    • @Macconator2010

      I think it is because of the money in the Australian music industry in comparison to overseas. Due to less money being invested and made there is less corruption and commercialisation in Australia. There is a standard that everyone has to work towards. Australians know their shit when it comes to music, evident by the fact that an Adelaide crowd once walked out of a Brittany Spears stadium show due to lip-syncing. The audience demands a higher standard, so the artists have to work for it. It shows from the shitty talent shows like X factor and the Voice. Contestants in the overseas versions have been successful in one way or another, in Australia though a winner very rarely has any success what so ever. Only a few names come to mind that have actually made something for themselves. Lol, rant aside, I totally agree. Australian music has a high standard, and that is a standard that everyone involved in Australian music can be proud of. Birds of Tokyo leading from the front. Love these guys, from Violet and Wayside all the way through Broken Bones and Train Wrecks, to When the Night Falls Quiet. Lets hope they keep up the amazing work.

    To me, this is a song about coming into your own, gaining your own responsibilities, and deciding where you belong in the world. It's about moving forward towards the unknown, leaving your past mistakes behind, and knowing, no matter how dark the journey may look, that you must go on. We've got our hopes and dreams as a lantern, and the love of our friends and families fuel those dreams, brightening our path, allowing us to move through uncertainty.
    "In darkness I leave, for a place I've never seen. It's been calling out to me. That is where I should be."

    There is always a subtle feeling to this song that’s always hard to describe when it first hits my ears, but I have found that over the many years I have been listening to this song, it radiates hope. It comes along with an assurance of comfort, even in the darkest of times. I guess you could say it’s what makes this song incomparable to most, because it’s distinct and it is always noticeable wherever you hear it.

    this is a song about revolution and the struggles of all past, present and future generations to embrace concepts of enlightenment and tolerance deemed unacceptable by the world around them. The beauty of this song is how much it makes you reflect upon the events and people of the past, from the Haitians and their struggle against slavery, the French revolutionaries who challenged european feudalism, to MLK and Gandhi who fought for sovereignty and racial equality. "Lanterns" reminds all of us of mankind's never-ending battle for equality amidst the norms and beliefs of each generational society whether social, racial, or sexual-orientation based.

    Hey there, birdsoftokyo . I'm originally from Hobart, and I've been living in Canada for the past thirteen years. I've recently attended a Youth Conference in the nation's capital, Ottawa for the Canadian AIDS society, and I met so many different youth who are all affected by HIV, and they are all incredible souls with so many different passions with just one aim: To raise awareness and get better. This song, Lanterns, reminds me of our struggle, where we represent people from the past, present and (hopefully not) the future who have been suffering; many since they were born. As the youth, we are the next generation to get up and raise a voice to what maybe going against us in life, regardless if it is stigma/discrimination, refusal of human rights or even still being labeled "the gay disease".
    I want to thank you guys for giving me hope for the lyrics and the soft, calming music that you have given us. It's helping me gain a voice, and I want to raise it. To be the best I can. You've given me hope.
    Kind regards.
    PS. Love the beards. Keep it going!

    Lately I've found
    When I start to think aloud
    There's a longing in the sound
    There is more I could be
    In darkness I leave
    For a place I've never seen
    It's been calling out to me
    That is where I should be
    We never carried days on our own
    But now it's up to us to know
    The weight of being so much more
    We will find ourselves on the road
    On we march
    With a midnight song
    We will light our way
    With our lanterns on
    On we march
    Till we meet the dawn
    We will light our way
    With our lanterns on
    As we walk out
    Without question without doubt
    In the light that we have found
    It is finally clear
    Our day has come
    And we'll stand for who we are
    We are ready we are young
    We have nothing to fear
    We never carried days on our own
    But now it's up to us to know
    The weight of being so much more
    We will find ourselves on the road
    On we march
    With a midnight song
    We will light our way
    With our lanterns on
    On we march
    Till we meet the dawn
    We will light our way
    With our lanterns on
    We held the light
    To our faces
    And realised
    We were chasing
    Shadows behind
    Not worth saving
    So burn it bright
    Forever illuminating
    On we march
    With a midnight song
    We will light our way
    With our lanterns on
    On we march
    Till we meet the dawn
    We will light our way
    With our lanterns on
    In darkness I leave
    For a place I've never seen
    It's been calling out to me
    That is where I should be
