That's incredible, I've just listened to the same compilation from Uncut mag and this song has knocked me for six, love the intro with the fantastic drums rolling in and good god what a great melody. 5+
My young bride Why are your shoulders like that Of a tired old woman Like a tired old woman? My young bride Why are your fingers like that Of the hedge in winter Of the hedge in winter? Polonaise in winter Snowshoes and hunters Carried the goods in for you My young bride Why aren't you moving at all Helps to make the day seem shorter Helps to make the day seem shorter My young bride Why aren't you keeping with you All the ones who really love you All the ones who really love you? Polonaise in winter Snowshoes and hunters Carried the goods in for you Darkness and forests Grant you the longest Face made for porridge and stew Polonaise in winter Snowshoes and hunters Carried the goods in for you Darkness and forests Grant you the longest Face made for porridge and stew Polonaise in winter Snowshoes and hunters Carried the goods in for you Darkness and forests Grant you the longest Face made for porridge and stew Polonaise in winter Snowshoes and hunters Carried the goods in for you Darkness and forests Grant you the longest...
The scene begins w/ her death. Lovely scenery, for a slow rebirth? Seen thru _uprights_ (books/trees/a wardrobe of clothes/candles/..). "My Yng Bride why are your fingers like that, of the hedge in winter" "Polanaise in winter/ snowshoes & hunters/ carry the goods in 4U. Darkness & forest, grant U... stew" -After that I like the vid images, better than the lyrics'. Into that jar she puts snow, white tendrils...unchanged she walks on, sees it enlarged, adds butterfly/moth. (etc, as U see.).Lovely
You might say it's patriarchy, or just one woman who is pressured into a marriage she doesn't want and ends up depressed (which is what her walking barely clothed in the snow symbolizes) and then killing herself with pills. The video starts with the last scene.
Beautiful song. The Chorus sounds like ELO. Some of the other songs on the album are not so good, though. Personally, I really like tracks 1,2,3,5, and 7 and perhaps 4. People tell me to "just keep listening" to the other tracks and they will grow on me, but I'm not getting it yet.
2024 and still listening to this hypnotic track. Lucky to have seen them live in Bristol UK
This will forever and always be a very bittersweet and amazing song to me. It feels vulnerable to listen to a lot of the times I do.
Van Occupanther is the album I'm listening to more than any other, does that mean its the best album ever? Yes it does!!
Hey bud, it's been 11 yrs. Still listening to midlake?
@@jaylucino8890 this album yes, not the others much
One of the last great indie rock albums tbh
Haven't listen to this album in quite a while. I think 8 years. I forgot how incredible every song is.
I didn't know they had music videos before Antiphon. Whaddaya think of The Courage of Others?
one of my favorite albums of all time, not enough people realize how great it is
This song made me fall in love with Midlake. Absolutely beautiful!
Never seen this before but been loving the album since at least '07. Worthy video.
this is everything and again and again & again
both the visuals and the music, so magnifique
my first time to hear their music .cool and relaxed.
i luv that song
One of my favorite music videos, period. It's top-notch!
That's incredible, I've just listened to the same compilation from Uncut mag and this song has knocked me for six, love the intro with the fantastic drums rolling in and good god what a great melody. 5+

where is this band from?
can you explain the video or the message behind it?
Patriarchy
You might say it's patriarchy, or just one woman who is pressured into a marriage she doesn't want and ends up depressed (which is what her walking barely clothed in the snow symbolizes) and then killing herself with pills. The video starts with the last scene.
