LYRICS
I’ve rolled around this earth a few times over But never have I ever seen something so absurd Are you a paradise bird?
‘Cuz violet shines bright in both your eyes That can’t be natural
Indigo flares up in your hair
That can’t be natural
Am I seeing clearly?
Can those marigold ears hear me? Fade to black I don’t know how to act Just act natural
I’ve been a witness to forgiveness in the worst of weather But never have I ever seen someone so free
You’re such a mystery to me
You even sparkle in the dark oh I can’t unseen it Is this some kind of butterfly rebirth?
Are you from this earth?
‘Cuz violet shines bright in both your eyes That can’t be natural
Indigo flares up in your hair
That can’t be natural
Am I seeing clearly?
Can those marigold ears hear me? Fade to black I don’t know how to act Just act natural
Do you see me? Maybe I don’t know Do you think I’m crazy? Probably so I don’t know what to say or do
And I know that we’ve just met
But I’m willing to bet
That I’m falling in love with you
Violet shines bright in both your eyes That can’t be natural
Indigo flares up in your hair
That can’t be natural
Am I seeing clearly?
Can those marigold ears hear me? Fade to black I don’t know how to act Just act natural

It’s just magnetic. Even if you did not like the song ten minutes later you are singing it.
"you think I'm crazy
probably so"
love that line and delivery so much
Tastes like good ol’ days back in the 90’s 🎧
Well said. What a song.
It's definitely the same vibe I got
This is such high quality example of song writing, the right chords at the right time, a nice hummable riff, sweet little middle 8, it's all there.
No idea what a middle 8 is, but this is top ten! 😍
@@heideggerdowson think it's more of a UK thing to call the Bridge a middle 8 (but it is actually 8 bars in this case)
It's a hit. Much like Rilo Kiley back in the day
@@benday1218 not 9 bars? from 2:42-3:05 am I counting wrong?
@@hiroprotagonitis ooh yes, you're right, I counted wrong...
I heard this on the radio the other day, and I was reminded of a story my mother told me of the first time she heard "Smells Like Teen Spirit." She stopped what she was doing and listened cause it was so different from everything else on the radio at the time. While I don't think this song will cause a revolution (I would love to be proven wrong), it did made me stop everything and listen. That can't be natural.
The first (and only) time I heard this song on the radio I, too, stopped what I was doing, just to pay attention to it. It really captures that magical "Holy crap-something almost supernatural is going on here-is the universe seeing this?!' feeling of falling for someone. With all the cliché songwriting out there, this one is a total breath of fresh air. Also, my mom was born and raised in Brooklyn, so I very much appreciated the visual shout-out via Ms. Glaspy's sweatshirt. Miss my mom every day.
This song is really groovy and catchy. Hope it will be a hit.
Video shooting budget: 50dollars
Guitars budget: 50.000 dollars 😅
Yep, 💯! Wanted to slow down the playback to ID each guitar, but the song was too catchy to mess with. That blackface Princeton Reverb alone could have a $2K price tag,
exactly the way the budget should be split 🤣

Those guitars!!! The song is quite good too.
Totally did not expect to spot Bridget Kearney in this. Great tune, too.
They’ve known each other for many years. With Rachael Price of Lake Street Dive, they made music over a decade ago.
Caught Margaret Glaspy's concert last night in Cleveland at The Grog. I bought five tickets back when they first went on sale in the spring without knowing who I would take. What an absolutely amazing show! Even on her dark songs she glows with the joy and passion of her music. This song does such a nice job of capturing the brillience of her guitar, voice and lyrics. I feel like I'm in on a bit of a secret of her music. But for her sake sure would be nice if more people were in on it too.
Daaaaaaaammmm the ol Grog...went there a few times when I lived out there✌️
I searched for days to find the name of this song and finally found it.
And it has made me very happy.
Most excellent song.
Most excellent artist.
Heard this on the radio while driving. Great voice, great song! I said her name about 10 times to be able to remember it and look her up when I got home a couple days later. Glad I did!
I did quite literally, the exact same thing today in Denver. Cheers! 🤘
Same! Best car ride ever in a long time! lol
feel like back in '90s...nice ...
juliana hatfield vibes
Thank you, Marc Riley of BBC 6 music for playing this.
exactly where i'm just hearing it and searching on youtube so it's just out of sync with radio which sounds even better
This song sounds like a return to the guitar-driven sound of the "Emotions and Math" album from the more mainstream pop arrangements of "Devotion". I like it!
Sounds 90s and that's a good thing
Bridgetttttttt!
I knew I couldn’t be the only one with this reaction 😂🎉
Very cool tune…thanks Margaret…🎶
🌜🌞🌛
Every time I hear this song it makes me so emotionally broken that it can't be natural.
Yesss, everyone’s waiting for your more guitar music. You have such a special, unique combination b/w your voice and guitars. These truly make you standout 🤘🏼😌
Feels so good, to discover (way to late) that music like this till exists! And I even do like the advertisement for the guitar shop in the end :- )
I love everything about this song. So good.
