“Rachmaninoff’s music for me has always transcended the cerebral, making my life and what it comes with, feel like a fantasy, like a movie. I wanted to celebrate that feeling of eternity in a song. Music is a miracle, art is a miracle, and it’s miraculous because it is a mystery, and yet there’s no need to question it. The chorus is an interpolation of the B section from Rachmaninoff’s Prelude in G minor. And somehow, even though this is a piece over 100 years old, the chorus manages to really strike people in modern times. I think that’s all Rachmaninoff though, his music transcends time, feeling always from the future.
