I return to this comment under Hiroshi Yoshimuraās Dance PM when I need a good cry. He chose this song to play during his fatherās funeral. Also reminded me of Chia Amisolaās Sound of Love project. Shuffles random songs overlaid with wistful YouTube comments.
Thinking about Brian Wilson. And also they chopped down my favorite tree at work and Iām being so emo about it I may or may not be crying in the work bathroom rn to this song. They didnāt even send an email or anything that there was going to be tree removal. I literally went into work yesterday and came out and she was gone. And she used to drop the cutest smallest little leaves onto the grass, and when I walked out to my car I would step on them and it would feel kind of light and spongy, like moss because of all her leaves that were hugging the grass around my feet. And after a long shift I always enjoyed the few steps i got to walk under her. And now sheās just a stump and I feel a little lost. Iām such an emotionally avoidant person but sometimes little things get to me. Anyways. Thank god for this devastating song. Be kind to each other and to the trees
1969 (on steaming as the first part of his American Trilogy collection) Despite the consistent rain and thunder sound effects at the edges of the songs, this thing is sincerely sad. Itās cold morning of the soul type music. With songs like āI Donāt Think Much About Her No Moreā (ok sure buddy) and lyrics like āyesterdays gone lord, itās better forgotten/ like the poison red berries to die on the vineāā¦ it makes me smile in a way only some truly despondent music can. Mickey is keeping a close watch on the sky and remains fixated on his solitude, but heās also whistling a lot, so maybe heās gonna be ok?
