Cover art for The Season lyrics by Dodos, The

I don't really have some well thought out/eloquently constructed meaning that will melt your face, but i do skateboard and have recently become much more fascinated by longboards because of a company called Original Skateboards. They make these ridiculous longboarding videos with their skate team and they're all pretty artsy and have amazing soundtracks and "the season" was used in one of their videos and it's really beautiful:

I promise it's not going to be some ridiculous video of some rando shooting random shit out of their ass or anything

pacotaco185 I'm so glad that you saw that video also!! I actually longboard and when I saw that music video I was so haunted by the amazing song that I instantly had to find out who sang it and get the CD.

I think this song is about reminiscing about times when a relationship or family was much better than it is in the present time. His "dream" in the first stanza is like his memory of a time many years ago.

I think the desert is like a great expanse, a some sort of obstacle (time? distance?)...

amzing video ive seen this so many times before i have been skating for 10 years (bowl skating) and just about 2 yearss ago i started longboarding and it is just the most amazing feeling hitting those intense speeds in some of the most beautiful places i live in Brooklyn and i go to ithaca to lng boardand the fresh air the speed its amazing i acctually listen to this song while i longboard.

keep free, live your life you only have one
