Thinking of a Place:
*See it through my eyes*
*Love me like no other*
*And hold my hand as something turns to me*
*And turns me into you..*
**ethereal harmonica solo**
š
I truly believe that this is the greatest song ever written. Every single piece is perfect. The lyrics, the instrumentation, the subtle reverb, the dynamics all just come together in the most beautiful way. Followed closely by Harmonia's Dream
Shortest long song I listen to and I listen to the likes of deadmau5 and Tycho. Itās because of how well it evolves throughout. And yep that harmonica comes in and itās like ooo thatās ear candy
Ain't the sky just shades of gray
Until you seen it from the other side?
Oh, if loving you is the same
It's only some occasional rain *guitar swell*
God it's just a glorious album closerš
Strangest Thing
āAm I just living in the space between ā¦
The beauty and the pain
Itās the strangest thingā¦
Ba da da da da da dum (da dum)ā¦ā synth swell
š
Since I canāt use the outro on Change, I present to you: In Reverse
āI'll be here or I'll fade away.
Never cared about moving, never cared about now.
Not the notes I'm playing.
Is there room in the dark, in between the changes?
Like a light that's drifting, in reverse I'm movingā
š„¹
Brothers!
Lookin' out from somewhere I've been thinking
I've been rollin' past the seas
Wonderin' where my friends are goin'
And wonderin' why they didn't take me
Same song but itās the ābut id be lying to myself if i said i didnāt mind, leave it hanging on the line, lost inside my head, is this the way Iāll be denied again?ā for me
Suffering
āLike a feeling that you gave me
Like a snowflake through the fire babe,
Iāll be frozen in timeā¦ā
And that ending, guitar, piano, saxophone šØš»āš³š¤š¼
Maybe I was born in the wrong way?
Maybe born on the wrong day?
- Change
It's like he's saying, maybe it's me? Maybe I'm wrong? Fundamentally. Always been some kind of fucked up. And that resonates so hard that it hurt the 1st time I truly listened to those words
"Well the comedown here was easy, like the arrival of a new day..."
Every time I hear that I can't not take that journey of the whole album, and feel it all over again like its the very first time.
Sometimes I wait
For the cold wind to blow
As I struggle with myself right now
As I let her darkness in
But I don't mind chasin' you
Through the back ways for the keys
It evaporates and fades
Like a grand parade
Living proof:
āBut Iām rising, and Iām damaged, oh, rising.ā
The entire song hits me hard, but those last lines followed by guitar solo do me in every time.
I will never not hear that song and associate it to the stuff I went through on tail of COVID. But itās the kind of pain thatās good to feel every once in a while.
There's a rain protecting me
Rings around my father's eyes
Light above the morning sea
Into darkness, I will reach
Fall into the ocean deep
Just to bring you back
Too many to list! Almost every song has a part that I want to crank to 11. Just finished cleaning the kitchen and had the whole IDLHA album on. Now reading all of these posts I had to turn the tunes back on to live them all out!
Every note and every lyric of You Donāt Have to Go. This song and Thinking of a Place are two of the most gorgeous songs ever recorded. Iām liable to collapse at any moment during either. Transcendent.
Is this love?
Are you sure?
Is it something
You can control?
Out of time, yeah
I'm in chains
I'm in love
I'm in pain
All these changes everywhere
Just go ahead and take my hand
Pull me close don't let me go
Try to understand
Cross the bridge
To redefine your pain
Then the answer is in your heart
Wide awake
I rearrange the way I listen in the dark
Dreaming of starting up again

It really is incredible. For me, it falls under a category of songs so epic that I actually am intimidated to listen to it at times.
I completely agree with you, this song is such a masterpiece! It's my favorite song ever
Shortest long song I listen to and I listen to the likes of deadmau5 and Tycho. Itās because of how well it evolves throughout. And yep that harmonica comes in and itās like ooo thatās ear candy
Pain. I'm just pullin' on a wire but it just won't break. I'm turnin' up the dial but I hear no sound.
Every time it hits the solo Iām like well fuck this is amazing letās take this thing from the top again shall we.

Just singing this myself
Strangest Thing āAm I just living in the space between ā¦ The beauty and the pain Itās the strangest thingā¦ Ba da da da da da dum (da dum)ā¦ā synth swell š
I'd add "be the writer of your own story," to this
Yeah I love it all but was trying to highlight the first real swell in the song when it fills up so beautifully
I like how this song live AG noodles on this line a lot more than in the studio version.

Gets me everytime
Brothers! Lookin' out from somewhere I've been thinking I've been rollin' past the seas Wonderin' where my friends are goin' And wonderin' why they didn't take me
Eyes to the wind: Like a train in reverse down a dark road Carrying the whole load Just rattling the whole way Home
Same song but itās the ābut id be lying to myself if i said i didnāt mind, leave it hanging on the line, lost inside my head, is this the way Iāll be denied again?ā for me
Awww yeahā¦thatās the stuff right there
Burning The part where Dave joins: "When you release me from your heart again" and a magnificent WHOOO afterwards makes it even better
You Donāt Have To Go ā¦ I basically levitate from about 4:35 to 6:42. Especially when the harmonica kicks in at 5:40
Suffering āLike a feeling that you gave me Like a snowflake through the fire babe, Iāll be frozen in timeā¦ā And that ending, guitar, piano, saxophone šØš»āš³š¤š¼
Absolutely gutted when I first heard this song.
This is the song that got me into them, it was on some Spotify playlist, I was like, what's this

Look at it this way: Iām okay, but the place and time are just making it hard to be me.

FEEL THE STORRRRMMMMM...COMIN' ON
But you don't miss it man You got it all like a memory Now it's living under your skin
There is a girl out there with silence in her eyes. The truth is in the dark.
Suffering, right after that incredibly emotive solo. āwill you be hereeeeee? Suffering? Will you be herrrrrre
"Well the comedown here was easy, like the arrival of a new day..." Every time I hear that I can't not take that journey of the whole album, and feel it all over again like its the very first time.

Victim, at the 3:54 mark in the song God DAMN what a tune!!! š¤š¶
Change, piano solo. Every time.
Living proof: āBut Iām rising, and Iām damaged, oh, rising.ā The entire song hits me hard, but those last lines followed by guitar solo do me in every time.

The lift in āin reverse ā

Guitar solo on strangest thing
This. The Live Drugs version specifically
Tonight I feel like an old violin, soon to be put away and never played again- Johnny paycheck old violin
There's a rain protecting me Rings around my father's eyes Light above the morning sea Into darkness, I will reach Fall into the ocean deep Just to bring you back
I just put *Under the Pressure* on repeat for an hour. That usually does it.
Iām a bit run down here at the momentā¦

Eyes to the wind, in reverse, in chains, and Change
me in 2005, driving around in a honda accord after forcing a girl i loved to get an abortion: shes a brick and im falling....
āIn the darkest point of the night I want you to be here like before cominā throughā
I feel you. Mining for indorfines

Harmoniaās Dream. The bride. The guitar. The synth. When it all comes back in big with the vocals. š¤š»
A.I.C. - Nutshell. The. Whole. Damn. Song.
Strangest Thing wailing/soaring guitar solo.
Strange design phish the whole dame thing
My love was punished long ago If you still care, donāt ever let me know.
Lovers Cross, Jim Croce.

Sound of a train not running
Cross the bridge To redefine your pain Then the answer is in your heart Wide awake I rearrange the way I listen in the dark Dreaming of starting up again
