another spacey minor ii-V-I (with an extra IV or VI depending on the bar)

I can't quite put my finger on it, but the synth tones at the start of this song give me the feeling of waking up on a beach with the waves washing over you, like the opening scene of Inception. Fits into the general aquatic theme of the album.

The production on this entire album reminds me of the production on A Moon Shaped Pool, particularly tracks like 
Daydreaming. They create this underwater feeling through the use of spaced out synths, heavily reverbed guitar tracks, and airy keys

if i were to give a marshall mcluhan type analysis i'd say something about how the modern situationship is embodied more by modern expressions of heartbreak (reverbed out 2 5 1 songs a la the marias and cigarettes after sex - 
Sienna and 
Nothing's Gonna Hurt You Baby ), the reverb a symptom of modern introspectiveness and the 2-5-1 progression a symptom of our craving for resolution to something comfortable

(there is even an indie heartbreak song titled after the trope of 251 indie heartbreak songs -

on the other hand older music about heartbreak (this song) show comfort with a less linear and more cyclic view of time and relationships. modern situationships are about a fear of commitment and consequences, which comes from a linear view of time, while older generations were more likely to be serial monagamists, which is a consequence of a cyclic view of time. a 2-5-1 progression is built around resolving to the tonic, a blues progression privileges the tonic much less. a blues progression feels like a celebration of the cyclic nonlinear nature of life. it feels like a much healthier way to approach relationships than a 2-5-1 progression
