“In My Time Of Need” by Opeth

I can’t see the meaning of this life I’m leading
I try to forget you as you forgot me
This time there is nothing left for you to take, this is goodbye

Summer is miles and miles away, and no one would ask me to stay

And I, should contemplate this change to ease the pain.
And I, should step out of the rain, turn away.

Close to ending it all
I am drifting through the stages of the rapture born within this loss
Thoughts of death inside, tear me apart from the core of my soul

Summer is miles and miles away, and no one would ask me to stay

And I, should contemplate this change, to ease the pain.
And I, should step out of the rain, turn away.

At times, the dark’s fading slowly, but it never sustains.
Would someone watch over me, In my time of need?

Summer is miles and miles away, and no one would ask me to stay

And I, should contemplate this change, to ease the pain.
And I, should step out of the rain, turn away…

There are times when I wish I didn’t understand this song so well…

We have been treated to a taste of what the forthcoming Steven Wilson live DVD ‘Get All You Deserve’ will be like in the form of “Harmony Korine”. :-) Please do watch as it is absolutely incredible! (Pre-order the limited deluxe edition, which includes the concert on CD as well as Blu-Ray and a DVD size hard-back book, HERE.)

On a more personal note…

For me, this song is a very pivotal and important part of my ongoing personal evolution. It’s embedded in my soul, along with all that I’ve experienced in conjunction with it, and will always be part of me. I hope that something deep in you is touched by it, too. :-)

I have just discovered this wonderfully gorgeous song via the Electronic Music, 70s - Present group on Facebook. The emotions swelling inside… I love being moved like this! The info on the video is as follows:

Title : Moonlight
Band : Mono
Album : You Are There(2006)

MySpace : http://www.myspace.com/monojp

Websites : http://www.mono-jpn.com/

http://www.lastfm.jp/music/Mono

It seems that, after the UK band Mono broke up (listen to the audio of their hit song “Life In Mono” HERE), a Japanese band took up the name (their website has moved, find it HERE). I just listened to their track “Ashes In The Snow” from their album ‘Hymn To The Immortal Wind’ via their MySpace page and, yes, I love it, too. I must have these albums!

“Moonlight” is epic and wonderful. Please do take a listen. :-)

Kickass Cover of the Day: The single most intense dueling-cellos cover of Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” you will hear today, guaranteed.

Holy cats! I can only imagine what this would be like with electric cellos… Two thumbs up!

Sorry for the looooong absence, folks. I just haven’t had the time for Tumblr as of late. :-/ Forgive me?

I return for a bit with my 400th post, which is also the first song I listened to this year. (It’s my theme for 2011.) This is the year, people! I’m going to fly like an eagle…
