    I remember listening to this as I would walk home from college to my house which was about 10 blocks away. Always at night. I had no idea at the time that wonderful period of my life was ending, what I would consider the final days of a blessed childhood, and I got this weird feeling every time I listened to this song that something big was about to change and I should savor every second of those walks home while staring at the radio tower lights in the distance.

    My favorite thing about music, and art in general, is how it can illicit a kind of ambiguous emotional response that you can't quite explain. This track is one of the best examples of that for me, thanks Daniel.

      @@solarium001 he's referred to 2006-2013 as his "existential dread" period, so it definitely lines up... it's made even less subtle when you realize he makes several references to emil cioran in his work from this era. it comforts me seeing how many others take similar meaning from his music
