Finding references to one of your favourite books in a song by one of your favourite artists is just beautiful. The next time I'm reading The Unbearable Lightness of Being, I'll have this track on repeat.
Forget all the mistakes my love.... They won't be made again. I remember the first time my college gf and I listened to this song while laying on the floor of my studio apartment in San Francisco. We loved each other so fucking much but just couldn't get it right together. We had been broken up for like a month the night she came over and we listened to this song. From that point forward we would often reference how much we wished we could just sail away and be happy together forever. It took me years to get over her. She is married now and we still talk every couple of months. I've yet to find someone I love as much as her.
+AO4YAY0 well at least she moved on from your depressed ass... totally kidding bro hope you can find love again i totally know how you feel. Life is hard if you actually have a heart.
Goddamnit. The most Bright Eyes encapsulating story. Beauty of life, though. I hope you are happy in your own ways, friend, there's another one out there. You'll find her.
so happy to hear this at the end of my day , being stuck in ur head is nothing compared to when u hear conor voice for what it is , raw , pure , and beautiful.
Never knew a suicide pact could be so beautiful :) On a serious note... like most of his songs this is poetry of the highest standard. An inspiration for me to continue writing and playing.
Definately that's what it's about man, he's saying let's die together that'd be nice, gosh man you mean to suggest a line like disappearing on a road like Teresa and Tomas would have no reference to them man? Gosh I can figure that one out on percoset man, gosh man you probably didnt even realize all the deep meaning, or rather nihilism, that book contains huh? Cuz, if you did maybe you wouldnt be posting crappy leading questions like this on Yewtube and thinking you've made some discovery of the beauty of mankind or something gosh go read some Frog and Toad while you're at it. Bud.
Man, I forgot all about this until you commented. Definitely was not in a good place when I said it, just got out of a near-death car wreck and such. Not to excuse myself, that was an awfully shitty thing to say, and I apologize. Much love for the book and the song, much love to you guys, please go on your days with the eventual resolution of an alterior disturbed mind's effects in sight. Sincerely hating myself, Alex
@mosacorp I was wondering whether Old Soul Song (For The New World Order) is about the Soviet invasion in The Unbearable Lightness aswell. ("All the way home held your camera like a bible")?
well I just am reading the ATTENTION err warning is cracking me up a little b/c of good Conors political views on the subject err yes he has saddle creek records and supported internet freedoms I guess I can dig the warning a little in a humble way of not say who owns the music but isn't he a big supporter of free downloading lol

That "let's sail away" Is so heart breaking

I download all my music and I literally can't even download songs over 10 minutes long things like this are a life saver

I cried while reading this. I hope you find someone to love.

This wrecked me

Well done

Beautiful song.

best song writer by far
Oh Ivy... how I miss you
Was walking through school and heard the air vents. I thought they were playing Tereza and Tomas lol
i was listening to this song yesterday in my car
and it got randomly recommended for me today
brn dn
Love it when that happens!! 💜
I wonder if this has anything to do with the Teresa and Tomas from the book "The Unbearable Lightness of Being". It seems somewhat fitting.

Alex H leave him alone douchebag.

Alex H I love you.
Arron Farmer
I love you all... 💜
like Tereza and Tomas
@charias72 yes it was! The man talking between tracks and it just lot A LOT of what makes Bright Eyes so profound and beautiful.
Sometimes the establishment is right. There are some who are too stoopid to survive.
excellent
"or vanish from a road somewhere like Tereza and Tomas, suspended in the bliss" 😭😭💔
You only live once...
Sail away today!
Who wants to escape?....
Buddha Baby
I’m so down...💜
@mosacorp I was wondering whether Old Soul Song (For The New World Order) is about the Soviet invasion in The Unbearable Lightness aswell. ("All the way home held your camera like a bible")?
i love fireworks
Milan Kundera isn't a Russian writer.
Like 222!! 💜
letting off the happiness
I relate, but need my own Teresa to make it real
Deja las fotos en el cajón, mi amor, no las necesitamos más. Ambos sabemos donde hemos estado
There's really no other people he could be pointing to--especially with the foretold "vanish from a road somewhere" which holds cold purpose.
But answer me this, is it Teresa and Tomas as in The Unbearable Lightness of Being? Conor, are you a reader of Kundera?
@shananigans1039
Beautiful, isn't it?
@19CODYAS91
;) I can say that this is actually one of my least favorite songs. But, they are ALL beautiful. I love them all.
what album is this
Letting off the Happiness
@mosacorp of course he is :)
Can I left of spam?
全长里有隐藏音轨
Yeah I know what it's about; it's not a Russian language book, though, 's all I meant :)
@shananigans1039
Oh trust me, I love all his music too. This is just one of my least favorite ones. Doesn't mean I don't like it. lol.
well I just am reading the ATTENTION err warning is cracking me up a little b/c of good Conors political views on the subject err yes he has saddle creek records and supported internet freedoms I guess I can dig the warning a little in a humble way of not say who owns the music but isn't he a big supporter of free downloading lol
Tereza**********
@klkool1 His new album was sadly disappointing.
