Phish - Billy Breathes

Studio version of "Billy Breathes" by Phish off of "Billy Breathes"

Tumbling greens
A pickup screams
Alone above the square
Oh sing softly

Above the trees
Where Billy breathes
We float upon the air

Softly sing sweet songs

Silent scenes
In motion means
Ill wake you when were there
Oh sing softly

Time, it seems
In broken dreams
To sleep beside the stair

This song makes me want to work on a farm driving a tractor with a hat.

This is the song that basically got me "hooked" on Phish. haha true story though this has gotta be one of, if not my absolute favorites by them, no doubt.

This will always be my favorite Phish song and arguably the best guitar solo ever. Breathe on Billy!!!

This was the first "new" Phish album I bought way back in '96. Of course, I was in my dorm room, tokin' a doob for probably only the 10th time. Those were the days. This song has one of the most sincere and serious feels of any Phish song to me. Trey's solo pretty much makes me weep every time. This was truly Phish's heyday, and probably the best album produced. Not necessarily my favorite album though. Junta and Rift definitely have this one beat.

Set this album cover next to the cover for King Crimson's "In the Court of the Crimson King". The Crimson King is terrified of Billy.
