I don't know if you are going to read this and I've seen your video so many times and listened to this song uncountable more times, but I'm here laying on my bed, past midnight, in the middle of some place forgotten by God, just to say thank you for this video. It's interesting that you captured the essence of the song and also the whole essence of Interpol as well. Maybe it hadn't occurred to you before, but I guess the choice of filming the sea/lake/whatever is not just a coincidence. It's on purpose that many songs from Interpol are themed with sea references. And I'm not only talking about explicit references like "Tidal Wave", " Leif Erikson", "A Time to be So Small", " Stella Was a Diver and She was Always Down", but figuratively speaking about the meaning of the sea as inhospitable place, deep blue, lonely and cruel some times. Just like life that can be a conjunction of some "drops" of desperation, frustration, anger, challenges and an out number of feelings that are often not song in the mainstream music. I think they show the crude side of human being, their struggles and questions, all of that emerging from instant connection of the primal urges/instincts of people. Maybe that's why their songs are also so sexy and not so easy to understand or explain, you just feel them. Liebe Grüße aus Brasilien.
Hey dudamonnerat! Wow and thanks for that comment. It goes very deep and I fully agree with you, but also think that especially the sea (for me) is a calm and energetic place. I love the rough sea as I love the calm sea. It`s a place to be alone and also together. Hard to explain. The same goes for Interpol music. It fits so many parts of life. Happy parts and sad parts. Their music is with me since 2004 and I had many ups and downs. During the time I shot this video I was in a really sad state of mind. And as some parts are intentional, many of it just happened and it`s great to see, that so many people still enjoy it. This year I will become a father and I`m looking forward to share this music with my kid so very much.
lichtempfindlich | Filmproduktion I'm so glad you read my comment! I totally agree with you that the duality of the sea can be a very powerful thing. Maybe on my last comment I sounded a bit bitter/sad, but just like you, I also like the calm sea with the refreshing smell of seawater, the quietness and solitude that everyone needs to "recharge their batteries". And I also would like to take this opportunity to say that I'm happy to know you're in a better state of mind and also about your baby that will certainly have a great dad. Rest assured because someone that has this sensitiveness to appreciate music and make art like you, will probably have everything to make his kid feeling proud and lucky. Besides that, I also would like to thank you for making the video from "Mind Over Time", what a killing video! I've never heard that song before watching your video and I must say that became one of my favourite songs from Interpol. I'm working for few months on a project based on this song. It's a kind of script that still don't know if will become a short movie or just a story. I'd like to be able to talk more about it, in case you are interested.
You can't hold it too tight These matters of security You don't have to be wound so tight Smoking on the balcony But it's like sleaze in the park You women, you have no self-control The angels remark outside You are known for insatiable needs I don't know a thing I've seen love And I follow the speeding of starlight I've seen love And I follow the speeding of starswept night Yeah, pace is the trick And to all the destruction in man Well I see you as you take your pride My lioness Your defenses seem wise I can not press And detentions are demised My lioness Can't you hurt it some? Think I hurt it I've seen love And I follow the speeding of starlight I've seen love And I follow the speeding of starswept night And now I select you Slow down I let you See how I stun See how I stun And now I select you Slow down I beg you See how I stun See how I stun And to a the destruction in man And to all the corruption in my hand And now I select you Slow down I let you See how I stun See how I stun And now I select you Slow down I beg you See how I stun See how I stun And now I select you (I've seen love) Slow down I let you See how I stun See how I stun And now I select you (I've seen love) Slow down I beg you I always follow the speeding of starswept night You don't hold a candle You don't hold a candle You don't hold a candle
"And women, you have no self-control The angels remark outside, you are known for insatiable needs" I love this song, 4 years since it's been released and it's still amazingly touching. Interpol rulez :)
Lyrics You can't hold it to tight These matters of security You don't have to be wound so tight Smoking on the balcony But it's that sleaze in a park You women you have no self-control, The angels remark outside You were known for insatiable means I don't know a thing I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starswept night Yeah pace is the trick And to all the destruction in men Well I see you as you take your pride My lioness your defenses seem wise I cannot press And detentions are demised, my lioness Can't you hurt it some, think I hurt it I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight I've seen love and I followed the speeding of starswept night And now I select you, slow down I let you See how I stun, see how I stun And now I select you, slow down I let you See how I stun, see how I stun And to all the destruction in men And to all the corruption in my hand And now I select you, slow down I let you See how I stun see how I stun [3x] And now I select you, slow down I let you I always follow the speeding of starswept night You don't hold... candle.

