apples (lil album 🍎)

[@cooltowm]

this sounds like rollerskating in fall

[@thenicehermit5036]

Can someone explain ?

[@cooltowm]

im no good with words, its the feeling i get when rollerskating with all the orange and yellow leaves crunching under me, if i could put that experience into a song it would sound like this album

[@thenicehermit5036]

@@cooltowm Oh ok. Thanks for the explanation !

[@oOVanillaMelOo]

I agree! Or walking with my dog in the forest in October with the crunchy leaves and the smell of the crisp air 😊❤️

[@reginaldcaldwell2951]

Your profile pic is really cool, do you have a link to the image?

[@MisterAppleEsq]

Okay, obviously Louie didn't write this album with me in mind, but the reason my username is apple themed is because I really do love the fruit, and it's weirdly touching to me that a musician I admire has dedicated some of their time to creating something that appreciates this good crunchy fruit I like. I don't know why this dumb username coincidence had me so emotional, but it does. Man I love apples, both the fruit and album.
