Beirut - Gallipoli Lyrics






We tell tales to belong
Or be spared the sorrow

You're so fair to be behold
What will be left when you're gone?

And it changed everything you know
How we were when the wonders who love
Southern land, scattered clouds from the cold
And, oh, oh, oh, spare me the glow

    Thank you, Zach.
    I was mad and later I was sad.
    Your music makes me happy without sending sadness away, and it feels beautiful.

  11. G.... H....

    Cara, que sonzeira.
    Essa música passa aquele feeling de estar em uma outra dimensão.

  12. s.... ....

    Raisa Bruner says: " Beirut is an indie rock group known for experimental instrument use and a retro sound. The bulk of the four minute "Gallipoli" is made up of vocal-free instrumentation, blaring brass and bouncing drums that sound just a bit fuzzy and distorted, like the tune is coming through an old radio, before opening up into a sunny march. That texture -- of warmth and history -- echoes throughout Zach Condon's lyrics, too. "

  13. A.... S....

    This is truly excellent.

  54. c.... p....

    Pupille dilatées, oreilles fragiles au diapason. En délicatesse, d’harmonies cuivrées, une dentelle musicale et quelques ponctuations d'accompagnements. Sensualité chaloupée, ciselée, une belle orchestration que le, les cors, corps rendent une puissance subtile. Quand le bonheur est si léger.

  55. o.... ....

    Gelibolu 🤔🙂

  56. V.... C....

    this honestly breaks my heart, it sounds like a watered down version of how beirut used to be, i respect the fact that each band has to change and evolve in their own way, but i really wanted to love this and i don't

  57. f.... 6....

    I had my dream came true, could see you in Montreal this month!!! It was amazing to hear your voice, amazing....!!! Love you! You are part of my life!

  94. B.... C....

    I’m having a long distance relationship from Melbourne to New Orleans and I just got to visit my girlfriend in New Orleans after 7 months. She is the person I called “the one” and we are trying to make this relationship work out despite 17 hours distance , a very short period of time of knowing each other while she was here in Melbourne so it’s been the toughest challenge of both of our lives. I finally got to see her for a blessing 3 weeks and ever single day I fall in love to her again , every single day we got to know each other more and I’ve been so thankful to God for gifting this beautiful woman to me. I enjoyed every second of our times together and I just left her 3 days ago. I’ve been listening this song since I got on to first plane and I’ve been crying since the last moment I saw her. Every time I hear this song , tears coming down from my eyes and i can’t stop crying. I just want to say this song will always be the most meaningful song for me. It’s the song plays in my mind while I dream my beautiful memories with my princess.
    Shout out to Beirut for making a such an amazing song , you guys will always be remembered 🙏🙏

    B.... C....

    I hope things work out for you guys. If there is a possibility of eventually settling together in either country, it is a situation of temporary pain vs eternal love afterwards.

  95. M.... S....

    i was born and actually living in Gallipoli - Beirut made a beautiful portrait of my town poetic sadness.

  96. I.... S....

    Talvez a mais doce das melodias de Beirut.. Nos transporta para outra atmosfera.

  97. J.... S....

    I first thought this was some forgotten masterpiece of Morricone...Ennio Morricone, yes. But it's fuckin Beirut, ooh yea!!
