    Believe it or not, that breathing sound is the drum beat of the original song.

      sure, what else? it's the same song played much slower and there is nothing else that could be it. and you can imagine that it would sound like the "beat"..the i think noises out of the mechanic room.

    This song, for me, validates every intuitive feeling I have about what this life truly is. It is the question and the answer. A summation of all the struggle, the failed attempts at love, all the wounds we refused to let heal. Everything is okay now. All that was is now our evolution in hindsight. Every struggle was just a stroke upon the canvas of this rare form of art we call life. This is our enlightenment, seen through the wise lens of Time. If the story of life was written in musical notes, this would be the song. Play this at my funeral, a reminder that these bodies are just our vehicles to get home.

    You see a gigantic whale floating through space. Its purple skin is glistening in the warm light of a far star. You can hear her breathe. You don't know how she does it in the void of space, but her magnificence is so overwhelming that you refuse to question this beauty. She glides with elegant, mighty movements of her body, drawing a line through the dust ring of a nearby planet. You get closer and closer, as the creature reveals its true size. She looks at you with one eye, acknowledging your existence like a kind god. She nods her head and you find the courage to touch her. As you caress her skin, a million grains of sparkling emerald dust rise and fly into the depths of space. You feel the warmth of life with every breath the whale takes, and you know there is nothing to fear in this endless universe.

    This is interesting because Brian was commissioned to make music for a computer company that lasted a few seconds long and he said he quite liked the challenge of working at that nano level.....here is the exact opposite. Taking a composition and expanding and distorting it beyond comprehension.

      ***** I find this works well, but it takes a different style of listening. "Holding the moment in your mind" until the "change" happens. I find this slowed down version is proof of this song's masterpiece. Even slow as fuck - it's still consistently of extremely high quality. Many good songs sound wrong slowed down and silly sped up.. This just sounds different, but equally good. I do agree however, that Brian knows best - or he'd have released the song in this way himself.

    _Another Green World_ will be noted centuries from now as a breakthrough. Eno came out of the pop/rock genre and blew it wide open . . . to be parallel with anything the modern classical or progressive jazz was doing. But then he threw in very serious singer-songwriter stuff that created a sort of novel, beacon English Zen as well. He grew up hearing American Doo-wop schlock, ferchissake! It's like Albert Einstein's parents were Idi Amin and Imelda Marcos. Hitching your wagon to a star, indeed.

    • @stonesgrass
      @stonesgrass Рік тому

      Recent searching for sleep music due to insomnia, I have encountered songs with similar cord progressions (1-5-6-4, which is very common-think two dozen TSwift tunes) and one with this exact chord progression (1-4-6-4-1-5-6-4-1), which immediately brought my mind to The Big Ship. I suggest this is a nod to Brian Eno and his writing and composition genius. But none use the less common 12/8 time signature. The resolution from 4 to 1 is beautiful. I always thought about this song being slowed down to drone/ambient pace. And here it is. The song doesn’t have a beginning or end. Conflict resolution on repeat. A bit of rambling there. Point is I find this one of my favorites on a favorite record of all time (Another Green World). Thank you for this version (saved)

    This is cool. It is funny though, I always thought "Becalmed" from the same Eno album was just "The Big Ship" slowed down.

    • @jakebrannon25
      @jakebrannon25 2 роки тому +1

      Yes! I have a theory about this, though I have nothing to back it up. The piano on Becalmed has a warbly magnetic tape effect going on. This makes me wonder if The Big Ship originally had this piano track, but it was later removed. Eno could have reused that track and slowed it down for Becalmed, which would explain why the chords are transposed down. Recycling a track for The Big Ship + Synth track = Becalmed.
