The song stardust was originally made by my great-great-grandfather Hoagy Carmichael in 1927 and later he added lyrics in 1929. This being found has finally put my grandfather in a sound that I really wanted to hear him in, a nostalgic and beautiful sound. Thank u for ur work and keep it up.
I picture an empty metropolis, not a single soul, left exactly as it was in the 1940s, without a single piece of dust or a crack in the concrete, the Ford coupes sitting in the street untouched. Towering Art Deco skyscrapers loom over, as this song emanates from an unknown place, like a speaker in the heavens. It's a haunting but beautiful scene. This also reminds me of the sleepovers I had when I was a kid at my grandma's house. She watched country shows at night, and would often fall asleep to them. I woke up around midnight and heard a voice echoing throughout the home. I walked into the family room, the only light being the TV. In the light I could see my grandparents fast asleep on their chairs. The TV played a mournful song sung by a long-dead country star, on a 70s stage to an empty audience. The speakers seemed to have lost their clarity and the song dragged on in long reverberations. The only other thing I could see was the moon and stars through their ginormous picture window, beaming down onto this sleepy place. I returned to my bed down the hall, after making sure to turn off the TV. Now the song played in my mind, and was my lullaby that deep night.
This song feels like the calm you feel just before you die.. Just seconds ago you were panicked and upset but all that is gone now. You realise life will carry on without you and that comforts you
I had a dream where i was shot twice in the neck and at first i was nervous and couldn't breathe right but then everything turned black and white and i felt relaxed knowing that all my worries were over, my explanation makes it sound simple but it really was a beautiful thing.
Sometimes I wonder why I spend A lonely night dreaming of a song The melody haunts my reverie And I am once again with you When our love was new And each kiss an inspiration But that was long ago Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song Beside a garden wall When stars are bright You are in my arms The nightingale tells his fairy tale Of paradise where roses grew Though I dream in vain In my heart it will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain
I’ve been looking for the perfect music as well. I have gathered an extensive amount of song and genres. But this...the Caretaker’s music resonates on a different level with the artist within me.
I always used to listen to this song with my grandparents. My grandpa is starting to lose his memory and hearing, started having a tremor in his hand, and is having trouble walking. Listening to this hits me super hard. Thank you, Mr. Kirby, for the magic you create.
These songs are the truly "slowed + reverb". It sounds much more natural, magical, and gives the true sensation of a long time ago. Leyland Kirby never disappoints.
"Stardust" And now the purple dusk of twilight time Steals across the meadows of my heart High up in the sky the little stars climb Always reminding me that we're apart You wander down the lane and far away Leaving me a song that will not die Love is now the stardust of yesterday The music of the years gone by Sometimes I wonder why I spend The lonely night dreaming of a song The melody haunts my reverie And I am once again with you When our love was new And each kiss an inspiration But that was long ago Now my consolation Is in the stardust of a song Beside a garden wall When stars are bright You are in my arms The nightingale tells his fairy tale A paradise where roses bloom Though I dream in vain In my heart it will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain Ghost dancing.......
God, this song really crushed me down, specially when the voice starts to sing, its just too much for me, too sad and beautiful, much love to the caretaker
look at this elegant picture! the clouds block the sun creating a gloomy shade of blue over the snow. it just barely is nightfall which adds to the aesthetic. the filter on this is also wonderful
The first (shellac, 78rpm) record my grandpa gave me was the Tommy Dorsey and Frank Sinatra version of Stardust. I listened to it bright-eyed and eagle-eared, through the surface noise and hum of the old tube amp in the 'classroom' record player, enjoying every second of it. A genuine connection between his generation and mine. We both loved making things, antiques, records, music... all kinds of things like that; passions he helped instill in my heart. He passed recently. The last few times I saw him he couldn't even form a coherent sentence. He could barely hold a glass to take a drink. The last words he said to me, specifically, were "I missed my ride." We had been working on his (now my) 1964 Ford with the main goal of taking him for one last ride, and indeed we weren't able to finish the project in time. He was saying it as a joke, with a smile, but... it still cuts me to think of it. I'm grateful I was at least able to get the car running for him though, so there's that consolation. Anyway... Hearing this take of this song, so distant sounding, coupled with the memories and thoughts and experiences I've had recently... just hits me in a way that no other song has yet.
It’s crazy how EATEOT is just pure existential dread and horror, and the rest of the Caretaker’s stuff is “no thoughts, head empty” tier stuff. I love it.
Use to work at tempest records in Birmingham and I collected any VVM release, splattered red vinyl, pink piggy sounds, greay vinyl factory samples, so great to hear this insanely touching new work!!!
i feel like im dancin thru my head with people throughout my life…reliving memories-I’ve always loved the vintage style and i live for it…this song feels like peace…the calm in a show theatre after the people have gone…i feel old and new at the same time beginning and ending in the same scope of time-this feels like a reprise to life-perfect for chilly days and world building
@@gello8518 what exactly do you mean by inspired. The song already existed and none of the preexisting songs for that movie were edited, that I remember.
It is so wonderful to listen to the gradual progression that leads to his magnum opus of "Everywhere At The End Of Time", although I am VERY fond of "Stairway to the Stars".
This picture EXACTLY describes this song wth. I can picture myself walking in snow while listening to this song. It's kind of like that feeling when winter comes and it starts getting colder. It's closer to Christmas and you're thinking about the new year.
the last contact of our lips still haunts me, slipping into my conscious, this solace past that beautiful day in may, it is comforting, but the coffin seems more comfortable
This song, it feels, sleepy, like a song you'd listen to while in the process of waking up where only half of your mind is awake, functional, and aware of the music
@@fridolin64 I've been searching for music that would be in a mood of overlook hotel ball and accidentilly found this treasure while surfing through doom jazz! "Camaraderie at arms length" - is in overlook style too!
"not too much artistry here" Due to the inability to reply to old comments on the new youtube, I shall put it out there that the artistry is strong here, but it is conceptual. It's not Dada music, but think the Duchamp Fountain sort of thing, for a rather vulgar comparison.
This song makes me view my dead family members having fun togheter in heaven and it makes me cry out out of pure love and emotion to them. May my expectations be real. And some day i could join them too. Amen.

And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
Beside a garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
Of paradise where roses grew
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
🙏
:D
This song is sad.
:)
Beautiful.
This feels exactly like just a burning memory, but without the weight and anxiety of the rest of everywhere at the end of time leaning over you.
true
It feels like IJABM with less of the feeling of EATEOT Stage 1 and less of EATEOT overall.

It’s just a burning memory gives off a different feeling then this to me.

High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we're apart
You wander down the lane and far away

The music of the years gone by

Lyrics in a The Caretaker song... feels nice
From this time forward, i am convinced, that caretaker came from other plast of reality to show us his way, goods and stunnings.
..he was just ..*There..
( ..at Dark Lounge, Twin Peaks Entrance..) still is there..
Letting go of nostalgia, The Caretaker sits back and lets the record sing to them. The horns, saxes, bass, all of it soaks into their very conscious.
It’s crazy how EATEOT is just pure existential dread and horror, and the rest of the Caretaker’s stuff is “no thoughts, head empty” tier stuff. I love it.
the image gives me a feeling of old times and nostalgia
Use to work at tempest records in Birmingham and I collected any VVM release, splattered red vinyl, pink piggy sounds, greay vinyl factory samples, so great to hear this insanely touching new work!!!

Uses Stardust by Majorie Stedeford, all of it, slowed down by -5%, was heard again in the unsound live performance.
Panning direction: 32% Left
I swear it is something more than slowed it by 5%.
