@artawesome30 and @thesuperswordmaster Sorry guys :P My brother spammed me xD I have never heard this song in my freagin' life. So whateva! Oh yeah, IMMA GIRL!!! Getcha facts right.
lol. i always had this awesome song stuck in my head, and whenever i sang it, my friend(who hadnt heard it before) kept telling me to shut up. so i sent it in an email. now its stuck in her head forever. >:D
If anyone was wondering this song relates to Plato's Allegory, i just happened to be studying this while i heard the song,it was actually really creepy.... but amazing song
Considering the history of the band it makes brilliant sense. The boys didn't own their own instruments before they released the Sigh No More album, so they had to borrow from other people until they got known and actually made money off their art. Further, it relates directly to the "Allegory of the Cave" by Plato that inspired the song... Brilliant work!
@BillyBlues34 I would say that Mumford and Sons is a breath of fresh air and a rare occurrence in modern music. It's genuine and honest, yet still simple in overall creation and execution. They play all their own instruments and make GREAT music. Yeah there was a lot of great stuff in the 80s... but come on. There is no way that anyone who actually appreciates music could dislike this.
I like this a little more than Little Lion Man, but Little Lion Man gets stuck in my head more. Anyway, this is so much better rap. My opinion. Free country. Deal with it.
If you are going to argue about rap vs. Mumford, please do it somewhere else- this is a Mumford and Sons song, and that is exactly what the comments should be about.
@peopole45 I agree one hundred percent guy. Rap is ok, but its become too flashy and too mainstream. We need more artists like this. And btw, Death Cab for Cutie is also real music too, give them a shot.
@XXRainbowWarrior I think you mean opinion. I do apologize though, my original comment was unnecessarily harsh. I was simply baffled as to how someone "doesn't get" this song. It's a pretty simple, lovely, message. But everyone is entitled to their opinion. I just wish that you would fully "get" the song before commenting on it and calling it a "piece of shit."
@GoxDinosaur I don't know, but it reminded me of the Beatles album cover Abbey Road where Paul was the only one walking across barefoot. I'm glad someone else wondered the same thing.
Its empty in the valley of your heart The sun rise slowly as you walk Away from all the fear And all the faults you left behind Theharvest left no food for you to eat Youcanibal you meat eater you see But I have seenthe same I know the shame in your defeat But I will hold on hope And I wont let you choke Onthe noose around your neck And ill find strength in pain And I will change myway ill know my name as its called again cuz i have otherthings to fill my time you take wuts urs and ill take mine
I love it all the good guys are ahting on the one guy who decides to trash a good video, that's called teamwork in a sense....? Whatever it's still awesome people banning together to defend that which they love :)
When i listen to this song i get happy. Happy because i know that all songs out there are not about sex and drinking and are not about making pathedic rap "songs". Mumford and Sons may be our last hope at real music that means something.
@peopole45 damn stop generalizing all rap. There is still good rap out there but you actually need to find it. I can easily name 5 rocks banks up the top of my head that suck. Does that mean all rock sucks??
@peopole45 just because rap doesn't mean something to you, doesn't mean it has no message to somebody else. until you can appreciate all music you won't know what "real music" is.
"Love at first sight"... just heard this song on the radio and checked it out on YouTube - what an awesome tune and the video is as perfect. The beauty of a wonderful song, that can captivate you and sing to your soul.
man...i have a lot of respect for these guys...they have just 2 acoustic guitars a mandolin or a banjo idk which one it is, but they also have a great singer with a simple drum set...to make music like that, takes talent.....
@npnnrtn I like to know what you consider a well-written song, then. This song is written about the teachings of Plato and his parable of "The Cave." (Hence the title of the song) It actually makes a lot of sense if you know the teachings of plato even barely.
I think its symbolism of the British Empire when they ruled over India influencing their culture. By saying this is yours they are saying that the country always belonged to its people. England left behind remnants of its influence when India was freed and perhaps it represents India (or any of their colonies) being able to take control of their own destiny because they are on their own.
The video is taken in Goa, an awesome place
