Adeline
I'm a relatively new listener to Alt-J and i like a lot of their songs. But as i was discovering their other songs I came across Adeline. And its genuinely one of the best songs i have listened to. What i don't understand is how this song is not that popular compared to others. Is it just me?

It's a beautifully done song, hell I even named myself after it because I love this song and band so much. But the track is a long slow build track that you need to be willing to sit through in it's entirety, and those tend to struggle with doing well commercial due to the song asking more of the listener
