Yves Tumor - Limerence [Extended]

"Limerence" from the album mono no aware (PAN 77). p-a-n.bandcamp.com/album/v-a-...

[@Memi-cp4yc]

To me this song is not about depression or suffering. I feel nostalgia, more romantic feelings.. Summer night in the city... Breeze.. Sounds of cars..

[@samthesmartfella]

it reminds me of the thumbnail too, just alone in the woods during a mild summer day, not too humid, overcast with a brisk breeze of smoking barbecue, like at a park. Its one of those songs that you swear sounds familiar.

[@gatoconp0lla]

the sound of the waves too

[@neon_jam1127]

My girlfriend left me an audio message via WhatsApp with this playing in the background and it perfectly frames the feeling of nostalgia of the everyday things we experience when we're in a relationship. I saved the audio clip and it's one of my most treasured possessions. She was only talking about a test she was preparing for that turned out to be a few questions about herself and laughing about it, but when I listen back to it her voice and this track send me to a place of pure happiness.

[@vivilevin1014]

I love how everyone portrays this song differently. Some sad some nostalgic some happy, but I believe this song is trying to describe limerence into music. If you’ve never experienced limerence before it’s like the up and down of this same feeling over and over. It’s a false feeling of adoration, love, attachment, idolization, and happiness attached to a person you barely know. I just love how this music sounds exactly like it: the notes playing the same tune over and over, and it’s not quite a real sound. It’s not any instrument at all but almost a distorted sound of a blend of them, most likely electrical sound. Exactly like limerence: love that seems real but is just obsession

[@gabeschulze]

I always fantasized about just disappearing without a trace, feeling free and leaving people wondering. If I’m being honest I was always the happy girl with many friends. I loved being around people and people liked me, But now I’m completely different. I don’t think anyone thought I would end up like this. But I’m so happy. I wanna be that person that randomly pops up in your mind leaving you wondering what ever happened to them? Where did they go? Lots of people wanna be known, but I just wanna be missing.

story time, two years ago i was listening to this song a lot because my university friend gave it to me as a suggestion during a sunny day we barely talked but he was kind, he was very gentle and he was the kind of boy who's obsessed with spirituality and he used to tell me that this song reminds him of a spiritual realm. even tho we didn't use to talk a lot but there was that solid bond between us; even if we don't see eachother for months the bond is still strong once we are reunited. one November night, i heard that he passed away in a car accident. i didn't want to believe he had breathed his last, everytime i listen to this song i remember him, his voice, the fresh air on my face when we used to talk together. it hurts to say it but i had some real feelings for him and now he died... rest in peace K.

[@thesaddestdude3575]

Yeah, as if it slowly progresses. It feel like a cold winter morning waking up before the sun rises to go to school. You don't really want to go, you want to turn around and go home. You are halfway there and the frost has started to nibble on your nose. With every step you take the pain in your stomach grows greater. The lights outside are still on as dawn starts to throw its blue glow over the roads and walkways. But you just cant go any further, instead you go to the park. Its on the way there, you find a bench and sit down. Slowly the morning commuters reach their destinations and the pathways fall quiet, the skies in the distance have started to turn orange, suddently all the lamps shut off, a new darkness emerges. This lasts some minutes until its suddently broken with an intense red flash of sunshine. The world around you is cold below freezing but filled with the warmest shade of sunlight. Its starts to snow heavy flakes of snow slowly falling to the ground, being almost without wind. Every single flake of snow lit by the morning sun. You wish you could just sit there for some ours and just be for yourself for a while, but the cold is slowly creeping through your mittens and your socks. You dont want to go, but you also dont want to go home. You dont want your parents disapointment but you cant go to school either, you just cant take that right now. And yet you cannot stay. A decision will have to be made. Even though it is just a teusday morning, the choice feels like it will determine the rest of your life.

