    “Music is more powerful, when there’s less of it.” -Jóhann Jóhannsson
    There’s a beautiful and complex simplicity in this music. And I don’t think melancholy describes it accurately. Perhaps we feel something that we think is sadness or melancholy, but really, what we FEEL is more complex than the simple names that we prescribed as emotions. This seems to be a metaphor for a mothers love; something as a male I could never UNDERSTAND, but being raised as by single mother I think I FELT. JJ - Thank you for letting us FEEL what we can’t explain with words. Rest in power.

      Beautifully said ❤ I fancy myself a writer now and then, so I love explaining and describing things through words… but you are absolutely spot on that some feelings simply cannot be described. And that’s why music is so powerful. It says what words cannot. And we feel it, and we know it, and we try to explain it but find we cannot… so we just keep listening 🧡🧡🧡

    I think this piece of art has so much to say about parenthood; the parent tries their best to teach the child how to float, but eventually they have to let them leave their arms. And afterwards, they struggle to form a new identity, one that isn't tied to their child. But ultimately, as we tend to do, the child returns, because she'll always need her mother.
    I don't know, I love it. I'm not a parent. I'm a 30 yer old single man, I have no sisters, I just know I still need my mom sometimes. I bawled watching this.

    Here's what I'm getting from this. A mother is raising her daughter to prepare her for the world, and holds her close for comfort as though she's scared of the world herself and just wants to cherish her daughter. When the day finally comes for her daughter to go off into the world, she becomes a jumbled mess, with the impression of her "forgetting how to swim" as if she is now just unsteady and needs her daughter. Then we see the daughter just gracefully swimming and her movements are odd, as if she's learning to cope with the world around her without the comfort of her mother. The mom's swimming starts to become more calm as if she too is learning to cope without her daughter, and then her daughter comes back, implying that no matter what happens, her mother will always be there to run back to.
    Not sure what you guys think, but this is what comes to mind for me.

      I think that is very spot on. I think the video is a representation of the love between a parent and a child. I view my son this way. I think that while I may be hard on him sometime, he knows I want the best for him. It may seem backwards, shy of true feeling and overall a not-so-nice way of raising a young man. I think that a child should be made aware of "meanness" out there, as well as love, from their parents. I Love my son more than anything, and would literally do the most difficult thing for him, if I thought it was in his best interest. And right now, that is helping him understand respect and kindness, at the same time. I Love you buddy!

      ​@@Avatar1601 I think you have the right of it, as I see it. What I most wanted in life I will never have and that is to be a mother. It was only after many, many years of trying that I learned I am unable to bear children. I will never feel the magical movement of a child in my womb, I will never cradle and feed my newborn, I will never experience the joyous highs and exquisite lows of being a parent and these are the truths I've wrestled with... for the last five years as I enter my mid-forties. A circlet of thorns around my heart that I can never remove, leaving me always bruised and sore. It's a difficult transition for one's internal mantra to shift from "it's not too late" to "it is too late now". 'Accept' and 'make peace with' are not yet a part of my vernacular. Nobody died but it is a death all the same. Forgive me, I hadn't intended to divulge what I don't talk about with even those closest to me. Odd, this. In any case, what I'd wanted to communicate to you is that I've learned so many vital lessons from my own mother, who I once thought was too harsh - even abusive, at times. I moved back in with her after my father passed, at which time her compromised health had taken a significant turn South. She's unable to walk across a room now, and I do my best to keep her spirits up. I've heard so often that it's having a child that teaches you the nature of unconditional love. I believe my ability to love without conditions I learned by adhering to the wisdom of an African proverb, which is to "follow the umbilical cord".
      I was much closer to my father and in the days before he died I promised him I would never allow her to be put in a nursing home, I'd never leave her to have to face the trials of old age and sickness alone. What I didn't know then is that my commitment would bring me the greatest blessing I've had and will ever have in my life. Taking care of my mom has turned into a privilege and a gift, as we've grown closer than I ever thought possible. I know who she is now, and though she's capable of making me angrier than anyone else, she also brings me the most joy and comfort.
      I have an uncanny ability to get lost in tangents that move across land and sea, countless miles from where I'd originally intended to illustrate my point. What I wanted to say to you is this: it seems to me you could do your son no better service than to reveal to him the difficulties life can unexpectedly throw at us, trip us up and even knock us down at times; how unfair and unforgiving and cold the world is capable of being, at times. If you can teach your son not only how to be resilient and self-reliant, but further how to get beyond his own self-involvement in order to witness, even learn from, the hardships others go through, you've done your job well. If he experiences trials and tribulations and failures, he's not special... he is human. If you can teach him to recognize that everyone is flawed and we are all helpless sometimes - if he develops the capacity for compassion and patience, how to be tolerant and accepting of himself and others, you've done your job beautifully. You want the very best for your child, you want him to not only survive what the world can throw at us but thrive in spite of it. Trust your instincts and believe in the skills you've cultivated as a parent in order to guide your son and teach him the discipline necessary to become an adult. You're providing him with the lessons he'll need to grow into a man of integrity who is capable of making his own way in the world. A human who is wholly in touch with his own humanity. Does that make sense? As a childless woman, I'm the last person anyone would go to for parenting advice. To that end, I ought to clarify my intention - which is not to provide advice but to affirm what it seems you're already doing. I'm not sure if it was an undercurrent of self-doubt I detected in your post or just a concern that your son may misinterpret the reasons you parent him as you do. Either way, I felt compelled to validate your thoughts and sentiments. I wish you and your family a present and future full of blessings.

    I remember the first Johannsson track I heard was Odi et Amo, and I thought to myself; if anyone heard me listening to this, they'd probably think I was hugely depressed. In fact, the truth couldn't be more in contrast; I was blissful. Johann's music incites contemplation and reflection in a very unique way. I though the same of Fordlandia too, the first record I listened to of his in entirety.
    This album stirs the very same emotions for me. Fantastic work, Johann Johannsson; I thank you very much.

    without #JóhannJóhannsson and HIS MUSIC the world would be much less than what it is now. Wish i could seen this guy live. RIP
    I wanted to persue a career in Music or Cooking or IT | infosec and Computers won...however I am very much moved by music still to this day and how its composed and the brilliant minds behind it. I truly admire people like this the song def touch me first time hearing it which was today 5-5-2022

    I just found out about Jóhann Jóhannsson during a music-searching spree. This is the first song I heard and it became my favorite of his. It's disheartening to learn he passed away so young, at the peak of his artistic career. This is such a simple, yet so deeply-moving piece. The progression is so similar, yet every new wave of notes feels fresh and almost unexpected. A tranquil, yet tragic piece. RIP.

    Such beautiful sensitive images to accompany this all consuming track. It brought me to tears however when the image of the migrant from El Salvador, who drowned earlier this year, along with his daughter trying to cross the Rio Grande for a better life, flashed into my mind. Like much of Johanne's work this is full of beauty and peace but also sadness.
