His reference to this makes me think that he is a soldier dying on the battlefield. He says he does not see Elysium but he is picturing the Bay Hotel. The thing that struck me about this song is that it is so full of joy. I had listened to it a few times before I heard the part about the bullet and the tracer. His love fills him not with grief as he is dying, but with joy. Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. It is a truly beautiful song. First heard it on Smallville OST | Reviewer: The Beholder ------ About the song Disappearing World performed by David Gray David Gray is getting better for each time I hear him. The way he combines slow piano song with faster and harder rock song is perfect. And this song is outstanding. Like you others said, it´s a really sappy song. If you´re feeling low you get lower. And if you´re feeling happy you´re in heaven! :) this song | Reviewer: laura ------ About the song It's Not Easy To Be Me performed by David Gray I discovered this song in Dawson's Creek! (i'm almost ashamed lol) So, a long time ago now... this song sounds true to me, I really like it... there's not lots of french that know it (I'm french) and it was hard to find who sang it! Now I'm just happy, I listen to it everytime! Review about the One I love | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The One I Love performed by David Gray I also think this song is about a soldier dying on a battlefield and feeling the life slipping out of him....thinking about the girl he loves and his regrets at what will never be.....very poingnant and sad...always makes me shed a tear thinking about all the brave soldiers who have gone this route Come and live with me | Reviewer: Miss Emma L Jones ------ About artist/band David Gray I would like to pay tribute to this sweet gem of a singer/songwriter, he really warms my heart and I wish I could just cuddle him and move into a country cottage with him or something like that would be my greatest wish and to look after him too and for him to fall madly in love with me. That would be the tops. Anyway, the reason for my slightly scarry message is because I am studying music myself, so please get in touch, you wonderous man because I love you. Please ring me straight away on 01303 250601 or 01303 231174 or 07504193792. We can go round the churches together looking smug and trying to decide which one is best for our wedding and have a laugh together for the rest of our days and have a family too? Tell me all about your life? It sounds fascinating. Hurry up and come round! I need a hug you delightful beast. I have hot chocolate. Love from Miss Emma Lucy Jones of Folkestone in Kent, age 31, soon to be Mrs Emma Gray and very happy to be so for the rest of my days. Painfully true | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Say Hello Wave Goodbye performed by David Gray Thought the song that defined my last relationship was "Please Forgive Me", but yesterday it turned out to be "Say Hello Wave Goodbye". That was the most painful revelation of my life, and now I can't listen to the album without the waterworks starting. A great album, and a lot of memories... Genius | Reviewer: Rona ------ About the song Freedom performed by David Gray Music is my very soul,discovery of this man has changed my life. such raw expression of soul.n enlightened understanding of the world ,gut felt pain,could be felt and expressed.How can one person hold all facets of touching others.rare,actually unmatched by any other. Amazing | Reviewer: Emma ------ About the song This Year's Love performed by David Gray I have heard this song in so many films or programs and everytime i hear it i just become addicted all over again. Its such a beautiful song and david sings it so well. It's truly an amazing song. elysium | Reviewer: PJ ------ About the song The One I Love performed by David Gray To me the obvious driving power of the song is this "girl" and his feelings for her. Many of you have thought he was being "literal" when he was speaking of the battles, the tracers, and the falling dark. To me these are all premonitions in his mind regarding his own fear, doubt, and mortality. The same intuitions we all feel at certain points in time. The end where he says he doesn't see heaven or hell, just the memory of dancing the night away with his love. You can call this sad, but it is beautiful in regards to the falling darkness decending upon the world, or his life (your choice on the interpretation), and all he remembers or cares about is the one he loves. climbing back up the mountainside | Reviewer: PJ ------ About the song Falling Down the Mountainside performed by David Gray First off the 3rd line in the 2nd verse is incorrectly listed here. I figure maybe 10 people will ever read this, but this is one of the most powerful songs david has ever written. The line is "spouting all that make believe". You can give this many innotations, wether he means love, belief, or something even more mystic. Seems to me this is a prose between lovers who never quite made it. In this day and age of "dating", and fucking.... what is left when real love occurs, especially when it is unexpected, and seemingly overbearing. To me that is the underlying emotion he was feeling when he scripted this, and it is masterfully done. Thank you david for putting into words what so many have felt, yet so few ever really recover from.... the bottom of a broken heart. Hanna Star * | Reviewer: Hanna Star ------ About the song Now And Always performed by David Gray David Gray is a legend I love every song I never have for the one Legend but this one is my Favourite, when I first heard it, at a time of my life when I had met someone very specail and dear to my heart he is overseas I miss him terribly .... we still talk :o) .....

