Transcript ｜ Kenshi Yonezu
What???
This is different. Symphonic.
This is a lot more interesting. Ok.
Cool. Cool triplets.
There’s a lot to get through here.
Back to the start.
So back to that original idea.
And it ends the same way that the short version ends there.
But that section in the middle, that just kind of stopped the, um, the tempo and gave us some symphonic stuff. That was really cool. Um… But the cool thing about it is that it’s just… just bursting at the seams with energy. And it draws me in. It really does. And, um, it’s fun to listen to with all the brass and everything.
It’s like ska and prog (rock) and big band all kind of got together and made a meatball. And it tastes pretty good. Sounds pretty good too.
I get chocked (up) on that one. That’s beautiful, man.
I love this song so much, man. This is such an honest and beautiful view of a relationship.
Oh my God!
Ok, I’m freaking sold. He is amazing. Every single song that I’ve heard of his I’m like, god there’s something really cool about it. From ‘Lemon,’ ‘Kickback,’ this.
Like, there’s so much to talk about with this song. Lyrically, I feel like there’s a lot of… there’s a lot of really relatable things that he talked about lyrically in this, and um… and man, just it… it just feels like a long-term relationship.
This is what a, like, really long-term relationship sometimes looks like, man. It’s not always beautiful, you know what I mean? And sometimes it’s messy and sometimes it’s like, I don’t care if you forget about me, we’ll find each other and fall in love again.
I feel like this song is such a true look at like soul mates and what I feel like that actually is.
