This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. It just brings me to tears in a very beautiful way.

The reactions to this song are really sad and show the narrow-mindness of so many people. It literally makes me so sad. Also, they don't know how much words can hurt an artist who honestly put their intimate work out there.. it's a cruel and misunderstanding world.

I've just read your post and I partly agree. Any artist should be free to express what he feels, labels are for narrow-minded people, like you've just said. But I'd like to share my opinion with you... if you don't mind, and it's just my opininon, so feel free to disagree. I think Daniel's voice is incredibly beautiful and strongly suggestive, like always. Great athmosferes, very suggestive as well, which remind the music of the 70es. But I really think this should be called Daniel Guildenlöw Project or something like that, 'cause this is NOT P.O.S. or at least it is no more P.O.S. I have a strong opininon about it. I think this is the last act of P.O.S. But please, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this is crap, I guess my first words are clear: I like it. I'm just saying it has nothing to do with what it was P.O.S. It's somenthing else, something new, which I think anyone is free to say if i'ts better or worse, and who am I to tell if they're right or wrong? I just think this si no more P.O.S., I'd just rather call it with another name, I don'know what, but I just think this should have a new name, and not P.O.S. anymore.

Allright, I really get what you're saying.. BUT I really don't understand that common demand for new names when bands or projects or artists whatever change their style.. Does it matter what's the name? Either I like the music or I don't, I don't really care if it's the same name they've had forever and changed anyway or not.. It doesn't make any difference does it? Also in POS' special case: They've always a band that was EXTREMELY "unstable", every album sounded totally different than before, especially after Remedy Lane.. and the next POS-album will be "back to the roots" by the way with more heavy influences.. so then they're "allowed" to use the name again? Again, I get what you're saying and I'm not trying to hate or anything, I just really don't get why people say that "change your name!"-stuff so often ;-)

Antonio Cortese I agree with you, until the part they should change the name band. This is not happening just with POS.There is a band named Opeth, They used to be a Progressive Death Metal band. Now, they are in the same ways of POS (their sound, it's like to listen one of those cool bands for the 70's). And I like it.

Pang Rico Don't listen to it. Just be respectful with the artist, specially when he has put a lot of effort to express himself in this song, and surely doesn't owe you or anyone else anything. I do like this song. A LOT. Even if it's acoustic and some would consider ir "pop", remember that "mainstream" doesn't make something bad. It just means that a lot of people like it. But it is also original. The lyrics are great, the vocal performances and harmonies are great, and there are many little musical details that make it interesting for me. It doesn't have to be interesting for everyone, but everyone should be respectful about anyone else's work.

I am an old bird Careworn from flying Caught in the down wind far from home I used to fly I was fire Mine was the sky and the sun Maybe I'm too far gone and my wings too beaten and torn (now I'm lost and I'm tired) 'Cause I spin and I stall But I hope if I fall I am falling home To you I should be home now Done with this wild sky My only hope now is falling home I'm falling home I'm falling home I'm falling home I used to fly I was fire Mine was the sky and the sun But I'm too far gone and my wings too beaten and torn (now I'm lost and I'm tired) 'Cause I spin and I stall And I hope if I fall I am falling home Falling home To you

I honestly feel bad for people who instantly disregards music like this because it's not "metal" enough. Those people miss out of an incredible world of great music that, once you start understanding it, will make you appreciate music on another level, a more mature and personal level. I'm not saying that metal lovers have a bad taste in music, but if they would just open up their minds just slightly, their world would be just a bit more wonderful. :)

MrPrawg Exactly. "Soft" songs, songs influenced by other music genres, bandmates with different musical tastes, etc., add SO MUCH diversity and richness to their art. My favorite bands are the ones that explore everything they want and not just play fast, slow, heavy, soft, aggressive, or delicate. The music industry would be so much better if artists and fans alike were slightly more open minded.

MrPrawg most just need the right introduction, lots of metal bands out there which offer diversity from nasty heavy riffs to soul melting melodies distorted and clean, people who limit themselves nothing but the heaviest, in my eyes are naive and ignorant to beauty and grace of the souls, even the heaviest bands write heartfelt acoustic tracks...

