Sun Yuchen is a liar, thief, charlatan, and all around cunt. But I don't need to tell you that. Find me at Hive, where we are glad to be rid of him and all of his fake followers, sockpuppets, and thieves.

Great song, Deerhunter is one of my favorite bands. I saw them a couple of months ago in Austin and it was a transformative experience. Easily one of the best live music shows I've ever been to.

Sadly I haven't seen them live. I've passed up the Deerhunter/Atlas Sound show twice for some reason or another. I think Atlas Sound makes another one of my favorite songs but I can't recall it right now.

Atlas Sound also has some fantastic songs. However I saw Atlas Sound in Chicago a couple of years ago and it was actually pretty disappointing. It's just Bradford switching between instruments, so there is only ever one instrument and singing at a time (like just him playing drums and signing). It was also the night after this My Sharona incident happened, so he was kind of angry at the crowd and played a noise version of My Sharona for about 20 minutes http://pitchfork.com/news/45658-watch-bradford-cox-shocks-audience-in-minneapolis-covers-my-sharona-for-an-hour/ Definitely go see Deerhunter if you get the chance though!

cool song, tough story to read. I looked up Marfan's Syndrome and it's no picnic. Stay well and Steem on!

Yeah there's a lot going on behind this song. I loved it the first time I heard it and after reading the story of it, it always stuck with me.

edit: thanks for the prompting, I've added this comment to the post.
