the first time i heard this song i was trippin balls and i lay on a hill for around half an hour staring at a twig. the music was the wind and i could taste, eat and see it
Sun is shining, not a cloud to be seen on the sky, and I'm about to lie down on a blanket outside with the girl of my dreams, and pass the rest of this wonderful thursday afternoon doing absolutely nothing, but enjoying the closeness and nuzzling up to each other.
One way to get high on life is with drugs, and one way is without. I used to be addicted to getting high on life with the aid of drugs....but one day my brother explained to me that the drug wasn't necessary. I have been clean and getting high on life with my own drug....that drug is me. I have been doing that for the last 5 years...and every year my life gets better and better. Its easy to explain why....with the drugs you know its the drugs.....with you ...you know its just you..
Thursday afternoon, the troublesome week is almost over and Friday seems quite endurable. It's not the same as Friday afternoon which creates it's own hustle and tension while trying to clear everything up before the weekend or in anxiously counting down the last few moments of the week . No, Thursday afternoon has a serenity all of it's own.
If a compound DOES, or CAN exist - Then it's only natural that it SHOULD exist.
Clearly, people who've suffered an addiction to something which has affected them adversely will take a stance against drugs. And people who enjoy their experiences will take a stand in favor of drugs.
Anyone here take drugs? Fine. That's good(ish!). I can ony hope they don't end up hurting you (As they sometimes do!)
this reminds me of the first time i did mushrooms. i was watching my friends fish tank, and it looked like there was a hole in the middle of the little rocks on the bottom of the tank. it looked as if the rocks kept being sucked into this hole, but there was never any less rocks in tanks. just what seemed like an endless supply of rocks flowing like a waterfall into nothingness.
Honestly, before I found Brian Eno music, i would have terrible time going to sleep each night because I'd imagine all sorts of terrible things but then I was recommended An Ending (the 1st Eno song i ever heard). I went to sleep with no troubles and no nightmares...and now months later, I'm no longer afraid to go to sleep. I can listen to his music all day every day ^^
I bought the CD when it came it out in mid 80's. Went home, put it on the speakers and layed on the couch. The CD player was on repeat mode. When I woke at 2am, I heard a whining sound and thought, "damn my refrigerator is broken. But it sounds so .. beautiful" I think this is the best of his composition/performances. I wish I could have seen his installation in Milan playing the tracks used to mix the CD.
If anyone would like to purchase and experience the beauty of the hour long piece 'Thursday Afternoon' you can in the link below. I suggest you do, it's a masterpiece.
w w w . amazon. com / Thursday- Afternoon- Brian - Eno/ dp /B000003S1T
Si elegiste a Eno es que quieres estar en armonía ante tanta locura, lo grandioso es saber cuando parar y pensar que nada vale la pena cuando se trata de buscar los significados de la vida. Soñar, sonreir, no temer...eso es lo que se debería perseguir. Un placer para el alma. gracias amigo
It's a shame the whole 1 hour song isn't on here it's truly breathtaking. This 5 minute video doesn't do it justice. I remember the first day I heard this song I was going through very conflicted feelings on where my life was going and in the background pandora was playing this song. It was seriously the soundtrack of my life at that very moment. I wasn't angry, I wasn't sad, I was calm. And that's what Brian Eno's music does for me.
@Nobodie92 Just think yourself lucky you can get Pandora. Apparently on this side of the pond we can fight alongside you guys, die alongside you in Iraq and Afghanistan, but we can't share your music!
@Nobodie92 I really liked your comment, I too stumbled upon this album on Pandora during a similar time in my life. To this day it remains one of my favorite Eno works.
@rizkunisnator Why yes, I am a fan, as I assume you are from knowing what song the lyric comes from. If you are, good for you, if not, oh well, to each his own. Good music is good music, I only suggest that inner peace can be acceived without chemical enhancement. I also believe we need to unplug from the electronic umbilical cords every so often and let it go: YouTube, Facebook, cellphone, all of it.
This music is so peaceful. If only we could find and hold that peace in our daily lives.
We are beings of experience. All of us have a mind, an intellect and a personality. We're only different in the skin. We look out through our eyes at the world. Peace can only come inside the self.
Take away all the worries and problems we generate through thoughts, find time to chill out, create positive thought, attitude and feeling, and then...
@monteoner Hopefully at some point you will evolve enough personally not to need drugs to achieve a high. A natural high is a thousand times better and more meaningful. I say this having been like you for years. Cheers.
thursday afternoon is one of Eno's best works undoubtedly, it's haunting & profound, & no, one doesn't need the stupidity of drugs to appreciate it, it is simply awesome to listen to.
@Blood420Wizard You should snort the oxy. I've smoked it before and it does get you higher for 20-30 minutes but the high goes away much too quickly. When you snort the drug, much more of it gets in your system as well, so your not wasting as much. OC's are too expensive to smoke.(in my opinion) I'm not trying to be a snob, I'm trying to help u out. All the smart opiate users in my city pop them, snort them, and the hardcore users shoot it. Smoking is a waste.
Nice video and music. I think Eno himself would appreciate this since Thursday Afternoon was initially composed as a ambient background piece to accompany what he called 7 video paintings. Very well done.
@CM1590 LoL what a dumbass I am on narcs-opiates(hydrocodone-morphine) and benzos(valium) right now, and let me tell you= Brian Eno and any psychedelic or opiate/downer works but next time I listen to this song I'm going to listen to it tripping on natural psychedelics(although LSD would be cool) and cannabis. Natural drugs (marijuana,mescalin,mushrooms) seem a better fit for this music than the synthetics i'm on right now...
@CM1590 There is no such thing as 'psychedelics' ;Maybe psychedelia ,or psychedelic drugs.I think what this poster meant,is that this kind of music has almost the same effect as narcotics,(without the hazzardous addiction problems,mind).Although,sayin' that ,I'm seriously hooked to Brian Eno's sounds,and probably would get withdrawal symptoms if I lost his music.
what do i see in the swell? i see jack-o-lanterns. i see an elephant. and i am very sad to see that its already 5 minutes through with 22 seconds left.
I prefer the to be blown-away by the grandness of reality. I don't need any medicinal help to immerse myself in this music; it is beautiful and enchanting, and perhaps spiritual all by itself. It is an experience to be shared by me and Eno without anything artificial getting in the way.
@EooWooY i congratulate you, but in no way could you get an experience as profound as a psychedelic purely from conventional means, although i agree drugs are not necessary to immerse yourself in the music.
forget the planet, let's save the souls on it. china, india, and brazil are going to be the new superpolluters anyway...nothing we can do to stop them
Fucking amen to that degree7. I've taken drugs, well, weed anyway, and yeah it was fun for a while, but for me it wasn't some gateway to spiritual enlightenment like it seems to be for some people, and in fact in just numbed me after a while... :S
h2ophilter, your sentence reminds me of people who think it is enough to enter the church and get spiritualized, it is not that simple, unfortunately.
vokshumana, point well taken. but hallucinogenic experiences have been likened to spiritual experiences, and Im citing studies from institutions such as Harvard & John Hopkins. As for your comment, it cheapens my message by insinuating that drugs are a vacuous way to enlightenment. FYI the Mayans, Aztecs & other cultures used psychedelic mushrooms as a sacrament in their religious ceremonies. Going to church pales in comparison to a trip. I dare you to try it before you make blind judgments.
Im sorry but I would have to disagree. Take 3.5 grams of mushrooms and listen to a song like this and it will show you things a sober mind could never fathom. But sober this song is still amazing.
@degree7 if you havent listened to pink floyd on lsd than there's no explaining the difference between that and anything else, and saying any more would be pointless
@degree7 you don't need to be high on life, just connected with the depth and effecting nature of the human experience, both good and bad, for me ambient music pervades all the emotions i experience and all the moods i find myself in, for me it is not mood specific.
@degree7 listened to the full thing on acid, it was amazing, it was so calm (i have the CD the full 61minutes of it) and i just stared up and the clouds and watched them morph in front of my eyes, it was the most amazing thing i think i have ever done, pondered existence and many other things. but i thoroughly enjoy this song when i am sober, but i dont think your mind can process those thoughts like you do on LSD
but i like life the way it is, acid just makes it interesting, and intriguing :)
Always a great oasis in the midst of so much desperation

