Now, that you’re leaving
On my last day in Kiev, this song started to play on my mind, luckily I had it on iPod.
Ever since (that was only yesterday remember) It has been playing in my head and in my iPod and on my stereos.
I’ve been writing already about Stina Nordenstam‘s album Dynamite. I still can’t find words to describe how good it is, such amazing productions, such amazing songs. Such a beautiful moods.
This last song wasn’t in my best list for a long time, since so many songs of the beginning are so catching. But somehow it’s sticks to your mind, doesn’t it.
And it reveals this such a beautiful sad hope that lingers around those ahahahaa’s around 1:27 and following distorted guitars. Everything is already said and done, and there’s nothing that can change the way things are…
If thinking the album as a whole, the new editions really suffer of the added “dynamite (soundtrack mix)“. Now that you’re leaving should be the last song on the album. I personally have removed the dynamite mix from my iPod and also kept iTunes from playing it.
I’m turning out the light
Now that you’re leaving
To see things black and white
Now that you’re leaving
To kill you in the dark
To give my last remark
I’ll stay up tonight
Now that you’re leaving
I’m running backwards on a train
All is coming back to me again
A crowd of people in my way
And everyone has got your face
Between what I was
And what I will be
I’m held back by your ghost
And what I couldn’t be
Stina Nordenstam – Now that you’re leaving
