    I wish this was longer.
    When "you smell of dead flowers" was first released i was mourning my uncle and his battle to cancer. To hear this cover and the sort of bounce it has...
    It gives me hope. Thanks, for that.

  • @exursix
    @exursix 6 місяців тому +283

    the original felt self-deprecating, like a deep inner self-hatred and mourning for yourself despite you still being alive, yet completely dead inside
    the rock cover feels like a hint of self-hatred, still self-deprecating yet almost blissfully ignorant to it all, after finding something that makes you feel like everything is okay
    its like you were still who you are in the original, but you're now healing to become a better person

    The original is amazing and I like it for what it is, but this version? It's like taking all that sadness of the original and turning it hope. You went from Omori sad and nostalgic music to Deltarune Field of Hope and Dreams, totally adding this one to my instant happyness songs.

    funny enough, the vibe fits with how im feeling currently, haha
    i was laying in bed feeling hollow while the original song was looping, sometimes later i slept and woke up to this, i feel a bit better now, but the melancholy still remains and i think its similar to the vibe of this song, its upbeat but it still has that sad tone to it
    this is really awesome, thanks for making it :)

    I love this song it's feels like something that no one can take from me, especially beacause I rewrote it in my own language, and added a little bit of my soul in it so it's feels like my own now, *with respect* for Vslsuh (original creator) Thank you for sharing this amazing song, It inspired me and gave comfort, I like the idea that the reason for not having lyrics for this song is because the listeners have to sing it for themselves, therefore, every individual can let out there inner voice, and feelings and make the song their own by adding their own singing in it. I love the melody it is truely amazing
