ps, listen to heard it on the grapevine acoustic live on JJJ.. OMG, you want goodness... you'll get it,, such a intense version, you'll love it... or not. If you don't, I don't want to hear about it, disliking all negative comments to this band... Get your own band & compare, just not here!
Such a fantastic song, last week live you performed it superbly... It was a brilliant night, every song you played was excellent,, all sad comments can stay where they are, your above that now...you showed us just how good you are, ,, soo glad got to see you at a intimate gig, Fabulous indeed!! Feel stoked still even now.. Thank you & cheers to a brilliant night!
i have loved birds of tokyo since i first heard their music right back in the beginning before they became more mainstream and will continue to love them forever.
This song is that feeling you get in your soul that you get when you seem to be losing grip on someone you held so dearly to your own but you find that haunting comfort and confusion in knowing you cant change it when two paths travel unravel and separate and your back to square one, love is bitter sweet we have all felt it. We are all human and i hope more music like this is made it feeds my soul with memories.
@quinsland88 me too. did a search for it... because the radio station didn't announce the title.. all I could remember was 'no sweet return'.. gotta love google..
@Samanthajane163 its about a guy who has missed all the things in his life when he was younger and is regretting it. with the lyrics "look back on a distand border, i fear im getting older, so much that i missed" so thats why hes playing with all the kids stuff, trying to catch up what he missed out on
@LtWolfie oh okay so i'm a douche because i wrote that comment, you obviously misinterpreted it. here let me explain it to you. what i mean is that once a song becomes 'big' or 'mainstream' it just loses that originality, it becomes 'radio music'. therefore you don't enjoy it much, it becomes overplayed and you hear it fucking everywhere then you become sick of the song. so if you ask me, i don't think my comment makes me a douche or a hipster, but i think yours makes you look like an idiot.
@punjuice and what if its popular because its original? -.- something becoming dosent make it lose originality.... its when other bands all do the same, that thier songs become unorignal, dosent change the original song
one of their best songs :)

Amazing song, definitely one of my favourite ones.
Although Birds of Tokyo originated from Perth, Western Australia (where I also live).
Anyway, so why not actually do the music video here somewhere in Perth instead of this American scenery.
If you have a look at the other videos... eg Wild at Heart, thats certainly not done in Australia.
I find it disappointing that they are Australian (I presume) yet its broadcasted in America.
Great song anyway.

an amazingly beautiful and emotive song, matched with an equally touching video clip. the intensity and emotion always manages to move me.
