While My Guitar Gently Weeps..

*ahem* HYUZU IS A GUY OMFG YES HE IS */ahem*

The idea for this came from listening to my Beatles CDs on the car ride up to my grandparent's cottage. As you might guess, their song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" came on and, well, you can guess the rest.

So, the other day I was feeling pretty sad and I needed an outlet, so I decided to give my idea a try. I was listening to the song "Blue Skies over Bad Lands" by Matthew Good, and it was a big influence for the atmosphere and emotion of this pic. For those of you who don't know, this is my charater Hyuzu, he is the bassist in a Jrock band

I'd like to thank and and for their help and opinions while I was drawing this. Drawn on Tony's oekaki board; time spent: 445 minutes.


"Blue Skies Over Bad Lands"

What if you woke up in the middle of the night
And in your bare feet you walked outside
And realizing that you were awake that you could fly
Out over the world
To places that you've only heard of
See faces that you were sold as murderers
But just like you they're only lonely boys and girls
Like all over the world
What if you could lift them up?
What if you could make it so that times weren't tough?
So every morning when the world woke up
There'd only be weather on the news
And what if you were back in bed
With one of them floating over your head
What do you say to your enemies
When you don't know what it is that could have been between you?
There ain't no blue skies over bad lands
Even if it ain't raining in the mornings
But you don't need to fly to understand it
Just understand understanding