Ooh hot 🔥
That spicy chord in the verse surprises me each time in the best possible way!
defo a 'Beatles chord'!
yeah that chord is pretty sick
sooo good. first heard this on a stressful commute on 6 music & the guitar and your voice just grabbed me instantly - it's like the music gods distilled every badass indie rock guitar riff & vocal melody from back in the day and this stunner came out! Love it
Margaret, I don't know if you read these comments, but these songs are some of your FINEST. They are like a warm hug, and the videos are amazing. Just sayin'........
Heard this on 6 Music the other morning... fantastic.. Thank you Lauren Laverne
I feel like I've been transported back to the 90s.
I just heard you do this on the radio, solo, on "All Of It" and I thought, "Is she playing a baritone? I wonder what kind of guitar she plays."
This video does absolutely nothing to answer my questions, but I love it.
I love this song, I love the lyrics, I love the guitar, I love Margaret Glaspy. ❤
I slowed this down to 0.25 to see the 3rd guitar. Way crazy cool!
Such is life, MG will always puts a smile on my face.
Holy Christ, is this great. Please let the rest of the new album be this full of riffs.
I'd love to see MG tour Europe. Come and save our eurovision-torn souls 🙏
Primal Margaret... this is what I like to hear. Her edge of breakup tone is just glorious. I like everything about it.
Heard on Sirius Spectrum channel several times while driving from FL to MA and back. Instantly loved everything about it. Can’t get enough of that guitar riff.
Come from the CZcams homepage. Vocal delivery reminds me of Alanis Morrisette. Digging this!
I think I've listened to this song at least 100 times. Yeah, I like it that much.
I do like this Margaret. I'll come back later and listen again.
So I just stumbled upon this one -- hits that super sweet spot.
One of my favorite voices, will look forward to the album!
Yes! Same here!
Awesome! This sounds like The Beths, so naturally I like.
Wow got in early. Great to see her go back to the guitar
god no kidding
summer banger. thx
This is some of the best stuff this big blue rock has spat out in a minute
Love this tyoon!! The opening riffs grabbed me from the get-go, the drumming spoke yo my percussion lovin’ heart , the lyric sentiment was evocative of Carpenters-Close to you!! Glaspy! I’m a fan!!
Perfect tune. The chords don't sound like they are forced or there 'just to be unique' - they sound very....natural. Also loving the Pavement era band sound that's polished just enough. Came through Julian Lage - subscribed and staying for Margaret Glaspy.
Best song of the decade. Love and love!
I claim this song for Jennifer.
Back to the trio - very very NICE!!! Looking forward to the record!!!
Yeah guitarrrrrs!!!! Guitars are the best
This is solid, Margaret.
Great song, great riffs! And a shout out to Bridget K on the bass. 🥰
I just discovered this song on Sirius Spectrum channel... what a GREAT track!🎵🥁🎶
What a great catchy song....!
I love this gal. She just brings it.
Clicked on this for the hell of it. Wow, this is EXACTLY what I needed!
I love this! This has put a smile on my face!!
I already love this Margaret!
Love it!
Like hearing 90s alt rock again!
Shame this hasn't taken off, because its wholesome.
Yeah! Heard this on a local station this morning and its now on my playlist! Dig the chord changes.
Lyrics are killer too!
Was it on 98.1, The River?
I know I've heard the sonic qualities of Margaret's voice before. It's like Billy Holiday with a Telecaster.
Alanis Morrisette?
great song ! i love you catchy guitar hooks and your song writing!!
one of the best songwriters out there
That's how it's done, folks.
queen 👑
Woo woo woo. You know it.
Love the new song! Just bought tix to your Chicago show in October 2023. : ).
Just caught this on the radio and it immediately grabbed my attention. Some shades of other artists that I like a lot and those bends she does reminds me of something but I can't pin it down. A little Melissa Ferrick?
Great track, love her voice !!!
Go Margaret! Glad to hear you rock again after that slick, syrupy follow up to Emos & Math
lets goooo!
she is a Master!
ORDERED MY VINYL!!!
Perfect and beautiful pop song. I hope this puts you among the stars ❤
The black strat sounds the best for me
Best guitar tone ever!
It might sound reductive to call her the modern Lady Malkmus, but I swear it’s a compliment!
Great song.
Ohhhhh we are here for it!
Loving this! ❤
STUNNING
This vibes so hard. I love it.
Spectacular!
love the glowing effervesence of joy all over your face 😊
Great song, great lyrics. Felt a little underproduced at first, but the more I listen the more I like it!
Love it !
Love it, very original!
WHAT kind of question is that? Just because light shines from my eyes, a cool teal actually, and a cloud of golden light forms around me when I play my Eelectrick Skitar, doesn't mean I'm an "alien" - so relax, learn, know, and find out - it is all natural.
I felt like I was watching MTV's alternative nation in my college dorm, again.
It's nice to hear real drums in a song for a change rather than triggered samples. I love the melody too; it reminds me of the mid-90s.
This is such an amazing track, so looking forward to this record!
So good !!!
Absolutely loving this song right now!
This rock song is a pearl,,🎉
Epic song to kick off the new album. I'm sold. 😎😎
팬이에요 💜
Sounds great!!!👍🎵🍉🎉🌞🌳💖😄
Badass riff 😮
Fantastic song.
LOVEEEEEE
Such a perfect video! SUCH a perfect song!
