This is one of my favorite songs by them. The spill canvas has been one of my favorite bands for like 7 years. The music is so beautiful and has such deep meaning.
first song i heard by them. i was a 14 year old freshman in 2006. oddly enough i ran away from home because of problems with my mother and stayed I with a friend. this is the song she had playing when we arrived at her place. When it was over I asked her to play it again and again and again and i fell asleep with these lyrics in my head. it all made so much sense back then. I will always love this song.
this song is really sad.. when i was little me, my younger sister and younger brother lived with our mom and step dad, they did meth all the time.. my mom didn't even know he was abusing me and my sister and emotionally scarring my brother. we were taken away from her when i was in fifth grade. and were in foster care for a while.i hated my mom for letting all that happen to me and my siblings. she didn't even notice or pay much attention when the tide came in and swept her three into the ocean.
The 7 people who disliked this should be shot. This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life. We need more music like this today.
6 beautiful puppies of my dogs were just drowned in a horrible mini-flood and for reasons i have yet to understand the first thing i had to do was listen to this song. R.I.P my innocent beauties
I heard this song was really good, it's make you cry, get all emotional and crap.
I'm honestly not affected by it. I was expecting something a little more... I dunno. Moving I guess is sort of the word. It's a good song, don't get me wrong, I just don't find it as my... type I guess. I don't really like it. But I know I couldn't come up with a song as good as this if I tried. I'm not trying to be a hatter, I'm just saying what I think.
his voice is not at at all unique, the instruments are normal, and the sound is overall average. But, the lyrics are so beautiful, it makes up. Great song, in my book.
-Kurt Cobain. Not exactly the same, but some similarities can be found, at least among his softer stuff.
-The dude from "Panic at the Disco". Very similar. PatD is terrible, but they do sound the same.
I could probably list others, but I am tired, and I have finals. I am in no way saying he is a bad singer. Just that he isn't the most unique in the world, by far.
@TheEaglesRockAlot I guess it depends on each one's music interest. I could probably say that one singer u listen to doesnt have a unique voice, while you'd find it unique. I think the only thing that matters is that you're satisfied with what you hear :P
The lyrics are great and slightly clever, but his voice is very plain and a bit whiny. I've heard this type of "voice" before. It's a shame too. I really wanted to like this song because my crush does. But I can't force myself to like something that's "okay".
I'm not sure about anyone else but when I first really listened to the song, aka read the lyrics... The 3rd verse/chorus made me cry really hard. I cried too much to sing along, now I feel a tug at my heart and tears start to well up when that part comes on, but I no longer cry cry. This song is very touching and beautiful, despite being a little repeative... I like to listen to this song when I'm sad, it's really very touching.
in this song, I think it means that their mother is like, heartbroken and she doesn't do anything but lay in bed cuz she's depressed. I thought it meant paralyzed lol, but in the music video, she still walked, so I'm retarded. but yeah, I'm pretty sure it means depressed.
omg! i saw people commenting on how deep the lyrics were and rolled my eyes, but they truly are. I can feel my eyes getting heavier as I write this. This is the kind of music that makes me believe we didn't forget everything that was true about life.
this song is sad, but true to some families. and anyone reading this and going thru this im truly sorry. but wht they mean by "the tide" is life & they got caught up with sadness & evrything & they went out & didnt kno better cuz theie mom nvr told them rite from wrong, and their dad nvr was around. so they basically went out in the world & got killed or something. sad but amazing song.
this is probably one of the saddest songs i've heard. no wonder my friend cried when she heard this...this also has great quotes i can use on my art project
"Heaven is not the place that you go when you die. It's that moment in life when you touch her and you feel alive."
It's so true. I just got out of an abusive relationship. Now, I'm with someone else and I'm happy. Love IS completely real. This song reminds me not to give up hope. <3
the message came across to me that, you should appreciate and value love, because thats the clostest thing to heaven you'll ever get. and that it can be swept away at any minuet.
This song is so amazing but sad atthe same time. it makes me wanna cry but i cant stop listening to it either <3
