      Laura M "the idea of loving a person so much that you will destroy their being before you ever let them go or see them with another man." That's not love, that's obsession.

      Simon Ayres Everybody has a different perception of love, some perceive it as dark and morbid, some as light and cheesy. Maybe for you it's obsession but someone else will say it's love, there's no right answer when it comes to define love because its definition is directly affected by our personal experiences and thoughts, so well, you should try to be a bit more flexible about this kind of stuff and clarify it's your personal opinion before you state it as a fact and the one and only truth.

It’s so powerful I couldn’t take back my tears after the movie and now everything makes just sense.

    Léon: You need some time to grow up a little.
    Mathilda: I finished growing up, Léon. I just get older.
    Léon: For me it's the opposite. I'm old enough. I need time to grow up.
    OMG ive known this song I know almost all alt-J songs have a huge hidden message behind them but Ive been listening to this song without actually searching about the meaning, because you know hacing your own perspective of the song really makes it much.. personal. anyway I just finished watching Leon and the ending... I was like BOOOOOM WTF!!?!?!?! this song straight popped up in my mind.

    I still remember I was 13 (2013) when my friend suggested this song to me, tbh I didn't like it but after few listens I was like "oh uh this isn't bad" until I became obsessed with it lol, the next day I went to my friend saying oh god give me more songs please so he sent me "Taro" "breezblocks" "Fitzpleasure" in my MP3 and he also suggested "Radiohead (my favorite band of all time, Pink Floyd, GNR..."
    Now it's almost 2023 and I haven't heard anything from him because we separated in high school but I'm so grateful that I met him, he has changed my life 200% and and changed my way of thinking about life and he opened my eyes to a lot of things especially my musical taste. Wherever you are I wish you a happy life

    People often say: 'oh that's a catchy song' or 'I can't get that song out of my head', and I think yeah, I'm sure they'll forget about it in a few moments though. When people say those same sorts of comments about this song though I really do believe them. I believe them because I TOO CANNOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG. I first heard it in an energizing yoga class playlist and I have been playing it ever since. There's something about this song that words simply can't quite describe; I don't just 'want' to listen to the song, I NEED to hear it. I've never had this with a song before. I also agree with others that watching the film "Léon: The Professional" makes the song even more special.

    All the lonely lost nights of being alone and empty not worth moving forth to go on this song was there for my feelers I recovered from this feeling but I miss feeling something deep with a big heavy heart. I feel like we become disconnected with our love and self so easily. Ps the movie is dope

    Hey Band, I have known you since I discovered Breezeblocks back in 2016 when I was happier. In the last four years, I have been through immense amount of pain emotionally. And I rediscovered you in 2021. I went to see you live in Milan in 2022 with my best friend. I feel like I am ready for what comes next and this song and your music overall is providing a cushion for soft landing. It's cementing my position in the reality that I didn't choose but was forced onto.
    I hope you see this comment and be proud that you have saved a life from going in vain. Bands like yourself and Big Thief are my Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd of our times. Thank you for being who you are.
    A fan.

    Fun fact that I just randomly learned;
    You used to be able to sync the faces morphing. You could press "Alt-J" on your keyboard, it would skip back 7 seconds, and you'd skip the perfect amount of time to have the unmorphing faces... Unfortunately, the skip is now 10 seconds so it doesn't sync up.

    "You won't lose me. You've given me a taste of life. I wanna be happy, sleep in a bed, have roots. You'll never be alone again Mathilda. Please, go, now baby, go. Calm down. I'll see you at Tony's in an hour. I love you Mathilda."

    My favourite part is the beginning.
    Oh, this is from Matilda.
    Feels like a love song.
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda. And she needs you, this is from Matilda.
    Like a love song to whoever this Matilda girl is.

    LYRICS!!!!
    This is from, this is from
    This is from Matilda
    Just like Johnny Flynn said
    The breath I've taken and the one I must to go on
    Put the grenade pin in your hand, so you understand who's boss
    My defeat sleeps top to toe with her success
    Oh, this is from, this is from, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    Just like Johnny Flynn said
    The breath I've taken and the one I must to go on
    Put the grenade pin in your hand, so you understand who's boss
    My defeat sleeps top to toe with her success
    Oh, this is from, this is from, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    Elle a besoin de toi,
    Cela vient de Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    And she needs you, this is from Matilda
    This is from Matilda
    This is from Matilda
    Matilda, Matilda, Matilda
    Alt-J (∆) - Matilda

    I found this song on Spotify, and thought it was really cool that it was called Matilda. One day while listening to the song I walked into a store and stopped the music, I looked up and realised that the song was playing in the store just as I walked in. I don't know what that meant, but all I know was that it made me smile that day.🌻

    it both warms and disturbs me that this movie still has following. i first saw it as a little kid back when it was new..... no idea where my parents were, letting me watch that.... but i loved it so much that when it came on again i recorded it on VHS so i could watch it again. sadly i missed the first ten minutes..... about two or three years later my mom (of all people) gave me an official copy for Christmas....which i loaned to my bestest of friends at the time... a kid named Brett Butler. We both wanted to grow up to be Cleaners.
    I sometimes wonder whatever happened to him. he was pretty cool.
    right this very minute i'm asking myself why I haven't upgraded my VHS to DVD or something.... probably because I watched it soooooooooooo many times I already know it by heart.
    incidentally, and weirdly, Jordan Peterson is how i found this song.
    life... has many strange twists and turns.
