Re: Setting Sun
Ending on the percussion from the beginning would be great and a lovely change for the live version, but the studio version is perfect as is, especially without a fade-out. Fading the song out after saying “let us not fade” is kinda cheesy and too on the nose, and the album closing on that heart wrenching final note is such a beautifully sad moment. It highlights the song’s message to cherish the fleeting time we have before it ends, and that end can come suddenly.

Re: Setting Sun
Why must it fade out? It doesn't fade in.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I think this song is a little bit overrated.

Re: Setting Sun
It is the queen bee of the album. When combined with other parts of the album. It points to some sort of a spiritual transformation of Ed . He seems to really be leaning into faith as opposed to how he was holding on to hope in the past.stip wrote:was really struck by ‘if it’s not okay then I guess it aint the end’ this morning

Re: Setting Sun
interesting-i havent read the song quite that way. i see it as affirming and resolving what he already knew and believed but maybe had startes to doubt
