I hope he knows this song has saved my life more times than I can count. His music always helps me

[@Graciegrans]

I can relate on so many levels

[@anapaulalopes4963]

This highway's dark and empty. Just miles and miles of endless road. I've got a sickness pounding in my head. I'm at the mercy of the ghost. What will it take to live as if I would not another day? To live without despair, and to be without disdain. How can I instill such hope, but be left with none of my own? What if I could sing just one song and it might save somebody's life? I sought after, after reasons to stay. I was lost, I was lost. Then the sky turned black, And the rains poured down. I was waiting, waiting to be found oh, no. How can I instill such hope, but be left with none of my own? What if I could sing just one song and it might save somebody's life? Then I would sing, all that I could sing 'Cause that is when, when I feel that I'm not just counting time. Oh when I sing all that I can sing Maybe just for a moment things would seem all right. Oh when I sing, oh when I sing yeah Oh when I sing, oh when I sing

Horse was Dallas's very close friend.. He helped City and Colour write some truly incredible music we so love today. RIP Horse, may you rest in peace.

[@yuribraga2575]

@John B He died in a scuba dive incident.

[@jesseg7926]

This is the song that helped me beat cancer. I hope I can thank Dallas in person one day.

[@thomasbakke6677]

That tone. Those lines. The sincerety. The presence. The clarity. It affects me. Normally nothing does. Only the way true art can...yes.

[@christopher-miles]

i think his matchless' sound nicer. i'm guessing they didn't pay him enough to backline one hahaha

[@j.a.reynolds3632]

Saw him play this song live just like this - only him & his electric. No one moved or spoke. Entire crowd was mesmerized, just like this group. This man pulls you in & squeezes your heart with his beautiful talent and lyrics.

[@lucebuck]

This song saved my life more than once. It always helped me during the most terrible moments in my life. Just like today. Thank you Dallas. ❤

[@finalbreath15]

To think of all the lives Dallas has probably saved. I know his music is something that is always gonna pierce right through me. Never gonna forget seeing him live. Been listening for about 10 years and his music still holds a special place in my heart. ♡

[@MariaDiRuscio]

Deep stuff. Incredible the impact music has on people. Music means something different to everyone. This is heavy for me

[@gabrielafrancisca261]

come to Brazil, we love you

[@lonnypaalman3805]

That guitar, that voice!

[@TOOL-22]

Outstanding performance 👏🏼

[@roadkillanonymous4807]

I could count on one hand the number of songs that speak to me like this

[@Rymats-up8wp]

I don't know how to put into words how this performance of this song moves me...every single time I listen to it...and I've listened to it...ALOT! Thank you Dallas Green and Godspeed, Horse.

[@ConnorDMoody]

One of the few artists I would pay to go see again. So genuine. ❤️
