I like mind your manners, force of nature, and I am mine more than any song on no code or binaural.

Lowlight is incredibly boring and generic.

I'm starting to think Django is Stip's second account; created just to have someone to agree with.

I'm a really open minded guy. And I really respect your thoughts and opinions. And I always welcome your POV and your input. But... even subjectively... I can't wrap my head around that.

Love ya, boo. But you cray-cray.

That's true. Hey Django -- just curiously, off the top of your head, how many times on the last three albuns has Eddie cleared the first F sharp above middle C?

I'm not a singer, but I am guessing based on the question that it's not many?

I just don't understand how Lowlight is completely embraced when Future Days is so completely rejected.

Rolling atmospheric lyrical reflection versus schmaltzy sentimentalizing over poorly mixed piano chords. That's how.

But I LOVE both of them, so someone else should probably answer the question for you.

Lowlight's lyrics be pretty schmaltzy as well.

I completely disagree. But to each their own, I always say. Like I said, I love both songs. Future Days isn't trying to be anything other than heart-on-sleeve, naked, soppy sentimentality. It succeeds 100%.

Clouds roll by
Reeling is what they say
Or is it just my way?
Wind blows by,
Low light
Sidetracked, low light
Can't see my tracks,
Your scent-way back

Can I be here all alone?
Clear a path to my home
Blood runs dry
Books and jealousy tell me wrong
All I feel, calm
Voice rolls by,
Low light
Car crash, low light
Can't wear my mask,
Your first, my last

Voice goes by
Two birds is what they'll see
Getting lost upon their way
Wind rolls by,
Low light
Eye sight, low light
I need the light
I'll find my way from wrong, what's real?
Your dream I see


0 schmaltz.

I meant to type song, not sound.
