A Moon Shaped Pool

I remember the first time I heard Kid A. I wasn't ready for it. It topped the Rolling Stone list, so I bought it and at my cabin laid in my bed and sent it through my headphones. I didn't get it, it wasn't abrasive, but it was just 'off'. It wasn't on, it didn't connect, it was something spectacular but I didn't see that then and it didn't make a good connection. I suppose it still doesn't. But as a whole, complete product, it is spectacular, and it takes me back to that time. And so I love it, and there are few pieces of music so real to me, so attached to memory. It was set deep in me, and so it holds this reality that few other musical pieces do.
