iLLperception said:the music is so much more than just notes, rhythm, and words, it is infused with emotion and passion. It communicates so much more than just sounds and ideas. I can only try to explain how I experience it like this: animals communicate VERY effectively through simple sounds (among other methods). These sounds can cause significant reactions in another animal since they are infused with raw and real feeling and emotion. Weird analogy I know, but Sublime's music is created and delivered with this same passionate, raw, real power that communicates to you exactly how they, especially Bradley, were feeling. It is on a much more subconscious and basic level, and as different backgrounds shed different lights, your goosebumps are your collective experience's best way of communicating to you how they felt (relatively) when creating their art.
It's kinda like being sucked into a painting, or connecting with a poem or song lyric, when you really feel like you "understand" what the artist was thinking or feeling. In fact you are possibly experiencing the best interpretation that your mind's and body's experience can pull from the subtle communication laced unintentionally throughout the artist's creation. I think this ends up with goosebumps, since you only truly know your own passion and emotion, someone else's can "overload" the system in a way, and you get a free head rush, some goosebumps, and a big fat smile on your face.
I'm at the age where I realize.... nothing, actually.
