I just heard this song for the first time blaring in outdoor speakers at Odori Park in Sapporo during the Sapporo Light Festival as the first flakes of the season fell. What an incredible experience. I just moved to Japan a couple months ago and this experience filled me with incredible joy and love for this magical city.
Love the song, understand the image's it evokes. Bring tears to my eyes thinking about having to get out the bloody front door in 't morning on way to work. I do agree, coming from Safend. Walkin...Struggling through those bloody snow storms was fun. (If you ain't been to Sapporo. GO).
The Manics do like Japan! And i love a lot of Japanese culture- haiku, classic films (especially by Mizoguchi, e.g Sansho Dayu, the peak of cinema), Murakami novels, among other books, Zen, prints (e.g Hiroshige, Hokusai, Harunobu)...
Going to spend today, listening to all of the new 🎶 music(do people still do this?) anyway it's sounding like a wonderful addition to The Manic Street Preachers History👆
@@dominicaaaaa5547 gosh , what an introduction , although The Holy Bible was also the first full album I heard as well when first getting into them back in 95/96 ... fast forward 25 years later and 11 more albums (plus the solo albums mustn't forget!) ... its like a choose your own adventure for you to tread a path through 🤔😀😀 Id say begin with the new album to get a feel where we're currently at and then maybe choose Everything Must Go or This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours after it which were their follow up albums right after The Holy Bible and transition to a 3 piece after Richeys disappearance. 👍😍
@@Jonny_Red thanks for the reply. I didn't like the holy bible much at first actually ..wanted to - But it took me quite a while to get into I guess it's not a very easy listen is it haha. Really like it now though :0 I will go with the new one and then ..the 90s cds are probably dead cheap as most albums from that time are so I'll check out the two you recommended after. Thank you Jonny! :D
I just heard the song for the first time but I was immediately captivated by the big guitar bend after the first chorus. "I heard this before" I thought. I think it is the same you can hear in radiohead's "how to disappear completely" . In this case too, makes the song very unique
Manic Street Preachers - Still Snowing 🌨 in Sapporo (Official Audio) The Manics. are a fantastic band as I’m discovering. They never fail to please an audience with their music. I’m really enjoying listening to this song again. The lyrics are terrific and so well sung by them. I’ll continue to listen to their amazing music. Lovely 🥰 Perfection doesn’t come better than this. …. Well Done Guys. Absolute perfection !!!! Aghhh
Letras Estoy caminando por mi cuenta es 1993 I'm walking on my own it's 1993 La nieve pesada está cayendo como un ángel sobre mí The heavy snow is falling like an angel over me Lo veo todo a través de un filtro de cámara de video I see it all through a video camera filter Se siente tan real como brillo dorado barato It feels so real like cheap golden glitter No hay agujeros en mis recuerdos There are no holes in my recollections El tiempo se ha detenido y está perfectamente congelado. Time has stopped and is perfectly frozen Es posible que estos días nunca vuelvan These days may never come again Mi optimismo se asemeja a una llama moribunda My optimism resembles a dying flame Sigue nevando, nevando en Sapporo It's still snowing, snowing in Sapporo Todavía rompiendo en mi corazón Still breaking in my heart No podría durar sin el dolor, sin el dolor It couldn't last without the hurt, without the hurt Sigue nevando, nevando en Sapporo It's still snowing, snowing in Sapporo Todavía rompiendo en mi corazón Still breaking in my heart No podría durar sin el dolor, sin el dolor It couldn't last without the hurt, without the hurt Volamos hacia la oscuridad y aterrizamos en la noche We flew into the darkness and landed in the night A través de la nube y la niebla vislumbramos las luces de neón Through cloud and fog we glimpsed the neon lights Con los ojos corridos y maquillados vueltos hacia el cielo With make-up running eyes turned towards the sky Nuestras manos se agarraron juntas agarrándose tan fuerte Our hands all gripped together holding on so tight Ponemos nuestros cuerpos en la línea We put our bodies on the line Construimos una montaña que nunca podríamos escalar Built a mountain we could never climb ¿Cómo podrían cuatro volverse tan fuertes? How could four become so strong Sin embargo, rompe y vete demasiado pronto, demasiado pronto Yet break and leave too soon, too soon Sigue nevando, nevando en Sapporo It's still snowing, snowing in Sapporo Todavía rompiendo en mi corazón Still breaking in my heart No podría durar sin el dolor, sin el dolor It couldn't last without the hurt, without the hurt Sigue nevando, nevando en Sapporo It's still snowing, snowing in Sapporo Todavía rompiendo en mi corazón Still breaking in my heart No podría durar sin el dolor, oh, sin el dolor It couldn't last without the hurt, oh, without the hurt Sigue nevando, nevando en Sapporo It's still snowing, snowing in Sapporo Todavía rompiendo en mi corazón Still breaking in my heart No podría durar sin el dolor, sin el dolor It couldn't last without the hurt, without the hurt Oh, todavía está nevando, nevando en Sapporo Oh, it's still snowing, snowing in Sapporo Todavía rompiendo en mi corazón Still breaking in my heart Los cuatro contra el mundo, oh, contra el mundo The four of us against the world, oh, against the world
