(Leonardo Chiulli Guida Vilhena)
São 7:30, você acorda.
Alguém bate na porta e te prende a atenção:
Olha a sua vida! Você concorda?
Olhe a sua volta! Será que era pra ser assim?
Enquanto outras pessoas tem muito e jogam fora.
E há tantos outros de sangue frio
Guerra fria e crianças no meio da confusão.
Sem fazer alarde, cedo fica tarde
A vida segue o rumo e se perde a noção
Sem face nem coração, o medo vira condição
Há sempre um absurdo na capa do jornal!
É só disfarce, não tem medida
As vezes a saída pode não ser a solução]
Preparem as armas, ajustem as miras não é com a sua família e pra você então, tanto faz...
The song Seven by Fever Ray is a reflection on the importance of close friendships and the power of simple exchanges with people we've known for a long time. The first verse establishes a connection shared between the singer and a childhood friend, someone who they've known since they were seven years old. The two used to talk on the phone but now only have time for each other if it's the right moment. The chorus is a request for the friend to accompany the singer in their daily routine by the kitchen sink. They talk about love and dishwater tablets, and dream about heaven.
The second verse describes the singer leaving home early in the morning, under a heavy sky. They ride their bike up and down until they see the November smoke and feel the coldness in their toes. There's a transition in the line "it goes from white to red" indicating a change in state, either of the sky or within the singer. A little voice in their head whispers something, which is likely their intuition or inner truth. The repetition of "I know it" in the chorus emphasizes this sense of certainty and trust in their perception of the world. The idea of not needing an explanation, only validation from another space (heaven), further emphasizes the personal nature of their truth.

I've got a friend
I have a companion
Who I've known since I was seven
I have known this person since I was seven years old
We used to talk on that phone
We used to communicate over the telephone
If we have time, if it's the right time
If we both have a moment free and it is appropriate
Accompany me
Join me
By the kitchen sink
Next to the sink in the kitchen
We talk about love
We discuss affection
We talk about dishwater tablets
We converse about detergent for washing dishes
And we dream about heaven
And we imagine paradise
I know it
I am aware
I think I know it from a heaven
I believe I understand it from a divine source
They said so it doesn't need no explanation
An external source said it, therefore it does not require any clarification
Or a box to open up with light and sound
It does not require any kind of box to clarify it, with or without lights and sounds
Making you cold, very cold
If you were to try to clarify it in that way, you would feel cold
I leave home at seven
I depart my house at seven o'clock
Under a heavy sky
With an overcast sky overhead
I ride my bike up
I pedal upwards on my bicycle
I ride my bike down
I coast downwards on my bicycle
November smoke
Smoke in the air that signals November
And your toes cold now
And your toes are now chilled
It goes from white to red
It changes color from white to red
A little voice in my head said so
My inner voice spoke that it would happen
I know it
I am aware
I think I know it from a heaven
I believe I understand it from a divine source
They said so
An external source said it
It doesn't need no explanation
It does not require any clarification
Or a box to open up with light and sound
It does not require any kind of box to clarify it, with or without lights and sounds
And if you don't you'll run your own
And if you do not understand it, you will need to deal with the consequences yourself

I've got a friend
Who I've known since I was seven
We used to talk on that phone
If we have time, if it's the right time
Accompany me
By the kitchen sink
We talk about love
We talk about dishwater tablets, illness
And we dream about heaven
I know it
I think I know it from a hymn, ah
They said so
It doesn't need no explanation, oh
Or a box to open up with light and sound
Making you cold, very cold
I leave home at seven
Under a heavy sky
I ride my bike up
I ride my bike down
November smoke
And your toes cold now
A new color on the globe
It goes from white to red
A little voice in my head said so
I know it
I think I know it from a hymn, ah
They said so
It doesn't need no explanation, oh
Or a box to open up with light and sound
And if you don't, you're on your own
I know it
I think I know it from a hymn, ah
They said so
It doesn't need no explanation, oh
Or a box to open up with light and sound
Making you cold, very cold

They're one of the best sounds of last years. Pure genius, inspiring and...that's it, it's just art.

By today, so many more should have heard. Blast from the past commercial, but had to say it. Where is she now...

This is one of my favorite songs from Fever. This song is just so chill and fluid with a cool sound. I love the video! Oh , and if anyone is curious; the lady portrayed in the video, adorned in the beautiful Silver gown is Kari Sylwan. Who is a Swedish actress, dancer, ballet teacher, and choreographer. She was also featured in "The Knife's "full of fire" video.
