LYRICS
HUMAN SADNESS
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, i will be meeting you there
-Rumi
put money in my hand
and i will do the things you want me to
Vanity… overriding wisdom,
usually common sense.
should i delete it,
you said you'd read it
you promised you would never ruin it with sequels,
I wake for you… on and on
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there.
~
the moon's a skull, i think it's grinning
the room is full of people now i think it's spinning
wanted you… didn't ask for nothing. wait for you… on and on
and i don't need your tie, i don't need to, tired of saying it.
we don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on the desert floor.
…ahhh, it's all my fault
never wanna spell it out,
i just want to say that it is all my fault,
i could never spit it out,
i don't wanna fix your tie...
never want to say we're sad,
thankful that we got some chance,
i know you won't get back your time,
i wish that you could take it back...
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there.
~
he wanted it more than me, i suppose
i was in a rush to wait in a line.
now i hear echoes of my old self,
this is not the way to be.
all at once,
i lost my way...
is it not true, the things that we did?
come here at once and look what they did
come here shut down and tune in tonite,
learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
come here sit down and watch some tv
mine all mine / wait your turn
cross my cross / slice his hand
not your son / not your friend / not your enemy
i rely on the little things to get me by,
conscience says "i'm ok",
you don't hear what they say.
"he's not my son, search his home"
off to war,
it's time to go hide inside
-
soft skin,
weak chin,
just walk me thru it, tell me what to do i'll do
hurry hurry, that's my baby
ohh, do what you can.
all the time - he waits for me.
and now we talk from time to time,
hits you on the head when nobody's there,
then he says 'come here could you fix my tie?'
it's never gonna be,
to be is not the way to be.
show me where to go don't get angry so quickly,
fuck depression...
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there
~
understanding is more important than love,
if not money will always trump justice
all is lost,
i'll find my way...
so i say,
to be is not to be.
to be is not the way to be.
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it."
:D

What the actual hell this song is incredible how did I not know about this
Just discovering this myself too >< where has it been!?
Your not alone I've been hearing Julius Casablanca's music for many years but if it weren't for Daft Punks Instant Crush I would never knew he existed. I'm happy and grateful that Daft Punk are highly universal when it comes to music.
i know. exactly
Adri D What are some your favorite Daft Punk songs?
father-son relationship.. Julian's father passed away not long before this song was released. He had somewhat tension with his late father, i read somewhere about this.. my two cents tho..
Any one else wish they could listen to the song for the first time again?
Mickey Martin I do
to feel that haunting feeling again? 100% yes
No, everytime i listen its only gets better
First time rn omg
Yeah, i think the first approaches were the most important ones to my old self
This is, with complete sincerity, and with no hyperbole whatsoever, one of the best songs I have ever heard. Rarely does a song live up so fully to its title.
kaoxes I love you for saying this
omg i knew i wasn't the only one, this song is just so fucking amazing. And yeah it really does live up to it's title a lot, and oh my god the music video for this is also just amazing. i rarely even care about music videos but the music video for this together with the music is just so artistic and a whole experience. Just this song is much more than just a song to me, it's like more idk i can't explain it, 10/10 masterpiece song
p.s. i usually get sick of songs that last a very long time, especially ones as long as 10 minutes, that's very long but somehow i can listen to every second of this song on repeat forever. I never get bored, i never get sick of it
Agreed. Even if I came from that peepo thing I’m glad i found this song. Finding a beautiful song like this out in the open world, hope I find another one without any other assistance.
@@volkova6209 I agree this song is more then a song like it speaks to me. A masterpiece. & imo 8:34 minute mark is the most exceptional sound/singing I've ever heard in my life. Outstanding, brilliant song.
Well, . Thank you. !
Even though I can listen to this on my phone I just keep coming here to read comments and feel like I have friends to share it with
I feel that, m8.
+spinningelectrons Everyone around me here thinks I'm weird for listening to this everyday.
me too
yup. glad there are people who love this song just as much as I do. Wholeheartedly.
cececcececee guy's this song is made for very special people who will appreciate it forever and love everyone and be themselves and feel emotions raw and express them these are special people and I know there's a lot in your love that you can't tell people but you could tell to these special people I know it's so hard to find these special people really really hard but there are so many of them you just have to wait and you'll find them look at us we're all here now
Can you IMAGINE how this sounded in the studio?
