After many years of knowing this song, I keep coming back to it from time to time. Each of its frames could make it to the best photo of the year. Happy to be alive in a time in which this song (and this video) exist.

In love with the indian music in this song❤️❤️

La photographie est mort...au contraire, mon frere

It's stories like these that make me want to believe in heaven

This will forever be the best song ever made for me. The beautiful lyrics and track combined with the beautiful memories and nostalgia I have for it. It shan’t be replaced. Thank you ALT-J, my artist of the decade.

esas miradas...

Gerda Taro was a war photojournalist in the 1930 – 40s. She died in her line of work when a tank collided into the side of a car she was riding on.

The subject of this song is Gerda’s romantic interest and colleague, Robert Capa. During the First Indochina War, Capa left the relative safety of his Jeep and advanced on foot in a hostile war zone to take pictures. Minutes later, he stepped on a landmine, which blew apart his left leg. He died minutes later with his camera in his hand.

In the memory of Robert Capa

"The song was written about the life and death of the two lovers – Robert Capa and Gerda Taro.


Taro was born in 1910 into a Jewish family in Germany. In 1933 she was arrested due to political activities against the Nazi regime. After Taro was released, she fled to Paris, where she met Robert Capa. Capa, Hungarian born Jew (who was born named Andrew Friedman), fled to Germany and then to Paris in 1933 as well, where he continued his career as a photographer of war. Over time, the young couple fell in love, and with this love, Taro Love has emerged to Capa’s profession of war photography. Within a few years she mastered the profession and became one of the first women in the field of war photography, and sadly at the age of 27 she was the first woman that was killed while fulfilling her job (in the Barnett 1937 as part of the Spanish Civil War).
Kappa paid this heavy psychological cost – not only lost the the love of his life, he also blamed himself for her death – since he was not there with her. Despite the loss and pain, Capa went on to document the Spanish Civil War till the end of the war.


Capa photographed many more wars, including World War II.
Capa was killed in the line of duty as a photographer War Indochina War in 1954, at age 40, when he ran over a mine.


Capa managed to stay true to his principals – in his eyes, it was crucial to document the war from the perspective of an average soldier and accordingly, he would say:
“If your photographs are not good enough, you’re not close enough”.


The band Alt-J decided to release a song dedicated to this couple who loved one another and was also devoted to their work, Ultimately they paid this remarkable devotion with their life."

Amazing song!

Tash Sultana sent me here

someone on omegle recommended this to me so yeahh

I study to be approved on medical school and every time I'm unmotivated I come here to watch this. While others motivated themselves thinking in money or prestige, I come here to listen the lyrics and cry, saying to myself: this is why you're here, because of people. It always was and always will be until you're get there.

I’ve been listening to this song 3 years ago before and after my final exams from chemistry and biology with hope to score enough to get into medical school. And i made it!
Keeping my fingers crossed for you - if you can dream it, you can do it :)

You must have a beautiful soul and mind

sameeeee....im literally sitted here with my pharma book open

I know that feel, been doing exactly the same dreaming about becoming a doctor without borders...Good luck;)

Isso ai mantenha o foco!! Muito bonito saber que ainda existem pessoas como você com um coração que tem esse lado tão bonito e raro de se ver nos dias de hoje.

Just Brilliant compilation of all...

I know the lyrics are about something awful but the video makes me feel what we are missing as a human family. Togetherness.

hey Taro....333 love legendary song and fantastic edit....

lyrics
Indochina, Capa jumps Jeep, two feet creep up the road
To photo, to record meat lumps and war,
They advance as does his chance -- very yellow white flash.
A violent wrench grips mass, rips light, tears limbs like rags,
Burst so high finally Capa lands,
Mine is a watery pit. Painless with immense distance
From medic from colleague, friend, enemy,
foe, him five yards from his leg, From you Taro.
Do not spray into eyes -- I have sprayed you into my eyes.
3:10 pm, Capa pends death, quivers, last rattles, last chokes
All colours and cares glaze to grey, shrivelled and stricken to dots,
Left hand grasps what the body grasps not -- le photographe est mort.
3.1415, alive no longer my amour, faded for home May of '54
Doors open like arms my love, Painless with a great closeness
To Capa, to Capa Capa dark after nothing,
re-united with his leg and with you, Taro.
Do not spray into eyes -- I have sprayed you into my eyes.
Hey Taro!
