i've loved Keaton for years and i always thought of the woman who broke his heart as a heartless person and wondered how someone could do that to him because he is so broken. That was before I was introduced to soko. Now I'm just confused
Soko is teach me /Keaton Henson Keaton is not just a broken heart. It is also the loneliness, the loneliness of the artist who finds it hard to love as others want to be loved, but if he does, in his solitary way, in his manly way broken by his own melancholy. I do not think everything in Keaton, or his music, goes because of somebody, but of him against the others
You're cheapening the music by trying to solve this & read into his personal life. If you're a real fan you'll hear the artistry & beauty of mystery & leave it at that.
Wow amazing! Not just about the song, but how Soko and Keaton uses music as a form of expression; how you are suppose to use music in the first place! It's amazing because their lyrics become an exchange of notes, poetry floating above harmonised notes. This is purely amazing! You don't often hear these stuff happen!
I've been listening to Keaton Henson's songs about Soko for years, and never questioned his narrative of her. It feels very different to hear both sides of the story now. I feel sorry for both of them. You can tell that they had something special. EDIT: oh my god why did this take me forever? the song 10AM Gare Du Nord is supposedly about Soko and the fuckin title is in french bc Soko is french i'm shook
Keaton's Song" You gave up on me way too fast Our parents would've never done that Give me time and I'll prove you that I am better that I showed you last You are sick and tired of seeing me cry You don't know how to calm me down Please read me poems, and make me laugh Remind me how lucky I am You wonder why I hate myself I'm trying to kill the worst of me To be the best for you To be the best for you You haven't spoken a word for days Writing all down, you say keeps you alive You grow a beard to hide behind So I can not read your mind I can not read your mind I can not read your mind You built walls no one could climb And bury yourself in your Victorian mind You said "Forget it, it's better like that" Since I've lost all sense and meaning of life Now where do our story end I'm not ready to move on I know You'd be the best for me I'd be the best for you You gave up on me way too fast Don't be a stranger at last Give me time and I'll prove you that Trying to kill the worst of me To be the best for you To be the best for you
I love that name, for i belong to the Moon as well. the man in the moon is the only one who ever loved me back unconditionally besides my own father and he left the earth 2 years ago. But he told me that he would wait for me on the Moon whenever I died so he could show me the way to heaven hand in hand.
She is the ex. They used to date a few years ago. Soko's dad is dead, you can see a referense in Keaton's song "does he know, not to speak about your dad". Also 10 am is about her
Well I think a lot of songs in Birthdays are about SoKo. For example Sweetheart, What Have You Done To Us, with the line "You were the one who told me not to be so English", as SoKo is French. So I'd say they were dating around 2012 but I don't really know as they didn't talk a lot about this :p