I would have a mental breakdown
hahaha right?! "Trust me it'll be great!""
probably like heaven
am i the only one that thinks this is a masterpiece ? it seriously one of my top 3 songs ever
don't worry , same for me
Absolute genius
and me, truly amazing
Yeah it's brilliant. You are right!
*****
yea its that good. i mean idk it might change with time, but like the current status is
yea
My son has been battling cancer since he was 15 now his 23 and still dealing with it, his always been a good son never asked for much but when the voidz came to Dallas had to take him his favorite band of all time
Hope he is fine....
He will win
you're a good father
Is he winning, son?
I hope he is well thank you for sharing that it put a smile on my face❤️
The string progression being from Mozart's last song before he died makes the intro 10 times as haunting.
mozart chad af
serious or wat
@@troytombstone2664 th-cam.com/video/XmttZ-BnwaI/w-d-xo.html
don't know if its exactly the same, but if not it was def inspired by mozart
@@beastman32 yeah they sample mozarts requiem.
I didn't know that was where it came from but that's a great bit of trivia
This song is agony. Each individual sound is like a progression of suffering. Yet it is beautiful.
You get it man
I'm 14 and this is deep
Just reminds me of all the times my hearts been broken and how I keep managing to keep myself up, I'm proud of myself honestly and it's taken me so long to get to this point ugh
@@Ringingalong7008 shut
Mattan Landkof I hope u heal one day, there's no need for negativity here
This is the kind of song you put both ear buds in for and just vibe out in the dark
like feel the vibe or like really vibe out
Amanda Moreland exactly what i did the first time i listened to it
Yes
Amanda Moreland or study hall
Amanda Moreland me rn
This song is sad, love, hate, regret, anger, smile, surrender.
We need Julian Casablancas to lead us into a golden age of absurdly overproduced rock odysseys.
iWouldWantSky yes
Como en los 70's ;)
If only he could bust in to the mainstream and take it over, with his label, and the help of other talent, I could see the changing of the guard.
and that being stated while using that avatar picture just made it a far better comment than it already was haha
Ode to the mets!
Odd, but I'm down.
NOICE.
I know its not trap influenced beats but i feel you should review it anyway.
Was just wondering what you would think of this!
YESSSS FANTANO'S ON BOARD
A strong 7 to a light 8?
this song is literally the definition of human sadness
Listen to "I Hung My Head" by *Johnny Cash*
@@joekerr1763 well if he didn't i just did and its rly epic man thanks tho
Fking Slai
Thanks for checking out the song, but really all thanks go to the late great JC
Ive heard sadder songs
Preach
This song will be played on a constant loop at my funeral.
@@amaurylannes no only human sadness
(By the voidz 2006)
I feel like this is just ahead of its time
were you right or were you right ..
Indeed sir
oh yeah, for sure
true
More like a memory from a forgotten era.
This is the kind of song you think aren't made anymore. Long, serious, experimental, exciting, beautiful, genuine... you could go on and on. A big thank you to Casablancas and the Voidz for writing and performing this artwork of a song
The bass on this song is RIDICULOUSLY catchy
*bass
+ilikespacedinosaurs just fixed it, i was beyond drunk when i wrote this post XD
Emma Taub lol sorry for being a dick, I hate when people correct stuff like that.
+ilikespacedinosaurs nahhh don't worry about it! I do the same thing. no problem
+Emma Taub *
I could listen to that bass-line for an eternity.
its 2 bass lines
honestly
When I first heard this song I was amazed, I loved it right from the start… however I didn’t understand the lyrics, I’m a huge Julian fan but I didn’t realize the depth of his relationship with his father. After I heard the song I watched his fathers documentary “Casablancas-the man who loved women” and when I was watching it, it all came crashing down.. you realize that his father was so wrapped up in his job, and the models, that he completely neglected Julian. He only mentioned Julian once in the damn documentary. Then you realize the “fix your tie” references, once you see his father ALWAYS wore a suit with a tie. Every time he says “hits you on the head when nobody’s there, then he says ‘come here could you fix my tie?’ “ it KILLS me. I love Julian and it hurts my heart that he had to go through this with his father.. and he really talks about it all in this song, along with how corrupted the world is. It really is the definition of “human sadness”.
I want this to become the Bohemian Rhapsody of our time.
+Ty Scott it already is
I actually thought the same thing the first time I heard it.
