I was just listening to my ipod and becoming you comes on.

how many of you, like me, dig this song?

even in its unfinished state i like it. it is simple, melodic. and i know that on the lyrics page there are more lyrics than they sing, but i still think its a good tune.

i would love to hear a finished version of it.


so who else likes that tune?

It's one of my favorite early Eisley songs. Very Happy

These days, I think of it as an old cousin of "We Feel Good." Another great, unpolished love song that will probably never make anything but a B-sides and rarities album or a completist box set. But yeah, it would be really cool to hear a proper version of it one day.

I love that song... I love all of their old stuff! Haha, when they played Laughing City at Buzz-Oven, I was seriously taken away with the performance just because they never play it and it's one of my favorite songs by them.

Becoming You has a great and simple melody to you that just pulls you in a alluringly relaxing kind of way.

I'm guessing that's one reason they don't have it on the album. ha. But honesty counts for a lot, too. Mushy is good somtimes.
