The background vocals in the bridge of Grass never cease to amaze me

? those are 2 of their biggest harmony songs. Also Frightened/taste/guys eyes are like the #1 harmony/vocal counterpoint songs on mpp

...

The drop in also frightened at the st. Louis 07 show gets me everytime I swear !
That brothersport is also one of the best versions in me opinion.

VB was talking about switching back and forth between Avey and Panda bits. In Also Frightened they're just singing the same lines. In Winters Love they swap back and forth. I'm aware that they harmonize in these songs just didn't get what he meant about swapping back and forth.

Post **Posted:** Mon May 25, 2015 2:24 pm

oh I was just saying that I like to switch which part I'm singing along with. Like, sometimes I'll sing Panda's part for a few bars then switch to Avey's, regardless of who's singing lead and who's singing backup

UP IN THE DARK OF MORNIIIN'

Post **Posted:** Sun Jun 07, 2015 7:25 pm

5 minutes into I Think I Can, right when the song changes up, "Will I get to move on soon"?

Also, Gotham right when Avey screams "It's not my choice to be there on time" 3 times in a row.

The Avey spiral echo and harmony part at the end of Street Flash

Also: the rest of Street Flash

Post **Posted:** Mon Jun 08, 2015 9:45 pm

Street Flash is so incredible. The entire middle section is some of the finest AnCo to date.

Post **Posted:** Sun Jun 14, 2015 9:46 pm

I love how #1 opens.

I love how one string of descending notes is slightly slower than the other, and the result is two arpeggiators dancing in circles around each other.

Post **Posted:** Mon Jun 15, 2015 9:56 am

And the way the vocals float in. There's nothing quite like a haunting AnCo song

Post **Posted:** Mon Jun 15, 2015 8:29 pm

Dudes, 2021 when Deaks album dropped and changed the modern landscape of popular music. That was badass.

such a good moment

Post **Posted:** Wed Jun 17, 2015 2:21 pm

I'm not sure if this is actually what he says, but in the transition section of Safer, I always hear Avey shouting

STEW
WE MAKE STEW AND
WE MAKE STEW AND
DOO

and it always makes me smile.

i hear that too. curious what he's saying.

I always thought it was jibberish

Post **Posted:** Mon Jun 29, 2015 11:44 pm

The brass (?) swell at the end of every 4th bar in the chorus of My Girls is an integral part of the song

Post **Posted:** Tue Jun 30, 2015 1:03 am

I think that's voices. I never heard it until I watched an old live video where it was much louder. It's so good

Post **Posted:** Tue Jun 30, 2015 1:08 am

Wait you're heading something else... Woooooaah

Post **Posted:** Tue Jun 30, 2015 1:55 am

yeah there's vocals too but I swear it sounds like trumpets or something. could be a sample?

Post **Posted:** Tue Jun 30, 2015 4:37 am

Idk that's a real subtle one, I'll have to listen again a few times

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 02, 2015 1:57 pm

"rockets" and then the chord at the beginning of oliver twist. shivers every time

Post **Posted:** Thu Jul 02, 2015 8:19 pm

The way Noah changes his oOooooh's in The Big Sur recording of Bleed

Gives me the chills

Listening to Turn Into Something really loudly in bed. Splitting headache.just heard the little piano line for the first time. Cute

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 06, 2015 1:30 am

Doctess' piano playing really adds a lot to Feels

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 06, 2015 2:39 am

When the piano comes in on daily routine

WATER CURSES.

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 13, 2015 1:47 am

When you wake up from your snoozin'
Gonna tell you how to do it my way
Gonna tell you what I'm doin'
Raising knife up in my drum

Everybody talks bubbling
And I got no way to stop it
It's a song about the days you spend
Without me at our home

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 13, 2015 3:19 am

Hearing A Manatee Dance and Penguin Penguin played back to back.
Hearing In The Flowers for the first time. ( Not really a moment from their songs but a personal AC moment. )
"You wanna hear a secret? I know one..." SCREECH
Chorus of Cuckoo Cuckoo ( reminds me of Penguin Penguin )
"POOOOOOOOOOOL" in Banshee Beat
The beginning of Graze
Hearing WWIW? S for the first time
"Ah ah ah ahh" in Mouth Wooded Her
The elusive in Houston part of Bat You'll Fly
The transition from Queen in My Pictures to Doggy, along with hearing that back to back.
The noises in the background of the guitar strumming in Visiting Friends

I love in unsolved mysteries in the "when you look..." parts, the voice going "uh uh uh uh uh" going back and forth between the left and right speakers

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 13, 2015 4:25 am

favorite moment off the top of my head : either the light saber sounds at the end of unsolved. or possibly the beginning of danse manatee

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 13, 2015 5:19 am

The vocals in tantrum barb and the way they gradually get conquered by those growling synths in the background. That song feels way too short.

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 13, 2015 11:03 am

"what you need's a.... happy farm... with happy goats and sheeeep"

sometimes when I am sad at work I sing this and go find the sheep and the goats I like and pet them and it always makes me feel better
