Dear Record companies, If you're thinking of asking users to take down band's material on youtube, it's a dumb idea. Why? because I heard of this band, spent the morning surfing around youtube listening and now I'm about to buy everything they put out. Nuff said.

From 5:24 until the end of the song: One of the most brilliant moments on the entire album... Absolutely stunning and beautiful.

This song is my favorite song in the world

@jessicaisaliar I know what you mean - I had the chance to see them twice, and was forced to turn it down both times due to other commitments. I wish to hell and back that I hadn't now, truly miss them.

[umhewow]

This is honestly one of the best most powerful songs i've ever heard. One of my favorites!

[umhewow]

@jessicaisaliar True that, do you love Pink Floyd too? they make me feel too!

[jessicaisaliar]

this so makes me feel. i don't understand what i'm feeling, but i know it's different to everything else i've ever felt. thanks oceansize for at least giving me that. makes up for the terrible wrenching sadness i get when i know i'll never see you live.

@shaftahoy try counting it in minums rather than crotchets, seems to be a clearer pattern at the start of 4/2, 3/2 (6/4), 4/2. Then later you're right when the piano riff comes in and the drums are filtered it's straight 6/4 (3/2 the way I'm counting it) for 8 bars. Then when the vocals come back in it's straight 4/2 with a bar of 3/2 and the end of each phrase, same goes for the guitar bit that comes in afterwards ( 3 bars of of 4 and 1 of 3)

we can only hope that its a temporary split, because they composed such good music and had synergy on the stage :(

[moonpigs]

That song breakes my heart everytime I heart it and I still cannot fucking believe they split up... it makes me want to cry EVEN MORE. It's 5 a.m. and I am so sad and mad at the same time... gnaaaaar. Yea, I know. Get a life...

im in love with this song <3
