I used to listen to this back in the day. Just started listening to oliver tree recently and it's blowing my mind that this is the same dude. He's like, pulling a reverse Joji.
A lot of scenes in this video can be seen being used in more recent music videos I think it's because Oliver directs all of his vids so he's probably just using his favourite shots
When he goes down the tree of the tree house it's the same basic idea of the way he goes down the ladder in "Let Me Down" the way they edit them going down
I feel like the rabbit hole at the end of the video signifies the end of a chapter in Oliver’s life, before he went on to create different music and overall become a new person in general. Great music, great video, thanks for this.
I don't understand what this video means or what "stuck down the wrong rabbit hole"means and keep in mind I am only fourteen so I am barely experiencing the world
@@somefuckingretard8289 in an old interview, Oliver himself states that this song is about when him and his friend would let his dog loose in the neighborhood and they would chase the dog through different backyards, but I personally think this has a bigger meaning like what 20251218 says
honestly, it seems to me that the whole song may represent the struggle to get over someone that you have loved and lost. The rest of "splitting branches" focuses on the separation of Oliver from a romantic interest and how his outlook changes as a result. Plus his destitute attitude and surroundings at the beginning of the video followed by a manic dive directly into a plane entirely composed of metaphor strikes me as very similar to emotional episodes of grief, realization, and mania that I've had relating to romantic losses. For me, and I think Oliver, the rabbit represents the image of the person in our mind and the hole is the depth of infatuation we've experienced over them and the grief we've suffered over losing them. We know we have to escape this hole but the rabbit makes it hard because it constantly looms where ever we look and just the sight of it immediately caves the ground out from under us. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
Brian Kisielewski can you tell me anything about his career four years ago? All there is now is three videos on this channel and his new shit. I'm so intrigued about his whole career
Wow I remember I found that out years ago and was wondering why it has no views, i was stoned as well It was amazing Then I found cherdleys somewhere, found Oliver tree on his video and listen to some of his tracks. Today I came back to this video since I had it on a playlist to find it again and saw in the comments this guy is Oliver tree , wtf it's been years and i didnt even knew that haha
@@monkeyfilms5968 Yes, he is. Before 2014 he went under the name tree and tree collaborations. If your interested you should look into the ashwood project, it's all about preserving and discovering all of Oliver's old works.
weird... my experience was backwards i found him thru getters song forget it and started listening to "when im down" to his current stuff. then stumbled on to cherdleys and noticed him there. did more research on him and just discovered tree collaborations and the splitting branches album, im glade i looked more into him because this stuff is awesome.
I wish he stayed like this and making this type of music. But even before i saw the interviews/bts, i know it probably wasnt working with getting big etc hence why he had to evolve and make a character shame, but still keeping to and enjoying this era of him even now.
Still coming back to this regularly. Crazy to think I found Oliver like this and then rediscovered him in 2018 with When I'm Down, which is still my favorite song of all time
I like how in his older stuff you can see things that stuck with his style throughout the years. The camera zooms and the shaky camera perspective that's up in his face like in the bury me alive music video.
This thing has barely 500.000 views and is produced so well, holy. Maybe he doesn't want to since its no longer his style but he should be pushing his old stuff more. This is amazing.
1:12 - 1:52 gives me chills. Such a beautiful piece of music. My goodness. Thank you Oliver. I love you, brother ❤ P.S. - I wonder if Oliver reads any messages on this video, or if he comes back and listens to this song from time to time
I've lost my sweet unique dog , in the past summer...this track make me think at her madly and deeply...and I cry, 'cuz it hurts so much...Rest In Pooch, Olly.
This is art. I don't give any hells to someone telling me otherwise. I'm absolutely enamored with Oliver Tree and Tree Productions. Talent is back. This time in JNCOs and as a 33 year old woman. I AM down for that.
I love how the cinematography is his own. You can tell his style with all he does here to now. His style is something beautiful and nothing to be scoffed at. If he quits music entirely (which I doubt), then I'll know he's left his mark in the world to a generation of people. He is a king in his ways.
I'm annoyed that this entire playlist with all of Oliver's older songs don't have more views on these videos. His fans NEED to check out his music prior to Ugly Is Beautiful, cuz it's all soooo GOOD. 🙌
It's like he said himself in one of his songs, he sold his soul. I guess he had to give up this side of himself in order to gain a bigger audience. I personally like both sides. And I have a feeling that he'll be releasing some of this type of music in future albums.
EuphoricAmbience someone said that when he made this type of music he had a tight contract, and know he can make whatever he wants. I don’t know if that’s true tho
I've never been so grateful for an Instagram ad, which led me to meet Oliver Tree... and which led me to meet Tree Collaborations. I can't believe this guy, he's pretty good.
I wonder what olivers plan was for the dude. He said he wanted to make entire stories with this person. And even in 5 maybe 10 years make a film that was an entire experience
I have the sensation that i've heard this years ago by the time I couldn't stop listening Purity Ring and things like that. My head explode now that I discover that this is THE OLIVER TREE!!!!
Who else comes back to jam to Oliver trees old music when we are all prob kids (ik I was) when he was coming out with getter and we would all jam to his edm and electronic and soon went to rap and stuff later on to tree making these still being fans then olive tree and still sticking up with him and now that he “ended” Oliver tree, finally going back and reliving the path that we all took, growing up with him, and watching him become a millionaire lol. Like crazy just crazy to think we (well the og) went threw all of this. Just. Crazy. Glad I was part of this epic journey and still out of all of his songs this is by far one of my favs.
Dude this video is sooooooo good ... the amount of time he put into making this and the quality is nuts.... and this is before he got a bowl cut and blew up.
I searched around Spotify and found the album! Sadly it was removed bye Tree during, "The Forest Fire" in which Oliver tried to delete all of his songs, if you want to know more about it search up, "The Ashwood Project"!

