Ok, so ... wow. This is the first time Parabol has ever made me cry and the first time it has ever felt like a conclusion. This is so haunting. It just pulls you open. Truly incredible folks.
Recently, fragments of this song was tickling the edges of my mind. When I tried to remember it clearer, it would slip out my mental grip like fine sand between my fingers. I just remembered that it was a string arrangement and the moped with the brown filter on the thumbnail. So I searched for "moped thumbnail string arrangement" and a song from the same album was like the 8th result. Wasn't the exact song, but I found the thumbnail and band. Had to dig pretty far in the video history, but I found this song again! Based on the time stamps from other comments, this was made 10 years ago. Crazy how time flies! I too, also heard this song for the first time in that Target ad from ages ago.
