Following along that Outer Space feeling I mentioned back when posted "Coming Home", there were years, decades even, where everything was down to earth. My thoughts and feelings were grounded in dirt and soil and paper and steel and hearts and minds.
Cut to only a couple years ago. I am introduced to the artist known as Manual, and fall completely in love with the music. This song is the leading title from an utterly out-there album of long, echoing songs in which there are songs with some droning, some intensity, some that are little more than space noise. The Countdown launched me back into the stars, and it didn't hurt when I visited the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum earlier this year, and this song randomly came up on my Ipod. Space-gasm!
