Anberlin - The Unwinding Cable Car

[@LouisWritingSomethingCrazy]

Some songs are criminally underrated. This is one of those songs.

[@kevinhamilton9920]

100%

[@DougieRay]

I love this song. Always have. Always will.

[@sharksbitestuff4240]

Anberlin is completely underrated, it’s sad, they are so good!

[@michaelradigan4051]

Yes... No one wants to end to those questions)

[@RachelSzeman]

Definitely. These lyrics alone....

[@zach942]

I'm so tired of being okay with not being okay.. ty anberlin you were there for me when I first heard you a decade ago and you're here for me now

[@meursault.1984]

I want to go back to this time. Before life happened. When we were truly alive. Everything went downhill after college.

[@TracyMehoke]

It’s about 20 years later, but this morning, think I’m finally getting back to that, and this is the song I wanted to hear.

[@vicko1978]

I was in a Christian mission/rehab about ten years ago..this was the only CD we had in our weight room...the whole album is really good.

[@michaelhenderson6112]

Good for you mate. Hope you are well.

[@vicko1978]

@@michaelhenderson6112 heyyy man...just came back to this song tonight...I'm engaged, working full time, taking care of my daughter and my step-kids...staying outta trouble and doing for others the best that I can

[@michaelhenderson6112]

@@vicko1978 That's awesome brother. I'm glad to hear you are healthy and have a wonderful family. I'm also still enjoying this album. I pray Yahweh continues to bless you and take care of you on your journey. Take care my friend.

[@vicko1978]

@iBlayzen indeed my friend...and your comment just brought me back to listen again👍🙏🤙

[@vladvuceta]

@iBlayzen best anberlin album for sure

[@WornTraveler]

My twin passed three years ago. They introduced me to Anberlin, music which always had an angsty nostalgia to it. I hadn't really listened for many years, but now that my twin is gone, it really takes me back to a different time. A time I desperately wish I could get back to

[@ryankelly8428]

Ever hear a song you haven't listened to in years but used to love, and suddenly your whole world feels more complete?

[@TheREVIEWGUY1-ip1wm]

True story my life is like that 😢😢

[@moniquetriana9981]

Literally the best underrated band in history.

[@E.2FYE]

"I WAS AT A CHURCH CAMP SOME YEARS AGO; & IT'S WHERE I FIRST HEARD THIS SONG!"....❤

[@katharper655]

As a DEVOTED RUSH FAN for me, the bar is set VERY HIGH for any other band or solo artist. THIS SONG-THIS BAND- is close.

[@Iainsane]

After nearly 1½ decades, this is still one of the finest AB produced.

[@asssshhhhhh]

Makes my heart as equally happy as it aches

[@TVGxGaming]

Who doesn't like Anberlin? They are one the best the world has to offer for music

[@gracemon2oe]

“With quiet words, I’ll lead you in” I can’t explain why this cuts so deep. There’s a grace and a gentleness in it.

[@TheSpringMood]

It's 2019 and I still love this song. So timeless, so classic. 11 years ago I first heard this song and it has stayed with me ever since. Wonderful!

[@simonstegmaier6296]

Feel the same this song reminds me on my first working station in germany. 2014 ive seen them live in london!!

[@ocozinheiro]

Amazing

[@GraveyardGames]

My lady showed me this and yes she said the same thing since 2008.

[@OleT967]

Same 2020

[@clawblade9462]

Replying in 2020

[@coolnegative]

Still gives me chills and makes my eyes well up just a bit.

[@bappos_on_cracko4394]

Best Anberlin song.

[@Trippy_Times]

One of the many nostalgic songs that played in class on the radio every day many many years ago..

[@arthurferrazdecamargo9484]

What makes us who we are? Eyes? Hair? Race? Sex? Who will you... love? Who will you... trust? Where is home? What hardships will you face? What hardships will you overcome? What makes you happy? What are your passions? If you could... do it all over again... What would you change? Relationships? Choices? Direction? What experience would you relive? What will you... achieve? What will you... be remembered for? Don’t Drop Your Arms.

[@LittleH]

that... was ... so ... deep...

