I noticed something about Low Light...

I didn't hear this song till about last year but when I did hear it it was right after I had seen Vanilla Sky. Anyone ever noticed just how much alike they are?! It's crazy how much they have in common, I'll even show you:

Clouds roll by
Reeling is what they say
Or is it just my way?
Wind blows by, low light
Side-tracked, low light
Can't see my tracks, your scent-way back

(Clouds roll by, the movie is called Vanilla Sky. Very small reference but it gets better.)

Can I be here all alone?
Clear a path to my home
Blood runs dry
Books and jealousy tell me wrong
All I feel, calm
Voice blows by, low light
Car crash, low light
Can't wear my mask, your first, my last

(In the movie he got in a car crash and afterwards was given a mask to wear, can't be coincidence.)

Voice goes by
Two birds is what they'll see
Getting lost upon their way
Wind rolls by, low light
Eye sight, low light
I need the light
I'll find my way from wrong, what's real?
The dream I see

(If you haven't seen the movie then I'm not going to ruin it for you, but just know there is an obvious reference at the end of this song.)

Stone wrote the song if I remember right and I think he must have watched Abre Los Ojos.

    OMG Xiangsu!!

    <~~~ totally tripped out right now

    Holy shit! This is awesome. First of all I'd like to say while many just love to hate Vanilla Sky, it is actually one of my favorite movies. I love how it gets more and more clear with each viewing, how you catch things you didn't before. I just love that about it (among other things). I also LOVE Low Light and to see the way these two relate is fuckin awesome! I had never even thought about it till now. WOW! VERY COOL! Thanks for sharing this.

    :)

    This is true. It was Jeff. Being the artsy guy that he is I could see him appreciating this film.

    Hmmm, this is SO interesting!! I love it.

    :D

    interesting point :D
    So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone. And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow. But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself. It is best to compose a poem, an honest longing or simple song of hope.
    That is why I'm singing
  • I thought it was strange that the song, when i say the song I mean the actual music, even had the feel of Vanilla Sky to it. It should have been on the soundtrack, and seeing as how Ed and Cameron Crowe have worked together before and are semi friends I dont think it would have been that hard.
  • i think it's all coincidence ... but what the hell ... :)
