I have watched/listened to this about 2,000 times now and it is still just as great as it was when I first discovered it.

I like and enjoy the simplicity and the spareness of the video, the song and with just voice and acoustic guitar. I have become a new fan to Bill by way of this posting.

Thanks!!!!

Great song, thanks for posting

[byronicflare]

hey, is this from his "Whale heart" record?

His, ah, "solo" one?

[rabulaurvig]

This song is from a compilation album called A Drag City Supersession: Tramps, Traitors and Little Devils from 2001. Bill contributes with two songs under his Smog moniker. "Nothing Rises To Meet Me" and "Zero Degrees".
