Papa Universe 05.09.17	Predicting a feature, if not then I'll do something...or nothing...yeah, nothing sounds better.
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	Wow! Thanks for the feature, powers that be.
TalonsOfFire 05.09.17	You're welcome :D this gave me a laugh. He really likes trains
Azertherion 05.09.17	https://imgur.com/zpVnYuO
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	Just remembered Happiness 3 has train sounds, will add
Artuma 05.09.17	"You're welcome :D this gave me a laugh." lol
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	He also likes to reference shopping malls (This Is No Rehearsal, FOABP, Anesthetize, Happiness III, Sentimental, Normal, My Book Of Regrets)
AmericanFlagAsh 05.09.17	Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed- interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics.
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	But why would I want to do a thing like that?
AmericanFlagAsh 05.09.17	There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	Have you seen T2 yet? I know it's been released outside of the UK now.
AmericanFlagAsh 05.09.17	No I didn't catch it, but will for sure see it when it comes out on streaming

Tunaboy45 05.09.17	@AFA Really good, stands on its own whilst calling back to the original. It gets weirdly meta too but I'll leave it there.
Jasdevi087 05.09.17	the line about trains in Happy Returns is like my favourite Steven Wilson moment cause it's just so stupid
Emyay 05.09.17	train sounds in lazarus?
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	Pretty sure Deadwing has train sounds too
Orb 05.09.17	Lol this rivals Meshuggah and the word "reality"
Koris 05.09.17	"perhaps he needs to change his train of thought" fuck, that was a good one, lol
Tunaboy45 05.09.17	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQmej9MfHJc
50iL 05.10.17	He goes off the rails with this theme like geez
TalonsOfFire 05.10.17	"The years just pass like trains" lmao is that a real line, how adorable
BlazinBlitzer 05.10.17	I propose that this is a metaphor for how hard he trains at being a better musician. The ending of Lazarus even has what I think is a train sound, and also, as Tuna said, he has an affinity for shopping malls, too.
TalonsOfFire 05.10.17	I like that he keeps it a recurring subject, and I love Happy Returns it's just an endearing line.
BlazinBlitzer 05.10.17	"The years just pass like trains" So... are we talking Amtrak trains or kiddie-ride trains?
Tunaboy45 05.10.17	Happy Returns is just endearing through and through, and kind of heartbreaking
Orb 05.10.17	Me and Steve both grew up with Thomas the Tank engine so like.. I get it maan.
TwigTW 05.10.17	http://www.quickmeme.com/meme/3ps115
Tunaboy45 05.10.17	Steven's music and lyrics have always had a level of childhood innocence to them, especially his 90s work and HCE. Trains embody that in a way.
Tunaboy45 05.10.17	That innocence contrasts nicely with all of the dark themes he also likes to explore.
BlazinBlitzer 05.10.17	^ Pretty much this.
altertide0 05.12.17	also worth noting I think that "Sentimental" contains a musical citation of "Trains" (at around 3:50 is the main riff of "Trains")
Tunaboy45 05.12.17	"cunt bangs on about trains and doesn't wear shoes"- zak
Tunaboy45 05.12.17	@altertide0 glad I'm not the only person who noticed that, I always thought it was just a coincidence or it just sounds slightly similar but I suppose it is the exact same riff
altertide0 05.12.17	i don't think it's a coincidence as this citation occurs near the end of the track, and the next track on the album which is "way out of here" begins with "out at the train tracks..." ALSO "normal", which is an alternative version of "sentimental" from the nil recurring ep ALSO contains a "Trains" citation -- A DIFFERENT ONE. So I'm almost 100% sure it was intentional
Tunaboy45 05.13.17	It probably was in that case, especially if Normal has a different one.

Jasdevi087 04.06.18	yo idk if you wanna double up or not but Lazarus also has train sound effects at the end
Tunaboy45 12.28.23	Wow I can finally add to this thanks to Staircase Can't remember if there were any trains on TFB or Closure Continuation
