This song makes me feel better, but not much.

i don't think ive heard anything that so perfectly encapsulates feeling miserable

This is their saddest song, like going to the grocery store without any intention to buy a fucking thing.

thecatamites said he started Space Funeral as an excuse to make this the hub town song.

this song sounds like giving up

this feels like one of those sickeningly off-beat happy songs that play while utter chaos breaks out.

This song makes me think I should leave.

i love how everyone has a very different, but very vivid feeling of this song

This really captures the “you lost, just go home” feeling

This gives me those "nobody loves you anymore and you just puked everywhere" vibes

this feels like waking up at 10pm. The days over and you just wasted it.

While out for a walk you stop inside the grocery store. Standing in one of the aisles a worker comes up and asks "can I help you?". You can't break your eyes from the food on the self. It's been two days. You start to speak as your hand brushes your empty wallet. It conjures the bills, overdue notices, rent, in the back of your mind. "I'm just looking." You turn away and start walking home

Happy 10th anniversary, Space Funeral!

This reminds me of a couple of years in my life when my mom just gave up on my homeschooling, and I just ended up sitting in my room, watching the same old VHS collection of the first three seasons of The Simpsons on repeat for a few years. Kind of just laying down right after dinner, only to wake up far past tomorrow's dinner the next night, hungry and tired.. I can't say I like it for that reason. But I do have to commend it for capturing that sort of feeling almost spot on.

If anyone's wondering what band this is it's a band called Les Rallizes Denudes. Japanese underground psychedelic rock band from the 70s. They have an interesting history and some really amazing dreamy songs.

What a great song to set the mood for the rest of the game

There's just so damn much ennui in this song. I live in a beach town with a long boardwalk along the shore. On a foggy day in the off season you can't see to the other end of it. It the musical version of that.

I think Space Funeral could make for an interesting animated film or show. You may be thinking “but the whole point is making a commentary on video games” and to that I say that with a little tweaking to the story elements, you could easily make it a commentary about how a lot of animation studios and creators try to go for stale perfection in their art. In the game, Moon’s corruption of the land was because she couldn’t make anything that matched the perfection of the City. So in an animated movie the City would represent the Disney style of art that’s very good but generally isn’t experimental, and the art style of the corrupted land would be reminiscent of the indie animators that popped up in rejection of those philosophies like Ralph Bakshi, Yellow Submarine, and so on.

I'm thankful for this game introducing me to Les Rallizes Dénudés

Don’t think I’ve ever heard such a perfect audio and visual match as the first few notes of White Waking playing when you’re planted into Scum Vullage

im that one guy clapping at the end

I had a dream last night. All I could see was a desolate wasteland, with some dead trees and bushes, some rocks here and there. All was very fuzzy, but I could still comprehend my surroundings. I saw a figure walking in the distance. I wasn't actually there, I was merely a witness to the scene. Then, this song started to play, resonating into my head. I began crying and woke up, sobbing incontrollably. The song still faintly playing in my head, I felt miserable but at peace. I figured I'd share it.

there was a period of my life last year where this song was stuck in my head for a month. during that time, i went to a house party after the semester ended just for the chance to hang out with a girl i had a thing for. we stood in the backyard waiting for our food and talking among ourselves and our small circle of friends that showed up, watching as a couple of friends kick a comically small soccer ball around. one of them kicked it over a fence and had to jump it to get it back. i remember feeling vaguely melancholy since a few friends had just graduated and i wouldn't be seeing them as much anymore. the sun was setting and the girl i'd come to see was so pretty i could barely look at her. i sat next to her and talked about music and got her number, all while this song played in my head. the combination of excitement at seeing her and discomfort at being out of my comfort zone at a party i think has forever entwined this song and that experience. i dunno why i'm writing this. just another weirdly vivid story and vision to go along with this song i suppose

never thougt that I would find a Les Rallizes Dénudés track in an indie rpg wow

There's something oddly terrifying to this tune. I feel calm, but not at ease.

