this is one of the saddest tunes i've ever heard... this song is one of the best methods to force bursting into tears, dude, this band is utterly brilliant
Fuck. This is their best song. I almost lost my mind last week when they played this live. It scares me to death that I could listen to this song over and over and never get sick of it, ever!
I know this isn't their most popular song on "the radio" but definitely my favorite. I want to "make money like Fred Astaire. " maybe "slide some shards under the belly" but love the "Black Temptress of the Sea you treat me right" lyric
I love how in this tune the singer is a lover. Firstt he present's his love later he persuits her, and finish her with an invite. so much love in one song.
Epic song!! saw them 2 week in Manchester and this tune really brings out the best in Daniel Kessler, amazing guitar and fantastic footwork, What a band!
@adrianofromtheouters cazzo ci manca......pochi giorni prima di sparire eravamo assieme a ridere.....non riesco a dire altro!le lacrime copriranno ......grazie!sei un amico....
@PosieDada Boy, opinions can't be false. Who was your english teacher? I'd like to smack the hell out of them for letting you get the notion that an opinion is not a point made on perspective, but rather something concrete like a fact. Do you see how ignorant you are? Someone could say babies are annoying, and the argument could go both ways. Think before you type.
Song is beautiful... Kudos Interpol. Wish I could make music like this and evoke such emotions out of people as this song does for me... Brilliant, really.
@worldcitizenforever They May be better but Interpol is better too. I don't even know why you're here like watching this video.. e__e Like get out if you think they're gay you faggot..
@worldcitizenforever They may be better bot Interpol is better too so shut the fuck up and get out of here i don't know why you're watching this if you don't like it, you faggot..
Chill dudes, its a great song, but the greatest song ever? People always pronounce a song "greatest song ever" and the next day a completely other song is the best song eva. Why even bother? Lets hope the best song will never be made, so that artists may forever try to make it.
This song is in its own league agreed but seems to be alot of miss-interpretation going on here. This song is about infidelity and the prospect of surviving is futile. The ship represents new love which eventually falls to the temptations of the sea(world)(temptresses). Hes singing as the perpetrater of infidelity between other couples " Im the scavenger between the sheets of union" Machines being the new shiney love that doesnt turn or change anyone eventually. Brilliantly written id say
Paul Banks said this song is about a well-educated, classy man who falls in love with a cocktail waitress on a cruise. He gave a little bit of feedback in an interview about Antics. I just read about it.
@entertainer106 Paul has been known to talk alot of shit to put a simpleton meaning to some of his lyrics for mainstreamers. If you think thats what hes writing about than kudos we all have an opinion
It's hard to tell which of interpol's songs is my fav, but, I'm sure it's between this one and Leif Erikson...
"along away, the sea will crowd us like lovers at night.." wow, that line, that F...ing line is just poetry at it's highests levels!!! My fave band along with Doves...
hah @alex6544onPS3, same here :3 i can never have a permanent favorite song cause i love them all :D i mean , am i right? well then again thats just my opinion :p
I love when the vocals overlap around 2:25 its such a lush feeling, some of their music feels like it is washing over you, like its enveloping you with its velvety luxuriance, Black temptress of the sea you treat me right
everyone shut up fuck and enjoy the nute, i mean tune
