    it hurts my soul that alan isnt one of the biggest names in the music industry.... he deserves so much more credit. amazing album, after amazing album, and still no recognition from the evil empty void that has become mainstream music.

      Alan is a hero of mine. Era Extrana is one of my all time favorite album. Definitely my favorite winter album. Thank you Alan and Neon Indian friends!

    Lyrics:
    It's been at least another year
    And still I haven't got the chance to say
    Always rolling off the tongue
    Never said but nearly sung about a million ways
    Every photograph and story
    Trickled through the lengthy web of friend
    I over thought but understood
    Distant look but looking good
    And not the other way
    But you fail to remember
    But you fail to remember
    Do I still cross your mind?
    Your face still distorts the time
    With heat struck afternoons long through
    Those idle dreams go back to you
    The echo's seem somewhat displaced
    Ever further from your face, I'm drifting off to
    Bored of mere flirtations
    That's what's made of constellations that I've sought
    Was this only in my head
    Just like most things go misread
    When overthought
    But you fail to remember
    But you fail to remember
    Do I still cross your mind?
    Your face still distorts the time
    Do I still cross your mind?
    Your face still distorts the time
    Do I still cross your mind?
    Your face still distorts the time

    • @chocolatemilk679
      @chocolatemilk679 Před 7 lety +8

      Natalie Mae i think its because the sounds mix better and things are more clearer, but idk thats just me

    • @nataliemae2356
      @nataliemae2356 Před 7 lety +8

      Nah, I totally thought the same thing. It has an edgier sound live, too - the studio version is very glossed over.

    • @chocolatemilk679
      @chocolatemilk679 Před 7 lety +1

      Natalie Mae yeah i agree. the only thing i like better about the studio version of this song would be the vocals. and i think that because the studio version is really glossed over like you said, the sounds dont mix as well as they could have.
      oh and i really liked the way this song sounded when they played it on Jimmy Fallon

    • @nataliemae2356
      @nataliemae2356 Před 7 lety +2

      True, but I think it must be really difficult to sing a song like this live.
      I have to hear that version now. I'm obsessed with this song.

    • @chocolatemilk679
      @chocolatemilk679 Před 7 lety

      Natalie Mae Yeah, i mean i can barely sing in the car lol so i dont expect anybody to sing great live but i was just saying.
      and that version rocks dood, its like the perfect blend between this live version and the studio version imo.
