I'm just thinking of those apes that lives in a hot tub

I came back here to proudly say I overcame depression and panic disorder, and at my darkest times this song made me feel understood and added a little sweetness to the sad

The song played on the elevator to your afterlife.

I came here to tell you that I haven't yet beaten depression. But I learned how to live with it. There's so much more to life than our narrow field of view allows us to see. I'm going to therapy once every week. I got a job happily working as a full-time sound designer for a big video game. I don't see myself as a worthless parasite anymore. I'm okay with my position in society and in the world.
There are so many things I need to overcome, but I'm confident that I have the tools to deal with those.
This song kept me company in the deepest, darkest places of my mind.

This song makes me think of my dad. We are both very quiet people. Growing up, I remember him playing songs by Stars of the Lid to help ease me to sleep as a weird, insomnia-ridden kid. A week or so after I discovered this song (and subsequently became obsessed with it,) I walked past his room in which he was programming to hear those familiar chords creeping from underneath the door, as he was listening to it out loud. I remember going inside and talking to him about the song, how I had just listened to it recently, and how wonderful it is.
It's moments like those that I owe to Richard's music. I love my dad

This music makes me think about life. I have cystic fibrosis. My lungs are okay at the moment but my liver is slowly giving up. Im curious and a bit frightened about the future of my life. Yet im not scared to die. Heck i almost died in February of blood loss because of my destroyed liver. (Vomiting blood is not a very nice feeling)
No one really asked me how i feel mentally after this whole situation. I just kept going without looking back. No time to show weakness. I dont want to hurt or stress my family more with the whole stuff that took part.
I am more scared of facing life, having to worry about love, money, friends, wealth. How much do i have to suffer in this life until its over? I will only give up on life, if my body does.
Its those thoughts that keep my up at night...

I had a copy of this song in the late 90s on my computer. I was a big fan of Aphex’s ambient works ii album, and found out the vinyl version had more songs. I went searching for a copy of the song and upon listening to it I couldn’t believe that this gem had been left off the CD release. It was by far the best song on the album, and I love the rest of the album already.
For a long time, this song was my own special thing. Something perhaps only a few people knew about.
But it seems this song has endured the test of time, and it’s audience has expanded greatly over the years.
This song has been in my life for over 25 years … and I still come back to it again and again like a cold comfort.
Good music will always find the listener eventually. I’m glad the whole world can hear my slice of heaven now.

I've always been fascinated by loneliness, by the feeling of my own insignificance in the scheme of the universe, but not in a bad way, I love feeling confronted by the sublime and being overcome by emotion to the point of tears. My fondest memories all revolve around this idea: looking out the window of a bus in the middle of the highway at night, looking up through the tree tops at the moon in the middle of a forest, the cold of an empty street just before sunrise. I love feeling melancholic and nostalgic, somehow I feel happier when I'm a little sad. And this music encapsulates that feeling to such a degree that its hard to believe it was not made for me. I used to feel alone, for as many people as I would tell about this feelings I couldn't find anyone that understood, let alone share this ideas. But being here, reading your comments, I know that all human experience is shared, that I'm not the only one, and that even if we don't know each other, when I listen to this, when I feel what I feel, there's someone out there that resonates with me and that I'm not alone, the sublime engulfs us both.

I can listen to this for free any time I want. This is why I love YouTube. 20 years ago, this was a dream for everybody. We gotta appreciate what we have. It is difficult though.

So many emotions in one song. Loss, anger, sadness, contempt, happiness, joy, euphoria, melancholy. God I love this track.

I know that 99% of us in this comment section are thinking about life right now and what the next steps are. If it makes you feel any better, we’ve all just figured out how to improve as human beings.

It's interesting to me how the nature of this music opens people up, and I think that's a very beautiful thing.

My grandma will pass away from kidney disease in a few hours. I'm currently at her bedside, playing this song for her. She seems so much more comfortable now.
It's easy to forget, but being with a dying person is a reminder that life is a special gift. And a short one at that. Let's all do our best to enjoy it while we're still here.
We're all in this together <3

this is no song...this a feeling

I feel a sense of kinship with everyone here in the comments. Our paths intersect as we listen to this masterpiece, even though we may be strangers. It makes me question the notion of what it even means to be a stranger. In the words of a dear friend of mine, 'I hope you're well, and you know that I love you.'

I ended a relationship a few weeks ago, it was mutual and sweet. There was so much love, but we just weren't compatible together.
Since then, all the loneliness I've been avoiding through this relationship became impossible and foolish to ignore. All my life, I've been running away from my sadness and loneliness, and myself. I felt wrong for the way I am, for enjoying long solo walks, stopping somewhere just to watch the scenes unfold... I feel like life itself speaks to me in these quiet moments, revealing a truth that's intangible but all encompassing, like a thick blanket. In deep solitude, I feel as if the world has inverted, and I am physically resting in my internal universe.
And yet, I have this deep desire to share this unspeakable feeling. I admit, I have no idea how to connect with people, but I really want to learn. I have this huge fear that I'll just be met with confusion, or judgement, if I share this experience... but, I think the risk is worth it. I think it'll be worth it.

This will always take me back to the early days of my relationship. I turned this on while giving my boyfriend a back massage and he fell asleep in my bed. He has very bad insomnia and does not get a healthy amount of sleep most nights so this was special. It was such an ethereal moment when I laid down next to him with this song playing and admired how gorgeous he is. It was the first time I got to see his resting face and it brought tears to my eyes, such a beautiful memory. ❤

After years of infertility, I delivered my first child via c-section on Friday with this playing in the delivery room. It was perfect, he is perfect, I am filled with gratitude and love.
