Training wheels


Cloud cut are alternative. they even declare it- in the "philosophy" part of their texts.
They got a bizarre album- 25 tracks (!!!) – Some instrumental, every track tells a different story,it's like you are entering a dream (the album called "Advice from the Happy Hippopotamus").


I got really connected to this song called "training wheels", it's a beautiful fall song
. here's what "popmatters" wrote about it:
"Training Wheels" is a slow, trippy dirge about a child riding his bike without training wheels for the first time: "Today's the day we take off your training wheels / We think you can do it / Do you think you can do it?" The training wheels, of course, serve as a metaphor for innocence and the child doubts his ability to navigate through life without crashing into the ground. As the narrator encourages the child to ride without wheels, a soft electric guitar picks notes over a soft voices repeating "How are you doing?" The overall effect is both charming and haunting."

Enjoy!!

always glad to hear for another fan of this album. I have a strong feeling that in time this album would turn into a real cult album, and a very important one.