Limerence- Is the feeling of being so in love with someone you grow an unhealthy obsession to them, similar to a yandere. Feelings or instances of Limerence are usually caused by under lying health issues, like depression, anxiety or obsessive disorders. Limerence can occur once or maybe a struggle throughout a person's life time. Although Limerence itself is not a mental disorder.

limerence- this song to me feels like being in love with someone who's suffering from severe mental illness and slowly watch their own mind eat away at them and destroy them and not being able to do anything about it. it slowly you start to go into the same state as them and you both fall apart together.

Try to be as healthy as possible, exercise, having a good diet, being aware and treating your medical problems included. Keep people in company with you that you know will love you and will try to help you with your issues. Make a huge effort to be active. Seek therapy and possibly medication. Always make a huge effort to talk to people and to become more social. Don't put down yourself if you see constant failure in your life. Take little steps to ensure some happiness and build up yourself from there. Write down your goals if you have to (make sure they're realistic and attainable). Think about your problems in a more practical way. Really make an effort to understand why you feel the way you do. It requires a lot of thinking and time and patience and you may not ever completely solve all your issues but you make your life more manageable. As someone who has been suffering with mental problems myself for most of my life, I really hope things go well for you.

[@calumleys1129]

this song resonates emptiness - the one after breakups, long periods of sadness, dissapointment, loneliness, its an emptiness that changes depending on when / where you listen to it. well depends on the weather, but if i hear this song in my room as i study it enhances it, makes me question a lot more of the things i do and why i do them. if its freezing cold, early in the morning, cloudy but not yet raining, an eerie gloominess / darkness on the world, well it changes. it forces me to question what has been troubling my mind. its an emptiness that lingers in your stomach, masquerading as hunger when in reality its a yearning for warmth or love. its a test of a genuine good mood or not if u can listen to this song in full and not end it in a sadder state. i don't know how yves tumor did it, but he managed to create a loop that enhances emptiness, sucking out any fake notion of happiness. like a winter without the festivities of Christmas or New Year, where all that is left is freezing temperatures, short days, and melancholy.

[@__Hannah__]

Usually I would get annoyed by a loop, but this one is different. It's entrancing, and there's this odd comfort and satisfaction from the repetitiveness, kinda like my thoughts. Sometimes I feel like ripping my head off because they drive me insane, but other times it has a constant calming effect. The best analogy I can think of is when waves hit the shore over and over and after a while of listening or watching, it just fades into the background and blends in with everything else. It's also similar to how some people need white noise to fall asleep. Without white noise to drown out the silence or ringing of the ears, it feels impossible to fall asleep. Likewise, it feels impossible to stay sane or at ease without obsessive/repetitive thinking (to those with obsessive thought patterns). When it comes to obsessive thinking of a person, say that you have a crush on, I feel like it's a way of escaping from reality? It's easy to think of said person, even if you're not thinking anything in particular about them. For example, it's easy for me to just get lost in thought about someone I like, without even creating scenarios in my mind or recalling memories. It's more like an emphasis on the comforting feeling of what it's like to be around them (in person or just talking to them and hearing their voice), or of what I know about them as a whole. Sometimes it's also just imagining what it would be like to be in their shoes (what is their daily life like? what do they think about? what do they find entertaining? what kinds of hardship do they face? what makes then angry/sad/happy? what kind of deep thoughts do they have? how well do they get along with their family? what would it be like to be them for a day (think the way they do, have the same memories, and all)?...). Which all leads me to the conclusion that it's the equivalent of numbing out/escaping from reality. We're directing our thoughts anywhere but on ourselves and what's happening around us-- and our brain sees the person we like as an easy target to do so. The worst part is when you want to quit defaulting to obsessively thinking of the person you like, and it literally feels impossible because you've been doing it for so long. And it hurts when you realize how unhealthy it is and that you may never have genuinely liked them from the start. I want to believe that I genuinely like them, but I'm starting to doubt it. At this point it's just a coping mechanism that my brain latched onto. I want to quit thinking of them in an obsessive manner so that I can think of them in a normal/healthy way-- you know, not 24/7. Only if I've recently hung out with/talked to them, get reminded of them once in a while, and worry if they're doing alright on occasion. Sometimes I wonder whether or not I've genuinely liked someone or if I ever will. I know what it means to truly care for and love someone, but I don't think I've ever experienced it. At least not romantically. Which reminds me of something my sister once told me. She said, "knowledge isn't the same as wisdom." In other words, knowing something (in this case, what it means to love someone) isn't the same as experiencing it firsthand. I love my family and cat beyond what words can describe (I mean I could if I tried, but it would be a lot and this comment is already long enough lol). I hope I can love someone to the same extent if not more some day. One of my biggest fears is that I never will. Sorry if any of this was confusing to read >.

