The Knife - A Lung

[vodkayahourt]

Are they inspire by CocoRosie ... ? 

[SkurBeats]

cant stop listening to this tune, proper mesmerizing

[hennabanana123456789]

this is so weird but its also so good

[MrCranit]

13 people are not darth vader

[JimiChristopher]

The knife make great music .. I'm so happy i've found them .. similar to john frusciante solo stuff .. its more than just an electro pop thing its way deeper! i dont know how.

[Michanikka]

@JimiChristopher It might be the underlying meaning in their every word.. :) That is why i find them awesome anyway.Great music!!

[PTHOH]

I love their lyrics! So genuine, in a slightly creepy way

[Nikolaceae]

...but when listen i realise happiness :D

[Nikolaceae]

I like them, many people think its a deep dark music, similar to bjork, pj harvey...etc

[ushiskoroxodow]

nice sweden guys. they differ so much from the whole music scene - there is somthing very special in their music style.maybe ´cause they are from nordic country. all artists from nordic countries are very special.

[maryjane010490]

This song is SO weirdly obsessive, but surprisingly not one of their most popular ones. I honestly feel like Darth Vader when I listen to it, and I love it.

[noideamateee]

oh mate this song is so sick that it makes me wanna be a psycho

[graeme4prez]

love this song so much. love them.

[ahenriett]

is it just me,who gets horny while listening to this song??:D

[TheBakila]

Cold on my leather

[TheAndryTube]

This song hurts me, crushes my soul. I love it.

[realpinkfan]

gosh, this is kinda creepy (absolutely amazing though).. I need to listen to this in a total darkness. I'm convinced that would be fun xD

[musicformamp3]

This makes me wanna run fast as hell. Love it.

[Kakica84]

What an exquisite little piece of music!

[xXxskayaxXx]

They are the most amazing band,so elusive.They cut into nerves,and smooth away others like ketamine.

[DarkChrisHour]

earthborn, mud washed, and soon to find soul in soil. Powerful vibes, I have to keep at hearts length, or I dive too deep.

[xXxskayaxXx]

@DarkChrisHour

Is that a lyric from somewhere,or your own ruminating on this song?

Either way,it's very visceral,and great.

[DarkChrisHour]

@xXxskayaxXx

Just ramblings, something I felt hearing this. Thanks for your kind words.

I enjoyed your elusive (K) comment, and agree to the smooth numbing this provokes...

I had to come back and listen to it again, been slowly dripping into my soul all day.

[xXxskayaxXx]

@DarkChrisHour

Thanks,Chris...That is the feeling some oF their songs illicit in me,

atranscendental feeling,almost impossible to describe,hence the ketamine reference,

because that's what it does,takes one out of oneself and float,yet still be so acutely aware

of every shimmer.Tou put it very well,how they are ''dripping into your soul''...they do that ,too.

Simply,they are just magic.X

[DarkChrisHour]

@xXxskayaxXx Time past in a blur of smokey haze, the weeks passing felt like days, the pathes I followed guided by fate, I left behind the worlds weight, dirt under foot and in my soul, I laid back and lost control, returning home after the journeys end, a shattered body I must mend, I sit down to relax and this song came to mind, I listen to it now and see your welcoming words are kind.

I hope the pathes you walked the past weeks have been safe and warm, and your time as been full of smiles.

[dominiffa]

płuco.

[mrkhein99]

I have found my True Love.

[hotpink2rad]

[GrexornasTid]

heh,,,,cool staff

[JcFuentes85]

La electrónica BIZARRA.

[SaMoHi14]

"warned by the sun"

[swedish1muffin]

I can't get enough of this. I have a needle phobia but please, infuse this into my blood.

[XxDeathxKissxX]

This is so beautiful.

[LouisMorissette]

The knife is like a drug, It's the only music I can listen on repeat for years and dont get sick of it....

[iRock1305]

@LouisMorissette I get your point, it's the same with me. This and IAMX.

[robertethanvilay]

twisted. && eargasmiccc. the vocals are sooo freshhh & neww.

[Frenchie1992]

I love how the way they sing in this song reminds me of the recording of Sylvia Plath reading Lady Lazarus.

[formasses]

love this, love the knife*

[IxCANxHAZxCOOKIE]

@discoboytom you know a cute guy who loves the knife?! °0° OMJ!!!!!

[stills4589]

[poisonxdonut]

i love how weird they are..... oh my god amazing stuff ever!

[akellettsocal]

This is a good song. It makes me want make a harmonica out of a comb and waxed paper.

[akellettsocal]

I like this song. It makes me want to make a harmonica out of waxed paper and a comb.

[akellettsocal]

I like this song. It makes me want to make a harmonica out of waxed paper and a comb!

[SuperNson]

I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooo alternative when I listen to this.

[MikaMute]

@SuperNson LOL

[jascrystalspike]

best girl/guy duo since crystal castles

[darkixion89]

@jascrystalspike The knife did a long time ago music. Crystal Castles arent that old.

[LouisMorissette]

@jascrystalspike how is this comparable to crystal castles... gah! There is so much spiritual growth inside of me when I listen to the knife... CC is just some good songs to listen to on shuffle on your ipod.

[JT2D]

@robkapp77 No, I like Lady Gaga. I like whatever I decide I want to listen to, regardless of label or producer or whether they even have more than one good song. This isn't the case with about 90% of the people commenting here, who like it only because it's, as I said, OMG INDIE.

