I'm an alcoholic, this song means so very much to me. The subtle nuances of the lyrics hit me hard. This is really really relevant to me. I went to my first AA meetings last night and tonight and I keep listening to this song over and over.
Yeah, I've been sober 9 years. When I got sober people thought it was strange listening to music like this, on this subject. It reminds me of who I am and the reasons why I stopped. The only advice that helped me was to stay busy and find something you love doing because if you get bored or you give your mind time to wander, people like us will find something to fill the void. Keep busy and keep remembering the bad times and the trouble we caused when we drank. The disease wants to remember the good times like you can get them back, but those good times are long gone and they aren't ever coming back. Good Luck and I hope you stick with it. The first 6 months are hard but it progressively gets easier.
And to pass it off into the world. One of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. Happy that a local band covered it and I have been able to see it live.
I was having this nice conversation with a canadian folk on Omegle but my shitty Internet went off on the wrong hour. He presented me to this nice hell of a song and we chatted for about an hour. I hope you stay rocking on, Lindsay, you're a good man, even thought the both of us drink too much. Cheers from Brazil, buddy! I hope we meet again someday! See you, Space Cowboy.
I listen to this at least once a month and have for many years, they have two of the best records of songwriting put out by any band I know, heartbreaking stuff.
Saw them in Nice / France last year, and been chatting and drinking a couple of beers with some of them before and after gig. They're really playing good music, and the guys just very cool. Hope to see them again one day
Lyrical phrasing is WOW- I’m so happy to hear this song- The emotion is so strong that I believe,, Whoever said that “he the singer” is drinking too much is “correct “
You met me when I was high Higher than the other guys Theres always something that you wanted to be Everybody wanted to be me Smooth like silk, quiet like darkness Shinin' with light 'n' standin' on sparkles Some get burned and some shine Please pour me another wine I'm not the guy you perceive You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much You know I can never believe You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much Go on, pack your bags 'n' leave You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much Some things I, I cannot, I can see though, hey! And you tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah! You met me when I was dancin' I was out on the floor 'n' just trancin' All the girls like funny guys Somethings changin' and I dont know why Everything I touch turns to shit But you were the exception to it I'm not crazy, just a little bit tense An you tell me that I'm drinkin' too much yeh I'm not the guy you perceive You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much You know I can never believe You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much Go on, pack your bags 'n' leave You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much Some things I, I cannot, I can see though, hey! You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah! I get it, I hear it all the time, yeah! You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah! Knew, I can't help me, I love all my wine You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much You know I even get it from my friends You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah! Don't you think I know it myself You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeahhh!
I wish I'd known of you guys sooner, can only feel like the worlds been hiding your greatness from me, dammit your amazing and I can only make it up by listening to every song a million times o.O
A song that personifies current life. Tic toc tic toc goes life but fuck I can't stop, the brews are too good and the music melts in my ears. I hope it was worth it my friends. Cheers.
he can't even conceive what it means to drink to much then at the end he ginally admits that he known all along, what a stark transition from hubris to humility, so powerful
this is one of the most amazing songs i have ever heard and i am stoked i can go down the road and get pissed and sing along whenever they play.how it isnt huge i will never know but thats the way i like it.fucken unreal
What a song, what a voice and from the drummer no less. Sorta reminds me of levon helm. Except these lads had to pack up and fuck off back to w.a. each time. Anyone know what happened to them?

The best song no one has ever heard... I love it.
James Leg does a cover that is awesome in its own way
That is until Spotify puts it on my discover weekly playlist the James Leg version and boom I’m down the rabbit hole! What a track
pretty proud of my dad for making such a classic.
And to pass it off into the world. One of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. Happy that a local band covered it and I have been able to see it live.
You have an awesome Dad 😊 x
Best song 👏 never ages … ❤
I’ve seen The Kill Devil Hills perform this live numerous times. I feel blessed.
Oath
Fuckin' love it! Timeless. This song is an anthem in our circle.
Same in mine, so good :)
+1 we used to get drunk and sing, got a lot of people hooked on it
RTR poll 3rd best song ever written by a WA group. An unbelievable tune and still gets me every time.
I love this song so much, I just wish it didn’t make me think of my dad.
I still love this song so much ! And remember the fun nights seeing your band live !
I don’t drink anymore …. But it’s an anthem ❤

Lyrical phrasing is WOW-
I’m so happy to hear this song-
The emotion is so strong that I believe,,
Whoever said that “he the singer” is drinking too much is “correct “
You met me when I was high
Higher than the other guys
Theres always something that you wanted to be
Everybody wanted to be me
Smooth like silk, quiet like darkness
Shinin' with light 'n' standin' on sparkles
Some get burned and some shine
Please pour me another wine
I'm not the guy you perceive
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
You know I can never believe
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
Go on, pack your bags 'n' leave
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
Some things I, I cannot, I can see though, hey!
And you tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah!
You met me when I was dancin'
I was out on the floor 'n' just trancin'
All the girls like funny guys
Somethings changin' and I dont know why
Everything I touch turns to shit
But you were the exception to it
I'm not crazy, just a little bit tense
An you tell me that I'm drinkin' too much yeh
I'm not the guy you perceive
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
You know I can never believe
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
Go on, pack your bags 'n' leave
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
Some things I, I cannot, I can see though, hey!
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah!
I get it, I hear it all the time, yeah!
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah!
Knew, I can't help me, I love all my wine
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much
You know I even get it from my friends
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeah!
Don't you think I know it myself
You tell me that I'm drinkin' too much, yeahhh!
Thank you!!
Isn't it: "You saw something that you wanted to be."?
I wish I'd known of you guys sooner, can only feel like the worlds been hiding your greatness from me, dammit your amazing and I can only make it up by listening to every song a million times o.O
I love this song

I had no idea this wasn't a James Leg original. Far out.
Great song and great video, Go fellas go. Ian looks like a bum hahaha
