A beautiful song by a Native American artist from the Colville Reservation. Dedicated to anyone who has ever wanted to escape to or from the past, present, or future at any given time.
One of my favorite songs! This particular view being best for me. Long time now! Long story`~ as usual. But it's ok! Thank You ... Thank You ... Thank You ... xo
To everyone who must pack and travel, for whatever reasons. For all the modern gypsies who work so hard and make it appear so easy. For those who joke about endless parties when the greatest gift would be a good night's sleep... to everyone who can't just sit at home and read a book. To all who've succeeded and lost and had to struggle to rebuild, here is a song that was written for every one of us by people who've been there and know how much we'd all love a peaceful ride.
O4MSCENTRUM I SHALL ALWAYS REMEMBER THIS VOICE, THESE SONGS... FIRST HEARD A SHY GUY AT THE OLD! AUNTIE'S BOOKSTORE, PLAYING A FEW CHORDS FOR SHERMAN ALEXIE READING---- HE GREW INTO A BRILLIANT,ENCOURAGING VOICE, FOR ALL. BLESS HIM. HE WAS A GREAT GIFT. MISSED NOW AND ALWAYS..... RIP DEAR SINGER,POET, FATHER, MUSICAL WONDER..... JUNE 24, 2016
Il y a quelque chose à propos de cette chanson - je ne sais pas. Il capture la façon dont nous, les mal-aimés, trouver l'amour dans le monde des Caucasiens. Nous sommes un million de miles de là où nous étions depuis la colonisation. Cette chanson est sacrée. Il aide les gens indigineous qui marchent entre deux mondes pour trouver leur chemin.
Indeed, on the great soundtrack from the phenomenal movie "Smoke Signals". Credits for composition seem to be shared by Jim Boyd and Sherman Alexie. I've also seen music by Jim Boyd and Lyrics by Sherman Alexie. Whatever the case, these are great artists who worked together and created a masterpiece. How anyone can listen to this song and not identify times when they've felt exactly this way, I do not know.
even years later I still feel as if I'm riding each breath of this song bareback on my soul. it truely is the power of the word. hello from Cali and the Wiyot n.d.n.
A million miles away...... let's start a Fire and survive it~ So much meaning and emotion throughout this beautiful song~ Ashoge' rezerella I keep coming back to it over and over again.
One of my favorite things about Smoke Signals was the inclusion of this beautiful song.
A lot of anxiety and worries right now...how I wish I could get a million miles away.
I love Jim Boyd's voice and songwriting. Smoke Signals had an awesome soundtrack!
