I found this record at my local library while I lived in Burlington ON as a teenager. Only picked it up because of the beautiful cover art, I went in totally deaf. This record takes me back to long bike rides through the mansion lined neighbourhoods that swallowed my parents modest bungalow. Being isolated and alone and riding my bike into Bronte instead of being in class. Getting caught in June thunderstorms and hiding out under gazebos. It brings back a lonely time when I was hungry for inspiration. The simplicity of this music taught me a lot.
My town in northern Virginia is being swallowed by mcmansions. They're tearing down old small houses, old school 1960s things, not the nicest to look at, but on big lots. Huge yards. Replacing them with mcmansions 20 feet from each other. Just massive, and cutting down all the trees. I feel your pain. They put like 6-8 mansions on what was ONE lot with just a little bungalow.
@@kysuesunshine298 Glad you enjoyed peering into a window of time in my life. It feels surreal to share it as a story from my past, it feels like just yesterday. I'm surprised to see so many others enjoyed it too! I just love music, plain and simple.
@Eraudica Audio - Discussion Bronte Village actually. My dad used to have a Massage Therapy clinic there and I think that's why I'd always venture back.
When my dad first passed in July of 2012, this album helped me deal with the pain and loss in a calming beautiful way, my kitty best friend would sit and listen too, and now he’s gone so in a way listening to this album is like audio memorials.
I listened to this album many times in my mid 20s working a delivery job I hated driving long hours. It was a dark and lonely time in my life, this incredible album was a small light in that darkness I was living. Revisiting this many years later, I can’t believe how good each individual song is.
Now this one just came out of randomly when my life is messy and also beautiful. Days will pass by. Hope whoever is in pain or trouble gets better. 2:54 PM, 20 October, Sunday, 2024. From Bangladesh 🇧🇩
I can't remember exactly when i found this album.. it's been with me through many versions of myself and It always takes me to the same place. I used to wander around the woods by the river near where i grew up listening to this. I learned to play every song on it. The best part of it all is that everyone i showed this to didnt like it much (weirdos) so it was always my own little world.
I'm currently working from home because of COVID - this music is helping me get through this. Just stumbled upon this band by accident and I'm beyond happy with this.
Also working from home, and this started autoplaying after the livestream of Sufjan Stevens's newest album. Haven't listened to this album in awhile, and I really appreciate it as a calming presence in my life right now.
What a story. I myself been listening to Iron and Wine for years... and now when I'm stuck at home, and it is difficult for me to adjust to learning like this... I know where to go and find peace so needed.
sip of wine, some cheese, books, books and books underneath my christmas lights, the window opened and the gentle breeze coming in to kiss the edge of the pages, and this music. Life is still and perfect.
This is the last new album i showed my godmother and i come back to this when im doing really bad. Im not sure what the connection is but i feel the closest i ever feel to her when i listen. It takes me back to that truck, that farm, that seat. I dont think i could tell you a damn thing about the interior of that truck but i remember our conversation, i remember her listening earnestly, i remember her telling me she liked it, and feeling like for the first time as a young adult i was going to be seen by someone who always saw me
What A Wonderful And Heartfelt Short Timeline Into Your Love For Your Godmother & Life's Journey💔💔💔I Lost My Mother Beginning Of April 2022 I'm Still In Shock💔💔💔Thank You
I've literally listened to thousands of albums by countless artists in my life. I never say such things lightly, but this is one of the best albums ever.
Naked as We Came has always just been the warmest feeling song I've ever heard. It sounds like dust dancing in the sunlight, and I'm here for it in a big way.
I played side one constantly during the time 75% of my family died within 39 days of each other, it comforted where nothing else could, it resonated in my heart and mind, it saved my life. Our Endless Numbered Days indeed.
"Will you say to me, when I'm gone, 'Your face is faded, but lingers on. Cuz light strikes a deal with each coming night.'" I think this is one of the most beautiful lyrics that has ever been written. It's such a touching idea - someone who is gone remaining a presence in your life, and the idea of daylight giving way to night when the world seems to conspire to let you see your lost loved again in your dreams.
i remember listen to this guy about 10 years ago i was 15 and discovering the great music of my generation i am now 25 i like going back to this music bring me back memories of how i felt in my teen years and of places i would travel to listen to him
I’d never heard of Sam until he sat down on the floor next to me last night at the Atlanta airport, as we waited for our flight to RDU. I’m glad he sat there, for he makes beautiful music.
Same. Hard to believe it's been twenty years. The weird thing is, it brought back memories even when it first came out. Like it had somehow been a part of my childhood.
First ever,although stage fright, played open mic night to Naked as we Came. Had a talented lady friend sing since I can only do that by my lonesome. One of my favorite albums. ❤
this is exactly what I've experienced. The best part of it: feeling of the connection with other people that somehow stumbled upen these beautifukl melodies, and felt the happiness and beauty in this peace of music. I luv ya ppl!
This album crossed my path so many times and each time I chose to let it pass. Either I never actually took the time to listen or I've changed, because this is beautiful.
Sometime ago I associated this song with a girl, this girl wasn't my girlfriend. I asked her or told her she was special, but she rejected me. After that some time after, she was crying for another boy. This song and 'Bird Steling Bread' were my favorite at that time.
It hasn’t been that long lol. I guess I am, gratefully, getting old. This was my favorite band in high school, & I had the poster that came with the The Shepherd’s Dog pinned to my door. Can’t see the album cover without being transported back to my old room lol.
And then you have hipsters saying music these days suck. They don't search hard enough really. This entire album is gold and many other artists are also brilliant.
