Editors' Two New Hit Singles and Videos from An End Has a Start Release
With the release of their sophomore CD An End Has A Start this summer, containing popular songs like "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors", band members of Editors having been touring relentlessly as their popularity grows with the release of each new single.
The latest release from the band that is getting good play on the web is the music video to the title track of An End Has A Start.
Here's the band's most recent music video release, "Racing With Rats" - direct from the band's own YouTube page:
During the summer the music video to "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors" has been viewed nearly a half million times just on the band's YouTube page itself.
As sadly ironic as the title is, the song has an element of longing to it, not what you'd expect from a song with the precursor "the saddest thing I've ever seen." No disrespect Tom. It's a great song, but the lyrics are a bit lame. I can show you some things that are far, far sadder. But I get the irony, man.
Still, let's face it, Editors have a great, signature sound, but the lyrics lack the maturity and craftsmanship of many other, lesser known indie song writers. However, it is only fair to say that the lads are fairly new to the scene (circa 2004) and not known for their lyrics as much as they are for their captivating sound.
Nevertheless, the music video for "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors" is nothing special, but worth a watch for fans. Personally, I like the band's earlier videos, especially for "Munich" and "Bullets", two of the songs that really shot the band onto the more mainstream, if you will, indie rock scene.
Lyrics to Editors' "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors":
So your eyes can't see
Now run as fast as you can
Through this field of trees
Say goodbye to everyone
You have ever known
You are not gonna see them ever again
I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors
Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
How can we wear our smiles
With our mouths wide shut
Cause you stopped us from singing
I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors
Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
Now someone turn us around
Can we start this again?
We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Left smashed on the floor
I can't believe you
If I can't hear you
I can't believe you
If I can't hear you
We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed on the floor
We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed on the floor
Someone turn me around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can I start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed on the floor)
Now someone turn us around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can we start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed on the floor)
