I'm completely hooked on this song. Musically, lyrically, videoically... it's sheer brilliance. There are 3 videos that I know of so far, and they're each phenomenal in their own way.
Eye-popping, jaw-dropping, perfectly timed to the music Rube Goldberg machine version video
Marching band version video (yes, marching band version)
A Cappella rehearsal for the Conan show - gives me goosebumps each time I watch
I'm knocked out by the simple, familiar, inspirational message. And I'm floored by the idea of a song called This Too Shall Pass by a band called OK Go.
Give it a listen. Give it a watch. Go outside for a walk in the sunshine and give it a think.
Live it.
PS: they also have a song called Get Over It. Great gosh on a saltine cracker, they're gonna put me out of a job as a life coach!
Lyrics:
You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down
And you can't keep draggin' that dead weight around.
If there ain't all that much to lug around,
Better run like hell when you hit the ground.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
You can't stop these kids from dancin'.
Why would you want to?
Especially when you're already gettin' yours.
'Cause if your mind don't move and your knees don't bend,
well don't go blamin' the kids again.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.
Let it go, this too shall pass.
Let it go, this too shall pass.
Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
Hey!
Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down. You can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down. You can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)
When the morning come.
