    Lyrics:
    I seen a girl
    With a guy
    With hair like yours
    From what I remember
    He took her hand
    And smiled her name
    Her face like yours
    She smiled the same
    From what I remember
    Been so long since last December
    She walked your walk
    She talked like you
    She shimmered strong
    She shined right through
    From what I remember
    I said I seen a girl
    With a guy
    So who I'd seen
    So who am I
    Now I can't remember
    Been so long since last December
    So I'm sending
    Up the ladder
    To the perfect doorfront
    I'm still mighty tiny
    Hoping that you'd be my little godsend
    Because right now I'll take any and blindly
    Before I find another noose to fit us
    Before we choose another hand to hit us
    Let us ask each other
    What's the difference
    Because if you save yourself
    I'll save you all the time
    Open letter to the legiance leering
    Ah, we entertained you
    Why don't you cast your gaze into the moonlight clearly
    Cause my love, my love is a suckerbat
    Before I find another noose to fit us
    Before we choose another hand to hit us
    Let us ask each other
    What's the problem
    Why don't you save yourself
    I'll save you all the time
    Because if you save yourself
    I'll save you all the time
    Now what's to blame
    Save yourself, I'll save you all the time
    Now what's to blame
    Save yourself, I'll save you all the time...
    Please rate my video and tell me if there is anything wrong with it. I realize the lyrics aren't perfect, if anyone has a correct version, that'd be awesome.
    If anyone has any suggestions for more videos for me to put up, preferably from an artist I've already used, PM me.

    A stunning masterpiece! This band is truly revolutionary, a bright shining star in a batch of regurgitation from previous decades. Everything about this song is so originally mixed, you have the dark pulsating beat, and the dark synths in the background, but you have this soulful singing over it that just takes it to another level. I wish TV on the Radio would do more of this, or I'll have to start expanding on this!

    Thats how I began to like all the music I like. Once music like this sticks with you, your stuck! Unlike music that usually hits you off perfectly the first listen, that usually fades with time. What turned me on to TVOTR was how different they were, which makes them better than 99 percent of the new bands out there in my books. Be different, screw what people think, maybe they will understand later. You cant succeed if you care about what people think when your trying to do something new.

    If you can save yourself from the major sh*t, I'll save you everyday from the minor. I hear this song about someone at an extreme place, falling apart. If they can save themself from dying or completely losing it, they will be there, come back to them, be there everyday. At least that's how I see it.

    One of my favorite TVOTR tracks. I know the song in a whole is about a failed relationship, but what does the line "Because if you save yourself, I'll save you all the time" mean? Any thoughts?

  • @Arc.hitectureMusic
    @Arc.hitectureMusic 15 років тому

    TVOTR is electronic rock music done PERFECTLY. The electronics build the emotional underpinnings of the track and the vocals add the soul to the machine as you could put it. I wish people would stop lumping all electronic music as DOOF DOOF DOOF, as much as I love both House and Techno (which was all invented in the US and by Black people). People need to open up their minds and try new things, there is alot that hasnt been done yet musically, or explored. Contrary to what most people say.

    @kowtpr187 Detroit Techno and Chicago House scenes were both defined heavily by black people in the early and mid 80s. Of course they were influenced by Kraftwerk, and various other acts such as Tangerine Dream and the like, and then theres joey beltram and frankie bones from the nyc ciricle. So yes in total there was more than black people, and i even forgot i even made this comment like...2 years ago, and im tired but yes electronic music is a melting pot of cultures and influences.

    @Chainlinkable I agree it's not really relevant that they were invented by black people, but there were no blanket statements; it is true. Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson did more to further the genre than anyone since Ralf and Florian. More love, more peace.
