Top Comments of this video!! :3
I remember listening to this song on my 20th birthday. I just went for a walk and listened to "twenty years", this song meant to me very much at that time. Now, when I'm almost 31 and remind myself about this song I always see that lost girl, that was trying to find herself through the music. Placebo helped me so much. <3

I heard Pacebo when they first came out and rediscovered them over the past few years. I'm stunned I could ever forget how amazing they were - intense, mood, hypnotic, their songs say so much. Their lyrics are a gut-punch, their music is a follow-up blow, although like many Placebo fans out there, I took a lot of comfort in their songs as a weirdo misfit. Unique is a word that's lost a lot of meaning, but there really is nobody else like them.

About the fact Brian was depressed at a phase in his life, he told this fact himself in a french interview: the atmosphere is happy, Brian makes jokes (in french of course, he' s a french fluent speaker) and suddently, he just says: "I will be very serious just a moment, even if it will break the joyfull atmosphere..." and just said he had overcome a real disease: going through nervous breakdown. He doesn' give details, but I remember him speaking of "une vraie maladie"/ true disease. It lasted just a few minutes.....I love Brian, he inspired my life so much, and many years after this interview, I can't forget this real need he had to just say he wasn't unbreakable and had suffered a lot.
This interview was brodcasted with Thierry Ardisson many years ago, maybe at the time of the release of "Sleeping with Goths ". I think Brian came twice maybe on this show which doesn't exist anymore today: "Tout le Monde en Parle"/ the title of the french show... the time he spoke about "the disease" he was fighting against was a time when his hair were very short, and, he was sitting next to a beautiful top model Beatriz, many fans are sitting around. Even if it was a very intimate moment, many young people heard him, and could identify. Many friends of mine worried a lot for him, for his health, after this parenthese which seemed to dispel the charm of this cool interview, so did I. He is still among us, thank you Brian for giving so much to so many people. Bonsoir.

There are twenty years to go
Twenty ways to know
Who will wear, who will wear the hat
There are twenty years to go
Best of all I hope
Enjoy the ride, the medicine show
Thems the breaks for we designer fakes
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye
There are twenty years to go
The faithful and the low
Best of starts, the broken heart, the stone
There are twenty years to go
Punch drunk and the blow
The worst of starts, the mercy part, the phone
Thems the breaks for we designer fakes
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye
Thems the breaks for we designer fakes
But it's you I take 'cause you're the truth not I
There are twenty years to go
A golden age I know
But all will pass, and end too fast you know
There are twenty years to go
Many friends I hope
Though some may hold the rose, some hold the rope
And that's the end and that's the start of it
That's the whole and that's the part of it
That's the high and that's the heart of it
That's the long and that's the short of it
That's the best and that's the test in it
That's the doubt to doubt the trust in it
That's the sight and that's the sound of it
That's the gift and that's the trick in it
You're the truth, not I
You're the truth, not I
You're the truth, not I
You're the truth, not I

Twenty years is not a long time as we imagined. I still remember everything very clearly. This 20 years hit me so hard. I only had 5 good event. Dont even know the numbers of bad ones. Dead of my grandparents, dead of my only big brother, dead of my first child in my womb, unfairnesses, times that i got fired, quited jobs and my desperations. I dont even know how many times I cried on carpet. I already accepted that there wont be good and happy days as I thought when I was a child. I only wish for normal and secure life for my family. Thats all.
