I can't count the number of times I've listened to this track. A few months ago I drove by myself to Montana to lay my grandfather to rest, and I have a playlist of dark country along with several others, for when the radio cuts out on the road. Montana's mountains and prairies told me to replay this track over and over and I couldn't say no. Lots of people came here for a video game; I came here to remember Jerry, the Blue-Eyed Injun, the Man Who Helped Build Poulson.

[@davidreynolds2740]

Montana makes all music personal! Sorry about our grandfather. Cherish the memories.

[@lastsight5138]

[@Froggyman145]

If I understand this song right, the man is going on one last job, and knows it will cost him his life. He doesn't want his daughter to get the idea that if she kills herself after his death, she'll be reunited with him in the afterlife.

[@Alex-dd8lz]

It's a good interpretation if looking at the victims of the pale rider, but overall the song is a love letter to Clint eastwood (the name of the song coming from the film "pale rider" and "the man with no name" being the "name" of Clint Eastwoods character in "the good, the bad and the ugly", "a fistful of dollars" aswell as "a few dollars more "

BTW, the 'pale rider' is the last rider of the apocalypse, AKA death

[@hunterpowers317]

Death, the Last Rider of the Apocalypse, was also the inspiration for the movie PALE RIDER, starring and directed by Clint Eastwood, who was perhaps most famous for his role as THE MAN WITH NO NAME in the "Dollars" trilogy, a series of gunslinging adventures taking place DOWN IN MEXICO. Clint Eastwood in his role as the Outlaw Josie Wales, also told a bounty hunter that "DYING AINT NO WAY TO MAKE A LIVING boy". Josie Wales was my second favorite Eastwood role.. my most favorite Eastwood role was that of Willian Munney in the film UNFORGIVEN.. He played an aged and seemingly reformed gunfighter who had A JOB TO DO, the job of killing these two traveling cowboys on account of they cut up a young whore's face one night in a saloon altercation. Classics, all of them! Films and characters that other artists would pay homage to for years and years to come!

Clint Eastwood is one of most beautiful man on Earth, imho.
