At least, I find it so.

Here are the words.

In response to Donna’s comment, you can listen to the song without visuals:

Half Acre – Hem

    That’s a lovely song, if you close your eyes to listen to it. That’s a horrible video. Animated gifs and flashing/blinking images are not conducive to anything but a headache and eyestrain. In this particular case, I think the styles conflict also.

    I dislike the twitter feeds that are now featured on so many sites for the same reason. When trying to read static text next to anything animated, I get nauseous.

    I’ve always preferred good headphones and a dimly lit room for listening to most music. Or, I want to hear and see it performed live. The exception is what I call “driving music” which is usually what’s played on classic rock stations. I would never listen to music like this while driving… too soothing.

    Some classical music works well for driving too.

    Now that we are so close to moving back home– w/in two weeks and we’ll be there– i really get the 1/2acre message. Our farm is only 11 acres- we rent 120. This farm is 300 acres.

    The moral of our story: sometimes less is more:0).

    I love the music and the name, too.

    […] was complaining over at Amba’s place a few days ago how some videos/visuals distract and subtract from the songs they are trying to illustrate rather than add […]