listening to this rn at 33 remembering sitting in a parking lot with my highschool ex smoking a bowl and me singing all the songs to her and trying to not cry (in the good way). glad my memory randomly pulled this up tonight.
each coming night - lyrics Will you say when I'm gone away "My lover came to me and we'd lay In rooms unfamiliar but until now" Will you say to them when I'm gone "I loved your son for his sturdy arms We both learned to cradle then live without" Will you say when I'm gone away 'Your father's body was judgment day We both dove and rose to the riverside" Will you say to me when I'm gone "Your face has faded but lingers on Because light strikes a deal with each coming night"
Nossa, muito feliz por encontrar esse disco! Muito obrigada por tê-lo publicado! Parabéns pelo trabalho! Wow, I'm very happy to find this album! Thanks a lot for this! Congratulations!
This hits different when I'm looking to type comment cliches. Also listened to this when family died. God I hope I get some sweet like click validation dopamine. Long live Iron and Wine.
I forgot how much this music speaks to my inner quiet sad heart. It heals so much. If this man were ever to have read this, I would want him to know he has helped me. Not just right now but half a decade ago aswell. Depression doesn't feel like shit to me right now and I'm so happy.
This comment makes me tear up a lil’. I hope two months down the line and you’re feeling a bit brighter. I feel ya! ❤️ this record brings me back to being easy on my self.
@@BenSchillaci I think that has been one of the most important lessons I have recently learned. You have to treat yourself with respect. Take captive every insult I prepare for myself and discard it. I think I am in a brighter place lately. Thank you for the thought!
@@jzmott82 I'm just happy to hear that you've let music have that effect on you. That's what music does, it gives you perspective and helps you go into unhealed or blocked memories or feelings and connect. There's nothing in life that can compare to it, it's programmed deep in the human experience. On the topic of standing in one's own way, I've been there and it sounds like you're figuring it out. Use that energy to build yourself up not tear yourself down- I'm always learning and relearning that :)
This + the 4K Tropical Rain & Relaxing Nature Sounds from TheSilentWatcher is just cosy heaven. They were standing next to each other in my recommendeds and they suit each other perfectly as if it were faith :D Seriously, try it! :D I put the tropical rain slightly louder than this album but you can alter it any way you like :)
On Your Wings God, there is gold hidden deep in the ground God, there's a hangman that wants to come around How we rise when we're born Like the ravens in the corn On their wings, on our knees Crawling careless from the sea God give us love in the time that we have God, there guns growing out of our bones God, every road takes us farther from home All these men that you made How we wither in the shade Of your trees, on your wings We are carried to the sea God give us love in the time that we have
Naked As We Came She says, "Wake up, it's no use pretending" I'll keep stealing, breathing her Birds are leaving over autumn's ending One of us will die inside these arms Eyes wide open, naked as we came One will spread our ashes around the yard She says, "If I leave before you, darling Don't you waste me in the ground" I lay smiling like our sleeping children One of us will die inside these arms Eyes wide open, naked as we came One will spread our ashes around the yard
Cinder and Smoke Give me your hand The dog in the garden row is covered in mud And dragging your mother's clothes Cinder and smoke The snake in the basement Found the juniper shade The farmhouse is burning down Give me your hand And take what you will tonight, I'll give it as fast And high as the flame will rise Cinder and smoke Some whispers around the trees The juniper bends As if you were listening Give me your hand Your mother is drunk as all the firemen shake A photo from father's arms Cinder and smoke You'll ask me to pray for rain With ash in your mouth You'll ask it to burn again
Sunset Soon Forgotten Be this sunset soon forgotten Your brothers left here shaved and crazy We've learned to hide our bottles in the well And what's worth keeping, sun still sinking Down and down Once again Down and down Gone again Be this sunset one for keeping This June bug street sings low and lovely Those band-aid children Chased your dog away She runs, returning, sun still sinking Down and down Once again Down and down Gone again
Teeth in the Grass And when you give me your clothes And when we're lovers at last Fresh air, perfume in your nose There will be teeth in the grass And when you give me your house When we're all brothers at last There will be food in our mouths There will be teeth in the grass And when there's nothing to want When we're all brilliant and fast When all tomorrows are gone There will be teeth in the grass
Let me be the old who remembers exactly when this came out. Now let me be the thankful one seeing all these other people enjoying and spreading such beauty.
This is like walking with the sun on my face on a breezy Day of Spring, barefoot in a field of knee high wildflowers or daisies! Such a warm embrace! This is what I imagine...
Free Until They Cut Me Down ***** When the men take me to the devil tree I will be free and shining like before Papa don't tell me what I should've done She’s the one She's the one who begged me "Take me, take me home" When the wind wraps me like the reaper's hand I will swing free until they cut me down Papa don't tell me what I could've done She’s the one She's the one who begged me "Take me, take me home" When the sea takes me like my mother's arms I will breathe free as any word of God Papa don't tell me what you would've done She’s the one She's the one who begged me "Take me, take me home" ***** So good. Modern folk at its best.
It took me five/six years to find artists that have given me the same feeling that King of Convenience gave me when I discovered them. Thank you world....
Popcorn Sutton Same. I also played a lot of M Ward in high-school. Frick...wonderful time of being a weirdo and not blasting whatever was on Much Music in my ear holes.
His name is Sam Beam. It sounds like that because he recorded all of these albums by himself Alone Probably in few basements Dubbed over and over Same man Sam Beam 😊💓😎
Tomorrow I am going to a cardiologist to find out if I have heart disease and what that means. This random 'find' has filled me with sweet joy and sadness. Sorry - it wasn't random - beautiful music.

