Great intro to a song that drips with melancholy. Somehow the idea of you writing this in a laundromat gives it extra pathos! The lyrics are very well done - filled with memorable lines ("let me pull you close and share the things i dream about/suicide and puppy dogs and pretty girls" - killer line, man) and culminating in the chorus which is almost humorous in tis juxtaposition of the contradictory ideas. A spark of inspiration, and a testament to the complexity and risk of relationships. Nicely done. Peace. |

Dacapo! Beautiful organ intro.. And the rest of the song is so sad and beautiful. I like the Beats that appear in the ending of the song. The song is very long, and the tempo is slow, and I loved every second of it. You have managed to keep the song going and growing all the way to the end, which can be hard when the song is long! Your voice is beautiful, and you sing in a very passionate way, the way you sing it suits the song perfect! Thank you very much for this lovely tune! |

too true sometimes ya gotta peel away the mask. it happens, But lucky for me I'm not a gloomy guy. Cool choice of synths and beats, production is great as well. During work this afternoon, I checked MJ and played this for my art department. Didn't tell them who or what. After the song was over... the guys were saying wow, that is great, who is that? See you don't need my word for it. |

great song I like this song Michael. You did a great job here conveying the meaning of the song and it is very somber indeed. If there is any hope at all, I guess it would be that it is good that your friend is breaking up before marriage and not after. Either way he sounds miserable. Back to you....sorry about that. You know I like your voice so much. You always do a great job. Thanks for sharing this. |

Low fi gem This reminds me of your earlier work, when i first got into you, the great throwaway melancholic vocal. The tempo and feel are fantastic - totally suits my insomnia. steve |

You Can Say It's Right You just amaze me Michael - how quickly you can put together a really great song. If I even could write music like this (not to mention sing), I'm sure it'd take me weeks (if ever) to come out the other end with a production of this quality. This is a total keeper - guess you should go hang out at the laundromat some more! Thanks |

Bitter sweetness, abounds... The first few notes and then, all the rest settled me right into the dumps but w/ a sense of palitable, sweetness. Damn! you're good! I like your synth and electronic drum work on this Michael! And of course, your voice does this piece quite the serving of justice. Beautiful writing. And I'm not just sayn' that, either! This is truly an amazing work of beauty and pain. And GOD, have I been here too many times but, this is the best that it's tasted in a long, long time. Thanks, Michael! Dion |

Casio-core at its' finest. Love the slow deliberate pace and the sonic field is full of cool modulations. Excellent lyrics and vox. The wobbly low synth is perfect in the chorus - very Eno/Bowie. |

Great song lots of feeling and a cool DIY feel. I've heard you have a punk past. Could come in handy soon. |

Michael .... I always look forward to your posts because I know I am gonna enjoy what I am about to hear . and this is no exception .... wonderful - you conveyed just the right amount of melancholy and (could I hear sighing) ??? I found myself sighing while listening ... p.s. my son used to dump his milk in my car ... different kind of laundromat for that one. |

Michael, I think this may be my favorite of yours! For one, it's just my style. I love the joining of contrasting sounds: the astronaut breathing, somber vocals (oh they're fantastic!), and music box keys (oh those descending scales!). Gorgeous. Consider it downloaded and into my i pod. |

I can almost hear .. .. the dryer spinning in the background. In the Blur mould - minutae of life in a meaningfully plodding beat. Like the back story - very interesting (although, not uplifting) post Michael. Neil |
I really like the slow deliberate intro. great stuff.
