5 years later this is still my favourite song of all time. Never gets old

[@TatianaKarpoff]

Oh how good it is to hear that sound again...real music...

[@joelgoldman5790]

I was playing this as I was driving through Vermont to Killington. The cold fresh air made it even better!

[@erind9999]

It's totally a Vermont song. :)

[@texascountry3361]

This is a timeless piece! Never gets old! The guitar rhythm is on point. Simple but powerful! Vocals etc everything! I’m gonna play the hell out of the guitar and Sing this song!

[@patrickiocunningham]

exactly! the guitar sounds like a Fleetwood Mac song but I can't place it yet.

[@Agarbeau]

Never did I expect to be so absolutely overwhelmed by any musical group as I am with this band. They are the top of my charts now.

[@patrickiocunningham]

check out Angus and Julia Stone you may love them too

[@tomace1748]

This is the best song I've heard in a long while. Thank you

[@burlingtonbill1]

+Tom Ace Best "new" song I've heard in a LONG time !

[@cp78912]

This is the kind song that makes you wanna go camping or out to a cabin.

[@jackietreehorn8098]

Impossible to get sick of this song.

[@osoyoosforever9643]

Just the right mix of acoustics and harmonizing, great toe tapping tune.

[@specialeeffexx]

This is my 2nd fav song of theirs! 'Old Town Blues' is my fav! I have these 2 songs on repeat on my phone! Great for getting stuff done and feeling uplifted!

[@DonJHughes]

This has a very mid to late 70's sound and similar to a Fleetwood Mac/Eric Clapton tempo. We need more music like this! Good old rock and roll!

[@hondansx1000]

Donovan Hughes yeah that's what I thought when I first heard this song, I thought it was Fleetwood Mac, the lead guitar line in the chorus reminds me very much of Lindsey Buckingham's style of guitar work

[@MegaJohnnydepp]

+Donovan Hughes Moment I first heard this song it not only gave me that old music vibe, but a sense of easy, relaxing music.

[@rayjr62]

More like something Steven Stills would have done (with Graham Nash singing). That sliding guitar hooks sounds like Steve (ca. 1975).

[@eq2783]

Donovan Hughes reminds me of dire straits

[@jacobwatson1009]

My thoughts exactly.

[@wiremucurtis4865]

Got to love New Zealand scenery 😍

[@elliesullivan7966]

this is the most beautiful song

[@AndySalinger33]

I keep coming back to listen to this masterpiece, year after year. This song is special. It does something to my brain. Something good.

[@Horsemanpro63]

I was hooked when I heard this on the radio,,,great song,,,,,summer song for sure,,,the lead singer has a good hook on his voice,,,,the band's other songs are great to listen to also...I'm a fan for sure ..

[@TatianaKarpoff]

I cant tell you how many times Ive listened to this song today lol

[@mommyof3in10Ac]

me...3 times this morning already..lol

[@normanpouch]

I never get sick of this. It's hooked me. See them in London in 2020. there must a God, thank you.

[@Whovianize]

omg the hook on this song!!!!! this song is far too lovely!!!

[@jill9700]

Whovianize Listen to it on repeat in the shower. I haven't done that in years.

[@Whovianize]

Jeff Baker thanks!!! :-)

[@warrenday6357]

My lovely friend Emma introduced me to them. She moved to Cornwall from Kent. I must have listened to this song nearly 100 times driving there and back over the summer this year.

[@MelanieDevaney]

+Warren Day This is a total road trip song! Could not agree more. Great taste you have!

[@specialeeffexx]

R u still making that trip to see Emma?

[@rodskiwoody]

Boy & Bear has spanned a lifetime of rock n roll………………mine. Yea, I am one of the few to be able to say “I grew up on rock n roll”. There were too many to name in a few short words but they all were the greats that had an impact on this world……….this universe. Forget the bombs, the money, the race, the evil, the cold hearted and the rest of it all. These are those that got us through. I am sixty-eight years young. I look 20 years younger than that. It’s because of rock n roll. In what I believe is a unique niche of it all is Boy & Bear. They understand. They are the bridge.

[@mitchroberts1604]

Very nicely said. Im 19yo and grew up with different music ofcourse. I always only listened to the popular modern songs because everyone did. But a while ago I discovered the good old rock&roll thanks to a friend of mine. I now barely listen to moderm popular songs and blast Dire Straits, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler(solo), Kaleo, Boy&bear, etc. all day. I found my real taste in music which I will listen to forever. I like alot of other genres too, but my interest in them is not as consistant as in rock&roll.

[@specialeeffexx]

rodskiwoody AMEN Brotha! Preach! Im 56 with a spine injury and family drama and music is my drug of choice to help me deal with it ALL! I have a FB page “Live Music Helps Us Live Life!!” I recently featured ‘Boy and Bear’ due to my pre-ordering their new album and loving “Suck On Light”!! I’ve played Harlequin Dream a billion times at least!!

[@rheahayes3149]

“Thank You Australia” for An AMAZING Group Of ARTISTS❣️Boy and Bear are Truly Unique and Original... Such a Refreshing Change❣️❣️Look forward to many more Songs.💕Waterloo, Ontario, Canada💗

[@sunnysmiles8211]

This song has increased my quality of life!!!!! 🤩 I have my things ready, ready to let it All Go!!!!!!

