1) South is a London-based trio of talented multi-instrumentalists that defy any one label. Rock, electric, acoustic, folk and orchestral only touch the surface of South's repertoire. Their first album, From Here on In, was released on Mo'Wax. Between this and the next album they supplied the score to Sexy Beast along with UNKLE. Their sophomore album, With the Tides, was released domestically in the United States on the Kinetic Record Label in 2003. The release of their third full length album; 'Adventures in the Underground Journey to the Stars' in 2006 has only expanded their sound while taking on new challenges by mixing and producing their own tunes in their very own studio.
2008 brings more changes to South with a move to Bluhammock Records. Scheduled to be released in April, "You Are Here" showcases some redone older tracks as well as breaking new ground.
Their track "Paint the Silence", from From Here On In, quickly became a hit after it was played in the ninth episode of The OC in Season 1. The episode was entitled "The Heights".

South Lyrics

It s simple I am rising
Crush down on the floor
The lyrics of South's song "Balloons" are rich in metaphors and symbolism that can be interpreted in different ways. The line "let go of the strings if you really want" could be seen as a call to let go of controlling tendencies and surrender to the flow of life. This is reinforced by the next line "it's simple I am rising." The singer seems to be embracing change and growth, as the rising balloon suggests.
The third line "crush down on the floor" could be seen as a reference to the resistance that often accompanies growth and change. The singer seems to be acknowledging the difficulties that come with letting go of old habits and patterns. However, the line could also be interpreted as a call to ground oneself and find stability amidst the turbulence of change.
Overall, the song "Balloons" invites listeners to reflect on their own relationship with change and growth. It encourages a sense of surrender to the natural rhythms of life, while acknowledging the challenges that come with letting go of the past. The metaphor of the rising balloon is used to convey a feeling of lightness and freedom, while the image of the crushed balloon suggests the weight of resistance and struggle.

Let go of the strings if you really want
If you truly desire to be free, release whatever holds you down or holds you back.
It's simple I am rising
I am ascending and growing without complication.
Crush down on the floor

as malaysian , see how US government and civilian respond on this incident.
i would say that’s funny , and not a smart way to handle this incident.
they have a lot military spy satellites flying in space,
they can quietly study your place from map,
why want to make this big obvious balloon to let you detect?
from my perspective, maybe china really did that just to see how US respond.
see whether US friendly to them, or already put them in enemy list?🤔
since US respond this way, china would list US as threat in South China Sea as well.
don’t blame them being threat (just balloon 🎈), cause you pose threat to them first(respond with missile).

@BB ZKA apparently spy balloon and weather balloon looks and "behaves" differently. I looked up a couple of articles and it says the same thing.
