I just watched the movie "CashBack" and as it went the movie was really good and as the end credits were coming up i heard this song and pulled the info from the music credits. Really great song.
i Hate that Lmfao or whatever watching me while im watching this amazing video and listening to this amazing song.i hate fucking vevo with that fucking -"must see" shit.vevo,u stupid and u know it!!!!!!
Road's end getting nearer We cover distance but not together I am the storm, and I am the wonder And the flashlights, nightmares, sudden explosions I don't know what more to ask for I was given just one wish It's about you and the sun A morning run The story of my maker What I have and what I ache for I've got a golden ear I cut and I spear And what else is there? Road's end getting nearer We cover distance still not together
If I am the storm, if I am the wonder Will I have flashlights, nightmares, sudden explosions? I don't know what more to ask for I was giving just one wish Road's end getting nearer We cover distance but not together I am the storm and I am the wonder And the flashlights, nightmares, sudden explosions There is no room where I can go and You've got secrets too I don't know what more to ask for I was given just one wish
whats that thing that drips from her pants? it looks so wrong xD and the unessasary floating just a alittle above the ground makes me laughs just a little bit for some reason O.o
I think this song is about the ghost of a woman who was hit by a car. "It was me on that road, but you couldn't see me" - the driver didn't see her, the collision was 'flashlights, sudden explosions!' She floats along as a ghost down the road where she was killed, but no humans can see her, though dogs can. Because she's dead and time is passing, the buildings she knew in life are 'floating away'. At last, she finds another ghost, a woman from the 1600s, and the two comfort each other.
@MorganBonny the scene with the table at the end might be seen as a reference to the story by Karen Blixen about Babette's fiest...a fiest made by the housemaid Babette where everyone in the village was welcome.
@MorganBonny Sometimes it's not something literal when people write songs. If you're so keen on deconstructing songs, how about you explain "We Share Our Mother's Health" by the Knife to me. I think it's abstract and simply should be appreciated for its aesthetic and musical value.
I agree to a point. But abstraction can be a method of exploring reality, and that is what is being done in this well-written song. It's not just a bunch of random words - the theme MorganBonny presents is very real in both song and video. The video and song was meant to be explained if desired (for reflection purposes) and enjoyed (in the moment) without question!
@MorganBonny i agree. she was hit by a car on a morning run, and given 1 week before she died . time goes on, buildings collapse or are torn down or float away. time goes on and on showing how fruit gets moldy. She finds comfort in the lady from the 1600s but I don't think its quite there yet -the roads are getting nearer close the distance but not together. thank u
@MrVolokine you act like it's bad to be compared to björk; she's an amazing artist... and the voice does remind me of hers, though i think i'll always like this song above any of björk's. don't be so touchy, you didn't write, produce, or sing the song, did you?
It's no stretch - songs about a 12 year old with a crush, or maybe more properly - the insights of someone looking back at a frozen moment in time. I'm sure there's more depth to it than what I have to offer.
Fucking astounding, Karin Anderson is a superior vocalist. America doesn't appreciate music like this, she's smart enough to speak English unlike most Americans (I am American.)
The girl flying is a ghost, she was killed in a hit and run collision (It was me on that road, but you couldn't see me). She was given one week to haunt the driver. The driver is the older woman and is the singer incidentally. The imagery during their meeting kinda gives it away, it looks old because it is.
