Description
The song "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" is from the album Neutral Milk Hotel, and it is a fantastic song. The opening seconds of the song are catchy and the intonation of Jeff Magnum lends credibility to the line "When you were young, you were the King of Carrot Flowers." The song feels like stepping through Alice's looking glass and entering a fantastic new universe that, while it doesn't always make sense logically, feels like the home you never had.

In the Aeroplane is like stepping through Alice's looking glass; you enter a fantastic new universe that, while it doesn't always make sense logically, feels like the home you never had.
