"The hopes and the dreams don't give credit to the real things." - one of the best song lyrics ever

[allysonpains]

This isn't a song, it is an experience!

[enzomatheusrocha]

this song is like you're having a breakdown and going to space totally in particles

[soy_osba]

omg, this woman sound equal in the studio version. JESUS!

[ronnygranados]

fuck the grammys, this album is one of the bests ever released, i love it

[yokerlingrodriguez]

Why this girl doesn’t have a Grammy already for this masterpiece ?

[laug]

This song is an incredible masterpiece, if you don’t relate to her it may be harder to understand, but it’s a song that comes from utter dispair and passion for music. And feeling incredibly misunderstood and like you’ve lost an important part of your life growing up and losing your child self . You become another one of the crowd and you realize your dreams aren’t even all that important. You start to lose passion and become a sheep of society who doesn’t even know what they’re doing here. She’s an incredibly intellectual person.

[DethronerX]

After Enya, Lou Reed, Cocteau Twins, this is what I love, for that kind of a feeling

[fiercetilapia]

discovering andromeda was so life changing then feeling further and finding this song… and now her singing live and flawlessly??? just an out of body experience this performance gives

[kameraddima]

This is how it feels to be in love
This is life from above
There's no books anymore
I'm bound to that summer
Big box office hit
Making love to a counterfeit

Why did so many
Get a rise out of me?
I love the movies

Some people feel what some people don't
Some people watch until they explode
The meaning of life doesn't seem to shine like that screen

Put me in a movie and everyone will know me
You'll be the star you know you are
The movies I watched when I was a kid
The hopes and the dreams
Don't give credit to the real things
I love the movies

I know the meaning
I know the story
I know the glory
I love movies

I wanna be in my own movie
I wanna be
I wanna be the star of mine
Of my own, my own
My own
I wanna be the star
I wanna be
I wanna be the star of mine
Of my own, my own
My own
I wanna be
My, my own movie

[unaeki]

The amount of vocal control and brevity she has is truly astounding

[terrestrialcelestial]

I cannot hear this song without crying. It is pure magic.

[RichardCharter]

Best album of the year. Thanks Natalie and band, and KEXP

[JuanGomez-sbrw]

Definitivamente Titanic Rising es el álbum del año, merece más reconocimiento

[kallvt]

I've only recently been really listening and paying attention to her music and decided to check what it sounds like when live. HOLY FUCKING SHIT HOW IS THIS WOMAN REAL? WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT VOICE AND THAT WHOLE PERFORMANCE?

[alejandrolopezgomez]

I'd love to see her performing this song in Oscar's with a background video about how movies have evolved

[saulcampos]

All this album is an experience. starting with A lot's gonna change, it actually feels like an old feeling, like something you're not anymore, like you're starting over. I've been passing through a weird time, I don't really know who I am anymore, and this album is exactly how I'm feeling. I just love this masterpiece

[efthymism.]

I wanna see her live sooo freaking much

[josephzuniga]

Our lives are literally just movies that END. Everything is just drama playing right in front of us. We must enjoy it as difficult as it is because in the end, we're oh so lucky to be an audience to the spectacle of all this.

[raoulspov]

Damn. She’s incredible.

This song is my favorite off the new album. So glad she performed it :)
