My girlfriend of four years died in a car accident last month. I was fired from my job. I seriously considered ending it all. Then I listened to this song. Now I think I can get by.
Ai is the Japanese term for Love....isn't it? I thought it was....please correct me if I'm wrong. But, uh, Ih-Ah could be the pronunciation for Ai reversed...or something...*babbles off into idiocy*
i remember showing my friend this song. he thought it said "in-ah" and it was about having sex. now, i don't know what the song is about exactly, but i'm pretty sure it's not that. oh and i also told him it was ih-ah, not in-ah.
This is one of the best songs i have heard in a long time not to mention the whole album... It is brilliant! way to take a 4 chord song and fly to the heavens with it! It moves me! Hope to catch DTP at the 2012 NAMM!
Musically (and lyrically a bit) this song is pure irony, ever heard of the four chord songs? Even the intro melody that reprises is pure Coldplay/Radiohead/you name it (nothing wrong in 'em don't get me wrong..). And the college rock guitars. This blows away everything that's pushed to us in the radio, it's just done perfectly in the western pop-rock structure, why do they even try anymore? Seeing them in a week again <3 Oh and the lyrics, the lyrics..
this is the way how should be done every song with commercial sound (but I want to say there's nothing wrong about commercial songs, but now are most of them crap :/)
Definetely one of the "Songs of my life" :) I totally adore Devin, his voice is so incredible, he could sing song like this but also SYL songs and be always awesome!
LOVE This song. my 20 month old even sings the in-ah part! Saw them live last month, and was so hoping they would play this, but they did not.. still an awesome show though! cant wait for the next one.
I love all Devin has done, if this if your st album w/ him go check out the rest, I know you'll love it, ill open up perspectives in ya u havent seen b4, cheers!
GREAT track, GREAT artist... this track's a bit commercial as such, but full of soul, layers and textures - unlike most of the other commercial crap! ('Ih-Ah!' = life force).
@sinbad64 I think thats part of the beauty of this song. Its pretty simple (on the surface at least), but Devin makes it a unique piece of art. Kinda like what Paul Masvidal did with his Aeon Spoke stuff.
i need your mind <3

It's actually "In-Ah!". Also I love this song, purely because of the contrast this song has with the rest of the album.

@NitroVortox Nah, it's Ih-Ah, "In-Ah" was just a typo that propagated after the album's release
