This song really reminds me of a film called "The Return of Martin Guerre" if you haven't watched it go and do that now, it is a french film but bare with it. This is a beautiful song showed to me by my brother shows wisdom doesn't always come hand in hand with age.
I'm a big fan and very inspired by José González, so I'm just wondering if you would be interested in checking out my song "One In An Ocean - Live A Little" at my channel?
This, as well as plan bs cover i think are both truely powerful songs in different ways, this one speaks out to you and brings you up and down, makes you think. Plan Bs version makes you think about life as it goes through time and all the things you wish you done but its too late now. Both in my top 10 songs of all time.
@dacki1234 yeah, im a athiest too(?). but to repect ohter's opinion is something to be repected. all humans believe what they want , reguardless if it;s wrong or right. all of us humans are related
@Seeto200 That's not Atheism, I think you're trying to refer to Agnosticism. Atheism is definately not about being open for debate, it's about believing a God does NOT exist, not about the possibly one does or does not exist.
@Seeto200 There's beauty in a lot (programmed, unprogrammed, biased, or pretending not to be), even if you don't see or understand why someone else believes what they do. If we're willing to learn instead of judge, we can find beauty in everything. Even a song as AWESOME as this one is. Good stuff Jose Gonzalez!!!
this is it, probably one of the best songs ever written, it can bring you up, it canbring you down, it can empower it can make you feel worthless, this is a song a bout reality portrayed by a true poet
If you like this, check out Zero 7's version. The vocals are exactly the same (González), but it does have an electronic feel to it. I love the last 3:00 (especially minute and a half). The music video is also unbelievably trippy. I actually watched it during my first acid trip. When great musicians come together, great things happen. :) Enough rambling, this acoustic version is amazing as well.
Haha nah man.. i did like this... umm... i turned myself around and stood backwords to the pc screen in my armchair, and looked under beetwen my legs with my ass in the air.. and all the blood rushed to my head and i thought i would faint but i didn't... So ya im kinda weird U__U
Blahzee-Blah and The Snoretones, with The Cleveland Snorechestra, proudly present this song. Played on radio station WIMP courtesy of gramma's false teef and Darker Bros. Bangin Beats Consortium in conjuction with The Society for the Preservation of Purpl-er Hamsters Reserve Foundation.No animals were filmed OR hurt during this recording, though a number of PESTY RODENTS fell asleep on my lap. Because they were snore bored? Perhaps. Indeed. And other words such as those.
@Mouse18e I used a syntactical inversion, so did you in an earlier post, this makes you a hypocrite, also that is "proper english", i know what sarcasm is and my answer was with rhetoric.
@sam0n0toby I wasn't on about your syntactical gibberish. I was merely stating that "to use them also" is wrong. No linguistic, just proper wrong. Besides, you're making the same mistake now, because you can't haven an answer "with rhetoric", there's only just the rhetoric answer. Your argument is invalid.
*posts overemotional and innapropriate response to previous statements/arguments and proceeds to show everyone how hip i am by stating i knew of this person first*
i hate the fact that plan B sampled this and made one of his shitty literal story telling songs that contained the lines 'i know it's your birthday and that's why i'm sorry that i spoiled it, you know i didn't mean it when i said i should've wanked you down the toilet'
this song deserves to be associated with much better things, because it's so beautiful. i love love love love jose, and i do agree that people are entitled to sample whatever artists they want, but plan b ruined it.
i hate how everyone compares jose to other artists hes his own and his music is special in his own way stop pretending hes like someone because no ones is like anyone else we all have are own artistic vision
Its odd to me how the Play gay shit on the radio and all the popular songs are the music worst music every made... but all the good music in this world are all hidden and isnt super popular and isnt played on the radio. its like society chooses crap over real Talent.
how does he makes that his voice sounds so thick..and so oldschool in a simon and garfunkel way..any sound engineer here who knows how to make this oldschool effect..i want to know how: chorus? and?
@TheNoCoincidence I think he's recorded the vocal track twice or more and then put them together along with a compresser effect to make them blend together. I'm not a sound engineer but that's what it sounds like.
my god this is intense... normally i feel crying to a song is a cliché but to this song i can just cry without having to reflect and judge about it...just pure
Headphones on, and walking through a unknown town, and you will experience everything in a special way: streets, lights, people and youll find special corners, which usually seem to be ordinary places.
You feal much lighter and dont care about any problems. Then you see: Feels much better with a smile on you face.
I've been listening to this masterpiece for several hours so far and I haven't had enough...So pure, nostalgic... Just magical in its simplicity. Beautifully played and sung...
I begin to cry when i hear this. It's so beautiful
