sometimes i think this is how slowly dying for real looks and sounds like. not hearing lady in red exactly , but grabbing a bunch of memories and slowly degrading to a point that one can't tell if it's still alive or not, like some sort of limbo and then you are gone
The lyrics for Lady in Red implies the existence of other partygoers. This makes the drop in Nobody Here much more jarring, I think. He not only hallucinated the titular lady, but also the supposed rival men of the party. His psyche is completely off kilter to the point of creating potentially losing scenarios in his own head.
I like how the music transitions in such a smooth way. It's almost like the guy realized that no one was hearing his song and now he's lamenting for his loneliness for eternity.
in its own way, and without irony, this might be the most important song during the Hypnagogic pop and vaporwave era with its melodramatic airy synth pads and looped vocals that seamlessly start and begin. when you couple the music with ones memories of the past (especially if you were in a late millineal/born in early 80's late 70s' during when many of the genres samples are taken from) creates an anthem longing for a lost past. Thanks for the upload!
This version of the song feels like reminiscing & smiling about good memories and then snapping back to reality. They're not here anymore. There's nobody here.
The beige corridors and the hallways are all empty, the voice echoes in the long dimness ahead of and around me. I am surrounded on all sides by walls with nothing but stale air between them, I am surrounded on all sides by alone.