+Ty Scott it's the Bohemian Rhapsody of Julian
+Ty Scott hoping is free. but now... dance pop is the winner... ok now i feel the human sadness
Fuck depression, dude.
The way this song distorts the lyrics is like when you're trying to remember what was said and it all comes up as gibberish. But if you focus enough it makes sense. Some primitive part of me just gets me whenever I hear this song and I start sobbing.
Lyrics:
Put money in my hand and I will do the things you want me to
Vanity overriding wisdom, usually common sense
Should I delete it, you said you'd read it
You promised you would never ruin it with sequels
I wait for you on and on
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a-
The moon's a skull, I think it's grinning
The room is full of people now I think it's spinning
Wanted you, didn't ask for nothing
Wait for you on and on
And I don't need your tie, I don't need to, tired of saying it
We don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on the desert floor
Ahhh, it's all my fault
Never wanna spell it out, I just want to say that it is all my fault

Understanding is more important than love
If not money will always trump justice
All is lost, I'll find my way
So I say to be is not to be, to be is not the way to be
Oh my god. This is totally what music is supposed to be.
an accurate statement indeed
The sounds, they blend so perfectly.
honestly this song has so much depth i cant help but feel heavy inside like there's a weight in my chest but yet still hollow. i haven't felt like this in years...
i think this is the proof that Julian just made (and always does, one way or another) exactly what an artist should do, that's shaking others' coscience and make them feel query and open to enrichment. all that and some other features make him the best person in music right now.

I tear up everytime. It's not even funny. I'm so proud of Julian for going out of his comfort zone and creating something totally different. This is definitely a masterpiece, I'll never grow tired of.
Nowadays everybody says "oh It's just a Masterpiece". But un this case I'm 100% agree
Totally different??

This song is like a poem. Love it.
I sort of ruined this song by listening to it at one of the saddest points in my life. It's difficult to sit through.
smile as you have a companion at your saddest point of your life and still is even it has passed. the song will keep playing, and your past will become a faint memory as you progress through your life :)
Really emotional complicated piece of music.
This song means so much to me. It's very rare to hear an artwork that lives up to a title as large in scope as "Human Sadness" but this completely lives up to the expectation and explores it with sophistication and depth. The instruments literally sound like they're crying, the lyrics are vague but point towards deep regret and longing.
The use of Mozarts Requiem for the dead. The subtext of this song, Julians father, their complicated relationship and Julian coming to terms with his fathers passing and his own mortality. The fuzzy, harsh soundscape that is unrelenting in bluntness but still beautiful in melody and production. (much like life is, unrelenting pain but still very beautiful)
All of it adds to a Journey that doesn't sound ten minutes but like an entire lifetime, ending with "To Be is not To Be" or "To Live is to Die" what a profound statement on the human condition.
just in every aspect of the word, a Masterpiece.
This song makes me feel bad for deaf people...
either way you still should be sorry for them...
DisSolve Movies So you are that special snow flake? That snow flake that gets treated badly and thinks they are gifted? ok.
DisSolve Movies Im sorry did you say I because you said "WE" so you are reffering to every deaf person existing on this planet. and by the way you said fuck you and what do you expect from a response. "wow that's kind luv you XOXO". and how long have you been on the internet to not even know a special snowflake harmless joke. read your own comment, maybe you're blind not deaf.
can you feel the vibrations of the music if its really loud? and is that enjoyable for anyone?

THIS is art ladies and gentleman. So much feeling. I didn't hear this song, I FELT IT. My god it hurts so good!! I am aliveeee
lmao.. wow I don't remember writing this but my goodness if it isn't true. im back for more of this beauty
come back again natures callin u
+Adnan Khan helloooo hello again! my god this is good.
It's time to feel again! Also, love The 1975.
Im back yet again... so beautifully raw! I looked this guy up after his collab with daft punk. Life is magical
This is truly a masterpiece, too sad it won't get the recognition it deserves.
exactly
+ElAchach Yes, it will. Being no. 1 on some chart is not all that counts for recognition. Play it at your house party, share it on your blog, blast it in your car, teach it to your kids... Their time will come.
Most underrated song of the century
+Natalia Vargas *off topic* hahaha i also found you in the comments of Life is simple in the moonlight
but u know something? im sure that if this song became popular, a lot of us would get mad and be cursing at posers, or am i wrong?
this comment section understands.
