god I haven't even mentioned how absolutely perfectly trying to feel alive is as the album closer. It ties everything together so well, and it so excellently mirrors look at the sky (being the lyrical opener). It's just such a great album overall and the two really make for some perfect bookends

#porter robinson #nurture #like!!!! the only review I've seen so far (i don't really look at them for media but it was before the release and i was curious) #said that it was great but could've had a better ordering of the tracks but honestly i think it works pretty well #a great pattern of instrumental followed by a few w lyrics then another instrumental and so on #and i assume porter was most concerned w spacing everything out well (which he did!!) #i think the order is fine i don't think anything really. like. clashes? i can't say I'd change it #but anyway. god they work so well together #and ttfa just toes everything up so nicely w/o either being cheesy or just not feeling like a unique song #bc the tracks are all very closely related and he did a fantastic job at making each song feel really special and unique #adding sweet time to the list of absolutely godtier love songs that are powerful enough to melt even my aroace self #(i actually haven't made that playlist yet. i know what I'm doing for the next hour)
