The "original" that you likely heard was from a Daytrotter session. Which is basically like live internet radio. It wasn't something we technically recorded for ourselves. We love that one too and are glad it exists but it was never our intention to use that as the album version. It's special, like every recording folks do for Daytrotter. You are probably just super used to that one. Maybe this one will grow on you too. :)

Thanks Kimya for all the smiles and love I've spread with your music 💜

[@tonytwotries1162]

that "hi" that aesop rock and kimya dawson does just warms my heart up so much!

[@CasperInkyMagoo]

A lot of Aesop’s music comes from his struggle, and for a long time I was sure we’d lose him. That smile gives me hope for him. I don’t know what I’d do without his music.

I remember in high-school seeing Kimya and Aesop Rock in concert. It was one of the best shows I've ever been to! Now as an adult I'm listening to this song for the first time in years and so much I can relate to now. I'm 26 living in my first place that has a washer in dryer in it and I just applied to be a lunch lady at my son's school lol!

[@stencilism2094]

(Both) My whole life is a delicate cycle. (Aesop) Inside a jar with a lid, a giant arm With a head, they say it used to walk Upright and like(light?) New York after 10, one Day it woke up out of order nothing more To extend, delicate cycle in the alpha Of its orbiting's end (zen?), when interpersonal Skill is already poor at its best, a Conversation can be riddled with exorbitant Debt, and you don't know it, but I know I owe you More than I've kept, so if you find a biohazard By your door on the step, maybe it couldn't Find its faculties but swore it would help, Wanted to be a larger part than his Abnormalcies let, hang on , I'm over-nighting Eyes with a headlight deer stare, one up Vin van, UPS an ear pair, wear them if you Need a new perspective on a weird year, and One day when I'm better we can square Away a fair share, the last frame silhouetted By the sun was an air mail stamp on a still- warm tongue. (Kimya) I was twenty-six years old the first time I lived in a house with a Washer and dryer in it and that's the year I bottomed out, maybe What was missing was the sense of community that comes from Hauling your big old load out in public and airing your dirty Laundry in the company of other people who also don't have the amenities at their convenience in a home that's so set up that They never have to leave, I miss the smell, the dust, the coins, the Trust, the squeaky cards, the vibrations, the bucket full of bleach, The dryer sheets, the old payphone, the giant sink, *I'd watch my Daddy mop the floor, and my heart started with a quarter.* *Repeat once (Both) My whole life is a delicate cycle. (this was found on a lyrics wikia i apologize if any of these lyrics are incorrect i placed parenthesis in a couple spaces where i was unsure. Please if any are spotted feel free to post corrections it would be greatly appreciated. i hope those of you out there have a good day.) :)

Kimya, I've loved you since you chomped on my hair at a show in Durham when I was a teenager. I didn't think I could love you any more, but then I became a mom, and now I appreciate everything you stand for that much more. Thank you for being such a badass musician and mama. We love you!

[@stgm]

One of the DJs on my local station hosts his own show every couple nights and he plays all kinds of music that's not in their usual rotation, I've heard Aesop Rock on there a few times, he's played this a few times.

[@spaceurchin114]

When it comes to RSE, I am mostly into Atmosphere, Dem Atlas, Brother Ali and bump Aesop Rock every now and again, but this is the first time I ever hear the Uncluded. I had heard of them, but I finally got around to really experiencing them. And this song in itself fills me up with so much joy and inspiration, that my linguistic skills could barely hold even a smidgen of how I really feel about it. Sometimes I think things along the lines of: the human race is a disease of this planet, AND our mainstream music is a prime example of our distorted priorities - money, lust, greed and delusion - But then I hear this... and I'm like: nah man... that's only one piece of the whole pie.

[@spaceurchin114]

I read the lyrics on rap genius, but how does what I wrote have to do with me missing out parts of what Aesop talked about? I`d like it if you elaborate.

Im 14, and this song just reminds me when i was little, like i wanna run through some sprinklers in the grass in slow motion and not have the stress of what people thought or how life was going to go or how much struggles i would have. I love Kimya, and she has always made me feel happy and has been there for me when i needed it, and i love how all her songs just relate to how im feeling, she's so amazing in so many levels.

I just want to say thank you to you both--I've been a fan of both of your works separately for many years and your music always got me through the darkest times. I'm an English teacher now for "at-risk" kids and we'll be using this song in our poetry class next week. I've got many students who are fans as well and want me to say hi!

Can I recommend Cocoa as a happy medium, right in the middle of the east coast of FL? There's a venue in Historic Cocoa Village called The 321 Local that's about the same size as the places Aesop was playing at on his last tour, and regularly draws a decent sized crowd. Afroman played there last year, and tons of good local bands play there regularly. Alternatively, If you guys wanted to go big, there's the UCF Arena in Orlando. ~10,000 seats there. There's also a few good venues in Tampa.
