"if things end or get too heavy / we'll all float on..."
i just heard it for the first time 20 minutes ago. and it put me at total disequilibrium.
you have to listen to it three times to comprehend where it goes. isaac has discovered the talking heads and amalgamates it with the hush moments of the moon and antarctica.
it's rare that a song can make me smile big yawning smiles and cry at the same time.
if the rest of "good news for people who like bad news" is as bewildering and creative as "float on", i will be a very, very happy person.
things in my life have really been shitty and painful.
chris passing, my emotional dysfunction towards lydia, borderline poverty (i was stealing spoons of peanut butter from my roommate at one point, to my shame..), my grandfather, stoic, iron unchangeable, crying and saying that he was going to die and didnt want to...
float on pulled it all out and laid it down.
