Think about this: AWAP might be one of their best Self Titled songs and its true, but Trees is THEIR best song not just Vessel's

I want all the treeshuggers to take a moment to listen to addict with a pen

My instinct is Trees, but after thinking about it, AWAP has sorta similar build-up and somber moments that Trees has, while being a more complex song. I’m going with AWAP.

I HATE THAT STUPID BOT

STOP TOUGH BATTLE BRO

this might be the closest battle yet wtf

sorry both are awesome and this is probably the hardest choice but after experiencing trees live it's 100% trees

we can't let trees make it that far for some confetti

ADDICT WITH A PEN YOU GODDAMN COWARDS

THIS IS THE HARDEST ONE YET

vivid galleon

if trees wins I literally may have to change my name

I'm worried trees would end up going against Morph or Bandito (my two favorites)

#

YES MYSTIC, AWAP FOR THE WIN

#

we have a strong enemy on our hands we need our strongest campaigning yet
we need posters we need to convince people to not be bias

This is the best hope to end it

#

I haven't even been to a concert yet grief I don't have the same attachment to trees (yet)

#

is this a trees landslide

#

do we think

simple current
#

I think while this is hard honestly

coarse bane
#

use all the arguments from before
awap is more interesting sonically
awap has the better deeper lyrics
awap has the better piano
ELIMINATE BIAS DONT VOTE FOR CONFETTI IT IS UNFAIR
judge it SONG BY SONG

simple current
#

a fair matchup finally

#

two great songs

mental mortar
#

omg trees is magical
but also addict with a pen is very special

simple current
#

(not saying previouse weren't)

#

just saying these are two special songs

coarse bane
#

SONG BY SONG ✊✊✊

#

listen to them side by side with NO BIAS

vivid galleon
#

trees is good . but it is no addict with a pen.

coarse bane
#

BEAT THE VESSEL BIAS
BEAT THE CONFETTI BIAS
BEAT THE CONCERT CLOSER BIAS
NO MORE MID FINALES
BEAT TREES
VOTE FOR THE SONG NOT THE EXPERIENCE

deep spear
#

What is the concert closer bias??

coarse bane
#

IF TREES WASNT GIVEN SPECIAL TREATMENT YOU WOULD KNOW AWAP IS THE RIGHT ANSWER

deep spear
#

Oh lol, I get it now

coarse bane
#

yes

deep spear
#

I mean they’re both really really amazing songs though. Addict with a pen is just something that I feel has to really resonate with people

#

Whereas trees will always be popular since it’s the ending of concerts

keen knot
#

trees outsold

deep spear
#

It’s like the unofficial anthem

coarse bane
#

I'm urging people to listen to both songs and really try to choose the better one with no nostalgia and concert bias

keen knot
#

nostalgia would be the older song

deep spear
#

|| I still think addict with a pen deserves more hype ||

coarse bane
#

awap has rap has screams has better lyrics has better piano

#

reaaaaally listen

coarse bane
keen knot
#

awap also a concert song KEKW

#

i’m not gonna let u win this one

coarse bane
#

that doesn't even compare what are you saying

elfin osprey
#

as someone whose never been to a concert i voted awap

coarse bane
#

no one goes to concert to experience awap live people remember concert by trees drums and confetti

#

you can't possibly call any song that's played live a concert song in this context you know exactly what I mean

steel prism
#

as someone whose been to a concert i voted addict with a pen

keen knot
#

unfortunately trees is just the better song addict with a pen is fine I enjoy it but trees means much more to many more people

quaint harbor
#

i try desperately to run through the sand

brazen steeple
#

this is why yall shouldve voted rab trees.

steel prism
#

the visual and sensory lyrics and experience of awap is unrivalled

coarse bane
#

as long as they're voting for the song and not the huge bias it has

elfin osprey
#

i did vote rab trees

brazen steeple
#

mystic did you give tygr their reward

#

for winning the bet

coarse bane
#

it's not the better song

brazen steeple
#

answer mystic !!

keen knot
#

the bias it has comes from how good of a song it is you can’t just sit here and assume since trees is the closer that no one likes it for itself 💀

brazen steeple
#

mystic are you voting awap

coarse bane
brazen steeple
#

correct

abstract zealot
#

oh, this is easy

coarse bane

#

yeah awap clearly clears

good

coarse bane
#

DONT FEED IT

keen knot
#

trees is a juggernaut and it deserves it

brazen steeple
#

it does not.

#

the only thing going for it is the live performance

#

as a song it doesnt hold up

#

if trees wasnt the finale you wouldnt care

#

its not even a single

coarse bane
#

shut up paris I want real arguments for trees not "trees better" cuz everyone can do that

keen knot
#

bold of you to say

steel prism
#

trees is an experience addict with a pen is a song

simple current
coarse bane

#

then what's the problem

keen knot
simple current
#

it's not a bias

coarse bane
simple current
#

it geniunely inhanced the song for me

coarse bane
#

listen to both songs and judge songs not confettib

brazen steeple
#

okay but were not voting for enhancements were voting for songs

past ruin
#

voted awap cause vessel has aged worse than self titled imo

coarse bane
brazen steeple
#

FINALLY FELLOW VESSEL SLANDERERS

#

IT HAS AGED SO POORLY

simple current
#

I'm not judging the confetti the experience of the song with fans as a closer made it special for me even when just listening to the song

brazen steeple
#

okay but this is song battle not experience with fans battle

steel prism
#

addict with a pen is so raw

past ruin
#

maybe he just likes the song better lol

#

holy shit we are not gatekeeping fucking song battles

vote for what you want

yea what

#

mystic i’ve been on this server for 7 years lmfao

brazen steeple
#

were just providing arguments for our side ?