Мне нравится выражение "разные версии меня"
А мне почему-то в разных версиях себя разная музыка нужна. Не одна и та же
I'm currently working from home because of COVID - this music is helping me get through this. Just stumbled upon this band by accident and I'm beyond happy with this.
Also working from home, and this started autoplaying after the livestream of Sufjan Stevens's newest album. Haven't listened to this album in awhile, and I really appreciate it as a calming presence in my life right now.
I just woke up and had a song off of this album in my head - happy to rediscover this after many years, especially now
I belive your're gonna love to listen to William Fitzsimmons ( try Beautiful Girl or After All)
What a story. I myself been listening to Iron and Wine for years... and now when I'm stuck at home, and it is difficult for me to adjust to learning like this... I know where to go and find peace so needed.
Glad you found him .. he's amazing.
sip of wine, some cheese, books, books and books underneath my christmas lights, the window opened and the gentle breeze coming in to kiss the edge of the pages, and this music. Life is still and perfect.
Anyone mentioned books ? ;)
Damn right girl! I would add a guitar only
@Danijel Domazet mmmmmmmm..... you wouldnt actually be interested in a job i have right?
Christmas lights and window open...you must not be Canadian.
Well said my ma’am❤️👍💪🐈

Whoa man can we get some details?
Were you a 4 member family?

