Birds Over Arkansas "Sunflower"


Long-time readers of CMT will remember how often I write about art thriving on simplicity - or rather, elegance might be a better description of songs that center around lovely chords, melody lines, lyrics instrumentation, and vocals. "Sunflower" by Birds over Arkansas has a folk-sensibility and a hint of country flavor in this new ballad. I could easily imagine this tune as the credits song to a heartfelt film, picturing the sun setting and things have resolved in a way that makes the characters appreciate their lives in a new light (but that's just my overactive fantasy-mind). Birds Over Arkansas have done a beautiful job, giving us a beautiful song.
