    I honestly think this is one of the best songs ever written. It has everything. Been listening to it since it first came out and still makes me cry with love and wonderment.

    A relentlessly honest song from a band with plenty of it.
    "Old friends, old lovers, dogs and brothers
    There's only so much letting go you can ask someone to do"

    As infinitely lovely as Adrianne's voice is, it adds a whole new depth to Big Thief's sound to hear Buck's.

      If you haven't, I cannot recommend their duo album a-sides/b-sides highly enough. From a year or two pre-Big Thief, two guitars and vocal harmonies, some of both of their songwriting. Its absolutely divine. Buck's solo stuff too!

    Revisiting this video in light of the new album’s release. The thing that strikes me about Big Thief is how much they enjoy each other while playing. That energy is evident in all their music. They are family.

    Years, days, makes no difference to me babe
    You look exactly the same to me
    Ain't no time, crossing your legs inside the diner
    Raising your coffee to your lips, the steam
    You saw the masterpiece, she looks a lot like you
    Wrapping her left arm around your right
    Ready to walk you through the night
    You whisper to a restless ear, "can you get me out of here?
    This place smells like piss and beer, can you get me out?"
    You were asking me, how to get you free
    I only know the recipe to roam
    You saw the masterpiece, she looks a lot like you
    Wrapping her left arm around your right
    Ready to walk you through the night
    Old stars
    Filling up my throat
    You gave em to me when I was born
    Now they're coming out
    Laying there on the hospital bed your eyes were narrow, blue and red
    You took a draw of breath and said to me
    You saw the masterpiece, she looks a lot like me
    Wrapping my left arm round your right
    Ready to walk you through the night
    Old friends, old mothers, dogs and brothers
    There's only so much letting go you can ask someone to do
    So I keep you by my side, I will not give you to the tide
    I'll even walk you in my stride, Marie
    Cause I saw the masterpiece, she looks a lot like you
    Wrapping your left arm round my right
    Ready to walk me through the night

    I absolutely love this track. They have more talent than almost any band out there and I'm happy to have a rock band back in the rotation. For a long time I've been finding the best rock under the Folk category (Felice Brothers) it is nice to hear legit rocknroll I actually like again.

    • @mikescheibinger5191
      @mikescheibinger5191 Год назад

      This band are absolute masters of controlled feedback. The first time I ever saw them (they were a support act; I had never even heard of them) was at the Pabst in Milwaukee, which is a great rock stage. They were going to town on it. Afterward, they were at the merch table and I said, wow you guys really have the feedback under control. Buck said yea, not every stage gives it up like that, but this one is great. Sure was. They were touring Masterpiece. They knocked me out so hard that I have a hard time remembering who the headliner was sometimes-it was m. ward.

    • @kevincollins2761
      @kevincollins2761 Год назад

      I feel this so much. It seems like an easy one to figure out but it’s so quirky and unique to Buck himself. It just proves that he’s truly a great guitarist; he has a sound that when you hear him play you go “oh yeah that’s Buck”.

      @siobhanrose1680 2 года назад

      I agree, I came to the comments to see if anyone else thought the sound guy effed up and played the boys backing her vocals up (very badly) too loud. It just sounded very out of key, and hurt my ears, I don’t think they could hear themselves. Is all. Because they are fantastic live, and this song is BOMB.