This is the song that plays as you're sitting on an overpass at night, dangling your over legs over traffic as the wreck of your car burns behind you.

i feel good and sad at same time

This song sounds like buying gas station coffee at 2am

eating a bowl of cereal while sitting on a toilet bowl, in summer..and it's hot outside...u hear the kids laughter ..and ur just there alone and miserable

It makes me imagine a person who's been in isolation so long, the voices in their head are just incoherent murmurs. And the person's just enjoying a cigarette and their loneliness.

Lyrics: White Awakening White awakening puts me to sleep By singing a lullaby for my peace of mind. As my spring came I would nothing except for you. Even after the wind die away My heart is still flickering. Even after the wind die away My heart is still flickering. By the scent of the light accompanied I leave all except for you. White awakening puts me to sleep By singing a lullaby for my peace of mind. 白い目覚め まっ白い目覚めが　わたしを眠らせ 安らぎの歌を聴かせてくれるの わたしの春がはじまったとき あなただけしか欲しくなかった 風の通り過ぎたあとでも わたしの心は揺れるの 風の通り過ぎたあとでも わたしの心は揺れるの 光の香りにつつまれて あなた以外は置き忘れてゆく まっ白い目覚めが　わたしを眠らせ 安らぎの歌を聴かせてくれるの

This song makes me feel at ease with the concept of dying

Shiroi Mezame (White Waking) Masshiroi mezame watashi o nemuru [White waking puts me to sleep] yatsuragi no uta o kikase te fureru [by singing a song of peace for me.] watashi no haru ga hajimatta da toki [As my springtime begins] anata dake shika hoshiku nakatta [I want for nothing but you.] kaze no toorisugi ta ato demo [After the wind has gone] watashi no kokoro wa yureru no [my heart still flutters.] Kaze no toorisugi ta ato demo [After the wind has gone] watashi no kokoro wa yureru no [my heart still flutters.] hikari no kaori ni tsutsumarete [Smelling of light] anata igai wa okiwasure te yuku [I leave everything except for you.] masshiroi mezame ga watashi o nemuru [White waking puts me to sleep] yatsuragi no uta o kikase te fureru [by singing a song of peace for me.] There should be a 'ga' in the first line ('mezame ga watashi', as in the refrain at the end), but I can't hear it. Beautiful and sad in either language, I think.

I'm from Eastern Europe. This song perfectly captures the feeling of waking up on a grey autumn morning and seeing crappy soviet buildings out of the window not knowing what to do with your life. great stuff

This feels like waking up around 6 pm, dizzy and disoriented when everybody already had their daily routine and are about to go to bed but you overslept and can't go to bed again and you stay alone for the night on your own.

*Vullage

this is a good song to die to

Let it be known I heard this song on the radio of all places earlier tonight. Surreal experience, man.

This song defines my exsistance. You feel calm, but never at ease. Calm, but with a mixture of fear and sadness wallowing inbetween. I dont know if this goes for other people, but it did for me. (Sorry for any misspellings, english wasnt my first language.)

I still remember eating a Really Greasy Burger on a Very Hot Day when I started this game. The atmosphere for the town made me feel super queasy. 10/10

I loved Space Funeral. It had its own unique style. Oh and yeah, eat your greens.

If it werent for me having a really shit PC that can't play the latest "triple A" games I wouldnt have found the gem of a game Space Funeral is man i love the game

I had just started the game when it decided to hit me with this gut punch. I was stunlocked for a good 3 minutes in the scum village, just listening to this song.

