    Its so strange to hear people talk about outsider music, because the way they describe it sometimes makes you think it'd be bad. This is anything but that!!! The artifacts in the music from the age of it, her voice, the instrumental, it's beautiful. I love it so much.

Alternatively, there is his main channel which is like a compilation of funny moments from them. This comes up in his geoguessr video on his main channel.

    I feel like this song has something really touching and pure to it, combined with the surrealistic video it's a really weird experience.
    While the text seems to be quite positive, the melancholic melody and Snowden's idiosyncratic voice make the song sound tragic and beautiful.
    But maybe it's just the drugs.
