And when it all ends you're so...exhausted. As if it consumed you. Brilliant.
I get the feeling you like this Slowdive song quite a bit, UB! It does have a great atmosphere, matching the video very well.

Your feeling of clarify you get from the song sounds like what I hear meditators (and drug-users!) get from meditation and drugs, respectively: a sense of peace and unity with everything. Isn't it fun how music can elicit different mental states? This song reminds me of your music a little, by the way, because of the wave-like repetition and emotion.
