    Brian Fallon is ungodly talented. to take an under-appreciated song by the greatest troubadour/songwriter since...ever? and make it both his own and true to the original is something that not many - if any - people could do. if i heard this song on a Gaslight Anthem album, i'd think it was theirs. this is just an incredible version of an incredible song. There is no one on Brian's level in rock music today.

      I always felt like Hendrix cover of Watchtower was good but not as incredible as people made it out to be (beyond his playing.) I like the ghostly feel of the original more.

    Sixteen years,
    Sixteen banners united over the field
    Where the good shepherd grieves.
    Desperate men, desperate women divided,
    Spreading their wings 'neath the falling leaves.
    Fortune calls.
    I stepped forth from the shadows, to the marketplace,
    Merchants and thieves, hungry for power, my last deal gone down.
    She's smelling sweet like the meadows where she was born,
    On midsummer's eve, near the tower.
    The cold-blooded moon.
    The captain waits above the celebration
    Sending his thoughts to a beloved maid
    Whose ebony face is beyond communication.
    The captain is down but still believing that his love will be repaid.
    They shaved her head.
    She was torn between Jupiter and Apollo.
    A messenger arrived with a black nightingale.
    I seen her on the stairs and I couldn't help but follow,
    Follow her down past the fountain where they lifted her veil.
    I stumbled to my feet.
    I rode past destruction in the ditches
    With the stitches still mending 'neath a heart-shaped tattoo.
    Renegade priests and treacherous young witches
    Were handing out the flowers that I'd given to you.
    The palace of mirrors
    Where dog soldiers are reflected,
    The endless road and the wailing of chimes,
    The empty rooms where her memory is protected,
    Where the angels' voices whisper to the souls of previous times.
    She wakes him up
    Forty-eight hours later, the sun is breaking
    Near broken chains, mountain laurel and rolling rocks.
    She's begging to know what measures he now will be taking.
    He's pulling her down and she's clutching on to his long golden locks.
    Gentlemen, he said,
    I don't need your organization, I've shined your shoes,
    I've moved your mountains and marked your cards
    But Eden is burning, either brace yourself for elimination
    Or else your hearts must have the courage for the changing of the guards.
    Peace will come
    With tranquility and splendor on the wheels of fire
    But will bring us no reward when her false idols fall
    And cruel death surrenders with its pale ghost retreating
    Between the King and the Queen of Swords.

    Actually, that song was essentially a tribute to "Way over yonder in the minor key" by Billy Bragg, which has unused lyrics by Woodie Guthrie (i think). Brian Fallon never ceases to amaze me with these sorts of references. Search for the song, you'll hear the similarities. Cheers!
