you know a song is great when you cant help but close your eyes to truly listen and appreciate the song :) The Great Lake Swimmers have helped me through the hardest times in my life, this song is beautiful
This has become one of the most inspirational songs of my lifetime. I think a VERY under-rated band. The abruptly un-rhythmic lyric "I can't be sober and win you over" gives me inspiration as an artist...thank you GLS. Cant wait til you cruz back to Denver!!!!
@SuperAlucky - Check out: Ray Lamontagne, Matthew Santos, Brooke Miller, Iron and Wine and Jeff Buckley for a start. Also look up Kristi Nelson and Trevor Wheetman and possibly Death Cab for Cutie. Of course there are many more but this list will lead you to them anyway so there's no point in mentioning others - AJ
fix the lyrics a bit and this song will be a big hit i promise! i.e: "don't have a switch for that" wtf?!, "and i refused to let anyone through" too long, "and it's like someone else is driving" auto-pilot? =/.
Another thing i noticed, you cant tell when it's the chorus or not. which makes the song kinds boring... Plz, plz plz fix it, i tried to do it myself, and came up with soething, let me know if u want me to pm it to you.
@DcaffCap Dude. did you seriously say that? This type of music is more a form of art than entertainment. 'i don't have a switch for that' expresses an inability.
the fact that this song is unconventional is what makes it interesting. I can't believe you have the audacity to suggest to the artist your own modified version of the song!!! Its like saying the Mona Lisa would be a better paining if she was wearing sexier clothing.
So I say to you WTF!! Get a life and write your own music. Clown
im strangely addicted to this song. it soothes me...
if only i could have perfect memory, and just . . . listen to it while i sleep... but wishes don't come true. *frown* they should though... lol sorry, i'm rambling. this should have more views.
deren't any guitar tutorials fr this amazing piece... :(
