i've always looked at this song like this; it's a sick world, so in order to not go insane you have to be stupid enough not to understand it... that makes sence to me :]
it's not sane to follow schemes or already written paths or just do the same all your life because someone may think you're fool and laugh at you and have in turn just unhappiness
so being fool and doing the things you want to is an help to keep happy and sane
One of the best songs from a swedish band. Even if I hate the band I love this song. Didn't even know that the rest of the world had heard it until i looked att the comments..
Well! I've been searching this song for ages! I mean, I'm 17 now , and I remembered only the colour of his hair and nothing else. So I told this to my older sister and she found out this song! I always listened to it when I was very young!!!! Love it! <3
@lupettoanda90 Si anche io ero piccola...ora ho 20 anni... ma questa canzone spesso la canticchiavo ma non riuscivo a ricordare ne chi la cantasse o quale fosse il titolo.
grandissima canzone, erano piú di 3 anni che la cercavo dopo di averla sentita a la radio, poi su spotify ho messo la radio ed é uscita miracolosamente, questa canzona mi riempi di energie xD
@edoNCG dovrebbe esserci un sistema almeno che ti fa vedere solo tot spot pubblicitari per ogni IP ! a che serve rincoglionire uno con lo stesso spot ogni video...
I want "it takes a fool to remain sane" tattooed on my arm.
I could have seem their last concert live but I didn't because I was busy that night.. I'm not a big Ark fan at all, but I regret it. I would like to hear this song live.
I just love that line. It means so much. It takes a fool to remain sane. So true.
@kashmir053 I´ve always liked them, but i´ve never REALLY listened to them. But then, they formed 20 years ago and i´m only 17 ^^
And this song is really good live. I heard it in Växjö (my hometown) on a free (!!) gig and he made us sing 'Do, do, do, what you want to do. Don´t think twice, do what you have to do. Do, do, do, let your heart decide, what you have to do' over and over and over again with the words on 2 screens :D It was amazing!
Jag såg deras avskedskonsert på Gröna Lund och grät nästan under Olas tal när de skulle spela den här sången. När de gjorde det grät jag på riktigt.
I saw their goodbye concert at Gröna Lund and almost cried during Ola's speech when they were about to play this song. When they did, I really did cry.
Saw them live for the first time this summer and I knew I had to do it again. I was there yesterday to say goodbye to Sweden's best band. This is what makes me proud to be swedish <3
I have never liked this genre, but it's the voice and the tune that wins me over. It's goddamn superb. This one song is perhaps the only one of it's genre that I like.
dum parents dum society system wich drinks our blood with many many hours of work for low payment, and stealing what we have left of humanity, dignity and so on..
we are not SUBJECTS we are humens with emotion...
try to assemble that in c++ "emotions"...rich ppl really think this is SIMS online or something. like that computer game, and this is where it all collapse and one day u ppl understand like me :D
I can't stop loving this song, the lyrics are so true! Everybody should just follow The Ark's spirit and just be themselves. In the end who cares about what everyone else do, it is your life and your choice! (btw love ola's expression in the begining, he really do look insecure, nothing like he is today!) <3
@SocialistMetalHead You clearly didn't catch the meaning of the song. "It takes a fool to remain sane", he wasn't a sane person, he was an insane person. Still, may he have a hell!
@Dante95devil : questo lo so, Difatti io mi riferivo all' eccentrico modo di vestirsi del gruppo del quale abbiamo tratto ispirazione al pride quest'anno. Niente da eccepire ai gusti del cantante e del gruppo. L'intelligenza e la civiltà fanno apprezzare OGNI tipologia di persona ed essere vivente, OGNUNO degno di Vivere a modo proprio.
Thumbs up if you're not Swedish. (I'm swedish, just want to see how many people outside Sweden listen to this song)
