I listened to this endlessly when I was grieving for my wife who committed suicide 8 years ago. Listening to it was this painful, comforting, wonderfully horrible embrace...We need tunes like this!
I don't mean to be rude or insensitive, but why? I understand when lonely people commit suicide. But when people are together, I think any setbacks and obstacles are more bearable. She could lean on you, confide in you, relieve... I'm sorry, maybe it gets a little better after a while. I hope so...
I used to experiencing the uniqueness of this band... Coming back from work... On my bicycle... In the dark and cold nights.... Totally exhausted.... And somehow .... I I didn't wanted to get home... Just to listening a little more the those geniuses... Thank you
Lyrics: Three inches above the floor A man in a box wants to burn my soul And I'm tired Is that the truth he says The pain is easy Too many words, too many words And I can hear 'em If you're hearing screams Come back, child, come back My hands are dry But I know they're gonna make it Just one more night Too many words, too many words And I can hear 'em Beautiful song.
J'ai découvert ce groupe et cette chanson en revenant d'un voyage en Thaïlande qui a faillit me coûter la vie en 2019. Je l'écoutais en boucle en me remettant doucement de 5 fractures du visage... Cette chanson a une grande importance dans ma vie à présent. Et je découvre ce soir l'histoire de Mimi, merci à elle et aux membres du groupe pour l'aide que cette musique m'a apporté ❤
This song has a timeless sound, I discovered the album around 2004 whilst blog hopping and ripping whole albums of MP3s, and assumed it was a recent release. I remember being in Ibiza surrounded by all the club music, and would lay on the beach listening to this on repeat, I'd never heard a song pierce right into my brain and soul like this.
That's crazy. I discovered this song 7 years ago and I was sure it was a recent release. I found out it is 3 decades old because of your comment. I'm surprised.
So much of the music Low makes is familiar the first time I hear it, yet I still discern new places every time I listen. I'm one of those people who listens on repeat. As I grow older, learn more, Low's music has more to say to me. How do you do that ? You have toured and given so much this last year. Thank you and bless always dear Mimi. Love and condolence to Alan, your family, and all of us really. ☮️💜.
Rest in peace Mimi. You'll always be one of the biggest inspirations in slowcore music and contemporary music. Thanks for share your art while being here
We never die, we live in the things we leave in others. I didn't know this band, I just met them just by chanche this week. I didn't know Parker but for sure, she´s alive singing full volume this beautiful song right now in my room. Would I know her if it wasn´t for this song? No, absolutely no. This is the magic of art and life. Let's keep her spirit alive in her sounds and be grateful for that 🙏🙏
Strange but... I didn't have the best childhood and this song gives me a feeling of peace and safety that I have barely ever experienced. Everything soft, everything whole.
This was the first Low song I ever heard, way back in 1995, and it’s still one of my favorites. As soon as I heard it, I knew I’d just discovered one of my new favorite bands.
First time I heard this I was walking along a path near my office. I had had to give up my cat that day for reasons that would take too long to explain, barely getting a chance to say goodbye. I had also gotten into an argument with my girlfriend that day and was underperforming at work. Not having a great day, in short. I work 2nd shift so it was getting dark. As I walked slowly along the path by the shore I watched the city lights across the Bay blink on as the sky turned a deep purple. This song was playing, having come on as a recommended song after my playlist ended. It just fit. It all fit so well it made me feel a little better that day. Thank you for that.
and i didn't know there was an official video - partly because it might not have originally been up and then i just looked for the familiar one (which is louder on a phone) but I'm trying my best to look out for artists official uploads even if they weren't originally available. i had no idea there was a music video for this ♥️ so I'm delighted. Low are so very underrated.
i first heard this song (and whole album) on an airplane. i was so tired but couldn’t sleep, and everyone around me had drifted off. this song hit me so hard i cried. it feels like a song that was made for me. rest in peace mimi, who will always live on through her music
Alan, if you ever read this, carry on, carry on playing those songs, play those songs all around the world, Mimi might not be here anymore but never stop playing those songs, your music is beyond beautiful.
Literally just found this video…. So taken by the music… and then… I read the comments… 😢My deepest heart felt Love to Family, Friends and fans of Mimi❤🙏
Este álbum y esta canción me han acompañado en mis días de tristeza, soledad, decepción, fracasos estos son grupos y artistas de verdad que nos hacen sentir muchas sensaciones de eso se trata la música
From personal experience I've concluded this is the ultimate "depressed while walking on a beach" song (sorry Japanese to English and Dagger) The guitar just meshes so well with the sound of the waves
This song makes me feel so nostalgic, same as the entire album too. I used to listen to it in the morning before going to work. I'm in love with this music. Greetings from Venezuela. I'm also in love with your last album "HEY WHAT" btw, it's sounds so good:')
I wish I would have discovered them in 94. It wasn’t even until the early 2000’s that I found them thanks to music sharing and they were on a unnamed MP3. Now I finally know thanks to Mint Julep.
