/ qtv Montreal buzz band Land of Talk were CBC Q's Friday Live guests performing three songs off of their new album 'Some Are Lakes'. This is 'Young Bridge'.
She is such a brilliant guitarist. It's amazing what a 3 piece band can sound like when you venture outside of power chords. I wish more bands would realize this.
Some are Lakes is one of my favourite guitar albums ever. So much beautiful melody paired with attitude, she holds back singing and lets the guitar take the lead at just the right points. Love it.
I believe it became "Some are Lakes" in the process of submitting the track titles for the album. It was originally "summer lakes" but some one wrote it down wrong and Liz decided she'd keep it.
amazing voice. hope she becomes famous. i know that some songs of her album are part of the soundtrack of the film " 15 love"... wow. she desurves to become famous. very nice voice.
Land of talk - Some are lakes What started at a summer lake A sentence and a name If only for a moment's sake We called it and it came Held it down-the loving heat- Longer than a time Held it down-the loving heat- Softer than a chime We've seen how Sick Wind blows But I've got your bovine eyes I'll love you like I love you Then I'll die Shot the rats and as they ran From the quarry to the tracks Chased them as you took my hand And never gave it back Held it up and felt the wind Blow and miss a chime Found a god and begged it in To fight your body crime We've seen The Sick Wind blow But I've got your bovine eyes I'll love you like I love you Then I'll die I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder We've seen how sick wind blows But I've got your bovine eyes I'll love you like I love you Then I'll die I'll love you like I love you Then I'll die I'll love you like I love you Then I'll die
@Mineav I've seen them live. She did some heavy guitar playing that night. I was hypnotized by her skill. The band knows how to put on a rock show and really get into it. It's fantastic.
I LOVE this song, and have been trying to sing along for a while. Why are the lyrics so hard to decipher? Does anyone have a link to the actual lyrics?

I am completely addicted to this song! It's one of those songs to hear loudly in your car as you hit the road!

Still listening to this in 2023

I still return to this song. Thank you for keeping this up @Q.
Elizabeth Powell frikkin rocks man! She was such a great voice and MAD GUITAR skillz! Much love from Texas!
This song is my religion

One of my favourite songs by them.
I keep coming back for more. :-)
amazing voice. hope she becomes famous. i know that some songs of her album are part of the soundtrack of the film " 15 love"... wow.
she desurves to become famous. very nice voice.
Why do people look up sweet music and then thumbs down it. Hatefull, mean, selfish people they must be. I feel sorry for them.
Bovine eyes....perfection....!
i'm so addicted to these guys right now
love that voice
Land of talk - Some are lakes
What started at a summer lake
A sentence and a name
If only for a moment's sake
We called it and it came
Held it down-the loving heat-
Longer than a time
Held it down-the loving heat-
Softer than a chime
We've seen how Sick Wind blows
But I've got your bovine eyes
I'll love you like I love you
Then I'll die
Shot the rats and as they ran
From the quarry to the tracks
Chased them as you took my hand
And never gave it back
Held it up and felt the wind
Blow and miss a chime
Found a god and begged it in
To fight your body crime
We've seen The Sick Wind blow
But I've got your bovine eyes
I'll love you like I love you
Then I'll die
I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder
I relate, kid, but I'm the one who wants to let you wonder
We've seen how sick wind blows
But I've got your bovine eyes
I'll love you like I love you
Then I'll die
I'll love you like I love you
Then I'll die
I'll love you like I love you
Then I'll die
This band will set the soundtrack of my summer.
How was that summer, 12 years ago?

@Mineav I've seen them live. She did some heavy guitar playing that night. I was hypnotized by her skill. The band knows how to put on a rock show and really get into it. It's fantastic.
They sound great live!

Need more of this!
thanks for posting that video
great song!
Tsss que chido
love the random boot shot at 1:40.
lace up, lizzie!
@Mineav Another great song is Breaxxbaxx. The guitar work on that song is perfection.
First line of the song is "Started at a summer lake" so it's possible.
I never crushed harder on a stranger. I miss Lizzy.
*Lizzie
The lyrics are posted on their myspace page.
i didn't watch this video instead, i watched it as well.
I miss this phase of Land of Talk...
Gorgeous frontwoman, an SG, modified power chords, just a little out of tune after a few strums....love it.
some are lakes, is that a play on words for summer lakes?
yes indeed
I'm sure they will get bigger...
I LOVE this song, and have been trying to sing along for a while. Why are the lyrics so hard to decipher? Does anyone have a link to the actual lyrics?
... and Keanu Reeves on the drums!
sweet fuckin shoes, sweet fucking song
guitar sounds nicely out of tune
@speakeasilys if you think they are the most original band ever, you haven't listened to enough music my friend..
@nickyp28 MR. ANDERSON...
I'm fit, but she looks fitter. Can she run however? Not sure.. One of my favourites too by the way Stacy.
@breebree491 me too, and I'm a Martian.
Anyone know the chords for this tune?
What does that have to do with anything?
She Looks Prettier Live :3
no, actually it's like good music.
Thumbs up for Land of Talk. Thumbs down for Gian.
She seems very fit, eh? Like she could easily take me in a 10k or something...
random
I'd totally do her.
no to be mean grl, but not comparison whatsoever. Land of Talk is the opposite
haha joe he called you a girl
