@Gladiator19951 like a bruise or contusion. A bruise is caused by breaking small capillaries or veins and the result is the mixture of colors such as red and blue. Bruises usually involve pain, and trauma to a certain area of the body, i think the metaphor is that jose has sustained trauma to the heart and he is in pain and the metaphorical result are the colors red and blue.
i dont know whether i prefer this of the refined version, i like the rawness of this but obv the other one sounds better :) but theyr both awesome and so is the knife version
I totally agree with you, I can hear this song over and over again, it fills me with this wonderful feeling, some sort of emotion, which I can't describe or define. Like I've fallen in love with someone
I totally agree with you, it's kinda sick, i can hear the song over And over, it fills me with this wonderful feeling, some sort of emotion, which I can't describe or define. Like I've fallen in love with someone
If you ever get a chance to see a surf film Called The Drifter starring Rob Machado in Indonesia this song and the surfer/villagers complement each other brilliantly. Very amazing song
Reminds me that all I have experienced with you was all to good to be true, & I see your balls bounce away in the sunset knowing it's ok if you've changed into one of another heartbeat, for you gave me your very best, & that's something I will forever believe in, though it's gone with the strum...
i love how people are like "yeah the knife wrote it, no josé gonzalez wrote it!" Now i know that the knife wrote it, but who cares? Both The knize AND José are from Sweden ;D
cool Idea for a coversong but the voice is Way better when Karin Dreijer Andersson sings it :-) (would be cool if the knife itself makes an acoustic version of that song)
When I listen to this song... it takes me somewhere... somewhere where I feel so good and warm... After 30sec I stop dreaming.. Think of how World is just great... And begin to cry... ( Im not EMO, It just gives me so good memories and such a warm feeling..)

Bad words below. warning
This man is a gay? This man is a faggot. This song is for that girl singer. Why is there a market for shitty productions? You better not sing. You better keep that penis in your mouth. That is my ugly opinion. Thank you.
Lol, I was looking for this song, and i remembered that there were balls falling down a street. So I typed in google : "balls falling down from street commercial" first in english (no real result) then later in my own language. And guess what.. the first link was IT XD.
Would everyone PLEASE get over it. Yes The Knife's wrote the song, it's a great song, and it was covered by Jose Gonzalez in another unique form. Both versions of the song are great, but they're different. And depending on your preference of music, is going to alter your opinion on which song you like best. Just keep in mind, no matter what, the song itself, is amazing.-peace<3
@smokedmonkeys yes, "unique". As in "Being the only one of its kind; unlike anything else". Just like opera is unique, screamo, classical, baroque etc. This is Jose's unique version of the song. So what, it sounds like humming to you, you see nothing of it. But to others, the way he plays and sings the song adds more emotion. And singing the way he does is A LOT harder than you think. But like I said before depending on your preference of music, is going to alter your opinion on what you like.
The dog at 1:58 was probably put off balls forever. I bet when his owner shows him a bouncy ball he just goes "Don't even go there, you don't know what is was like man, don't be an enabler"
I thought that I heard this song too much. That it would not touch me anymore like it did. And now, after a while, I've searched for it again. And again, it fills me with this wonderful feeling, some sort of emotion, which I can't describe or define. Like I've fallen in love with someone I don't know yet, someone I still have to find. But she's out there.
@TheAntiChr1st Really touching but unfortunately with a name like Antichrist i can only hope it's not the kind of love you find on the news a few days after "the incident"
@TheAntiChr1st Greatly said... everytime I hear the same sweet tones I get the exact same feeling... it's truly amazing. It's slightly giving me this sort of thought... I start wondering why I'm living, right now. And then I hear this song... it all fades back into dark. Amazing... this song is amazing.
The Knife are a bigger name, just that Gonzalez had a bit of promotion through the Sony advert. But don't be mistaken, the knife would be higher on the billing if both acts played a show.
honestly, i love the knife's original. its fucking amazing. but this song is a completely different genre, and jose gonzales does a GREAT job making that transition. kudos to him, this is very nice to listen to.
This song is just a normal song, whereas knive's version thrills me. I swear it gives me a kick. Not only "Heartbeats" but all their songs. I love "You take my breath away" - especially the moment she/he sings: "I heard you for the first time on a radio..." - the way she/he changes his/her voice is just amazing.
More - I like "Bird", "Rock Classic", "Pass this on", and many more.
Totally agree the original of this is much better. A few of the new Fever Ray songs are good as well. You probably already know one of the two girls from The Knife has gone solo - if you haven't heard it check out 'Fever Ray' - 'when i grow up', its absolutely amazing...
I know what you mean, i prefer this version. in my eyes (and ears) he completely rewrote the song, made it his own. the two versions stand along completely
I freaked out when I heard his voice in Red dead redemption ... Jose is amazing!
