TWRP - Starlight Brigade (feat. Dan Avidan) [Officia...

I've listened to this song like a thousand times but the animation style for the video haunts me

It reminds me of like

I'm a kid

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:43 AM

And I'm either home during a weekday because I'm sick, or I'm up way past my bed time

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:43 AM

And I'm watching TV

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:43 AM

And flipping channels idly

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:43 AM

And then I stop on some channel I've never watched anything on before because it has a cartoon on it

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

(Because when I was a kid, I would watch ANYTHING that was a cartoon and didn't give a shit about anything live action)

But I'd watch a cartoon on this channel and not really understand what I was watching and then it would end

And then, 30 years later

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:45 AM

I'd discover it again

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:45 AM

After decades of being convinced I'd imagined it

That's the energy about this video

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:46 AM

I just feel like I saw SOMETHING as a child

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:47 AM

that had this kind of aesthetic

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:47 AM

And never saw it again

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:47 AM

But it still lurks in the back of my mind

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:47 AM

Waiting to ambush me

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:48 AM

Someday someone is gonna be like "Hey check out this gorgeous piece of animation from 1988"

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:48 AM

And I'm going to LOSE MY FUCKING MIND

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 4:49 AM

Also: This song fucking SLAPS and this video is GORGEOUS

It's so good

TemporalWolf

@temporal_wolf

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 5:01 AM

And yeah I can't think of how to describe it any better than that

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 5:05 AM

I'm glad that it isn't just me who felt like this

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Sat, Feb 20, 2021 5:05 AM

This is apparently a more universal experience than I thought

for me, i feel more in the vein of "this is one of those weird one-off anime things some rando from a dusty forum with like 30 members recced to you and you watched it as a kid and didn't understand a lick of it but goddamn it was cool" - sort of in a similar boat
