96. Methyl Ethel - “Idée Fixe“

This song is a full dose of soulful and somber poetry. It’s like a slow motion gulp of cough syrup taken straight to the soul, completely smothering and suffusing the emotions with its allure. It reaches out like an unknown power from another dimension, speaking a language that you almost understand, but can’t seem to place. You want to dive into it, but at the same time you’re scared. It seems so welcoming, but there’s something else hidden within it, something that makes you second guess yourself, a darkness lying in wait beneath the beauty. In your uncertainty you stand on the edge transfixed, arms outstretched, eyes closed, body completely motionless, as you wait for it to rise up and swallow you whole.
