Knesiat HaSechel-What are you dreaming about



This is the latest single by the well-known Israeli rock band Knesiat HaSechel (The Church of Reason). I think it takes a few listens to get used to it and to the singer's voice, but the effort pays off. I found myself floating in the waves of this song, especially towards the end. I don't really like it's video-It's a bit too trying to be dark and I'd prefer something with the sea, not a shower. It kind of reminds me of Aviv Geffen's depressing video's from the 90's and who wants to see something so heavy these days?

What are you dreaming about Michal
When the night is dark and wide
And the winds of the sea ruffle thoughts
And the sprays of the waves are bright dots

And there isn’t the guy that was and left
And you don’t have the parents who want you to be
And there are no more insignificant days
And you don’t have legs feet or a body

And the taste in your mouth changes from fear to salt
And the fish caress your body stroke by stroke
And the lights in the deep call for you
What are you dreaming about Michal?

And the taste in your mouth changes from fear to salt
The fish kiss your body kiss by kiss
The lights in the deep call for you
What are you dreaming about Michal
