Brett Anderson - Frozen Roads
And the snow in February falls, painting Winter hollow
And the fields they are an empty site, and the hills are like sorrow
And the hills are like sorrow
And your sun will rise again, and your moon will fall
And your sun will rise again, and your moon will fall
And your moon will fall
And I found the answer sitting there, with more than money
In the tangle of your angel hair, in your lips honey
And we were born muddled, but it was meant to be
And we were born muddled, but it was meant to be
It was meant to be
And your sun will rise again, and your moon will fall
And our sun will rise again, and our moon will fall
And our moon will fall
And the snow in February falls, painting Winter colours
And the landscape is an empty site, and the hills are like sorrow
Through the endless rage, on the frozen roads
On the frozen roads.
James - Sometimes (live)
There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder
Crack and thunder, is closing in, is closing in
The rain floods gutters, and makes a great sound on the concrete
On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain
Aerial held high, calling "come on thunder, come on thunder"
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
It's a monsoon, and the rain lifts lids off cars
Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome
Across the bay, the waves are turning into something else
Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore
The boy is hit, lit up against the sky, like a sign, like a neon sign
And he crumples, drops into the gutter, legs twitching
The flood swells his clothes and delivers him on, delivers him on
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
There's four new colors in the rainbow
An old man's taking polaroids
But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain
He says listen, takes my head and puts my ear to his
And I swear I can hear the sea
Somtimes, when I look in your eyes I can see your soul
(I can reach your soul)
(I can touch your soul)

One year walk/beard grow time lapse
Additional info:
- I never finished my original goal of walking to Germany. Instead, I walked for a year and roughly 4500km, passed the desert of Gobi, and then decided to stop walking for now.
- All of the distance from Beijing to Ürümqi has been completed solely on foot, straight good old walking. There are instances where you can see me in the video sitting on a plane or riding a boat, but those are during breaks I had to take from walking, either to sort out bureaucracy issues or to take care of some personal things.
- I had been planning this trip for over a year before I even started, and getting as far as I got was an experience for which I am very grateful.
- Obtaining the necessary visa for a trip like this was not very easy, hence I had to go back to Beijing a few times to resolve some issues.
- The songs I used in the video are 1) Zhu Fengbo - "Olive Tree" and 2) The Kingpins - "L'aventurier" - visit the Kingpins website if you want to know more, they are very cool I think.
- This is not a strict "1 pic a day" video, because I wanted to make it a bit more alive by adding some additional movement. Sometimes during the film you would follow me turn around, or something would happen in the background. I tried to capture these moments to make the video more interesting.
- The core of this project is in fact my website "www.thelongestway.com" where I have posted my extensive travel diary, starting from day 1 (Nov 9th 2007) and describing every single day until the end one year later.

E Minor - Other lives
I forgot something of younger days when there were no cares
Clouds appear lit that made me ask how their lives could have been spent
Carelessly wasting our days
Inquires of what is the way
With no reply
When you were young there's a lightness around you, the world turns
But when you take back all the things that you've earned you find nothing at all
Carelessly wasting our days
Inquires of what is the way
With no reply
Where did it go now
All that you thought was worth a fight
It's all but become just
A passing thought in spite
Don't let it go now
Our lives could be much more than this
Let go and find it
