Eww, feelings![edit]
They Might Be Giants are my therapy, they comfort me and keep me safe. I cannot thank them enough for how much they have helped me & positively impacted every single aspect of my life.
I especially cling to Linnell & his work. His ability to put such strange, complex sentiments into extremely poetic words that I could never describe, all in an incredibly playful & charming manner that scratches my brain in all the right ways is so truly cathartic. I thank him & his beautiful art for always being there for me and making sure that my heart & soul are beaming and filled with whimsy.
And as you can most certainly tell, my favorite TMBG song is Upside Down Frown. The song resonates with me so much and is extremely special & personal to me! I absolutely adore the soft, relaxing melody that it comprises of, along with Linnell’s very very sweet, lullaby-like voice. He sounds so gentle and sympathetic. Upside Down Frown as a whole has this certain sweetness and tenderness that just warms my heart and hugs my autistic brain, mostly on account of how much I personally connect with the feeling that the song is delineating and its incredibly witty eloquence while doing so. But overall, it’s a very lovely song that makes me feel so many different emotions..and it never fails to make me bawl my eyes out.
I just want to thank Linnell & his amazing capability to write exactly how I feel and think. That is one of the (many) reasons why I’m so attached to him :-)
Some comfort songs that feel like a warm hug & make me very happy:[edit]
That’s all for now. Peace.
