My apologies for this being done later. Also, I'm not doing songs on Sundays.
This is song kind of hard to get through at first because it just bursts with this random energy that it doesn't quite know what to do with. It starts out calm and then takes you on a journey and that journey comes crashing together, going out of control. The synth guitar somehow knows it's limits, while the synth string accompaniment supports the guitar by adding another layer of epic emotion. All the other synths in the song weave in and out, coming and going as they please.
The drums kind of hang around, not necessarily doing anything special, but they provide something stable to listen to in case you can't handle everything else. The piano synth is very capricious and will sometimes choose to calm everything down with a couple chords it plays on it's own, or it can escalate everything at certain climaxes. Things can get really overwhelming after a bit, but there's so many layers that you can listen to it over and over again, finding something new.
What his song reminds me of, is ocean waves– how it can be calm all of a sudden and then things start crashing all around you, knocking you down. You can easily be swept up in the seemingly arbitrary rhythm while it slowly allows you to feel the melodic pace.
My favorite part about this song is how it slows down almost abruptly to gently settle you in to not hearing it anymore.

[EDIT]
OH MY GOD. I can't stay awake long enough to edit myself. Parts of that really didn't make sense... at all.
