I saw him do this live from memory to about 50 people in Edinburgh about 5 years ago - it was genuinely amazing. Now this has 287,000 views - for some reason i find that very uplifting.

I think the reason this song hits me the most is because it's so familiar. It's an uncomfortably accurate image of life sometimes. It's too true of a song.
"'Hey, 'ma, guess what today, I did another magazine interview!'
'Honey, that's great, you're really famous!!' Yeah and I'm 27 too!
I kinda thought I was gonna grow up to do stuff that would benefit humanity
But it's getting harder to tell if this artist's life is even benefitting me..."
God. I love this.

@flikda3flip Sorta ruins what so many people love about it though. I feel that the "overloading of words" gives this song the right atmosphere, how each verse starts with pretty much the same line and then jeffrey's stream of consciousness style make this song feel quite dream-like, the tangents that he goes off on. Ramblings about life, just because he though he saw will oldham on the L train in the morning. . It makes this a true masterpiece.