Correct lyrics for anyone who cares: You can't hold it too tight These matters of security You don't have to be wound so tight Smoking on the balcony But it's like sleaze in the park You women you have no self control The angels remark outside You are known for insatiable needs I don't know a thing I've seen love And I follow the speed in the starlight I've seen love And I follow the speed in the star-swept night Yeah pace is the trick And to all the destruction in man Well I see you as you take your pride, my lioness Your defenses seem wise, I cannot press And attentions are demise, my lioness Can't you hurt it some Think I hurt it I've seen love And I follow the speed in the starlight I've seen love And I follow the speed in the star-swept night And now I select you Slow down and let you See how I stun See how I stun Now I select you Slow now I bet you See how I stun See how I stun And to all the destruction in man And to all the corruption in my hand And now I select you Slow down and let you See how I stun See how I stun Now I select you Slow now I bet you See how I stun See how I stun Now I select you (I've seen love) Slow down and let you See how I stun See how I stun Now I select you (I've seen love) Slow down and let you I always follow the speed in the star-swept night You don't hold A candle (x3)
Wow. This song is like a beautiful special person, that no one can seem to notice, and she/he is slipping away... I heard this song before as a part of a playlist I combined of Interpol, but this is the first time I really listen to this song, I shiver and my body is floating ...
when they say a "band" it's impossible to imagine someone or something more perfectly fitting this term than interpol. they manage to fit drums, bass and the vocals together so amazingly and the emotion, the effect they create is truly heavenly.
you all will laugh..... I love that video so much! I was in holiday in bulgaria....After breakfast I sat on the balcony and watched the seagulls flying over the sea.... and of course I listened to pace is the trick. good memories....
this video... this video it means a lot to me. So many years ago i spent a lot of nights listening to this song and seeing this video... this video represents old me in old youtube
Hello Lichtempfindlich, I know how much you love interpol and I thank you so much for your dedication to this "mission". I only read today your beautiful exchange of ideas with Dudamonnerat. I think that it's really unique that a rock band can stir up such feelings and I think also that It was a great fortune for us to have met them on our way. A very strong hug to your child!! I forgot: both I and you must also thank in particular V.L.M, who would really deserves a monument for his very great and tireless work in spreading the music of this magnificent group.
Thanks for the hug ;-) and the great words. I would love to have more time and maybe make another fan video, but the work in order to get some money is too much right now. I don't like the official videos from Interpol anymore. Since El Pintor nothing good happened (concerning videos). The last great thing was, IMO, Lights. That thing was amazing.
@@giannipaladini2929 yeah. I just saw that too. I don't know why it suddenly got blocked. happened a while ago too, so maybe it will get unblocked again. lets hope so.
If someone thinks that the final "you don't hold a candle" is an idiom, is wrong. This expression is coupled with the beginning "You can't hold it (!!) too tight". The Latins in fact said: "In medio stat virtus"!
Sometimes you hold it too tight, other times you hold it like a candle. Haven't you learned yet that the trick is in the pace? And in between, my lovely Paul, there's a whole world!
i mean, how's it possible for a band to be this GOOD?
Underrated song,album, band. I love hidden beauty .
i would not count interpol to hidden bands
it is compared to the impact that it should have worldwide
just for me. i listen to interpol for 6 months :) why ever,im 37,but... i love the strokes and i didnt recognize about interpol :)
TBH I felt that this album really let me down after the first two releases this album really let me down. Maybe I should give it another chance.
Interpol was massive in its day, not underrated
I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve heard this song and it still amazes me each time
Welcome insomnia - may I introduce you to my friends Interpol and Radiohead
can't sleep making back-up of my laptop
ooh sweet insomnia, welcome my friends :)
+PrettyOdds 2 great bands that I feel worthy of taking my late nights
+PrettyOdds my two favourite bands.
PrettyOdds - Its empirical that if you enjoy Interpol you are more than likely to also enjoy Radiohead! Facts!

