Don't you love those songs that stop time?
You know, the kind of song that just seems to go on forever, yet doesn't feel like it's gone on forever? I got home today and popped a cool one and as I've sometimes been known to do in recent times, listened to some Joy Division. Dark? Sure. But I've got 'Decades" nestled on this comp I've been listening to a lot lately (yeah, I know I already mentioned that elsewhere) and it's one of those songs that plays outside of time for me. No idea how long it lasts, but looking at the file I see it runs about 6 minutes. Coulda been 20 for all I knew. What a groove it digs out. "Blue Line Swinger" from Yo La Tengo is another one for me, but it runs past the 9 minute mark. Would never guess. I might listen to it 3 or 4 times in a row.
Does that happen for you?
Ooh, ooh, "a light so dim" from Black Heart Procession just started and this one does the same thing. Wouldn't mind a bit if it loped along for 30+
On a somewhat related topic, do you ever get the feeling that you're talking to yourself when you post around here?
