TREE SONGS (on three CD's)

VA - Trees (A Butterboy Compilation) CD1+CD2+CD3

The imagery of trees has inspired countless songs. Some of the best tree songs are about specific types of trees, while other songs about trees are about the forest in general.  Many singer songwriters also use trees as a metaphor to express deeper meanings and emotions using thought-provoking lyrics. Trees in songs are sometimes mentioned to explain a philosophical outlook of life where trees may represent a sense of belonging with family and friends. Whilst trees may be associated with a wide spectrum of concepts or ideas, they often represent Calmness, Growth, Life, Friendship, Loneliness, Celebration, Love, Death, Forgiveness and Relaxation. Many great tree songs have the word tree in the title and some great songs about trees reference leaves and branches in the lyrics.

Here is the first volume of 75 tracks that deliver and artists use of tree in their songs to give us some insight into their thinking.  Enjoy!
