I was listening to this song driving home from an AC show. I was on the Key Bridge over the Harbor and it was midnight, looking at the entire view of Baltimore City illuminated in beautiful lighting. I thought I was dreaming, and I had entered into another world. I will always remember that night.
@seagaia I hear something going on at 1:18 that makes the song holy fuck but how do you know it's a minor third, mate ? Could you please explain us ? Thanks.
@MrShuggieTodd At some point when this song came out I played along with it on a keyboard. It must have been one of the intervals he uses in the scale he sings (I don't remember the name of the type of scales, but it involves changing a few of the notes to give it that "exotic" tone) at that point.
@seagaia I see, thanks for the explanation, the way Lennox sings is really unique and impressive. I think his voice and singing is better than Carl and Brian Wilson's (who he is often compared to).
@MrShuggieTodd playing a minor third over a major chord...or even a major third over a minor chord...when used sparingly...is a great way to inject some mystical sounding vibes into a song. :)

Ends like Animal Collective's "turn into something", I mean, just perfectly

the "ooooh"s at the end of this song - pretty sure they're the same as the end of AC's 'turn into something'

@PatrickCederberg duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude! i was thinking the same thing
for me, the ending of turn into something is truly something that moves me (no lie, for realz) and just eases me and sends me into bliss...
i heard the vocalizing too, only he added a couple of notes at the end... but yea fucking great!

this is what you hear when you've drowned and your life-less eyes look up to the water's surface as your body slowly drifts into the abyss.

@iwazused Great description, very poetic and totally adapted to the feeling given by the song. Subbed to your channel for such a quote.
