Mountain Man - Babylon (Yours Truly Session)

[@LauraChorba]

So nice to hear real voices that can really sing -

[@HolyHammer87]

Love it. This has always been one of my favorite rounds, and you do it very well. The east coast approves.

[@Foil4life]

My son is 3 now, I play him this and sing to him at bedtime. Zion is a name for utopia, the promised land, or heaven on earth. Babylon being those in control of our world and the system that makes it hard for us to achieve Zion state as a whole, for all of humanity. Thats what I ment in my prior comment below,. Not a biblical point of view as much as just an era of peace love and equality for all. Which isnt exactly what this psalm is talking about, but I do love the harmonies and my son Zion loves to hear his name sung in such harmony and see the beautiful women. Beautiful in a soul sense, not just physically. It is beautiful to watch and hear this

amelia meath stealin' my heart

[@michaeltrustnohara5251]

My favorite song off the album. Beautiful

[@joemac7690]

I like names that sound like words.Meath sounds like mirth. It has vapors of mirthiness. Amelia is awesome.

[@Gabbbuh]

[@SantaCruzHappy1]

[@anastasijakokovic3565]

Rounds are usually kind of boring, but there is something about their voices that makes it interestnig.

[@averageguye]

YES

[@zionariley4117]

Is it just me or does this melody and the way it interacts with itself remind anyone of the melody and chords of Dido's Lament?

[@laimaravillon895]

ME! I had dido's lament on repeat in my mind all the evening after I heard this song for the first time! Well into the shower and nighttime.

[@dazzra777]

Love you ladies

[@Foil4life]

We love this, our son's name is Zion, he is 6 months old. He and his generation will bring back "Zion" , and end Babylon for good. Beautiful song, these girls are angelic. =D

TheCrackFox1997 In the beginning they put in paranthesis, (psalms 137) It's not just a song, my dear.

[@ericschrantz52]

+marc-defranco Psalm 137. While in captivity, the Jews wept by the rivers of Babylon-Because of sorrow, they could not bear to sing the songs of Zion. 1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. 2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. just as a reference

[@Christsyde777]

haha, I'm not a zionist, lol, I must have had some herb when I heard and wrote. .. was feeling it deep!

[@wowthtsgood]

It's not conspiracy, it's in the bible.. so it's prophecy.

[@dootsey]

-_- uhhhh yeeeah

[@hugosalvadorsanchez]

Pero, ¿por qué habláis de cosas tan extrañas?. Es una canción que entra dentro de la tradición europea medieval. Y, por cierto, con muy bellas voces.

[@michaeltrustnohara5251]

woow

[@montauk47]

this song should've been in Moonrise Kingdom.

[@blanket101]

sweet

[@Twellsing]

What's she singing at the end as she goes into the trees? It's pretty.

[@Nocturnaloner]

I always wondered this. Now I have an idea. I read a 2018 interview with Amelia and Nick (Sylvan Esso) in the News Observer. Amelia sings all the time, habitually, sort of narrating the bits of her life. I can't make out any words, but the last part of each line might be "on the ground". She's vocalizing what's going through her mind as she walks down the hill. That's my best guess.

[@Pferreira0021]

So beautiful...

[@blackswanpussy5287]

this is fu**in the shit. makes me wanna move to the mountains and go to church, till i saw the golden gate bridge WTF

[@Friendswobenefits]

I'm going to go do something epic now.

[@eddieramos9811]

what was it?

[@AdenosinePush]

Late Renaissance much?

[@imagomonkei]

Are they Jewish?

[@gwenlanter4243]

Make up!

[@m.declay3219]

These are artists. Not models. And I'm glad I managed to stumbled upon something so ethereal. If you're only interest with music is personal appearance, check out what Taylor Swift or Ariana Grande are doing now a days.

[@gwenlanter4243]

M. Declay We're you watching the same video I was watching, dear?

[@gabyjimenez125]

Are you saying they need make up?

[@ashleygrayduncan]

Jesus you guys she's saying that the band needs to make up, as in reconcile to keep playing beautiful music!!

[@gwenlanter4243]

Are you saying they don't?

[@courtandspark86]

Ummm isn’t this from @blogotheque??
