Fuck, Light Years is beautiful and heartbreaking...

    yeah, that's pretty much the line that makes you want to grab whoever you love and hold on real tight.
    everybody wants the most they can possibly get
    for the least they could possibly do

    I swear this song is about early Ten fans who jumped on the alternative, PJ wagon and have since faded as fans or listeners. PJ were but stones and all these influx of initial fans made them stars. The entire song fits.

    The day that just disappeared was that day.

    I love that song, whenever it would play I'd usually just halfway listen to it, I wouldn't skip it but I wouldn't really pay attention either until about a month ago, the beginning verse caught my attention and I thought it was really cleverly written.

    Now I'm hooked. :)

    I am sure all of you have heard it but if you havent, search "light years pinkpop" on Youtube and he dedicates the song to a lady who just died, and even does a little thing at the end of the song for it, its awesome.

    yep, killer song. right up there with release and come back. and maybe nothingman.

    those 4 songs pulled me up when my girlfriend dumped me 3 days ago. great way to start a new year...

    I hear ya man, nothing like a little PJ to pick you up and brighten things up a little bit.

    It is true what they say: Women; can't live with 'em and can't live without 'em. They drive me insane, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

    This song is perfect......

    the lyrics are just beautiful.....I mean, wow.....

    'We were but stones....your light made us stars.'

    That sounds like such a beautiful compliment, that someones light can transform you.....

    to me it seems that when played live, the band always plays this song faster than on the record. And I don't really like that because to me the song loses something. i like the album version better.

    I was thinking about putting that phrase around the tattoo of my kids' names
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?
