    So I've been listening to this song for a decade and here are my thoughts.

  • @OfficialStarcadian
    @OfficialStarcadian  4 года назад +112

    For the record, I've been a massive MKBHD fan longer than he's been a fan of me, so catch you on the next one
    peace

      Starcadian how does it feel to have him be a fan of your music?

    Starcadian is criminally underrated.

    Wind on the move
    A loving embrace
    As we walk down old Chinatown
    Looked in your eyes
    And studied your face
    As my world came tumbling down
    With half a truth and smiling scars
    You know you know there's more to you and me and us girl
    So you'll never be the same no matter where you are
    And we go and we go
    Sometimes high sometimes low
    Making choices we'll always regret
    But I'll always remember the cold Chinatown night we had
    A memory of pavement and skin
    Under light of the digital skies
    A cigarette indelible sin
    And I can't get you out of my mind
    With half a truth and smiling scars
    You know you know there's more to you and me and us girl
    So you'll never be the same no matter where you are
    And we go and we go
    Sometimes high sometimes low
    Making choices we'll always regret
    But I'll always remember the cold Chinatown night we had
    Wait for the harrowing hour
    You'll see what could've been ours
    You won't forget about me
    Sure as the sun and the sea
    And we go and we go
    Sometimes high sometimes low
    Making choices we'll always regret
    But I'll always remember the cold Chinatown night we had
    And we go and we go
    Sometimes high sometimes low
    Making choices we'll always regret
    But I'll always remember the cold Chinatown night we had

    I love Starcadian's music videos but, man... I really need a cohesive story explained for me for this entire arc. This guy is an under-rated artistic genius.

    • @robertaglarsen
      @robertaglarsen Год назад +1

      My guess: Starcadian is an entity, an emotion, a concept, an incarnation and an idea. He is the possessor and the possessed. The spirit of music, perhaps?

    • @nonya-bizness
      @nonya-bizness 9 месяцев назад

      I haven't watched all the videos but I'd guess by the name that Starcadians a rhythm, a pulse, a flow.

    Your production techniques and composition on the bass and drums, is so freaking good - Sunset Blood and Midnight Signals are my favourite albums because of how you devised and structured your beats and rhythm.

    Shitty taste algorithm is what i call the recomendations of youtube... though i finded you while searching for a 80-90s japanese pop songwhith the same name, i am happy that i tried one of your songs out.
    I wish you the best.
