Laying in bed, my thoughts form a hurricane in my mind.
Who am I?
What will I do with life?
How long before I have no home?
How will I pay my bills?
These questions flash through my mind as
I contemplate the depressing idea that is getting older.
Responsibilities are inevitable.
Childhood ends and;
you have to leave the kids' table eventually.
As I am instilled with a deep fear for my future
I hear a familiar song from somewhere in the house,
seeping through the walls, muffled in my room.
An important song from childhood,
once acting to mark the ignorant bliss of that era,
playing as if responding to my thoughts,
mocking my existential dread.
It’s a sweet electronic symphony of love
that makes my brain twinge
with a deep formidable melancholic feeling.
Closing my eyes, I dread tomorrow...
Faced with the possibility of no home,
it becomes easy to break one's back.
Looks like I'll be going back to the serving gig..
I leave you with this:
Electric Feel by MGMT
Although not originally an indie pop group,
after the release of Ocular Spectacular
The album quickly became their most popular release,
And feeling the pressure to conform to their audience,
they unhappily pursued their fame through this genre.
Before abandoning it for the more
individual style of their previous work.
Spectacular Ocular remains one of their most
popular albums to date.
Despite Electric Feel being the centerpiece of this blog post,
like with Kieran Hebden's ⣎⡇ꉺლ༽இ•̛)ྀ◞ ༎ຶ ༽ৣৢ؞ৢ؞ؖ ꉺლ
music in the previous blog post, I would highly
recommend checking out MGMT’s other works like their
2005 album Time to Pretend and their 2018 Little Dark Age.
Both fantastic albums, filled with very unique
and distinct sounds of beautiful sadness and melancholic joy.
Byee for now, I'll see you soon <3
p.s. Was gonna post this tomorrow but I had it now and to be frank,
I don't actually care about posting at "optimal times" for interaction.
Post whenever!! B)
