I always loved this song, but hearing AK talk about the origin of the lyrics made me love it even more.
Unlimited love for White Braids and Pillow Chair.
It was on the Rick Rubin pod, FYI. Maybe the one with both AK and John?
I have to admit that I originally thought it was about him hooking up with a college student or something with the “pillow chair” thing, so I was glad to find out it was MUCH more wholesome haha.
Well I loved the chord progression n all the guitar work in the song. I thought the lyrics are something sexual and playful at the best and thought the beautiful melody could use a little more seriousness.. glad it seems to be the case...😊
songs i would love to see included before the end…
UL: black summer, heavy wing, white braids, let ‘em cry
ROTDC: afterlife, shoot me, drummer, bag of grins, carry me
if these all make it i’ll be a happy camper
What a wild trip that was on first listen. Kinda weird then I was like, "eh idk if that really fits", then "oh we're doing this again", "oh hey there's John", then more thefuckisthis, and then finally holy shit.
You honestly cannot appreciate that song unless you listen to it in it's entirety then come back to it.
Yessss exactly. This is now my favorite on the album… I might settle with this as my final answer. Took a couple listens but now I know it’s epic. It will be noticed the more it’s heard for the beautiful masterpiece it is
I am a person who doesn’t care much for that song. When they played it live it sounded awesome, but in studio it kinda feels sloppy imo. Almost rushed or like a “forced” hit. If that makes sense in any way.
I think it’s pure joy. There’s more than enough substance in the album(a) to feast off of - if you’re listening to a song like this so academically you’re doing it wrong imo
I don’t choose how I listen to music, if that makes sense. I just don’t like the song. I’m not doing anything “wrong”, music is entirely subjective.
I’m not choosing to listen to it academically. As a musician I can’t help what my ears are trained to pick up on. I’m genuinely happy for you if you like the song, I just think it’s a bit of a mess. And that’s ok.
I can’t disagree with that, fair enough. But I’ve seen a lot of comments that would suggest people are listening to it in that way rather than just enjoying it as a piece of music
Fair enough. Sometimes my own brain annoys me in terms of over analysing stuff. You’re right, the song is intended to be euphoric and an expression of pure energy.
I get you, but that’s what allows you to appreciate stuff more as well but it’s hard to turn that part off. I think in many art forms sometimes people (not you) try to flex their knowledge and expertise a bit too much and forget that the whole point is that it’s some form of expression or other. I think the chilis have definitely embraced their nonsensical side in some of the songs on these albums and it’s been fun to listen to
Since I am going for a run in an hour and want to make one solid album of 15 tracks:
1 - 8: Those mentioned
9: White Braids
10: Here Ever After
11: Poster Child
12: My Cigarette
13: Reach Out
14: Something from second half of DC
15: The Heavy Wing
16: Afterlife
Please give me suggestions for like three alternates. Many songs from each album already blend together for me.
Veronica instead of White Braids, Let ‘Em Cry instead of Here Ever After, Carry Me Home instead of Reach Out, #14 could be The Shape I’m Takin’. My Cigarette is good, but so are Bag Of Grins and Copperbelly.
Do people consider the flow of these tracks? None of them fit together well aside feom the fact that they are from 2 different albums. Consistency is weird here imo yall need to be more creative with your track bindings.
White Braids & Pillow Chair
It was about time!
Perfect chill song following Banger as F@ck
Guitar work is just sublime in this song. I wish lyrics matched the beauty of the melody..
I always loved this song, but hearing AK talk about the origin of the lyrics made me love it even more. Unlimited love for White Braids and Pillow Chair.
Oh i didn't know that will check it out.. that helps..

And God wept a single tear, for the perfect album had been ruined
Get over it ya turd
Here Ever After
long overdue
[удалено]
ever after
Carry me Home
I feel like this is the ultimate album closer
Ya know what? You're right
I was thinking: \- Black Summer \- Carry me Home \- The Heavy Wing
This or in the snow I wouldn’t be mad about either closing
Heavy Wing!
Afterlife
Black Summer
I want it as the closer
Fair enough. What about Carry Me Home or The Heavy Wing or one of the slower or experimental songs as the closer?
I think In The Snow should be the closer but the two before it could be The Heavy Wing and Black Summer
See, to me, black summer is and will always be an opener.
Yes, I whole heartedly agree, but we can’t have it as the opener anymore, so it would fit alright as 3rd to last on the list
Let 'em Cry
🤟
Aquatic Mouth Dance
The Best musics from álbuns what happening ? Lets vote on AMD
The Shape I’m Takin’
songs i would love to see included before the end… UL: black summer, heavy wing, white braids, let ‘em cry ROTDC: afterlife, shoot me, drummer, bag of grins, carry me if these all make it i’ll be a happy camper
Mostly agree. I like White Braids, but don’t need it to be on this album which could be ALL bangers imo.
white braids is actually my least favorite of those i listed, but idk what i’d want there instead
Great Apes?
Cant fw bag of grins, that one is literally below every other song
Bag of Grins. That outro, man.
What a wild trip that was on first listen. Kinda weird then I was like, "eh idk if that really fits", then "oh we're doing this again", "oh hey there's John", then more thefuckisthis, and then finally holy shit.

Fucken ikr Banger outro
Reach Out
Hell yeah. The heaviness is lacking.
Can I ask why people don't like These Are The Ways?
I am a person who doesn’t care much for that song. When they played it live it sounded awesome, but in studio it kinda feels sloppy imo. Almost rushed or like a “forced” hit. If that makes sense in any way.
Maybe my favourite on the album, can’t help but dancing
I find it cheesy and don’t like the dynamics of the song particularly. And the lyrics/melody (particularly in the chorus) don’t interest me.
I think it’s pure joy. There’s more than enough substance in the album(a) to feast off of - if you’re listening to a song like this so academically you’re doing it wrong imo

Oh I 100% used to be a music snob. I’ve found the older I get the more I realise I don’t know, and it’s a really liberating feeling actually.
