All alone on the ferris wheel Looking down on the world I hate so much I was waiting For the day you and I would meet I sat up straight in the sunbeams, and they burned me I opened the window meant just for me I was waiting For a day like that to come here Even reaching out my hands It's an age that gives no rewards A future that gives no salvation Peals of my laughter would come at just a kiss with you In the footsteps of those who have gone before I want to chant, with my swimming head, A blessing with that ineffectual charm I've just one ally And that is you If I were to keep my eyes open They'd be hurt By the wind which pierces the night Peals of my laughter would come at just a kiss with you The two of us Dreamt at the same time Of an age reborn A future with a rainbow hung in the sky At just a kiss with you, I came to tears I was waiting For the day you and I would meet.
True, but the real problem is that there weren't enough really good songs on some of their later albums; a lot of the songs were just okay, so the albums turned out pretty mediocre overall. The last couple albums ("Stroll and Roll" and "Nook in the Brain") have been pretty consistent, though.
@@therelwozmaniak6551 Stalker Goes to Babylon is a wayyyy old song, it definitely wasn't on a new album unless they redid it. I'm almost 30 now and I remember hearing that song when I was 13. I also didn't like it.
I remember seeing these guys live. It was basically FLCL live and I loved it XDDD Their encore was Little Busters and the bassest and guitarist from All Ages joined them. Good times
This song makes me feel glad to be alive and love music. Thanks The pillows. This is a piece of art, it doesn't matter the lenguage, i can feel chills listening to it. Music its the greatest thing in life, and this song, is one of the greatest songs in music.

Shut up, 17 year old me. You DID technically grow up with this music when it was most important to you (ages 13 to 22) and what's more, you ended up letting it move you towards learning Japanese. But yeah, still the greatest band of all time; I'll give you that.
Holy crap! I've liked the pillows for years and watched this video more than once, but only just realised Sawao is wearing a British Civil Defence Corps armband at 2:44. I have one of those, I'll treasure it even more now that I know Sawao had one.
So sad I missed the last time they toured since I was a poor teen but if I find out they come back to the US for a tour as an adult im going for sure ❤❤❤
this song makes me feel relaxed and calm. it fills me with inspiration. Ive been a fan for about 6 years. i always go back go listening to them randomly. they help me forget the world for a moment and get lost in my imagination.
I'm getting shivers man from the sheer awesomeness of this riff alone. YOUR ONLY CRIME is not spreading FLCL and The Pillows to the world over as I'm only finding this out right now !The tragedy! the horror of looking back all that lost youth spent without FLCL and the pillows !!
Their music is just so great, whenever I feel bad or alone, they completely lift me back up, and whenever I'm not feeling bad their music is just good and beautiful. I recommend these guys for any mood.
This band will always bring a smile to my face. Such good times when discover this band and one of my favorite anime’s of all time. Much love from America ❤️
