And when I was a child, a dream came to me where every soul hanging low found its piece of dignity. Is this a rock ditty or a spiritual anthem? Lol both I guess, this man is a musical genius.

[@Roblade143]

This was my first Brian Fallon song.... so many years ago, and all I can say is that I wish I had discovered him so much earlier in my life

[@Crispyfindus]

Gaslight Anthem, Horrible Crowes, Molly and the Zombies :)

[@doloresalvarez7095]

Oh Brian, how I still love listening to you after these years. No matter what new music you put out, it's always so meaningful and beautiful!! I've raised my three boys on your tunes. I told them that when I leave this earth, don't cry for me. Instead celebrate my life with the music that I instilled in them. Also to remember all the wonderful moments we shared on our long drives, jamming out to all types of music. With gaslight, horrible crows and anything Brian Fallon related!! My love of music can go on and on!! I'm just so grateful that I was able to show my sons what a passion music can bring. I will forever be spinning my vinyl, tapping my feet and listening to all your rhythms. Thank you Brian, you are truly a gift and blessing. We love all the music that you have put out into this world and look forward to many, many more. Don't ever stop making music, your words serve a purpose, that is to find that perfect song that describes what you're feeling. Whatever it may be, it's there, you just need to listen and feel it!!! From your forever fan, Dannunique ❤️

[@BobRobertAdams]

He's dropping banger after banger Looks like Brian's at the top of his game rn

[@owen5468]

when has he haven't? He is just so good

[@craigm2520]

Song is so dam catchy and almost Mo town esq

[@BobRobertAdams]

That's true, I can't actually name a time when Brian's not been at the top of his game, hahahaha

[@BobRobertAdams]

Also Craig, completely agree, a little different from what he usually does, but at the same time, fuckin amazing

[@TheMattShingler]

Gaslight got awfully sappy there for those last records. But Im glad he's gone back to trying to be the punk rock Springsteen now that he's solo. Excited for this new one.

[@tjj794]

His sound is constantly changing now after Gaslight, but I have yet to hear a song written by him that I do not instantly fall in love with. God bless you B. Fal!

[@Finarsin]

It is not even changing that much I felt Gaslight changed much more over the years and I was always skeptical and I was always wrong. He just keeps getting better. Would still like to hear an old school Gaslight record if they make another one.

[@desolatesoul2304]

Changing? This still has that same Brian Fallon feel.

[@jonnyboy5357]

Not all heroes wear capes...some carry a guitar and wear jean jacket s..

[@blayzethebomb]

and white tee shirts

[@neavehallford4207]

true

[@bretthenry6723]

I was about to say blue jeans and white t shirts

[@rossonera1967]

I'm packing up, I've gotta move I'ma blow a fifty-foot hole through the dark clouds in our room I'm making a change I'm gon' starting today I'ma roll these dice with a song Tonight, I'm gonna whip these blues away And I'm gonna run so far they'll never find me again But I ain't leavin', I ain't leavin' 'less I'm leavin' here with you I've been patient while I waited, but I feel it's time to move You've been crying, yeah, I've seen you Honey, I've been crying too If your prayers don't get to Heaven, I'm gon' keep them safe for you If your prayers don't get to Heaven, I'm gon' keep them safe 'til they do I just wait in the cold, cold gray But I know like I've been told, yeah, mama said, "Hold onto hope" She whispers sweet, "There's a light and glory" But you gotta burn that sound of the Voices out that wanna bring you to your knees And you gotta run so far they'll never find you again But I ain't leavin', I ain't leavin' 'less I'm leavin' here with you I've been patient while I waited, but I feel it's time to move You've been crying, yeah, I've seen you Honey, I've been crying too If your prayers don't get to Heaven, I'm gon' keep them safe for you If your prayers don't get to Heaven, I'm gon' keep them safe 'til they do And when I was a child, a dream came to me Where every soul hanging low found its piece of dignity 'Til that dream gets to Heaven, you can ride this train for free 'Til that dream gets to Heaven, you can ride this train on me And we're gonna run so far they'll never find us again But I ain't leavin', I ain't leavin' 'less I'm leavin' here with you I've been patient while I waited, but I feel it's time to move You've been crying, yeah, I've seen you Honey, I've been crying too If your prayers don't get to Heaven, I'm gon' keep them safe for you If your prayers don't get to Heaven, I'm gon' keep them safe 'til they do 'Til they do 'Til they do 'Til they do

[@ivanviti404]

Thanks, man

[@garrettallain9343]

You rock bro, thanks for the lyrics.

