Bluebelle Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I remember when the track list first leaked everyone was like "this has to be fake, they're in alphabetical order!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violetmav Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 A bit off topic, but I remember hearing Daydreaming when it was released on like 5/6 last year and thinking that the slow tape at the start was the end of the previous song leaking into it...Think how surprising it was to hear Burn The Witch as the song leading into it.

skylark Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 i believe title suggests getting dealt a bad hand of terot cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violetmav Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Actually, I've always thought it referred to the deck of the spaceship being dark... Or the spaceship "blocking out the sky," so the deck of the house is dark... Just my take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrumch Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 it's good but I don't think I like it as much as everyone else seems to. I think present tense and the numbers are better I love those two also. But DD has just grown on me more than any other song on the album. RH songs always seem to do that to me.

Scrumch Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 In terms of the songs on the album, it is one of the top songs for me. I always find myself going back for seconds when it ends...It's like, "Nooo!!! It can't be over already! I need to play that again!" I love the music and that it seems to be almost a continuation of 'Alien' from OKC. The first time I heard it was on the radio when Sirius XMU played all of AMSP when it was released on Mother's Day last year. The station had the song listed as "Desks Dark," but I loved it. When I got the album and saw the actual title, I laughed and loved it even more. To me, it is a highlight on a great album. Maybe I love it so much bc SHA is my fav OKC track....hmmm...

violetmav Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 It would be deck's...unless they are referencing multiple houses? Hmmm... Someone get Thom on the line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylark Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 i think this is relaxed album for a few reasons alphabetical tracklist, nonexistent concept(more relaxed than httt,) and most importantly and most relevant, bad grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylark Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 and thom says u run for the back so the deck would be in the back right, decks are usually in back? but i highly doubt they named a song after the shade of a patio i hope they ddnt anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrumch Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Maybe they are anti-grammar? :lol: reminds me of the whole hyphen in the title of the album debate. I think most people settled on the idea that the hyphen was intentionally omitted to mean a pool shaped by the moon, no a pool shaped like the moon.

But I think the whole song is metaphorical, maybe about a relationship (rachel?) or about something bigger like government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrumch Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I just read a reddit thread about this song and many thought it was a direct reference to Hitchhiker's Guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funnyHAHA Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 i think this is relaxed album for a few reasons alphabetical tracklist, nonexistent concept(more relaxed than httt,) and most importantly and most relevant, bad grammar it's definitely too relaxed for me. it's a very "mature" album but lacks a little edge. DD is a good song. Not great in my opinion. I find it anticlimactic. It's a cool little jam. But, like most of the album, too mellow and heavy in tone. I mean, KID A is fucking heavy and dark.......but it has sass, it has edge, it's sexy at times. Most of AMSP songs kind of just float in and float out. The two biggest, sprawling songs on the album are the first two songs on the album. They reach heights that the rest of the album never attains.

penguinhead Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 I always thought the title was originally "Dark Decks" but Thom wanted Daydreaming to be the second track after they alphabetized everything, so they just switched the words to make it work.

violetmav Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I like this explanation the best. Even if it isn't true, it makes the most sense... It even settles the grammar debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
