Mogwai - Cody

[@shawqiha]

"Sad songs remind me of friends." I miss my friends. From high school. From college. From grad school. From various jobs. I hate how life slowly carries you away from the people you want to be with.

[@simmieroshan3794]

don’t let it take you away from the things you love

[@izsantiago7135]

At least you had friends.

[@danielamusica100]

Life will give you also new experiences, new people, new friends, new moments, new memories.

[@estranoffical1965]

This song holds so much dark nostalgia for me, a teenager yearning for a meaning to life, never fitted in with anyone.. Still never have. An introverted outsider for ever

2002, single and in college.. Coldest winter in ages in a downtown apartment. Listening to this album. Ramen noodles, a 2 liter of Pepsi Diablo 2 all day long w bong hits. A simpler time

[@DarkRev90]

I don't know you u brother. But I feel the smell of your 2002 room, I feel it and it backs me up to how and what I became. Big hug bro..this feeling doesn't have n age. Here we became wht we r. No retreats. Just now I am laying down on my bed listening to this song with a beautiful human being closed to me. There r no ways to describe what we feel , we people from the 90's

[@alternativaliguria]

I lost my mother almost five years ago, for a breast cancer. This song makes me think of her, but in a comfortable way, I am not sad. Thanks Mogwai

[@BearerOfTheCurse666]

Marco Martini you are so strong. i wish be like you.

[@alternativaliguria]

Hold on, Dan. Sometimes life is a bitch, but we can always counterattack :-)

[@BenJamminKraftbc]

My best friend in the world died last week, his name was Cody. Our favorite song we used to listen to late at night before bed time was Close Encounters by Mogwai, while reminiscing of old time i started researching the band. They have an album called Come On Die Young, released the day before my friends birthday :( And the lyrics are way too fucking real.

[@jpxavier3]

Ben Jammin Kraft and Cody is a track from Come on die young...

[@BenJamminKraftbc]

Thats what i said

[@chrisgilliver1]

I've lost a fair few friends over the years and for various reasons this song makes me think of them too. Some wounds never truly heal.

[@godfather89]

A good song for a childhood friend of mine who died last week whose name was ironically enough Cody. The song I think captures him pretty well.

[@DavyVandenkieboom-hv3tr]

Sorry for your loss ❤

[@Δ-Δ-Δ-Δ]

This song is magical, because it makes me see myself as an old man of 87, watching the sky fall into The Earth, as everything blows up. As that happens, I remember all the good times I had.

[@jjg5193]

The world this perfect song was recorded in no longer exists, but I'm glad it remains to remind us of friends.

[@frederickcrocker8272]

I toured Scotland recently, driving through the country sides with Mogwai playing, it was surreal, soothing. Just getting lost within the melodies and the scenery, it just fit, amazing band.

[@aveburyridge7533]

sounds perfect

[@OGRastaTaco]

I miss so many things..Its crazy how much things change. It has happened right before my eyes.

[@geraintthomas7629]

this is why we are born - to absorb this sound into our blood

[@nikkawej2.028]

Well said

[@nibiru2x410]

Words cannot express the raw human energy this makes me create. It makes me want to do this human existence over again. So much I could have made right to make this life better, I could have turned this planet of souls into a better place for them to exist until they move on. I hardly know what I'm saying, but it's what came out.

[@angelospaccarotella4364]

This band started a never ending adventure. This style of music made me branch off and discover many artists and their songs that I may have never been aware of. I've traveled many miles and visited many places listening to my playlist. Mogwai may not be the main bad I listen to, but they started a movement within myself.. and for that I thank them.

[@Blueswailer]

Couldn't have said it better myself. Mogwai was the first instrumental-based(even though this and an assortment of their other songs has vocals) post-rock band I started listening to, back when, as a teenager. Still one of the main ones, but it opened the doors for me to find a grand assortment of other bands in a similar vein. They started a movement indeed.

[@PanosSomethingDoesNotExist]

What happened to post rock with a soul? Why aren't there post rock bands like that any more ;(

[@missionprodigy]

Shōnen Pepe check out her name is calla

[@PanosSomethingDoesNotExist]

Listening to the song Condor and River atm and it sounds nice. Meanwhile another band that blew my mind is Because of Ghosts. Also Yndi Halda and Do Make Say Think both had excellent releases recently.

[@benlilley3792]

Listen to the stoop and Cotton wood firing squad. Similar experience with them x

[@jeroendesterke9739]

I saw them in Phoenix, USA some years ago. I stood right in front of the stage and when they played "Cody", I had tears streaming down my face.

[@chrisvar5160]

I feel it's hard to fully describe in words the depth of this song combined with the number of years i've revisited this 11 year old video; grief, comfort, awe, memories, such a wide array of emotions, so much beauty, heres to another 11.

[@rosenrot1337]

Although I have never met any of you comenters here, I love you all. Our shared experiences of loss and the turmoils of the human experience bring us together for these rare moments of brotherhood. Thanks.

[@sinaarasteh1636]

Of All I Knew, I shed a man tear to a great father I lost. Mogwai is the most humble, poetic and deep band I ever listened to.

