A Journey Through Dreams and Reality: Understanding 'Fellow Feeling' by Porter Robinson

Porter Robinson's 'Fellow Feeling' is a deeply emotional and introspective song that explores the interconnectedness of human experiences and the power of dreams. The lyrics open with a sense of disbelief and wonder, as the narrator reflects on the possibility that they and another person have always known each other. This idea of a timeless connection suggests a profound bond that transcends the physical world, hinting at a shared dreamscape where all places and experiences coexist on the surface of their collective imagination.

The song then shifts to a more somber tone, as the narrator addresses the ugliness, cruelty, and repulsiveness that exist in the world. This acknowledgment of the darker aspects of life serves as a contrast to the beauty and purity of the dream world they have conjured. The narrator's plea to 'hear what I hear' is a call for empathy and understanding, urging others to recognize the potential for beauty and connection amidst the chaos and suffering.

In the final lines, the narrator expresses a sense of hope and longing for a world where ugliness and cruelty will eventually die out, leaving only beauty in their wake. This sentiment reflects a desire for a better, more compassionate world, where the shared dream of interconnectedness and understanding can become a reality. Porter Robinson's 'Fellow Feeling' is a powerful reminder of the importance of empathy, the potential for beauty in the face of adversity, and the enduring strength of human connections.