u right!

Well put, God has seen your struggles.❤ hold on a bit longer
The end of this song (right after 3:20) is quite amazing. You can feel all the decay the lyrics talk about. Will be one of my Interpol's favs ever.
Agreed, you said what I was thinking.
That ending is hauntingly good.
You can't hold it too tight
These matters of security
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
But it's like sleaze in the park
You women, you have no self-control
The angels remark outside
You are known for insatiable needs
I don't know a thing
I've seen love
And I follow the speeding of starlight
I've seen love
And I follow the speeding of starswept night
Yeah, pace is the trick
And to all the destruction in man
Well I see you as you take your pride
My lioness
Your defenses seem wise
I can not press
And detentions are demised
My lioness
Can't you hurt it some?
Think I hurt it
I've seen love
And I follow the speeding of starlight
I've seen love
And I follow the speeding of starswept night
And now I select you
Slow down I let you
See how I stun
See how I stun
And now I select you
Slow down I beg you
See how I stun
See how I stun
And to a the destruction in man
And to all the corruption in my hand
And now I select you
Slow down I let you
See how I stun
See how I stun
And now I select you
Slow down I beg you
See how I stun
See how I stun
And now I select you (I've seen love)
Slow down I let you
See how I stun
See how I stun
And now I select you (I've seen love)
Slow down I beg you
I always follow the speeding of starswept night
You don't hold a candle
You don't hold a candle
You don't hold a candle
Thanks, it is my favorite song.
Vc só pode ser brasileira, né? Kkkjjk

Insatiable means
Lyrics
You can't hold it to tight
These matters of security
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
But it's that sleaze in a park
You women you have no self-control,
The angels remark outside
You were known for insatiable means
I don't know a thing
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starswept night
Yeah pace is the trick
And to all the destruction in men
Well I see you as you take your pride
My lioness your defenses seem wise I cannot press
And detentions are demised, my lioness
Can't you hurt it some, think I hurt it
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I've seen love and I followed the speeding of starswept night
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And to all the destruction in men
And to all the corruption in my hand
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun see how I stun [3x]
And now I select you, slow down I let you
I always follow the speeding of starswept night
You don't hold... candle. [x4]
"insatiable needs" I believe but good job other than that
Correct lyrics for anyone who cares:

I don't know a thing
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the starlight
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the star-swept night
Yeah pace is the trick
And to all the destruction in man
Well I see you as you take your pride, my lioness
Your defenses seem wise, I cannot press
And attentions are demise, my lioness
Can't you hurt it some
Think I hurt it
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the starlight
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the star-swept night
And now I select you
Slow down and let you
See how I stun
See how I stun
Now I select you
Slow now I bet you
See how I stun
See how I stun
And to all the destruction in man
And to all the corruption in my hand
And now I select you
Slow down and let you