This song feels like bleeding out

I played this game a few days ago, and honestly, as soon as I started playing, I almost teared up, the graphics combined with this song are just an overwhelming sensation

This song reminds me of a night I spent drinking with friends a few months ago. It was fantastic. Most of us hadn't seen each other since before Covid, but we all got into the familiar motions of conversation together very easily. It was the first cold night of the season and most of us weren't prepared, but we toughed it out. There were many conversations about what we all had been up to since college. Although it was great at the time, the memory is painted with sadness because most of us don't live in the same state anymore and I don't know when we'll see each other again. I'm glad I had that night with them.

Someday I'll watch a sunset to this.

thank you space funeral dev, i would've never found out about les rallizes denudes if it wasn't for you

I just love the fact that people are finding Les Rallizes Dénudés though this. One of my favorite bands!

the wandering fugitive walks exhaustedly to no place in particular, the weight of his chains no longer a bother to him. pointedly, he takes a cigarrette box from his shirt pocket. it's crumpled and fraying at it's well worn edges. he notices his scabbed wrists, his shackles having cut into him. he smiles, then flips the lid of his only friend. "the last one...the only one", he says to himself with a bit of relief. with shaking hands he raises his final goodbye to his lips and lights it with care. the smoke fills his lungs and he collapses to the ground and cries bittersweet tears. the wind blows through what trees are left in the wastes of what once was and sweeps him away, never to be seen again

I remember listening to this song during one of my depressive episodes. Probably the closest a song gets to nailing that feeling of being hopelessly miserable.

this song feels like the moment after something really bad is over, and you're just content with being garbage for some time

Rest in Peace.

This song makes me feel like shit but in a good way

Reminds me of the song that plays on Hotline Miami: The Original at the start screen.

This song smells like jasmines. This song has vibes like "You are grown up now. You should realize things!".

The bass player of this song hijacked a plane that's deep man

This would've fit into Hylics perfectly

This song makes me feel sad but in a way where I’m happy it does.

i'm hopelessly entranced by all the feelings this song holds. it feels like drifting off into a whole other world. the place is new and beautiful and full of wonder, but it's oh-so-lonely at the same time, and you can't help but miss home. it all combines to make this particular bittersweet feeling that just... hits i don't think i'll ever stop loving this song until the end of time

it makes me feel like im in Mexico sometime in the 1920s, walking through a small city as the sun goes down. i wander into a restaurant. it is decorated with beautiful handpainted ceramic tiles, each perfectly intricate and perfectly unique. i order a basket of tortilla chips. suddenly i realize it is not the 1920s, but i am in Mexico. i don't know how i got here. i check my pocket. i only have american currency, and not very much. i leave before they bring me my tortilla chips.

This song feels like getting lost at some bluegrass concert; you're surrounded by people but feel alone, your not scarred, but a bit worried as you should probably be getting home soon. The sun starts to set and the air becomes colder. In the distance you hear music, but it's not anyone you've heard of. You wander through crowds and crowds of people aimlessly.

You don't know where you're going, but you're still going and that's all that matters. You'll get somewhere eventually, just keep going

it's 3:47am in Los Angeles. Your friends ditched you an hour ago in a shitty night club, and upon realizing they're not coming back, you leave. There's no cabs to be had, so you walk. You walk and walk until you find yourself on an overpass. You climb up onto the lip and take a seat, pulling a cigarette out of you pocket and lighting it. You contemplate how bad a fall to the asphalt would really be.

Just do your best.

This really makes you FEEL like the 2020 quarantine

A summer sunset over a an empty unlit road is what comes to mind with this song.

feels-bad-man.mp3

this is the greatest rpg maker game i have ever played

for me this song makes me think of my childhood. of what could've been, but never happened. I miss my innocence, I wish I could go back to those summer nights, go back to visiting my mummy in the many apartments that she moved to, go back to rolling around in the damp grass at my old house, trying to catch the grass moths as my gran watched from the patio. Oh, to be a kid without a care in the world.

I remember hearing this around the start of high school. Now I'm a senior halfway through my last year, and it makes me feel weirdly sad, even if I like this song. So many small eras and things have happened throughout these few years. I feel like this song best encapsulates the haze of being a teenager in these times, and trying to make it through and have the best and "most regular" experiences before entering the adult world.

