      Use of the word underrated says more about the commenter than the artist.

    This was released on my father's birthday over 10 years ago. He's no longer here but now I know why I find so much comfort in Gregory's voice. I miss my father so much and I can't wait to meet him again so we can listen to this together while looking out of Heaven's gate. I search for little pieces of him everywhere and I end up finding comforting things like these that make me think he really is looking out for me still.

    slept high up in the Rockies
    set my clock for californ-i-ey-aye
    and i dreamed up somethin’ special to give that ocean
    man, she cuffs me anyway
    so i’m banking on virginia
    to keep me clear and calm and straight
    just like clock work seems to tell us
    with every passing storm there’s just a harder hail
    so light my way, Virginia May
    i can’t sit still, just pace across this hallway
    we spent all this time
    just trading crimes,
    while the tune-smith packed a lunch,
    he’s headed down the coastline
    there’s a loneliness that’s blowin’
    well i heard it from the radio man
    he’s been locked up in the belfry
    listening close, to a string upon a can
    me, i’m sailin’ on to that savior,
    she’s a pilgrim living on the modern time
    and ever since i found her magic
    now every car or cloud that passes is a sign
    light my way, Virginia May
    i can’t sit still just pace across this hallway
    we spent all this time
    just trading crimes
    and i’m saving all my sleep for another life
    i’m saving all my sleep for another life.

    Every line in this song is like a work of art in and of itself. That said, I always hate to hear "I'm savin' all my sleep for another life" cause it means the song is almost over.

    Before this video, I didn't even know that there is a marker for the center of California. Of course, because there's the San Andreas Fault, that center could be ever moving. Enjoyed 'Virginia May' by Gregory Alan Isakov and Brandi Carlile on vocals.

    Excellent song . . . and a damned fine video . . . very well done! Nothing leaves me colder than an idiotic video made by someone who feels they have to reference every element of the song with matching visuals . . . in other words, 98% of the videos for songs on UA-cam . . . You have done a damned good job here friend . . . congrats!
