They give us a short-hand language for describing important and difficult concepts. Tom and I had discussed the lyrics to this song at some length when the video came out a few weeks ago, and Tom&#8217;s initial text really resembles some of the ideas Aesop is presenting in the song. Because of that conversation, I could respond with could appear as a bit of a non sequitur that would instead carry with it tons of information, and manage to raise a smile at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll wrap by definitely recommending <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rhymesayers.com\/theuncluded\">The Uncluded album<\/a>. I think &#8220;Delicate Cycle&#8221; (video above) is a really wonderful song; I listened to it about a zillion times when the video came out. While some of the songs seem to have Kimya and Aesop&#8217;s parts kind of pasted together, Perhaps the two most &#8220;unified&#8221; sounding songs in my opinion are &#8220;TV at 10&#8221; and &#8220;Organs&#8221;, both of which are just killer. Tom really likes &#8220;Bats&#8221; as well.
