I almost didn't post this because the video is sort of low quality, but I liked it too much not to share it. My favorite M83 song has long been "Lower Your Eyelids To Die With The Sun", but "Safe" just might be my new favorite. The video above was made by a fan who compiled clips from various history programs about the bombing of Hiroshima. When I first saw it I thought it was the official video from M83, but no, it was simply made by fan, which probably explains the low quality. But I think the video is deeply moving when combined with this song, which is about an atomic explosion. Here are the lyrics:
Atomic roads, nuclear sunrise
They left me all alone
Falling stars exploding on the sea
God, it's beautiful
The land and the roses slowly disappeared
Why I'm so alone?
A wounded angel is smiling to me
God, it's so beautiful
They left me all alone
Falling stars exploding on the sea
God, it's beautiful
The land and the roses slowly disappeared
Why I'm so alone?
A wounded angel is smiling to me
God, it's so beautiful
