    One of the best songs I've ever heard most of the views are probably from me . Without a doubt my favourite band in my 38 years of rocking. Rock on !

    I literally just learned about this band a couple of hours ago, as I just finished watching their Austin City Limits show they did back in 1/2023. Can't believe I never heard of them until now, because this kind of stuff is right up my alley. I really dug every song from that set.

      @@Ceini Under The Pressure is great. I Don't Live Here Anymore is great. But, like I wrote, I just discovered the band so I haven't heard everything they've done yet but I will eventually. They have a great sound. I play guitar and Adam's playing is exactly the sound I like.

    Lead me back to the place I'm from
    Past the farms and debris
    You can see it from the highlands
    As you roam 'long the range
    I've been on the look for a quiet place
    It's not far from of the range, baby
    Take me back to the one I love
    It's not far, it's on the way
    I've been ramblin'
    Burning tires on my street
    Past the roar and debris, baby
    All the kids dance around it
    Monkey likes what he sees
    I've been drinking up all the sweet tea
    It was made just for me
    I've been ramblin'
    I'm just driftin'
    Looking out for the one I love
    I've been down by the sea, baby
    I've been up in the highlands
    Past the farms and debris
    I've been rollin' down on the good stuff
    Past the roads I can see, oh babe
    Lead me back to the one I love
    All roads lead to me
    I've been movin'
    I'll be driftin'

    @krosm And...to belabor my point a bit... the colors rushing by are the blurred memories of the road, and the way the imagery is shot, in that soft, golden light feels very nostalgic to me. Like old, faded photographs, or a warm memory of a pastoral summer day. All that speaks of home.

    @y3k23k I think UO (blaming them since they produced the director's idea) just thinks we're all still blurry faced 16 yr-old hipster trash at heart! Agreeing with you, their new album is such a relief since I realized that the Arcade Fire now only likes chanting and organs, and that Cate Blanchett (looks like an alien) can't realistically take over for Dylan (probably thinks he's an alien). I've also given up hope that the Boss could ever get his real pipes back.

    @extremelybusy123 Hmmmm. I see it a bit differently. I think its the opposite. I think its the feeling of a homecoming after being away and disconnected and, like you say, lost or insubstantial in a way. The way the drum picks up intensity and force conveys a sense of arrival. His cheer at 1.52 is victory. The words talk of accepting a place, being proud of it, despite its warts and scars and finding your own spot in that familiar land. He's come back to PA, baby. Such a killer song. Goosebumps.
