LadyCrimson Posted September 15, 2019 Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) The video/concept reminds me a tad of that opening of Up. I tried to find a YT vid with English subs but failed. Only web lyrics I found were very broken English. So I copied the lyric subs from Netflix. I can't vouch for their total translation accuracy but they get the point across. (the concert+video skits film "Mayday Life" is on Netflix, this is the closing song). I think I like this Taiwan band, apparently been around many years (early 90's?) so they're now all mid to late 40's, still performing/touring. Sorta garage/rock/pop ballad mixture genres. Edit: those lyrics are long, added a spoiler tag. Spoiler It's the final chapter, of the autobiography Seen all the glamour in the destiny Blurry pupils, dried skins That had once been so flourishing Pick one of your favorite photos Who was beside you, during those millions of moments I was like you in that year, flying Unsettling and unable to forget But still, I have to open my palms Whose warmth did I hold onto? It's getting cold. Is there someone somewhere, waiting for me to go back to what I was? When my cheeks were smooth and the nights were cool The world was crazy and love was blooming Is there someone by my side, listening to me talking about the long life ahead In your eyes I seem to be forgetful It's because in my mind I already have the one The one who is the haredest to forget In my times there were still record stores, like a museum filled with hope The Beatles and Guns n Roses, love and sorrow, always singing with pride Success is like a sand castle, and life is a wave The waves would flush away all the illusions Savings and houses, struggles and desires Becoming empty Memories are like windows, cold tears in the eyes The scenery is blurred as if I'm in heaven The lonely big bed, who comes near my face Is someone recalling the past with a smile too? Fumbling and reckless, looking so foolish The most common days, the most humble dreams When do we find out, whats worth cherishing Is there someone there to tell me the truth Time is the biggest lie What seems to be usual is impermanent the actualization of life is only, illusions This is the final chapter, of my autobiography Spending a lifetime to write this long poem The body is freed of pills and empty room I walk back to the light from the crib Is someone there who knows the place I can go back and be with my love Kids are all busy just let them be When I'm gone just pretend I'm flying Flying in freedom Edited September 15, 2019 by LadyCrimson “Things are as they are.

Bartimaeus Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

It's a bit of an "unfortunate compromise" perhaps (not a terrible one by any means), but I do find that instrumentally few acts out there pack the punch and pick the kind of momentum Swans do, and with as much colour and texture as they do either.
