The way the song is set out musically is something you don't hear often, but to be honest it's the lyrics and that sense of nostalgia that really does it for me with this song. I could be singing it myself to a number of people, at a number of times in my life. Also, I know I feel enlightened for having King Lovett tell me what kind of music I listen to and why I like this song (I never even knew I listened to rap!). I also appreciate King Lovett's concern, but really, writing on the internet isn't imposing on your life. I can't see that any of these comments are looking for sympathy. Scroll past if other people's experiences offend your delicate sensibilities so much. harmonies | Reviewer: King Lovett | 11/26/08 I am an eighth grader. You people who have had tough relationships need to understand that people don't care. We don't. We sympathize for a few seconds but really, its just a waste of space and time. If you really need to talk to someone about it, get a friend. If you have no friends, then get a shrink and stay the hell out of our lives. The reason that you all love this song is because the harmonies that the "voices" (a lot of them are synthesized) create make the song sound different from normal songs. Most of you are used to heavy bass drum beats and some black guy singing about sex. This song is the exact opposite. It takes those of you with some sense of musicality and expands that sense by taking out all instruments except voices and recording equipment(and, as I said before, synthesyzers). It is about Native Americans It is also about the Holocaust It is also about animals It is whatever you want it to be. hide and seek | Reviewer: austin | 11/23/08 i think this is the perfect song to play to when someone is dieing if i ever make a movie and in it someone that the main person's love one dies this song will be playing. I also think it's a great song when someone is leaving another. It's a sad song but a very very good one. It makes you think a lot and its beautifully unbelievably pulchritudinous. :) I think this is about the holocaust | Reviewer: Jared | 11/21/08 think about it. The song goes perfectly with what happened to the jews. The beginning stanza is talking about the confusion with the Jews when all this stuff just started happening. Dust is beginning to form is about how the jews knew the worst was to come. Then the next stanza talks about the confusion again. Then it talks about how the jews had to hide and the nazis were seaking. The trains symbolize the people getting taken to camps. The sewing machine symbolizes the work they had to do at the camps. Then the next part talks about how Hitler was there all along just waiting to gain power and the party he later changed to Nazi. The next part talks about the jews remembering their good memories, before the TAKEOVER. Another chorus. Now the next part I believe is about hitler. She is talking about how he told everyone it was the right thing to do, he decided it on his own, it's all for the best. Now the next part talks about his speeches and newspaper articles that appeared to get rid of all the jews in germany, with no particular reason for it. Just to gain power. The last part is talking about how he doesn't care a bit about anything that lives, especially the jews. This song is just... mind blowing. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/18/08 This song has the best melodies and the overall sound of the song is just awesome. I love listening to this song. If ever there was a world-wide music revolution, this song would make it happen. Its the sound of life. ! | Reviewer: stacey oxley | 11/17/08 When I first heard this song, I could not find the meaning. After hearing it so many times It reminds me of animals, how they are treated like shit. The part where; 'They were here first' This line always gets me, its true. Good song! what it's about... | Reviewer: M. | 11/17/08 This song was written about 9/11...go back and read the first 2 verses; they really say it all. If you're looking for a "train of thought" try that on for a listen or two. This is a haunting tune; the vocals are very well-layered and interesting... not typically my kind of music, but it has a certain ambient quality that seems to last. I can tell I am quite a bit older than most of the people posting here and just wanted to say to poster 'jj'... You know whats' homo? You watching the OC thats what...so when you get your ansgty little head out of your emo-ass and join the rest of the world, maybe you'll find some solace in knowing that there is people like me out there to let you know where you stand... like a love song | Reviewer: sunangel | 11/17/08 There was once I had a fight with my girlfriend, I played this song, with Tiesto's Remix. This was my translation "where are we? what the hell is going on? the dust has only just begun to form crop circles in the carpet sinking feeling" (What happened to our relationship... Imagining a recently abandoned house, starting to get the dust falling and landing on the carpet... Looking at the dust, slowly falling) "spin me round again and rub my eyes, this can't be happening when busy streets amass with people would stop to hold their heads heavy" (Wake me up, be conscious, why this arguement happened) "hide and seek trains and sewing machines all those years they were here first" (We have been a long time on our relationship, playing childish and fun games before) "oily marks appear on walls where pleasure moments hung before the takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this still life" (The same old spot that we have always been, we made alot of memories there) I sang and cried, even I was a boy, but not a sissy, but it seriously makes me calm and conscious whenever something sad happens on our relationship. Power of Music Blown AWAY | Reviewer: waX | 11/17/08 This song is @#$^ amazing, Lauren Anderson did something similar but not quite as deep in the 80's (i think) called Superman. This just touches me in so many spaces, It totally encapsulates my recent break up and my boyfriend's moving out... everything from the pictures on the wall thats no longer there to the "you decided this" and this is for the best. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Song chosen for My Essay. | Reviewer: Jessica | 11/14/08 I'd have to say I love this song. Our grade 9 english class just read a book "Speak", and we're told to do a essay on the title's significance. We also had to choose a song to go with our essay explaining the main character's feelings. The character is really alone, and see the world in different ways. The summer before school she got raped when her and another boy got drunk, he was a senior and said to be a real pig. The book is about her learning to "Speak", and I think Hide and Seek really go with the book. Espeically the lines "spin me round again and rub my eyes,this can't be happening" resembles the rape in her mind, and "You don't care a bit x3" tells how the boy sleeps with many women and really does not care. Just wanted to say that, and wonder if anyone has read that book, or agrees? :) Thanks. -Jessicaaaat Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages: Previous 10 Pages 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Next 10 Pages | |