#

why are you mad

#

its not that deep bfr

simple current
steel prism
#

tyler sounds thirsty in the song and the visual of sand and water seeping through fingers and cracked lips and the desperate cry and the bubbly sound effects washing over you is so

brazen steeple
#

its really not

coarse bane
brazen steeple
#

it has like maybe 2 lines of unique writing

#

its so repetitive and bland

keen knot
#

yall are sitting here saying “everyone voting trees is only voting it because of the confetti!!!” that’s not an argument you’re immediately shutting everything down when someone says they like trees because your first thought is “well this must be because of concerts!”

past ruin
#

In my self titled playlist addict with a pen comes first because I think it makes a better opener than implicit demand for proof

brazen steeple
#

okay and ? were right

keen knot
#

thanks for proving my point

#

lol

coarse bane
brazen steeple
#

your point doesnt make sense tho.

simple current
# brazen steeple its so repetitive and bland

it uses build up and different delivery of the same verse to enhance the message of his desparation to feel a connection with religion and that someone is listening to him, leading to an emotional synthy screamy ending

#

popular!=bad

keen knot
#

my point is that you’re diminishing other peoples preferred song by immediately banging it into the ground saying that they only like it bc of concerts

brazen steeple
#

lmao nobody is saying popular=bad

#

what

#

isnt the point of song battles to argue ?

steel prism
#

i wonder what stressed out will go against

keen knot
#

I never said it wasn’t but when I point out that all you’re doing is shitting on the song you don’t get to just say uhhh no we’re not ur point doesn’t make sense :p

brazen steeple
#

and yea i agree about trees using the simplicity but it just doesnt work for me

#

were not shitting

coarse bane
brazen steeple
#

i like trees

obsidian lake
#

Sometimes you just like a song because you like the song, not other reason shrugs Me personally, I voted trees because I like the beat better, I recognize addict is a fucking masterpiece lyrically, but the rest kinds blends into one thing for me, but on trees I can appretiate everything a bit more

brazen steeple
#

its just nowhere near the level of mastery that awap showcases

brazen steeple
#

and its frustrating that trees has this like impenetrable mythos in the fandom bc its the concert closer

simple current
# brazen steeple lmao nobody is saying popular=bad

you said that it's not a good song and people only like it because it's a show closer or am i wrong? that quite literally implies that you think it's popularity amongst fans and on the setlist is what makes it loved and not the actual quality of it. again just my understanding

keen knot
#

anyway the reason I prefer trees is because i’m not a huge fan of the in your face religious aspect of awap and I prefer the open book style of trees where your interpretation of it decides what it truly means to you

coarse bane
#

but I will resume my anti trees campaign

brazen steeple
#

but as a song like yea its a good song but its inflated

keen knot
#

trees is kinda just kitchen sink but better for midnight walks

elfin osprey
#

while i enjoy trees i just like awap more

brazen steeple
#

trees and kitchen sink have completely different themes what

#

if anything trees and awap have similar themes

#

and awap gets it across better

brazen steeple
keen knot
#

the fact that its meaning is left to interpretation is what I mean by its similarity to kitchen sink

brazen steeple
#

but both feel very religious to me tho

keen knot
#

oh ya for sure

I put my own meaning to songs as a non Christian and as someone who doesn't know Christian lore I am able to not think of religion while listening to it

keen knot
#

but I think awap is like

#

RIGHT in your face about it

#

there’s really not a whole lot of considering different meanings

narrow kernel
#

FUCK YOU ALL VOTE FOR ADDICT WITH A PEN.

simple current
#

look awap is amazing and my favourite on st, but I just find trees to be a really powerful song and I have a strong emotional connection to it

steel prism
#

you hear me screaming daddy so wash me with your water

#

help

coarse bane
#

there are songs I can't turn it off like ATACAD

simple current

even before the show

no

crimson lichen
brazen steeple

but trees isnt bad , per say

narrow kernel
#

i am THE awap lover

brazen steeple
#

i really like rab trees especially

#

so im mad it didnt win

elfin osprey
#

i keep forgetting they have a ton of christian themes so i really just latch to the depression part

brazen steeple
#

and will not be voting for the lesser version

narrow kernel
#

tbh i dont really ever think about religion with awap

steel prism
brazen steeple
steel prism
#

ye m not christian but i love the desperation in it

simple current
brazen steeple
#

yea

#

if anything trees feels more religious to me

#

which is another reason i like it less

coarse bane
#

trees is nice and I like this trees (haha 420) but vote awap

narrow kernel
#

i take it to mean something like desperation for a purpose, and idk man it really resonates with me

brazen steeple
#

like it feels more christian than religious as a whole

simple current
#

trees is more about asking for proof of something that you believe in, in this case god becaue you're struggling to keep believing. as an agnostic ish person living in a fairly religious society it's relatable to me

