천 년의 시 (Poem of A Thousand Years)- Producer: 상록수 - sung by SeeU

I think this is THE song that got me loving SeeU’s voice…! Probably one of the most iconic songs sung by SeeU > 3 < I’m including the translation of the producer’s note since it explains the song the best!

producer’s note:
returning from the long hiatus with a new song. Personally I think this title is the coolest title I’ve titled so far.

this song was written to focus on the meaning of existence of vocaloids. 
one of the most criticisms vocaloid receives is the question how is vocaloids different from idol music with autotune plastered all over it and I wrote this song in order to provide my answer to this question.at least I wanted to show that such songs like these can come from the vocaloid music, that unlike the popular music where marketability cannot be ignored, vocaloid genre is where you can really practice the music that you want. 

in that stream of thought, this song is a song with sole emphasis on artistic value ignoring any marketability or popularity.
It is a 16 minute song depicting a person’s life through change in season and time in 4 different phases, and in accordance with the nature of the song almost all the instruments in the world was used and thus is very grand.
after completing this song, I don’t even know which genre it should be in. 
I feel a bit tentative since this kind of music was never heard from the vocaloid genre
I’m also glad to express my real style in such completeness but um
…
the music is heavily influenced by Korean traditional music. 
I recommend that you listen to it in an environment which you can fully appreciate it with the volume up
enjoy~

(translation is from here)

——

I just want to say that the producer is younger than me by x years ; w ; )/ and, well, there are some songs that just builds up a lot of emotion and then releases it refreshingly? and the Summer portion of this song does that!
