Title: Brothers
Post by: mstesson on July 10, 2022, 09:58:03 AM

Hi all,

I wrote this song as a tribute to my childhood friends.



I was partly inspired by the kids in Stranger Things, so I put together this video also:

Hola @mstesson (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=22901)
Childhood, that transformation that can turn us into wings or weight...
Very nice song and good production.
I love the Hey Oh Hey Oh Hey Oh

Stay well

Mora

Nice indie vibe @mstesson (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=22901) Good melody and very well put together - Catchy chorus for sure ! Nice one

Nice track... somehow a strong 80s vibe to my ears - especially that 'Hey Oh' in the chorus.  The dynamics are good - there's a strong lift in momentum into the choruses.  Dig the guitar sounds too.  I like the way you end on a verse.

Cool track, from the hauntung guitar intro to the nostalgic lyrics and varied guitar. Vocals are super. Hooks are obvious "hey oh" being a great addition to the chorus and a lovely contrasting broken down section too. I really enjoyed listening.

'Hey Oh Hey Oh Hey Oh' is gonna be in my head for the rest of the week... thanks for that.
I actually would have used it more than you have. Like this...

Hey Oh Hey Oh Hey Oh
You were my brothers
                                 (Hey Oh Hey Oh Hey Oh)
We stood up for each ^other, always , always
It was us against the world

Just my two cents.