Holy shit ur right
pulling a reverse joji? what does that mean? i hear it so often
@@jacob8693 joji went from making joke music to serious music while tree do the opposite

The cinematography was actually incredibly good. This is an insanely good music video, especially for how small he was when he made this.

He was signed by Apollo at this time

Why they stop to make music :c
Anyone else notice that the scene of him putting on his gear is similar to those scenes in Alien Boy?

It is incredible how he has evolved as a musician and created a character and life goes on and on
I completely forgot about this song for years, beautiful. Glad it came back up for me
I wish he stayed like this and making this type of music. But even before i saw the interviews/bts, i know it probably wasnt working with getting big etc
hence why he had to evolve and make a character
shame, but still keeping to and enjoying this era of him even now.
I completely agree with you on this. People somethimes change for good or bad but in his case it is sad that it is completely changed :/
I've been thinking for years that he will drop the character at some point and try to be taken seriously again, but he still hasn't unfortunately.
He sorta stopped taking music seriously after getting stiffed and completely fucked over by the record label he was under as Tree.
Wish I had seen more from Tree. I prefer this type of music, it's so soothing and magical. Love his current music though!
Ikr, especially the vocals
You can find all of his old stuff if you know where to look. Have you heard “an apology?“
8 years and this album and all these songs have still been some of the best music I’ve ever listened to, and in another 8 I’ll show it to my kids
Agreed
This song captures the essence of adventure perfectly
Yes yes yes
The rabbit represents the bowl cut. He had it before, and no matter how hard he tried, it came back to him no matter what
Why in God's name didn't I stumble upon this sooner. Masterpiece
Ikr
november 2020 and i only found it... wtf
Just found it now
to be honest i think this is the best song Oliver Tree have ever made.
I do agree only because the music video was so incredibly good.
This and demons are my favorite.
This is gold, but the new ones are also pretty good
@@awesome3mpire405 yeah true but this one always will be a classic
@@OctusYT totally
Still coming back to this regularly. Crazy to think I found Oliver like this and then rediscovered him in 2018 with When I'm Down, which is still my favorite song of all time
Bring this style of music back
This song just makes me so relaxed idk why but it hits different
Nice name
Holy fuck, this was phenomenal. I would literally kill to have him start making videos like this again
The outro is heavenly
i seriously wish that drastic music change in the outro was on the album version of this song
it's probably my favourite part
What even is the outro song? Is it a separate song? It's amazing
the whole video is heavenly, it feels almost unreal
That outro song is in another one of his recent songs, when youre around
I would have followed that wabbit - I'm looking forward to the next adventure.

nice to see he's been doing the running with the camera strapped to him in videos for a while.
I'm impressed. By the skill and talent
3:08 im ashamed to say how many times I’ve replayed just to hear his voice
mans has so much talent He plays his own instruments, mixes his own music, performs his own stunts, and directs his own music videos.

Proof that you need a gimmick to be recognized. This shit is so good
Wow. Incredible cinematography
I don’t know why, but the outro 3:35 just gives me chills, which the outro was in the album version of this song
You can hear it in when your around which is cool I guess
All his music videos are a work of art
I like this better than his new. I love his new. But this older stuff, has tones of Radiohead and Björk. Amazing.