[@stevendavies417]

This song and album reminds of driving around the nicer parts of Mallorca at night.

[@javierarias1903]

Steven Davies greetings from a Spaniard :)

[@rosenrot1337]

3 years later and I still cry for the one I lost in highschool. Of all the things I would say to her now, the first would be, I love you. Never let yourself get in the way from saying what your heart wants to. It takes someone passing for us to realize we should never fear of straying outside of acceptable social boundries. This is life man, live how your loved one couldn't, with their death comes your responsibility. Seize the day and always cry once and a while.

[@stellajayne]

I hope your pain has eased in the intervening years.x

[@burninmind]

So two years ago my best friend moved to a country several thousand kilometers away from where I live ... A few days before she left I had a dream of her leaving and in my dream I sat in a corner and listened to this song ... Like literally I could hear this in my dream! An absolute masterpiece

[@gimages24ltd57]

Man I love this song

[@gimages24ltd57]

Hey Gabe

[@millenniafever]

I discovered Mogwai this year [2011]. Great Band.

[@Rh1nn]

"Old songs, stay till the end. Sad songs, remind me of friends. And the way it is, I could leave it all. And I ask myself, would you care at all."

[@Kinshasa9200]

my best friend died yesterday in a car accident. he was only 18 and his name was Cody. when i first met him, i told him about what his name was an acronym for. he thought it was very funny: he had a great sense of humor. i never thought i would see this being played out tho. i miss him so much.

[@hihihaha5639]

Damn this and my joint cured this night for me..

[@Rocksteddybelmont]

my favorite song from mogwai

[@christianschmidt6140]

das ist die bewegendste musik welche ich jemals habe gehört. wunderschön. geht sehr tief...

[@FunnyValentine]

Ist so

[@brianvittachi6869]

This melody makes me stop what I'm doing and just tune out the rest of the world.

[@soothsayer1985]

Come on, die young is one of my most favorite albums of all time.. Not because my name is Cody but because the album musically explains how I pretty much feel all the time. I love Mogwai so much.. I listened to this album the whole flight to San Francisco in 08' to go see them. IT WAS MAGICAL!!! They played in this beautiful grand ballroom.. very fitting for them I believe.

[@homemademusicdude7531]

Cody is a badass name

[@vaughney09]

Reminds me of the summer of 1999 before uni when I was 19! Thank you Mary Ann Hobbs for the introduction x

[@heavytotal1]

I really, really love this song. Its just... Its beautiful.

[@Insupertrampvic]

This song makes me feel like a crystal glass falling, in a thousand pieces. Listening for more than ten years, this huge emptiness that I have inside increases, this melancholy that make the present absent. I would like to fall asleep with this song in the background and do not wake up anymore

[@docthor9811]

SUBLIMAZIONE DEL DOLORE. GRAZIE MOGWAI! 💙*

[@Quiethun]

This song had enough nostalgic feelings already in it 15 years ago when I listened to it in college. Now, it tears me apart.

[@berkana9995]

Oh wow, this song is really lovely.

[@Joey29455]

Saw this live a few months ago... such a beautiful moment in between all the heavy and loud songs.

[@sanjuhan]

De lo que me estaba perdiendo, ¡de muy buena música!

[@jamalan7417]

this song helped me mature in life. When I was down, I would listen to this at a lowly whispering volume, half curled up in a ball on my childhood bed, with the album playing on loop for nights on end. I could never quite put a finger on my malady but the time i spent listening to this will forever be part of me, even as my memories fade.

[@franciscosanchez3491]

Me parece que esta canción es una de las mas logradas de esta superbanda. Esta canción nos deja a todos los que amamos esta musica muy satisfechos. Para mi es uno de sus mejores temas.

[@Lofi.z34]

I just want to sink so far down into myself ... that I'll never find my way out. I don't want to be in this messed up world any longer. God, please just pick me up and take me home already. Please.

[@BloggerMusicMan]

Mogwai at their very best. This is a wonderful piece of music, and not to mention an amazing guitar solo.

The only real way for anybody to understand deeper than black and white emotions is to listen to Mogwai. This band transformed how i look at music back in 2004, and ive never looked back. Props to the most meaningful song in my opinion :)

[@SonicSatori]

Expresses everything I wanted to say to a dear friend of mine who lost his brother. Mogwai has helped me through some pretty rough times

[@xac_0.2]

Pase años preguntándome sobre esta canción. La primera vez que la escuche fue a los 10 años cuando vi skins, en el episodio de Cassie. Recién hoy, con 22 años pude re-encontrarme con aquella nostalgia y tristeza que me transmitió.

[@lucasmaniotto518]

Of all i knew I held too few And would you stop me? If i tried to stop you? Old songs, stay to the end Sad songs, remind me of friends And the way it is, i could leave it all And i ask myself, would you care at all When i drive alone at night I see the streetlights as fairgrounds And i tried a hundred times To see the road signs as day-glow Old songs, stay to the end Sad songs, remind me of friends And the way it is, i could leave it all And i ask myself, would you care at all
