"Clear" is Bomb the Bass' masterpiece. Every song is so different from each other, yet they blend perfectly. I love all BTB albuns, but Clear is wonderful from begin to end.
I FUCKEN LOVE THIS ALBUM SINEAD O'CONNOR DID AND THERE HAS BEEN NO OTHER LIKE IT CALLOBORATIONS IT IS A GEM AND IT HAS WOKEN THE GOD/GODDESS UP IN ME IT'S WONDERFUL
she was pure fire and women like her are more persecuted than appreciated....be careful this world says it wants strong women but then bash them. I am a living example and so was Sinead. it is a hard life to be strong in this world full of plastic people!
I was disappointed that when the song played in Bodkin's credits they cut the song before the 'for now on I'll call you England' lyric. I can understand why, but still. Fair play that they used it anyway. Sinead's a legend.
Just heard this randomly from Bodkin credits on Netflix and I'm so surprised how slept on it is. Probably the messaging I guess, but the song is incredible.

Estoy mirando tu alma, tu alma, tu alma, tu alma Estoy mirando tu futuro, tu futuro, futuro, futuro Mientras te miro a los ojos, estos ojos, estos ojos, estos ojos Veo otro lado, lado, lado, lado Vampiro, te alimentas de la vida de un corazón puro Vampiro chupas la vida de la bondad Vampiro, te alimentas de la vida de un corazón puro Vampiro chupas la vida de la bondad Enciende las luces Deja que las luces brillen Enciende las luces Deja que las luces brillen Tienes que sentirte a ti mismo y dejarte ir Tienes que saber que cosechas lo que sembraste Tienes que sentir algo en algún momento Revisa las escrituras en la pared Y mira a la vista Estás gastando todo tu dinero en cosas que nunca funcionan Estás desperdiciando toda tu energía y en todas partes duele Dios, realmente duele Si, realmente duele Tienes que conocerte a ti mismo Vampiro, te alimentas de la vida de un corazón puro Vampiro, chupas la vida de la bondad sí Vampiro, te alimentas de la vida de un corazón puro Vampiro chupas la vida de la bondad De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra Mira si escupes en el cielo Caerá en tu ojo Ves que lo que sube debe bajar Morirás mirando hacia arriba si no estás mirando hacia adentro Tienes que conocerte a ti mismo Estoy mirando a tus socios y nunca estarían de acuerdo Busco tu justicia y no se ve Estoy comprobando de dónde vienes y hacia dónde vas Estoy marcando todo lo que has hecho para ver qué puedes hacer. Estoy mirando tus libros de leyes y nunca fueron leídos Estoy mirando tus amores y no pueden ser hilo Estoy mirando tu imperio viviendo de los drears Tienes que conocerte a ti mismo Vampiro, te alimentas de la vida de un corazón puro Vampiro, chupas la vida de la bondad sí Vampiro, te alimentas de la vida de un corazón puro Vampiro chupas la vida de la bondad De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra Empire fall man, empire go De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra Hay una lección que aprender ¿Por qué es eso, debes saber De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra Y lo rico que comes es más como comida a la que temes De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra No veo amor de todos modos, apareces De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra Tienes que conocerte a ti mismo De ahora en adelante te llamaré Inglaterra Tienes que conocerte a ti mismo
@moonsugar1 I wouldn't say 'underrrated' since critics are mostly positive (acording to reviews I've seen in specialized sites). But it wasn't a comercial success which really means nothing. Some artists are ahead of their time and Tim Simenon is surely one of them. Much respect to BTB.
you'd be surprised at how many people do not get the meaning of the song. check out the comments on other videos of this song... actually don't - it will only make you lose hope in humanity ...
TBH, I don't think so. Of course, "Winter in July" and "Love So True" are all fine moments of BTB, but if you listen "Clear" closely, you'll note that it's a very different vibe. IMO, of course. :) BTW, there's a new BTB album launched some days ago. Check it out! My comment is already 2 years old. Time flies...
