Regardless of the fluctuating interpretations of this song, people from varying paths of life are able to relate it to their personal experiences. A distinct lyric-universality remains constant in many of VNV nations songs.
I love applicability. I am a trans* woman, and this songs hits me like a freight train. I cannot even being to explain how much I connect to this music. Thank you, guys. You are a light in the dark, and balm for my soul.
Had a sereve workplace accident and the guy that took care of me was a great friend to three years before it happend. This song was going through my head constanly. I just wanted everything to stop and just love the moment
This is such heavenly melodic bliss. Not easy to accomplish when the genre is techno. The musicians have to rise to the occasion like Ronan often does. + Real nice guy, he is. Going the request route thru the internet. You have to make adjustments for that.
I emailed Ronan and Mark a few years back requesting they play this song.during their L.A. appearance. I explained that I would not be attending the concert due to the fact I was tending to my girlfriend's recovery (she had a series of strokes in 2006). Whether they played the song or not didn't matter, but the fact Ronan took the time and emailed me back brought me to tears. This is my favorite VNV Nation song and it best says how I feel towards my girlfriend then and now.
@DominickGeneric True, but wanting to curb stomp them for it also falls under the heading of 'mental disorder'. wishing to do doing violence to others because they have a mental disorder or are different means; in my opinion, that you have a mental disorder.

Ok ok update... I have a new-looking Stealth RT and just upgraded to a real nice stereo system that kicks, I think it will be at a great for the background VNV ambiance. Now it will be for a warm sunset evening sometime this summer =) Thanks for the support all!
My most favorite VNV Nation song! I plan to propose to my girlfriend while my car is in the background playing this song, on a calm night on a big hill overlooking the city. Wish me luck.
hahahahaha, So I guess it's time for the long awaited and maybe anticipated update that I've been asked for a few times here on Youtube.... and the update is... ... ... hmmmm time for a little fun I think...
A) How many Youtubers out there think i was rejected on my proposal?
B) How many Youtubers out there think I am now engaged?
C) How many Youtubers out there think I wussed out?
D) How many Youtubers out there think I am not with her any more?

OK OK, here it is.. VNV drum roll please... YES it all worked out, and she did in fact say "yes"!!! in fact we've been married since last July, and it going well, thanks for all your support VNV fans! WE ALL ROCK!! =)
VNV Nation is quite possibly one of the most motivational and inspiring bands out there. This song saved my life about 6 years ago... I owe VNV Nation alot. Long live VNV Nation!
I have to say that I'm always impressed by VNV Nation's music, and this is one of my favorite to listen to. It makes me both sad and happy, as his voice displays such a melancholy but optimistic voice. It is awe inspiring, listening to such amazing music and lyrics. Thank you VNV Nation!

If she says "yes" be sure to tell the VNV Nation guys about it. I think they would be happy to know their role in all that.
