LYRICS:
High above, you’ll find me here
Circling far to not be near
It feels like I can only glide so long
Before the will to stay my dive is gone
If I’m on the way down
If you love me at all
Leave me right where I fall
I’m a lone, lonely bird
A king in the desert, a spy in the herd
Looking down there’s no use looking back
The day I drop I’ll go without a word
If I’m on the way down
If you love me at all
Leave me right where I fall

What a warm yet haunting chord progression in the chorus
Indeed. I can't listen/watch it just once. I want to hear that chorus again. And the rest.
I love how this song whispers and shouts at the same time 🤍
That's the perfect way to sum it up!
I love how simple the verse is, just so that the chorus can catch you off guard with its downward-pulling harmonical complexity.
Of course he can sing beautifully too
Of course. And smash acting.
I can feel the snarky vibe but like more deep and personal ,you know ?
If 2020 - 2021 were a song. Haunting and unforgettable.
Beautiful. Here's the link between the spiritual side of Snarky Puppy and the haunting productions of Becca Stevens and Crosby. Love it.
Well said!
It's amazing to see this side of you as an artist and a person. This is deep and vulnerable music.
100% agreed!
after seeing him smile with evident joy and pleasure while playing the most beautifunk music i have ever heard... this hits hard
Never cease to amaze me
I cannot stop listening to the vocal harmony at the end of the chorus. It just hits different.
Daaaamn, not content with killing being a bandleader this total force of nature is now gunning for pop singer songwriters as well. I just know this is my favourite album ever and it's not even released yet.
This is the best thing to happen to the world in... a long time. As long as michael is making music, the world is a good place to be
what an amazing chord progression in the b section
I'm so happy for the positivity in this comment section. Back in the days when I mostly listened to metal etc. every time an artist tried out something new or dared to push the boundaries of the genre they mostly got huge negative backlash and were made fun of.
Here its just so open and unbiased. People listen. And appreciate the courage it takes to come up with something new or unexpected.
Very well done Michael. I'm excited for more!
This is so relatable. The chord progression in the chorus gives me slight Louis Cole vibes but in a uniquely serious and heart wrenching tone. I can’t wait for this album to drop.
This is what happens when you don't let ego dictate your artistic expression. This is pure emotion and talent. The chord progression is amazing ❤️
Can’t wait for the full album
This one has some Steven Wilson vibes! Really nice!
Just incredible. Can't wait for that album!
I don't really have words to express how floored I was hearing this track. There are only 12 notes on the western musical scale, and (mostly) one instrument in this song, yet it sounds like NOTHING I've ever heard before. I sat in stunned silence for several minutes just processing it. Then I listened to it again and it hit me the same way. The harmony vocals are otherworldly. I've really never heard anything like them. Alice in Chains had some pretty creative harmonies -- like nothing I had ever heard before their time -- but this is another level.
Vid's pretty cool too. There's a lot to process, but the element that held my attention the most was the ocean thru the window. If you didn't notice it, watch it again and see if it doesn't lend a major sense of DREAD to the scene. That water reminds me of the Japan 3/11 tsunami -- a ravenous monster preparing to consume.
Takes a real snarky puppy to write something this fresh!!
exactly my thoughts when I was listening at 2am and couldn't articulate this
Take the oportunity and listen to mr David Crosby's latest albums. I think you will enjoy it a lot because it has this strange and comfortable vibe. I love it.
Wow, to coin a Laura Mvula quote "Tune Michael!"
1. This has to be one of the most deeply intimate songs I've ever seen / heard. It's beautiful and uncomfortable and exquisite and poignant
2. 1:01 these chord changes really make the song
3. Also 1:01 best-sounding Wurlitzer I've ever heard
I repeated this like 5 times before moving on with the song... so good man
except 3. ... I don't think a piano is a better sounding Wurlitzer :-)
The sound is an upright piano
Gulp. I'm going to go curl up in a corner and cry now. That might be the most beautifully depressing thing I've ever heard. I came here after only recently discovering and devouring most of Snarky Puppy's discography. I had no idea what to expect, but it wasn't this. Michael is clearly an incredibly complex individual, and he clearly has as many bright moments as dark, but the nihilism/fatalism in this song is disturbing. Beautify, haunting, exquisite, but worrisome as well. I'd love a worldview conversation with Michael.
He commented on his page that he’s doing ok. Bc you’re not the only person who was concerned after hearing this. He said he doesn’t tell of his struggles with depression and anxiety often but he chose to here.
I'm beginning to believe that it's impossible to separate today's artistic output from the context of the pandemic. It really challenges us and goes through everyone
Beautifully simple piano line for the verse - check.
Immensely deep and interesting chord progression for the chorus - check.
Melancholic, haunting, powerful but intimate melodic line across the top - check.
Crazily precise, intracetely woven arrangement and sublime bass to back it up - check.
Vocal harmonies so good they can make an adult weep - check.
And that's just the music! So many more layers.... lyrics, production, acting, video, concept...
I'm starting to think the lad knows what he's doing.
That E flat in the low tones is magic.
Don't know about other people but for me it is such a rare thing become to hear some new music and to get me all in it completely. This tune is one of those moments. Thx
Those harmonics... Lovely.
My head is still processing what I've just seen and heard, but my soul already agrees with it.
Buenísima!! When Michael League meets Steven Wilson... Two men made by themselves.
Well said, the same deep articulation of emotions, not many people are listening to both I guess.
@@Connor_McLeod_1 You'd be wrong. Prog fans love Snarky Puppy.
