I wish I could just sit down with him for an hour and try to understand how his brain works. I think I would cry at the beauty of it.

first came across this while recording my first studio album, the recording engineer said i should listen to this song and I've been listening to this version for many years now... it is incredible that one human did all that, considering how perfect it is.

@radiodead745 Жыл бұрын

That is exactly how I found him also!! I've now seen him 6 times and Radiohead 5 times! What is kinda crazy is that after a little digging I'm pretty sure Radiohead was there on the same date, and on the next album Thom put out Give Up The Ghost!! Also a sample/ loop song!!! Did he witness Andrew playing and wrote that song?? Kinda a huge coincidence if not!

When I'm walking down the street; I sometimes have this incredible urge to look at someone's eyes for a prolonged period of time; as they pass me by; I look at their facial gestures to figure out how they are exactly feeling in life. And also, whether they've ever experienced anything similar to what I am experiencing at 5:16. A point that breaks through time and space and makes some room for itself for an indefinite amount of time. I feel like I'm one of those lucky bunch who has gotten to experience it. And I'm truly glad.

I often look people directly in the eye walking down the street as well; 100%, without fail, I can tell they're feeling uncomfortable.

I think he kicks his shoes off for a practical reason: to turn the knob on the delay pedal with his foot to get that pitch-bendy sound at the end…still legendary though.

This isn't your song This isn't your music How can there be wrong When by committee they choose it all They choose it all now Turn, turn You're gonna grow old You're gonna grow so cold Bearing signs on the avenue We'll fight, well fought For your music halls And your dying cities They'll fight They'll fight for your neural walls And your plasticities And precious territory And precious territory This isn't our song This isn't even a musical Isn't life too long To be a whale in a cubicle Nails under your cuticle Turn, turn You're gonna grow old You're gonna grow so cold Before this song can deliver you You're bearing signs on the avenue, ooooh oh We'll fight, well fought For your music halls And your dying cities They'll fight For your neural walls And your plasticities

I guess I can finally say the most cliche thing on youtube ... "First" haha. But on the real, I'm hoping to see more from the basement performances in the near future. Especially seeing Andrew Bird, Radiohead (come back to do AMSP), and other acts new and old return.
