O superman (slowed + reverb)

[@mfrenchcazenovia]

The finest Laurie Anderson piece. I like it slowed down like this. It’s so much darker. “Here come the planes.”

[@KeeganS420]

Agreed I remember listening to this in my dads car as a kid, it being slowed makes it much darker

[@tydino101]

its the song being a song, its not made to be overly catchy, or overly processed. it is just a song, being a song. it just tells a story and has only a couple instruments, that being a robot like filter over a voice, a vocal drone that acts like a metronome, and a couple synths. this can make it sound mystical and in this case it makes it sound calming. and the meaning of the song is vague in the lyrics themselves aside from the theme of loss, and it can differ emotionally for different people, and in our case it is a sense of peace, like as the song puts it "this is your mother speaking" or it sounds motherly and premature, like everything in this world isnt allways out to get you and once it does, you've allways got time and even if you leave first, eventually your mother will join you as you both did good.

[@angelenarodriguez4506]

This feels like a family grieving their child. They lost them tragically like while they were in service. This song feels like their agony while in disbelief, desperately trying to hear their kid. The voice machine being her kid not answering their phone anymore, “This is your mother! A-are you coming home?” As she is trying to avoid the fact her baby really is gone. She even goes on to start to imagining conversations with their baby, “oh mom and dad, mom and dad-“ as if her kid has responded to their grieving, trying to comfort her. A tragic story of a grieving mother and their baby who they will never see again in their lifetime. As they say “no parent should have to bury their baby

and they were in service doing what? killing other people's kids.

[@user-bc9fh3jv3b]

they are 'american planes'

[@angelenarodriguez4506]

@@user-bc9fh3jv3b you sound dumb, 9/11 was caused by American planes . It could also be because America has always been very proud and boastful of their weaponry and some countries then copied it etc. we had such a thing about American made weapons in America only that they were turned against us starting with minor machinery. The line is explained by the writer to be about Americans “American made” mindset and that because it is American it must be safer right? Well in 9/11 they were American airliners. Maybe you should do the research like I did before I commented twat 😂

1:42 Made me cry so much because i used to have a pet crow. I met the crow at school 5 months ago. Me and the crow were besties for some reason. I would carry bird food inside of my pant pockets and feed it. The crow's name was "Reaper" because its claws was very, very sharp. Maybe 3 months later, i found Reaper's dead body. I was still at school but this was before summer break. I took a feather off of Reaper's body and i kept it and i decided to find a place to dig a grave for the body. When i got back home, i cried so much. RIP Reaper. If you read all of this, thank you. (Pls no hate comments. Im having a very hard time with this situation. Its now been about 4 months since the death of my pet crow.) FUN FACT: My pet crow used to bring me coins! (Or random scrap peices.) Btw i never told anybody about this exept for a school counselor! If you say that crows could attack you, i could believe you but my pet crow was an absolute sweetheart! My friend wanted to pet it and it was very friendly! I hope you read all of this! Stay safe and remember...some crows are not dangerous.

Are you coming home? Hello, is anybody home? Well, you don't know me, but I know you And I've got a message to give to you Here come the planes So you better get ready, ready to go You can come as you are, but pay as you go Pay as you go And I said, "Okay, who is this really?" And the voice said "This is the hand, the hand that takes This is the hand, the hand that takes This is the hand, the hand that takes" Here come the planes They're American planes Made in America Smoking or non-smoking? And the voice said, "Neither snow nor rain Nor gloom of night shall stay these couriers From the swift completion of their appointed rounds" 'Cause when love is gone, there's always justice And when justice is gone, there's always force And when force is gone, there's always Mom (hi Mom!) So hold me, Mom, in your long arms So hold me, Mom, in your long arms In your automatic arms Your electronic arms In your arms So hold me, Mom, in your long arms Your petrochemical arms Your military arms In your electronic arms

An unfortunat group of several victims had to listen to this over and over as their murderer tortured them to it in london as the story was relayed to me.

Just a creepy peice of.. i dont know....... music

[@RuairiDavies]

What?

[@digressingalice2764]

​@@RuairiDavies there's a serial killer fubbed as the superman killer. He often had the original song looped and made his victims listen to it before he killed them. Must be the metronome-like aspect of the song. I wish there's a study made on this, if certain beats can induce certain people with intrusive thoughts that lead to action