This is the song I want to be singing as I slowly die and descend into the void.

i find this song immensely comforting tbh gives me feelings of being a kid, on vacation somewhere, at the end of the day when you're tired but happy and everything just has that hazy glow of contentment, with the comfortable unfamiliarity of staying somewhere different idk if that made sense but this song gives me a lot of emotions. i love seeing everyone's different takes on it

I thought i had gotten over my depression, then i came across this song. Time to listen on repeat, again, and again, and again..... and again..........

This song is a torch

this is by far my favourite song from the game

This just reminds me of all the shit I’ve been through in my life, from the forced medication to being treated like a freak by everyone, down to my fucked up imagination acting as a mental scab over the years of abuse I’ve experienced. Feels bad, man, but for some reason I always have hope it’ll get better, that at some point I can just leave home and get a job and my own place. Maybe, some day far off from now, I’ll be living a quiet life and forget all of this bullshit and worry about simpler things, but for now... I’m just in this pit, and this pit has become my home, for the time being. Come visit the pit every once in awhile, we have cookies and shower water.

This song makes me feel like I'm standing on a beach, watching a red sunset as the waves lazily wash over the dirty sand

Nothing is real and other people are demons who are only here to watch me suffer

this video has existed for nearly 10 years and to my knowledge never once has the title been corrected to "Space Funeral - White Waking (Scum Vullage)" it'd be even more bizarre if it had already been that at some point and somehow it changed

This song is so fucking depressing holy fuckkkkk

this feels like the town i live in. it's very desolate, and nearly everything is abandoned. broken down buildings line the roads.

The first time i heard this song i felt a lot of nostalgia, it kinda kicks in when the first thing you see looks like a funeral

If I had to sum up the vibe of this song, it's like mindlessly wasting all day doing jack squat and then the stab of realization late at night that there was absolutely several important things you had to do that day to make sure the rest of the month isn't a disaster.

what do you do dracula

The reason I discovered les rallizes

This song always makes me feel sad. Not in a very sentimental way though, just a little remorseful but still a little empty too. I dunno, maybe I'm weird. Maybe we're all a little weird.

Late to this but This song gives me the vibes of a lonely person, watching life just spiral out of control. But, they're unnaturally fine with it.

this is track 3 (of 3) of disc 1 (of 6) of the questionably-official box set 'Double Heads' Not to be confused with the also-good 'Double Heads September'

years later, space funeral reminds me of pilotredsun

I awake in the basement, everyone was a skeleton. They were sad, I made them happy. Our daily Routine was to dance, they couldn’t move on their own. How they danced, perfectly with my movements. I met my wife there, her hair was as Golden as an egg. One day I brushed her hair to this song, her head fell off. Her head fell off Her head fell off I put it back on and resumed brushing. I sleep in the basement, for the next waking.

I realised how this game can relate to reality.

This song makes me feel dorceless

After 10 years. I always come back to it. Why did you have to fill me with CANCER? Was it you MOON? Or someone I loved, before the ERROR?

the most happiest sad song, every time i hear this i feel somthing on my chest, like i were alone for the rest of my life

While I was listening to this song for the first time, the only thought in my head was "Why do I love this mess?"

This song reminds me of being taken to parties with my mom and dad, and It would usually be at night, so Id have to sleep in the car, instead of in the house with the party, and this song reminds me of being in the car, and hearing the music be muffled, as it looks very dark outside. almost impossible to see

This reminds me of a song I used to hear on the radio when I was much younger, when I still lived in Miami... But I can't remember it for the life of me.

I honestly didn't know how I felt while playing this this music, I don't think it's good, I don't think it's bad. It's strange- this game makes me feel nothing.

i shall be the 500th comment, Space funeral is an amazing grotesque game i think you should all play. NOW
