🏽At the precipice of losing it all
All that is woven and torn
How must one feel for anyone
When they feel nothing at all

🌤If I’m feeling hopeful about my own death or grieving someone I love, I imagine some conception of heaven where we are all just floating blobs of contentment. Nothing to do but exist here and be happy. Kind of like how Buffy the Vampire Slayer describes heaven.
I took a philosophy of religion class that dealt with different conceptions of Heaven and many philosophers still think we would have to “help” people from beyond the grave somehow. Not really my ideal afterlife.
If I’m talking about someone I hate dying I picture this wild torturous multi-level hell scape.
But on an average day I think we just stop existing. There’s nothing more to it.

⭐the first time i heard this song i was in my 1st period art class junior year of high school. i remember having to step out of class to cry. so insanely well written and beautifully performed and it feels so personal but universal. the song is meant to (in the narrative of the album) represent ethel’s reflection of her life from heaven and the feeling is so well translated. if you haven’t listened to preachers daughter Please God do it.

The LP that got me into ambient to begin with. Music for Airports is as much a sound installation as a piece of musical performance. In fact, Eno conceived of the album as being looped inside of actual airport terminals. Its inspiration supposedly came from the Köln Airport, which he had flown in and out of numerous times throughout the ’70s. He didn’t like its atmosphere, and came up with something soothing to counteract the tension and anxiety of international travel. Later it became an installation at LaGuardia Airport in New York, and has been performed by chamber ensembles in airports (including San Diego’s Lindbergh Field), though the music doesn’t need to be heard in that specific context to be appreciated or enjoyed. ✈️
