Can't believe this is ten years old - wow, time flies. RIP Ben. Gone so soon, so young. Great music lasts forever.

ben got as many years as we got from him...but WE have the magic of playback...WE can enjoy this music until my great grand kids become great grand parents...RIP BC 2013...

RIP Ben. Great musician and great bands! You'll be missed.

One of my brother's friends posted a song by these guys on his Facebook page just after he died. My brother was a fan but we didn't get to discuss them for one reason or another. It has began a very close relationship between myself and this group. Only after this I read about Ben. This is a very special band for me and these songs are fantastic. I will always go back to it. I travelled through china with these songs on my headphones this year, it's been fantastic.

I hate but love that this is over 10 years old now. 15 most of 2010, 27 now and have seen and understood what life is unfortunately. Wish I still had the mindsight of 15 year old me regardless, RIP Ben, you've left a legacy in music

One of the greatest songs Ever written

I got into this band from this album before I knew about Benjamin, and of course now it holds deeper meaning and emotions, but it really is a genuinely great album. Just beautiful poignant and majestic.

Such poetic lyrics. This brilliant bands music is so rich and melodic. Thank you for the amazing sounds. Thank you for posting 📫

The melody line is great, it feels like I've known it for long time

Just bought a new stereo for the car today. This is the first CD I slid in. ...played it loud. Her voice is so woderful!

i just heard this song today & feel in love with it

RIP Benjamin Curtis :(

81 plays in my iTunes. Thank you for the music, Benjamin.

Lyricism, harmony, good vibes, Perfection 🎶🔥

Escutava essa música em 2010 e ainda me desperta bons sentimentos 💚

Linda canción, me encanta, aquí en Perú doble 9, era la única radio q lo pasaba, la buena música nunca pasa de moda.

I love this video, and I'm glad the the band's getting more of the attention that they rightfully deserve. Seeing them on 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon' was a wonderful treat! :-)

This is music video making at its best. I love the simple imagery of the hand on the heart and how that connects everything in the video as well as the effect that this elemental has had on the boy's life.

Damn son!! I'll always love this band!! :(:(:(:(:(!!!

Windmills cut thru The void dividing the imagined and true The eyes neglect to see what the heart pursues But my heart finds a dream in these unseen hues In the untouchable That's not to say That i don't feel the limitations and the Drop from the expectation It's not naive But the heart of creation It's the only Thing proven true to me When the fire's burnin from sky to ground Swing my weight around Begin the windstorm When the fire's burnin from sky to ground Swing my weight around Begin the windstorm Time past has thrown Shadows over my shoulder that as ghosts owned Movement of my desires lost like a stone Cast as a wish into a well with no sound No answer at the end How can i say It's wrong to feel the limitations and the Drop from the expectation. it's not naive But the heart of creation. it's the only Thing proven true to me When the fire's burnin from sky to ground Swing my weight around Begin the windstorm When the fire's burnin from sky to ground Swing my weight around Begin the windstorm

Ive Missed this Band.

I love this.

If heaven had a voice & this was it, i'd not be saddened by slipping away...

Amazing song

Windstorm] Wind mills cut through, the voids of hiding the Imagine then truth the eyes neglect to see what The heart pursues then my heart finds a dream in me It sees you in the untouchable That's not to say that I don't feel the limitations and the Dropped from the expectation its not lying But the heart of creation is the only Thing proven true to me When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm Time passed has shown shadows of where my shoulder That has goes on, movement of my desires Lost like a storm, cast out and wished into A well with no sound, you'll answer at the end When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm When the fires burn and from sky to ground Swing my weight around, begin the windstorm

does anybody know the name of the actor who plays the spinning guy?

Conheci atraves da MTV,e gostei dessa bandinha hehe.

I could watch this over and over all day. Anyone know who directed this? Also, does the symbol have any meaning?

buen video

TOPSHOP!

@Shipgate Yeah. I did some digging and found what it means. Pretty cool.

@j0ey96 Can't post the link, but just go to the Stereogum website and search SVIIB Progress Report :)

COCTEAU TWINS IS BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

omg rip :( sadness

@keraia2027 where can i see this picture

what a brilliant, deeply insightful critical comment.

I miss you so bad. I hope you are doing well Alejandra.

Totally

@stigmaweb She had a baby a few years ago. Stereogum did a Progress Report on SVIIB a few months before Disconnect came out and there's a picture of him there. :)

It's a pitty that Claudia has left the group. They're so talented!

am i the only one who wonders how long it'll take for this to get sampled in a rap song? seriously, the drum track at 2:53...

