It seems that every time something happens in my life, whether happy, sad, poignant, heartbreaking, etc... there is a Glen Hansard / Swell Season / Frames song that describes the situation perfectly. Every last time. It's such a comfort.
I doubt it was intentional, I'm afraid. As he says "And true love will find THEM in the end"... instead of "True love will find YOU in the end"... But, maybe. Who knows.
Hi, I think it was- I just spotted this quote from Glen while visiting Austin- Im quite familiar with Austin. Every time Im here I buy the whole Daniel Johnston cassette catalog.
@Georg1986 In the DVD that comes with the deluxe edition of 'Strict Joy,' he talks about how he just played it so much he played a hole through it... mostly 'cause he was busking in Ireland a lot. But yeah, it's pretty awesome.
@MrRandalFlagg I'd say go for it. On top of the actual album, you get an hour-or-so-long DVD of a live concert, where they pop in a little band commentary and documentary-type stuff in between songs. And you also get an audio CD of that show. 90% of the live songs aren't on the actual album, and I'd have to say I enjoy the live disc more than the album. All my favourite songs are on there, but it's your call because it'll probably cost you about $30 altogether. Was worth it for me though.
Oh Thank You Webmaster, I see that begging really did work! Although deep down I know that you were really just hanging on to the content until their tour brought them to their Canadian dates, but still...begging worked :)
Amazing!

I swear this is the only YouTube video without a dislike, and it is because this song is incredible.

I was thinking the same thing. I also doubt it, but it would be really cool if it was.

@humannuance I just commented regarding this but upon further checking found they actually performed together once last year- cool...

The Swell Season had Daniel Johnston sing for two songs with them on their Austin City Limits special
