remember zane low playing this for a few weeks years ago and i never could remember the name of it. years past and I was watching "animal factory" and hes in it! an unmistakeable voice, and therefore so easy to find!!
2:26 I ABSOLUTELY love this song but I still can't bring myself to like that transition. I love the 2 segments to the song in their own right but I think they really clash when put together. I wish he'd worked on a bridge between the 2 or something :/.
This is a really beautiful song and I heard it on facebook on a memorial page for my daughters best~friend that passed....someone posted it...and her name was Hope....even though they are paraphrasing it....I got to hear this awesome song for the first time and holds two meanings for me one for hope valles and one for hope.....sometimes all we have is hope.....hangin tough...Wendy...<3
I think it is one of the most beautiful songs ever! I must have played it a million times. NeleForPresident, you are obviously the most intelligent in your class! :)
Just discovered this. Teacher let us hear it in class. Everyone was like 'pfff' and I loved it. I'm glad he named the band, I don't think I'd dare to ask after it since I was the only one who liked it. Liked it very very very much. :)
I really appreciate that everyone has different tastes and therefore may not enjoy or even appreciate this performance, what is poor though is the wanker's that try to fling out a poor attempt at comedy by trying to ridicule a performance that is so far above them in frequency, that it is in itself laughable. Crack on.

Too much vibrato, get's realllllly annoying. I'm trying to like his music, especially after his collaborations with Bjork and Nico Muhly, but his talent doesn't touch me.
@MrMasterskywalker I felt that same way 3 months ago. Now I love his overly vibrato vocals. I recommend coming back to listen once in a while, it might start working for you. :)
one for the single best performances on jool great talent great voice. And listen to the pin down, pure silence, you no when your good and you got the audience listening to your ever word, need i say more.
Admiravelmente perfeita. Entra em ressonancia com o bater do coração. Experiencia unica! ( Amazingly perfect. Comes into resonance with the heartbeat. Unique experience!)
i love his songs, but his image just does not fit ffs. it makes me giggle although i'd better cry about the songs. he should please do something about his hair ! :))))))))
la verda es k sus canciones son bastante buenas pero no me imaginaba asi ni por asomo bamos la verda es k le pega cantar asi al k ace el anunciode massimo duti jjjjj
This may be the greatest thing I've ever heard. I'm not kidding, I feel like crying and laughing and dying and running and dancing. wtf dude, this is incredible
If you don't like what happens at 2:30..you just don't get this song..it to me, is the point in this beautiful composition where it's a combo of the mournful wail of someone losing a loved one in addition to the moment of death..between life and falling..when the soul/spirit is leaving the body..listen to the recorded version. It's layered and intense..and if you're not moved by it..well then check your heart for a pulse.
@manthefuckupdude It's a man, I believe he is a transvestite, too. Regardless, he's a great artist, one of the best. It's just unfortunate that the attitudes of people like yourself stop people like this getting the fame and success they deserve. Instead, they've all got to fit a certain mould and sing shitty songs that mean nothing. This is someone Simon Cowell would not be interested in. Because he's actually got something other than a pretty face or a sob story. This is music
@birchual Just like @jenmiddaugh says: 'If you don't like what happens at 2:30..you just don't get this song..it to me, is the point in this beautiful composition where it's a combo of the mournful wail of someone losing a loved one in addition to the moment of death..between life and falling..when the soul/spirit is leaving the body..listen to the recorded version. It's layered and intense..and if you're not moved by it..well then check your heart for a pulse.'
When I first heard this song it broke me in two. The ending seemed out of place until I realised the emotion that is projected - it seems to contrast with the seeming softness of the rest of the song, technically, but it take the feeling and meaning beyond words and lyrics. Full on, but so so beautiful.
i had the chance to meet antony after his show in frankfurt, germany. he was so lovely, signing our concert tickets and thanking the few people that have been there that they waited for him so long. i didnt expect him to be this nice, so down to earth.