Woah, I usually don't get goosebumps from a song but this... it's so unique and different. love it
2:30-3:00 is my favorite part
+Leah W I'm in love with 7:54 - 8:50
+Dillion Stocker same! favorite part
+Dillion Stocker ugh love that part too

Hard to explain what incredible impact this song has and has had on me. Been my favorite song for nearly 2 years and it still never gets old, I could talk about it for hours. What an absolute masterpiece
Hard to explain
get it
BallsDeepIn Spaghetti I was about to say the same thing! HAHA
BallsDeepIn Spaghetti like how I stroke so long
Jay Cotrone he's really sweet in person
This song is so long that I read all 2,083 comments it has.
It HAD to be that long. You should have paid attention to it
what the fuck this is gorgeous
I almost hate how addicted I’ve become to this song...
I wish I could hear it for the first time again.
I was so confused and intrigued.
Don’t get me wrong, I certainly wasn’t cool enough to appreciate it immediately.
I had to work for this one! Sometimes though, it’s the work that makes you appreciate something.
it took me so many listens to get all the lyrics right. its. so insane tho

twice "still garbage, oh god"
In the third time I was "Okay.......I don't think it's so bad"
Now I'm like "Okay this is just perfect"
Same.
His music is different that’s why. Probably ahead of its time
2:35 is where I instantly putted it in my music playlist haha.
thankfully i didn't go through the grief of liking this song and just accepted it
When I first heard this song I was sorely disappointed, but for some reason I kept coming back to it and now I think it's one of the best songs Julian has ever written.
The lyric "Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, I will be meeting you there." in this song is actually a quote of Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi, a Turkish-Farsian poet and philosopher who lived in 13th century. He has a quite interesting story. He wrote a lot of poems and books. He had a friend called Shams-e Tabrizi. He was also a philosopher and Rumi's only friend. According to his books and records, they did talking sessions which lasted 20-25 hours without eating or sleeping. He also wrote in that records that he suspects Shams to be a messiah. Also, according to multiple records according his, the city's citizens he lived in hates Shams but loves Rumi. Shams died in 1248, and Rumi said this to him after his passing. Also, after his passing, Rumi opened schools, started to teach childrens and gave himself more into the religion. This guy is interesting.
Bunu okumasaydım hiç farketmeyecektim muhtemelen ♡♡
for a muslim, Rumi sure wrote a lot of poems about the joys of drinking wine!
i looked up the tab for this song and my computer exploded
careful guys
Hahaha great comment
easily my favourite song i’ve ever come across and i feel so lucky to have stumbled across this and the voidz.
when i first heard it, i didn’t really understand what i was listening to because it was so far removed from anything else i’ve ever heard. what first captured me, aside from the bass line, was julian’s vocal distortion and how it blended/became a part of the instrumentation. this was exciting in and of itself because again, maybe i’m musically sheltered, but i hadn’t ever come across such a clever arrangement.
then there’s some of the lyrics: “don’t empty out your canteen on the desert floor” which my analysis of that phrase is something to the effect of: “don’t pour and pour your energy into something/someone that will just take all you have and remain unchanged despite you depleting all your resources” i love how the lyrics follow with julian belting out “it’s all my fault” which really drove the whole passage home for me.
then there’s all the instrumentation - the gritty, screeching, wailing guitars and the complete 180 of a tempo change into the second portion of the piece - all purposefully emotional. i felt like julian and the boys knew exactly what they were doing here with all the sound and intended to demonstrate yearning, grief, anger, resentment (the spectrum of human sadness) through their instruments in this song. a total personification of sadness which was a wild realization for me.
i won’t lie, when i first heard this piece and started coming back to listen again and again, i only liked a few passages and found the whole song to be really overwhelming and muddled. after a few more listens, i vividly remember some kind of haze lifting and it was like i really *heard* what was happening for the first time which was an incredible experience.
anyways, i didn’t intend to turn this into a complete review, but it’s been years and i wanted to write out all my feelings about this piece. i’m certain i won’t ever forget this song.
ahhh beautiful 🥲
The Strokes + Radiohead + Pink Floyd + Daft Punk = This song
PolyMathKing Plus those violins at the beginning from Mozart's Requiem
I always thought there are parallels between Yorke's melodies and julians'.
imslicc totally man..wow i always thought these two have like the greatest sense of vocal Melody.
