I have watched the entire season at least a dozen times and I know every scene but I still have to fight back the tears. It's a beautifully written show that is one of my favorite shows of all time. At the end of the day it's all about her.
Listening to this song knowing the show's been over for almost a decade now, as a huge fan and very nostalgia-sensitive person, is a hell of a burn. I miss this show so much. Why am I even tearing up? Damn you Californication
I'm I the only one who found Faith's continuous self declaring wonder quite a bit narcissistic. She was cool and certainly had some good individuality to her (what I find highly important). Yet I found her severe lack of humbleness having something very unattractive. Karen will forever be best woman for me in almost every aspect, followed up by Abby. :)
Milio Lybi Actually, I just Thought that Hank will give it a try with her. Yes, she was a bit narcissist, but is part of the world that she was in to. When hank woke up after that dream, that was the only 100% honest moment of her with him, and I bought it. Is a shame that the 7 season was so poorly executed, this show didn’t have the end that it deserves.
gee, I just watched all 7 years in the last few weeks and I think he was meant to be Hank! It was just the perfect role for him.....he was/is awesome as Hank!
Nobody has found an acoustic version of this song???? This song is incredible simple and yet, so powerful in the series version. Daaaam, Atticus, 4 years and counting and we are waiting for the acoustic version!
I've been a big fan of Tim Minchin for years, but he still doesn't get the recognition I think he deserves. A smart and very funny comedian, and a brilliant musician and songwriter, he absolutely killed as Atticus Fetch. Being from England, I don't know how much recognition Californication got in the states (presumably more than in the UK, since it aired for 7 seasons), but over here it's still criminally underrated in my book. 90% of the throwaway lines in that show are wittier and funnier than the "best" lines from most other TV shows.
You have these sitcoms, you have these comedy series, but then you have this one... I've found myself just saying shit like "holy shit beautiful beautiful show" after an episode ends. I've never had this with any other series, and I'm a TV enthusiast
Lyrics I saw your weeping eyes reflected in the window of a Boeing 727. You looked down at the city, Saw it slowly growing tiny, As the sunset turned hell's kitchen into heaven. You turned your face to me and I tucked your hair behind your ears... Said nothing can go wrong So long as we are together So long as we are So long (x2) And if we'd met today I wonder if we'd met this way Would you have anything to say to me? Stare out at the breakers as our silence slowly stretches And the storm clouds darkened in conspiracy You turned your face to me and I I can't meet your gaze You said nothing can go wrong Kiss these lips please Stop words forming Just say you'll stay Until the morning And if you go Just give me warning Just say you'll stay Till the morning (till the morning, till the morning, you'll stay) So long as we are rogether, so long...
As a first hour fan of Atticus Fetch I can honestly say that this is one of his best songs. I know many fans felt disappointed at the time with the new route that he took, which was so different from earlier work such as ´Step it and fetch it´ and ´fetchy fetch´ but I feel he stayed true to Atticus Fetch and just showed his new found musical maturity. (Fun fact: few know but he wrote this song when his private jet almost downed and he thought he would not make it, that's why the song is so special to him too.)
You are so right about that! Have only just discovered it on a replay Sky channel. I'm getting really worked up that it will finish fairly soon. Whatever will I do without my dose of Hank, plus all the amazing guest stars. Come on David D, give us another season or at least a catch up special. x
One day I was performing this song in front of my girlfriend. I was terrible but it was worth it Sad that we broke up. Now this song just raping my soul
So Long (As We Are Together) Tim Minchin  I saw your weeping eyes reflected in the window of a boeing 727 You looked down at the city, saw it slowly growing tiny As the sunset turned hell's kitchen into heaven You turned your face to me, and I tucked your hair behind your ears Said, nothing can go wrong So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long And if we'd met today, I wonder if we'd met this way Would you have anything to say to me? Stare out at the breakers, as our silence slowly stretches And the storm clouds darkened in conspiracy You turned your face to me and I, I can't read your gaze You said nothing can go wrong So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long Kiss these lips please, stop words forming Just say you'll stay, until the morning And if you go, just give me warning Just say you'll stay, til the morning (Til the morning, til the morning, you'll stay) So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long
I hate this version. It kills me when the distortion kicks in. I wish I could just have the acoustic-sounding version. For now, the original will do. Tim Minchin - So Long (As we are together) Acoustic + Rock
Don't shoot me down please, but can anyone tell me what this series is about? Is it worth it? :) I absolutely love this song and it sounds like it's wrapping up years of episodes.
