parachutes

justam

Come Back made me cry too. I was driving and I think the driver next me was taken aback.

I wonder if I'll cry when I hear it in a concert too?

Just the last lines alone. Sometimes Ed just has this way of saying something that is just mind blowing to me. I made it to the end and then...just felt...this amazing love for this band!

the last lines are what put it over the top for me in terms of beauty.

i'm listening to it now and i'm still captivated. and the way it rises when ed sings "i won't neeed"....like easy waves. i adore this song so much.

this song is just too much.....can't get enough

Having recently found God and Jesus as my savior, this song means alot to me. I mean, at first hear, I felt almost confused. The music was beautiful, the words were beautiful, but it was like I just wasn't quite sure what he was talking about. I think Ed's found God. I think he has found love for a higher power, and I believe this because it's how I feel in regards to finding a love that powerful. It's definitely NOT about any woman.

interesting take! i can see this being about a woman though...i know i feel the same way about my guy

that's the great thing about PJ's music though....it's so open to interpretation!

*knees give out*

I can't stand it!!!!!


I'm stuck in repeat mode over here. The emotions continue to take over with each listen. It's too much beauty for the tear ducts to withstand. I'm so with you B, I can't get enough of this. I just keep falling deeper and deeper in love...it just keeps getting more and more gorgeous. Somehow both are actually possible??

Also...check the sig. I had to! THIS SONG IS JUST TAKING OVER!
However I must say, even though the lyrics in the cd book say "go" I keep hearing "glow" there. I've listened sooo many times, with the headphones that go directly into my frickin ear and I SWEAR he says "glow".

Well whatever the case...this song definitely makes ME glow.

I'm obsessed by this song. The sound is very unique and listening to the music I can just envision myself floating down to Earth in a parachute.

As far as the influence, I actually think it sounds (at times) similiar to All Those Yesterdays. (I understand Stone wrote the music for Parachutes. Who had the credit for ATY?)

I'm with you on that...the music and lyrics are art.

is it just my way

damn good song.. the lyrics are beautiful, the way the are sung are brilliant, and the music is awesome, and the last, line ahhh so beautiful

The first group I thought of were The Beatles, it's such a beautiful song. I think I could listen to it all day long. It has so much meaning. I looove it! This song more than any other makes me regret that I'm going to have miss pearl jam in TO. God I wish I was going to be there to hear Eddie sing this!
