      Aside from the now-old cars, the video looks like it was shit yesterday. They were really on the cutting edge.
      I think of this song on many a windy day.

    One of my brother's friends posted a song by these guys on his Facebook page just after he died. My brother was a fan but we didn't get to discuss them for one reason or another. It has began a very close relationship between myself and this group. Only after this I read about Ben. This is a very special band for me and these songs are fantastic. I will always go back to it.
    I travelled through china with these songs on my headphones this year, it's been fantastic.

    Windmills cut thru
    The void dividing the imagined and true
    The eyes neglect to see what the heart pursues
    But my heart finds a dream in these unseen hues
    In the untouchable
    That's not to say
    That i don't feel the limitations and the
    Drop from the expectation
    It's not naive
    But the heart of creation
    It's the only
    Thing proven true to me
    When the fire's burnin from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around
    Begin the windstorm
    When the fire's burnin from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around
    Begin the windstorm
    Time past has thrown
    Shadows over my shoulder that as ghosts owned
    Movement of my desires lost like a stone
    Cast as a wish into a well with no sound
    No answer at the end
    How can i say
    It's wrong to feel the limitations and the
    Drop from the expectation. it's not naive
    But the heart of creation. it's the only
    Thing proven true to me
    When the fire's burnin from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around
    Begin the windstorm
    When the fire's burnin from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around
    Begin the windstorm

    The heart pursues then my heart finds a dream in me
    It sees you in the untouchable
    That's not to say that I don't feel the limitations and the
    Dropped from the expectation its not lying
    But the heart of creation is the only
    Thing proven true to me

    When the fires burn and from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm
    When the fires burn and from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm
    Time passed has shown shadows of where my shoulder
    That has goes on, movement of my desires
    Lost like a storm, cast out and wished into
    A well with no sound, you'll answer at the end
    When the fires burn and from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm
    When the fires burn and from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm
    When the fires burn and from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm
    When the fires burn and from sky to ground
    Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm

    @MachineManWolf I'm not attacking them for being beautiful, just saying that it has no relation to their talent, a rare opinion in today's music industry. I'm not knocking these guys, don't get me wrong, half asleep is one of the most played songs on my ipod, but I'm able to recognise and understand that not everyone can pick up the subtleties of their style, and to some people the songs will seem interchangeable. Theyre still a fairly young act, and I think they'll keep getting better with time

    @MachineManWolf Some people won't share your taste in music, it's too complex and diverse a concept to state anything as fact. However the modern tendency to create a correlation between 'talent' and 'good looks' is slowly destroying that diversity, blending the rainbow of musical possibilities into one murky shade of grey that appeals to the masses because it's designed to. Having said that, SOSB is a great band, and I think they have the potential to evolve into something uniquely beautiful

    I'm sure if there is a God and he is powerful enough to create everything then I guess it is safe to imagine that he is able to understand physics and science on a level of building blocks. Like a child with Legos. We love to act as if science disproves a God but it is the argument. Who created everything? Including the building blocks. It begs the question. It cannot be proved or disproved so you might as well save your breath. Thanks.

    @mygodDYLAN1 Also, you can superimpose our modern calendar over any year in history as long as 1 year = 365.2422 days. This eliminates all calendar based errors made over the written history of humanity. The Biblical flood was on May 21, 4990 BC using our calendar. Moses led the Hebrews out of Egypt in 1447 BC. The Hebrews settled in the Land of Canaan in 1407 BC. Jesus Christ was born exactly 1,400 years later on October 2, 7 BC, the "Holy" Day of Atonement. He returns on 5-21-2011.

    Religious debates over youtube, really? Religion and god is something man will never know for as long as we exist, so stop arguing your beliefs because everyone has them and everyone's is different. Reality is, most people are close-minded or ignorant, and they're not going to listen what you have to say, they'd rather shove their opinions down your throat.

    Right, because I'm "ignorant" (read: not fooled by) of the bible, I must also be ignorant of the empirical study that is science. Yeah, cool.
    All wisdom comes from man's experiences, his failures and his successes.
    If the Big Man in the Sky is where it all comes from, then he's the reason bad stuff happens too.

  • @HMG5588
    @HMG5588 13 лет назад

    @Invisiblefiyah God didn't create religion. We created religion. We turned the Book of God into many false religions purely out of our own zeal and vanity for power and authority. We did exactly what Satan knew we would do given free will to do it. Hence the need for the final day of humanity's vanity on earth. God will end this world of corruption and create a new Heaven and a new earth free of Satan, evil, sin and death. That process begins in 10 days & ends on 10-21-2011.
