When I first heard this song,I thought it was a great pop hit.But then I read the story of Damini the elephant.She was a 72yr old elephant.She was introduced to a younger,pregnant elephant and they connected well.So well,that when the younger elephant passed away during labor she became overwhelmed with grief,starved herself and even cried because of losing her friend.Even with medical help,she passed away.Listen to this song again and try not to cry.Every lyric is about Damini and her friend.
you know what I hate? when people claim that animals have no emotions or feelings when there are documented cases from all over the world that the opposite is true. you can't be self aware and semi-intelligent and not have feelings it's not possible.
i don't know why any of you are talking about the fact that elephants can't jump...that's not relevant to the Damini the Elephant story...nor is it relevant to this song. Damini cried because Champakali died at childbirth, and the child was also stillborn- then Damini passed away 20 or so days later from starvation and depression.
@PhantomBoku show him neway, if u need attention to share USS's music, ur no true fan, ur a fuckin wannabee. show him anyway u pussy they need more mouth to ear promotion these guys r dope!
@itfelldown Damini was a Elephant whos companion died while giving birth. Damini afterwards was too heartbroken to eat or drink or do anything so after about a month of laying on her side she starved herself to death :'( She wanted to die because her heart was too broken to carry on I guess..elephants never forget.>and they are very emotional
Does anyone else get the feeling that the person hes singing about has past away? And that he'd give anything to join her in death than be alive all alone? Thats my interpretation of it.
@zentrani that's possible, but to be honest, I feel this way about someone living so I think it is so well written it can be interpretted in many different ways
"Come Back, take me with you, i, can't exist if me don't = you, love. Be here, right as i am, right as you were, answer me, peace - love. To feel, your ever summer chest, so stealth. so close to my breath oh,... Fell down all on my own, i'd rather be an angel with you, then be alone. i, cry, even in my sleep. acres a week. answer me, peace - love."

Heard the song and heard of the Damini story, but I had no idea they were associated until I came to watch the video here. How bittersweet.

@itfelldown "Damini, who was 72, had befriended a younger pregnant elephant called Champakali at the Prince of Wales Zoo in Lucknow.
But she starved herself to death in misery when Champakali died in childbirth."
