Cut Copy - Standing Up Sitting Down

[runnerjoe2324]

This is my shit...

[ExpertiseGamer]

"I looked at our house, where I had spent so many years in my search for God; in fasting in order to hasten the coming of the Messiah; in imagining what my life would be like. Yet I felt little sorrow. I THOUGHT OF NOTHING. "Get up! Count off!" STANDING. COUNTING OFF. SITTING DOWN. STANDING UP AGAIN. On the ground once more. ENDLESSLY. We waited impatiently to be fetched. What were they waiting for. At last the order came: "Forward march!"

-from Night, Elie Wiesel

@ExpertiseGamer well that about ruins the 'fun' of the song

[banger181]

@ahpap who cares where the lyrics came from...

[Vanilladownhill]

@ExpertiseGamer it makes total sense with the music and make the song a great tribute to these sweet words

[ExpertiseGamer]

I only just realized that he got the lyrics for this song from 'Night' by Elie Wiesel.

[ExpertiseGamer]

And why is this song so little known?

[ExpertiseGamer]

I love this guy's voice.. So monotonous, and he says the same thing over and over:

Standing.

Counting off.

Sitting down.

Standing up again.

Standing.

Counting off.

Sitting down.

Standing up again.

There needs to be a music video for this... so intense.