PolyMathKing = The Voidz
+ the synth is realy like Guns n' Roses - November Rain in some point
this whole song embodies "childhood trauma from an abusive parent" extremely well but it really gets painfully real at 5:10. the pure raw grief of it all! wow! i'm crying now
5:10 and the next like 2-3 minutes gives me goosebumps
exactly, when he sings/screams "mine all mine!" I always cry.
Note Most comment are guys and most of the girls comment are cringe and not immersive something like omg gets me in my feels but you brother or sister you know whats real
@@arthurhuerta4234 people like you are the worst
I played it in my studio and another guy sitting besides me asked me to play something normal people would listen to...He is not my friend anymore.
Fuck that guy
Is this a cult
I want someone to play this at my funeral.
I would like the same
Bunch of old people like "lol what is this shit"
I don't believe this comment section is very lively anymore but.. i'd like to give my opinion on this masterpiece.
Sometime's at night/afternoon i like to go lay myself down on the cold concrete floor of my balcony and listen to this song. It's in a way.. calming. I don't believe i can put it into word's.. but this song feel's so,, genuine? You can hear the singer's feelings through the song but you cant describe what he's feeling.
This song has truly captured an amazing feeling.
When i listen to this i just feel so.. alive.
Thank you.
Your welcome
Dude same only i do it in my bed or my seat
i dont cry at this song, but who cares?
This music is awesome i can't explain why
I'm sure your neighbor thinks you're a weirdo. They probably laugh about it over dinner.
Its like Casablancas thought of all the people who are still slaves to their expectations of how he should sound, and spit on them. (but really, he just does w/e he wants and feels)
Anyways, lots of catchy stuff in here. Very happy he made this song... shame so many people are quick to scream 'conceded'
Okay, listened to the song 3 times already. Really loving it... so better hold off to listen to it again until the album is released
smokelakes wow great comment, I heard this song like 10 in row times yesterday while doing something else. It grows on you so much. You start to look at it less messy then at the beginning, you find harmonies, structures, and melodies. Pure genius. That's just my opinion anyways.
toune de marde, crisse même avec des nouveaux musiciens y fa encore la meme marde c quoi julian la master of puppet
Whats great about this song is that it turns so many people away throughout. The room empties, and it becomes personal.
Mozart would be proud.

@@diegomontalvo9173 It happened to me that a friend put this song and I was like, why did you put Mozart? hahah
You just know this would be a classic if radiohead made it
well it is a little lengthy
@@looksnormal kinda too short for me ngl xD
It’s a classic and the Voidz made it 😎
This song makes me feel emotions I cannot even describe. Is it sadness? Grief? Anger?? I have no clue, but it's pretty great.
People can say this and that about this song, but all I hear is a man pouring his soul into music about his father. This is the most beautiful peace of music I've ever heard....
The whole album is amazing.
You're amazing
❤
@@masonehrmantraut9779 you too
Nice profile pic
Absolutely beautiful, in a haunting way. Heard this randomly while sitting around and drinking by myself, I feel like it's a song you should only listen to when you're alone. Not something friends can sit around and jam out to, unless you're all fans of Julian. Anyway, excellent.
My best friend and I were walking to the store in middle school when this first came out, happened to come up on her Pandora or whatever. We loved it. It's been our song since then. She's not doing the best, and listening to this takes me back to when life was simple. If anybody reads this, send love her way.
Love to your friend
And love to you too
I'll be praying for you both if i happen to remember
Love sent
My thoughts on lyrics: ''to be is not to be, to be is not the way to be"- a rumination of Hamlet's famous soliloquy ( at end of song) when Hamlet tries to make sense of the purpose of life and death, after he loses his father. Like Hamlet, he sees little reason to carry on due to losses in life. ( Maybe his father's death he can't come to terms with.)
It seems like a father/son relationship that broke, like when he says " I don't want to fix your tie"; reminds me of a father guiding/teaching his son to tie their tie when they're little: which is a sort of bonding experience, but their relationship is damaged, and they can't bond properly.
"Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, and I'll be meeting you there": sort of makes me think of him seeing his father somewhere in the afterlife, where the mistakes of life are no longer judged: they will only then be able to reconcile their love for each other.
I love that perspective, thank you
Life is a complicated process,you grow up with creativity and imagination but then as you get older reality takes it away which really sucks
Sadly that's very true
it hurts
in the middle on my experience and oh god...