Every time PoS releases a new album they change their style and I'm afraid I'm not going to like it... and I LOVE IT! They might be the most versatile band I've ever heard.

Chris Helheim Yea, i can't read this without thinking it says Zoidberg. I do agree, though!

In my opinion, this is Pain of salvation recently being able to tell feelings and thoughts without 21/4, etc., but in a more simple and clear way. If someone listened to PoS for their spirit, he will love this simple, but deep new style.

Very emotional song. Love all their stuff, and this is no different in how magnificent it is. They keep getting better.

Todo dia eu venho aqui ouvir pelo menos uma vez... E depois que eu traduzi a letra ela ganhou ainda mais significado pra mim, depois de ter perdido meus pais.

This is pure beauty, amazing song! I was at their concert here in Curitiba - Brazil, it was beyond any words could describe, thank you, Pain of Salvation for returning to Curitiba!

Everybody has a right to his own guitar ballad in G major. This one is masterly crafted; the vocal harmonies, the subtle structural peculiarities, the dynamics... but above all that, one can tell that this song is very, very personal. Daniel has really put his story and his soul in the music and lyrics of this song for us to contemplate, and the result is pure beauty. Art.

I just need too say, i'm in love with this song.

Awesome song & Awesome Band. I love you guys & your music. God bless!

Such an amazing song! Daniel and Ragnar are a perfect match. Can't wait to hear what will come next after this acoustic EP!

This song leaves you breathless. I can't really understand people insulting PoS for it. Maybe it's not the metal you expected, but it doesn't mean the song isn't good enough. When you listen to this song you can feel - almost touch - the feelings behind these words. It makes me cry and think about the person I love in such a un unusual way... Thank you with all my heart.

This song rules... their voices are amazing together... too bad we won't get more...

I listen to Pain of Salvation, because I look for new sounds and new feelings. This is progressive band, yup?? ...and they always progress, their style is somehow changing. You don't have to love new records, but you can't deny that songs are very good - on high level with very good mix and sound. If you guys want to listen to "Used to" you can do it all the time, but stop being haters - if you want pain of salvation to re-record their ideas - you have chosen wrong band to listen to. Go and check some Iron Maiden (no harm for iron maiden - I love this band also !! ) - you can be sure how will sound next albums. This song is awesome. It has this unique sound and kind of melancholic feeling. I think it's very mellow and mature somehow. It has more positive feelings than for example Cribcaged.

+Soul Strips (official channel) Well you make a great point, but this particular track sounds similar to one million other pop-rock songs manufactured for mass consumption. During the 'Perfect Element', 'Remedy Lane' and 'Be' years those guys managed to blow our minds away with their unique sound and style. It feels like they've given up, they don't try anymore. Do you see our point?

While I agree that PoS did lose a lot of complexity, I think you mix up simplicity and blandness. There is a lot of work in their new style, a lot more than in the average pop song. The ability to perceive and be emotionaly touched by this work and this creativity, the harmonies, arrangements, is probably something you gain with maturity. You don't always need complexity, even though sometimes that's also fine. It does not mean their previous work was inferior. It just means it evolved to something different, more mature, that is in no way comparable to bland pop songs (no harm intended to pop artists, some of them are very talented and do not fall into the "bland" category also). Their style is still unique, and they are still very talented, so I have to disagree with your last statements. That said, I also agree that something was lost in this evolution. In the case of PoS it would be some sort of complexity and sometimes epicness. In the case of other bands that went through the same kind of maturation, like Leprous, it would be freshness and crazyness. It can displease, in that case it just means you don't like the new orientation they took. But you can't say they've given up, they just changed and you didn't. And to be honest I sometimes miss those things too, so don't think I'm considering myself better than you...

+Synthetic The last true albums we had from them was written as a double album. They had written like 25 songs with a loose 70s feel to it. It might not have been what some people wanted, but it's clear from watching interviews that it's what the band (Daniel especially) wanted. And Daniel have talked several times about how he feels that it's wrong to put them in the prog-rock (or prog-metal) category, because he himself feels like their music isn't limited to just that. And now on this upcoming album, it seems like they'll once again try some really complex stuff. Honestly it just feels like they wanted to write something in a different style, and less like they've "given up".

