This is just one of them songs where you just stare aimlessly into the distance or at something inconsequentially and think about your life just recalling memories.
@DanJames97 hahaha you fuckin hit the nail on the head. i read your comment and it then it occured to me exactly what i did for 4 mins straight without realizing it.
unfortunately this guy looks like olly murs - what an unfortunate coincidence. Fortunately he has the most amazing ability to write songs that just pop back in your life now and then and make you really happy.
This is one of the most honest songs I've ever heard. "Oh my Lord, why am I not strong? Like the wheel that keeps travellers travelling home, like the wheel that will take you home." I think it's about feeling helpless and small, not being able to take care of the ones you love.

Personally, I think all he has on Bob Dylan is his vocal talent. Lyrics are arguable because Bob Dylan is a poet. No getting around that. I take a different meaning from the styles of these two exceptional artists, but I can't say TTMOE is better yet because he hasn't left the mark that Dylan has.
Our generations Bob Dylan...I know it's a controversial way to label him, but he NEVER fails to make me feel how i imagine our parents felt when they listened to "Blood on the Tracks" or "Blonde on Blonde"....and then some. My girlfriend has exquisite taste, yet always seems to complain about his voice, but i think it's nothing short of angelical, original, and straight from the soul.
@Neonb1bLes Comparisons to Bob Dylan are valid. But this whole generation gap thing is garbage. Young people now can still listen to both Bob Dylan and Tallest Man On Earth. I just feel like some people think that just because they weren't around for most of Bob Dylan's career, means that they have to find some younger guy who's like him. There won't be another Bob Dylan. There will, however, be other poets, and great musicians..and that's what I see when I listen to The Tallest Man On Earth...
This is so amazing. It's got such a sad mood to it. I really have to buy this guy's albums! I love his acoustic guitar tracks, but I hope he does more with piano.
He's definitely got a dylanesque vibe going on.
