WILCO - SKY BLUE SKY

Oh, the band marched on in formation
The brass was phasing tunes I couldnt place
Windows open and raining in
Maroon, yellow, blue, gold and gray
The drunks were ricocheting
The old buildings downtown
Empty so long ago
Windows broken and dreaming
So happy to leave what was my home
With a sky blue sky
This rotten time
Wouldnt seem so bad to me now
Oh, I didnt die
I should be satisfied
I survived
That's good enough for now
With a sky blue sky
This rotten time
Wouldnt seem so bad to me now
Oh, if I didnt die
I should be satisfied
I survived
That's good enough for now

[@laurajeangraham3375]

This was my obsession when I left my husband. "I survived, that's good enough for now..." I still cry everytime...

[@iwillsailagain]

How you doing now Laura. I'm at 11:59 of my divorce. Listening to this on repeat tonight.

[@yvonneeaster]

I’m 0:24 mjs MF

[@beau00100]

It makes your life worth livin' when you here music like this.

[@elighhernandez6190]

Hear*

[@JuliaAnn9]

I LOVE Wilco, and this song....reminds me of the tiny little town where I grew up in Ohio.....

[@carocuth]

Third last line...he sings..."Should I be satisfied"....whatever...he can sing whatever the hell he wants. And this is a great example. What lovely melodies and lyrics. These guys are no sell-outs. They make music, they sing. The rest is up to us.

[@Sadpoppet]

I'm freakin obsessed with this song! Beautiful! I'd like to kiss him right on the mouth!!! I can relate in every way--"I didn't die I survived it's good enough for now..." Thankies!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidmckelvey2601]

Reminds me of the town I used to live in when I was very young in Maine. Weirdly enough, when I left that town, it went completely downhill.

[@jessestocktonmusic]

thank you wilco, this song has changed me and was there for me when i needed something to hold on to.

[@rsm2312]

my favorite album by them!

[@tmjmccormack]

Same Cuz

[@deglispiriti]

I remember crying when they played this at the Warsaw in Brooklyn. Windows open and/rainin' in...

[@ChesleyQ]

Such a perfect moment in love a bye. And touching and so sweet., Thank You Mr. Tweedy. ,

[@basselope1418]

i agree. but i can still remember fondly when they had that awesome lineup

[@123fuzzyhead]

[@cristianradiohead145]

Amo esta cancion... es muy melancolica. Por momentos hace llorar

[@JFernandoSosa]

Simplemente un pedazo del alma en una canción, gracias!

[@cristianradiohead145]

Inmensa cancion Gracias

[@ricardoledesma1414]

sky blue sky..great song!

[@liwowoli]

I'd like to see the audio of this song juxtaposed with Gene Kelly's Singin' in the Rain dance.

[@NanCollard]

So beautiful

[@JuanGun]

Oh, la banda marchó en formación El bronce eliminaba melodías que no podría colocar Las ventanas abiertas y lluvia en marrón, amarillo, azul, dorado y gris Los borrachos rebotaban Los viejos edificios del centro vacíos hace mucho tiempo Ventanas rotas y soñando tan feliz de dejar lo que fue mi hogar Con este cielo, azul cielo ahora podrido No parece tan malo para mí ahora Oh, yo no he muerto debería estar satisfecho sobreviví eso es suficiente por ahora Con este cielo, azul cielo ahora podrido No parece tan malo para mí ahora Oh, si yo no he muerto debería estar satisfecho sobreviví eso es suficiente por ahora

[@cristianradiohead145]

Gracias!. Hermosa y melancolica cancion

[@alonelycrow]

WOW

[@cquillen11]

Emmy Recommended

[@tiorodrigo6387]

Muito bom!

[@alarmclockradio905]

I'm really surprised by the sound of that lap steel. It really sounds like a pedal steel with all of the swells. He must be using a volume pedal or something.

[@austin78993]

It sounds so great. I love all the pedal/lap steel sounds of Wilco. Wish more bands used em

[@marcosjeofla]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@minerva28]

Oh, I didn't die I should be satisfied I survived That's good enough for now

[@christhee68]

that's the Jeff Tweedy model Breedlove. There were only 25 built.

[@HurricaneForceGaming]

Skinny Jeff, and John had hair. Wow.

[@honor_faith_transform]

15 years ago. 😐

[@kevinlofaso7710]

The lyrics in the post are wrong for this performance: He's singing "IF I didn't die, SHOULD I be satisfied? I survived, it's good enough for now."

[@didje74]

boon dia!!

[@JuliaAnn9]

go Nils!

[@zachweaver3006]

If this is dad rock then dad rocks the shit

[@ShawnByrneSound]

Holy cow. Tweedy is looking a lot like Neil Young there. Great fucking band.

[@SecsSells]

Everything in life changes. Not the same? No. Better or worse? Subjective.

[@Theaircraftguy]

This was playing in Starbucks, thanks to Shazam!!

[@winggoddess]

would be a good song to play during a scene where a person is lying paralyzed from the neck down in a hospital bed after getting into a car accident due to the person's drunkenness.

[@Bruciatodalsole]

always better

[@anakristinacajayon7941]

That’s 12yers ago

[@TheRRadio]

FNL

[@warmstringcheese]

this...is...my...favorite...band....ever. i think i know why WILCO is (unbelievably) low-key. because mainstream is just the opposite of them. mainstream is for the distasteful, sheepish masses. this band is for us few, true listeners.

[@FrenchPotato661]

FUCKING WILCO MAN!

[@ripentheconclave]

you can see some fans taking this opportune lull in the show to go grab a beer. fools!

[@hannibal3blue]

Nels.

[@buckwats]

brazis fazin toonses i couldnt place.

[@pitol678]

Random but does anyone know what kind of lap steel he is playing?

[@basselope1418]

Wilco just isn't the same without Jay Bennett. He was the pop sensibility that Tweedy needs, imo. RIP Jay.

[@briarhillgirl]

lots of room for all kinds of music...if you can do anybetter ,then do it!!

[@snap0r4z]

strange cause first time, I found this song quiet boring, now I can't actually take off this album from my strereo..

[@justinhardt1]

@11xzxzxz Then why did one of the smartest men alive, Albert Einstein, believe in a God? Your logic is flawed, oh smart one.

[@michaelbryan5910]

One of the most boring songs I've ever heard. Surprised the audience didn't bring snuggies and pillows.

[@Elduderino9097]

Your comment is boring. Wilco is awesome. You are not.