I guess when I'm 80 years old, I would desire to listen to this album again.
RUclips recommendations has done it again. This is beautiful.
I’d never heard of Sam until he sat down on the floor next to me last night at the Atlanta airport, as we waited for our flight to RDU. I’m glad he sat there, for he makes beautiful music.
I haven't listened to this album in ages, but Cinder and Smoke always gives me goosebumps. perfect album to help keep calm during quarantine
When he mentioned iron and wine , he introduced to a whole new era of music.
Thank you Mr afterglow
I like this album so much that I don't listen to it anymore. It just brings back so many memories, it gets overwhelming and then I stop lol
Same. I only now have the courage to listen to it again.
Same. Hard to believe it's been twenty years. The weird thing is, it brought back memories even when it first came out. Like it had somehow been a part of my childhood.
i got super high and danced in my garden barefoot listening to this album
Sounds like a good day!
I danced in my underwear on the streets and my neighbors joined in
thats the most iron and wine shit ive ever heard
I swear. Like every few months I just lay in the grass on a sunday and play this album in my headphones. It's the most grounding thing ever.
I'm drinking Pacificos and laying on my bed. It's close to midnight. It's my night off. Pretty tame evening but I'm enjoying the music.
There's not many albums I can listen to on repeat, but this...
I was so nervous with the classes I have to teach tomorrow, but after listening to these melodies i feel so relaxed....
So how did those classes go?
@@Nawras672 jeez...it was a long time ago. But i guess i did well
@@leticiaminto4238 Wow a reply a year later I hope you're still teaching
I hope you are still smashing it @@leticiaminto4238

those sunny sleepy afternoons of my adolescence with this in the background. never will forget those youthful feelings
our endless numbered days
Not sure how I stumbled upon these beautiful melodies but i'm happy I did
Same.
this is exactly what I've experienced. The best part of it: feeling of the connection with other people that somehow stumbled upen these beautifukl melodies, and felt the happiness and beauty in this peace of music. I luv ya ppl!
same here darling
Wow! Thanks for the suggestion, youtube. This is amazing!
You just thanked to an algoritme? Ourdays are pretty Awesome
My dad told me about this not RUclips, I don't think anything would have even come up about iron and wine
10 years old and still one of my favorite albums
This album crossed my path so many times and each time I chose to let it pass. Either I never actually took the time to listen or I've changed, because this is beautiful.

It’s been 11 years since I’ve listened to this album. Brings back so many good memories. 😊
Big thanks to Sub Pop for uploading these. I just cancelled my Amazon experience. id like to get my music organically from now on.
The entire album is gold. Everything this man touches makes your heart lighter and soul fly.
Passing Afternoon is one of the best songs I have ever heard
A zillion years later this album still brings me to tears, every time.
Same
It hasn’t been that long lol. I guess I am, gratefully, getting old. This was my favorite band in high school, & I had the poster that came with the The Shepherd’s Dog pinned to my door. Can’t see the album cover without being transported back to my old room lol.
And then you have hipsters saying music these days suck. They don't search hard enough really. This entire album is gold and many other artists are also brilliant.
eases a portion of my anxiety
So glad to hear this again. Tickles my memories, in a good way.
this album really be hittin different at 32 than it did at 16
Same
same
im 27 and i feel that. but also god damn man its an eternal thing we know when we are 16 but we dont see how intense it is
yup
listening to this rn at 33 remembering sitting in a parking lot with my highschool ex smoking a bowl and me singing all the songs to her and trying to not cry (in the good way). glad my memory randomly pulled this up tonight.
this album changed my life when i was a kid
i could listen to this kind of music on loop for the next decade or so. thanks for this and the other full albums too ;) this is a treasure indeed.
As a person who loves rap this is...just so beutiful
We rap fans really boil down to poetry lovers 💚
Rap is just poetry on a beat ❤️
Same
I never wanted a joint more than I do now. This takes me back to cold mornings dark coffee and many good times.
I just subscribed to your channel 👊
each coming night - lyrics
Will you say when I'm gone away
"My lover came to me and we'd lay
In rooms unfamiliar but until now"
Will you say to them when I'm gone
"I loved your son for his sturdy arms
We both learned to cradle then live without"
Will you say when I'm gone away
'Your father's body was judgment day
We both dove and rose to the riverside"
Will you say to me when I'm gone
"Your face has faded but lingers on
Because light strikes a deal with each coming night"
20 years of this beautiful , pleaceful album ...

