12tone - Understanding That Rat in a Cage Song

I want to change my website to make it easier to share little things: capsule book reviews, or random thoughts, or anything else that I would’ve tweeted back when I was on Twitter. In the meantime—

I love this song. It’s fascinating to see music theory applied to popular music, and the interpretation brings out a lot of stuff I can feel but never thought about.

(The visuals have a bit of music notation, but they’re mostly doodles for the sake of keeping the video interesting. You can just listen if they’re distracting.)
