Hear this song at work every day. Never can really hear what she is saying but the horn really sticks out. Finally just stood under the speaker today to pick out the words from the hook. Googled the lyrics and here I am.

Dearest Laura Viers,

Most hope you'll find a huge appreciation here in Denver town so you can headline Red Rocks like you deserve. Pike's Peak misses you so much, and so do we! Love, Park County and Denver too!

Nope; Portland, Oregon. But if you are able to receive CBC Radio 2 wherever you are[they have podcasts also], and listen to even a bit of Rich Terfry's show, you'll see Laura Veirs's music fits well with that format:  They really like eclectic singer/songwriters on "Drive."

@tamcon72

[tamcon72]

@TENNSUMITSUMA

People up-comments were saying they searched for this song here after hearing it on heavy rotation on Rich Terfry's show on Canadian radio. Her music is popular up in the Great White North :)