This hits different when I'm looking to type comment cliches. Also listened to this when family died. God I hope I get some sweet like click validation dopamine. Long live Iron and Wine.
This abum spontaneously inpired me to draw, and i just did, and it was perfectly musicalized. Thank you!
A thinking musicians music. Portrays the memories of my two departed Sons and of my coming reunion with them. Sorrowfully happy.
That's beautiful

Ice cold rock on lyrics
Perfect resonance pattern for dancing in the garden
And it builds..
fever dream: ....ahhhhhhh......ur voices are like warm sun rays in autumn......
Reminds me of Sufjan Stevens.. but equally beautiful
So true! I've never thought that
thanks. Because of this comment I found a nice new album :)
passing afternoon is literally the best singer/songwriter song for calming down. fight me on this.
Glow Worms by Vashti Bunyan >>>>

literally the best playlist to listen to while studying
Thanks Sub Pop for so many beautiful music
Iron and Wine always has the most beautiful expression of a moment
It's just the album which I've been looking for.
Gentle and sweet.
This + the 4K Tropical Rain & Relaxing Nature Sounds from TheSilentWatcher is just cosy heaven. They were standing next to each other in my recommendeds and they suit each other perfectly as if it were faith :D Seriously, try it! :D I put the tropical rain slightly louder than this album but you can alter it any way you like :)
Ty for the idea! :)
thx for the suggestion :)
imagine is 3 am and is rainingin ur hood ;)
you are a genius
Respect +1 ; any other genius ideas please :)
thank you so much because i dont know this artist and i love so much this album! So beautiful, calme and peacefull! love love love ^^
I would listen to this entire album to fall asleep as a deeply disturbed insomniac teenager.
one of my most favorite albums of all time.
I've had this album for years and always thought it was way shorter than this. It makes everything still, but everything pass so quickly.
Lyrics here
On Your Wings
God, there is gold hidden deep in the ground
God, there's a hangman that wants to come around
How we rise when we're born
Like the ravens in the corn
On their wings, on our knees
Crawling careless from the sea
God give us love in the time that we have
God, there guns growing out of our bones
God, every road takes us farther from home
All these men that you made
How we wither in the shade
Of your trees, on your wings
We are carried to the sea
God give us love in the time that we have
Naked As We Came
She says, "Wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes around the yard
She says, "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes around the yard
Cinder and Smoke
Give me your hand
The dog in the garden row is covered in mud
And dragging your mother's clothes
Cinder and smoke
The snake in the basement
Found the juniper shade
The farmhouse is burning down
Give me your hand
And take what you will tonight, I'll give it as fast
And high as the flame will rise
Cinder and smoke
Some whispers around the trees
The juniper bends
As if you were listening
Give me your hand
Your mother is drunk as all the firemen shake
A photo from father's arms
Cinder and smoke
You'll ask me to pray for rain
With ash in your mouth
You'll ask it to burn again
Sunset Soon Forgotten
Be this sunset soon forgotten
Your brothers left here shaved and crazy
We've learned to hide our bottles in the well
And what's worth keeping, sun still sinking
Down and down
Once again
Down and down
Gone again
Be this sunset one for keeping
This June bug street sings low and lovely
Those band-aid children
Chased your dog away
She runs, returning, sun still sinking
Down and down
Once again
Down and down
Gone again
Teeth in the Grass
And when you give me your clothes
And when we're lovers at last
Fresh air, perfume in your nose
There will be teeth in the grass
And when you give me your house
When we're all brothers at last
There will be food in our mouths
There will be teeth in the grass
And when there's nothing to want
When we're all brilliant and fast
When all tomorrows are gone
There will be teeth in the grass
This is great. First track particularly is very relaxing but holds a cool groove.
havent listen to this in years! thank you youtube for bringing it up!
ahh can't stop listening to Passing Afternoon!
Let me be the old who remembers exactly when this came out. Now let me be the thankful one seeing all these other people enjoying and spreading such beauty.
Perfection, makes me want to lay in the grass and stare at clouds all day
This is like walking with the sun on my face on a breezy Day of Spring, barefoot in a field of knee high wildflowers or daisies! Such a warm embrace! This is what I imagine...
the album is so beautiful
such a beautiful experience.
This Album pokes at my heart softly. My spirit however is spilling seas out here. His love for his wife is most tender and amazing
What kind of people give dislike to this amazing album??
The kind who will always remain deaf to beautiful music like this.
There are a lot of stupid people in the world
Everybobygetsavote.

