Ariel Pink

Ariel Marcus Rosenberg ( AR-ee-el; born June 24, 1978), also known as Ariel Pink, is an American multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter whose music draws heavily from 1970s–1980s pop radio and cassette culture. His lo-fi aesthetic and home-recorded albums proved influential to many indie artists in the late 2000s, and he is frequently cited as "godfather" of the hypnagogic pop and chillwave movements. The majority of his recorded output stems from a prolific eight-year period in which he accumulated over 200 cassette tapes of material. A native of Los Angeles, Rosenberg began experimenting with recording songs on an eight-track Portastudio as a teenager. His early influences were artists such as Michael Jackson, the Cure, and R.

I am the sun of the future
25 years from now, I think
Try recalling the Golden Age
When we heard these words for the first time
Please come back to the exact spot we're at
We're speaking right now
 
Never forget the Golden Age
Doncha hear that this song is forever
Never forget the Golden Age
Notice it didn't remain as remembered
Never forget the Golden Age
A quarter century from now
Never forget the Golden Age
 
It never used to make you sad
But now you lost what you never knew you had
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact of that
 
If this is you, 25 years accrued
Disregard the following's for the old you
Who hasn't heard this before
""Son I gotta tell ya bout the future see
It's a living hell, it's not at all like the golden age
They're gonna kill your comforts with worries
Pertaining to your health, Pertaining to your future
Pertaining to ya mama""
 
Never forget the golden age
A man of wealth you saw yourself someday
Never forget the golden age - where is the soldier
He used to be so brave he left a martyr and
Came back a slave
 
Neither teachers nor dads
Could see the world that they brought ya to was bad
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact, artifact of that
 
When the terrorists
Spread the plague through
Computer screens and we die
And they erase what was
Left of the west
Just a shopping mall
In 25 minutes I want
You to come back
And recall the first time
In 25 minutes
The world's gonna crack
It's all gonna crack!
 
Remember this tune made you laugh
But these days a laugh's merely artifact
Artifact of that
 
It never used to make you sad
But now you lost what you never knew you had
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact of that