This album is actually going to get a 10/10 reissue in 10 years from p4k. This album is ahead of its time and people who misunderstand it will tell you "its just studio wankery, its very self indulgent" ect... the kind of criticisms that someone unable to appreciate and enjoy the most forward thinking album in a decade. I'm just here to give you a heads up.
Baatts halfway there
Almost there...
fuck fuck fuckfuck fuck fuckfuck fuck fuck I'm obsessed with this song my respect for julian went up sooo high. He works so well with the voids. I mean the strokes were "eh" for me but this... ohhh my god this album is great. more more more more more plz
lol you're welcome brotha
The solo is absolute perfectionnnnn and the lyrics and the song is just amazing it's so beautiful in so many different ways this song always makes me feel so emotional
Nick Spratt Holy shit. Your respect? *Hey everyone, the world renowned Nick Spratt just gave this song his approval.* I guess Julian finally feels validated now that he's proven his worth to Nick Spratt.
Stop taking yourself so seriously kid.
Sam Gee chiiiiiilll
its crazy how this song touches all of your emotions at once
I was dying in a hospital. this song showed up on TH-cam or spotify, and I listened to it over and over. Kept me tethered to the living.
I said this on the Where No Eagles Fly video, and I'll say it here.
This is not The Strokes. Comparing it to the Strokes is pointless. We all knew from the moment this album was announced that it was going to be weird. The key is to keep your mind open. Go look up the lyrics to this song. This is Julian's most emotional work to date and it is absolute genius. I don't care if you disagree, but this is not a Strokes song.
It’s kind of ironic because some parts of this song almost sound like a strokes song
Correct, this is a Voidz song.
@@rustwish382 this is not an opinion this is facts right here
Human sadness of Gaza's peoples. #freepalestine
I just wanted to make you laugh
this is my first time listening to it right now, holy shit
this is what I consider a Rock Symphony is like
One like and I'll drink by myself.
Okay.
+Captain Eardrum bleach?
I HOPE YER STILL DRINKIN
You're now drinking with 76 people
Looks like you'll be taking one more drinkie-poo.
Julian has one of the best voices I have ever heard.
Man, after listining to instant crush and now this? I'm convinced that julian casablanca is a true musical genius
Does anybody get a post apocalyptic vibe? A vibe where the Voidz are the outcasts in a place where survival determines daily life. However, with the little instruments and little technology, Julian and the band manage to take over radio waves in order to show society their sound. A sound that is a distorted mess, but also a sound where you can find hints of beauty. A sound that is given to the people, and a sound that can't be exploited. A sound with glimmers of beauty in this barbaric slaughterhouse that was once called humanity....so they say...
Never mind about the distorted mess comment. The song is perfect.
Post-apocalyptic yeah but I felt it in a different way, after all the structures that guide human development, family, tradition, community, ideals, are destroyed in the name of liberation, leaving us adrift, to pick up the pieces...
This song is going to be a classic like Bohemian Rhapsody one day..
too precious to be a popularized classic
@@user-xz9fo3rj4u fuck you trash
No, not like Bohemian Rhapsody, it will be better!
Still waiting
Yeah, as great as BH is, I think this is better.
This song reminds me of my best friend from highschool. When we had nothing we had Julian and the Strokes and the Voidz. We’re not friends anymore, which I wish I could change. But I come back to this song so often despite the memories it has with it.
ive never been able to listen to a song every day for years until this came out. it gets better every damn time too.
I'm scared cuz I'm only on day 2 or 3 and I can't get over how good this is.
+Jeremy Harris
Hahaha have no worries, I'm quite sure it'll stick with you for a long time to come...
Somehow julian broke the passage of Time, every-time I listen to this song it doesn't even feel like 11 minutes has gone by.
I do not know how many times I've heard this song but everytime I do feels different. A very complicated song. So deep, so dark, so timeless. Love it.
I want to get a speaker in my bathroom & blast this while taking a shower in the dark. That sounds like the mood of this song.
honest to goodness, this song is one of the most brilliant rock songs of the 2000's. it's a experimental rock masterpiece. just the way julian casablancas fits all these melodies and coherent ideas without sacrificing it for catchiness and "pop" but still making them compelling and singable amidst all the noise and abstraction is just extraordinary in every sense of the word.
