Back again. This song inspired me to make amends with my old high school bully, and write my ex a letter wishing her well. Even though she hurt me so terribly. “This is for you to overcome, but I will always love you” was my mantra when healing from losing her. Thank you Dawes for the beautiful music
This is some Jedi level songwriting. Dawes is especially great at thematically linking verses, from the personal level (first) to the compassionate level (second) to the spiritual level (third). The instrumental fills compliment and accentuate everything. It's quite genius.
I love the ease with which musicians of this caliber perform a song. This is just perfect.
They are so locked in together. This is the perfect example of a band playing to compliment each other rather than each musician looking to steal the show.
IMO one of the best bands on this planer
This song is good enough to stand the test of time along with the rest of the timeless classics. Simply timeless. Thank you for taking me out of these four walls for 6:47. even the briefest of fleeting moments matter.
it's amazing how such a long song flies by, and leaves me actually sad that it's over...so so good.
Keep the faith, June.
Best song I've heard in 2018!
that drummer felt every single note. fantastic player.
Unbelievable performance. I cried!
I can´t believe it. Only ten comments for this awesome performance. It´s the only proof that we are literally few with a good taste of music
There are not many songs that make you smile and cry at the same time. Just wow!
I wanna sit with my enemies and say we should have done this sooner while I look them in the face...
Who are his "enemies"?
DAWES is a very refreshing band w/ real musical substance and song writing that tells a story w/ harmonies and positive vibe .... Thanks you guyz this is the shit, in a good way ......
This band keeps getting better and the song writing is perfect. Thanks Dawes for making me cry with this one!
They are all so into it, it's amazing. Love this song.
the lyrics I find emotional
One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.
this is the second time I've cried listening to this song today. full of healing energy.
One of the very best teams out there. Lovely . . ...
True professionalism, love these guys.
Wow this makes me feel some type of way...
Great sound and awesome band as good as anything from my days in the 70's. Awesome songwriting and musicians. My days of listening to great Jackson Brown music:)!
Love this tune.
Def a fan of the KMS 105
and those floor toms sound amazing!!!!
So Mandy Moore got me here, this is US music you will never hear in Europe and that's really too bad. I will share this with friends! All the best from the Netherlands.
Such a deeply beautiful song.
this song is amazing in so many ways. it breaks all the rules and is perfect. i love it.
this is literally perfect.
God frekn daaamn!!!! Music, sweet music.
Absolutely incredible song, simply perfect in every way. The lyrics really resonate
So deep and relax
superb!
I will do your interview
Try to explain what I'm going through
Give you something to read into
In a million different ways
A sick version of telephone starts at the clip of the microphone
A game we thought we had all outgrown, but still everybody plays
Ignoring all of the remedies, believing all of the rumors
With their endless database
I wanna sit with my enemies and say
We should have done this sooner
While I look them in the face
Maybe that would crack the case
I got a friend who's been thinking
About finally kicking her husband out
His second life as a talent scout, finally got him caught
While she was throwing out all his clothes
She heard a voice from beyond the throes
Punish him for the life he chose
But forgive the past that he did not!
It's really hard to hate anyone
When you know what they've lived through
And once they've given you a taste
She said
This is for you to overcome
But I will always love you
In her perfect state of grace
Maybe that would crack the case
Now that we're through with formalities
What is it you wanna ask of me?
I'll answer open and honestly
Whatever that means
Findin' out that we occupy
Somebody else's opposin' side
On the banks of some great divide
Two versions of a dream
Countless revisions of history
Tryin' to tell us the future
Between each commercial break
I wanna call off the cavalry
Declare no winners or losers
And forgive our shared mistakes
You can pick the time and place
Maybe that would crack the case
great performance, reminds me of late for the sky in feel
Another person that loves this band suggested this song is relevant to our society’s race relations these days. Sounds like a love song to me. Am I just dumb?
Very good!
Great
A poignant song as 2019 ends.Dawesome.
One of my all time favorites. Anyone know what kind of bass he's using?
Anyone here in 2021
This guy is like Bruce Hornsby for millennials
Who are his enemies?
This song's about Ryan Adams and his so called demise. While y'all got married. I love you, Dawes. But I love Ryan. So he's an asshole. Shocker. Let's stop canceling. I love you all.