[@elkboy]

When he sings about running so far away that the blues won't find him in the first verse; it almost feels like he knows that's not true/possible

[@XanderXel91]

God his lyrics man. Always incredible.

[@BassistBill1988]

I've had a rock hard man crush on this guy since '07, and it just keeps growing. No shame. He cannot write a bad song!

[@denisegatens1054]

Hes a genius is Brian ...keep them coming 👏

[@pauldacus4590]

The Ghost of Rod Stewart... P.S. WHY doesn't this have so many more views!?! Such a great song!

[@shaneb.3982]

I just posted a similar comment. I here Stewart all through this.

[@oneduelist]

This man is a musical genius.

[@aesstricker]

Who else can't wait until the acoustic version? I love that you get two songs in one with Brian Fallon.

[@metal9535]

Abigail Stricker for real? No lie it kinda bugs me lol. Instead of coming out with the next track he'll do a track, the music video for it, the acoustic, and two weeks after the acoustic he'll do another track. It's not bad it just feels like a padded release cycle...

[@aesstricker]

Booker Güdkush I don't know, I always fall in love with the original and then I hear it acoustic and its like a completely different song. Like Handwritten, the acoustic version is one of the most beautiful tracks I have ever heard, damn near makes me cry, but it's entirely different than the album track. I don't know, it just never stops amazing me how a song written and performed by the same person can feel so utterly different.

[@dtpiers6136]

Abigail Stricker wait, are we sure we're getting acoustic tracks for EVERY song? I feel like that was a one time thing.

[@aesstricker]

It's Brian Fallon, so no guarantees, but he has a pretty decent track record of doing acoustic versions

[@aesstricker]

He did an amazing live recording for Forget Me Not, so I hop he does a live studio acoustic for this one, too.

[@lisas.1126]

He never disappoints

[@sojajunge]

It's amazing how Brians sound changes, yet I still love every song that he's released! So excited to see him live again in Germany!

[@desolatesoul2304]

Changing? This still has that same Brian Fallon feel.

[@M500VYN]

Played yesterday on Steve Wright BBC Radio 2. Been humming it since 🤣

[@blinkMATIC]

I was just going through "Painkillers" and found there was new music from him. And now I'm hard.

[@jeremyweyant7360]

blinkMATIC me too

[@lendag861]

Who else can't wait until February for Sleepwalkers to be released?!

[@GreenIce101]

Lenda G I can't wait until I can see him live for the first time in April!

[@lendag861]

Jealous! I missed the show where Gaslight opened for Rise Against....needless to say I've been kicking myself for the last 6 years :'(

[@joeymccredie5908]

GreenIce101 I'll also be seeing him April. Where will you be seeing him?

[@owen5468]

preordered it! forget me not and if your prayers dont get to heaven are on replay until then

[@stephenr465]

One of the best live shows you'll ever see. Saw him at an outdoor show in about 105 degree weather and it was worth every second

[@waynebrotherwayne9941]

This guy makes good music! Positive messagges as well!

[@ohweatherlyparade1513]

I get chills listening to this 💗

[@TheHEROFamily]

Found this song and artist by pure randomness. But man can this dude sing and bring it. Love this song. It has an old school feel to it with powerful lyrics with a jazzy beat.

[@grittygator]

Your music really makes everything better.

[@recklesscoast]

Only just discovered this amazing tune! What the hell!?! 😍

[@shaneb.3982]

He reminds me of a present day Springsteen/Rod Stewart mix. I love how he is able to adapt to different music styles.

[@joachimzach9466]

I'm falling in love again and again and again... Great song!!!

[@natecallens]

Brian Fallon's music makes everything a little bit better :) I love every single song he's put out, whether it's his solo stuff or with his awesome band The Gaslight Anthem. There are few singer-songwriters this great!

[@aspen1713]

Just when I thought I couldn't find peace or happiness anywhere. This honestly kept me alive today. I needed this. Thank you so much, Brian.

[@nicholasthill4356]

Aspen Calloway if you ever need someone to talk to this random stranger will listen and care a hell of a lot about anything going on.

