I think that the summer is all about upbeat stuff.. I think it is a good idea to make a more up-beat song release in the summer, and more minor song for the fall or winter... I think that nolita fairytale is a decent song, I have not heard the whole thing.... But I think it is a better choice for people to jam out to some vanessa carlton - then be moved by HOM... The other choice was House/Home... Irv said that was going to be the single. It is very somber, basic, and mellow, but as it goes on it builds well... It becomes upbeat, but still minor, and has some good melodic structures that are movie-esq like HOM does
"Leaving now Im alone I've always known with you I am home"
First of all, you have an audio of house?? Can you please send it to me or put up a link?? I would love to hear it - I haven't yet!
good point. HOM is not as up beat. The corus is a bit upbeat though...but the rest of the song isn't. however, more people would be able to relate to it since it is a song about thinking that someone is your soul mate and that other person doesn't feel the same way. I have a feeling a lot of people have experienced this. However Nolita Fairytale is very personal to V and others might not be able to relate - kind of like white houses and why it did not do very well as a single. I haven't heard Houses yet though so I can't comment.
