As always a great story Ciggi - great vocal liked the slightlyeccentric tag maybe I should have probablytooeccentric.

Wooooooooo! Love it, Ciggi! The precious slideshow, your storytelling!, the doo-doo-doo’s (you should do more of that kinda thang!), Magmavander’s backing track… the whole THING! It’s relatable, incredibly touching, and well-written! WOOO!

a great song, touching and true

Oooh..nice pell! Enjoyed the slideshow as well. That’s a cool track by Magmavander.

Here’s another vimeo that really gets to the soul:

You always bring something a little less the same than others might. And it’s always good. This one is singably sad. I think you’ll find a lot of sympathetic listeners, given that there are 100,000,000 more dogs in America than people. I only know about a half dozen. The ones that people from neighboring streets bring over to our yard to deposit their excrement. We do have a few cats in the house but I’m inclined to agree with the comic who said “they just look at you like ‘you know if I was bigger I’d eat you’”. Still, when I’m old and infirm I’ll probably be able to muster up an anthropomorphic emotional/delusional dependency with the best of ‘em. (Sorry, I must be feeling especially curmudgeonly today. The sadness of this piece for me is that it seems like there is more ‘love’ being spent on animals than people.)

beautifully well done song for the furry safety valves we call our pets.

In summary a bad reference for the “human” beings. Sometimes just left behind and being overtaken by a “simple” dog when it comes to respect, indulgence or pitty!
I grew up with dogs and I learned one thing: if she or he can´t get along with dogs a closer friendship won´t work!

Sad, moving but true lyrics and a wonderful performance Ciggi

I really enjoyed the video. Your storytelling, as always, is marvelous. You are such a great writer. And, as always, I love your voice. Your “doodoodoo” bits are the perfect foil for the bittersweet undertone of the song. Bravo my dear! (As you going to upload the remix?)

I’d pretty much say the same thing speck did. The subject matter’s not only unique to CCMixter, but probably never written before at all.

And it is very true. I remember a couple of family members who could not have got through their tragedies without the unquestioning love of a dog.

I like it :-). There are countless boxes I have buried over the years, in various gardens and places one just before Christmas. 2 new kittens filled the gap.!

Liked you video too.

I’m sorry, I missed this novelty …. and it’s damage, because it is once again fantastic purity of voice …. and the text is shouting of logic, and truth. A bit harsh perhaps (at least what I understand)
Vicky, Dipsy, Choco have listened…. and are in love.
It’s harder at to listen to cats ….
I could not now live without the love of my friends at 4 legged …. you well know, is not it. It is a certain philosophy of life, and I do not feel so crazy (^o^)

The vidéo, and music, fantactic …. Bravo!

I’ve listened to this song a few times now on Vimeo and as you know I really love it. I’ve finally figured out what it reminds me of and why I was so drawn to it. Lyric aside, the construction of the vocal melody reminds me very much of very early David Bowie ca. 1969 and how he used to sing his songs. A man, I know, but still that’s a huge compliment because those songs are classics. At least for me they are and my life wouldn’t have been the same without them. I love this song. You’re a genius.

I love this song, and how you sing it. Especially when you sing “unspeakably sad” part, is very touching :)

Congratulations Ciggiburns, you are very skilled and you are really good-hearted (i hope you can understand my humble english)



ps: i enjoyed the video. Nice animals, i love them :)

Haha I love this :D