I enjoyed my stay xqxL I enjoyed my stay xqxL I enjoyed my stay xqxL
i am many years late in discovering julian casablancas. the past few days i've been going through everything he has created and it has been one of greatest experiences i've had this year. and among all his works, this song is the rawest, most genius and sincere thing i have heard. you don't simply listen to it but you experience it and each time you come back to it something new hits you.
There is no other song like this to exist. Masterpiece
This is Julian's magnum opus without a doubt.
Ode to the mets I his magnum opus
This is heartbreaking
listened to it while I was high, soul left my body
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
I will be meeting you there...
Such a great lyric
I love it. I LOVE IT. Am I the only one who's in love with this? I'm not even a fan of experimental music (if that's how you can call this, I don't want to enter some dumb music genre discussion), but this is... so peaceful, so nostalgic, like I can see myself sleeping to this. It creates lots of VHS images in my head which I think was the intention. It also reminds me of vaporwave which I'm currently listening to. Julian's distorted voice sounds beautiful too. I can't wait to hear the entire album!
peaceful? O_O woah, i think this song is about a total different feeling, maybe the intention is chasing peace, but not enhancing peace with the song sounds and lyrics, as it's tumultuous... it seems like it's being enhancing bad feelings to dismiss them...
Alight86 You're right. Maybe peaceful wasn't the word, but relaxing. It relaxes me, that's what I meant. Although it also makes me feel anxious, but I like it.
As for the lyrics... well, they've been written by Julian, right? It's usually hard to interpret his lyrics, you don't get more than the "feeling" to them, which in this case it's depressing. I'd like to read an interesting interpretation of this lyrics, though.
Kai Kwon no you are not the only one, my parts 4:07-5:13 (peaceful bliss) and also 7:00-7:50 (no comment)
cawabunga360 I agree, there's no comment for 7:00-7:50. Although I think my favourite part is the beginning. Dat bass line stole my heart since the first time I heard the preview of the album.
***** I understand it too but I wish people would appreciate this, because I don't think it's "overdone". I don't care about everyone liking experimental music, I'd just like Julian's intentions to be conveyed properly (I know I'm no one to say this tho lol). I've listened to noisy, shitty experimental music which I can't stand, and because of that I know this is something else. There is melody, there are feelings, the entire song is connected by the same bass line. I'm not a music expert but I don't think this is bad, apart from liking it or not.
I hope some day you read this comment & know I still really adore you.
lyrics to human sadness
put money in my hand
and i will do the things you want me to
Vanity… overriding wisdom,
usually common sense.
should i delete it,
you said you'd read it
you promised you would never ruin it with sequels,
I wake for you… on and on
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there.
~
the moon's a skull, i think it's grinning
the room is full of people now i think it's spinning
wanted you… didn't ask for nothing. wait for you… on and on
and i don't need your tie, i don't need to, tired of saying it.
we don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on the desert floor.
…ahhh, it's all my fault
never wanna spell it out,
i just want to say that it is all my fault,
i could never spit it out,
i don't wanna fix your tie...
never want to say we're sad,
thankful that we got some chance,
i know you won't get back your time,
i wish that you could take it back...
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there.
~
he wanted it more than me, i suppose
i was in a rush to wait in a line.
now i hear echoes of my old self,
this is not the way to be.
all at once,
i lost my way...
is it not true, the things that we did?
come here at once and look what they did
come here shut down and tune in tonite,
learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
come here sit down and watch some tv
mine all mine / wait your turn
cross my cross / slice his hand
not your son / not your friend / not your enemy
i rely on the little things to get me by,
conscience says "i'm ok",
you don't hear what they say.
"he's not my son, search his home"
off to war,
it's time to go hide inside
-
soft skin,
weak chin,
just walk me thru it, tell me what to do i'll do
hurry hurry, that's my baby
ohh, do what you can.
all the time - he waits for me.
and now we talk from time to time,
hits you on the head when nobody's there,
then he says 'come here could you fix my tie?'
it's never gonna be,
to be is not the way to be.
show me where to go don't get angry so quickly,
fuck depression...
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there
~
understanding is more important than love,
if not money will always trump justice
all is lost,
i'll find my way...
so i say,
to be is not to be.
to be is not the way to be.
music is emotion,its the feeling emphasized and put into a melody.JULIANS UNAFRAID,to express this,thats what makes him a true musician.
Soooooo true
