    My dad gave me a huge playlist of songs in 6th grade for my mp3 player. After losing my mp3 player I thought I'd never find them again but today I found this one and that's crazy!

      2 yrs late but music like this has its way of finding its way back into your life, generally at the most seemingly random unexpected times, but a time none the less, where that music seems to make everything make sense, even if only temporarily.

      Like. A shower with themselves
      And the song you can’t hide your love

      And the song come to daddy .... i imagine myself beating the shit out of a tv man

    I love how this song starts out as sort of a dance track, like when you hear the intro, you think “wow, this song is gonna be dope!” And as the song continues, it gets more emotional. When the drums disappear and you’re left with the synths and pads, you’re most likely to get emotional. I get emotional every time because of how beautiful this song is.

    This just popped into my recommendations after like God knows how long and I'm more than thankful it did. This track just sounds so melancholy, like a far away inhabited galaxy crying out for someone, anyone, to come into contact with for centuries only to be met with the cold silence of space, slowly snuffed out by their kind's own hubris. That is when the messages finally reach us as we too are shouting into the cosmos, a glimmer of hope as we listen for an answer that was yet to come. Alas, it was too late, for it took traveling hundreds of thousands of lightyears to reach us, as we are the last beings to hear the cries of a long forgotten civilization.

    that "Butterfly" Mariah Carey album is not for public consumption. it seems to be for the living room concert. The sound is so crisp it might make a passerby cry. even the instrumental tracks

    Anyone know the words he's speaking into the vocoder or whatever he used to tweak it? To me it sounds like "You won't cry, you will be alright."

      a lot of people think different things
      Genius lyrics says it's "My boyfriend was crying, in New York" (which I think is it)
      I've heard some people say "My friends aren't supposed to cry/die"

      I can hear both of those. But of course, it's best to just enjoy the song and let it sound like whatever you want it to sound like. Thank you for the reply.@@Cessated
