Today was quite productive, and finally sunny enough to give my horse a much needed bath. Now that the day's activities have settled, and night has landed, it's time to tackle day 3 of this song challenge.
Day 03 - A song that makes you happyThis often changes, but this week, Flying Whales by the French 'progressive death metal' band, Gojira, seems to be doing the trick.
This 7+ minute track is from the 2005 album, From Mars to Sirius.
This song begins with a 2 and a half minute intro of the chill flavour, before it kicks in with a catchy groove, lyrics not beginning until 3:05.
The lyrics speak of an almost desperate plight to find the whales within a flood of chaotic waters. The first verse is intriguing:
Waters of chaos
Have invaded all space
The flood on earth again
I have to find the whales
That once did guide us
To dry lands of life
I won't despair
I'll break this dark all around
The fairly unique subject matter combined with the song's progressive nature seems to be what prompts me to play it on repeat. An enjoyable listen, no doubt.
Huomenna tavataan!
