Has taken over Given to Fly as my favorite song. Just the whole feeling that song gives me, I feel as if im in this other world, its pretty nuts. Reminds me of a dark rainy night.

Seriously, I have this song on loop.

    I like SOH, but I don't love it the way a lot of people do. There must be something really special about it that isn't sinking in for me. :|

    I know the feeling you're having though. Good music is like drugs. When you find that song that feels so good, you don't want it to stop.

    When I hear it, it just makes me feel like.. im watching the guy hes talking about, without the guy knowing im there. I dont know.. its odd. But we all know that guy who has no time for himself... weird.

    SOH is my fav on Binaural.
    I "discovered" it on a flight back from San Diego- it was dead quiet and I was listening so intently on Mikes guitar and the unique noises he makes on this song in particular. I love getting to hear it though it is a rarity these days.

    Dude.. thats EXACTLY what it is. It's haunting.. from the beginning to the end. You get this feeling of like.. loneliness, like idk how to explain. Every time he says Sleight of haaaaand.. I get chills. Best song form them in my eyes. Took me some time like you said... but Binaural.. is just fucking awesome.
