    My wife Karen died just a couple of weeks after Mimi. She loved Low and especially Mimi. We grew lots of Sunflowers together. I plan to grow many starting this spring.

    My mother had us walk with her through the back fields of our house to see a few sunflowers in Ontario. Having occupied this earth only 3-4 years, I remember looking up at them in bewilderment, and almost intimidated by the size of em'. We did this a few times, this song brings back those early early memories. A vivid polaroid, I soon won't forget.

    Sunflower is a very lovely song - I pressed a link in a John Connolly post a few minutes ago. I've read some of the comments. Mimi passed some time back. I think John indicated by writing RIP that Alan has passed. I started crying as I listened to the lyrics of Sunflower. RIP to the Low members who have passed. God speed with warmth and love. May you have fields of Sunflowers to gaze upon. 💛

    When they found your body
    Giant X's on your eyes
    With your half of the ransom
    You bought some sweet, sweet, sweet
    Sweet sunflowers
    And gave them
    To the night

    Underneath the Star of David
    A hundred years behind my eyes
    And with my half of the ransom
    I bought some sweet, sweet, sweet
    Sweet sunflowers
    And gave them
    To the night

    Listening to Low and buying their CDs brought me here. A bit snarky but I understand the impact of soundtracks, that's an art unto itself although a bit derivative. Like hearing a Cocteau Twins or Sigur Ros song in a program. We are drawn like moths to discover where that enchantment came from. Visuals and Music together can have a powerful impact.
