I was listening to one of my many versions of MHWGO this evening when I had an idea to post one version per day for the month of February. I realized I only have about 24 versions. I also didn’t feel like waiting for February...January has been long as fuck. Alas....
It’s been a very long time since I gave this cover a listen; it’s beautiful. Having additional Titanic-themed music that wasn’t in the film always makes me imagine Jack and Rose outside of the context of the film. This version of MHWGO is so soft and intimate. The guitar evokes foreign land, somewhere far away, somewhere peaceful where their worries would wash away.
Jack and Rose living happily post Titanic, traveling the world, walking hand and hand along a beach as the sun sets. Jack comes up behind Rose placing his arms around her waist and his head upon her shoulder. The waves tumble and crash on the shore in the foreground of a painted-pink sky. Sun beams bounce off their kissing cheeks. The horizon stares them right in the face, as if no time has passed. Their dreams as present as ever.Â
