When I'm feeling sad or when I think I don't want to live anymore I listen to this song and makes me feel better.

[breadboy]

This band's builds are epic feeling.

[JeppeBeier]

At first the music felt maybe a bit like reminiscing of the good moments of the past, but then about maybe a quarter into it, it started to feel more like looking ahead to the good times yet to come.

About half way through, it then started feeling more like actually putting the plans into motion and going after whatever goal was set in mind. The finale is like your are right near the peak and all the work is finally going to pay off.

The same day I discover Portico Quartet, then GoGO Penguin, was not a day for nothing :)

[empasse]

I wish I had discovered this back in 2017. Better late than never, I guess!

[ben]

The buildup at the end is just breathtaking.

I love these guys. I had a chance to attend their live performance and it totally took me away. I’ve never experienced something so pure and powerful like their music!

[chrishowland]

I discovered this band by accident when listening to radio 3 by accident and oh wow am I so glad I did. These guys play with such passion. This style of music is completely new to me and I love it this particular track I just listened to for first time and I LOVE IT. I’m typically an 80’s fan so this is so different to my usual choice of listening but by ‘eck it’s fantastic

IT WAS YEARS I DIDN'T HEAR SUCH A FRESH, MODERN, SENSiTIVE MUSIC. BELLISSIMO!!

[bernifitzsimmons]

This is beautiful. You have no idea how much I needed this brief pause today.
Thank you. Wow.

[davetinoco]

I love this! I just discovered this song today and I am in ecstasy. That saxophone is so smooth...the drums are like rippling waves in a pond, the piano is full of longing...it makes me want to run away from everything and enjoy life to the

Gondwana Records, thank you for this moments.

[sreesivaram]

I am obsessed with this track. Unexplainably beautiful! It takes me to a whole new realm of nostalgia.

[vegisaynom]

I first heard this song and watched this video 20 minutes or so after it got uploaded, and I've been unable to stop listening to it ever since! Absolutely beautiful! My favourite thing about it is that despite complexity of the drums at the end, they still don't overpower the piano, very impressive! An all round masterpiece!

[zedi]

Im so happy. You dont understand how much i wanted to find this song again. I dont know why i let go of it. I really missed it.

[jorgecuarezma]

I like to listen to this track before playing a football match, it makes me get in the right mood. I always end up very excited when it ends

This is the music video equivalent of what I visualize whenever I go down that rabbit hole like train of thought that starts with "what is even real?"
It's a perfect representation of how massive existence is compared to our own lives, while at the same time not dismissing the importance of our place within everything
