    I've been listening to this album for over ten years, and the key change in this song at 1:23 gets me every single time. It's so perfectly perfect.

    The video is about the advancement of edm. Its showing that even musican are beginning to become obsolete. Its saying a lot more then I think a lot of people understand. The people who have acquired mass amounts of money over the last hundered years are moveing passed the people who did not. Sooner or later we are all going to be out sourced whether you make your living working in a factory, your a mechanic, nurse, grocery story clerk or musician the rich are looking for replacements for us all.

    I'm not in love with the modern world
    I'm not in love with the modern world
    It was a torch driving the savages back to the trees
    Modern world has motorways
    And automation in a senseless chain
    While the people go out and the people come home again
    [Verse 2]
    It's got lies to build up your eyes
    And a lifetime of red skies
    And from my bed, the sound of haunting, hissing in the bed
    Modern world don't ask why
    Cause modern world will build things high
    Now they house canyons filled with life
    [Refrain]
    Modern world, I'm not pleased to meet you
    You just bring me down

    Modern world has more ways
    And I don't mention it since it's changed
    While the people go out and the people come home again
    It's gotta last to build up your eyes
    And a lifetime of red skies
    And from my bed the sound of your haunted hissing in my bed
    Modern world don't ask why
    Cause modern world will build things high
    Now they house canyons filled with life
    Modern world I'm not pleased to meet you
    You just bring me down
    Modern world I'm not pleased to meet you
    You just bring me down

    Listening to this song makes me very unhappy. Evokes memories only of hopes allayed, senses diminished. That bridge's resolution to the problem posed by its antecedent development seems like such an enigma to me now. Time, how it effects the disposition.

    Maybe, but people still wash dishes, we still use paper, concerts still play and artists still use canvases and paint. Computers and machines certainly are a part of our lives, as they have been for centuries. Things have always changed, but are rarely replaced completely. People themselves haven't changed in 100,000 years, even if our technology changes, we like real, visceral experiences. Did facebook REPLACE talking to your friends? I doubt it. Technology is supplemental to being human.

    When I listen to this song, I feel like I'm banging my head against wall - but the guitar solo is irresistable. I'd like an instrumental version of this one. Just with a choir or a cello in place of vocals. about 15% of lyrics are contaminated anyway. That is why I can not say that everytime I listen to this song I delightfully dwell in existencial pain - there's this contamination factor - instead it opens up a set of discussions about topics I'd rather forget about.