[@Donny427]

This. The warm, comforting feeling when thinking about them is almost addictive. Its just so easy to slip into those thoughts. My situation is gathering the courage to take these thoughts into action and to let my feelings be known, regardless of the outcome. I think we can all experience love, we just need to put ourselves out there and in as many situations as possible to eventually experience it. 80 years of a lifetime is enough time to find it

[@smaliaamalia]

You just put everything i'm experiencing into words. I think i'm obessesed with them.. i don't know if i should actively fight against it or not. I just don't know.

i remember going to my sisters house in august 2020 and laying on the couch at like 2 in the morning listening to this song, the windows were open with a light breeze and it was thunderstorming. i remember listening to the late night traffic and wondering where those people were going, I didn't have a care in the world since i had the school year off from covid-19. only if I could go back to those days. unfortunately I'm starting highschool and my sister is wrapped up in college and work so i wont be able to visit her as often. but again, I would do anything in the world to be chilling on her couch listening to this song and playing cod. everything was so simple and I wish I could go back to those simple times, I wish I was able to cherish those moments.

This song feels like you're realizing that everything you felt was limerence and not necessarily real love. Or maybe the feeling of when limerence becomes true love.

i remember hearing this when i was in 7th grade at the real peak of my first encounter with depression. it was too much for me back then, i couldnt take how sad i felt. i am much older now, but still not fully formed. there is so much happening in my head but i dont let any of it out. all these ideas and passions feel like they are locked behind a thin pane of glass, that my hands are extending in every direction as far as they can but still cannot grab anything. i feel that life is taunting me with the self i could be, i have so much love for music and videogames and art and people and i want to give myself to those who share that passion and use all my energy to create incredible stories and sounds and put forth ideas to my friends and to the world that can help people realize the love they have for what makes them happiest. i cannot figure out where to go. i feel as though i am being pulled downwards into the ocean and i can see the light from the surface slowly fading. i feel that i am weak, given all the opportunity of any human in the world and nothing to show for it. i am so tired of living like this

[@dim1414]

know that you are not weak. there are obstacles for you to face if you want to become that self you mentioned, but it's nowhere near impossible. channel that passion or you will regret it even more in the future. you owe this to yourself.

[@ct-gt2dt]

quit listening to music that makes you sad and wasting your time. choose rather you want to be a dev for games or a musician and walk on a path straight for long enough to achieve the goal. one or the other will actually require your full attention. if you really feel like you have this immense passion behind a thin pane of glass, well then shatter the glass. no one wants you to fail but your self, life is not taunting you. life is just simply hard to begin with and any goals you set worth that are achieving will be a bit soul consuming. you shouldn't;t worry about making other people find their love in the world when you seem lost yourself. figure yourself out and do something with your life and you will be happy. you are "tired of living like this" because you know you should be doing better.

This music invites you into your mindscape. Whenever I hear these kinds of songs I immediately go into the comments. The way people open up to this void, seeking to connect and be understood in their personal struggles. The stories that come out; suffering, loneliness, depression, a sense of being disconnected from the world. A truly shared human experience.

[@everlasting_me]

It sounds like the hope and happiness trapped under all that depression and pain is slowly trying to escape out and into the open. The immense reverb being the empty space it has to fill, while the static is its battle with our dark thoughts. Each high note appears from nothing and rises up attempting to poke above the clouds, similar to finding joy in small things in life while being surrounded by very big but sad parts.

i saw a comment of someone saying this feels like you're in a tunnel and you see a light not knowing when you're gonna get there but you know you're getting closer. the way i thought of that example is like being in love with someone and that person is the light that you see. you dont know when you're going to get them but you think to yourself that you're getting closer and closer. at the end, it was a waste of time because you were never close enough to get what you wanted, you were just chasing for someone that never loved you as much as you did.

