Hello my love, it's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone, I'm so sad on my own
The truth is we were much too young
Now I'm looking for you or anyone like you.
We said goodbye with the smile on our faces
Now you're alone, you're so sad on your own
The truth is we run out of the time
Now you're looking for me or anyone like me.
Na na na na?
Hello my love, it's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone, I'm so sad on my own

| kdarwish (Turku, Finland) | Posted: May 04, 2013 - 09:07 Some quality of the singer's voice and song's lyrics seems to raise heart rate and inspire sympathy. :) Also vaguely reminds of Nina Simone, sans piano. Very fine, thank you Radio Paradise. |

| thalula | Posted: Mar 06, 2013 - 03:48 I really like it!  |

Or how about the latte's at Janine's in the village at Montecido? Good memories. Janines is still wonderful. Good Karma is now at Natural Cafe, I think. Come back and visit! |

Definitely NOT the images I had conjured in my mind listening to it. I still like this song. It holds a sweet spot for me as one of the songs I first associated hearing on RP (hadn't heard elsewhere) when I first tuned in about 6 years ago. And I've continued to enjoy it on repeated listens. |
| docuplate | Posted: Nov 28, 2012 - 17:39 Seagulls at the start... trombone and clarinet... and whatever you call that brushy percussion thing... not to mention the smoldering vocal... this song is growing and growing on me. |
| pbjstudios (Addison, IL) | Posted: Nov 14, 2012 - 14:18 loved this tune. |
| kojiroh (Istanbul, Turkey) | Posted: Nov 09, 2012 - 10:49 I didn't really pay much attention to this, but it's been growing on me for a while. RP has already helped me meet Bonomo, God Is An Astronaut and Arcade Fire, and I guess it's time for Koop. |
| Caulfield | Posted: Aug 21, 2012 - 07:45 This masterpiece has a sad sad video :( |

| TerryS (Another SW) | Posted: Mar 10, 2012 - 20:52 First time I ever heard this was when watching 90210 with my daughter and she liked it. Ahhh, the power of bonding. |
| ejsamuel (great white north) | Posted: Feb 22, 2012 - 07:10 Bought the album based on this track. Fantastic track (for me a 10) - album less so but still good overall. |
| BikeCoachDave (Columbia, Ky.) | Posted: Feb 22, 2012 - 07:10 3>2 this morning as I cannot believe how often this song is played on RP. ugh. |

| ThePoose | Posted: Nov 15, 2011 - 09:17 A sweetish Swede, I imagine. But remember that Ane is Norwegian; she just lives in Stockholm. iam_overlord wrote: Funny, this song always makes me think of a Swede I once knew. Sigh. |

| run4more (The cave) | Posted: Jul 29, 2011 - 12:19 Whenever I hear this I think of the "Everyone Loves Raymond" episodes that were filmed in Italy. I have no idea why—probably bears no resemblance to the music used (which I did look up but don't remember anyway). But I somehow juxtapose this music with some of the great scenery they shot while filming. |
| cenesizo (Montreal) | Posted: Jul 29, 2011 - 12:14 I first listened to this song on RP and been in love with it since then. They have several other cool songs. |

| andrewmi (capitoltown) | Posted: May 27, 2011 - 11:01 Cool! There was a song not an hour ago by Bloomfield, Kooper, Stills and "Kooper" had me thinking of this song. I'm a fan. |
