"New Jade" by Caribou

I love the music of Caribou (the nom de musique of musician and singer-songwriter--and Doctor of Mathematics!--Dan Snaith), previously here. And this song features a compelling sample (something Snaith is known for in his music) with a gripping melody and some very touching lyrics.


Now you’re gone for good,
Been through more than anyone should,
And in time you’ll see,
How much better off you will be,
And don’t you believe what he said,
Locked up inside of his head,
You’ve got your children with you,
To give you the strength to get through.

It’s like a new first kiss,
Yeah you can start feeling glad,
‘Cause you’re not going to miss,
Something that you’ve never had,
Don’t you believe what he says,
It’s always lies anyways,
You’ve been waiting for so long,
And now he’s finally gone.