[@MikeGTR]

Australia kicks ass with music.

[@ernadzelilovic6903]

Whenever I'm spending time in nature and I'm feeling really nice and peaceful, this is the song I play. It's always the first song that comes to my mind.

[@joaquinbarnes4857]

Christ, 7 years. Still wonderful.

[@marym6647]

i've been listening to this on repeat for the past 10 months

[@tankeryanker1972]

Heard this on Sirius. Sure glad I saved it as a "favorite ". Has a folk sound to it. I absolutely love it! Great job!

[@sierraball444]

I heard this song in Books A Million on Labor Day. I music IDed it because I said that I may never get to hear it again. I'm so glad I did. Now I listen to it a few times a day!!!

[@MikesLife87]

I just discovered this song not to long ago. And mannnnnn. It’s now one of my favorites. And I agree with the other comments. Where are all the people at. It should have milllllllllions of views. It’s ok. I’ll keep watching it 🙌🏻

[@ndg43]

Love this band! Harlequin Dream is a terrific album. The lead singer sounds like Lindsey Buckingham here and like David Gray on some other songs. Hope to see them live if they come to Canada!

[@crabbyappleton4384]

Has a great throw back feel to the 70's. Nice

[@myhideaway08]

Thank Sirius for the heavy rotation! You guys are AWESOME! I have heard this 6 times in 2 weeks, I am hooked! Best of everything for you all, Come on down to the real Southern Sun, in Ocala,Florida, area! I would go to that show!

[@Pipurete]

In all you'll see What was it that came down on me that night A conjuring, I held on to that moment And lie just to make it alive I stood out there in the covering In the baskings of a holy night And I was lucid and conscious And hovering like a firefly My mind stretched out on the canopy It put its arms out slow And I heard the whispers of silence floating down from the radio So come on, come on I'm ready now I got the feeling honey like I'm ready to roll You see I'm not gonna wait till the end of me 'Cause I got the burning fire in bed of my soul I saw the light from a kettle gun Sixteen days under a Southern Sun And there were times when I thought that I wouldn't mind it if I lost my mind out there You wouldn't believe me if I told you so The things I saw were enough to make the man in me A man in me, make a man of me So come on, come on I'm ready now Go get your things out honey, let's get ready to roll Oh I can feel the wave coming over me I've been waiting for this day too long just to let it all go As a child I was wonder-eyed at the thought that I might know A life in the ecstasy of Rock'n Roll O-oh-oh i'm not taking it slow I'm an arrow in a bow You think that I don't know, what it is that makes me glow So come on, come on I'm ready now I got the feeling honey like I'm ready to roll You see I'm not gonna wait till the end of me 'Cause I got the burning fire in the bed of my soul

[@steffaniwebb435]

Such a great song. They remind me of America and Fleetwood Mac mixed together.

a really nice rolling rhythm and hook - i woke up tuit this morning on CBC Radio 2 and cant get it out of my head - a real ear worm

[@carpenter1138]

There are a lot of comments about why they aren't more popular in the US. I'm in California and I've been listening to them for a few years. The way I discovered them was on pandora. Algorithyms..... The other people that I know that know of them are mostly outdoor people. Climbers, backpackers, kayakers etc.. They're definitely pop and I would say here they fall into the genre of Coldplay(although they are newer and younger). This genre in the US started losing popularity a while back to other pop genres(Billie Eyelash etc..). A lot of people here still listeing to Boy and Bear's general genre are older(late 30's, 40's 50's). Also, it's worth notng that the songs that are known here are completely different then the top ten most know BnB songs in Austrailia. Thanks to .....Algorythms.... The most popular song you are likely to hear here is "Just Dumb" . We play it around the campfire on expedition multi day rafting trips.

[@richiehoyt8487]

"Coldplay"??!!! 😰😖🤮 OK, if you're putting the thumbscrews on, I guess I can _kinda_ see where you're coming from there - but I'm just _Sooo_ glad I didn't hear that comparison before coming to Boy and Bear myself!

[@retrofuturistic8]

To the people commenting that this song has a late 1970s sound. Yes, it does. And that sound is Peter Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill." Thematically and musically. This is like a well-crafted updating of that classic.

About 11 years ago I heard this song in Chili's on two different occasions. At first, I thought it was a Ryan Adams track that I may had missed on one of his many albums. Fast fwd to 2024 and I barely found out who the artist is from Sirius while picking up my son from school.

[@LifecoachAshleyBerges]

I LOVE THEM.

[@designthinkingwithgian]

One of 2013's greatest hit!

[@shawniemar]

I love this song so much.

[@alwaysamysteryyes2021]

I work part time at night at a Goodwill (where i first heard this) and the other night i was in a pissy mood and this came on there and i was instantly put in a good mood.

[@sofilasofi717]

This is Florence Pugh's favorite song

[@jameskammer5339]

My only guess the reason this group doesn't excel in todays world. Their style is reminiscent of the 1980's, which in turn only attracts the baby boomer generation. If this group had been around late 1970's and 1980's they would have undoubtedly ruled the airwaves. Great lyrics, awesome harmonies with a lead vocalist that stands out on his own. Catchy beat, with an infectious chorus and music hooks all make them unforgettable.
