How do you say Brightly Wound?

Eisley fans in real life tend to pronounce it differently. So, I was wondering how you think it is said?

(or if you know for sure)

so, what kind of wound is this?


# noun: any break in the skin or an organ caused by violence or surgical incision
# verb: cause injuries or bodily harm to
# verb: hurt the feelings of
# adjective: put in a coil

i think its 'wound' as in 'being put in a coil'... i remembered thats what sherri pronouned it as when introducing the song.. i might be wrong though hehe

i used to think that the track was titled 'bright wounds'.. hehee..

I've only heard Sherri pronounce it "WOW-nd". So that's how I pronounce it. I think it was in the recording of their first performance as Eisley instead of Moss Eisley that she said it.

I figured it was wound like a coil cause I just think of a guitar's strings being wound to sound .. bright(ly)?

Ooooh, wow, I never thought of it being anything but 'wound' as in to injure, but now I don't know.

I thought it to be a verb, sort of like growing up is wounding, and the 'brightly' part meaning a bright, fresh wound...

Golly, Poster


i thought it was wound (to injure) for the longest time which i thought fit because the song could be taken as memories of a relationship long past and not wanting to leave that time, which at first hurts.
now i hear wound (to coil) which does seem to fit better with my interpretation of the song (coil up and hide from the present), and the "brightly" part of the title.

thanks for bringing that up! i lost a lot of sleep over that.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was puzzled by this.
