Great Movie, Hearing this song makes me want to see the movie again!

Believe it or not, Pink Floyd did not invent that sort of vocal phrasing.  To me, it's more reminiscent of T. Rex than it is of Pink Floyd - especially in the melody.  Singers have probably phrased like that since the 1940s.

Beautiful segway into Air...wow.....

And today too!  I was waiting for it, and it was a sweet segue.

Yes and no.  No, because I suspect the 'influences' pre-date both bands.

 

But that's a nice compliment.  And yes, Air is worthy. :-)

Oh yeah... and that continues throughout the rest of this album. I also hear it on 'How does it make you feel?' and 'Radian' from their album '10,000 Hz Legend'.

Its the DSOTM horn, I think. To me, this is 'somewhere down the coincidence river'.

Anyone else hearing a major Pink Floyd influence here? Even the vocal phrasing is lifted from them!!!

I've heard a couple of other cuts off of this album, and though I like this, my favorite is the utterly haunting 'Empty House.' That's just about the saddest, most beautiful instrumental tunes ever.

Nice nice set: engineers, now air (with THIS one !), TBGT, Over the Rhyne... !

I like their peppier stuff a lot more, like Alpha Beta.

If you like this song, go see "Virgin Suicides", Sophia Coppola's first movie if you haven't. Dreamy, beautiful and slightly disturbing, just like this song.

Air. My first "adult" group. Thanks Dad! You rock!
