Life

i love this song for sooo many reasons everytime i hear it i get goosebumps.. it makes me either really sad or really happy.. i get that way with all our lady peace songs

yes i also get moist

i agree with geekgirl, most of our lady peace's songs either make you happy or sad. I love this song, can't get sick of it. One of those songs that's always empowering no matter who you are or where you stand in life.

i think this song might be in reference to dostoyevsky's crime and punishment...after the main character (rodya) gets busted, the detective's argument for why the rodya shouldn't kill himself is that "life is waiting for you [rodya]. Though, who knows? maybe your life, too, will pass off in smoke and come to nothing. Come, what does it matter, that you will pass into another class of men? It's not comfort you regret, with your heart! What of it that perhaps no one will see you for so long? It's not time, but yourself that will decide that. Be the sun and all will see you. The sun has before all to be the sun." i just thought that it was pretty deep, and a couple of other elements from the song can be related to the song...but now, i'm rambling...this song kicks arse no matter what it means

this is such a good song, its one of my fav. our lady peace songs...

It's a great song. I like Thief and Somewhere Out There too.

I love this song for me it is the song i listen to when i need inspiration, i don't care how corny that sounds. Also if you've ever seen the video for this song it just makes it that much better because the video is able to show exactly what that song means.

this video hit me more than the song itself...but now that i know what the video was, every time i hear the song it makes tears well up in my eyes...

You're just proud you can say Rosmonicov... But I think it goes by the way of Kurzweil and explaining that life is an evolutionary process, according to his belief don't hammer me cause of old Kurzy, and some of the weaker people well fall down, but it takes the triumph of the human spirit to bring yourself up and strike back and make yourself better, a new spirit within a body... sort of a... spiritual machine (hint, hint)... and you will survive
