@swiminthissilense

Funny, I got turned on to Kimya because I wanted to see aesop. If you haven't, you should delve into aesop's catalogue. There is some true lyrical genius. The two are now my two favorite current lyricists.

[c0dead]

now, i know aesop was talking about camu tau, but who exactly was kimya talking about? someone in music or just a personal friend?

[Skizzott23]

@c0dead Ammi, previous manager of Sidewalk Cafe in NY (friend and in music), Alex, just a friend. Both of which I don't think are well known. First time I heard this, I was half listening to Aesop and heard Minneapolis and thought it was about Eyedea, but then realized it was about Camu.

[dudeman650]

@Skizzott23 I think its about both with the MN reference but probably Camu with the "King of Hearts to carrying jackals" line

[BobaWeave88]

Came here for Aesop, left looking for Kimyas website to buy some music.

[JetOneStepTwoStep]

probably one of the best tunes i've heard since a tom waits album. will definitely be sticking to this.

nonstop goosebumage



[TheAndrewhulse]

Is it okay that I'm in love with Kimya?

[TheSayianOverlord]

@TheAndrewhulse You should be considered strange if you're not in love with Kimya.

[miniraptorX]

@TheAndrewhulse Yes it is, yes it is

[dstrbdxxxprncess]

dude I loved the meaningful lyrics the girl was saying, but the dude, when he started singing I was like blooowwnnn

[RustyXXKnife1]

@dstrbdxxxprncess Aesop does that to people.

[popetessaxv]

This show was so badass! Aesop and Kimya killed, fabulous venue, fabulous San Francisco vibe. She's so awesome.

[breezibee09]

notice you can't truly cover kimya dawson songs?

probably because they're not as vague and meaningless as most other songs in this world :)
