Watchhouse - "Golden Embers" (Live)

[@wendellbryant]

This is the most beautiful song by two beautiful people.

[@mikecox5176]

My wife and I lost our only son at the age of 19. Always a joy to be around and a heart of golden embers to everyone he met. Today I relish those memories and lessons learned. I often am saddened by his absence but uplifted by the life of caring, love and concern that he modeled for us. Wisdom and God's direction isn't dictated by age but our readiness and willingness to do his will here on earth. Taylor your life was a testament to just how much you live on in the hearts of many. Watchhouse/Mandolin Orange thank you for reminding me of this every time I listen to this song.

Lost my wife to cancer, at the young age of 39. My heart goes out to all those looking for peace. May this song guide us all and refresh our minds, as we remember our losses.

[@norskibull2.021]

So Very sorry for the loss of your wife, cancer is absolutely horrible. My prayers go out to you and your loved ones. May your days be filled with beautiful memories of all the good times and give you strength to carry on, which is what she’d want until the time comes to reunite once again on the souls forever journey…. I just lost my beautiful young cousin to it the other night, was only 43, She fought so hard. May they both be resting in paradise, out of their pains, no more suffering, we will see them again. Hang in there…peace be with you

Very interesting. Walking through a cemetery has a soothing effect on my soul. It's a way to connect to eternity it seems. And if it's in a place you haven't visited before, to connect to the people who once built the community. Like when I found Harriet Pullens grave hidden away at a hill in Skagway, Alaska.

Been a fan of mandolin orange for about 4 years now. None of my friends understand how powerful and amazing their music is. Bought two tickets to a show in buffalo in 2019, no one would come because they wouldn't believe me when I said it will be amazing. Lost out on the $70 for the one ticket then I drove 3 and a half hours there and back to buffalo on a Sunday night and watched the show by MYSELF. I've been to alot of concerts in my life and this one was my top by far. Mandolin Orange is amazing all around, they can seriously turn my day around in 1 song.

[@juliemeacham8503]

I saw them on 1/23/2020 in Austin. Earlier in the day, I had my 2nd round of chemo. When I bought 2 tickets several months before, I didn't know I had breast cancer. I wasn't sure I would be able to go, so didn't invite anyone. At the last minute, I decided to try and make it. So glad I did. I gave my extra ticket away to someone in the ticket line. I had to sit down throughout the show, but it was so worth it to go. I have loved their music for years. I was not only going through chemo, but a bunch of other stuff, too. Their music is powerful.

Her legacy will thrive through me and my two kids, her grandchildren. She was an amazing person who lived life with a wild abandonment when she painted when she danced or sang. She was my Mother ❤ She was my Person, She was my Hero. The love we share is bigger than the universe itself, stronger than Atoms, and as resilient as time. It's forever ♥️ Love you Mom

[@leighboschen3399]

Please take heart my brother. !!! If you’ve read the Lords Prayer, you will remember where it says ‘thy Kingdom come’ thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.. this Kingdom is VERY real and is a government .. God has not forgotten his original purpose for the earth or his purpose for mankind.. when Jesus was here on earth he preached and taught all he could come across about God and His Kingdom.. his miracles he performed was a prélude of what was to come at a future time .. we are in the last days that the Bible talks of .. there will be a resurrection after the coming Great War of Armageddon … the issue of whose ‘right’ to rule will be settled once and for all time thruout eternity … Jehovah God will be vindicated at this time forever.. the conditions under this kingdom will be like no other in mans history … read Isaiah chapter 65… Rev. 2: 3,4 talks about death being gone n pain will be no more, the former things will be gone away.. I do hope this gives a new outlook for you , it does me and many of my friends … feel free to reply if you like .. we must have something solid these days just to get thru the days now…

I am just listening to this for the first time this morning. I lost my mother to lung cancer on Xmas Eve. I laid beside her and comforted her as she took her last breaths. The Cadillac gave her a ride shortly after as well. I went through a month as we waited for my stepfather own battle with cancer to also meet the end of his journey....I don't know if you guys understand how deeply this song hit me, and seeing the date it was released and posted here lines up with the final days of any real sound interaction before my mother's rapid decline and shutting in. Golden embers hits me too, her and I allways had our tradition of taking all the wrapping paper and boxes from Xmas and having a little bonfire, enjoying the brisk holiday night watching the tiny golden embers lift up and float away into the night. Not to mention correlations of being burned and the long battle with chemo and radiation. Blah blah blah I could go on and on at all this amazing song has stirred in me. It is absolutely beautiful. Thank you, so, so very much for this.

Lennie McKim Tonight This evening was exceptional for many reasons: THIS... my first ever introduction to Mandolin Orange!! Had it not been for my brother suggesting this musical encouragement to help me through some difficult news of today, I may never have experienced such beautiful instrumentation nor lyrics.. At nearly 77 years of age, I'm somewhat embarrassed for my lack of music knowledge! I always enjoyed music, however, little of today's "noise" resonates with me due to 58 years of deafness (another deep-in-my-soul reason "Golden Embers" affected me as it did). BlueTooth helps immensely, especially when the closed captions are sorely lacking. Although sad and heart-wrenching, "Golden Embers" soothed me through this evening. What I was able to hear was pure delight and felt within my very soul. I owe appreciation to my brother for suggesting posts in which the viewers included the lyrics; these, I will remember. My sincere Thank you to Pablo Pasati and Wyld Heart for graciously posting the lyrics to this lovely song. It meant everything!

