According to last.fm I have listened to this album 521 times in the past 365 days. Seems physically impossible if you do the math. Numbers have always confused me. Words and feelings too. It's like "WTF?" with all that stuff. I never know what to do with any of it.
MARKED FOR DEATH
it was right that we did meet each other in each other’s eyes
it was right that we did see each other in our shadow sides
it was wrong then too that crazy love, loves crazy as it does
and each of us and both of us so crazy; as it was
who else is going to love someone like you that’s marked for death
who else is going to be with you when you breathe your last
who else is going to take my place and hold and keep you safe/sane
who else is going to stay
you were right on time to break your head and make the death bed
you were right on time to crash those galaxies and flat-line
you were right on time to make the light inside of me a life
you were right on time to meet me, crazy love, and watch us die
who else is going to love someone like me, that’s marked for death?
who else is going to be with me when i breathe at all?
who else would ever take your place and hold and keep me safe?
who else would ever stay?

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
