Phenomenal song by Quincy Jones, well known for being one of the Grammy-winningest producers in all of history, from his masterpiece album The Dude.
The entire album, which is a masterpiece.

This album won three Grammies, all of them deserved, and for some reason is completely neglected these days.
 
well your fingers weave quick minarets, speak in secret alphabet...

letters are written, never meaning to send

before lonelyness will break my heart, send me a postcard darling

And though we may be blind, love is here to stay and that's enough
 
Ive been heavily Beatles-pilled recently. I hadn't listened to them much before the last few months but recently they've been a good chunk of the music i listen to.

The Beatles literally did nothing wrong.

You're gonna carry that Gunt a long time.

The Beatles is a rare band that has no bad records. Some are better than others, but all are enjoyable for one reason or another. They were also really good at finishing things. There are very few outtakes or demos, whereas some other bands contemporary to them have more unfinished stuff than they finished. How is that a good thing? Well, their body of work is exactly as presented. No alternatives or "what ifs." No stupid mysteries. It's a bold and unambiguous artistic statement which is rare.
