yeah i really dig that one too. the music video satisfies the motion graphics part of my brain 10fold. i think i side with the calmer one because it was my theme song when I lived on lego.com.
i feel more from music than lyrics. oddly enough a lot of the music i would consider shaping my world view either has the same few words repeated, lyrics i don't understand, or no lyrics at all
"since i left you" is also a hard hitter cause i found out the sample they use in the song is actually saying "since i met you" and that adds a whole new weight to the song. my first gf is exactly what that song makes me think of: the happy aura of discovering a new world, both in meeting her and leaving her
The Avalanches to me have a very simple meaning: summer.
Since Wildflower I'm always eagerly waiting for it to finally hit 20c so I can start playing these albums.
A little less for Since I left you, although A different Feeling and Electricity are really good for warm weather feeling.
But for Wildflower I can honestly play the entire thing.
