Sometimes you stumble upon the most beautiful things, I was very lucky to find this.

Thank you very much for sharing this piece.

joe scott

Yes, the blessed happenstances of life! I happened upon this mesmerizing gem while listening to my new fave radio station ("Unpredictable" is their slogan, and it is accurate!), 91.9 WITT, which I discovered bc of a bumper sticker on my neighbor's car, haha! FINALLY began to listen to it while driving to my job at fedex, and this and other gems have since graced my ears!

Ahhh, I recall a drunken night with a friend of mine. It ended in me falling asleep listening to this song on repeat. Was still playing the next morning. Beautiful piece.

Me and my grandfather used it listen to this on a record player on big speakers around a Roaring fire how I miss the days he passed away a few months ago 2020 is not the best of years now I sit here alone at 2 in the morning Listening to this and reminiscing of old times by myself with him but yet I still find peace within the song rest in peace pup I hope your out there ... somewhere watching 🖤🖤

9y↑18

this is insane, 3 months ago i had a melody similar to this stuck in my head and i decided to compose it. Id never heard this song until yesterday but the song i finished 2 months ago is so eerily similar to this it shocks me. its a crazy coincidence

A very good friend of mine told me a story about how he woke up with a pretty melody in his head, like a violin waltz. He sat at his keyboard to compose it. After an hour or so he detected a something familiar in it; turns out he had just composed part of 'Barbie Girl' by Aqua.

J B

+Jon Harvey *It's not really a melody. It's first a D major 7 arpeggio, then a E m dim progression, played slowly, and then it goes backwards with a few extra notes.

So I think it took a tragedy for me to finally understand what the title meant. "time feelers" as in people who are very aware of their own mortality, of the passage of time and how people around them grow up.

How ironic that today, on my mother's birthday, was the first time I ever heard this beautiful song. She passed in 2007.

Juan David Payán Fernández

How people comes and goes with it.

Alexandra

For me it's different. I think of Ed Harris in the hours saying to Meryl Streep who is trying to talk him off the ledge, "But, I still have to face the hours. And, the hours after that." And I always see Robin Williams when listening to this song.

Martin Grahan

Time feelers means melancholy. Every past second/day/year is unique and will never be back or repeated.

This very piece of music shows just how fragile time can be and really amerces you into the full grace and serenity that time can have. All while building upon a simple theme never losing tempo but creating polyphony to show the importance and immensity of time and the idea of time its self, It ends so abruptly mimicking just how fast the mysterious perception of time we have can vanish in an instant. Great piece of music will always enjoy coming back to reminisce of the times in my life when i first came across this. Thank you

Stunning track. I must be a time feeler, because I sure do feel it. Sometimes you sit back and think about all the times you've fucked up, and how you wish you could hit undo. But we can't. There is no "undo" button on life.

The man waited for his love. He waited many years, patiently. Year after year his love did not come. Every year, however the hope grew inside of him like a seed grows to a sprout. The day came his true love came, when the flower of hope had grown. But he was a weary old man and they had a happy ending a kiss to mark the end.

Joaquim Verde

02.30. Though its mostly major chords, its rushing in my soul like a blues weeping song. Thank you Eluvium

Ryan Collis ♪

eftycho It did a 360 from so much major and became minor. Same things happen with tonic minor and dominant minors, vice versa.

As we left the hospital after my son was born, we pulled out of the parking garage, the sunset was pink and orange over downtown Seattle, and this song played as I sat next to my new baby in the car seat, tears streaming down my face, heading to our new life together.

I felt time in a different way then you did. I waited for a sign, a phone call, a text, a message of any kind from you. Some type of indication that you still wondered about me, that you still cared for me. However, you grew with the time apart. You grew away from our old love and found a new love. As I waited in terrible patience, you found yourself another to call yours. And as I sit here waiting for time to heal my broken heart, you lay- far away from me- building your new found love.. It's funny how time effects us all in different ways.

Cece

maybe we feel time all the same but you just didn't know that some persons might feel what you do

Your words took me right to point in my life years ago. I waited. I knew. I prayed. I desired. I cried. I held on to the belief that she would return. I held the on to the belief I was more important to her than him. My hope clashed with her reality. I think of her and wonder if she ever thinks of me.

I think it's the 'Twin Peaks'-like vibe that this song has, which just instantly elevates it to one of the most beautiful and haunting instrumental pieces i've ever heard. I've had it on loop for about 45 mins so far tonight and it feels like being in a film :)

@2:30 It evokes a sudden realization of intensity and momentousness, like feeling tiny clocks ticking away in the tears that have been welling in your eyes as you see the most beautiful thing in the world for the first -and the last- time. The moment, in its beautiful, unmatched complexity and painful ecstasy reveals its true nature to your calmed mind. Like the whisper of an angel: "please...stay safe".

This album is ideally heard as the soundtrack to a beach walk replete with pelicans gliding in forms of eight, darting terns, swelling stranded jellyfish, surfers, dolphins, and families with young children, awkward teens, shells, broken shells, waves, clouds. A perfect choreography. If I'm there, I'm overwhelmed - sometimes paralyzed in oneness - but, certainly, appearing to be standing & staring stupidly in the sand. If I am not, it takes me there. This track is, for me, the microcosm.

Nathan Potter

Who are you? This is a beautifully written comment and I’d like to hear more of what you have to say on life. Do you write poetry or books?

If God were to give voice to compassion and comfort, I would imagine it would sound something like this. And it wouldn't be legit without that undertone of wistful sadness.
