Noah Kahan!!!! I am more than a bit obsessed - I'm from Vermont and so his music hits a little harder, but it's amazing even if you don't live here. The lyrics are pretty depressing once you listen hard enough, but they're also beautiful and the music itself is absolute perfection :D
I've been thinking about Icarus a lot lately. Sun-drunk, reckless boy. But I haven't stopped to consider the father much. I read this poem, and I have a feeling it (and its implications and themes) are gonna be stuck in my head all day. You are right. We have enough Icarus poems. We always forget about the grief of his father. The regrets of his father. I am sorry we have left Daedalus waiting for a legacy.
My sister has played a couple songs by him, and OH MY GOD, they were AMAZING! I will definitely listen to more!
Aweee this is so heartwarming with that twinge of sad
congratulations!!