You don't hold
A candle

These are some photogenic fuckin seagulls, man.
A video without humans , wonderfull .
Totally...
Humankind after covid-19
Almost perfect, or maybe completely perfect.
"The angels remark outside." I love it.
Wow. This song is like a beautiful special person, that no one can seem to notice, and she/he is slipping away...
I heard this song before as a part of a playlist I combined of Interpol, but this is the first time I really listen to this song, I shiver and my body is floating ...
im slipping away and no one notices
When I saw them live, only once, I cried the entire time.
Magic.
2021, and this song is still amazing.
Now 2022 and counting...
This footage is awesome and perfectly fits to song.
Looks better than some of their official videos
...yep, almost a decade later and this song is still beautiful.
unbelievable beauty
when they say a "band" it's impossible to imagine someone or something more perfectly fitting this term than interpol. they manage to fit drums, bass and the vocals together so amazingly and the emotion, the effect they create is truly heavenly.
brutal & beautiful at the same time
I fell in love with Interpol thanks to this song.
great vid made me go straight to Johnathan Livingston Seagull in my minds eye, thanks for posting, Safe travels and Safe home to you Friend.
One day I will go to this place. I hope the weather will be the same as in the video : ).
My favourite interpol song
You can’t hold it too tight
These matters of security..
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smokin' on the balcony...
I like to listen to this song in the middle, sitting on my roof, smoking a cigarette. I feel invincible, like nothing can hurt me.
One of best videos on UA-cam and I watched many times over and over again.
Thanks a lot!
Wish best of life for you.
you all will laugh.....
I love that video so much!
I was in holiday in bulgaria....After breakfast I sat on the balcony and watched the seagulls flying over the sea....
and of course I listened to pace is the trick.
good memories....
This is utterly perfect
Great song for a desert road trip at night....fucking magical. My 2nd favorite. (Leif Erikson is 1st...I think?)
+Integra4life nothing can top the Specialist ;)
+Mauricio Reyes The Specialist is great as well as The Undoing. So many gems with this group.
+Integra4life I love sooo many of their songs in so many different ways. Leif Erikson was my first favorite song, but it's always changing.
Leif Erikson is everything...
Leif Erikson is forever my number 1!
I❤ this song
Interpol é top. Dia após dia, audição obrigatória.
Si vive per la musica🍻
footage is perfect.
i was going to say something similar what camera/lens did you use please?
well, since the video is pretty old, the camera I used is out of date now ;-) ... it was the Canon XH-A1 with no changeable lens. good old HDV.
john
this video... this video it means a lot to me. So many years ago i spent a lot of nights listening to this song and seeing this video... this video represents old me in old youtube
The whole thing is fantastic, but man, that shot of the boat near the start really does it for me.
I Begin To love Interpol...Lately
I miss the sound of Carlos in the group, now - this video is sublime - merci
...I can't stop listening to this song :)
Seeing this in 2021
One of my top 5 favorite bands, got to see them 3 times. Twice in Barcelona, once in Berkley.
Years on, I still love this video so much. Thank you.
Many many thanks to you :-)
La cancion que más amo de interpol
❤danke dir da wo der bist . Top
There's a slowed & reverb version of this song that's phenomenal.
There just is no band like this..period
Just at a beach looking exactly like this in the video clip listening to this song. Top
After being a long time huge fan, I finally got to see them a couple years ago. What a foundational awesome band. Love them
q buen tema dios mio
Few songs give me chills while I listen, this song will last forever.
Video is amazing fits so well! Favourite Interpol song to :D
Fantastic band,fantastic song.

love this song.
simplemente uno de sus mejores temas
Interpol Seriously Has The Best Music. It's Just So..Perfect. Different. Paul Makes..Beauty.

this song is so fckin amazing
this song reminds me of my non-existing girlfriend
Damn, this comment is 10 yrs old! That's definitely old for UA-cam comments. Hope you're still around.
You women, you have no self control.
#metoo
Man,you got great taste of humor
Lo logro?
I can not stop repeating this part, the 1:06 its amazing.!
The quality of the video is very good compared to the cameras back then
I gave my best ;-)
These guys are good.

Absolute Genius ♥️
love this song!
ESTA CANCION ES HERMOSA,,,,,ME TRAE EXCELENTES RECUERDOS,,.
