Interesting place for a Neutral Milk Hotel reference.
wait !! explain? i didn’t pick up on this
The title track on NMH’s album In The Aeroplane Over The Sea ends with the line “can’t believe/how strange it is to be anything at all”
ahahaha sure enough usually im good with lyrics but i guess my brain kind of scrubs past that one
But it’s like… The most defining line of the album and the project… Like, not just the most famous, but the emotional climax. As cringe as it may perhaps be, I’m sure I’m not the only one who still gets chills hearing that line in their head so many years later.

No, that would be “semen stains the mountain tops”.
How strange it is to be anything at all…
I love that. Thank you for sharing.
It’s a Neutral Milk Hotel lyric, actually!
woah! i have long known both this post and this song but never put it together that one was quoting the other!
Oh this is those King of Carrot Flowers people!!! Cool. Thanks for sharing. :)
Yeh! You should look into the Elephant 6 collective if ya like NMH, since they were a part of that scene. A lot of the folks who recorded on In the Aeroplane played and recorded in other bands like the Apples In Stereo, the Olivia Tremor Control, and there were heaps of other bands that played with 'em in Athens.
isn’t it sweet? 🥺🥺 i really hope they are doing well
How strange indeed ❤️
