    My wife Karen died just a couple of weeks after Mimi. She loved Low and especially Mimi. We grew lots of Sunflowers together. I plan to grow many starting this spring.

    My mother had us walk with her through the back fields of our house to see a few sunflowers in Ontario. Having occupied this earth only 3-4 years, I remember looking up at them in bewilderment, and almost intimidated by the size of em'. We did this a few times, this song brings back those early early memories. A vivid polaroid, I soon won't forget.

    [Verse 1]
    When they found your body
    Giant X's on your eyes
    With your half of the ransom
    You bought some sweet, sweet, sweet
    Sweet sunflowers
    And gave them
    To the night
    [Verse 2]
    Underneath the Star of David
    A hundred years behind my eyes
    And with my half of the ransom
    I bought some sweet, sweet, sweet
    Sweet sunflowers
    And gave them
    To the night
    [Refrain]
    Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet sunflowers
    Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet sunflowers
    Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet sunflowers
    Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet sunflowers
    And gave them
    To the night

    Sunflower is a very lovely song - I pressed a link in a John Connolly post a few minutes ago. I've read some of the comments. Mimi passed some time back. I think John indicated by writing RIP that Alan has passed. I started crying as I listened to the lyrics of Sunflower. RIP to the Low members who have passed. God speed with warmth and love. May you have fields of Sunflowers to gaze upon. 💛

    Listening to Low and buying their CDs brought me here. A bit snarky but I understand the impact of soundtracks, that's an art unto itself although a bit derivative. Like hearing a Cocteau Twins or Sigur Ros song in a program. We are drawn like moths to discover where that enchantment came from. Visuals and Music together can have a powerful impact.

    I have an amazing story. One day I was driving home, when all of a sudden the Lord came to me in spirit. I felt very close to Him. I knew if I asked him to play any song on the radio he would, I guess to bless my faith.
    So I said "ok, Lord play "Come as you are by Nirvana".
    I turned on the radio and the song started playing right there on the spot, perfectly…
    I started getting flooded with chills like a waterfall, crying, and trembling.
    He stayed with me for 10 minutes in my driveway. until I got outta the car.
    A couple months after that I started getting amazing prayers answered way more often, because it helped me quit doubting when I pray and I was lined up with biblical instructions. It's 6 years later and I still get answered prayers in Jesus name.