[@AL-kz3gd]

❤❤❤

[@create.withallie]

I always cry during "you're so brilliant, don't soon forget" cuz I've been through a LOT during the past with depression, etc. so I'm thankful for this song

[@mikojude5058]

same here..

[@LouisWritingSomethingCrazy]

Me too.

[@guitaristchris]

I hope you're in a much better place now

[@blonded3598]

My favorite part

[@Soapiesox101]

No one really knows Anberlin, but i think, by far, it is one of the best rock bands. It is so well spoken, and it makes its lyrics ring in your head for hours after the song played.

[@meisbigepiccoolstrongpro1365]

this aged well

[@thaliusbelinti1842]

after all this time, the song still resonates within me... breathtaking...

[@TeteuhawSC]

+Thalius Belinti Same!

[@edidiongebong8307]

Sublime music!

[@melaniededrick6044]

It's Monday, May 27th, 2024, and this song fills my soul still.

[@sachur8]

I always listen to this when i had my daily walk. Now, stuck at home quarantined but still listens to Anberlin ❤️

[@TheREVIEWGUY1-ip1wm]

Update did you find the road to the unwinding cable car hope you found your real home

[@romesindacut]

I’m glad my dad played me this album as a kid. I know all the words still 10 years later 👌🏼

[@alexanderking3730]

Me and my ex used to listen to this song all the time when we first started dating. I miss those simple times when everything was innocent and we would just feed off of each others love for music. Love Anberlin so much. 💜

[@fishandflywithgus]

This one lands more than you know… 💔

[@Game.Play.Replay]

Still good 17 years later! This is my favorite song - wow! Helped me as I just really started walking with the Lord ❤ Still growing and in awe of the Lord Loved seeing them live back then!

[@ericwilson6994]

Added to sacrifice have faith in God - great music - they're from Avicci - the band

[@adambarnett4509]

Very underrated band. Sad they don't get more attention.

[@yavuzaky]

Your motive, unstable You're like an unwinding cable car Listening for voices But it's the choices that make us who we are Go your own way, even seasons have changed Just burn those new leaves over So self-absorbed, you've seemed to ignore the prayers That have already come about This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your arms Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words, I'll lead you in Backing away from the problem of pain You never had a home You've been misguided, you're hiding in shadows For so very long Don't you believe that you've been deceived? That you're no better Than the hair in your eyes It never disguised what you're really thinking of This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your arms Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words, I'll lead you in This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your arms Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words, I'll lead you in You're so brilliant, don't soon forget You're so brilliant, grace marked your heart You're so brilliant, don't soon forget You're so brilliant, grace marked your heart This is the correlation between salvation and love [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your arms Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words, I'll lead you in This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your arms Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words, I'll lead you in

[@LouisWritingSomethingCrazy]

The two incomprehensible lines "Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart, With quiet words I'll lead you in and out of the dark."

[@MusicWithDan]

First line begins with “Emotive, unstable” I heard the same thing too.

[@atvena]

It’s 2020 and I never forgot this band I love this song !! Be safe everyone stay strong 💪🏾

[@danielmartin5642]

[@danielmercadoavila1080]

Yo también

[@treeclimberdave]

First time I heard this song was on a friend's Myspace profile and a video was playing on his page as well of transmission line workers flying out to the lines and working on the high voltage lines. It sounds funny but it went together perfectly. We were both young, hardass loggers trying not to get killed at work and living the wild life. This always reminds me of those days and those friends.

[@camh3958]

Songs are like emotional bookmarks that can bring back the memories of feelings you once felt. I remember loving this song in 2009. I was in highschool, happy and was anxious to see what my future looked like. I can now look back on that moment and know just how great my future was going to be. Makes me nostalgic. The 2009 version of me had quite an adventure ahead of him.

[@Satsuki66]

I absolutely can not get enough of this song. It still makes me as emotional today as it did the first time I discovered it.

[@shortys923]

You're so brilliant, grace marked your heart

[@rambadadt]

Switchfoot and Anberlin are coming to my university!!! we found out today ♥

[@FlaccidSunday]

"So self-absorbed you've seemed to ignore the prayers that have already come about" Sometimes we get so lost in what we want or what we think we need, that we forget what's already been given to us; life. Without the grace of God, we wouldn't be here today. Just think about what we've been given rather than what we want given to us. Amen.