[@aspen1713]

Ah I didn't think this comment would get noticed. ; ___ ; I'm actually tearing up reading your reply. Thank you, it's very much appreciated.

[@aspen1713]

Although unfortunately I don't think there's any way to slide in your KZbin DMs and talk to you :'D

[@nicholasthill4356]

I wish there was some way to. Some how we'll talk

[@aspen1713]

Do you have Insta? :'D That's basically the only social media I have, I'm @tigerribs

[@Rucin1993]

AMAZING! CANT WAIT FOR ACOUSTIC! TRUE FAN FROM POLAND SINCE 2009!!!

[@Cri977]

If Your Prayers Don't Get To... STACY!!!

[@birdsinwinter]

I love this song and I love Brian Fallon but this is one of the coolest E-Surance commercials I’ve seen.

[@goldenageenthusiast]

*spoiler alert* Brian recorded an incredible song.

[@saulreyes2976]

Just found it wow great song

[@chillscsiport]

so nice song bro

[@alecpalmer10]

You can't tell me this sounds strikingly similar to "You're the One That I Want"...but i absolutely love it

[@Freiheit1232]

Absolutely love this album so far

[@maralarkin2922]

Brian! I saw you once in Montreal when you were with Gaslight Anthem and I knew I instantly had to see you live again! And when I do, I hope to god I hear this song live. Keep it up with the talent! I'm absolutely in love with this song and all the rest.

[@95MidnightStar]

And he did it again, with him, even the extreme atheist gets to believe in God.

[@FullersFigures]

Another great track. Brian's lyrics are always incredible. I can't wait to see him play Dublin in March. On my birthday no less!

[@laylachannel4439]

So excited to be taking the love of my life to see this man perform in Seattle! Can't wait for her to finally realize why I get in random arguments with people about how damn talented he is :) Amazing song and can't wait for the new album

[@oregonflatland]

You must be a liar because no one can argue against Brian Fallon's talent.

[@GoodOldDaysGaming]

Pretty sure people's ears are broken, because it's impossible to hate Brian.

[@filipbichlarsson9121]

He's back for sure

[@bringmethesmarticles]

Was not expecting this kind of sound!! Very cheery

[@alxtb52]

I've recently starting running again after a very long hiatus.. the whole album is my playlist.. but the whole first verse gets me going it's so motivating.. i'm gonna run so far they'll never find me again.

[@neavehallford4207]

[@SPYNOS78]

Great, great song... again. Truly enjoying your sound. Can’t wait for the full new album and to play it on repeat like I have done (and am still doing) with Painkillers. See you in the Melkweg in Amsterdam, Brian. 🤘🏻🙂🎸

[@feathers1583]

[@mathburn1]

Love this song. Listen like ten times a day.

[@aesstricker]

I swear there is a Protomen influence in this song, I love it!

[@dejanjelicic1577]

It reminds me of "You Can't Hurry Love" by The Supremes when he starts to sing, also the rhythm. Good song though

[@1dree1]

I'm walkin on suuunshine wooohooo nah, just kiddin - I like it :) nice one!

[@1dree1]

[@christophecarpentier9797]

Geez, this man can do no wrong. There was always a few Gaslight Anthem tracks I didn't like on each album, but this I'm gonn' listen till kingdom come.

[@infineontrode]

I'd like to hear Brian Fallon singing with Bob Mould. A cover already be enough!

[@gabejudy9529]

God damn he did it again!

[@frankcasale4334]

[@johnwanner3653]

they just announced a 10 year of The 59 Sound show in New York with some type of tour or shows after. They are playing the album in it's entirety.

[@johnwanner3653]

10 year anniversary that is.

[@BobRobertAdams]

I don't, like sure they were good but to me Brian Fallon's way better alone, shit like this is brilliant

[@fpvcaddy7072]

Which four Divvy's disliked this song big tut

[@pmc1649]

I really like sausages but I like Brian's music more.

[@mrcauduro]

Sounds like its straight from the "Grease" soundtrack, I love it!!

[@masmantour]

mrcauduro My mom showed me the song where the chick is singing "won't you be my man," and it sounds just like this.

[@saygerholcomb8050]

I wanted him to come in rapping on that outro.

[@stereocandy]

his vocal style is anti-digital. a lost art.

[@alborit123]

Someone else believe that this song sounds like "let it grow" from the movie the lorax ?