@@phuongdh Haha 😂, I'm ok with it, bc I"m one of them. 😁 Greetings from bonnie Scotland 🏴 where ever you are, mate. Take care.
Wow! Michael League never fails to surprise me in the most pleasant ways.
i like that this isnt what i expected. fresh
This is peak artistic expression, holy goodness.
Never heard something deeper, cooler, warmer than this...and i m listening since 1967...
Michael League - you are an exciting creator ... It's running cold down my back ...
Every time I listen to this song, I feel like I need/want more. From the chord progression, the vocal lyrics & harmonies and the amazing production, I just can't get enough. I know it's just wishful thinking, but I'd so love to have an extended version of this with a great keyboard solo (piano or synth) or possibly even a sitar that further explores the chord space. Love...love...love this. Thank you Michael!
wow! nice man, didn´t expect this at all :) Michael League is just one of those amazing musicians that don´t think in genres or boxes or whatever AT ALL. Just writing music that´s great, no matter what category it might fall into or not. We need more musicians like this!
Man these vocal harmonies are giving me goosebumps. Michael League never ceases to amaze me! Can't wait for the full release.
I get some serious Steven Wilson vibes listening to this but then again: It is definitely a Michael League song unmistakably. It’s amazing to hear how you write new, fresh and different music every time but stay true to your own style at the same time. Can’t wait to hear more!!
Unbelievable. I can't say which is more powerful, the song or the video. The performance... I really don't know. Goosebumps.
But when the sea turns upside down... 👌🏻
Oh man, when that chorus kicks in and builds.. goosebumps up my arms and neck. Beautiful, just beautiful.
That chorus guys, I can't stop listening to it. Just amazing.
Just purchased on Amazon AMAZING !!! Thank you!
Wow, this is absolutely terrific! Your music has had a tremendous impact on me and I'm excited to see some solo stuff from you. Snarky puppy has provided such a great deal of joy in my life, a joy I hadn't felt since I lost touch with playing music myself.
I never heard a song that finishes so fast. Need more!!!!!
It is not easy to find music unexpected, trespassing boundaries, without debts nor taxes, stepping on freedom realms and honest work and vibes.
Michael League, after being the Bitches Brewer of XXIst century, now walking steps ahead. If this next album is that good... Bravo, we can wait with true illusion.
Awesome.
Snarky Puppy meets Steven Wilson? I like it. Can't wait for the album 🙌
this song gets better every time I hear it
This song feels like getting wrapped in a weighted blanket in the middle of a panic attack.
funny, for me it sounds like a panic attack
It doesss
man Michael League is such a good and versatile artist, this is amazing
The more I listen to this song, the more intense it gets!
This is beautiful. Didn't know he had it in him to play a straight song without a solo blowing your mind, at the same time, this song blew my mind!
You can almost breathe the air of the room in which this was compose. I have been feeling panic attacks lately Michael. Thanks for this song.
...And I will always love you and Snarky Puppy!
I look forward to listen (and learn by heart😉) your next album!
Wow!!
This makes me want to try harder. Or quit. Maybe both. I like it.
Stunning
Whilst it's always great to hear your music, that video.......... Beautiful, challenging captivating.
Such gripping tonal textures. Artful.
i listened to this song 30 times today. listening again now. unreal tune.
Wow!!! So beautiful, It's like a wonderful collision of Michael League, Clannad and Air. It got me very deep down in my soul.
For a moment I thought of Björk's harmonic tenacity back in the day, but I think Michael is undergoing a gradual musical implosion of his own. He's going to be a very influential and much in demand artist and producer worldwide. Guess we'll be hearing tons of mind-blowing music for film, orchestra, Snarky and several productions for other artists.
Michael, I admire you and you are an incredible artist. For ten full years I've been listening to your music and you have always been an inspiration. Thank you so much!
Fourth time around.
Today I've managed to stop the loop after 5 repetitions.
Each time it gets better. Thanks Michael
WOW! I need more time to process what I've just watched. What an incredible artist this man is! Good Lord! 😍
WOW....nothing else needs to be said!
Seductive, terrifying, and beautiful. Kidnaps me with each listen, and I keep coming back.
His surname is appropriate cos he really is on a league of his own 🔥🔥🔥
music video is such an amazing representation of how the process feels sometimes
Those vocals... who the hell knew Michael League could sing??
He has very secretly shown his skills in the past but this is another level...Loving it already
Amazing!
This is movie soundtrack stuff. Incredible.
coolfully unexpected! I sense some Steven Wilson vibes from this
Immaculate.
This is outstanding!
textures, tension, sound selection, lyrics, release, visuals, emotions. EVERYTHING ON POINT!!! can't wait for the album
This man never ceases to impress me, wish I could see another show of him and the gang.
The video clip idea, concept, the harmony and that fucking chord progression hit me hard.
Didn’t know Michael could sing, can’t wait for the album!
awesome harmony and unexpected/twisted sequence of simple yet effective chords with bass notes. it blew my mind trying to figure out the keys on my synth.
Absolute genius. So many phat colors!
This is my third round around here.
Thanks Mr. League
It is rare that I find a piece of music that resonates with me like this. I must have listened to this 100 times now. Thank you Michael.
Deep and creative.
Thank ya 4 this song...
Genius.
Art.
AMAZING!!!!!
Wow!!!!!!!!!
Haunting
So deep, remains that it's wise as a solution.

Such a beautiful and haunting song! Suddenly I want you to collab with Steven Wilson!!
Beautiful...