#

and not even christian but still its powerful

brazen steeple
#

that makes sense. im religious but not christian , and trees is just so christian yk

coarse bane
#

awap doesn't give me huge religion vibes either

brazen steeple
#

whereas addict is about creativity and also your relationship w higher powers and that really resonates

#

but yea awap is more about creating yk

coarse bane
#

there are more religious songs

simple current
brazen steeple
#

eh not to me

simple current
#

i feel like rab has more christianish songs

narrow kernel
#

i think anyone can take it to mean anything really

simple current
#

idk

elfin osprey
brazen steeple
#

but again its up to interpretation

coarse bane
narrow kernel
#

i personally dont take trees or awap as religious lol

coarse bane
#

atacad is very in your face that I can't listen to it

blazing nebula
coarse bane
#

yes

elfin osprey
#

i don't take atacad as religious either

flint tree
#

ugh both of these songs mean so much to me

simple current
# blazing nebula march to the sea 😭

that's an example of a great song i enjoy a lot but i don't relate to the religious aspect of it as a non christian so i have my own interpretation and stuff

steel prism
#

the lyrics in awap e.g.
"i havent been the best"
"i try my best and all that i can"
"im just being dramatic"
"as a walking denial"

give me such a deepset sense of self shame and disappointment that hits way too hard

narrow kernel
#

its fucking devastating but it means so much to me

steel prism
#

like, apologizing for just. existing

#

fr

peak apex
#

this should be a no brainer

narrow kernel
#

i love awap its genuinely my favourite song of all time

peak apex
#

if anyone votes trees theyre trollinh

#

they have to be

steel prism
#

and just the sense that youre 'dirty' and 'wrong' in some way... man

elfin osprey
#

"But no matter how, how tightly I will strain
The sand will slow me down and the water will drain" this, this hits way too hard

narrow kernel
#

trees live, is fucking amazing but the studio ver doesnt hit as hard

coarse bane
brazen steeple
#

yeah namedropping god is hard to ignore

#

i take acatad more about clancy lore now and i really like the main verse but i used to feel that way so hard

simple current
#

Idk i don't think clancy lore was being built that early

steel prism
simple current
#

it's somewhat possible but for some reason I think it's just holding onto theories

brazen steeple
#

it wasnt , but like the themes are there

#

yk

simple current
#

oh yea i get that

elfin osprey
#

could be it's something that hes had the idea of for a while

coarse bane
#

I think you can interpret song however you want despite what it is originally wrote about that's the beauty of it

#

relate it to your own experiences

steel prism
#

hell yea n i love seeing yalls diff takes on it religious or not

simple current
# elfin osprey could be it's something that hes had the idea of for a while

yes, but I think that it only really started lightly with bf and then the actual lore got built up in trench. the repeated themes across their music connects them but I also feel like the lore stuff even in vessel is quite loose and they are standalone, maybe they will decide to make them loreish now but idk

steel prism
#

i also love how the first few 'hello's in tree are meek and hesitant

coarse bane
#

he could've created dema lore to match older songs

steel prism
#

I want to sAAAAAAAYYY
..hello

simple current
blazing nebula
elfin osprey
blazing nebula
#

esp with acatad

coarse bane
#

and don't forget that Josh said that a lot of lore was inspired by our theories and we tend to connect older songs to lore

obsidian lake
#

To me Trees is about how no matter how alone you feel, you're not. Even when you feel like no one's listening, there's someone there, who might feel the same way you do, and you just want to say hello to each other but your anxieties don't let you, until you do, and idk start fuckign having a party in the trees

steel prism
#

so yea basically the shadow in ur head that goes u suck!!!

blazing nebula
#

even after a relisten of both

steel prism
#

is this gonna be close 🤔

blazing nebula
#

i dont think so

obsidian lake
blazing nebula
#

i think enough people picked trees and didnt even think of talking ab it

steel prism
#

true

elfin osprey
#

awap just is more relatable with my current mindest

obsidian lake
#

Yeah most likely

steel prism
#

yea i mostly see the same ppl in these threads

elfin osprey
#

yeah

blazing nebula
#

awap people definitely came in to fight because it feels like it doesnt have a chance

#

while trees people saw the "oh you only like it because of the concerts" and decided it wasnt worth arguing

#

which honestly, such a bold and rude assumption

steel prism
#

what about forest vs trees

blazing nebula
#

forest

#

for sure

elfin osprey
#

forest

steel prism
#

real

obsidian lake
#

So fucking true

steel prism
#

they put trees and simply added more trees in there

strange rock

Connect them to together because there is no forest without trees👨‍🏫

#

This battle could go either way tbh

my prediction is that this is going to be one of the most voted on battles

judging by chat and not only "loud campaigners" this might actually be close 🤞

trees DID win specifically because of the live love