Trust me, drugs dampen the experience.
You have to be high on LIFE to generate an ear for this. Unless you already have one.

Fucking amen to that degree7. I've taken drugs, well, weed anyway, and yeah it was fun for a while, but for me it wasn't some gateway to spiritual enlightenment like it seems to be for some people, and in fact in just numbed me after a while... :S

weed = munchies and giggles. mushrooms = spiritual enlightenment.

h2ophilter, your sentence reminds me of people who think it is enough to enter the church and get spiritualized, it is not that simple, unfortunately.

vokshumana, point well taken. but hallucinogenic experiences have been likened to spiritual experiences, and Im citing studies from institutions such as Harvard & John Hopkins. As for your comment, it cheapens my message by insinuating that drugs are a vacuous way to enlightenment. FYI the Mayans, Aztecs & other cultures used psychedelic mushrooms as a sacrament in their religious ceremonies. Going to church pales in comparison to a trip. I dare you to try it before you make blind judgments.

h2ophilter, I appreciate your comment, but I had spiritual experience when I was 18 old, in the army, without drugs. Maybe youth is best drug.

Im sorry but I would have to disagree. Take 3.5 grams of mushrooms and listen to a song like this and it will show you things a sober mind could never fathom. But sober this song is still amazing.

Well, I've never taken shrooms, so I couldn't comment on that.

@degree7 if you havent listened to pink floyd on lsd than there's no explaining the difference between that and anything else, and saying any more would be pointless

@degree7 you don't need to be high on life, just connected with the depth and effecting nature of the human experience, both good and bad, for me ambient music pervades all the emotions i experience and all the moods i find myself in, for me it is not mood specific.

@degree7 Trust you? Because you know so much more about life than everybody who does drugs? Fall off your high horse chump.

@degree7 listened to the full thing on acid, it was amazing, it was so calm (i have the CD the full 61minutes of it) and i just stared up and the clouds and watched them morph in front of my eyes, it was the most amazing thing i think i have ever done, pondered existence and many other things. but i thoroughly enjoy this song when i am sober, but i dont think your mind can process those thoughts like you do on LSD
but i like life the way it is, acid just makes it interesting, and intriguing :)
