Fugazi Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 The intro piece to the album of the same name. LYRICS: (Out of the darkness And into the bright light We carry the ties That we bind to you) I am the broken blooming bough The countless sunsets of a lost world See me. See me? So alike we are, you and us, soon See me, See you On an island of a shipless crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted September 22 Author Share Posted September 22 Gregorian-like choirs follow a movie reel sound effect, then Floor sings a short, soft verse. I am surprised at the tone of Floor's voice, one that I don't think I have heard her use before. This is the second album in a row where the music builds up very slowly at the start. During the Human Nature tour they skipped most of 'Music', probably on the grounds that the slow build-up doesn't make for a very exciting live performance. In the same vein I doubt that 'Yesterwynde' will ever make it to the setlist. However together with 'Lanternlight', which has about the same tone, they make apt bookends for this (loosely) concept album. Song #2 (An Ocean Of Strange Islands) would also have worked as a starting point to the album, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
