef Barzelay (Daytrotter Session)
This song crushes me in all the right ways.
“The woman singing this one (I just realized it’s a woman) is desperate to connect and or transcend. There’s a Henry David Thoreau vibe to it, but with a sinister Susan Smith element mixed in. I enjoy grafting a character’s conflicts and yearnings unto some kinda Bob Ross nature scene; our hot sticky humanity playing off the cool, and infinite, indifference of nature makes for good songs. There’s also an “End Times” element to it, which pops up a bunch on the record.”
