    Low music helped me feel through previous loss but also primed me for future loss. It just sounds so much like what losses I experienced younger and then all the more adult losses /deaths or impending deaths I have known as an older person at this point. I am really grateful to an old friend for introducing me to Low in my 20’s. It never becomes irrelevant , even almost 20 years later.

    • @aimlesslost
      @aimlesslost 2 роки тому +3

      I wish Cue the Strings comments weren’t turned off . That song always is a friend when I hear someone’s died , or was there for the death, or they were told they are going to die soon possibly , or I worry about the future in general in terms of loss of life.

    yes and always yes. At the risk of it sounding like a name-drop (i.e. \"I was there when\"), when they played at the black cat in DC in 2010 it was I believe, by the end of the show I found myself in tears (nearly weeping). What a tremendous band, what tremendous contribution to sub-culture and what immense giving to music (as rarely as they are heard)

      I found this in an interview Mimi Parker gave to the online magazine Mojo:
      ======
      After all those words that have labelled Low down the years - slowcore, Mormon, married, quiet - she hits upon the one that fits best. “It’s miraculous.”

    • @marca4443
      @marca4443 Рік тому +1

      @@dbadagna I had no idea she just passed away. What a horrible loss. I didn't read your comment properly at first. Edited my response:
      Obscene is the word. I don't know how one sees "miracle" in this. This is a song about total failure, of a specific kind. A total failure to come close to the beauty of what is perceived. A humbling that is simultaneously a breaking of the knees

    Robert Plant copied this tune, it wasn't a cover.
    Don't get me wrong, he did a good version. It's just that I'm of the opinion that, if you cover a song, you make it your own in some way. His version is almost a facsimile. Same can be said for his take on Monkey.
    The fact that he didn't says a lot about the originals.
    I adore Low. I love that Mr Plant even knows who they are. It's great that a few more folk will know they exist thanks to Bob. Just make it your own next time please.
