I voted for DT , I have no shame


Me too. I tried the Swan’s track for about 7 minutes but it was pretty boring….

^ Maybe it should come with a warning. This music builds very slowly, do not attempt unless one is into very atmospheric, ambient music else boredom is almost sure to ensue. To me it's panoramic and immersive and not at all boring, but of course it depends on what music one is used to and into. There is Swans that to me is satisfyingly mesmerising, cathartic and transcendent that will just be a total borefest, or in one ear and out the other, or just noisy, to others. Vive la difference. I can appreciate that it would test the patience of many. Swans can require something of a commitment.

Time for the BTS ("Bring the Sun", is there any other BTS?) girls reaction video to Swans 1996's "Helpless Child" (one of the greatest tracks ever for me) to hopefully breathe a little more emotion (and a little less boredom) into this: ;)

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.