[@shaun8787]

I just randomly thought of this song and prayerfully pulled this one out of the depths of my memories. This song brought me through so many rough times!

[@thenorthface4]

I get goosebumps every time I hear this...

[@whiteghost3twon322]

Stephanie E me too

[@lxchronic420xl]

It's crazy the feels I get from this...Goosebumps from head to toe!!

[@davemarriott985]

This song makes my cry tears of nostalgia. 😢 Why can't we have great music like this anymore?

[@rocksteadyras]

"So self-absorbed you've seemed to ignore the prayers that have already come about" Most beautiful line ever. If there were such a thing as a perfect song to capture the dynamic of my relationship, this is IT!. Ohh I love it, and his voice. Thanks Anberlin.

[@leonciogutierrezvii2405]

Life is hard for me this time around full of anxiety and financial struggles as my job got shutdown by the Pandemic for over a year now and situation right now have no signs of improvement. I suddenly remembered this song and while watching through the video tears pour down my eyes as the lines "what hardships will you face?" "what hardships will you overcome?" hits me. I wish everyone is doing well and healthy and to those who're fighting their own battles during these difficult times never forget that YOU are so brilliant, don't drop your arms we will get through this.

[@ericwilson6994]

Praying for you good luck!

[@AlMightyMac]

13 years, 13 long years and I still come back to this song and still thankful I've had the chance to do so... I was a pretty messed up teen from everything from being abused from my parents a close friend hanging herself when she was 14 only to follow alcoholism, started to have seizures constantly caused me to lose my job because I was no longer safe to work I wasn't even able to live on my own for fear of choking on my vomit spent some time in the hospital and I'm now stable, went on for more schooling have a good job and even have a son myself who I love more than anything in this world and if anyone is still reading this and struggling it will get better no I may not be tomorrow or next week or even next year...but stay strong and do everything you can and I promise you'll become a much stronger person and I wish everyone of you happiness because you all deserve it!

[@aliciaperry9627]

This is a very underrated, yet amazing song from a very underrated band. Miss these guys. I wonder why they broke up. They recorded some amazing music.

Yep, but they left us with tons of great music.

This song means so much to me.. It's one of the first songs my husband-to-be played to me

[@mofowens]

I'm a 25 year old man, pouring tears out of my eyes thinking about 2 years ago when i would drive with the only girl i loved listening to this song thinking we would be together forever, until selfish ways of anger i displayed towards her brought on the end of what was the most important thing with the most inportant person i have ever met...I will always love liz... hurting knowing she hates me i wish i could take it all back

2021 and this is still inspirational. We need a reunion tour.

[@ninaverhalen]

I made the decision to close my business/practice today due to not being able to work during the pandemic, and no end in sight for my profession at large...this song came on on my drive home, with a car full of equipment and supplies, and I just wept. Not because of sadness, because I was so humbled and reminded that God is with me through it all.

[@neotradnous]

God bless 🙏🏻 you never know, doing that could’ve opened new doors to better things, or closed a door that something bad was going to come through. In the end it will work out

[@LoganMcCarthy]

YUP.

[@pamelagiddings6913]

I think I've now been truly able to understand the meaning this song can gave. It helps me not get carried away with my thoughts, and to try not to be so self absorbed to see less light and seek more than what has been granted to oneself. This is a song that can give an inspiration to me (not being narcissistic here) to try to start to mainrain calm

Be careful what you wish for Mass exodus

[@JeffH-x3k]

I kept hearing this song on Air1 constantly over and over again 15 years ago and I got so tired it

[@flavofaze966]

...one of my favorite Anberlin songs....

[@MrWindfolla]

Hello from Russia, 6th of July, 2021. I lived in Kirov, Kirovskaya oblast' (state) and I've liked this song for 10 years now. Music really unites us despite of all point of views!

[@justindtackett]

I miss Anberlin so much. Stephens heart can be felt through all their music, and it reaches right through those speaker to grab hold of me. Im so glad I saw them live, it was the most grateful performance I've ever seen.

