What album is this on?

FRANK, FUCKING. TURNER.

[theravingpunk]

such a clever song, refereing to religous 'icons' to make the very important point of get off your arse and follow youre heart - "be what you dream and then take to the road"

[SuperMarketPunkRock]

@theravingpunk the journey of the magi is actually a poem by t.s elliott...all about the not being sure if faith is worth it in the end.

[TheSarge21]

@SuperMarketPunkRock The poem, and song, is essentially both of these points, and how sometimes our faith can limit us to play it safe, instead of go for something that ultimately, may challenge what you believe.

[theravingpunk]

@SuperMarketPunkRock oh i didnt know that - i hear what youre saying but you can analyse poems/songs/pieces of art meanings subjectivley - to me, the song means that. nice info tho

[SuperMarketPunkRock]

@theravingpunk yeah very good point, i love your interpretation, very true!!

[myarseisround]

it sounds like they used a effect on his voice, pitch correcter or something.

[theravingpunk]

@myarseisround not likely, i dont think its in his ethics to cheat

[myarseisround]

@theravingpunk i know, he's against it, but sometimes these shows edit it afterwards.

[theravingpunk]

@myarseisround yh i suppose, i dont know, great song either way

[3jesselove]

I know he sings better then me but hes a bit "out of tune" and "yell into the microphone" person

[turialx]

listening to this song live for the first time is what made me a fan instantly. almost brings a tear to my eye.

[alsetsfire]

This is truly one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Frank is ridiculously talented!
