...stardust. Stardust floating down gently from the night sky like pieces of dawn-colored snow...laying gently upon the ground with the softness of a dream
This sounds like a song sung by an ancient goddess who has fallen helplessly in love with a mortal, but hasn't told the mortal that she's a goddess, and then the mortal leaves her for someone else for whatever reason and she's trying to make things right again
I’ve always interpreted this song to be about falling in love with someone you assume doesn’t love you back, trying to back out of the relationship so as to avoid falling into deeper unrequited love, and then realising that it isn’t unrequited and staying with the person.
"I took the stars from my eyes, and then I made a map And knew that somehow I could find my way back Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too So I stayed in the darkness with you"
I came to your comment just as she was singing this part and really i never have paid attention to all the lyrics til now and man that gave me massive chills!
she has fallen in love with someone (love has blinded her, thats what "in the dark" means) and shes going through a period of uncertainty as to whether or not the other person loves her back and then she realizes the other person does love her back (has been struck blind, is in the dark too) she feels twilight as that place of uncertainty of not knowing at first . she regains some perspective accepting that unrequited love is the situation and she starts to heal until that moment she realizes the other person loves her back so she decides to "stay in the dark" ie stay blinded by love
'He was my North, my South, my East and West, My working week and my Sunday rest, My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song; I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong. The stars are not wanted now: put out every one; Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun; Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood. For nothing now can ever come to any good.' -auden
This was great, I've been looking for "cosmic variance calculator" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Hilizabeth Cosmic Cajuput - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my neighbour got cool results with it.
Many thanks, been searching for "the cosmic calculator" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Hilizabeth Cosmic Cajuput - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my brother in law got excellent success with it.

I actually have to connect the lyrics of this song and several other songs to different ancient greek myths for my mythology class, so thank you for that lmao
This song has always hit home, it reminds me of a toxic relationship that I did not want to end because I loved them and thought they could change. In the end, no matter how much they wanted to change, they wouldn’t and I had let myself for so long be in the darkness with them until I realized holding onto toxic relationships is what keeps us from growing. This song reminds me of this.
this is it exactly. always in the "twilight" hoping things will get better but they never do
3 года назад
I've gone exactly through this and this song reminds me of that too. This pain, this dark... I've tried for 9 years and failed, failed miserably, like all the women that try to change men or make them more mature. The final blow was when he told me he had a crush on a workmate of his, started texting her and hiding his phone from me. Among other things.... This song is an ode to my defeat love Florence 💓
This song reminds me of my grandparents especially my grandad when he died this song came out and the lyrics just remind me of them miss them love this song makes me emotional
thanks I dunno why its just the chorus where she sings '' the stars, the moon, well they have all been blown out, you have left me in the dark, no dawn, no day, Im always in this twilight, in the shadow, of your heart''
This song is about how she fell in love someone, and when he/she left her, it was like being blind. She couldn't think about anything else, and was blinded to beautiful things because she was left with only darkness.
well, while you are probably right. I think I'm one of those thinking of other weird shit. While the main theme is about a dear person that is no longer there. I relate it with someone that died. A falling star that after giving you so much light, was now abruptly gone. The darkness is the emptiness of the void left by this person that is no longer by any means with her. And becoming the darkness is the state of denial. The sad part is that, even after realizing that she can crawl back from that dark place, she knows that the person is there, in the emptiness of death... by remembering and not letting that person go, she prefers to stay there. A wound that wont heal, because if it heals, it means that this gone person will stay behind in the darkness alone. :( I lost someone dear. This song hurts.
This song is perfect for explaining the structure, appeal and controversy of twilight era romances... I've known the song since I was like 13, yet now I can understand lyrics and it would help me in my pursuit.
This song gave me chills... the adrenaline rushing through my veins. I can't explain how much I love this song. I imagined myself running through a forest, escaping from life. This song playing, the birds flying above in sync. It's just perfect.
I just heard this for the 1st time today & im absolutely overcome. She somehow got the feeling of heartbreak & desolation & being completely lost in love with someone into 1 song. I need to hear everything from this band now lol. What a brilliant, brilliant song
I just asked my boyfriend to listen to this song with me so he let go of the xbox controller and came over to me and sat to listen, and by the time it was half way I realized his online match on CoD had started a minute beforehand. I told him of the fact and he shrugged and said "I know" I swear this is the best boyfriend on the planet
The Way of Life Well, there’s billions of people on Earth you can date 😉 don’t worry about one rejection, there’s so much more interesting ppl on this world.
This is the best song on this album to me. It's so beautiful, and I think it has better qualities than Dog Days Are Over, so I wish this one had been on the radio!
Ths song is so angelic and heavenly.You can never play it too many times. Florence's voice is so powerful. She sends tears to your eyes. i. love.this.song.
I just have to say thank you to The Vampire Diaries that let me discover this awesome band Florence + The Machine with this song called Cosmic Love. Thanks for uploading
Makes me think of Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy. Please do not ask why because I have no idea. This song probably came on the radio while I was reading one day or whatever and the two feel linked
Gosh this song is so powerful, the emotion you can feel in her voice just takes your breath away, it makes me believe the music nowadays isn't completely robotic and emotionless, this is amazing, and she really does deserve more recognition as she's an amazing artist :)
Her music seriously makes me feel like I'm floating on cloud nine, and it is honestly the best feeling in the world! Lol, her voice is just so pure and captivating, it is truly amazing. I'm fourteen and all my friends think that she is weird, I don't think that they understand her, there is a difference between weird and original, and we know for a fact flo isn't like all of those other artist and plus what's wrong with weird? I love weirdness! It makes everything just that more interesting :3
I was singing this song really loudly after school one day, and a mutual friend came up and started singing it along with me. And that is how I met my best friend of four years :)
This song has so much meaning to me, I love it and once I listened to it for hours over and over again. It explained how much she lived him and he left her blind
Ohh. Sorry. Never got around to reading them. I prefer the actual Greek story of Hades and Persephone. But I know a lot of people who've read the Percy Jackson series and really like it!
How do you not have every Grammy that ever existed? You are sooooo damn good! You are a hidden gem. We always pay attention to artists that, compared to you, are complete and utter shit. Everyone should know your name. Your songs have messages and are powerful, unlike some that only talk about sex and money. You, Florence + The Machine, are a gem😄
This is the most beautiful song of all time. The first time I heard this song, I instantly became obsessed with it..and with wanting to learn how to play a symphony drum. That drum part in the song is sooo cool-…DO..DO..DO..DO
The lyrics are so touching and when read just even deeper.. i love the video but can appreciate the song with just the lyrics .. it leaves you to compare it to your own life.
to me this is not a romantic love and I love that this song can be interpreted in different kinds of love. this is a song that will remind me of the loss and love I have for my baby. rest in peace my little blueberry
I like your take on it. Personally for me it's a break up. "A falling star fell from your heart, and landed it my eyes." Sounds like falling in love, right? The person got blinded and does not accept reality, which is, that the person she fell in love with is gone. No happiness, everything is darkness. Then she tries to make a map, but chooses to stay with the memories of her lost love, as the memories are still very strong. Therefore she is stuck in a fake dream instead of moving on :)
This reminds me of Nikita and Michael (show: Nikita) :D right after they kiss (and then BOOM! The music starts from this point on @2:36. At least in this particular scene ) Episode 1x17
I wanted to see the lyrics to this song because I’ve been chanting & drawn to it for years. Initially I thought it was dark. But all she’s talking about is being so I love that it blinds you & the only person who can fill that void is the person they’re in love with. It never leaves.
I love the harp at the end. Like stardust falling from the sky.
oh gee the edgelord is here

