Mogwai - Cody Lyrics

They must like Final Fight.

i think this is the first mogwai song that i thought was sad, but didn't make me cry when i listened to it for the first time. maybe it's because i was drawing that time

this brings back some painful memories

I toured Scotland recently, driving through the country sides with Mogwai playing, it was surreal, soothing. Just getting lost within the melodies and the scenery, it just fit, amazing band.

“Die Young but Live FOREVER” - Andrew Lopez

Wie wunderschön berührend in der Seele....

i love this song mogwai you are a great insiration to me i have listen to you when you first came out i have bought all youre cds this song is my faviourte it sometimes makes me cry in a good way

"Sad songs remind me of friends." I miss my friends. From high school. From college. From grad school. From various jobs. I hate how life slowly carries you away from the people you want to be with. :(

thanks Mogwai!

2:19 ... i felt that...

yo me la toco mejor

una miereda!!!

ALGUIEN ACÁ QUIERE SER SU PROPIO JEFE?

What is up with the recurring Donnie Darko theme in this video? I don't remember it being in the soundtrack. Cool montage, tho.

My right ear is enjoying this...

I really like this music.It is tender also remind me something with once love.

Its 4 am, 30th december and i am listening to this song and i am full of sadness, thinking about mistakes that i have done.

Of all I knew, I held too few
And would you stop me, if I tried to stop you?

[Chorus]
Old songs stay till the end
Sad songs remind me of friends
And the way it is, I could leave it all
And I ask myself, would you care at all?

[Bridge]
When I drive alone at nights, I see the streetlights as fairgrounds
And I tried a hundred times to see the road signs as Day-Glo

[Chorus]
Old songs stay till the end
Sad songs remind me of friends
And the way it is, I could leave it all
And I ask myself, would you care at all?

Old songs stay till the end
Sad songs remind me of friends
And the way it is, I could leave it all
And I ask myself, would you care at all?

This song makes me feel like a crystal glass falling, in a thousand pieces. Listening for more than ten years, this huge emptiness that I have inside increases, this melancholy that make the present absent. I would like to fall asleep with this song in the background and do not wake up anymore

Here because of Rebus...

Damn this and my joint cured this night for me..

Me parece que esta canción es una de las mas logradas de esta superbanda. Esta canción nos deja a todos los que amamos esta musica muy satisfechos. Para mi es uno de sus mejores temas.

Fourth!

My best friend in the world died last week, his name was Cody.
Our favorite song we used to listen to late at night before bed time was Close Encounters by Mogwai, while reminiscing of old time i started researching the band.
They have an album called Come On Die Young, released the day before my friends birthday :(
And the lyrics are way too fucking real.

Ben Jammin Kraft and Cody is a track from Come on die young...

Thats what i said

I've lost a fair few friends over the years and for various reasons this song makes me think of them too. Some wounds never truly heal.

just beautone
iful as many of there song are Scottish tartan proud and talented

Saw this live a few months ago... such a beautiful moment in between all the heavy and loud songs.

this is why we are born - to absorb this sound into our blood

lovely ! and hopefull in it s way. thanks mogwai and guy/girl that made the videoo.

Miss people listen to this miss them even more but the song is outstanding

Tears of fathers

aman be

I am not at peace with you leaving. I am unsettled

Depressing as fuck... I love it.

College 2002. My soul weeps only to remember but I made you believe live through it all

"Young Team" and "Come OnDie Young" are Glasgow gang references

Feel On Die Young

tristeza

what a good song to hate myself to

instrumentals sound like a slowed down version of 'I See A World' by Theaudience

Oh wow, this song is really lovely.

Cassie Ainsworth

I love you

Thanks Mohsen. F, your and idiot, this is not an instrumental. Moron!

I've never seen "Skins", and I don't ever know what it is. But I know that you like Interpol too. Hi fron Italia.

Skins. <3

fcking cassie ♥

Anyone else here from skins season 1 episode 2? That house looked pretty messy after that fight :')

This band started a never ending adventure. This style of music made me branch off and discover many artists and their songs that I may have never been aware of. I've traveled many miles and visited many places listening to my playlist. Mogwai may not be the main bad I listen to, but they started a movement within myself.. and for that I thank them.

