Four years ago Sneaky Pete brought me here, I'm back for more and I realized this song sounds eerily similar to "The Guns of Brixton" by The Clash. Lovin it !!
I love this. (Exclamation mark omitted for emphasis.) This is the outro to the documentary ‘The Dawn Wall’, which mesmerised me on what was meant to be a square-eyed idle night; so I had to look up the song. And it and the video have mesmerised me anew. Hats off to this wonderful thing.
I think it's a fucking brilliant take on what our soul does when we die - the guy dancing is the spirit that came out of the body that just died, hence the title "I have been to the mountain" and it looks like it's going to be a lot of fun. I guess some people just have no appreciation for avant garde videos. It was obviously very low budget but lots of fun...
Altough I like your interpretation, it seems a lot less gritty, I personally think that the video depicts the guy desperately trying to get back to the living, get attention/ interaction. He has to come to term with the fact that hes dead, explaining his depressed look at the end. He is simply ripped out of live no chance to come back again, hes OUT. To me in the end it kinda shows the finality of death, in light of the lyrics being about Eric Garner who was suffocated by a policemen you can also see it as a depiction of how unjust this is, for him to be just ripped out of life like that. Again im not saying that your interpretation is right, I just wanted to write this down since it made sense to me.
It’s so funny because I feel what you’re saying, but when I first heard it, I thought to myself, “This is a person who is familiar with Salsoul label’s catalogue,” which is very different point of reference.
The dislike ratio (for those who wanted to know) is probably because the song is about the death of Eric Garner caused by a NYPD officer putting him in a chokehold while arresting him. ''Round 'em out, make an echo Destroy the destroyer And do it fast That man lived in this town Til that pig took him down And have you heard the sound Of a man stop breathing, pleading?''
Eric Garner was a thug. He resisted arrest. He was choked out for something like 20 seconds. Ive endured choke holds lasting for 30 seconds plus. Anyway, the chokehold did not kill him. The officer did his job, and well at that. www.newsmax.com/newsfront/eric-garner-chokehold-grand-jury-police/2014/12/04/id/611058/
Richard Sneed he was put in a chokehold for selling cigarettes and died as a result of his injuries after telling the office he couldn’t breathe. If you think that’s an acceptable way for law enforcement to act then you’re part of the problem.
The layered production of this reminds me of Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" style of music production. Listen to Awaiting On You All by George Harrison, pretty similar. Good music sounds as if it could have been made 30 years ago or yesterday. This is that kind of song not to mention its hella catchy.

the bass, the chorus the vocals - love it all.
discovered this artist a year ago, listening every day
SINGING SAW as a whole is wonderful. One of the many MORBY CLASSICS. And "Mountain"' is of course a fantastic song.
The bass tone: *chefs kiss*
The guitar solo: the cherriest of cherries on top
Well, you can thank the Clash's bassist for the bass melody!
2:20 that guitar part give me goosebumps
Yeah it gave goosebumps

Anyone got the instrumental or extended version that was used in the documentary episode 2??
Same here
Me too Great Song!!!!

Yay - "The Dawn Wall" was great ! I was so overjoyed and exhilarated when Kevin overcame pitch 15 !
I feel that 💯 The Dawn Wall has gotta be one of my favorite documentaries
what a dancer that guy!
Calling out
Demanding answers
Pleading skies
Cry for hours
Dropping peace bombs
Collecting prayers
A sky that mirrors
A sky that stares as I sing
I have been to the mountain
And I have walked on his shore
I have seen but I can't see him no more
Round 'em out, make an echo
Destroy the destroyer
And do it fast
That man lived in this town
Til that pig took him down
And have you heard the sound
Of a man stop breathing, pleading?
I have been to the valley
And I have sung all her songs
Watch me sing
Watch me sing along
And I say
This is amazing! The times when Kevin Morby was a lesser known gem are passe. I guess this was inevitable.

Wow, what an incredible bass sound. Great overall production as well.
The bass is fantastic! Makes the song, in my opinion.
kevin said himself that he really likes the bass in this song :D
guns of Brixton bass line
It's something between Guns of Brixton and Slow Cheetah by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Anne Marie Nester it’s close but not quite the same. And I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s intentional
Still one of the best songs ever, the music video scares me but Nathan Mitchell is such a beautiful dancer
Nathan mitchell
What scares you about it?
Tnx for the name of the artist
Love this video... the living look bored and stale, but the departed soul is dancing and having fun, liberated.
The Bass!
The song!
I love how Kevin pops up in different bits of the video. Such a great song and aye the dancer is great.
I know it's so cool😊
It flows.. its perfekt. I hear it 100× again an again..
This is my favourite song right now.
Four years ago Sneaky Pete brought me here, I'm back for more and I realized this song sounds eerily similar to
"The Guns of Brixton" by The Clash.
Lovin it !!
We are dancing around the room with this one....It's on repeat.
Those moves tho...I love the edge of abandon in them. Liberation in death and all that fun stuff
BRUTAL
INCONMENSURABLE
GLORIOSO
BENDITO
THANK YOU

Young people, the future....is ours!

that dancing thru the guitar solo is top notch and hilarious

Thanks for your amazing talent Kevin Morby.
How about touring in France?
I think the video is great. The voice is cool. The beat is absolutely to groove .. like the music of easy going Kevin Morby! also Har.Riv. very nice!
So inspiring!

Great song! The bass line reminds me of the one from the chorus of Slow Cheetah by RHP.

Stephen Gow who are they? I’d love to find more music like this
