I have never heard a song that so clearly captured emotion. The sadness of the piano and the strings, coupled with the building roar of the ocean it creates such melancholy and longing. Yet it turns bittersweet at the end with such beautiful strength when the drums begin I am simply blown away. This is a deeply moving piece.
Oh, its so beautiful. My heart gives a little jump and then it aches and flies. There are so many emotions and I'm just stunned into listening silently.
This song is poignant (Emotional moving for those who do not know what poignant means)
This song...is by far gorgeous. This piece of music is different from the others that I have heard, and to be honest this would better than the other corrupt music that is played. This song just encourages me to want to learn how to play the song and perform like no other musician. So beautiful...
This is probably the most beautiful piece of music Ive ever heard.
Its been my Myspace profile song for a while now... its just, amazing.
Its so sad, but happy at the same time, I just get this feeling of hope at about 2.25 in and at 3.30 it just filles me up with joy and calmness, I dont know... its gorgeous.

sorry to say this guys, but this song has been written by almost every post-rock band and musician there is. it doesn't really bring anything new to post-rock, and it's not really good.
How do people miss these things. most truly moving music is passed over as it is deemed to thought provoking for mass consumption. Amen to the artist that still creates music as it should be. thought provoking and memorable. not watered down and uninspired.

@MiyuAmane Actually poignant is from poignard, a sharp object. It means sharply melancholic specifically.
Schemilix 3 months ago
@Schemilix Not quite, it derives from Old French, poindre, meaning to prick, just a little less than sharp.
PBandJeIIy 3 months ago
@PBandJeIIy Ah my mistake. Comes from the same root as poignard then. :)
