I recommended this to someone in 2017. on ajpw. wondering if it was u lol

this is such an underrated song

Right, more people need to know about this

[@abook945]

It is

[@glassofwater281]

This is hard to explain, but this reminds me of those old animated movies/shorts where the world looks horrific from the point of view of, say, a rabbit, and it shows how cruel things are from their perspective. Almost like a way darker version of Rats of Nimh. If that makes any sense. It just feels that way with the song style and cover art.

[@theallmightyboop4732]

The way he almost shouts the word "one" at the end is full of so much of anger. Its heartbreaking and emotional, and in a way, that anger feels justified. I feel like ive just peeked behind a curtain Or maybe im just reading to deeply into one word. Who knows.

[@apathetic_aesthetics]

I don't think you're looking too much into it! I feel like the emphasis on the word one shows how desperate he is for purpose, and how he sees no purpose in his life other than to hopefully nourish scavengers one day after he's died. The raw emotion in his words is one of the reasons I love this song so much :)

[@calebblack1420]

Im gonna learn this and sing it passionately to strangers

[@lebbuce2293]

Yo have you sung this to strangers yet?

[@calebblack1420]

@@lebbuce2293 I still like this music but I think I've finally grown out of my sad music phase. Music can control our moods to a point. Ever hear the phrase "when you get the blues, get a rhythm?" It's very true, only if your rhythms are all sad, you'll just be perpetuating a cycle. So I've tried to get into happier music. Music is just stored and recorded energy, so what your ingesting and projecting auditorily can greatly effect your mood and that of those around you. Not saying this is bad energy but it definitely carries a lot of sadness.

[@stinkyyyyii]

@@calebblack1420 Wow. That was deeeeep

[@ishaalimtiaz6715]

Really? For me it doesn't do that at all. If I'm sad and I listen to happy music, I don't get happy, I just don't resonate. And vice versa. I put music to match my mood so I can feel like I'm being related with, so it makes me feel less lonely :) I guess everyone is different. And also, AJJ music isn't 100% sad. Many of his songs have a bit of hope woven in, which can actually uplift sad moods. Like Brave as A Noun for instance has hope in it, which is really helpful. I think sad songs are most effective at mood improving when they carry hope with them. A good example would be Achilles come down by gang of youths - which I love for many reasons - its tune, its poeticness, its story, etc etc. But the most amazing thing about it is that it actually expresses a suicidal person's sad feelings while also giving counterarguments and hope, instead of just giving shallow hope without any argument to back it up. And I think that's very important, because most people only listen to advice if they feel like they've been understood, and sad songs with hope at the end achieve just that. If you put on happy hope music, then a sad person won't feel understood before the hope is given to them. (Aye, and all of Gang Of Youths songs tend to be like this, I love them just as much as AJJ)@@calebblack1420

RIP Stormy

[@queenmiller13]

For four fortnights I have fled from my fortress Foraging forests five footsteps in length Fortitude found within forty ounce bottles Flowing like flies from your face From your face And my neighborhood It's been filled brim with black cats And when I go driving they walk in my path all the time Every time First we were babies, we're birthing and dying Then we were children, we're playing and crying And then we're teenagers and smoking and fucking But now we're all grown up and we're sadly sighing And liking, mud larking, and licking our wounds We've created by lusting and lying to ourselves and to others We're sadly sighing We're sadly sighing We're sadly sighing We're sadly sighing And I'd like to be a big ball of meat That bees can buzz around and eat when I die So that I might be granted one sense of purpose

[@marid3308]

My friend bin showed me this song. We used to play this game called blockheads all the time together and a bunch of other people. The games Long dead and I haven’t talked to him since. If by some off chance you’re seeing this bin, I still remember the worm song you’re scared of and I miss you. Thanks for everything

[@carolime13]
