“Heartless Year (Acoustic)”, is a new take on the band's hope-filled Summer-sing-along rocker, with down-home, back-porch instrumentation and textures which place the lyrics and melody out front.
On the heels of the breakthrough success of The Band of Heathens’ ninth studio album, Simple Things (2023, BOH Records), founding members Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist had an idea to go back into the studio and distill the songs down further into stripped away acoustic versions and aptly have titled it, Simpler Things.
Heartless Year
Gordy Quist/Ed Jurdi
I heard you never get dealt more than you can handle
But this might be it, you know we’ve had our doubts
The flicker of a flame from a dying candle
You said you’d never be the one to put it out
The light I see at the end of the tunnel’s
Either daylight creeping or a fast train coming
Good Lord have a little mercy please
It’s been a heartless year, but we’re still hanging on
Gonna face our fears, gonna right these wrongs
I gotta laugh to hold back my tears
Crawling from a train wreck waiting out a heartless year
Dishes in the sink building up resentment
Stacks of bills hiding out for weeks
The kids keep asking when it’s gonna be Christmas
But I’d be happy with the coal for the heat
The light I see at the end of the tunnel’s
Either daylight creeping or a fast train coming
Good Lord have a little mercy please
It’s been a heartless year, but we’re still hanging on
Gonna face our fears, gonna right these wrongs
I gotta laugh to hold back my tears
Crawling from a train wreck waiting out a heartless year
A heartless year
The light I see at the end of the tunnel’s
Either daylight creeping or a fast train coming
Good Lord have a little mercy on me
It’s been a heartless year, but we’re still hanging on
Gonna face our fears, gonna right these wrongs
I gotta laugh to hold back my tears
Crawling from a train wreck waiting out a heartless year
A heartless year, waiting out a heartless year
The light I see at the end of the tunnel’s
Either daylight creeping or a fast train coming

Soft younger kid rock vibe…nice harmony too. Good job. 10 years from now I’m gonna say, “yeah! I knew The Band of Heathens back in 23!” 😎

One day at a time all year long ....

Reminds me of a joke: Why are New Yorkers always so depressed and gloomy? Because the light at the end of the tunnel is New Jersey. :)
