Future Islands - "A Dream Of You And Me"
Directed by Elena Johnston & William Cashion
"A Dream Of You And Me"
I wrestled by the sea

A loneliness in me
I asked myself for peace
And found it at my feet
Staring at the sea...
---
All that glitters is gold
Don't believe what you've been told
People lie, people love, people go
But beauty lies, in every soul
------
I wrestled by the sea
A dream of you and me
I let it go from me
It washed up at my feet
Staring at the sea
------
All that glitters is gold
Don't believe what you've been told
People lie, people love, people go
But beauty lies in every soul
---
If you wait, if you wait for the morning
If you wait, if you wait for the morning
If you wait, if you wait for the morning
If you wait, if you wait for the morning
-
How long, how long
How long, how long
-
I asked myself for peace
I asked myself for peace
I asked myself for peace
I asked myself for peace
-
I asked myself for peace
And found a piece of me
Staring at the sea...

Lucho Salinas i love that part, to me is like the ultimate meaning of life, I hate when ppl want to give up on each other because of ppl lying, being cruel and making mistakes I do believe that every person does mistakes and that doesn’t make them bad or malignant, also I hate when some ppl say that we are not special and they denigrate other people existence and even their own saying that we are just dust when that’s not true at all, our entire existence is a proof that miracles exist how can something so organized such as life can exist in a universe full of chaos? To me it is a miracle, we have to believe we are special, because if we weren’t living, the universe would not even exist. what’s the point of having a cd if u can’t play it? The same logic applies to us, whats the point of having an entire universe without someone to see and appreciate it? That’s why we are so special and i hope i never stop to be amazed by how wonderful ya people are. Sorry lmaooo I got too carried away but this song made me feel and remember all of these thoughts with only these stranzas that u wrote

Hey, internet stranger, you can always talk to me when you're feeling down.
Hey, you, the one hooked with this song. You are not alone, I share a deep love for this song and it's making me very happy, I just wanted you to know, I feel the same way and wherever you are, I know you feel that way too. Knowing that there is someone feeling the same way I do, gives me peace, even if I don't know you, so smile!

Never in my life I cried so much during a concert than during the first couple of minutes of this song. Listening to it, I made it through one of the toughest years of my life, but it wasn't until I saw it live that I understood how much the lyrics meant to me.

Unbelievable! One of my favourite ever songs. Spent about 20 hours listening to this last year.
If Future Islands keeps this up, they are going to find themselves in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (they probably will be touring when they get the news)! Keep it up guys! Keep on creating wonderful art…I am a fan!
😭 ❤️ sound of the heart, so much potential so much hope but lingers so much pain and sorrow.
Heaven.......pure blissfulness. Takes me right back to my youth in the 80's.

This song elicits the calm feeling of spending time with someone that makes you feel safe and at peace. Time flies when you spend time with that person.

I've not been so excited or mesmerized by a band since i was young, that period when you first discover music. There's just a great integrity to their work.
This can be my background music for the rest of the day

Impossible to not be touched by this band ......or maybe by having a heart made of stones

You are consistently breathtaking. Thank you so much for sharing your passion with us. I can't wait to see you in Madison in a few weeks.
Can't get enough of this tune.

I'm just finding them on Austin City Limits... In that sweet spot immediately listening! Like a cross of Billy Idol and Depech Mode or A Flock Of Seagulls or whoever. 80's/90's Synth Pop is maybe my second favorite genre next to Florida Breaks... That synthesizer work, vocals, drums and bass! Glad this is coming back! Major awesomeness and great work dudes if you read. Dang Sam's animated and has some range, very talented. Chills and almost tears they're so good.. This is music :)
