The Head And The Heart - Down In The Valley (not the video)

[nokareful]

that awkward moment when you hate both top comments...

[eugTheCrotch]

@nokareful i hate them both too and i hate yours as well.

[otherdash]

Great music, not so great that the video is only available to theee select...

[TheVideoGenre]

Video is 'private' -.- dickheads.

[OrangeRhinoceros]

Where does this band come from?

[ToxicSoccerPlaya4124]

@OrangeRhinoceros Seattle

[MrLooopen]

Doesn't sound like they've drank much whiskey to me. More like cocktails and lite beers.

[wisteria227]

but down in the valley with whiskey rivers, these are the places you will find me hiding

[eugTheCrotch]

i bet they live in LA or some other major city in the us

[dlo925]

Come to Green Bay/Milwaukee!!!!!

[WarPigz0]

And this was just removed by SOPA

[introducingshelby]

Nylon Summer '11 Free Playlist brought me here c:

[wonderbread61595]

so are we (:



[airienning]

yaeh , matluthfi !

[daniaearth1996]

The first time that I ever heard them, I cried and laughed, out of happiness.

[TricksterVision]

My substitute teacher told me to listen to these guys. Apparently he's a close friend of them...That's pretty Hesh.

[CaptainHooksGirl1]

Over and Over. Thank you for making this song. It absolutely reminds me of my recently deceased 'Good ole Boy' Father. Beautiful Song. Thank You!

[4shanksful]

@CaptainHooksGirl1 it reminds me of mine too! it'll be a year january 20th since He passsed away..hats off to our old men ;)

[IFeelHappyInside4]

their music is seriously incredible. amazing talent and beautiful lyrics.

[BigRockMusicFan]

Great sync!

[ZoddTheNosferatu]

Thank you NPR, WUWF, and World Cafe for this...

[MrFeyerwire]

After i am done listening to this song you can find me down at "Whiskey River" 

[YankeeRhoad]

These guys don't put out ANY bad tunes!!!!! I'm a believer :)

[TheMoocowmoo]

I just love it. It's so beautiful.

[emmyrae42]

[NedGedd97]

[musicgirls21]

I can never find any better word for this song than "perfect".

[ortag4949]

This is music, simple, truthful and beautiful. Love it.

[LiveLife4EverHopeful]

she looks so sad. :{

[ventilatedzygote]

this is total escapism. the world is not full of valleys and whiskey rivers anymore. there are no more rural values. instead we have mcdonalds and bestiality porn. if you dislike this, fight it, don't try to escape it.

[xopriscillerzxo]

never do i tire of hearing this song <3

[phesuffocation]

i played this song when i was in inpatient treatment at hospital during music group and it moved everyone to tears. it still moves me to tears. it really describes so much about life.

[Killerdoctor27]

@phesuffocation I hope you get your drug problem under control. I wish you the best:)

[DEDEDESAMLOL]

[Killerdoctor27]

I smoked bud and got drunk with these guys... They are really cool and laid back. Man it was a great night:)

[hjalmarBuoi]

@Killerdoctor27 sure, we all did

[marcelodevetula]

you should have settled down with them.

[abc123caw]

@Killerdoctor27 That's so chill.



[Natilover7]

This is officially my favorite song.

[johnstacy000]

Found a violin tutorial to this song. He sucks, but the notes seem right.

You have to type in "Head and the Heart Violin Tutorial"

It won't let me paste the URL :/

[MsDamfino]

For anyone searching for this song, it is available to download free at Amazon. You can get the song by itself or download the SubPop Sampler Album "23 This Year" (which is also free and I highly recommend grabbing it).

[MamaMichelesArt]

Beautiful:)

[mychemicalladdance]

What store can I buy one of their CD's from? (Mall/bookstore/walmart?)

[classicrock297]

@mychemicalladdance i saw it at HMV if you know what that is :p

[hemlockww]

can you allow this to be played on ipod/iphone/ipad pleeeeeeeeezzzzz (:

[ElphMuzic]

@hemlockww it's allowed. buy it.

[hemlockww]

@ElphMuzic not on youtube!

[walterrainfax]

i could listen to this song all day and not get sick of it. In fact that is what i have been doing all day! :) love this song and i could also see this in a movie.

[deepknotch]

THE SIGHT OF BLOOD MAKES ME HUNGRY

[MMI4effinglife]

I love this song. It's so comforting. It helps me remember that no matter how bad things get, it will always look up.

[jojo13108]

i love this song my brother sings it all the time and he is a great singer

[alliethebanana]

i want someone to make lyrics of this

[lalalynds0523]

I moved recently, and had not heard this band in a while. Today I realized how much I adore this band, and how much music truly means to me.