Shōnen Pepe check out her name is calla

Listening to the song Condor and River atm and it sounds nice.
Meanwhile another band that blew my mind is Because of Ghosts. Also Yndi Halda and Do Make Say Think both had excellent releases recently.

Angelo Spaccarotella if the stars had a sound. It would sound like this.

Listen to the stoop and Cotton wood firing squad. Similar experience with them x

@Earf all the new (good) ones are on bandcamp with up to 5 listeners

This song hits me way way way too deep, man. The feels

Bleak beautiful but chilled!

Skins :)

My feelings.

das ist die bewegendste musik welche ich jemals habe gehört. wunderschön. geht sehr tief...

make love to strangers and die yung

cry cry cry.

+Isabella Melo soak the tears and smile at the pain and learn from it :D

BRASIL PORRA

Eitá porra só os hue

"Old songs, stay till the end.
Sad songs, remind me of friends.
And the way it is, I could leave it all.
And I ask myself, would you care at all."

This song and album reminds of driving around the nicer parts of Mallorca at night.

Steven Davies greetings from a Spaniard :)

Of All I Knew, I shed a man tear to a great father I lost.
Mogwai is the most humble, poetic and deep band I ever listened to.

Amazing

Reminds me of the summer of 1999 before uni when I was 19! Thank you Mary Ann Hobbs for the introduction x

que seria de mi sin esta rola

It went from my everything to their nothing much, to still my everything.

Beautiful

Come on die young.

hell yeah dude

when I listen to this song of me inner peace

+Marcos Gustavo This was on a Skins episode? I didn't even notice and, Skins is one of my favorite shows :)

+Rebecca Alceus Season 1 beginning of episode 2 "Cassie" :)

@Jayna88 aww you made the effort to find it?
Thank you! :)

@Rebecca Alceus No problem :)

Skins season 1 episode 2: Cassie. So nostalgic ;n;

Wish it was 2007 again :(

This song always reminds of Cassie and Sid. Especially the "Would you stop me if I tried to stop you?" line.

Donnie Darko :oo

Hey, now. 
Donnie Darko. 
Nice. 

I like the Galaxie 500 feel to the vocals on this one

When I listen to "Come On Die Young", I think of melancholy during the Winter time. It feels like Mogwai is putting us in the head of a man. This is most prominent in "Helps Both Ways" with the broadcaster from the TV fading in and out throughout the song. Someone is deep in thought and breaks concentration to pay attention to the TV once again. 

The best experience I've ever had listening to "Come On Die Young" was one night I watched snow fall through an outside street lights glow. It fits perfectly for Mogwai's forgotten album.

my favorite song from mogwai

I Mogwai  sono tra qui gruppi che cominci ad apprezzare piano piano,il loro primo album che acquistai lo feci a scatola chiusa ogni tanto mi piace farmi delle sorprese,ed era "Happy Music for Happy People"e sinceramente quando lo ascoltai non mi entusiasmò più di tanto, poi ascolto dopo ascolto cominciai ad apprezzarli sempre più.

Words cannot express the raw human energy this makes me create. It makes me want to do this human existence over again. So much I could have made right to make this life better, I could have turned this planet of souls into a better place for them to exist until they move on.
I hardly know what I'm saying, but it's what came out.

couldn't have said it better

This melody makes me stop what I'm doing and just tune out the rest of the world.

Amazing. Mogwai can help you in any stage of your life

sounds like a pack of tards to me

wore you out. I win. Victory!

awesome bruh, put it on your resumé

you lied

cool (y)

I lost my mother almost five years ago, for a breast cancer. This song makes me think of her, but in a comfortable way, I am not sad. Thanks Mogwai

Marco Martini indeed, my friend

I hope you're ok,bud. You and the rest of your family.........

i lost my mind 5 hours ago

I know this is 5 years old but sending you good vibes and lots of love, friend <3

It’s okay to be sad. Sometimes I wish I could be sad, and if makes me... well, sad isn’t the word. Empty? Discontent? Longing? Nostalgic? If you can feel sad, it means you loved something, it means you can still care. That’s a wonderful thing through the pain...

De lo que me estaba perdiendo, ¡de muy buena música!

donnie darko pics :O

Shut up everyone and enjoy....

I don't know you but I am sorry for your loss.

through* u forgot a R

My brother died at a young age and this song helped me though it.
