Some of the best lyricism I've heard in a while and delivered in such a beautifully clear tone
"You're not tied up
here comes the train
The tracks feel safe
because you know 'em"
Probably not disturbing per se, so not sure how well I’m answering your question but this one is haunting for me. Watched this scene in the wake of my dad’s death, had never heard this song before and it ripped me open.
I’ve thought about this waaaaay too much. at the end of my movie, im old, completely alone, and dying of lung cancer. in the hospital, my heart flatlines. The nurse has left the room, busy with other patients. No one notices I’ve died. This song starts playing. the credits start rolling over the following scene: cut to me on a vast, empty road somewhere in rural idaho. a border collie leads me down the vacant road. she runs back and forth across the road, barking at me, telling me to keep following her. we are utterly free. no one but the two of us. i smile.
By Gustave Caillebotte. I’ve never seen light be painted like this. I’d never been stopped in my tracks by a painting before this. This was considered “vulgar” in its time. The fuck did those nerds know.
