Ben Howard - Oats in the water - The Walking Dead - Lyrics - HD

Song from The Walking Dead S04E05
Lyrics:
Go your way,
I'll take the long way 'round,
I'll find my own way down,
As I should.
And hold your gaze
There's coke in the Midas touch
A joke in the way that we rust,
And breathe again.
And you'll find loss
And you'll fear what you found
When weather comes
Tearing down
There'll be oats in the water
There'll be birds on the ground
There'll be things you never asked her
Oh how they tear at you now
Go your way,
I'll take the long way 'round,
I'll find my own way down,
As I should.
And hold your gaze
There's coke in the Midas touch
A joke in the way that we rust,
And breathe again.
And you'll find loss
And you'll fear what you found
When weather comes
Tearing down
There'll be oats in the water
There'll be birds on the ground
There'll be things you never asked her
Oh how they tear at you now

When they played this at the end of the scene after everybody was sick and turning and Hershel finally took a moment to sit on his bed in the cell and he just started crying.. that scene was one of the best from the whole show and this song just helped it hit your soul when I first saw it! Still the best show ever made!

[@user-vr5zk9ox8d]

So much disease and misery. Only so much one man can do to hold a world that’s falling apart together … The look in his eyes was one pondering why God has forsaken us. Even if it was only for a split second, that fear lingered. However, what was really profound to me is how he was able to find strength in others again; he was able to see God in the man who shared a final quote with him, he was able to console himself with Rick. … “Life was always a test, Rick.”

The Walking Dead is simply the best TV show ever. edit: Not sure I stand by what I said over 6 years ago anymore, but the show clearly had its ups and downs. Still love the Whisperer arc!

[@AidenKyoto]

***** My comment isn't related with Bear Mccreary as it is only music for the series to flow with. Secondly, no any other TV show affected me as much as The Walking Dead which is the reason why I'm considering it the best TV show yet. To be honest, Battlestar Galactica might have been good or still is, because that TV show progressed more than TWD. Wait for TDW to progress a couple of seasons further, I'm sure we'll both spot the difference. Personally, I like this genre of TV shows which is yet another reason why I claim The Walking Dead to be the best TV show and I know a great future of them series are ahead. All of it is just my opinion.

[@luchin0rtega]

The Walking Dead has the BEST music of any show out there. Not only the wonderful scores by Bear McCreary, but ALL the song contributions from various artists are simply awesome. They add class to a scene that sometimes the score doesn’t reach.

[@unknownspace404]

I really miss when they play music in some episodes, I don't remember when it stopped losing that magic, but for example, the scene of Shane in the car seeing the lone walker, I think it's one of the best scenes I've ever seen. What I have seen in a series is not a complex scene if we talk in terms of production, there is no need to do crowd effects or employ hundreds of extras or large CGI effects, just shots, silences, and transitions, and that with the music, the direction and the way everything is given is like a masterpiece.@@frankiefelinesalwayswelcom5825

I think the governor was absolutely the best villain of the show in my opinion. I think even better than Negan. I love that they showed the evil side of him and then the normal side of him after that. He was one of those villains that you hated and loved at the same time. You can’t believe how twisted he was but at the same time you could understand what drove him to this point.