This Song is a Spiritual Support Group for the Hurting SOULS who have lost a beautiful LOVE in a cold and chaotic world. The words and music remind me of my SWEET and Beautiful Aunt Gena, who was an angelic country music vocalist,a fantastic mama and a loving wife. She went to Hallelujah Square to be with the LORD on this day, 20 years ago. It's hard to believe that our family has made it so many steps, one before the other for so very days and months and years on Earth void of her sweet company and thoughtful light . But that's just how it is. One DAY at a TIME SWEET JESUS, until Time is just a memory surrounded by new music that we write and sing about it with her ❤️. What a JOY it is to have been BLESSED with the GIFT of such a unique and AWESOME LIFE that shaped who I am today. The Songs DO remember WHEN. The music does remind us WHO. And the brightness of those glowing embers of rememberance shine our WAY to WHERE we will all harmonize together again.

In memory of my beloved Mother Just like an old friend, kinder than expected That Cadillac came and gave our girl a ride Loss has no end, it binds to our connection We don't speak of it, we don't even try If you could help me to share the trouble that you've got burning in you, then you can help me, and in our time together, her memory will ever Shine like golden embers in the night I miss the old hymns when she used to sing The sparrows spread their mortal wings Now they've all lighted with the silence of strings Like notes on the pages, she breathed life into all things If you could help me to share the trouble that you've got burning in you, then you can help me, and in our time together, her memory will ever Shine like golden embers in the night Just like an old friend, reach out to me Bathe me in the light of understanding Try to help me to share the trouble that you've got burning in you, then you can help me, and in our time together, her memory will ever Shine like golden embers in the night

My wife and I lost her Dad last Christmas Eve 2019. I loved my father in law so much. He was smart, artistic, and always ready for adventure. He was 66, laughed hard at a joke, turned blue and just died at the dinner table all of a sudden. That was that. He'd battled two abdominal aneurysms and several invasive surgeries over the past decade, so his health wasn't great. The paramedics all looked at our family like they somehow failed at their job, even though Ronny was gone before we could pick up a phone. They arrived in less than five minutes, despite being a rural volunteer outfit on Christmas Eve. In lieu of flowers, Ronny's deep wealth of friends all donated to the local first responders unit. At least 100 people stood outside on the rawest New England winter morning with freezing rain pelting them for his two hour Roman Catholic service, because the church was already full. I've been to a few funerals in my life, and Ronny sure as shit was the guy to draw a sold out crowd under the worst weather possible. He would have loved it. I stumbled across this song a few days ago and my wife and I shared a few tears together. Thank you for such an elegant and artful expression of grief that helped my wife and I immensely. This song is steeped in timeless wisdom. Thank you.

[@samanthacronin8638]

Sorry for your loss. But what a beautiful tribute to your father in law, to the paramedics, your community and this transcendent song.

[@foxfirerevival9892]

Man, that fiddle always give me chills haha. So good, yall. Keep bringing this beautiful music into the world.

[@kentkarlsson8277]

My wife Kersti found this gem before we did a 4 state trip to the south, (Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina) absolutely magic to have there music as our travel companion 6 years ago

I miss the old hymns That she used to sing. The sparrows spread their mortal wings. And they they've all lighted With the silence of strings. Like notes on the pages She breathed life into all things... Some of the finest lyrics ever penned....

[@tnjed3316]

I heard you play this last night at the Ford for the first time. There aren't many songs that get close to capturing the feeling of losing our son, but this rings true for me. The grief receded years ago only to be replaced by thoughts of "what might have been." I take comfort in these bittersweet reminders, they remind me he is not forgotten. Thank you.

[@ericbombardiermusic8888]

Is there a better way to remember someone than to write such a powerful song, sing it with the perfect duo and have it listened by millions of people?

[@discoveryman59]

That's some OLD SOUL talent right there!!! I really hope these people know how GOOD they really are! It makes an old man proud there's real talent in the world today!!

[@frozemoments7873]

The haunting, backbeat sound and twang of knowledge that drips in between their voices, is real and floats like clouds into your soul....Beautiful!!!🥺

[@mistyprewett3484]

Sending strength your way. I'm clueless to the situation at hand but either way may I say .. I dont know you but I do have 3 little boys and I couldnt imagine not seeing them . I hope you have more time with him . if they only knew the love we have for them. 💙💙

I have a 32 year old son, our first born. There were years I did not see or speak with him. We did visit him in MN in August and spoke on Christmas. There is hope and Mandolin's Orange can be helpful. Grace to you whatever your situation w your son is.

[@stevenarkfeld3510]

Thank you for saying this. Going through something similar perhaps with each of my two daughters. It's so very hard. I wish you comfort and peace. Oh and Mandolin Orange, you two make beautiful, powerful music together that evokes strong feelings about the most important things in life. Thank you.
