[keitaro21]

Wow firrst time I listen something from Jim after Sparta, it's pretty cool with acoustic guitar, I hope to see him with Omar someday

[jangiie]

[crazycrow76]

This song just fucking hurts . .. Tegan nails her vocal here .. . . .

[crazycrow76]

Tegan has never sounded as beautiful as here. Her vocal leaves such an ache in my heart .. .

[ShinyHeartDiary]

I love you Jim

[SirFartington]

this song should have an "official music video". not that this isn't amazing! i would just love to see them while they're singing this, ya know?!

[Kate1157]

@SirFartington I agree!

[regurgitron2000]

I LOVE this song so much.

[MisusePerfected]

AFFLICTION (SCHMERZEN) SUN, THOU WEEPEST EVERY EVENING UNTIL THY LOVELY EYES ARE RED WHEN UNTO THE OCEAN’S MIRROR SINKING THOU GOEST TO AN EARLY DEATH:

YET ART THOU ARISEN IN WONTED SPLENDOR GLORY STORY OF THE DARKENED WORLD NEW AWAKENED THE MORNING LIKE A PROUD AND CONQUERING HERO AND NOW SHALL I SAY MY HEART IS SO HEAVY LADEN: MUST NOT THE SUN ITSELF GO DOWN? AND DEATH BEGETS LIFE SORROWS BRING FORTH BLISS: O, HOW I THANK THEE, NATURE, WHO HAST GIVEN SUCH AFFLICTION UNTO ME

[MisusePerfected]

I noticed on the first picture it says "(Schmerzen)" on her Shirt (first line), that's German for "pains"...is the print part of a German poem or something, and is the word Schmerzen sometimes used poetically in English, like in Weltschmerz?

[NINtastisch]

damn....two of most favorite musicans play together...dude normally such good things only happen in dreams <3

[MARKERIC23]

great song!! bless myself track is here!! listen here

[Ziplocks619]

[Ziplocks619]

[groovygavin254]

Tegan's voice sounds so desperate and sad and lovely in this... :,)

[Ziplocks619]

[NickDangernKevy]

[Nazawazza17]

I think is tegan two times

[vrtveronique]

[heyitsjules]

[tegsandsara09]

[intensivelove]

does anyone know the chords? a link? or something?

[botobuci]

@intensivelove

You ever find/figure out the chords. I am looking too. The first chord is B. Thats all I got.

[CountLiesula]

TEGAN TEGAN TEGAN! <3

[turdfacesaywhaaaa]

My thoughts exactly. ^-^

[RoswellFan191]

Does anyone know where to get the shirt Tegan has on in the beginning?

[ElPulpoTX]

your butt

[RoswellFan191]

It wasn't there. :]

[ElPulpoTX]

oh no

[eyeadore]

There is a website that deals specifically with what they wear, I'm sure it would have that shirt on there.. I don't remember what the link is, but you can try googling it.. It's the first link when you search "Tegan sara clothes".

[cenemostortugas]

it's called "Schmerzen" by Drkshdw

but it's not available anymore =(

[2222bre2222]

will someone please send me an mp3?

thankks

[BenioxoXox]

isn't Jim Ward a voice actor for Jack Krauser from Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil DarkSide Chronicles!?!?!?

[Zaboomashu]

tabs??? i love this song...

[igotnospit]

That's really fucking pretty, makes me feel oooh

[falvare2]

While Omar and Cedric continue to be in the spotlight, jim continues to make great muzak.

[SOindiee]

oh where can i download this? it's sooo good! i love it. (: <3

[Kate1157]

Check in the description box - the link is there :-)

[jordandegroote]

im not sure why, but i think this is my favourite vocal performance from tegan.. that includes all tegan and sara songs. maybe because its so imperfect, it makes her sound vulnerable and brings an emotion that typical "good" singing couldn't.

[fabs1289]

he just played this song like 3 hrs ago at the plaza film festival....its amazing

[liesier90]

i am looking for the chords for this song real badly. i can't read tabs. anyone know where i can find the chords?

[ssx68]

you can find them on saraandtegan[dot]com

:)

[liesier90]

thx! yeah i got the songs originally from tembloroso[dot]com

[2222bre2222]

can someone send me this

[drinkfromthefurrycup]

This song is so ace...and the fact Tegan sings in it just makes it absolutely jaw dropping.

[TRQSKQTJA]

i really wish these kinds of songs were easier to buy! tegan's backing vocals are really good! her voice is so interesting and amazing! :) thnx heaps!

[EFA1337]

I agree!!!!!!! Tegan is like....... i don't know. I can't find any words for her.... Amazing :) Love Tegan (and Sara too)!

[PumaTomten]

Please Kate1157, would you send this to me by e-mail or something? :) I feel a little bit desperate ;p

[Kate1157]

hey pumatomten, you can pay as little as $1 for it, are you sure you don't wanna just buy it?! you get 5 amazing songs, well worth it!

[PumaTomten]

okay, it sounds good actually. I might do it. =D lol

[bradsb2g]

@Kate1157 i just checked the website and i didn't see it on there?  just some sleepercar and sparta ep's.

any idea where i can download this song?

[turquoisegrape]

such a beautiful song. cant stop listening to it. BREATH TAKING!

[PumaTomten]

okey, but i'm not into buying it, i guess i have to ask around. Starting here.

Does anyone have this song, and want to send it to me? :) Please :)

[PumaTomten]

Where can i get this song? :)

[Kate1157]

[PumaTomten]

Yeah, i saw that. But when i click on the link, or whatever it's called, it says i have to pay for it? :S I'm a tiiiny bit confused here :)

[utandaydar]
