After Glow


Well, I was planning to start this blog since long and what better song to start with, than Afterglow


Song: After Glow
Year:1996
Album: Switch
Band: INXS
Lyrics: Afterglow

Summary:
Its a beautiful breakup song by a rather unknown australian band INXS, sung from the perspective of a lover who wants to stay in the past, who wants to sacrifice and wants to live in her afterglow.

My take: The song starts with guitar notes and indian traditional beats and slowly grows into a surreal experience which made me believe in the singer. The song is definitely an experience, a dream wave which threw me in a different world, a world which is moving slowly in the negative time frame. I can see scenes of my past happening in the reverse order.

The delicate guitar riffs and the indian harmony thrown in the end along with the lyrical imagery makes this song a must for everyone.

Recommendation: Must listen for all and specifically for those suffering from a break up :)
