My absolute favourite moment in Devin's music is the bridge in "Seventh Wave", the transition between "Watch the Seventh Wave" and "On my way pass it on...." I have to be careful if I'm listening to this song when walking along cos that bit makes my legs turn to spaghetti, and I don't get the shivers as much as convulse! There's so many transcendental moments in Devy's music, where the melody, instruments, production and context all come together, but this one is the greatest for me (although "My day's gone and my year's gone and I don't know when I'm coming home" comes close, as do many other moments).
Ocean Machine is a staggering work of genius. I don't say that lightly either. I have over a 1000 Cds in all genres, a degree in classical music, and I've heard some epic, epic stuff (Ravel's Daphnis and Chloe, Mahler's Symphonies etc) but Devin just takes the cake.
So anyone else think the "On my way pass it on bit" has a magical, myserious and transcendental quality?
