When I learned Eldest Daughter on piano I could not articulate why playing the bridge hit me so much, but the way the music FELT reduced me to tears. I don't know enough music theory to know why so I didn't even try to explain, but this woman does... and did.show more

woah. that's why the bridge makes you feel like tension is released and now you can relax 🥲

Thanks for sharing. My friend was talking about it and how beautiful it is to play. I play zero instruments but now I get it.

Oh wow, this is a stunning take

Truly the best bridge on the album. I always have to replay it at least twice it’s so good. 🎶🎶

🎶Beautiful beautiful explanation 🎵 That’s really neat if you to dissect for us! Thank you!!

Why am I sobbing, yes I’m an eldest daughter. Now a mother of 4 , but a carer for my adult eldest daughter (disabled) and disabled husband, I’m mid 50s even though all kids adults now, I will never get out of the role till I die, there’s always someone to care for but never me.

remember when i played the bridge to nugget and baby cried?

this is breathtaking. i almost cried. explains exactly how this music makes me feel. oh my goodness.

Ugh crying in tears over how thoughtful Eldest Daughter is. This explanation is so powerful because what do you mean she planned it like that and we can all feel it with her when heard

I’m not crying, you’re crying! 😭

Also that note that “stays at home” also sounds like the first note in Dear Reader

@LaurenLipman

Brilliant.

@SwitchedOnPop listen to this and try not to cry

👍👍👍Excellent 👌

OR… OR… OR… Maybe it’s all just coincidence! Just Maybe… or something
