Do You Realize?? - Sharon Van Etten

[@danhansma3112]

This may be the best cover song that I've ever heard. The song, and the portrayal of the singer in the picture...... hauntingly beautiful.

[@Haroupi]

Lyrics: Do you realize that you have the most beautiful face Do you realize we're floating in space, Do you realize that happiness makes you cry Do you realize that everyone you know someday will die And instead of saying all of your goodbyes, let them know You realize that life goes fast It's hard to make the good things last You realize the sun doesn't go down It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round Do you realize, oh, oh, oh? Do you realize that everyone you know Someday will die? And instead…

Be careful, It can hear you.

[@adgato75]

Bad taste maybe lol. I have just clicked on 10 indie songs in a row and all had overly long intros that segued into twee insufferable lyrics. This is the only one that panned out into something good.

I know this happened a long time ago, but loss hurts and never really goes away. I hope you’re doing okay now. ❤

[@peppermcgowan3552]

This is a song that has such an important role in my own history, I know that I would be a jerk about anyone's covering it, but not Sharon Van Etten. It's like she's that special that she was able to get a painful sweet sad memory and take me back in time 15 years minus the pain and sad that would eventually come out of the situation. It's like being in a dream or a movie in my head while she's singing this. Wow S Van E ❤ Another home run.

2 minutes ago, I was just talking to my friend about the recent passing of his father... Trying to console him that the silver lining is: if it was a positive relationship, whoever passed left something behind. Some way that they affected you while they were alive. Things they taught you, traditions, skills, or just the way they saw things. So they'll always live on, in that regard. That's how I've carried myself through my existence. Then I get on KZbin, click the first recommendation and it's this song... I mean, I think about my own personal death often, but wow...

A great voice, and a great choice to cover, this Flaming Lips song. She also covered The Smiths on "Last Night I Dreamt...". I'll have to catch her in concert though not a big folk fan (I especially like her work before she went electronica). I did like a lot of John Denver's stuff, and a few other recordings of other artists though.

[@loneranger7535]

do you realize that you have the most beautiful voice

[@adintyaannasaidhiakharisma5202]

@Charles Lee Ray what is too much compressed (probably by youtube itself since that how it works everytime you upload it its compressed) makes her voice fake ? the heck you talking about bruh ?

Rewatching “Gortimer Gibbon’s Life on Normal Street”. This song plays during the end credits of the episode “Mel Vs. the Future”. The song’s listing is credited towards the end, but before it did, I tried using Shazam on it to no result until the third or fourth try; it was mistaken for a track called “Between the Worlds” by Terry Lewis. Weird. Then I realized why it couldn’t identify the song and why it’s not available on Spotify- Shazam and Spotify are partnered companies. “Gortimer Gibbon’s Life on Normal Street” is a series on Prime Video, a product of Amazon (of course). Amazon has their own music streaming service, Amazon Music. Song is available there, if anyone is interested.