Free Until They Cut Me Down
*****
When the men take me to the devil tree
I will be free and shining like before
Papa don't tell me what I should've done
She’s the one
She's the one who begged me
"Take me, take me home"
When the wind wraps me like the reaper's hand
I will swing free until they cut me down
Papa don't tell me what I could've done
She’s the one
She's the one who begged me
"Take me, take me home"
When the sea takes me like my mother's arms
I will breathe free as any word of God
Papa don't tell me what you would've done
She’s the one
She's the one who begged me
"Take me, take me home"

So good.
Modern folk at its best.
beautiful
This BANJO sound... So divine & angelic... :)
Good album through and through.
It took me five/six years to find artists that have given me the same feeling that King of Convenience gave me when I discovered them. Thank you world....
takes me back to high school, one of my most listened to albums. this and sufjan.
Popcorn Sutton Same. I also played a lot of M Ward in high-school. Frick...wonderful time of being a weirdo and not blasting whatever was on Much Music in my ear holes.
I feel like Sam's and Sufjan's fanbase overlap lol

lazy afternoon, wine and garlic bread, in a luxury hotel beach, kinda song.
I can relate to both, and think you both are right equally.
I'd like that too. Only thing it's not possible where I live haha.
BRO I NEVER RELAX YOU WANNA FIGHT
you need some weed in your life bro
Shubhangi Jagdev +Andrew McIntyre - you two gave me ideas to draw, thank you
So nice to have you in Sound cloud ....I've listen to this music while I'm out for my exercising. 🙂
Thanks for time-stamping each song sub pop
This album is really bloody good! Not usually my cup of tea but this is spot on 👍
bet you drink a lot of tea
@@jonathanbliek8114 poppy tea.....
Wonderful album
Great album, still. I remember when this came out it was a pretty big deal. No youtube back then.
If it wasn't for that subtle static in the background, I'd say this album is 10/10 recording wise
Sounds amazing on a good system or good headphones
His name is Sam Beam. It sounds like that because he recorded all of these albums by himself
Alone
Probably in few basements
Dubbed over and over
Same man
Sam Beam 😊💓😎
@@nrawls3442 oh wow no shit i didnt know that is he playing all the instruments himself?
This soothes me so much, and I'm so upset right now, I really need it.
Tomorrow I am going to a cardiologist to find out if I have heart disease and what that means. This random 'find' has filled me with sweet joy and sadness. Sorry - it wasn't random - beautiful music.
How is your heart, Samantha?
the best recommendation from youtube
I can sleep while listening this, love from INDIA :)
Great album. Thanks to youtube algorithms that showed me that while i listening to Gregory Allan Isakov. Very transcedental. Took me far far away...
These are the music to calm my mind down.
I searched for them through a comment on Facebook. I do not regret.
so cool cant stop listening
Just missed them last night in Chicago on the Best Epic Tour :/ Oh well...Soothing my saddened soul with his sound
