Son Lux ⁠— 'All Directions' (Official Audio)

From Son Lux's album Brighter Wounds

[usama]

The melancholia and sense of hopelessness yet a touch of hope this song brings is beautiful beyond what words can describe. I feel extremely lucky to have found this music. Son lux has to be without a doubt one of the most unique musical group currently present in the industry.

[brennashae]

This is hands down the most beautiful song I've ever listened to.

LYRICS:

This heart is for the wrecking
But leave it up to me
This heart is for the wrecking
But leave it up to me, leave it up to me

These arms won't last forever
So, I can't promise you we will, can't promise you we will
These arms won't last forever
So, I can't promise you we will, I can't promise you

Weren't we beautiful once?
Weren't we beautiful once?
Weren't we beautiful once?
Weren't we beautiful once?
And weren't we the beautiful ones?
I promise we were, I promise we were

Weren't we beautiful once?
Weren't we beautiful once?
Weren't we beautiful once?
Weren't we beautiful once?
For all we see in all directions
For all we see in all directions
For all we see in all directions
Weren't we beautiful once?
For all we see in all directions
Weren't we beautiful once?

"weren't we beautiful once" this line means everything

I know the world won't be as beautiful as I dream, but maybe some day people will learn to beautiful

Of this song, of course I love the percussions, as every Son Lux's song. Same for the vocals.
But that strings melody, that appears just three times in the entire song and than explodes differently at the end.
It's like a sonic representation of a mythological creature that appears just in rare moments. The absence of this melody during the rest of the song makes you dream of it, makes you wish for it. Like, "Where are you beautiful sound, where did you go?" and then it suddenly arrives in a moment where you don't expect it and you remain shocked by its beauty and how it touched you.

That Feeling In Your Heart When You Hear Something Absolutely Beautiful For The First Time. Nothing Tops It. Thank You

[sorryitsmoops]

I'm going to see them in 3 weeks and probably cry the entire show :')

[weirdowsos]

Once you realize taht everyone dies and everything decays you can't just live because you know that all your friends, parents, pets will die and all the items you hold dear will turn into dust and time just passes on...we can't escape the cycle and time just marches on and crushes our dreams and memorys and destroys our lives...

[kceateva]

One of the best songs off of this album

[FaRoss]

I highly appreciate the percussionist's versatility and courage. lol

[lorenzogubinelli]

di rado si incontrano artisti di tale sensibilità! non ho aggettivi per descrivere il movimento dell'anima che provo, consiglio di chiudere gli occhi e prendere i bassi più profondi che trovate o le cuffie più avvolgenti che ci sono e sentire il cd!

[mahtim]

With every new album, Son Lux manages to reach higher levels of such beauty!

[Pvlina]

it contains sounds i have never ever heard in my life, that's why it's so powerful, we dont know what it is but we continue to listen to it because we assume there is beaty in the unexpected, then it turns out it really is

[samizole]

i stumbled upon this and i'm... i don't even have words it's... so powerful

[louadafdouf]

Is it just me or this song is so addictif and also touch the deepest fear of your soul !! I can't stop listenning to it 👻...

[angeltorres]

[PalinaZ]

[TrueNargin]

Son Lux, you weren't "beautiful once". You are beautiful now.

Congratulations guys... The level of complexity and powerfulness of this album takes me back to some of the finest and deepest conceptual albums from the prog rock era. Shame the general conception of what enjoying music is has changed as it has since then, aswell as its virtue of emotional powerfulness and reinvention. Really excited about the evolution of your work. Thank you!
