Ville Valo speaking about the song "Love, the Hardest Way" from the upcoming record Screamworks: Love In Theory and Practice. www.heartagram.com www.heartagram.no www.warnerwall.no
Charles Baudelaire was a french poet from the XIX century. His work has a lot of symbolism and it's difficult to understand sometimes. The line "baudelaire in braille" it's about how hard it would be to read Baudelaire's work (and intensity) in the braille system, as a comparison to "Love the hardest way". Greetings!
But let me know..I'm maybe the only one (probably for sure) that while listening to this interview fill with sadness? I don't know why..but it always happen to me when I watch this particular video-interview..... maybe 'cause it's about his words while he's saying about the let go and meet again..maybe it's 'cause his eyes while he's talking...... I don't know.. :( But oh man if I love sooo much this song!! I love all the songs of the album but this is one of my favorites!
I noticed it too... Maybe he was still in love with his ex girlfriend... Or simply it ended in a bad way, not in a way he hoped to. It represents really the sensitivity that is behind this man.
Now that he mentions that he thinks this is very Razorblade Romancy song - so true, must be the reason why it is my favorite song off this album ❤ Razorblade Romance changed my life in ‘99🥰
pretty sure I'm getting a "Baudelaire in Braille" tattoo. It's just the most genius thing I've ever heard. The whole song.. but that especially, I don't even know how to explain it.. I guess he just put the way I feel into words for me!
i have "the flowers of evil" by baudelaire and it is the most beautiful book of poetry ever, pure sensual torture, definitely an early representation of -][=][-][-]V[- saw them at the house of blues and was like 10 feet away from them, never been so close and probably never will be again, I can die in peace now heh heh heh
