There is a lot of crying on this video's comments, haha, sorry no disrespect, just felt SOME levity was in order, Emm you have been constant on my ipod the last few months :)
this song often makes me cry, or want to... Usually i'm crying by the end. Very powerful writing and performance. i can't imagine this doesn't deeply touch a lot of women.
At the end of the flick one week... when ben gets out of the cab after his journey and his family is standing there at the front of the house..... and this song is playing i tear up every time... cant figure out why....
6 months ago I would have said Nina without hesitating, but Gyner's version has really grown on me and now I dunno. I think I have to give it to Gyner.
The combination of the video, the poetry with its haunting image of black, and the powerful references to destiny all contribute to the beauty of Emm gryner's song.
I spoke with Emm recently and she told me this song was inspired by the Film "Thirteen" starring Holly Hunter and Rachel Evan Wood. One line in particular "I role my green sleeves over ruby" is a direct reference to the scene where one character Tracey, pulls her long-sleeved top down to hide the deep cuts she's been inflicting upon her arms.
It is a truly beautiful song and the video captures it's haunting qualities perfectly.
Her songs all sound the same and always full of cliches.

I listen to this song when I am sad. It had always brought me more tears, but solace at the same time. A peace I cannot describe. Still like it.

Nina Persson's version edges it. Emm sounds like Annie Lennox where Miss Persson sounds like an angel. Thats how i feel