What an amazing band...best song i've heard in a while... cheers! btw progheads stop trying to make bands be what you want them to be :)

Cmon, guys! Cut the crap - it's a great great song. Just because it isn't the old POS, doesn't mean they've lost the music. The acoustic album was absolutely amazing. Now that Daniel's better and set to rock out again, I'm really excited to see what they do next.

Beauty of Daniel never ceases to impress me...

Great song! I heard it in i think 2013 live when POS was playing in Holland. Loved it right away

Ragnar should seriously be a model...he's gorgeous! Of course I don't just like him for his looks lol that's just a bonus. 😄 He's incredibly talented too. His voice is incredible. The first time I heard this song I was impressed but it wasn't until I heard Daniel and him together in "Meaningless" that I realized how great their voices are together. They're so different sounding but the contrast works perfectly. The first time I heard "Meaningless" I was in awe. (That whole album is amazing!) He's a great addition to Pain of Salvation. 🙂

I'm addicted to these voices.... Gee...

Holy crap Pain of Salvation write one song people don't like! DEAD, WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!... oh yeah the last two albums... yeah, I liked them... BUT THIS OHHHH THIS ONE SONG! DEAD! I personally quite like it, simple with some great vocal talent, what I come to expect from Daniel really. Really miss Johan's voice though, but to deny this other guy is excellent is just plane lying to myself. I'll even you out there and say road salt one and two are my second and third favourite albums after Remedy Lane. OMG I must like, not be a tru fan n that. God PoS where's the metal on the acoustic album! Jesus! Have fun berating a group of individuals who have always stuck to creating what makes them happy.

excellent vocal harmonies in a tender acoustic setting. truly well done.

great song !! thanks daniel !! always perfect !!

They are incredible guys! So warm and impressive song. It is good when you feel sad.

Q perfeição, Daniel vc é incrível, vcs todos são, acompanho vcs desde o.inicio obrigado pelas belas e maravilhosas canções, que curam nossas almas ❤

Awesome and deeply resonant. Reminds me a little of Obsidian Ocean just for the vulnerability in Daniel's voice. Can't wait for more new music.

This is beautiful - the harmony ❤

This song is beautiful beyond words.....

A beautiful song by the greatest band. This song makes me feel sad and a little scared for the future of pain of salvation due to the deep and emotional lyrics here just like in the song road salt. I read them as Daniel always fights an uphill battle with if it is worth to keep on going due to not getting more success. Don't get me wrong, success doesn't mean a thing if you sell out which is why I love Daniel and P.O.S so much, they have done everything they wanted to and their way. And it seems that the more art, and the more work and depth you put into something and being unique and true to what you want to do, then you will have less success because it doesn't become easily accessable to a mass audience. They make music for ppl that knows how to appreciate it, ppl that actually take the time to LISTEN and FEEL. No easy cheap thrills to make a buck. Daniel is one of the few people I have most respect for. I hope he stays strong and keeps on walking down that road. I've walked this road so many years I've worn down all my boots, I've cried all tears So many crossroads left behind So many choices burned into my mind Maybe it's not enough Maybe this time it's just too much Maybe I'm not that tough Maybe this time the road is just too rough To take me home To take me home To take me home To take me home But I walk on

Belíssimo!

It's sad that Ragnar time with Pos was not as happy as PoS time having him as a member. No words to describe how talented I think he is, how much he brought to this album, and how he should have stayed because Daniel and him did something amazing.

Ragnar makes this perfect.

Muito bom!!!!!!

PoS is so versatile. I like this just as much as their harder stuff. There's nothing wrong with variety, people.

Can you recommend more music like this ? Ia am looking for more!

All my Respect!

awesome

Merci à vous

This made me want to buy the new album.

It's kinda sad seeing so many people pretending to be music experts and failing at it so hard. If you can't understand the complexity and all the crazy talent needed to write and perform this song, it's your loss. But stop pretending you know better than Daniel himself, because you clearly don't.

I feel this song works better within the context of the album

Outstanding! Any 2015 N.A. tour dates?

I'm actually fairly new to POS and all I've heard from this point is their awesome prog metal albums like Perfect Element and Remedy Lane. I'm a little sad that I hear it's not something the band is going to be really doing anymore, but I definitely respect an artists choice to change up their style.