[robkapp77]

This isn't one of my favorite songs by them, but there's something about it - maybe the minimalist yet mesmerizing beat, maybe the simple but entrancing synths, maybe the fact that I want to swim in an ocean of Karin's voice - but once I put this on, I always know it's going to be a little while before I listen to anything else. The more I listen to them, the more I love them. And I think I just crossed the line into scary stalker fanatic territory.

[ravenousESP]

my favorite

[dan93al]

they have a very fresh style, and amazing lyrics but i just cant manage myself to like it...

[lorenzoschiavo]

in the lyrics written in the cd it's: ",, it' s not what you see cause i've got a twisted personality"...

btw

i would die for them... i love the knife!!!!

[CaliFaintFightz]

-.-

[kikuchiyo77]

You're looking for me, but it's not what you seek...

God, it's bjork split in half and then blended with awesomeness.

[cyborgschulte69]

they are so great like warmed by the sun

[JT2D]

I love all of the elitist indie fucks in the comments who think they're rad for liking such a OMGZ INDEE band like the Knife.

I like this song, not gonna squee about it though

[robkapp77]

@JT2D  I could care less that they're indie; I just love their music. I was listening to Lady Gaga earlier, for which I'm sure you'll judge me as well. I also listened to some Skinny Puppy as well as Barber's Adagio for Strings. Some people just appreciate good music.

Congratulations, though. You have proven yourself to be morally superior to all of us by making a complete ass of yourself.

[longhairrasta]

@JT2D technically this would not be indie. more along the lines of avant garde

[honeybeeman]

so scary, so good

[nonsensicalsense]

I just stumbled on The Knife and when I first heard this one I was a little iffy... but then I had to come back and hear it again- it gets addicting. Amazing group!

[Sethpopo]

It sounds like shes saying "and broken times fear me".

[sooxanne]

The best Duet ever, it's heavenly

[PointOfLight1]

Amazing! As always...

[JaRool]

triple c music.

[Snoiz]

Så jävla bra. Orginell text. Karin har en så "ful" egen röst.

Like it!

[Magdwaostboll]

OMG the voice reminds me of "vild vittrorna" in the astrid lindgren movie "ronia rövardotter" my biggest fear when i was a child! really sceary song,but oh so good!

[BjornDanick]

love it!

[gx450]

soo twisted yet i cant get enough!!

[TheOriginalWASTEMAN]

I can't get enough. It just doesn't get old. It's just amazing. AMAZING.

[maclarengtrm]

the stranger song if ever heard

[reiniervanbergen]

Fl studio XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[Uhanek]

brilliant!

[scooch2010]

great!

[owca19]

ART! love it

[wolvez2]

LMFAO

[mewchocolate1]

AWESOME<3

[ppec314]

I've never been as obsessed with a band...

[faster4tec]

FARK is all I can say....

I like the taste of their tongue

[OdSlatromEkil]

The word Brilliant just isn't enough.

[stampedeokoalas]

AWESOME

[reingp]

It creeps me out to listen in the deepest darkness, amazing what they did. There's nothing like this around there.

I love them. And about they're not relatively known. Well, I'm glad I do know them and it feels kinda exclusive to me, I like it.

[stills4589]

@reingp nothin wrong with exclusive. preferable in my opinion.

[filipecalpe]

this song deserves a theknifelike video... I figure it would be amazing!

[thebarefootexec]

Creepy, but I like it.

[gentlemanjp]

scary

[Catshaddow]

I think it's called "A Lung", 'cause the person is working like a lung for others. By sending out this energy of being in control, people will be drawn to her for security. She will be their "lung", breathing for them 'cause they're so lost. But she is too, therefore they will all walk in the dark. The only difference is that they have a leader, "A Lung".

And yes, it is "WARMED by the sun".

The sun could stand for the surface I think. So "the lung" has been warmed by the shallowness...

[podingtonbear]

wow that's deep

[Catshaddow]

Well... thank you.

[thepanicstops]

[ouchbalaboui]

This song is really good! It remind me some Radiohead's songs : Like Spinning Plates and Backdrifts

[ninjanun]

Funny thing I got into The Knife and Radiohead 'bout the same time. I think there's something in their appeal that triggers the same feelings from certain types of people.

[Xxmiss0stephaniexX]

hahahaha i love the knife and radiohead too lol i know exactly what your talking about ... just the sensation of warmth and safety while still making you slightly uneasy and cold i dont know how to describe what i feel when i listen to either... its amazing.

[redcommando1]

wow stephanie,will you marry me

[ninjanun]

That is a very apt way to put it. Exactly. You should review songs, very nice.

[sandrisia]

Love this song.. It´s so cool.

[hyperballad22]

i'm pretty sure they're saying "warmed by the sun"

and jolenaddy is right about that part too.

[TeabagTimmy]

Yeah the lyrics in this particular song are quite hard to catch, I updated the (???) part, though I'm not sure about the "warmed by the sun" one.

[Mudjin]

@TeabagTimmy

The lyrics are on the booklet of the cd and she says "warmed by the sun".

[Kailjiin]

i know the words and these are the proper ones

[jolenaddy]

The lyrics for that (???) part are:

"when the spark goes out of you

It grows ten times bigger in me

I am your lung"

[pdorap]

Great Song!:)

[Tomatis]
