For some reason I thought of this one although I havenāt listened to it for years. It just has this nostalgic feeling you got even after the release back in 00ās. It both has very simple lyrics and complex guitar melody. Itās so Bob Dylan coded but almost just a product of its time. It pats you on the back but you donāt know when you became a friend. It makes you listen to it quite a few times to decipher it (but luckily unsuccessfully).
I first found this song right at the beginning of 2024. My first reaction was āDamn! Thatās a perfect song.ā My reaction now is⦠the same thing.
The lyrics are a little bit cryptic and nonsensical and thatās quite alright.
This is one of those songs that is what you make it. The tone is upbeat and bittersweet wrapped together, making it a perfect song to associate with specific memories, like I know I have.
I remember listening to this a lot during my senior year of college with my big winter jacket & boots on, walking around campus. It made me feel like I was in a weird mystery coming of age movie. Weirdly nostalgic now. I wish I could listen to this album for the first time again. <3
I havenāt been here for more than half a year, canāt even say why (although no, I can, but I wonāt). And luckily it didnāt change, itās still a cozy and friendly community with love for the best things modernity has. Thanks for saving it as it is.
I recently discovered mine, Samsung CD Yepp to be exact, and it changed the way I listen to music. I started listening to full albums again instead of just singles you can easily stream. For me itās not about sound quality, although it matters of course, but mostly about consciousness. Since then I collected my mini-collection of CDs I will pass to my children. Kinda regret I got rid of old phones, especially BenQ-Siemens EL71, but hope to thrift it one day
