      @scribus James Blake actually also did a cover of The Sound of Silence that I really like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48ctczjFdQE

          @scribus For some reason (probably the organ) it reminds me of Whiter Shade of Pale. https://youtu.be/Mb3iPP-tHdA

        @northernnarwhal I guess I could've directed that @ you instead, but you know, the hell with conventional behavior.

          @scribus Not the comparison I would've come up with, but I can definitely hear where you're coming from. Both songs have lots of really lengthy notes too that act as pads.

            @northernnarwhal Yeah, my first thought was that it was definitely well-done and "faithful" while being its own thing, but there was definitely something in the overall feel that added WSoP.

              @scribus You know, A Whiter Shade of Pale (despite being released decades prior) always reminds me of this song from The End of Evangelion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZQ_WBiyFDk Which I guess is because both are sort of nostalgic sounding mid-tempo organ ballads

                @northernnarwhal The intro is very similar.

                  @scribus Yeah, both of them have drawn out organs and are give or take the same tempo. They're not in the same key, but they're close (AWSoP is in C major and KST is in Bb Major)

                    @northernnarwhal I never did manage to get the hang of keys like that.

                      @scribus I'm currently taking a course in music theory, plus I have a general background in music, so it's something I've gotten better at. Also I know how to play Komm Susster Todd on piano, it's a lovely song.
