After checking out all the supposed "karaoke" versions, this is the one you'll stick with to practice. Most of the others are just Fastball singing on a video with lyrics on the screen, others posted here are just words an instrumental with words but no highlighting to show the pauses or cues to trigger the vocals after an instrumental break. I prefer this kind of video for karaoke, as it's what you get in the bar on karaoke night. I've never heard anyone sing this at any karaoke, so I'm going to do it next Friday!
A very beautiful song, ive mistakenly thought it was an iconic Sir Paul Maccas voice and composition, anyway kudos and thanks Fastball, for chronicling a pure love that ends in a bang and whimper.❤
Holy f/ck! It wasn’t until less than a month ago that I learned what this song was actually about. It’s something along the lines of an older couple (the wife with dementia. The husband her caretaker) went out for a “nothing out of the ordinary” drive and disappeared somewhere along the way. Sometime later the vehicle was found and both occupants were dead. The husband had suffered a fatal heart attack and had veered off the road. The wife had been injured but, having dementia, didn’t know what to do and eventually succumbed to the elements. I’m hoping that it’s just an urban legend. Otherwise it’d be so 😢sad and tragic. I want it to just be an urban legend.
Why don’t you just look it up instead of wondering? Here, I did it for you. “The song was written by the band's lead vocalist, Tony Scalzo… Scalzo was inspired to write the song after reading about the disappearance of an elderly couple who were found dead in their car many miles away from their intended destination.”

Isnt Jesus "The Way?" Hmmmmm, I think this song is a great Allusion to the bible. Some people call the bible a road map. I like the Religious undertones to these lyrics. This song i think is about A Couple So Deeply in love that they didnt want no responsibilty or even social norms to break them apart. So considering the difficulty they uped thier courage and took a leap of faith and followed thier dream into their eternal state of bliss. They found thier heaven. But it didnt come without leaving scars in everyone else.
Fucking Brilliant Man, The Whole Song Just Overflows With Brilliance. Thanks. I really enjoy having the honor to sing such a great hit. Speaking about hits. Cheers fastball! I love the irony in this blast of a hit. And i find the quality of this karaoke version to be excellent!
This song is about an elderly couple from texas who had mental deterioration and Alzheimer's. They wanted to take a day trip to a festival fifteen miles from their home, but instead ended up traveling to Arkansas and driving off a cliff. Their names were Lela and Raymond Howard, it's actually quite an intriguing, yet tragic story.
It is loaded with spiritual references, starting with "an exit to eternal summer..." lets you know something is up. Also, where are the roads paved in gold, according to popular religious colloquialism? The same place where you never get cold, never get hungry or old and gray-the afterlife, of course.
@@mikebutlermedia4211 The band didn't know that the couple died when they wrote it, is the scary part. They didn't even *assume* that they did, they weren't alluding to Heaven/the afterlife with those lines, they were just romanticizing the idea (that they had in their heads until they found out about the deaths *after* the song released) of the mystery behind the couple's disappearance. They imagined that they just left their old lives behind and went to live out their twilight years somewhere beautiful.

L
this one has backing vocals in there and the guitar is too loud, you must not have looked that hard if this was the best.
I like this one too, this style of karaoke songs where its not just the band with the vocals turned down.
7 years late lmao, but I’d be interested to hear how it went down singing this at a karaoke night? Considering it myself😅
Good background music, but the key is too high.
The original song is lower.

I always loved the song, but then when I did learn the inspiration for the song....yes, so sad and tragic.

The timing is good, but the key is too high.
I prefer the original key.
It was great until that guitar riff drowned out the music and karaoke.

@@Buggabbee Yes, excellent summary. Their family considers the song a memorial to them, even though it is extensively fictionalized.
