Haunting, beautiful song. Perfect as the theme for The Bridge, which was the best TV show I have seen in 20 years. Great to see and hear it performed live.
The Bridge and Rectify are the best shows I've ever watched. I've seen them both over and over and continue to pick up on more details. If you haven't seen it, Rectify is a series from the US about a man sent to death row at 18 for murder. It begins as he's being released after 20 years due to a wrongful conviction. Like The Bridge, it's intense, complex and beautiful, and with a great cast.
I'm always amazed when someone selects a track as the soundtrack for a series (in this case a damn good one!) and then the track gets picked up. Very nice memories and visual images (that bridge!) pop in my mind when i hear these cords.
The Bridge is repeated again here on the BBC and I can't believe it's nearly ten years since the first series ... at last I finally hear the whole song!
Thank you so much for your music, your unique intonation and tender melancholy. It makes me sad, that you can never make music again but as the lyrics go: "everything goes back to the beginning" - lets hope your music also continues like that.
hej, en hel fantastisk låt, hälsningar från Tyskland. Vi älsker Sverige och Danmark...bästa människor allihoppa. Varje gång jag åker över Øresunden ska jag lyssna till denna unika låt. En musikalisk dröm
I've become obsessed with this song! I watched all 3 seasons of The Bridge practically non-stop and had to find out more about this song. I've listened to it over and over and can't get enough of it! I wonder if they ever sing it in Danish? I can't believe this was from SXSW in Austin in 2010! I'll have to listen to more of their music. I signed up for a free month of Hulu for free to watch Prisoners of War, then The Bridge. Great stuff.
Wow. After well over a decade, I'm just now hearing a version different than the album. The breakdown was absolutely brilliant outside the recording studio. I'm so happy to find this video.
The tv series is the bomb. Season one is the greatest police gener, miniseries made. Dont know if u have to be scandinavian to enjoy it. But damn what a production. Any americans seen the original and enjoyed it?
What a perfect mix - I thought maybe we'd lose a bit of that soul stirring cello when the powerful bridge came into play. But no, all the instruments were in a yin and yang groove. Magic!
This is one of the most amazing songs ever written/performed. I was stunned by a deep house remix I heard in 2014 (which I am still trying to find - not the Lane 8 one) but this is obviously the inspiration behind that I am once again stunned beyond belief. Really good music can transcend into so many levels it's truly beautiful.
Series 4 is proving just as epic as the previous series's love this programme and this wonderful tune is used brilliantly the slow dark opening credits and the fast climatic ending after a cliffhanger
Saw them support Mew, then saw them in a very small room above a pub in I think it was Stockport (near Manchester). Can't believe they're not a well known band
Just finished binge watching the first three seasons of The Bridge (Bron/Broen) on Prime Video. Looking forward to Season 4. My bridge to The Bridge was the Swedish version of Wallander.
Lyrics Echoes start as a cross in you Trembling noises that come to soon. Spatial movement which seems to you Resonating your mask or feud. Hollow talking and hollow girl Force it up from the root of pain. Never said it was good, never said it was near Goes back to the beginning. Shadow rises and you are here. And then you cut You cut it out And everything Goes back to the beginning. Silence seizes a cluttered room Light is shed not a breath too soon. Darkness rises in all you do Standing and drawn across the room. Spatial movements are butterflies Shadows scatter without a fire. There's never been bad, there has always been truth Muted whisper of the things she'll move. And then you cut You cut it out. And everything Goes back to the beginning. Never said it was good, never said it was new Muted whisper of the things you feel
It was incredible television Rod. Why can`t British TV make anything that good. How do you feel about Saga and what she did to Martin? Really shocking.
Heard this song for the first time at the end of an episode of Californication. Had to instantly hunt it down and found this beautiful live performance! Thank you so much to whomever for posting it!! Thank you!
Смотришь сериал, каждый раз слушаешь саундтрек, в голове рисуется образ исполнителя. И тут зашёл поглядеть, а он вообще другой!))) Но очень круто, конечно, зачёт!👍
