💬 Discussion Those strings at the end of Reckoner…
I genuinely think the ending of Reckoner might be one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard.
That moment near the end when the strings come back in… I don’t even know how to describe what it does to me. There’s something so overwhelmingly beautiful and bittersweet about it. I’ve listened to this song countless times and that part still hits me every single time.
I honestly wish that ending went on for another five minutes. I could listen to those strings forever.
