The Middle East makes Australia that much more awesome. and the fact that they got to where they are after calling it quits is such a cool success story. I'll never get enough of this song.
some new unknown music in case you're interested (let me know what you think!): /watch?v=a78JZuwfuBA
my friend and i were talking about moving out west. i was thinking about going myself when i played this song. then i logged onto facebook and the top post was this song by the same friend i was planning on going out west with...
maybe its just a coincidence but it might be some kind of sign... i am starting to think that since we both are heading in that direction we might as well go together now that we both had the same song in mind. f it... its worth finding out.
older father, weary soul, you'll drive back to the home you made on the mountainside with that ugly, terrible thing those papers for divorce and a lonely ring a lonely ring sit on your porch and pluck your strings and you'll find somebody you can blame and you'll follow the creek that runs out into the sea and you'll find the peace of the Lord. grandfather, gentle soul, you'll fly over your life once more before you die since our grandma passed away you've waited for forever
older brother, restless soul, lie down lie for a while with your ear against the earth and you'll hear your sister sleep talking say "your hair is long but not long enough to reach home to me but your beard someday might be" and she'll wake up in a cold sweat on the floor next to a family portrait drawn when you were four and beside a jar of two cent coins that are no good no more she'll lay it aside
is this the band's official music video for this song? i love it. its sooo simple and very artistic! reminds me of the old books i used to read when I was a kid.
@kerennXo lol alot im guessing =) you should try fleet foxes or boy and bear i think youd like gregory and the hawk-baots and birds but cus its kinda like this song
@lnnerPeace wow... that was sort of funny the first time I heard it about Maroon 5 ...like 10 years ago...Sir you do not deserve to listen to this beautiful masterpiece. go troll someplace else and please do drop dead.
saw these guys at the start of the year in perth and they had the crowd just in a silent trance like state then finished in a flurry and it was mesmerizing and uplifting. thank you middle east
Music as it is mend to be, it reaches way more than one sense..amazingly dynamic song!..4 peeps with no taste for good music, got to feel a bit srry for 'm.
I was going through a really hard time back then, and as I was sitting there watching a music show, this song came on. I burst into tears as soon as the vocals started, and watched the rest of the song in awe, drawn in by the pure beauty of it all.
This song is unreal. Even better in person! I saw them open up for Mumford & Sons and they finished with this song, unreal! reviewed it at the Truthfully Lying blog
This is da most beautiful song ive herd! actuali herd dis bot a week ago nd fell in love wit it! so mch depth which i personally luv, its kinda sad 2!
