Still falling
Breathless and on again
Inside today
Beside me today
Around, broken in two
Till your eyes shed
Into dust
Like two strangers
Turning into dust
Till my hand shook
With the way I fear

I could possibly be fading
Or have something more to gain
I could feel myself growing colder
I could feel myself under your fate
Under your fate

It was you
Breathless and tall
I could feel my eyes turning into dust
And two strangers
Turning into dust
Turning into dust

Mazzy Star is the reason I started playing Guitar back in the 90s. One night I saw an acoustic performance on MTV and was simply stunned by the sound. I bought a guitar and watched the VHS Tape over and over again to figure out the Chords. A huge part of my personal music history. Greetings from Darmstadt in Germany!

Grüße aus Nordamerika!  This is the power of transcendent music - bridging the planet, linking kindred spirits.  This is among my top favorites, garnered a "9" from me. I never tire of hearing it. Seien Sie glücklich und gesund!  Wees gelukkig en gezond!

I listened to their albums again after David Roback died. In the early days I was fixated on Hope Sandoval and didn't appreciate what an incredible talent he was.

This would have been recorded around spring or summer 1993.  I've been noticing there was a lot of sad music that came out that year.  I blame REM and some of those dark tracks from Automatic For The People... it seemed to have started with them.

I was a young teenager when this came out.  Back then this music seemed terribly important for some reason.  Now, when I hear this song I feel nostalgic for the time when music like this was terribly important.  Perhaps, in the end it actually is (terribly important that is) and I have just lost track of something along the way.



I wonder the same. For me the music only gets as important as it used to be when it reminds me of a personal experience or I can strongly relate to it in some way. In those times I connect with the music even more than I did when I was young. Occurrences of this are relatively rare though, but seem to happen more than I care to admit due to the high volume of RP that I listen to! I'm not sure if this is related, but recent research has shown that the teenage brain has somewhere about 10 times (1000 percent) of the hormones of a full adult. All those hormones sloshing around may have messed a bit with our perceptions at the time. Or perhaps it was something else messing with my perceptions at the time too, lol!

like this album alot. (yes, a lame comment but there you are!)
updating: just read the comment about sad music and am perplexed. can we help where music takes us, and perhaps where we need to be taken? why do  we have to try to analyze every lyric or even where the feel of the piece takes us? can we not simply let ourselves be moved by either what where we are taken or when a lyric just seems devastating or very emotive of something we feel or think we understand at hearing it?

Simplicity is actually not simple to accomplish. Mazzy star was without a doubt one of the examples of simple yet complex and beautiful music.

Favorite song of a good friend of mine who passed away many years ago. Hearing this song always brings me back to Williamsburg Brooklyn in 1996, when I lived this song, played it over and over again in an attempt to grab a wisp of smoke, and have never been the same since.

This song is pure musical perfection for me. An amazing work!

I would swear I hear a cello expressing deep bass notes and resonant emotion underneath the sweet guitar and Hope Sandoval's marvelous voice; but Wiki says it's a violin.

Can someone more musically experienced than I am tell me which is true?

"Dust to Dust" pays tribute to the heroes of one of gaming's most epic sagas.

In April 2010, "Ashes to Ashes" set a grim stage fraught with desperation, but a glimmer of hope remained as Delta clung to the ideal of brotherhood. Months later came the E3 2011 trailer featuring "War Pigs," and new images of resilience as Sera's last remaining human forces rallied in an explosive fight for survival. Now, set to the song "Into Dust" by Mazzy Star, the stirring new broadcast trailer follows the full saga of Marcus and Delta's journey across all three "Gears of War" games as they charge head-on into the end.
