Laura Veirs - Little Deschutes

it sure is hard to dance across
the room when you've got
one foot on the floor
and one foot outside the door.

i want nothing more
than to dance with you.

the peace i've known, floating along,
the deep green river with you and a song
is something like the peace i hope
to make with you my whole life long.

i want nothing more
than to float with you.

paddling through the hail storm,
clothes ravaged, the leaves all torn,
a part of me was born.

why care about yesterday's haze
when the stars above me are all ablaze?
why care about the coming dawn
when the moon pours now searchlight strong?

i want nothing more
than to dance with you.
i want nothing more
than to float with you.

This is gorgeous.

This is sad.

This is haunting.

This is emotional.

This is unforgettable.

This is a work of art.

This isn't mainstream.

Why does incredible music like this go undiscovered?

[SymphonyofTragedy]

Heard this on Ringer, liked it and sought it out.

i seriously find it ridiculous how underrated this chick is. amazingly unique and her songs are mesmerizing. i always play a sad little love story in my head while i listen to this.

you're great

kind of bittersweet hearing laura Veirs on the CW, initially I had no idea what song it was, I know this song so well but it was like seeing someone you know in a place they would never be...

@W3R3W00F It's undiscovered so that we "the great music enjoyers" can be the only ones who know what the music can really bring you, how can make you feel, how to touch your brain... I don't want the people who love Justin B.(I never thought I would type his name), Lady G.(hers neither) etc. (I won't type anymore, I respect my keyboard) to find out about wonderful artists and give them chance of ruining in some ugly and mysterious way... What's for the masses sucks.

@MaxPFE its crystalfilm by little dragon i like that song too =)

[thesuntheneonlight]

So many artists we fall out of love with, but I know I will adore her air for the rest of my life.

If you want to hear another song of hers, try "Cast a Hook." I heard it a few years ago and it almost immediately became a favorite of mine. It's not at all like this song, though.

@MrStGeorgeIllawarra everyone in while a song or 2 will generate interest but I guess that price you have to pay for mediocre drama. At least The WB introduce you good music and give viewers consistent quality.

[VerucaCrews]

love it.. :)

Say what you want about CW shows, but their choices of songs is usually spot on.
