I could never let go



Fight Bite - Swiss Ex-Lover

I think, at the beginning, it's all heavenly light, like a near-death experience, weird shades of white and red, and the distant voices ring out like some hidden choir. Those soft keyboards, mixing with the vocals to make a sound so sad, so honest, sounding like far off city lights look, blurred in the edge of your vision. The whole song is a slowed down crescendo, and it gives a glimpse of the details of life that we never see. It makes me want to put up christmas lights in the summer, and quit sleeping for a while. I have listened to this song so many times, the world seems to slow down when I play it.

Fight Bite come from the same softly lit landscape as Beach House, and can be found here.

Kind of reminds me of the Twin Peaks stuff that Julee Cruise did. Very nice!
