You ever listen to a song and get an extremely detailed image unrelated to it? Last night, I listened to “Kids (Reprise)” by The Midnight. I could see a very specific place. It was either evening, or morning, maybe both at the same time. It smelled both like morning dew and the slow coolness of shade after a long hot day. It was like sitting crosslegged at the top of a sloping grassy field. On the other end, there were trees. Most of the sky was a purple pink of evening, yet the golden yellow sunlight of morning lit across part of the field. Behind “me” was an old farmhouse, deep blue in the shadows. “I” was a specific person. They kept swapping between a mother with her young child in her lap, and that same child as a young adult sitting in the same place.
I dunno, just seemed calming and stuff.
