This song reminds me of the movie Ikiru by Kirosawa. For those who haven't seen it it's about an old beaurocrat who's wasted his life accomp[lishing nothing in an office who finds out he's got stomach cancer. He starts staying out every night trying to live and feel the joy that he's lacked for so long. This song reminds me of that persuit for life as we all get closer and closer to death.
Oh yes, and go see the movie. It may not be in English or in color, but it made me cry, and think (a lot), and any movie that can do both those things is pretty damn good in my book.