Kinda weird how the guy and the kid do actually look alike :D

The guy in front of the washing and dryer machine is he from DIIV.

@abetrasken It's not like they do it on purpose, they can't help that they are both talented and beautiful. Also, they have already become something uniquely beautiful. What are you waiting for?

Is that Claudia towards the end?

2:18 I really wanna know what that crazy symbol means!

Back in 1991

@samno9 Esse video é muito massa meu :) Ainda bem que a MTV passa vídeos que realmente interessam :D

@HMG5588 good 10 day prediction there!!!!!

First thought, Is this english.....? Second thought, yeup and I like it.

i can see this song on skins :)

very Lush esque vocally,

@juanp756 touché.

@HMG5588 this is a good example of what i teach my philosophy students that you cannot argue with someone so closed minded and set on something, they are to far gone

Well got damn.What a comment thread

Gone too soon wtf :(

@mygodDYLAN1 What is the Bible???

I miss the harmonies from the other twin.

@MachineManWolf I'm not attacking them for being beautiful, just saying that it has no relation to their talent, a rare opinion in today's music industry. I'm not knocking these guys, don't get me wrong, half asleep is one of the most played songs on my ipod, but I'm able to recognise and understand that not everyone can pick up the subtleties of their style, and to some people the songs will seem interchangeable. Theyre still a fairly young act, and I think they'll keep getting better with time

@apollothemighty I doubt very much that they make their own videos.....

can't believe Ben is dead...

LOVE Religious debate over.

@MachineManWolf Some people won't share your taste in music, it's too complex and diverse a concept to state anything as fact. However the modern tendency to create a correlation between 'talent' and 'good looks' is slowly destroying that diversity, blending the rainbow of musical possibilities into one murky shade of grey that appeals to the masses because it's designed to. Having said that, SOSB is a great band, and I think they have the potential to evolve into something uniquely beautiful

They seem awfully hipster-ish, but I can't help but like their songs.

I am so angry and sad

OMBI THEAEO

The juxtaposition of the audio-visual work above and the dialogue below is extreme.

he looks like a jonas brother. o.o just a little bit though.

well obviously the world Ended™, so there's that

@HMG5588 doesnt work like that because humans created the concept of the 12 month year as a cycle god had no idea what month or day it was because he omnipotent he is outside of time and space so his understanding of time is infinite. and even if your right about the dates there was a 4 year period in history were we fucked up the date so the year is TECHNICALLY already 2015

@HMG5588 I'm not sure which Bible you are reading, but the one on my shelf acutally states that no man knows the time or the day when the world will end. You need to re-read your scripture, if you've read it at all.

Please don't give up honey. I'm a Trans Woman and your music gives me hope to keep living in this sht world. Please don't leave us. I love you!

Thumbs up if you cried :o

q( ^-^)p OBRIGADO POR LER O MEU COMENTÁRIO😊

I'm sure if there is a God and he is powerful enough to create everything then I guess it is safe to imagine that he is able to understand physics and science on a level of building blocks. Like a child with Legos. We love to act as if science disproves a God but it is the argument. Who created everything? Including the building blocks. It begs the question. It cannot be proved or disproved so you might as well save your breath. Thanks.

@HMG5588 philosophy doesn't live in ignorance there are lots of people who study philosphy that belive in the bible and god... remeber me in 2 months time

I was sad this guy died until I saw this video and the camera he was holding

@mygodDYLAN1 Also, you can superimpose our modern calendar over any year in history as long as 1 year = 365.2422 days. This eliminates all calendar based errors made over the written history of humanity. The Biblical flood was on May 21, 4990 BC using our calendar. Moses led the Hebrews out of Egypt in 1447 BC. The Hebrews settled in the Land of Canaan in 1407 BC. Jesus Christ was born exactly 1,400 years later on October 2, 7 BC, the "Holy" Day of Atonement. He returns on 5-21-2011.

@HMG5588 lots of diffrent interpretations of what the bible means but the "bible" there is a old testament and a new. it is a collection of documents written by lots of diffrent people from the time of jesus but also written by others hundreds of years apart

Right, because I'm "ignorant" (read: not fooled by) of the bible, I must also be ignorant of the empirical study that is science. Yeah, cool. All wisdom comes from man's experiences, his failures and his successes. If the Big Man in the Sky is where it all comes from, then he's the reason bad stuff happens too.

Religious debates over youtube, really? Religion and god is something man will never know for as long as we exist, so stop arguing your beliefs because everyone has them and everyone's is different. Reality is, most people are close-minded or ignorant, and they're not going to listen what you have to say, they'd rather shove their opinions down your throat.
