I love Starset bc wherever they write a love song 4 times out of 5 it feels more like the narrator is talking to an eldritch space creature, astronomical body or even the concept of the universe itself rather than to a human romantic partner. Also the outros

Went to a history museum today and got jumpscared in the ancient civs exhibit when suddenly music started playing over the loudspeakers and it was the fucking. Seikilos epitaph. While I was still in the Egypt section. Now I have taught classes on this piece, but the Egyptian stuff puts it so out of context that I don't know *why* I know it.
So I'm looking around like I've seen a ghost, having flashbacks to my master's music history test and also lesson planning for my own music courses, before I finally round the corner and hit Greece. And it clicks. Suddenly I whirl to my partner and whisper-yell "it's the fucking Seikilos epitaph!" and scare them and also the nice family looking at the Rosetta stone mockup.
Anyway that was my day.
