'Even the Darkness Has Arms' takes its cues from the old "talking' blues" style of songwriting, but with a more personal subject . The lyrics are fast, the tempo is brisk, it stays light on its feet. If you ever woke up in a bed without somebody, and you didn't know the bed or the room or the city, this song might be for you.

Count me too😂😂
Same
Me too haha
such a relaxing song. perfect for road trips , you know when your driving alone watching the sun set.
that’s such a perfect image
I did that to it, and many of their other songs. Perfect road music.
I was holding my breath when the tightrope walker slipped into the moon glow
Saying all my children, follow me
Maybe it's time to go
You can be chrome when you're wise
You can be wise when you're blue
And baby, if I have
Then I have for you
Bribing the jury to keep me in jail, singing "Tea for the Tillerman"
And although I lie fantastically, I swore an oath on my history
It's a miracle I can see
You can be wrong when you're right
Even when you're right on cue
And if I die tonight
Then I die for you
Calling on those that call me son
Great-grandson and grandson
Great uncles, aunts, and relatives
To judge what I have done
Wanna make it right by you
Even if it's all I do
And if it's all I do
Then I do it for you
People will raise a whole lotta hell about the water in the windmill
And although I stab chaotically
It hurts no one but me
Even the darkness has arms
But they ain't got you
And baby, I have it
And I have you, too
And a light in the window to pass the night through
May be so uncertain but what can I do
Keeping it on, keeping it on
And I know I like it but what does that prove
Sometimes I worry I don't know how to love you
I bring to you with reverent hands
All the books that my love abides
The kind woman that my passion wore
Like the shoreline wears the tides
Maybe the water went dry
Keeping an eye on you
And with an eye on you
It could drown me, too
People will raise a whole lotta hell about the water in the windmill
And although I stab chaotically
I swore an oath on my history
It's a miracle I can see
Even the darkness has arms
But they ain't got you
And baby, I have it
And I have you, too
And a light in the window to pass the night through
May be so uncertain but what can I do
Keeping it on, keeping it on
And I know I like it but what does that prove
Sometimes I worry I don't know how to love you
Thank you.
Rest in peace, my friend. The last thing you shared with me was this song. You’ll never get to read this or all of the love we all have for you. We miss you 🪶
My God, what a beautiful tune.
Thanks Spotify
lol same
This song is like watching old videos of people traveling to the desert , national parks and going on road trips across the US of A. 👌🏼
Love this band ,this song has a little Simon and Garfunkel vibe ,wow.
Agree!
+godbyone andy godby i was thinking the exact same thing
Definitely reminds of Simon and Garfunkel. Good music.
The boxer?
I did not see that until now
Incredibly talented. I'm not going to lie... at first I thought Trey was the vocals but The Barr Brothers are actually really unique once I kept listening. Wish you guys the best and hope that there's a lot more to come.
Saw them last night in London,
Incredible!
It is my first time listening to their songs.
I've even googled their bio because I love the sensiblity of the songs.It is quite different from the other genres that I've used to listened. And I love to play their songs when I'm about to sleep.

c'est classe ,mélodie imparable ,à découvrir en live ,magique
This song is intoxicating 😊
These lyrics might just be the best lyrics I've ever heard
tree seal of approval
thanks, tree
I appreciate you Tree.
My favourite song of 2014 so far.
Good song to get lost rocking your head to haha
Definitely going into rotation in my chill mix. 😌
'Adore them. A music supreme. The young S&G.
Ashby brought me here. This is far from the genres of music I normally listen to, but I like this.
Brittany Porter learned this from Ashby as well
My new favorite song.
Gonna use this song at the end of my wedding next year!!
This song is for me and my love.. the love of my life.
Feeling relaxed.... unbelievably beautiful
Rest in peace, Kohi
🪶
Can't wait to hear the new album!!
Perfection.
Very cool. Reminds me of the great group America.
so many layersss :)
I love 2:04 "sometimes i worry i dont know how to love you"
New fave band ♥
Very nice!
Hey Wally, if you see this, hope you're having an awesome time at uni xx
this is a great song
Wow what a song.
Radio in Nashville brought me to listening to these amazing brotherssss!
Beautiful guitar!
Quality song...
This song and band is pretty freakin' awesome
Il faut que j'écoute cette toune au moins 2 fois de suite pour me rassasier! J'adore!
Clear influences cited above, Simon, Knopfler, and I'll add Cat Stevens since they drop references to him in a number of their songs including this, and I definitely hear some upper register Cat in the lead vocal. Maybe when he gets some years behind him, umpteen cartons of Camels, and just keeps working on it, the lead vocal will acquire the Cat's lower register growl/purr. Can't fairly say if they have melodies quite as memorable as from those cited because I haven't listened to their whole repertoire.
I hear a little Tom Petty too
2 cool for this city I'm in.
the intro picking is amazing
so good
Love this music, great stuff guys!
This is very cool!
Awesome!
J'écoute, je décolle ! Superbe talent !
Perfect for road trips or watching the sun rise
Esta canción me relaja tanto que la uso para dormir y duermo muy tranquila
new fave band
Keep on Keeping on.
Love
This is what's called "actual music".
Cecile, obrigado por tudo!
Love finding great music like this out of the blue. Can anyone point me out some artists that have this sound/fit this genre?
brian firkus this town
Sweet!
Reminds me of Bruce Cockburn's "Wondering Where The Lions Are"
this song. jesus
power in a sligtly way, keepin it on
This is amazing.
Very good, Sounds like a mix of Blue Rodeo , Bruce Cockburn & Dire Straits maybe?
This has Mark Knopfler influence written all over it. Not that that's a bad thing. It's certainly not.
❤❤❤
Great
I was holding my breath,
When the tightrope walker,
Slipped into the moonglow,
Saying all my children follow me,
Maybe it’s time to go.
You can be chrome when you’re wise,
Can be wise when you’re blue,
And baby if I have,
Then I have for you .
Bribing the jury to keep me in jail,
Singing tea for the Tillerman,
And although I lie fantastically,
I swore an oath on my history,
It’s a miracle I can see.

Even when you’re right on cue,
And if I die tonight,
Then I die for you.

Great uncles, aunts and relatives,
To judge what I have done,
Gonna make right by you,
Even if it’s all I do,
And if it’s all I do, then I do for you.
People will raise a whole lotta hell,
About the water and the windmill,
And although I stab chaotically,
It hurts no one but me,
Even the darkness has arms,
But it ain’t got you,
Baby I have it and I have you too.
And a light in the window,
To pass the night through,
May be so uncertain but what can I do,
Keepin’ it on, keepin’ it on,
And I know I like it but,
What does that prove?
Sometimes I worry I don’t know,
How to love you.

All the books that my love abides,

It's intentional. It's a style called "talking blues" :)
His voice sounds a little like Tom petty in some verses
*___*
lack of energy
Very nice!
