""When the world always seems to be at its most difficult state, Wicker. A four man band out of Dublin, created a simple song entitled, 'Earth Song'. The song itself is inspiring and conscious to our forever-changing environment, justifying the feeling of being lost.
Beginning with a mellow acoustic riff and a violin, the lead singer sings questions like, ""where are we coming from?"", and ""what are we doing here?"" Thus, making any listener use their own imagination to fill in the blanks... The song progresses harder, but not to the point of anger. And it leaves you calm, while sitting next to a dangerous stranger. What I really like about this band is that they are both thought provoking and informative at the same time. The lyrics switch like a multiple personality going from young child to wise man, analyzing what we call earth. They are very talented and layout a solid song that makes you either want to sing along while the world destroys itself, or stop events before they happen. Fans of bands that twirl the imagination, and let you paint your own picture of destruction/peace will love this creation. It will definitely be left on repeat until the end of... my review... fill in the blanks yourself... Highly recommended……..Wicker Rocks! scent ""
