The song we have chosen to do is wash. by Bon Iver. We chose it because it is slow paced which creates a nice contrast to the tense and emotional scenes we have planned. Also, the lyrics are subjective, so even though we have a clear narrative each person can perceive something different from the song. For example, upon first listen I thought it was about a girl who was having trouble at home so she ran away. However the band themselves said it was about the spring rain is Eau Claire that "wash" away the snow.
Wash. by Bon Iver
Climb
is all we know
when thaw
is not below us
no, can’t grow up
in that iron ground
Claire, all too sore for sound
bet
is hardly shown
scraped
across the foam
like they stole it
and oh, how they hold it
Claire, we nearly forfeit
I… I’m growing like the quickening hues
I… I’m telling darkness from lines on you
over havens fora full and swollen morass, young habitat!
all been living alone, where the ice snap and the hold clast are known
home
we’re savage high
come
we finally cry
oh and we don it
because it’s right
Claire, I was too sore for sight
is all we know
when thaw
is not below us
no, can’t grow up
in that iron ground
Claire, all too sore for sound
bet
is hardly shown
scraped
across the foam
like they stole it
and oh, how they hold it
Claire, we nearly forfeit
I… I’m growing like the quickening hues
I… I’m telling darkness from lines on you
over havens fora full and swollen morass, young habitat!
all been living alone, where the ice snap and the hold clast are known
home
we’re savage high
come
we finally cry
oh and we don it
because it’s right
Claire, I was too sore for sight
