Things which are awesome (part eleven) - Probably not actually what they meant.

Calculation Theme by Metric is a song that consistently makes me happy it exists, and I have no better definition of awesome.

I'm convinced it's about someone in a tragically one sided love affair with mathematics. In her head their relationship is supposed to be all the dance of inspiration and long, intimate nights exploring secrets and universal truths... but instead it's *hard*. At this point mostly she's fighting burn-out and insomnia and she still can't. let. go.

Why must you be so pretty, mathematics! It isn't fair! Um. Yes. It very well could be that metaphor *is* lost on me. But my interpretation is still more fun.

 
(Also, every time I hear it I think of you, [livejournal.com profile] foreverdirt, and that's never a bad thing.)
