anyone just sink into the sounds of music so much that you forget how english/your language sounds like, and you just hear some alien language in the song? (self.autism)

Sometimes there's songs with next to no singing and I get this feeling of belonging and sadness, but I love those songs.

This is exactly what I search for in music. It's this beautiful, lonely, nostalgic place where I can almost reach out and touch a fragile moment I've never experienced but somehow always needed. It ever so slightly fills that empty feeling that I've already lost everything I love and I'll never get it back. It's like a taste of what my life could have been.

Holy shit I used to experience this too but I've lost it since an extended (ongoing) burnout. I hope to feel this again one day.

A little playlist of one of my favorite artists. No vocals. These songs are ones that ive listened to on repeat for literally weeks at a time

I am love guitar so it may not be for everyone.

Joe Satriani:

Tears in the Rain

Always with me, Always with you

Sleep Walk

I hope you enjoy them, thank you for listening
