i have a vivid memory of discovering this while studying late at night in my university computer lab. it is such a strong memory for some reason

[RedIndicator]

near impossible to listen to this and not get tears in your eyes

[erickwireman]

This song brings back some childhood memories. Most were from the mid to late 90s.
I was at a friend's house.
I looked out the window of my parents' old Dodge Spirit. The sky was clear, telephone poles were going by, the corn fields were mowed down. I was playing outside in the grass and dandelions on a balmy afternoon.

[BoulderOrange]

Heard this maybe 15 years ago on mushrooms with my buddy. His older brother said we should listen to it. We had the giggles so bad listening to the chair part. Such a beautiful song

[tanishav.]

I have no clue why, but this song just makes me think of images the feel off, Like a house on a hill with perfect green grass and a water tower with a single road leading up the the house, or a liminal pool.

I remember buying this CD at Borders in '95

AW man ., I just found out about Aphex Twin LAST WEEK,

[adrianbenedictmendoza]

So fresh. I would be listening to this till I watch the sons of my sons playing on the beach as the sun goes up or down.

[MrHalloweeniee]

this track perfectly represents the coming to terms with a beautiful tragedy. Understanding Loss and Sadness through contemplation lead to appreciation for all the good that life has to offer.


Just my opinion

[sorhomy]

reminds me of uncle that past this September the intro and ending is everything

[belagenaro]

reminds me of my lonely walks around slovenia

[ayy]

Such a strangeness to the start of this track. For some reason it reminds me of the Beserk soundtrack Behelit even though they're way different.

[GuniBaldurGislason]

This song feels like meditation to me. If that makes any sense.

3 people down voted this brilliant piece of music?

[PRIMUS]

this is the soundtrack to your confusion

[johndonohue]

Understated sonic elegance with electro-funk heart.

[xxxTHROATBANGERxxx]

Dude crazy. He put a mosquito buzzing in the track

[sdani]

This will always be my favorite of Richard's songs. It's not quite like any other song on ICBYD.. can anyone suggest another song that sounds like this?

[MTVROC]
