Hey I'm a young artist, and I really would like everybody to check out my original ballad on my channel entitled "Why Can't I Live in Your Heart." It's a quiet storm ballad that sounds sounds like a cross between Boyz II Men's "End of the Road," Mariah Carey's "Can't Let Go," and Vanessa Williams' "Save the Best for Last."
OK i love this song a lot but........ what does the song have to do with a bird lady?? the video is artfully done but i just dont get the correlation with the song.
I dont know why but I like this version better. With the other video the premise was obvious and this version you have to watch it a couple times to get it.
Mmmm?? Those horns remind me of this song from the mid 60's called '98.6' by an artist called Keith.The horns also sound like they come from some 70's made for TV movie staring Ronnie Cox,Glynnis O'Conner,Hope Lange,or Robbie Benson.You know,some post hippie feel good movie that takes place in some small town in Northern California,WI,or Minn.WEIRD.
i just now found out about this band,but i did hear of some of their songs,like on 'sex and the city' and whatnot...but in my opinion,the female vocalist sounds slightly like sia.
its basically just her inner self.. like in the beginning you see her just kinda walk in and you think to yourself "its just some old lady smoking" and whatnot, but through the video it shows her real self and the person thats inside the body.
The woman is a man who is also a bird spirit and even though he/she looks decrepid in her robe and fake hair, when her bird spirit is active she is really happy and it takes her her whole life to create an identity for herself that she can live with. And this video is like a little snapshot that tells the story of her whole life. It is really brilliant.
hey, you eclecticbgirl, yes i do kinda agree, but this vid, is about someone not have any self esteem, and they wish they were somebody else. they want to "throw their life away."
who the fuck is ruining all these awesome zero 7 songs with these stupid ass videos???? I havent seen a single good zero 7 video... even the video of destiny fails to capture the true romance and atmosphere of the song.
I have two of their albums, simple things and when it all falls, does anybody know of other albums or where to get this song and songs from this phase of their career?
i have to say as much as i love zero 7 and as much as pink cannot be compared to this band as far as content and general talent goes, that sia's voice is somewhat similar to pink's voice in some ways, just to play devils advocate, but again no comparison in content or general talent.
I love this song and I never get tired of it! I thought the video was going to be different. I always think of the 60's when I hear this song. Strange.
The video is directed by Cam Archer, who has dircted music videos for Xiu Xiu, Six Organs Of Admittance, Emily Jane White, The Diamond Star Halos and Imperial Teen. He's made a few short films (his early film - Bobby Crush is on youtube) and his debut feature film, Wild Tigers I Have Known, has been screened at film festivals globally before it's theatrical release next year.
i agreel, the editing of the video is way too slow for the tempo of the song, it makes me feel a bit sick, the fact that the woman you put in the video is fat and old doesn't help matters either.
The song is great. This video looks like the office junior made it using the spare change he had left in his pocket after he was sent down to the chippy. Don't insult us with this crap. Fire the director
I'd be very surprised if this was an official second video. The actual official video, symbolizing the ups and downs of fad consumerism/fads, is great and more in line with the style of videos the guys like to put out there. So i don't know why they'd commission a second video, the caliber of which any high school kid could do as a class project for homework.
I love this band
