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.
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.
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
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
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
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 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.
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'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.
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. 🙌
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.
Wow This is beautiful. I started listening to this guy on the release of hurt and I feel like he never had enough recognition, not enough now still. He has a voice that's amazing with auto tune or without it. He's so unique

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

He was signed by Apollo at this time

Anyone else notice that the scene of him putting on his gear is similar to those scenes in Alien Boy?

Because of that bowl cut he gained alot of power

I wouldn’t be surprised if the same team he used in these are the ones in his Oliver Tree videos/persona
@@desadefilms621 i feel like it is because the directors are oliver and Steve and in the making of the song hurt you can hear oliver say Steve's name
Hope he makes a music video where he returns that location and walks around it remembering the old times
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
It is incredible how he has evolved as a musician and created a character and life goes on and on

I’m curious too
Still stayed the same 5 years later
This song captures the essence of adventure perfectly
Yes yes yes
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
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
Holy fuck, this was phenomenal. I would literally kill to have him start making videos like this again
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?“
This song just makes me so relaxed idk why but it hits different
Nice name
This is how i want sound to sound like
Same
this is honestly such an underrated song
i want his whole project as tree on spotify and shit pls
Agreed
It is look up mr tree not Oliver tree
its on there (besides the karma police cover), just look up Mr.Tree
@@petestone9735 thanks
Bring this style of music back
2014 TREE KNEW WHAT THE FUCK HE WAS DOING.
THIS IS SUCH A BOP
old Oliver was perfection
Who's here after he did a reverse joji and now he's leaving again qwq
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 miss when oliver tree took himself seriously, his music was so pretty.
me too, now he's a meme and his music sounds very mainstream

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
My dude in the animation his coat looks like grandmas strawberry hard candy
oh my god u right
Holy heck, thank you random youtube comment for bringing me here.
I hope more people see this video, old but gold.
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
4:46 is when alien boy started falling down to earth
This guy is definitely the product of Santa Cruz . . .
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.
I thought I’d that the first time I saw this aswell
When ur around took the beat from the credits 🔥🔥🔥
GUYS YOU CAN FIND THIS WHOLE ALBUM AT Mr.Tree on spotify
Also on RUclips just look up tree splitting branches
Daymmmmmm pre- Bowl CUT :P
IKR?! I'm lowkey freaking out. I love his tracks as Tree though!!
I think Oliver’s master plan was to become a meme to get his music out there, soon the charts will be filled with good music again
I would have followed that wabbit - I'm looking forward to the next adventure.

Lowkey old oliver tree is actually good looking its tripping me out

I like this better than his new. I love his new. But this older stuff, has tones of Radiohead and Björk. Amazing.
Bjork!!!
Back to a simpler time where Tree was living in a tree.
Every now and then there's a song that I find. And it keeps me living. This is one of them.
this does not have the attention it deserves. a solid 9/10
Theres a 10 right there 😀
Now that he's broke through, I kinda wished he'd go back to this style

nice to see he's been doing the running with the camera strapped to him in videos for a while.
The camels angle that starts at 2:50 is super similar to the ones he still uses
mans has so much talent He plays his own instruments, mixes his own music, performs his own stunts, and directs his own music videos.
