    I can listen to this song over and over again. I have autism and when a song does that to me, I know it's truly a great one. The whole album is awesome

      Same here, friend, I'm not diagnosed with autism. But I'm quite sure now you mention this. This thrills us so much. I can't understand why any other human being is not being blown away by this.

    With this song on repeat i watched the sun go down over a hectic cross section down town. For over 20 minutes i stood there, ignoring the cold creeping up my toes. In awe of the symbioses of music and flowing images. It seemed like the world fast forwarded. And just when i was about to go home the sun illuminated an airplane from beyond the horizon. The igniting of a sulphur head of a match, slowly drawing an immaculate white line. Like it had not a care in the world. Effortlessly gliding, unaware of it's busy schedule.

    They wrote and recorded this recently but when I listen to it I am transported back to 1988/89/90/91, somewhere around that time and I am young again and my whole future is ahead of me. I haven't made any of those many mistakes I know I am going to make and the world is a place full of possibilities and potential yet to be discovered.
    The fact they can make music that makes me feel this way is testament to the fact I shouldn't feel resigned to the idea of the future no longer being an undiscovered wilderness full of wonder. To make music like this you have to be able to still feel this way about the world and if they can, perhaps so can I. Wonderful track.