...stardust. Stardust floating down gently from the night sky like pieces of dawn-colored snow...laying gently upon the ground with the softness of a dream

I can't explain how this song makes me feel... it's like my heart is about to explode
Huge adrenaline rush
for me it reminds me of picking up garbage from the ground different feelings id say for both of us
My Heart is crying but i love this song ❤️
It's actually exactly what it feels like.

This sounds like a song sung by an ancient goddess who has fallen helplessly in love with a mortal, but hasn't told the mortal that she's a goddess, and then the mortal leaves her for someone else for whatever reason and she's trying to make things right again
That is a beautiful interpretation
That mortal is a fool. But then, they all are.
Search for "Luceafarul" by Mihai Eminescu i hope u find the english version :)
This would sound good for a good music video
Can I make this a story pleeeeeaaaase?!
I can't even with this song.... like when I actually die, this better be what leads me to heaven.
You still thinking that? It still hits 🤌
Peace within and so it shall be.
I'ma take remain nameless...

So perfect 🌞
The best part in this song
Wow, you watched the video too!?
That part makes me cry EVERY DAMN TIME
I came to your comment just as she was singing this part and really i never have paid attention to all the lyrics til now and man that gave me massive chills!
This song makes me wanna run away to a forest and start dancing and singing to this.
This is late but.. It makes me want to run in a open field and see a perfect shooting star
@@urmom2151 same
🥺
This song makes me want to take LSD, strip naked and run after women...
I completely agree with your statement. I would totally do that in a field of wheat or something.
she has fallen in love with someone (love has blinded her, thats what "in the dark" means) and shes going through a period of uncertainty as to whether or not the other person loves her back and then she realizes the other person does love her back (has been struck blind, is in the dark too) she feels twilight as that place of uncertainty of not knowing at first . she regains some perspective accepting that unrequited love is the situation and she starts to heal until that moment she realizes the other person loves her back so she decides to "stay in the dark" ie stay blinded by love
cool, sorry no one responded to your comment for a year.
2:45 is awesome cuz of how she just goes "daaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRK!"

My favorite part
When you get past the beautiful harp, the magically upbeat melody, these lyrics will quietly break your heart
'He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good.' -auden

Such a powerful song. You can feel the passion, the endless devotion the song exudes.

Seems more relevant watching the words, Thanks for the video, really appreciate it! Peace&Love
