    I play in a loud ass rock band and sometimes when we finish a show we listen to this stuff on the drive home to chill out. Little moments that make life nice sometimes.

      I played bass/drums in a band once and we did something similar, time to time. The quiet, contemplative moments in life are important, a part of what makes life life, I guess.

      Yes! I was like...wait, that's a seagull! Took me a while thinking it was some hip-hop off-the-wall made up sound effect.

    @cordan305 Před rokem +13

    One of the best bonus tracks I’ve ever heard. Normally they’re either just ok or even bad but this is actually one of my favorites from all of _Music Has the Right to Children_ I think.

  • @tjk355
    @tjk355 Před 2 lety +18

    As the 90s nears its end with this album, there's a feeling of melancholy for the past beside impending dread for the coming absurdity of our present that borders on comical. Thats my interpretation anyway.

  • @theaphextriplet
    @theaphextriplet Před 2 lety +9

    this is probably one of the best outro tracks i've heard on an album. it's quite eerie yet simultaneously smooth and comforting

  • @andersons.2538

    I read something on a website a few years ago that identified the spoken words in this video as 'popsic' as in - someone saying popsicle but the end cut off. There's a high probability I am reading too much into this, but after thinking about it some more, I wonder if Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin are using the sample to mean 'pop sick' - i.e. getting sick of pop music. Just a thought and feel free to tell me I'm crazy!
