Bright Eyes - Lua (Life Is Strange)

Episode 3 is upon us and here is another fan video of Lua by Bright Eyes! Lyrics below:
I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk
I keep waving at the taxis; they keep turning their lights off
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft
Supplies are endless in the evening; by the morning they'll be gone.
When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend
I get a coffee and the paper; have my own conversations
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit.
And I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we kiss
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
But me I'm not a gamble you can count on me to split
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist.
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
You just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back
Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning is such a drag.
I've got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on the train
If you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
But what was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane.
And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is
What's so simple in the moonlight, now is so complicated
What's so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight

This moment in Chloe's room when they wake up/talk after the night in Blackwell University seems totally suspended in time. SO MAGICAL

[@fabrixx08]

my favorite moment from the game

[@ItsUmbra.]

Hella magical! 💙

[@Yonverpage]

I didn't wanna leave that scenario. I felt so peaceful in the moment, i almost couldn't walk away.

[@SunnyD420]

It was, it gives me nostalgia for something I never do. Sneaking out, waking up to warm sunlight at my friends place, no cares in the world. Having good times.

[@kerisek11]

I actually tried to create this atmosfere. I bought orange LED strip. And u can buy a special lamp for sunset effect too

[@mitch3DG]

Using indie rock as the main genre for the soundtrack was such a great idea. The soft guitar licks and melodies pull at the heart strings. The soundtrack alone won a ton of awards, and I can see why. Beautiful

[@anonymous-sc7kt]

[@John_Aiginitis]

Loved this game. And the scene with Max and Chloe waking up, doing nothing together - just sitting there and enoying their morning. It's gonna sound weird, but they reminded me of me and my best friend. My friend would've been Chloe, he smokes and do punk stuff all the time, but he's good inside, just like Chloe. I haven't seen him for 4 years because he moved to Russia, but who knows.. Maybe he'll come back one day, then I'll accidently get in his way, and then.. POOF! John and Alex are back together! New adventures up ahead!! Who knows.. Life is strange, isn't?

John Skillet dude, i can tell you that real life chloes and maxes are actually a thing, three years ago my one and only best friend left me without a word and when the most important person in my life, my grandma, died, and my parents broke up i just started smoking and being more punk-rock, that is so strange, right? life, is strange

This is my favorite song out of the Life is Strange Soundtrack, here's my list... 1: Lua by: Bright Eyes 2: Spanish Sahara by: Foals 3: Something Good by: Alt-J 4: Obstacles by: Syd Matters 5: Santa Monica Dream by: Angus & Julia Stone 6: Mt. Washington by: Local Natives Idk why I like all these songs but I think its because they are super chill and relatable. This game changed my life and changed my point of view on it. So the songs really help me remember the important lesson this game taught me about excepting fate.

[@Sakinocchi]

The game ended only a month ago or something and I'm already nostalgic TT shows how great of a game this is. I love your videos, they're perfect. Who disliked? You didnt deserve the dislikes at all. Sigh, sometimes I wish I could rewind time and play it like the first time... With the first impression that it sucked from the trailer of the 1st episode, then after To all of You started playing I knew it was going to be a great game, all the wait of 2 to 3 months for every episode, the hype I got even from just watching the trailers... Yeah ok I love this game.

[@killerzen188]

I know what you mean .... The feels listening to this or To all of you are too much

[@Sakinocchi]

+killerzen188 i know right? yep especially "To all of you". I'm so glad I played this game, it introduced me to so many good songs ç.ç sometimes I wish there will be a second season, but then I also hope they won't do it cause maybe it will not be as good as the first one, or worst, it will suck and leave a bad taste :c

[@killerzen188]

+xChibiYunox They will probably make a second season and actually it might be a great idea, I can't imagine that the studio that made life is strange could ever disappoint us. Dontnod forever !

[@Sakinocchi]

killerzen188 Well, if they do make a 2nd season, then I seriously hope it will be even better than the 1st one (damn this game made it to 1st place on my list, surpassing a lot of games) T^T

[@killerzen188]

+xChibiYunox Hope is the only thing that we have now :)

[@claradias151]

I miss waking up after a huge night and reminiscing about what happened, feeling like last night was so incredible and untouchable that it felt now like a distant dream.

[@Yonverpage]

I say this with so much emphasis, this game has been such a pleasure to play. When i finished it, i shit you not, it's all i thought about for a week. It still buggs me to this day how involved i was and emotionally attached i was to Max and Chloe. I genuinely cared about the characters in Life is Strange and constantly pondered my decisions for minutes. I've added multiple new songs thanks to Life is Strange such as 'To all of you' and 'Obstacles' by SYD matters, 'Bright eyes' and 'Santa Monica Dream' and countless others.. The soundtrack in this game was amazing. I could go on for hours about how i feel about this game and much it's changed the way i look at things now, I can easily say Life is Strange is one of the best games i have ever played.

[@ChloePricesNumberOneSimp]

It left me devastated for a week too. All I could think about for a week.

[@raul1899]

Life Is Strange is the best game I have ever played and seen people playing, the hater can dislike all the want, but this a good game, and also teaches life experience to young kids, even if drugs seems like the thing to turn to, it's not, go to friends or parents, or at least someone you trust, drug addition and suicide is not the answer, friendship and love is.

To me, this was most iconic music moment in this entire series. I reflected on it for almost an entire hour. It kicked me right in the feels. The lyrics of this song in the context of this beautiful, intense, and complex story they are trying to tell literally could NOT have been more perfect. Especially when you consider the backstory with Rachel. I mean, really, it just doesn’t get more deep, accurate, or profound than *this particular song.* It was *the* defining moment for me... Although, I will say... when I finally got to play LIS-BTS, as mush as I instantly became obsessed with the song that played during the train ride with Chloe and Rachel, (Lanterns On The Lake-Through The Cellar Door-which I hadn’t heard before and absolutely loved).... I do honestly wish that they had decided to play Luna by Bright Eyes during that scene once again, and chose another scene for the song above. It would have made it even more iconic, the lyrics made even more sense during that train scene- giving it an entirely new perspective, and thus would have also added another meaningful connection between the two stories. To me, this song with *always* be their song. I have never felt so strongly about this when it comes to game characters before. They did an incredible job with the music in this series. That decision, or lack thereof, to play Luna again during the train ride in LIS-BTS, is my one and only complaint about the song placement though-out both of the series. I mean, *really* think about the lyrics when thinking about all we learned and experienced in LIS-BTS. Things like this, Lyrics/Luna I have taken the time to point out certain lyrics that convey what I believe to be the *most* relevant parts, in a song where it ALL fits: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I know that it is freezing, But I think we have to walk. I keep waving at the taxis, They keep turning the lights off. ||>...But Julie/t knows a party at some *actor's* westside loft.......Well it takes one to know one kid, I think you've got it bad......Now it's so complicated....
