[@MickeyKnoxification]

Very true.

Because they *mostly* play commercial RnB and Pop on the radio and MTV :(

[@rosscobosco]

Ah here!! I totally agree with you except its not one of the best songs ever made really is it? its a good tune from a good band, lets not exaggerate now. I think your just having a moment!!

[@berlinsaintclair9100]

I agree. IMHO, I grew up in the 80s/90s and THIS is what music should have evolved to instead of Blink 182, Sugar Ray and Smashmouth crap.

[@raquelbrassfield7024]

I think I was in a store, and this was playing in the background, and immediately stopped what I was doing, made note of the lyrics and went searching for it. It is probably now one of the most played songs on my favorites playlist, and my love affair with Boy and Bear was born. What a great band!

[@karenglenn6707]

Me too, still remember what shop I was in at the Bendigo Marketplace shopping centre. I just stood there listening until it finished and as soon as I got home I found it. Have loved it since!!

[@jaygrafton3048]

Saw these guys when this album came out and they were doing a USA tour supporting it. They were playing a little dive bar called the Thunderbird in ST. Louis MO. I'll bet there wasn't 120 people there. To this day it was one of my all time best concert experiences! No security, no roped off stage, just a small room and a few brews with my wife and daughter listening to these guys play what is still one of my favorite albums. The stage was literally 16 inches above the dance floor. Boy & Bear stood around after the show talking with us for probably 30 minutes. I could not thank them enough for putting on such a good show for what was likely the smallest group of people they played to while here in the states. Thanks again Guys!

[@Jung1981giggles]

That’s awesome :)

[@jodydeschenes5031]

This gorgeous, vast, ethereal song haunts me as much today as it did 10 years ago. And whoever is responsible for the video did a masterful job of capturing the essence of the song. Magic. Captivating. Epic. Perfect.

Even on the way to his funeral this song came on the radio and I burst into tears and took it as a sign from him. It’s wild how music can do this with our memories!

[@rachelvilanova7527]

LYRICS: 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.

My first major crush told me to check out this song, amidst all the times I told her to check out music I liked. That was over 5 years ago. I honestly didn't think I'd like it that much (I guess back then I assumed most of my friends had a crap taste in music), but instead I was pleasantly surprised. And after recently rediscovering it, I can say this song will have a special place in my heart. It also reminds me how much I miss her.
