A SIMPLE MISTAKE

think for yourself you know what you need in this life
see for yourself and feel your soul come alive tonight
here in the moment we share, trembling between the worlds we stare
out at starlight enshrined, veiled like diamonds in..

...time can be the answer, take a chance, lose it all
it's a simple mistake to make to create love and to fall
so rise and be your master you don't need to be a slave
of memory ensnared in a web, in a cage

i have found my way to fly free from the constraints of time
i have soared through the sky seen life far below in mind
breathed in truth, love, serene, sailed on OCEANS OF BELIEF
searched and found life inside, we're not just a moment in time...

....can be the answer, take a chance lose it all
it's a simple mistake to make to create love and to fall
so rise and be your master you don't need to be a slave
of memory ensnared in a web, in a cage

there's a real cool text on website so you should all check it www.anathema.ws

Got it yesterday, I really liked it. Better than "Everything"...darker and powerfull. Lyrics are great. Been listenin to it non stop
Check it out!
Cheers,

Irrlicht · July 29th, 2006, 05:41 AM

Thanks for the link, Fateful. What a great song!!!
I have to agree, its better than 'everything' imo, so strong...

It even made me donate as much as I can spare at the moment.

Vincent J. · July 29th, 2006, 06:40 AM

I don't like it, after my first listen

It reminds me of the last few songs of 'a natural disaster' (except for violence) and I find those very boring...

Cerulean · July 29th, 2006, 07:32 AM

MUCH much better than Everything.

It's got a very post rock feel to it... You can obviously hear they've been Mogwai-inspired lately

Demonspell · July 29th, 2006, 09:50 AM

This one renewed my faith in Anathema after Everything, great atmosphere on this track and I agree that there's a huge post-rock influence.

affinityband · July 29th, 2006, 10:30 AM

Im actually not a fan of Anathema at all, but this is great.

Cerulean · July 29th, 2006, 11:55 AM

Wow can't stop listening. Good lyrics, good FX, good melodies, and NOT cheesy unlike Everything.

FatefuL · July 29th, 2006, 01:01 PM

killer! YES ! better than everything altough i liked it so mutch too ( love simplistic stuff )

godly track !

Alcapoth · July 29th, 2006, 01:06 PM

Fateful, THANKS SO MUCH for this post. Man, you have made my day - this new Anathema song is absolutely TERRIFIC! I agree with the majority here, FAR superior to the previous "Everything" (which disappointed me.)

This is good news for me now, I'm totally psyched about this forthcoming release and will now do everything in my power to support the group. I should have anyway considering they are one of my all-time fave bands, but now this song gives me hope for the new album and they do in fact deserve it.

Wow, 6 times in a row listening to it as soon as I downloaded it. The tune, there is just something "ethereal" about it - I can't seem to stop listening to it. I just LOVE the atmosphere and mood that it brings out to me.

Once again, thanks for the post and link. I don't think I'd make myself come across it otherwise (having lost all faith in this band, until now.)

edit: ^^^ Haha, I share Cerulean's sentiments exactly - just came across that...damn good song indeed!

Androz · July 29th, 2006, 02:00 PM

I really liked it, but I liked Everything too

°scarlet° · July 29th, 2006, 02:31 PM

... lovely

Iivil · July 29th, 2006, 03:06 PM

I´m not so crazy about Everything but this new one sounds better.

FatefuL · July 29th, 2006, 03:31 PM

wow.. new cute gal fan up there /\

Vincent J. · July 29th, 2006, 05:30 PM

lol, I'll give it another listen tommorow, since everyone is liking it...
hm...strange...

AngelinaBlakkheim · July 29th, 2006, 08:11 PM

Very good, I like it very much. Love the lyrics.

Alyona · July 30th, 2006, 04:50 AM

I love it! Can't wait to see anathema live again in a few months time.

Vincent J. · July 30th, 2006, 05:05 AM

ok, I like the song much more today than I did yesterday...
I probably had my mind on other things...
anyway, I like it yeah

BlueSky · July 30th, 2006, 06:43 AM

I like the new song a lot but I can't say the same for everything.

Cerulean · July 30th, 2006, 07:24 AM

Judgement, Angelica, Silent Enigma, Dying Wish, Kingdom, Memento Mori, Empty, etc... All good songs, and they range from doom metal to their modern sound

hugot · July 30th, 2006, 11:00 AM

i too didnt like anathemas new style much, i always preferred antimatter... i liked the doomy anathema... but this last two internet-released songs are beyond cool... looking forward to seeing them live in november...

Juniper · July 30th, 2006, 04:34 PM

I feel like it's lacking real inspiration...
They aren't reaching Mogwai's level with this imvho...

Bereavement · July 30th, 2006, 04:53 PM

killer track! thanks for posting this!

I agree with the others. much much much better than Everything...

Everthing is just....hmm.......it sound really bad to my ears

You're really a Pentecost III fan eh..?

I see those songs pop up in your playlist very often.

insidethefall · July 30th, 2006, 10:45 PM

This is a lot better than everything, i'm still not happy with the direction they decided to take (moody post-rock) it just gets a little boring and don't find it as emotional as their heavy floydish stuff. Still not a bad song.
