the concept:
So I was being emo and roaming around the internet when I came across this quote:
"How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset."
-George MacDonald
I started pondering this. It hit me deeply and I realized why. It was true. I lie awake at night, staring into the ceiling, wondering why the hell I am here. Where am I going? Is this it? When it ends, it ends, and that's it. Then I remembered when I climbed up a mountain to watch the sunset. Even though it wasn't the most glamorous sunset I've seen, it was beautiful. For that minute that I stared straight at it, I was scared of nothing. Even though there was snow around me, I felt warm. I felt at ease. As I'm thinking this I look up and see my painting that I did a little while ago titled The Last Sunset.
It made me wonder what the world would be like if we all knew tonight was the last sunset? For whatever reason, tonight was it. This was our last chance to hike up to a point, sit down and watch it. Would we realize that some things in life just don't matter? That the things we own, and the way we look don't matter in the end. I think we would. And I think for those two minutes as the sun sets, the world would be perfect. That would be god. That would be heaven on earth.
So my album is going to be called The Last Sunset. I want to capture that perfection. When I listen to my music, the world stops, nothing matters and I feel perfect.
