    Lyrics
    Shine through the light
    So my thoughts won't
    Have to fight
    For your love
    Just to see you in me
    Hurts too much
    Mind fills with the thought
    Love you till I caught
    Fish in the sky
    Impossible to fly
    See you walk away
    Why can't you stay and
    Shine through the light
    So my thoughts won't
    Have to fight
    For your love
    Just to see you in me
    Hurts too much
    High from above
    I see the words of love
    Decay to the ground
    Betray what I've found
    #Slowdive #Shine #Souvlaki #MarcJacobsHeaven

    In my country, no one understands me, since years I wanted to sing shoegaze in Arabic , but I didn't achieve that , it's a disappointment. I hope that Arab youth, especially Moroccan, will do it one day, because the Moroccan nature and the classic ancient architectural beauty harmonize with Shoegaze .💗

    This is one of the best songs ever made. The music video also perfectly matches the song. Every time I watch it I feel overwhelmed by a youthful, nostalgic bliss that touches deep within my soul and makes me want to cry out of happiness. It makes me feel grateful to be alive and to have experienced life. It also makes me think of those who aren’t with us anymore. I will love you forever, Devon. Your spirit lives on through this beautiful song…

      If you're a fan of all music please listen to "Here Come The Warm Jets" by Brian Eno. It's proto-shoegaze from 1974. There are so many elements he used to construct that song that's in shoegaze, including the impossible to distinguish lyrics. That was really ahead of it's time.

    There's a really cool tone the bass and drums create right when the word "see" is sung in the first line, "Just to See, You in Me". The tone rolls in such a way that it pulls me in. I can't describe it any other way. I don't know why I obsess over that one particular second of the song but it hits me every time.

    I first got in to Slowdive's in the mid-90s as shoegaze was on it's way out.. Due to personal stuff going on during the past couple years I somehow missed there reunion. I even saw Neil play an amazing acoustic solo show about 15 years ago here in the US in-between the Mojave 3 stuff. I cannot believe I have never seen this video until now after all these years. It has absolutely blown me away to see the all of the band in what must have been such a great time for them all. Rachel is absolutely gorgeous and what an incredible time for all of them to be so young and swirling around together in a field full of flowers. I'm in love again.. Shine on Slowdive!

      And you listened to Cranes too? Holy shit, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I had like almost all of Cranes albums from Wings of Joy til Future Songs. Alison Shaw has a unique voice, further complimented by Mark Francombe's badass guitar riffs and the bands' drumming. There's nothing like them.

    I think the reason so many people miss their 'youths' is because it was a time where being 'single' and 'creative' was the 'norm' and so you had access to so many other 'single' people. And relationships aren't that complicated at that age. In some ways they were 'perfect' then. The crazy thing is people 18-20 are far less complicated than even people 21-23 years old. When I was 19-20 I had probably had 5 of the greatest friends in that moment one could ever wish for. But then 21-23 happened and people's hearts were broken, selfish habits began to form and so on and so forth, people found new 'cliques' to belong to with better 'leaders' so it seemed.

      human nature is lack of complexities. the world makes people think that shit should be way more complex and this and that than it really is. even though it really isnt at all. thats something a lot of people tend to accidentally let themselves get sucked into, because its how most people are. if youre exposed to that behaviour for extended amounts of time youre extremely likely to become just like them. the error is when people think they dont have enough friends, or want to unknowingly reach out to acquaintances. theres reasons why your friends are your friends and acquaintances are acquaintances. maybe its just me but thats how i see it. people are too rigidly serious and convoluted and shit i just want to lay down and think about shit and make stuff and be with my friends :-)