[klacsanzky77]

It gives me chills to hear real music. When you can feel the genuine nature coming though the music, how can you doubt their importance? A great balance of the right mood, simplicity and meaning.

[JosephCKeane]

SUBPOP is one of my favorite labels for this very reason! <3

[christr09]

so so good . so relaxing

[MeGsMuSiCcOrP]

This is.. Possibly the best song I've ever heard..:)

I'm so glad not many people know about this band.. I'll keep it to myself.

[shredderman4ever]

@MeGsMuSiCcOrP HIPSTER!!!! i like it

[ukelivia]

@MeGsMuSiCcOrP hipster.

[MeGsMuSiCcOrP]

@ukelivia Is that a bad thing? You make it seem like I mean bad to everyone. Hehe, it's okay if I'm a hipster with my music, I love cherishing things that matter to me and music is one of them. I also am not into Mainstream music, it's too repetitive and "pop-like".

I'm such a HIPSTER.

I embrace this with a warm hug and a biscotto!

[ukelivia]

@MeGsMuSiCcOrP no way. It's awesome. Hipsters are some of the only people I can stand, which is why I aspire to be one.

[realityistheillusion]

The best act at Bonnaroo hands down, both sets. Sorry Arcade Fire. :-)

[aidan9]

@realityistheillusion my morning jacket was epic as well

[WalcottVamp]

This is so beautiful..

[lekagirl159]

Saw you guys in Des Moines,IA on Thursday. We were lucky enough to be right up front! Amazing!! My love and I were completely blown away. Memorial night. Thank you so much for the evening and memories.

[jshimonski]

@lekagirl159

I was there too! XD for my birthday. They were great! So was Iron and Wine. I bought one of The Head and the Heart t-shirts and they all signed it for me. I love music like this..

[Blakchonies]

@jshimonski i saw iron & wine at Sasquatch! and was very very sad :( not at all what i imagined

[stars512]

Is it weird I have like the same goat mask. . .

[jezx21]

i heard these guys on the radio the other day...not bad at all :)

[naotenhomaisopcao]

4 people don't have a soul

[antiquemnj]

matluthfi90 brought me here !

[o0wen0o]

I'm seeing them today at a local radio station!

[myspicyburrito]

@o0wen0o no way! i wanted to go to the end session but couldn't :( tell me how it goes!

[kretzloff22]

if this is country, then I'm offically a country fan. Going to their show this Saturday (4/30/11) in Seattle @ the Moore theater! Tickets still available. Bring your cowboy hat.

[kretzloff22]

if this is country, then I'm offically a country fan. Going to their show this Saturday (4/30/11) in Seattle @ the Moore theater! Tickets still available. Bring your damn cowboy hat.



[thecomfortisnow]

they are gonna be on CONAN!! i dunno if today or tommorrow.

[balognaofwin]

Hey, I recognize that sheep mask! It is very prevelant in a music video by a band I like... guess which one? I'LL NEVER TELL!

[jugjugsthekoolaidman]

@balognaofwin tell me!!!

[incudude311]

i think what royconway was trying to say is that this uses the elements of country music to their full potential, whereas typical country tends to resort to formulaic and soulless garbage.

[jugjugsthekoolaidman]

this song is amazing. truely

[nykballaz]

so beautiful

[MegaBbop]

its called indie/folk people damn country sucks though there are faint elements of country music here

[nykballaz]

@MegaBbop i love the insult/compliment lol

[andresmusic2011]

It's a great time for indie rock/rock and roll.

[highjackflash]

@andresmusic2011 hellyeahfuckyeah

[royconway]

this is what country music could be.

this is what country music should be, because this is good.

[TheShaggySurfer]

@royconway This isn't country you moron.

[icelandsigurros]

@TheShaggySurfer it is derivative of country music. yes it is

[Tdemon]

@icelandsigurros It's folk. :/ Folk is different than country. 

[KeepYouStokes]

@TheShaggySurfer lol its folky and thats were country gets its roots

[shanghaimaster5]

@TheShaggySurfer actually its a little happier version of johnny cash's form of country, still country roots

[jacksprat2012]

@royconway I disagree, you can't really say this is the way a whole genre should be. Country music is very varied, and although this is good you can't say all of it should be like this :)

[royconway]

this is what country music could be.

[Emsym14]

I've listened to this song since around October, and it just gets better every time i listen to it.

[neckfacesupra]

good!

[KeyTeaMarie]

i could see this song in a movie :)

[bazmanj]

@KeyTeaMarie , my thoughts exactly, probably something with zac braff from scrubs

[ItsHayat]

@KeyTeaMarie Hear*

[superchunk20]

@KeyTeaMarie You can't see songs, Silly!

[pootytrick]

loved it
