When the thorn bush turns white that's when I'll come home
I am going out to see what I can sow
And I don't know where I'll go
And I don't know what I'll see
But I'll try not to bring it back home with me

Like the morning sun your eyes will follow me
As you watch me wander, curse the powers that be
Cause all I want is here and now
But it's already been and gone
Our intentions always last that bit too long

Far far away
No voices sounding
No one around me
And you're still there
Far far away
No choices passing
No time confounds me
And you're still there

In the full moon's light I listen to the stream
And in between the silence hear you calling me
But I don't know where I am
And I don't trust who I've been
And If I come home how will I ever leave

Can Ghosts be black?
{#Ask} 


Oh, yes. According to the german kids book "das kleine Gespenst", Ghosts get black when they whoop around in the sun...

Sonic doo-doo. Compare this song, just for example, to "When A Man Loves A Woman" by Percy Sledge. Unfair? They're both tight little pop songs from the Music Biznis.

Compare a red-tailed hawk to a king penguin.  They're both endothermic vertebrates with feathers and toothless beaks from the avian species.  We've been had!   Good quote.

Wouldn't call that embarassing. To be honest, the Twilight movie has a kickass soundrack.

Quite a likable tune.  Oddly, (and thankfully) this time there are not a lot of comments saying this should be a biker/death/metal tune because of the band name and/or a human skull depicted on the cover, unlike the notes for that Bohren & der Club of Gore tune.
Posted 12 years ago by Proclivities    [ Reply ]
This set so far has a nice, twangy and spooky sound to it. Unique only on RP.
Posted 12 years ago by ziakut    [ Reply ]
Darn, even though I own this song on TWO cd's, I am still bummed I have missed hearing it on RP that past several times it has aired..... (hehee - that's how MUCH I love this song...).  Glad I heard it today - got me up & dancing.

I picture romeo in a vast, underlit hotel suite at the Bellagio overlooking the fountain. The suite is filled with people, all of whom are fabulously beautiful and wonderful friends. The amazing sound system plays RP 24 hours a day, of course.

Don't mess with my fantasy.

I know this song from the Twilight soundtrack, the only thing I liked about the movie.

Posted 13 years ago by eruwenolorien    [ Reply ]
I love the bass line and the atmosphere. This songs sends me off somewhere ethereal. I discovered this song before I saw the movie, so I thankfully do not have the movie association when I hear it.  The song still gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.

That's way too long.

Sorry, Bill and Rebecca, but it's true. This album came out in 2008. You had a listener who was a fan when it came out, or shortly thereafter, and it took you 18 months to "approve" this song?

I can't speak for other listeners, but Radio Paradise opened a world of music to me (while giving me familiar comfort of songs I knew) when I was living in France, where radio is just...ugh. And for several years, RP was enough. However, in the past two or so years, I've had access to new music via other sources, and it's disappointing to see how RP lags behind.

Rant over. It's not my place to judge. I don't have to sift through music all day long. And because I was about to upload a song right before I checked out the comments on this song, well... *holds tongue*

I had only heard this song before on a certain soundtrack...... (Twilight)  But now I have previewed their whole album on Amazon, and I'm thinking they sound like My Morning Jacket meets Dirty Vegas (which are both 2 of my faves).  Thinking I will pick this album up!
