Avett Brothers "Just Be Simple" (Jason Molina Cover) Chicago Theatre, Chicago, IL 11.09.17

So Beautiful!
You need to know about this guy: Jason Andrew Molina (December 30, 1973 - March 16, 2013) was an American musician and singer-songwriter. Raised in northern Ohio, he came to prominence performing and recording as Songs: Ohia, both in solo projects and with a rotating cast of musicians in the late 1990s. Beginning in 2003, he would garner a further indie following for his releases with the band Magnolia Electric Co.
Molina had a prolific career between his two musical projects and solo releases,[1] producing a total of sixteen studio albums, eight EPs, and numerous singles. His overall discography was noted by critics for blending elements of indie rock, blues, and alternative country with his tenor vocal range.
In 2009, Molina canceled a tour with Magnolia Electric Co., citing health problems as the reason. He would spend the next four years dealing with alcoholism, which ultimately resulted in his death from multiple organ failure in March 2013.
Lyrics:
You'll never hear me talk about one day getting out
Why put a new address on the same old loneliness
Everybody knows where that is
We built that house of his
And when he's not home
Someone else we know always is
If Heaven's really coming back
I hope it has a heart attack
When they see how dangerous it is for guys like that
The night has always known when it's time to get going
When it's really been so long that it starts showing
It's always had that ghost who always almost
Tells me the Secret
How there's really no difference in who he was once
And who he's become
I think he's been letting me win
And I think he's doing it again
Thanks for letting me win
Everything you hated me for…
Honey there was so much more
I just didn't get busted
But I'm not looking for an easy way out
This whole life it's been about
Try and try and try, try and try and try
To be simple again, just be simple again
Just be simple again, just be simple again
Just be simple again, just be simple again
