the moment i heard this song, i connected. So much passion. so much emotion. iv only heard this song twice now and i can already tell it will forever be one of my favorites,
This pretty much describes one of the lowest points in my life. Some people have real problems, but that pain was the worst I've ever felt. I still love her.
Has to be one of the best songs ever written. I saw them play it live in The Cockpit, Leeds, an it was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I defy you show me a song any x-factor produce that inspires the kind of emotions this song does. Outstanding music, the way it should be.
Its funny the first time I heard this song was on the radio 2 years ago and it was like right after I went through the EXACT same thing the song was about... its a very real song, we all go through this.
My friend got the first few lyrics tattooed on her back and i had noo idea what it was so i had to look it up.. realized i know this song and now feel stupid for not knowing what it was!
@BlueLii33 Hey, that's just his kind of music. Not everyone likes the same stuff :) I personally like everything, but some people just like that spewing shit on the local pop/rap station.
know what annoys me about this band, their name. when i got recommended these, i thought they would be some shit american band. but then i actually listened to them, and there was this voice and lyrics and rawness and meaning! i think if they had a different name, they would be liked by more people. just sayingggg
There must be some sort of mistake on this song because I have observed a dislike button right under the screen. Please take imediate action to fix this problem.
From Wikipedia: The song is autobiographical, about the night that lead singer Mikel Jollett met a former girlfriend while out at a bar, during which he discovered that he still loved her. The entire band was present during this event. The lyrics to the song were written in isolation by Jollett over the course of the next three days
I didn't like this song when it came out because I never really listened to it and they played it over and over until I got sick of it. A year later, I'm in love with it!
I realized the true beauty of this song while listenening with my 10 yr old daughter...she belted out the verse ...you just have to see her, you just have to see her.......... love it!
A lot has been going on lately. I heard this song and immediatly started letting out what I've been holding in by crying. I played it again and I stood up, dried my tears and decided I couldn't be like this forever. This band is inspiration.
And it starts sometime around midnight or at least that's when you lose yourself
for a minute or two. As you stand under the barlights and the band plays some song about forgetting yourself for a while and the piano's this melancholy soundcheck...
finaly a unique song where not one word repeats and they're no verses. Very talented and clever song here, absolutely love it. Must have listened to it ten times in a row.
The correct lyric is "cross," not "crux." She's holding it in front of her either for protection or for inspiration...a prop that is covering her true feelings.
@FormCritic I think its more of a gesture of innocence, a guise. To everyone else in that room she's just a sweetheart, but to the two involved, her intentions are evident...
@FormCritic I think its more of a gesture of innocence; a guise. To everyone else in that room she's just a sweetheart, but to the two involved, her intentions are evident...
Anytime a song can evoke such emotion in so many different people, you know that the artist has just created a masterpiece! Truly in tune with the feelings we, as humans, experience as one. Wonderful song.
I seem to be drawn to songs that have violins playing in the background. Bittersweet Symphony is another good example. It gives it a unique, somber sound! Great lyrics in this song!
Wow that's ironic. I'm surprised to find that this song has found its way into so many peoples lives, haha. I would agree in that its not the happiest song out there.
If you don't feel anything when you hear this, you've obviously never had your heart broken.
