The Cold War Kids are an indie rock band from Fullerton, California. The Song "Hospital Beds" depicts the joy and misery that is contrived during a human lifespan. Specifically, the lyrics of song is about the relationships between hospital patients that get to know each other from being placed in the same recovery room. One patient enjoys the relief of surviving and carrying out his or her life further. The other feels the remorse that comes with knowing that the end is soon to come.
The video truly captures the emotional ride of the lyrics. The story is about a love triangle between two best friends and a girl. The editing jumps forward and back between about two decades. From two men in a boxing ring about to duke it out, to an earlier time when two best friend are hanging out. is kissing the girl, and the other guy, walks in and int erupts. Clearly the girl was cheating on the guy with his best friend. The guilt of the friendship takes us back the boxing ring, where the one best friend kills his best friend with a vicious blow to the head.
The beauty of the song is that it generates the feelings of total opposite spectrum's. The audience goes through an emotional roller-coaster. The lyrics of chorus take the listener into a situation of emergency and chaos. There is a desperate need for help and assistance. The nature of the content can be universally felt. The relationships made by disasters have far more an impact because of the situation. The reality of the song has not been touched by many artists. The Cold Wars Kids website has a blog as its secondary page. The band keeps a diary of there tour. Keeping there fans up to date with there location giving the fan a real connection to the band.
