(1) A 1970s progressive rock band
(2) A Welsh Club production duo signed to Crazylegs.
(3) The group which represented Cyprus at 1981 Eurovision
(4) A German band
(5) A Flemish supergroup
(6) A UK blues rock band
(7) A Polish doom metal band

(1) A progressive rock band from the 1970s which sounded pretty much like Canterbury. The band format included keys, sax, drums and vocals. The biggest influence for ISLAND definitely seems to be Van Der Graaf Generator, and the band certainly approaches high quality progressive rock from the darker end of the spectrum. Sometimes the influence of Gentle Giant gets very clear in their music.

(2) Group consisting of Alexia Bassiliou, Areti Kassapi Haralbidou, Aristos Moskovakis, Roger Lee and Doros Georgiadis. Only recorded their Eurovision entry as this collective

(3) A Bonn, Germany, band formed in autumn 2003 by Christian Kolf, Florian Toyka and Patrick Schroeder. In winter 2003/2004 we recorded the first album "Orakel" with Tim Steffens of Klabautamann at Flammenmeer Studios. Six months later the "Island EP" was recorded at the mysterious Studio 308 by ourselves, and mixed by Armin Rave at Sound-Sight Studios. After this recording Patrick Schroeder left the band to focus more on Centaurus-A. They are currently signed on Vendlus Records.

(4) A Flemish supergroup with the late folk alumni Wannes Van Der Velde en Dirk Van Esbroeck (Rum) who released a cd around the theme of Iceland.

(5) A UK blues rock band with members Rollo Doherty, Jack Raeder, James Wolfe and Toby Richards. Their tracks include "Lucid Heart" and "Lyra".

(7) A Polish atmospheric doom metal band founded in 1995. They have released two demos titled "My Kingdom" and "Mirror" in 1996 and 1997 before splitting up.

Come With Me
Island Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lost in time
If you're looking for me
I'll be fine
Where I'm going
Where I am
It's an endless voyage
In your mind

Can't you see I'm falling
Can't you see I'm down
Can't you tell me gently
Oh what's it gonna be like

Lost and found
When no one's waiting
For a sign
So come and get me
I'm alright
It's a fearless moment
In my life

Can't you see I'm growing
Can't you see I'm high
Can't you tell me sweetly
Oh what's it gonna be like

Oh what's it gonna be like
Tell me what's it gonna be like

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Island's song "Come with Me" describe a situation where someone is in great danger and may be on the brink of dying. The opening line, "Blackness" sets a dark tone for the song, implying that the situation is serious and possibly fatal. The next line, "Don't go towards the light if you see it" suggests that the light that appears at the end of a tunnel in near-death experiences should not be approached by the person. The singer urges the person to fight for their life and try to open their eyes.

The repeated pleas to "Stay with me" imply that the singer cares about the person and wants them to survive. The lines "Reach, try to speak, please try" could be interpreted as the singer encouraging the person to communicate with them or with any other medical personnel who may be present. The lyrics end on a hopeful note, with the lines "You'll feel like you've been born again...You feel like something had to end", hinting that the person may survive and experience a new perspective on their life.

LYRICS:
The arguments are almost over
They'll tell you it'll be alright
You know i've got to move you closer
I've waited in the sea to die
Come with me
Come with me, oh
Come with me
Come with me, oh
And before I cut your eyes, you were shakin' in the moonlights
Thought i'd pay for all my crimes
Now im waistin' words and rhymes
Callin'
Come with me
Come with me, oh
Come with me
Come with me, oh
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me
Come with -- me
Come with me
Come with me, oh
Come with me
Come with me

Before I caught your eyes
You were shakin' in the moonlight
I thought I paid for all my crimes
Now I'm wasting words in rhyme calling

Come with me, oh

Eu nem sei como nomear o toque que vez ou outra a gente sente na alma, um toque que involuntariamente me faz se emocionar. Onde por um momento, o momento abraça meu passado e futuro e me abestalho apenas deslumbrada com a existência, com a minha presença e a de pessoas que já tive o prazer de conhecer. É uma sensação estranhamente incrível por que por uma fração de segundos vecê sente que tudo faz sentido, que a vida é uma bagunça perfeitamente alinhada, euforia e paz viram um só ao ponto de não conter isso internamente pois você chora, ou escreve, ou grita, ou todos junto. Você é encontrado e encontra o tudo.