I love it! | Reviewer: Gre ------ About the song It's Not Easy To Be Me performed by David Gray Well, I don't know who writes or who sings this song, but I really like it! I know it was written thinking about superman...but it doesn't seem! je! "It's not easy to be me"...I agree! Sometimes is not easy to be ourselves...this world is getting worse every day! I love this song!! God...heaven sent? | Reviewer: laura p ------ About the song Ain't No Love performed by David Gray "If I believed there were a God", yet in just a few lines later he says "heaven sent" Interesting. "This ain't no love guiding me"...then perhaps he wonders what or who is guiding him ???? Perhaps God looking "down here" at us "so laughable and small"...sounds like someone who is unsure. I believe! Beautiful song...such honesty!

It's for all those that have lost loved ones due to the antidepressant Paxil.

Definitely Vietnam | Reviewer: William L Yates ------ About the song The One I Love performed by David Gray This is truly a great song and the "repo man" is the "Grim Reaper" or God, if you will, but it conjures up images of Vietnam for sure, and a soldier who is dying, if not physically, is dying emotionally naive | Reviewer: barryshreeves ------ About the song It's Not Easy To Be Me performed by David Gray it ain't easy being me either/touches me/it's funny amny of us in america we sick,afflicted,illnesses,chronic pain,abuse emotional pain,but we go out smile make the best of it,but were just dead inside,nothing people could ever say i sas bad as what i say to myself,how do you kill someone who's been dead since age three when they first took the pill?how do you kill the dead,how do you mock the mocked,how do you inflict the inflicted,funny,i my own youth tales of my beuty/looks were an urban legend/never did see it/looked in mirror and ugly person/wierd people think they know us and they know nothing at all,i really do like your records,there are those of us out there who like lighter fair records,spiritual,uplifting records,records that lighten the load of the downtrodden and those o fus who have broken spirits/hearts are broken every day/many a lover has broken my heart/many/but when we start to break each others spirits that disturbs me as a american/i knew a girl she was the shiite/miss her like child misses his blanket/she had flies in her ointment/like lovers with flies in there ointment/were young.we need a baby boom bad.s.s. problem/i do gaze at the stars and wonder is there life out there?>i don'twant to leave earth/i just wonder is there life out there?/i like my records.i like your too/they are simply beutiful beyond words full of "hope" spiritual/open minded records.i always did gravitate to those types of records/thankyou you occupy a very special place in my heart/ naive | Reviewer: barryshreeves ------ About the song It's Not Easy To Be Me performed by David Gray it ain't easy being me either/touches me/it's funny amny of us in america we sick,afflicted,illnesses,chronic pain,abuse emotional pain,but we go out smile make the best of it,but were just dead inside,nothing people could ever say i sas bad as what i say to myself,how do you kill someone who's been dead since age three when they first took the pill?how do you kill the dead,how do you mock the mocked,how do you inflict the inflicted,funny,i my own youth tales of my beuty/looks were an urban legend/never did see it/looked in mirror and ugly person/wierd people think they know us and they know nothing at all,i really do like your records,there are those of us out there who like lighter fair records,spiritual,uplifting records,records that lighten the load of the downtrodden and those o fus who have broken spirits/hearts are broken every day/many a lover has broken my heart/many/but when we start to break each others spirits that disturbs me as a american/i knew a girl she was the shiite/miss her like child misses his blanket/she had flies in her ointment/like lovers with flies in there ointment/were young.we need a baby boom bad.s.s. problem/i do gaze at the stars and wonder is there life out there?>i don'twant to leave earth/i just wonder is there life out there?/i like my records.i like your too/they are simply beutiful beyond words full of "hope" spiritual/open minded records.i always did gravitate to those types of records/thankyou you occupy a very special place in my heart/ Meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The One I Love performed by David Gray "Yes this song is about a soldier dying on the battle field. The lines "as the tracer glides in it gracefull arc", "just the bullets whispering gentle 'mongst the new green leaves", "the next wave coming in like an ocean roar". He mentions doing the twist and shout and turtle dove again. Both were popular during the late sixties so I'm thinking Vietnam. Great song but very very sad.
