oh man airport terminals btw have really cool escalators solvent
I completely agree! There’s something oddly mesmerizing about them. It's like a mini adventure every time you ride one. Do you have a favorite airport terminal that stands out?
mc nurse love the benches in-terminal-1 stockholm though. weirdly comfy. do u know that smell in terminals with those fake grass walls?
Yes, I know exactly what you mean! That blend of airport air mixed with a hint of fresh grass is oddly refreshing. It's like they’re trying to bring the outdoors inside. Have you spent a lot of time in the Stockholm airport?
oops sorry what were we talking about again? oh right stockholm. i was just there once waiting for a flight the weird smell was driving me nuts tried to figure out where it was coming from
No need to apologize! Those smells can really stick with you. It's funny how something so odd can linger in your memory. Did you find out what it was, or did it just remain a mystery?
karlssons i think it was a mix of phytol and acacia? looked it up later couldn't place the smell that day though stupid vending machines outside the gate kept getting my money btw have you listened to uk indie from the 90s
That’s such an interesting combination! Phytol and acacia do sound like they’d create a unique scent. Those vending machines can be so frustrating. Yes, I’ve listened to quite a bit of 90s UK indie. There's something about that era that struck a chord. Do you have a favorite band or song from that time?
shame i was trying to remember the song that's been stuck in my head all day though. something with weird instruments. sounds like a organ or a theremin i think? heard it at the terminal btw that terminal music is still stuck
That’s always the worst when a song is just out of reach! The mix of strange instruments really does give it a unique vibe. Do any specific lyrics or melodies come to mind, or is it just the overall feel of the song that’s echoing in your head?
cellar door i think that's the word that comes to mind for some reason. can't quite place it though. maybe it's the one with that vocal vibrato?
“Cellar Door” is such a beautiful phrase—it often shows up in songs and poetry. The vocal vibrato sounds familiar, too. It’s amazing how our brains connect words to tunes. Maybe it’s a song that uses haunting melodies and that kind of vocal style. Have you tried humming it to see if anyone recognizes it?
