Love listening to this n thinking about the times i was young n just having fun..being a kid..the voices still r here..watch?v=HVaJcy0naGQ listen to this while listening to this song n it will bring you peace :)
This song reminds me of better times. Whenever its played, a multitude of emotions cascade me. Its one of the few rare songs that leaves me with tears of melancholic happiness.
@godverdegodverdomme I don't think you understood the video itself. The viewer IS the bee (or at least, it's very plausible considering the perspective and camera movement).
"James described the album as being "like standing in a power station on acid" and went on to note that the sounds on record were inspired by lucid dreams, and that upon awaking, he would attempt to re-create the sounds and record them. He claimed to have natural synaesthesia, which contributed to this album." - Wikipedia
that's the 1 massive problem with wasps they will sting you for nothing. unlike a bee, that will only sting in defence, you watch a bee and a wasp and you'd see what I mean..
imo wasps are a pain in thee ass , I hate the things..
@XxMoshPittersxX i've once read this article in which richard tells he creates his own synths. well, he just buys existing synths and mods them with new transistors, resistors etc. so you can't actually replicate his sound (would be possible tho, but don't ask me how :P)
Best thing to fall asleep to ever, you just drift of into your own little dreamworld. Rich is a god of unique and brainteasing melodies - i hope to be as good as him one day :/
This song makes me cry so hard that I start wheezing. . It represents all cats and kittens that I have taken in and fostered or kept. GOD BLESS THEIR SOULS...
Everytime I hear this I imagine myself in a beautiful forest on a summers evening, watching the red skies as the sun goes down, by a warming campfire, whilst meditating.
My best friend of 8 years and I just had a huge blowout and I don't think we're friends anymore. This song is what's keeping me together right now so I don't crumble and fall apart.
This song reminds me how bizarre life really is. It's just a piece of music, just some random tones, but in our human minds, at least for a lot of people including me, it's hauntingly beautiful.
I never really appreciated the ambient works, but this one..it hearkens nostalgia for whatever one used to love and then lost. I hesitate to say it invents sentiment because perhaps it fosters and helps to find it. Either way, it makes me doubt that l can really live without love. When it feels like this, it seems worth all the heartache.
When I play this song, I gaze out the window thinking about the good ol' days from infant years to high school. A time when the economy wasn't so screwed up and the world was a perfect place to live. Nowadays, I just put this song on and gaze out the window and sigh while I listen to the morning birds chirp. On the other hand, this song sounds like something you hear in one of those dramatic movies. Both this song and [lichen] are my most favorites from Selected Ambient Works Volume II.
@willspock im very dissapointed at your ability to enjoy the song together with this perfectly matching video, the gentle sway and out of focus view are so so perfect
Like authors and painters, musicans shape their own world starting with a blank sheat. When i listen to Richards work; he's green fields and highlands are revealed to me, also he's terroized city's and gates of hell. My head feels lighter, but somehow it drops onto my shoulders, my mind fades backwards in to a passive state of mind and i can see he's world. This is a reflection of the real life, he's life. I belive thats why he's music label is called Rephlex
In the blink of an eye, the entire planet is instantly awed by the beauty of itself and is so overwhelmed , it brings everything to it's knees.
Everyone is showing their most positive outlook and every living organism is touched by the relentless beauty that is so present. Every war is postponed, every fight, every sob, every nonsense situation is blindsided by the tremendous beauty of life.......
@lordaquaman hmm, someone that had sympathy for salad fingers and looked into the background on the story, yeah.... i think its safe to say that some registry has a "red dot" over where you live
@Disposition446 When you're heavily exposed to drugs its harder to just not try them. And when you're going through depression either genetic or from a horrible tragic event sometimes drugs are the only short term way to find pleasure, which is horrible but the truth. Think about what you're saying for a minute.

or in this case; wheter I understand this video or not.
