I listen to this multiple times a day

[@geodesy2009]

Can’t believe it’s been 9 years since I heard these two kids playing at a friends house in Chapel Hill. They’ve only gotten better and now are proud parents. They warmed my soul then and still do today.

[@louisevad6091]

This song and especially this version live, is a once in a life time recording. It captures the essence of the vocals and instruments intertwining around a beautiful poem of loss and hope. Thanks to Mandolin Orange and audiotree for sharing a special moment in life

[@I_am_Rosy]

That song gives me the goosebumps every time I hear and not in a bad way. Beautiful, utterly beautiful.

[@williamwillis1506]

I've been singing this song over and over again because it's brought me so much comfort lately as I lost my 106 year old grandmother on Friday night

[@djibrildiawara602]

Well, I've carried the world on my back with no more to obtain The fire in the sky-- a dim light in my eye that's long faded And I've stood where heroes have fallen their names turned to stone Yet I remain nameless, the best friend the hero has known Now I'm saving my strength for running These days I'm saving my strength for running From the age of kings when pride decided all fate Long before war machines took charge and I was still 'wake It was blind hope and blinders, with young men to carry between All the death and the glory; believin' they're one and the same Now I'm saving my strength for running These days I'm saving my strength for running Yes I've carried the world on my back with no more to obtain The sword and the shield perched upon saddles and reins But the stampedes of thunder, the cavalry's charge leaves me now Your last war will come but I can not follow you down No, I'm saving my strength for running These days I'm saving my strength for running I said these days I'm saving my strength for running

[@dillonorlando7710]

Pro trick: watch movies on flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies recently.

[@sawyerreign6628]

[@KeithChesterton]

Verse 2, line 2 - "Long before war machines took charge and I was TO WAKE" is what I hear.

[@breakneckburns]

I first found you guys from shazaming this song on a date with a girl back in the day, it was playing in a restaurant in New Zealand. Your music has stuck me until this day.. unlike the date 😂

[@400OTD]

[@markmarkivich7052]

Killer lyrics

[@jasonrivera8113]

The studio version of this song is great, but this version is absolute gold. Is there somewhere besides KZbin, so I can listen to it without burning so much data?

[@johnwduncan6707]

exquisite

[@nomandn3224]

[@guarddog318]

"From the age of kings, when pride decided all things," The damn shame of it all is that pride, vanity, and greed are still making too many decisions...

[@troytaylor9228]

This is the kind of song that all song writers fantasize about writing but never quite achieve! It is fun for most of the lives of most of the 'inept' but hopeful writers out there to try tho.

[@jasonmichael37]

Song about a war horse! Brilliant

[@jnairac]

[@tobyphillips4312]

Kevin Moore I actually never realised that and it makes total sense now! Thank you!

[@kevinmoore3198]

Toby Phillips. you're welcome

[@georgeallen5564]

There's a video of a live show where he says he was imagining a horse going into battle against Orcs in Lord of the Rings and that gave birth to this song.

[@johnhehir7876]

Momma's don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys

[@213spaceforce]

Most bands are better live. 🐐

[@magneto44]

[@vvgmhod4]

Another terrific performance compromised by amateurish videography.

[@mikerotz6302]

The song of the republican party.: D
