i just want to express enormous appreciation i feel while listening to this album.one of the best albums ever made.
starting with "the birds" which is like a flashback, sudden shock, but brings back
old memories i didn't know still exist in my mind.
then there's "your mouth", a track which made me think about my childhood
and all the stuff i loved when i was younger.
"M" is dedicated to one very special person in my life, dotdotdot
"helen of troy" hmm pretty dancy but sad, which is not surprising, i'm all into sadness.
then there's "mostly translucent". i cried.
"stay away from being maybe" is the only track that actually made me dance
which is funny, because the song is about hesitating over strong emotions towards
a person you've known for all your life. but it's cool. it's awesome actually.
brings good and bad feelings at the same time.
"i made a tree on the world" is like someone is telling me a story, a story that i
already know, but fancy to hear anytime again. i love its slow&silent start.
when i heard "your every idol" for the first time, i couldn't help thinking of one
person i really admire. i never had idols or heros in my life [ok heros are different but idols never], and i always thought that people who have the tendency to be like someone are dull and have a lack of self-confidence. anyhow, this song reminded me
of a woman whose personality i totally respect, so i love the song.
the last tune on the album [i deliberately skipped one track] "immolate yourself" speaks for itself. i'm not surprised that the whole album carries that title.
and then, "you are the worst thing in the world".
i left this one for the very end because the lyrics are unbearably emotional.
i know that you're an ocean after the storm has come
to stay
i know that you're the silence after the sun has gone
away
i know that just the smallest part of the world belongs
to me
you know i'm not a blind man
but the truth is the hardest thing
to see
i know that you're the worst thing
in all of the world
for me
*one artist, one album, so many feelings.
telefon tel aviv,
i love you.
