Great song and album, but if they had a genius like me as their producer or manager... I would have made an album like Pink Floyd back in the day.... it would have been EPIC!!!

[TheBloggart]

that's interesting, at 1:23 they changed the lyrics from "the witches and the liars" to "the terrorists and the liars"

[NeonFoxLetsPlays]

oh that's a contrabass...i always thought that guy played a cello.

[Nostalgios]

@NeonFoxLetsPlays In this particular piece, or in general?

[NeonFoxLetsPlays]

@Nostalgios in general

The amazing thing about them is that this was a song from their very first album. I've never heard a first album so powerful and magic. Incredibly powerful.

My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids

[corncornrocks]

they say a watched pot

wont ever boil

i closed my eyes

and nothing changed.

just some water.

getting hotter.

in the flames.

[TBW92]

@corncornrocks that's my favorite bit of the song as well

[sector311]

In the second verse, they changed "witches" to "terrorists." kind of a cool touch.

[bronzicon]

........the first time I heard this song(4 years ago or so)the only thing that came to mind was my girlfriend's daughter,when she was a little more than a baby.Not so much the lyrics as the actual music,so beautiful and innocent.Reminded me of how precious life is and how fortunate I really am to be here right now.

[positivitymaster]

known as a great song but i cant see it that way lol my musical mind is deaf oh well still one the the best bands of the decade. I hope it grows on me soon, like angel wings ha.

[jsnpojer]

at the time, 2 mins and 38 seconds the drummer puts one of his sticks in his mouth and then takes it out again. He has a look on his face like, "what the heck was that, what was i thinking, why did i put that stick in my mouth.". It's funny, check it out.

[sector311]

lol either that or its a "oh crap, camera's on me" look.

[etcettylovesyoudood]

i think he did that to do something with his hand on the drum set...

[jsnpojer]

this is probably one of my favorite songs by them. This is probably, wait.......yes this is one of my favorite bands of all time. If my personallity was music it would be this band.

[jennybuchler]

[butterbugs1234]

[paul43567]

[jozh90]

Absolutely amazing <3

[aliciadeters]

So gorgeous and so understated. The knocking on a wooden instrument in the background. Sweaty faces filled with passion. I love this video.

[mathieufaitmarcher]

in this video the wooden instrument is also used to produce rather low sounds using a gadget which in a special musical language you would call a "bow". among experts the instrument itself is known as "double bass". you're welcome.

[aliciadeters]

Oh my gosh! I was wondering what that instrument was! Maybe you could also help me figure out the meaning of facetious because I think that's what I was going for, there and now.
