@emilbusman yep. they married on 5-9-2009.i saw them on 5-13, in ATL. we drove up from Tampa...i actually got to talk to Josh for about 10 minutes. he is as nice as you'd imagine. a very genuine guy. i have a few vids on youtube..8, i think from that show. search for 5-13-2010 ATL and look for sugerkat postings. it was an incredible show and if you have the chance to see them live, DON'T pass it up. it was full of energy and i was CLOSE! my purse was LITERALLY leaning against his amp.
Although unfortunately not a culturally significant song considering that most are not concerned with poetry these days, I don't at all believe that calling "The Temptation of Atom" one of the greatest songs ever written is an overstatement. This song belongs in the same league as "Hallelujah" by Cohen, and "Something" by Harrison and others of the greatest songs. I sincerely hope this brilliant lyric will one day be discovered when poetry of such depth comes back in to fashion.
josh, thank you. you speak to what is important. your words flow like poetry. you move me and my mind and my soul. Sandpoint was great even if I got in trouble for standing to dance in the blanket section.
Phenominal. He amazes me. His wife, Dawn Landes, is good too.

Just so we're all clear here, it's "The Temptation of Adam" not "Atom".

Wonderful song, you're so afraid of losing someone that you'll start WWIII to keep them? That's pretty intense.

this reminds me of the show he played here (calgary)... there was very little light, solo acoustic show, and very few people. incredible.

Thanks for posting this; such a great video! Josh at his best I think, intimate and stripped down.