[@alkalinerush]

reminds me of getti thru a hard time when my son was in the hospital cuz he was born 3 months early. hardest thing i've ever experienced and the most faith testing, too. He was scheduled to be discharged so i brought a bag of the most sentimental stuff of his home like stuffed animals (his 1st one, blessed with my tears, ones nurses has put into his incubator. ect...) i put it on top of the car and drove off that night. that night i couldnt forgive myself. God did. this song was a big part.

[@joshlinn77]

this is an amazing song... and regardless of it being christian or not... as a christian I apologize for anyone who felt insulted by someone saying that they were closed minded for not liking the song because of its christian influence. this is a great song and i hope that anyone who listens to it will at least really listen to the lyrics and take them in for what they are without bias

[@ShaneHall]

Yep it's a heck of a lot of fun to sing to. These guys really know how to put melody together.

[@sauskeharuno1]

this song gives me a feeling of a "keep going in life" kinda feeling. The questions that they show makes me wonder, what in the morld am I doing in my life right now. It makes me change my view of ppl and my view of life. I thank Anberlin for being here today to show me what i need to think about and what i need to change. ANBERLIN ROCKS!!!

This song saves lives!

[@Leefboat]

My heart pounds and I feel so haunted when I listen to this. My friend played this at a talent school at my school and rocked it. I just loved it as soon as I heard him play it. It brings around so many aches that your mind is blown. It's that wonderful.

Mike here from Holliava. Years ago my brother gave a CD that his girlfriend burnt for him. It said Anberlin on it. I had no idea what i had just been given. I put the disc in my shitty car stereo and Anberlin's '...Friendship..' album exploded through the speakers. It blew me away. Well-crafted songs with so much energy! That same month Cities was released in Melbourne. i rushed down to JB HI-FI to purchase this gem. I've since turned so many ppl onto this killer record. Anberlin = phenomenal

[@udaykumarbr1231]

such a pleasure listening to Anberlin again during the quarantine.2020.

[@oneprime9442]

This video is so where I am right now. If I were to change one thing about this song, it'd be to change, "it's the choices that make us who we are" to "it's the choices that tell us who we are." My choices change as I change, not the other way around.

[@michaelmitchell2798]

We arent what we think. We are what we do. Its our choices that make us who we are.

[@LouisWritingSomethingCrazy]

Are choices change as we change, and it's those same choices that slowly change us. It's not what we think or say but our choices that make us who we are.

[@WithASingleKiss]

My son, if you have decided to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for the trials. Keep your heart upright and remain resolute; do not be upset in the time of adversity. Hold fast to the Lord, do not separate yourself from him so that you may be successful to the end of your day. Accept all the happens to you, be patient when you are humbled, for as gold is tested in the fire, so those who acceptable to God are tested in the crucible of humiliation. Have confidence in him and he will take care of you; follow the right path and hope in him. You who fear the Lord, wait for his mercy and do not run away lest you fall. You who fear the Lord, trust him and you will not lose your reward. You who fear the Lord, hope for all good things, hope for eternal joy and mercy. Remember what happened to you ancestors. Who has ever trusted in the Lord and been confounded? Who has persevere and fear of the Lord and been abandoned? Who has call upon him and not being heard? For the Lord is compassion and loving-kindness; he forgives our sins and save us in times of distress. Woe to the faint of hearts and weak hands, to the sinners who waver between two paths. Woe to the faint-hearted who lack confidence, because of this they will not be protected. Woe to you who have lost patience! What will you do when the Lord calls you to account? Those who fear the Lord do not disobey his Commandments; those who love him faithfully keeps his Law. Those who fear the Lord keep their hearts ready and humble themselves in his presence saying, "Let us fall into the hands of the Lord and not into the hands of mortals, for great as his power is his mercy. Book Of Sirach 2:1-17🌿

[@AIM2C3]

The secret is your Ego..Your happiness will show your beauty but your beauty will hide in sadness! Do somthing u can be proud of and be productive.. Then you'll find your meaning and spunk again. and take it from me whos defnitly been there. When i was depressed people said they couldnt even reconize me.. Depression sucks but find purpose AND youll find happiness
