Hey Rosetta! - Red Song



There couldn't be a more appropriate music video for Red Song, because watching it is just as captivating as listening to it; the combination of both music and visual is stunning. So, watch it. And listen.

Favorite lyrics: In the black I feel you
In the black I sense
Somewhere in the red, the colours end

You can feel this song on your spine, those warming chills that only happen when something rare hits you. It's an infinite melody of a sound that's both loving and mournful, something with complete resigned passion in it. It's like a numbing acceptance, but with a long history of intensity behind it that's only to be settled to burning coals. The song cuts off just at the right time, so that the loss of the guitar is as haunting as the loss in the lyrics. It makes your lungs unconsciously stop breathing in anticipation and hope of more music that isn't there, causing the ghost of the song to still play in your head.
