This is the sort of new wave stuff, we've been waiting for from the "now & snowflake generation” by gingoEs we've found something - brilliant stuff, love it :)
I don't make 'top lists' of bands/songs (because it's pointless and I'm not a character in High Fidelity) but I know that if I was to, this song would be somewhere very high up on such a list. It's fun, sad, beautiful, suspenseful, and magical all at the same time: a masterpiece. I'm so grateful that there are talented musicians and creators alive that can produce such amazing music which evokes myriad of emotions and feelings. I hope everyone reading this is having a good day, but if you're not, I hope this song can give you 6 minutes of respite.
This has appeared in my recommended as I’m listening to lcd in a wave of nostalgia for the months I spent in Sweden some years ago. Back then I listened to This is Happening in loop bc it sounded as estranged as I was, and I had a peak of happiness on a sunny day when I visited Stockholm alone and spent one entire morning on some rocks in hornstull that looked exactly like the ones in this video, looking at the view on the city hall on the other side of the river and talking online with the girl I liked who was back in mother country and trying not to fall asleep bc I had spent the night in a crappy hostel nearby. I then proceeded to walk on probably the same bridge as these guys, feeling like the best was ahead of me. Which might have been a foolish feeling. I might be wrong though and this is certainly too much information
Not a day goes by i dont think of my best friend Jamie who i lost close to 10 years ago when we were in high school today . he killed himself one night because of complications with a medication . i woke up the next morning to my mother screaming into the telephone . i always shudder when a phone rings in the morning because of that moment they called to tell me he was gone . he really was my best friend, and someone great . I had a dream about him the other night, we were adults, he was my age, i am now 24. i wonder what he would be like, now . anyway, this song caught me in that feeling . i think about him everyday and now i have a song to remind me even more of his lasting memory . thanks -- nicholas .
Reminds me of a girl that i was in love with in high school. she showed me this song our junior year.we graduated in 2009. I hope you're well, Alison. I've still never met a girl as amazing and as special as you. xox
