I only subscribe to TED to monitor their agenda of ushering in the Antichrist kingdom.. today’s losers: “Lucius” – as in Lucifer – with a couple stupid depressing songs. Thanks for the daily dose of garbage TED.
Btw – Ted Turner himself supports the idea of depopulating earth to 500 million people. You are all cheerleaders for your own enslavement

The combination of their two voices together becomes something so much greater than the sum of its parts. I have really loved Lucius since I heard them a few years back.

We are missing a lot of respondents (around 200 out of 600) and that is for a thesis.

The voice and lyrics are good but the piano at the beginning was rather morbid and reminded me of a very sad church session 😇

Horrible drum machine: no swing, no soul, no human rhythm – what trash.
Roenie's Gaming Empire
August 18, 2020 at 3:17 pm
Yup. Unbearable. How can you call yourself a pro musician and use something with trash MIDI sound quality like that? Should record their own backing track. But the stray cat singing style, stupid haircuts and 100% gay vibes (TED again…) already killed it to be honest. When I skipped to where that drum machine started I went: NOPE that’s enough thank you.

August 17, 2020 at 1:48 pm
Uhmm the lyrics…well …? But confused what kind of message they are putting out there during times we are having, not a big fan. They need to finish what it is they are wanting to exspress. Finish the song.
