Nabihah Iqbal - 'This World Couldn’t See Us' (Official Video)

[@gedankengarten5575]

I can't stop listening to this. Hear it on repeat for days. Gives me a lust for life and at the same time a pinch of melancholy. 🧡

[@Gerrythesaint]

So true

[@chaquitac3705]

Just discovered it and it’s on repeat. 😉

[@funartcreations2190]

Same!

[@miguelclementino]

Uau

[@propfeusz]

Let's make a word more understood, what is value of us

[@nickfilippos3340]

This song should be played all around the world in loud speakers. I think it captures what it means to be human, something that many of us have long forgotten..

[@loelana5597]

this world couldn’t see us. this world couldn’t keep us.💔

[@zephyr_c137]

This gives me nostalgia for something I didn't experience.

[@KrsJin]

Despite clearly being 80s new wave/alternative in style, this doesn’t feel like it is mimicking it. It feels authentic. And it is incredible.

[@martiandesertboy]

Experimental music isnt mimicking its having inspirations flow through music. I like new wave for its lack of criticism, nothing more triggering to me then a space with critics

[@KrsJin]

@@martiandesertboy Not trying to guess your age but as an 80s kid, I heard tons of criticism of new wave growing up 🤷‍♂️ That genre was definitely not exempt from it. The 90s rolled around and the general populous even seemed to mock it/outright dislike it for a time.

[@cramsa]

Very talented lady... it was poetry.

[@DeathraverX]

A great song to be alone and get lost in.

[@davidpercy]

you can have it all, in return for everything... wow

[@SunstrokeMilitia]

One of the best songs I've heard recently..

[@anakirola9204]

A wonderful song. I am vibing out as we speak. Well Done.

[@Aetheri_Angel]

This music video Is what It is like to Live In London as a spiritual person who Is juggling too much In the City and burning out and all you need is Love, soft parts of Life with Nature and being at Peace with yourself

[@bruceaisher]

Spotify AI recommended this song. The only song so far that has been recommended by it that I have actually liked. Love the New Wave synth and bass!

[@Moondustsmellsfunny]

I adore everything about this and I am currently in love with this artiste.

[@adastra8019]

Nabihah makes the synthesizer flow right into your veins✨

[@costas367]

Greetings from Thessaloniki Greece αγαπητή Nabihah. You are special & CHRIST JESUS watching U. 😊

[@bluesilver6450]

Great 80s New Wave vibes🎹

[@nickfilippos3340]

I am sitting here in the dark, smoking, listening to your poetry, feeling again after a long time... Thank you for this gift, and please keep doing what you are doing. 🖤

[@protezionelettronica]

Crying everytime i listen

[@daipearmain]

[Verse 1] When two-fold silence was the song of love When life lived in dreams and time fell like rain When all the summer flowers were for you and me When life tasted sweet and fate was a friend When all my secrets were yours to keep Stuck inside your beauty, falling in too deep When gentle magic took me by surprise When we felt everything standing side by side Swollen river, swollen eyes Swollen thighs, swollen pride Spring tide pulls you up From the outside inside Give me everything and nothing all at once Let your emptiness overflow Into love's scarce field, ready to sow [Chorus] This world couldn't see us This world couldn't keep us This world couldn't see us This world couldn't keep us [Verse 2] "If death is freedom, then kill me now" She said, as she took his hand Standing side by side before the gates of horn and ivory Before unforgiving destiny Before fate that grants no mercy You can have it all in return for everything You can have it all in return for everything You can have it all in return for everything You might also like Sunflower Nabihah Iqbal Dreamer Nabihah Iqbal Salad Blondshell [Chorus] This world couldn't see us This world couldn't keep us This world couldn't see us This world couldn't keep us This world couldn't see us This world couldn't keep us

[@pustakarileks7404]

It's like sufism poem

[@nickfilippos3340]

Thanks!!

[@percyfree9831]

Beautiful Nab, delightful ` love

This is all I’ve been listening to during my month long mental breakdown that is still on going. Thank you for this ❤️

[@marijnem.5820]

How are you doing?