Wow, I remember listening to this in February of last year, so depressed and in a horrible place mentally, as well as being tangled up in a toxic relationship. I’m listening to this now in a beautiful house, with my beautiful new family, and I have a whole new perspective of things. I was suicidal then, but here, I’ve never felt more alive.. I love life, I love my friends, I love my family.. I’m in a much better place. Im in SH and ED recovery, and I’m doing amazing.. I feel wonderful. Im loving life, and I’m so happy I didn’t end it.

It's not depression. It's memories. They live in you, but suddenly you realise you've actually started to live in them. You're stuck, incapable of living another moment without comparing it to the old, better version of it. The Crucifixion of you life. The slow, burning sound of the end of the cigarette. It's now yours. You start to think of death more often, watching old people who don't realise they're close to "it". It's a weird feeling. You should enjoy life, right? Even pain itself. An experience of humanity. I don't have to stop, I can't stop, even if I want. -20:11

This is the feeling of losing so many people that you have that gag feeling before you cry but you can’t cry anymore, it just hurts. It aches deeply, like something inside of one’s self is getting eaten away. It’s not depression, just pure despair. The resilience becomes a roadblock of emotions trapped inside of you. The sinking feeling of dread and future abandonment makes you hug your knees to stay warm against a cool breeze, but no matter how tight you hold only some places are warm as the rest is bare and exposed. Withering away the cold gets worse until you can’t feel your nose, but it’s not that you can’t feel it because you feel the numbness, the tingling, it’s the absence of the ability to feel that what makes it hurt. The frostbite is painful but the lack of blood flow makes it look dead. The pain of losing someone like losing a limb.

remember that nothing in life is permanent. the only thing we can be assured of our mortality, and it is up to us to learn how to truly deal with that fact. we can choose to end it shortly, or continue living on. "should i kill myself, or should i have a cup of coffee?", albert camus had once quoted. meaning, that our lives are as meaningless as a cup of coffee. you could kill yourself, yes, as life is so absurd that you could end it any minute, but you could also just have a cup of coffee. life doesnt make any sense, its illogical, but that is why i will choose a cup of coffee over the other option every day. life in its entirety is absurd, but that doesn't mean we have to suffer for all of it. if it is truly meaningless, i will try to make my short time on this earth as comfortable as possible, because there is no point in making myself suffer more. happiness is temporary, but so is sadness and suffering. without the hardships, there is no happiness, and there is nothing to be learned. the hardships will pass, but it is up to you to find how to make the periods of struggle easier to deal with. there was a point in my life where i felt this exact same way, that there was no way of making it to my adult years because of everything i was going through, i wanted to end it all. even when i was 18, i still went through struggles that made it feel like there was no way i could make it to the next year. but i am here, and i am proud of the fact. not everything is ideal, i still have some struggles and problems that i am working to manage and adapt, but i am *alive*. eternal happiness is unrealistic, we will all have problems, but some will be easier to manage than others. the key is to be kinder to yourself, appreciate the small things. appreciate the mornings you wake up, the mornings where you can get out of bed, baby steps. there are some days where i was completely bed-ridden, i couldn't get up because of how depressed i was, i wished i was dead in those moments, but looking back, i appreciate that i was able to open my eyes, and my heart was still beating. there are days where i barely made it out of bed, days where ive gotten out of bed at 7pm instead of 10 am how i do now. i am still proud of myself, though, because i still managed to get out of bed. treat yourself as if this is your first time at life, be easier on yourself. make small, tiny, goals, and i can promise, in the long run, you do appreciate it. i made it through the eye of the storm, and so can you. i believe in that fact, and i am proud of you that you are still here. i hope my words meant any consolation, take care my friend.

