me and my family (mostly sisters) always fight about music. whenever they are with me, i always try to show them more music i know they don't listen too. this was the first one. they both said they didn't want to hear it because they didn't like it. but i said, "you've never heard it before, how can you say you don't like it?" then they shut up and listened to it. they loved it and it is one of their favorite songs now! <3
I know the official lyric is SUN but to me it is SON.... it gives so much more meaning to pearls story. like she is missing him and hurting thats why she is a bit evil
@jeanandava yeah thats what I thought too the first time! and "a thousand nights gone" could be "nights" or "knights" (though I think it's "nights")... cool how no matter how you mix it up the lyrics still work. interchangeable :)
@SevenTEleven They're fans of Scott Walker so I doubt they care too much about chart topping. It would be nice if the masses had good taste... but look what happens when they do, now everyone is playing MGMT and it kind of ruins it. Listening to em gave me an exhilarated feeling. It's like songs have soul or spirit and once the masses get a hold of one they just drain it of it's vitality..
Crikey! I just heard this album for the first time- a friend lent me a copy. Mark my words- this album will be known years from now. Think of Kate Bush's 'Hounds Of Love'. You all know that masterpiece- and so will you know this work.
If you think of it as "son" instead of "sun"- the song starts to sound like it's about Lady Jessica from Dune- especially with the references to the desert's sighing and all of that.
I think it could be either way - son/sun, knight/night. I did think perhaps the whole love-is-a-battle thing; with a thousand knights gone, to a new kingdom I run: no strength left with her love, so she has to move on. But Natasha Khan isn't normally that cheesy, she's more elusive than that, so I really don't know. But I think the spelling does work either way, they both add different dimensions to the song.
Good song, but a bit too near to Kate Bush "Running up that Hill" on the old chorus...., drums are very close.., and various other Kate Bush tracks for that matter...
It's a great shame... BFL's distinct sound gets my heart racing and makes me tingle and shiver all over; yet they'll never achieve a number 1 single/album because the general public listen to poo music like, '' we are the cheeky girls, lick my bum, it's very nice'' (with some foreign accent...) and actually decither that it's good music :/
