Soil's Song - Suicide bombers

[KRANG]

do you see the connection?

 

[derbeder]

no

 

[KRANG]

well.. try harder.

 

[the mourner13]

Actually...NOO.

 

[LifeDepraved]

Well I can tell what you mean by the lyrics. But I don't think Jonas meant that.

 

[Khayman666]

The thought had actually crossed my mind briefly once while reading the lyrics, but I figured that was just me being silly.

 

[KRANG]

oh no.. you weren't silly.

it IS about suicide bombers. confirmed from the source

i just wanted to shed some light on the subject, and see if anyone got it by now.

"Time to go
Release the glow"

 

[derbeder]

confirmed by the source? serious??

 

[KRANG]

why wouldn't i be serious?

it's from an interview for serbian magazine butcherian vibe (for which i write)..
http://www.butchersound.com/html/index.html

it was a front page interview with jonas, in which he answerd many so-far-unaswered questions..
probably the deepest and most sincere interview he ever gave.

anyway, he explained couple of song's lyrics from TGCD, and soil's song was one of those..

one more cool thing he mentioned there: if you remember, there were rumours about "slo train co." project with him and mikael from opeth.. it was just for fun, but one of the songs jonas and mikael wrote got on opeth 7'' Still Day Beneath the Sun.. he didn't say which one: Still Day Beneath the Sun or Patterns in the Ivy II.. you guess.. but he wasn't signed as author.. he just said (almost shy) "..oh, it's nothing.."

can you post the interview for us?

A song about suicide bombers? I would have to see the interview, but I somehow doubt that. Although suicide bombers and Islamofascism have been front-page news alot recently,who knows.

 

[Discouraged+One]

the l;yirics are somethin personal, may be jonas wrote them thinkin on bombres, but each person interpret it whatever they like.

 

[Deliverance6]

translation please?....please please please....cmon...Im asking nicely

 

[Discouraged+One]

translation please?....please please please....cmon...Im asking nicely

are you asking me?

ok, i mean that you listen to the song and interpret the lyiric as you want or feel, it doesnt have to be jonas view.

 

[the mourner13]

an answer from Jonas that's interestingI hadn't seen his any post here before...

 

[Katatonica]

i actually did thik of it but discarded the idea...sounded strange

 

[ether]

I though it was something about sucidal bombers or similar too..

see my previous thread about lyrics:

Of course all lyrics are subject to multiple interpretations and a particular image or description can symbolize many other meanings that stand behind it...

 

[Cliche Kid]

I love Jonas..x

 

[Vex Loser]

I actually thought it was about Hurrican Katrina

 

[Animals]

can you post the interview for us?

yes,that would be good..