It's odd. The juxtaposition of the emotions I feel listening to this leaves me baffled; it greets me like a stranger during our first meeting, yet hugs me like a nostalgic memory of a lifelong friend at the same time. It awakes anxiety and peace, misery and mirth. It blends my past and present into a jumbled mixture, and I can't shake off the questions that's forced it's way into my mind: am I truly happier, or am I still stuck in the same old loop? I feel lost. I have no clue what to do with my life, even though the present is better than my past has ever been. Maybe it's because I'm scared of loosing myself again? Every day, everything goes the same exact way; I'm not living, just existing. Looking in from the outside, my life looks fine. Still, it feels bleak, wrong, out of place. What am I supposed to do? In spite all of this, I, for once, feel held. I feel heard, and understood. I assume most of you in the comment section feel the same way. I hope things will get better for us all, no matter what's chaining us away from our goals and happiness.

I frequently reminisce about small conversations I had with people. Remembering how happy I felt talking to them or hanging out with them. I remember these things too easily, just as easy as it is to be forgotten by them. I cling onto those memories because they were genuinely the last time I felt happy. I appreciate those moments dearly, even if they've moved on. I'm grateful for all I've met, but I took it for granted, and now I'm here alone. It feels like life is moving fast, but I think it's because I never really paid attention to it/appreciated it. Now I'm watching everyone grow, while I'm stuck in the same spot, and it feels bittersweet.

[@user-nd8tb4dd8g]

To me, this sounds like the natural transition between something "enjoyable" and something "unwanted" but not necessarily "Bad", like the last weeks of summer vacation before a new school year, the transition between sunny and bright summer days and colder but vibrant autumn nights, sort of like a sunset sky, if you want, where brightness and darkness meet each other, but darkness slowly gaining more precense. It feels like the days are running out of warmth, school makes you nervous but also excited because of the new possibilities that come, so all you can do in that moment is enjoy the last days of rest to the fullest and accept that they are soon to be over, while you patiently await for the "unwanted" to arrive.

[@macka2916]

To me this song reminds me of getting caught up in all the romantic aspects of a false relationship all for it to go bad and eventually turn sour. At first you’re both reaching to look and be like the ideal perfect couple, doing and saying the things you think need to say rather than going at your own pace and moving way to fast by observing how other relationships happen around you rather than making the relationship your own… eventually you both can’t put up the act anymore and one person crumbles and breaks character, leaving you to either perform alone til the end of the show or to also leave the situation. It never fares well when you rush and force things to happen in a relationship… sure appreciate what you have but please don’t force yourself to try and make happiness from a short term life aspect. I love you all - M

This song makes me think of the beach, and my first relationship. My highschool girlfriend and i dated for 5 years and went to the same community college together, they were the best 5 years of my life. We’d go to the beach for a week with my family every year, for 4 years in a row, and they were the happiest times i’ve ever experienced. The fourth year was great, but there was this looming sense of dread and anxiety over the whole week, as we were both about to move out of town, to the same university. A part of me knew it would be the last year we spent together at the beach, and i so badly didn’t want that week to end. We were best friends and we both considered eachother soulmates. We completely got eachother, and now that we aren’t together it’s been difficult not to ruminate on what we had. I know we both need to move on and live our own lives, but for so long we were so comfortable and familiar with one another. This song takes me back to those warm summer nights at the beach with her, walking along the waves in the dark holding hands, the wind blowing in our hair as we talked about everything and anything, looking at the stars and laying together. I’m still so deeply in love with her, and it hurts to know she has likely moved on and won’t reach out to me again. It’s the end of the happiest chapter in my life so far. I’m hopeful for the future and know more is to come for me, but i wish i could rewind time and just experience those years over again, falling in love with her and having a best friend like no other. I wouldn’t trade any of it for the world, and i wouldn’t change a single thing about what we had. I feel a sense of pure nostalgia when listening to this, i can almost hear every word she’s ever said to me, every date and activity we did together replays in my mind when listening to this song. How i wish i could experience it over again. I guess i hope someone out there will read this and find solace in my words and realize they aren’t alone in all this.
