This video is special. The low quality VHS only makes it more precious. NMH in Brooklyn on this rainy day with my ex girlfriend who I was in love with and she smartened up and broke up with me. Thinking back now, I'm so happy to have that experience.

@nolanpotter1 nolanpotter1, Do you know what the blues is? A real blues guitarist can get more emotion out of 7 chords than any carefully developed super elaborate composition. Jeff Mangum may not have played the blues, but he certainly understood how strong music writing and cooperation works.

damn, youre right, shame on me for shitting on his dream of meeting a regular person who makes good music! you know what would happen if he met jeff? he would be disappointed because he's probably expecting every word that comes out of his mouth to be profound and deep. it would be just as interesting as speaking to any other person. sorry, but his dream is stupid, and if im a douche for saying that then whatever. hopefully he strives for more meaningful things.

You don't really know what other people define as "profound and deep", do you? You also_ don't really know if this individual has such expectations. Maybe he'd just be incredibly happy to meet his idol. But hell, of course that's a stupid dream, because wanting to meet someone you adore is pathetic. And yes, yes, _all_ of us should strive for more meaningful things, because surely everybody thinks the same things are meaningful. It's not like we're any different.
