Is it necessary that every Son Volt or Wilco video becomes a pissing match of who's better. They are totally different bands. It's like comparing hockey and basketball. Everyone knows hockey is better. Jay shoots and scores.
@Malkmusianful Trace is Trace. big part of my life in the '90s. but AGiB is a whole other animal. let's be honest: Hell is Chrome is better than anything Farrar's ever done
I was HUGE into the grunge movement of the 90s, still am. But I've always adored this song and find it an important ingredient of my nostalgia for that time period.
I wish we could bring Progressive Rock back like this again. When everyone was all over Nirvana, Nine Inch Nails, and all the other "Alternative" bands polluting our airwaves, this was what was helping to shape my tastes when I was a young buck. Now at 33, I find Sun Volt's and other Progressive artists' lyrics and music are still pure works of art. Thank you so much for posting this. It's really been a great trip down memory lane, but this song still stands the test of time.
@BillCosbysHair hell yeah ..i am recently finding out whats good for me ,,,but this song has been one of my faves since before any of my children were born
@talpajam I hear the burrito bros everywhere now you commented this,watching true blood it was on the radio,"shes a devil in disguise.".A well consructed comment,very rare on utube,haha.

@ThelynxAZ you forgot wilco
Volt may have "Trace," but Wilco has "A Ghost is Born," "The Whole Love," and "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" goin' for them.

I would give Wilco as much credit as I would give Son Volt in this genre.

Sky cracks open, walls falling to the floor
Just as well to keep it, a guessing game in store
You're with me now, will be again, All other points in between
And the cruel, cruel mornings, Have turned to days of swim or sink
If living right is easy, what goes wrong, You're causing it to drown
Didn't want to turn that way, You're causing it to drown
Doesn't make a difference now, You're causing it to drown
Silence knows, can't drown a heart

I saw Son Volt at the Pageant on my birthday. It was the first rock concert I had ever been to and it was one of the best nights of my life.

@TheStreetShaman Nirvana had two good albums and a live set, bro.
Can't ignore them.
Also, Son Volt's only godly album is "Trace." It is the purest distillation of their sound - Uncle Tupelo if Uncle Tupelo grew big balls.

Needless to say, it's a good song.
