This is probably the twentieth time I've replayed this song, and it's the most beautiful song I've ever heard. David Sylvian has a way of describing complexity of human condition, in a way that is incredibly poetic and pure. His voice and melodies are so haunting, and the words stand strong as he uses the space in between the notes. He's talented and gifted and truly an artist. I have a lot of admiration and respect for this man. He brings clarity and magic where life becomes abstract.
Satellite radio showed this. My mom and I arrived home in the late night, and this barely began playing. We stayed and listened to it for a little while. Thanks satellite.
What an amazing curriculum... You must be happy to take a class like that.
I didn't really love this song when the album had released, I was too young to understand this deepness. But now I appreciate whole of this song and sound :)
at school we had to read a short story about a boy who loved David Sylvian's music and especially this song; i became curious and had to check who this Sylvian was... so that's what brings me here. i love this, really beautiful.
This song is hauntingly brilliant. Every time I hear, I get that sensation of simultaneous happiness, regret, introspection, and hope. David's music does that to you. His music has always been very cerebral. It is difficult to fathom bettering this, but he did exactly that with "Secrets of the Beehive". David gave us a preview of his cerebral music writing earlier with the group Japan, and that preview was the song "Ghosts". I love this man....I love his genius.
in the cold, cold, ambiance of early 80s Edmonton...some memories are so warm, so full of the promise of everything that was to follow... such prescient richness... beyond wholesomeness and forlornness... and here we still are. Pure joy.
On of the most personal song ever written. But it is exactly that personal nature of the song that makes it so strong and appealing. It is truly personal for the listener as much as the performer.
muziek moet je voelen het moet je raken vanbinnen. en hij slaagt daar nog steeds in. jaren geleden heb ik hem live gezien, zo'n mooie trip heb ik nooit meer gemaakt.
wat een stem heeft die man. daar word je gelijk verliefd op.

Oh, wow. I am stunned.

O... I still feel the same when hearing this... Masterpiece... as I guess, back then, it is more than twenty years ago. Beyond Great. It leads me to feeling silent, humble, surrendering... to Life... Enigma... the Brilliant Trees... Neverending... Just. plain Brilliant.
This song is soooo beautiful I feel like I,m having a spiritual experience every time I hear it. Your filmclip is perfect for this song. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Tis is magical.
i remember long ago when i obtained this album. It overwhelmed me and really made me think about things that i never usually dwell on. A brilliant work of music if u ask me x
He definitely is a Genius, although I have to say that many of his solo stuff in my point of view indulge too much in melancholy (and I am usually a friend of this emotion...). The freshness of Japan, the surprises and also the fragility of their Music is what I am missing here a bit. This on the other hand might sound more mature, but somehow it feels to one-dimensional to me emotionally.
@dustinzk I love yr comments man... Manafon is a most def a failure but the thing is - do we stick this guy? Oh Yeah... I refer you to yr opening comment... So many of us are in exile... lets not do it to him too? Respectfully w 114
man i get what you say but, hasn't he always been a bit ahead of the rest of us? i am not crazy about much of his recent stuff, but he was the reason my ears got opened to real music in the first place. his entire career has been predicated on being 5 years ahead of eveyone else, has it not? X
@Wittegnstein114 I accept it's pretty weird and probably offputting to fans of Sylvian's more melodic stuff. I guess I've been listening to 'difficult' stuff for years, so it's easier for me to get into. Cheers and happy listening
you think 'brilliant trees' is 'one-dimensional... emotionally'? you can't be serious, surely? i get what you say about japan: i love them too. but how can you not love this?
I have listened to David Sylvian for near on 30 years now and the listening experience is just as rewarding today as it was all those years ago. Brilliant Trees the album/cd is my most treasured piece of music which introduced me to the world of possibilities.
@jellybeafter I respect your views,but i think he is better than this. Only wish more people would open their ears to his music, it has kept me going since the 80,s
1984, a key turning point in my own evolution. Age 15 I bought the album from the import section & submerging myself in the exquisite cover photography of Yuka Fujii & hand-written liner notes I delayed as long as possible putting the record in & closing the lid of the linear tracking turntable: I was crushed! I would never forgive this betrayal. By the 5 or 6th listening I was no longer smoldering & felt strangely possessed. I listened only to Brilliant Trees only for the next 2 months.
When this album came out, I remember sitting down and listening to it with a few friends... and during this song we all fell silent... did not utter one sound... and were all reduced to tears.
That says it all. . .thank you. . What resonance, what warmth, that voice & the words - all of it - and seeming security midst a new understanding of things. .. and after all these years. . its so great to listen too.
kenny wheeler (great jazz trumpet & flugelhorn player) played flugelhorn on the brilliant trees album. as any fule kno. that's what gave it its distinctive sound, it's lower and softer than the trumpet.
As a naturally analytic and critical person, I must make a comment that stands in contrast to those of a similar nature, if not a similar open-mindedness... this music not only brings back memories, but brings back moisture to dry eyes, a sweet sadness to my memories of forgotten times, and an untainted remembrance of lost friends. I am truly moved.
I couldn't have said it better myself. But I can never forget those lost times and friends. Thank God for Sylvian. One of the few artists who has moved me so deeply for most of my life...Never a dry eye when I hear him.
Thanks for sharing, it is good to hear from somebody who is obviously a kindred soul.
I think what I love so much about Sylvian's work is not only the emotion it evokes in people, myself included, but more importantly how it brings like minded people together.
Sylvian has certainly played with some great established muscians, if you like the background trumpet played by Jon Hassell, take a listen to Fourth world Possible Musics,
I understand it was the era of the music, but my only criticism would be the synth horn section. It would have sounded much better as either strings or a real brass section. So far, For the Love of Life is still my favorite Sylvian. I discovered him from the anime Monster of all things.
The melody, instrumentalization, lyrics and Sylvian's voice make this song one of the most haunting pieces of music ever recorded.
