I don’t know if the words creepy and lovely have ever been combined to describe anything, but it is eerily safe to say that Passenger’s Simple Song is creepily-lovely. I love Passenger to bits, but I wasn’t aware he had a new album out until I checked out his YouTube channel today. I have played simple song a couple of times already and I can tell you the song as actually simple, beautiful and awesome all at once. The video on the other hand is. . .

I am not too sure how to describe how I felt watching it at first, but let’s just say it wasn’t going down well with me at first. If I was eating while watching it, I might either have thrown up half way through seeing it or never finished it. (The food or/and the video.) Watching the child (stick) figure going up the mountain and getting the lady down and eventually both families going up the mountain together mad the stick-figures more human and humane than anything else could have.

Whose idea was it to make this video anyways? They deserve something extra special. This isn’t cartoon, as that will make them a little more “relatable” Neither are they anime or puppets. Yet at the end of it all, you can’t help loving them all.

Also, if you are seeing this for this first time like I was a couple of hours before writing this, don’t get turned off at what you see at the beginning. I can assure you, the end is going to be totally worth it.

For anyone who is a fan of simplicity, Simple Song is the song for you. And for those who have lost a loved one, please, stay strong.

Simple Song Lyrics:

Chorus:
Here’s a simple song
Won’t stop the rain from coming down
Or your heart from breaking
Here’s a simple song
It’s never gonna turn this day around
Stop the earth from shaking
It’s just a simple song
Nothing right or wrong
You can sing along if you want to

Verse 1:
Well, I know it’s not been easy
But easy ain’t worth singin’ about
Yeah, I know, I know
The time goes slow
But it always running out Chorus:
Here’s a simple song
Won’t stop the rain from coming down
Or your heart from breaking
Here’s a simple song
It’s never gonna turn this day around
Stop the earth from shaking
It’s just a simple song
Nothing right or wrong
You can sing along if you want to

Verse 2:
Well, I know it’s far from simple
But simple ain’t worth worryin’ about
Yeah, I know, I know
It’s time to go
I think I keep on finding
Everything seems to be about timing

Chorus:
Here’s a simple song
Won’t stop the rain from coming down
Or your heart from breaking
Here’s a simple song
It’s never gonna turn this day around
