The second verse always gives me chills.
I think the third verse is a commentary on rap, and possibly ones goals and dreams overall: "The same alleys we used to imagine Babylon, feel like abandoned malls overgrown with Spanish moss..." == "The NYC alleys we grew up rapping in while dreaming of the future are now desolate. My life, and rap, isn't what I thought it would be. What were once hopes and dreams now feel empty and meaningless." That's what I think. Or maybe it's a commentary on the city itself
That makes a lot of sense!
Actually now makes me think of the alleys i used to hang out in 😃. Pretty much empty and overgrown too.
Thanks again for this request! Onto the next 😃
One of my many favorite things about Aes is how he names his songs. He picks a random word from that song and uses it for the title!
That first verse he’s talking about teaching his dead friends daughter how to skateboard. Not Camu, but a different friend that passed recently. This song is brutally raw, I love it so much
3:20 synesthesia is the blending of senses, like math geniuses that talk about how they can see the answer to math problems in colors, or even “that smells like 42”. I believe “synesthetic cousin” would be its audible counterpart
Thanks for lettign me know about that. Learned something new :)
Think about how much life malls used to have and all the joy it would bring you as a little kid and now seeing it abounded empty/hollow how depressing that is all life and joy is gone. Just an empty shell of what wants was.
This song is about coping with the loss his friend Kurt Hayashi. That should put a lot of the cryptic lyrics in context
Catatonic= Buffering. Love that.
😅
2:45 when we mix primary colors, we get secondary colors, but red is the lowest frequency of visible light and violet is the highest. What if animals can perceive different “octaves” of light frequency?
Birds can for example. They see the sky more as purple/violet as it really is. We only percieve what are senses allow us to percieve. But it might not always be the best representation of objective reality.
another one of ur reactions where i was bummed at the song choice, but at the end i like the song more than i did before i watched ur reaction!!! GLORIOUS! THANK YOU, YOUR AES REACTIONS ARE A GIFT! just saw the next one you did i kyanite Toothpick!!! we'll see if you can get me to like the song vs me cursing whoever led you to the song LOL
Synaesthesia is that thing where you take acid and start seeing sounds, tasting colors or hearing smells.
Thanks for letting me know!
@@SaeedReacts. always and forever 👍🏼
I love this channel because you react to wide variety of music...but really good music.
There is this person you must react to called ERUTAN. She Plays at least 16 different instruments on her own and sings ALL the voices as well as makes her own arrangements. The amazing thing is most of the instruments she plays are medieval instruments like the Lute and Baroque guitar as well as exotic stuff like the ocarina. Darned difficult to play things like that.
She does covers of computer game themes but believe me , even though I have a strong background in classical music I have never heard such spectacularly beautiful arrangements.
And her voice is just heavenly , sometimes reminds me of Enya.
The sad thing is She stopped posting music 5 years ago after she lost her voice😢. Hope she gets better, she is a forest fairy, definitely not human.
PLEASE....❤❤ do at least one reaction you'll get lost in that wonderful voice and world.
React to these songs in order of my preference
1. THE WILLOW MAID

2.ANSWERS from final fantasy ua-cam.com/video/ZKL2EKXFE-c/v-deo.htmlsi=7nQWrrK7TjkaWUra
3. ITSUMO NANDO DEMO

Thanks for the kind words and for sharing this.
Sad to hear that she is not able to sing anymore.
Hope i can check some out at some point.
earth wind fire water aether / earth wind fire and papaya
just occured to me that earth wind fire water aether might reference Captain Planet, who was made of earth, fire, wind, water and heart.
I had to look that up. Wasnt familiar with it.
@@SaeedReacts. oh, dude, we're the same age, 88 baby, how is Cpt Planet not a building block of your childhood? It was my first (and worst) superhero. He could fly, and use the elements to do whatever, but if you flicked a cigarette butt at him, he'd go limp from the wanton pollution.
Captain Planet is basically soft liberal anti-eco terrorism terrorism (It's not a typo) the cartoon.
@@durere I dont know if it made it to Belgium. If it did, i missed it 😅
Can you react to Aesop Rock Churro please won't be disappointed
Thanks for the recommendation!