[@davidrichard8207]

I have this rhythm in my head. One of my favorite album of 2023! I saw her yesterday in Bordeaux. Great performance.

[@jessicameek3837]

I'm obsessed. This whole vibe. I'm here for it.

[@williambattista6676]

Flawless and irresistible. Thanks, Nabihah.

[@bertdebouwer]

A mix of Anne Clark and The Cure, cannot be bad!

[@muenchnerdrei2165]

That was my first thought! I love it 🥰

[@jtothefox]

Hello from NYC - Mona just played this on WFMU, I have never heard of Nabihah until fifteen minutes ago but this song sent me into s p a c e Can't find words but love this. Can't wait for the album ☺️✨🪩🖤🖤🖤

[@68bdbd86]

If Wanderlust and Zest for life had a melody - this would be it

[@aro_uk]

Future classic

[@pustakarileks7404]

How can i remember about ibn arabi's poem when i listening to this song? It's like sufism mysticism, beautiful

[@mawoj93]

Only watching the video for now for some reason (I'm sorry) but it's so great :) I miss London so much.

[@frankmason4574]

Tune of the year

[@andy_sometimes]

[@music-radar]

yes 🤘😄🤘 I've also heard Nabihah Iqbal on #bbcradio6music 📻 Loved her stand in for Tom Ravenscroft Friday #6music show recently. This song 'This World Couldn’t See Us' is astonishing. So happy that it is on #BBC6music B-List #playlist massive rotation ▶

[@andy_sometimes]

[@leciabella9461]

T’Was my pleasure to see Nabihah live tonight in Toronto Canada 🇨🇦…

[@binderman4763]

This sound so much like The Wake, classic late 80s manchester band, which is no bad thing... 🙂

[@Yorkcityknight]

Yep! I hear that too, with a bit of Section 25 thrown in for good measure!

[@Yorkcityknight]

BTW - if you haven't already, I suggest you check out The Occasional Keepers which is the side project of Cesar and Carolyn from the The Wake and Bobby of The Field Mice/trembling Blue Stars/etc kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpOvhoGElq2jlZY

GORGEOUS SONG, VIBE AND MESSAGE -- GRAND BRAVO -- STRAIGHT TO THE HEART

[@drewalexander5276]

Saw the poster, thought I'd check the music. Wow. So pleased with the vibe.

[@desert_holly]

I'm currently listening to this for the second time on kcrw - freaks only. Makes my heart so happy. Truly resonates with me at this very moment. Thank you 🖤

[@Mrpeppino444]

This is so incredibly good Nabihah 😍❤️

[@sirpv22]

These beautiful lyrics evoke a sense of nostalgia, love, and profound connection. They depict a time of enchantment and wonder when life felt like a dream, filled with emotions and shared secrets. The words paint vivid imagery of swollen rivers and eyes, symbolizing the intensity of emotions experienced. The verses explore themes of freedom, fate, and the willingness to give everything in return for love. The chorus, repeated thrice, emphasizes the unique bond shared between the two, one that the world couldn't understand or contain. It speaks of a love that transcends worldly constraints, a love that remains untouchable and beyond the grasp of external forces. The final verse delves into themes of life and death, illustrating a profound and perhaps transcendent connection between the two souls. It suggests a willingness to face even death if it means staying together, holding hands as they stand before the gates of destiny, ready to face whatever comes their way. Overall, the lyrics paint a captivating picture of a powerful and transformative love that defies the limits of this world, leaving a lasting impression on the reader or listener. The emotions conveyed in these verses leave a lingering sense of longing and a desire to experience such profound connection and love.

This song really does have a magical quality to it. Nostalgic yet uplifting, Sentimental yet spontaneous. It's a breath of fresh air putting a smile on your face in the moment yet has the aura of taking you back to a simpler time. It just feels like an incredibly layered song and I'm glad to see others having a similar interpretation and reaction to it. Cheers friends
