Probably to this day still my favorite bright eyes song. Thanks so much for posting a version that seems like a fever dream. I check back every so often to make sure I didn’t imagine it.
Michael A. Webermann x Just went to comment, and noticed you took the words right out of my mouth! This totally hits my emotional side and my raging passionately political side!
I love this song, love the collaboration and love EVERY SINGLE COMMENT ON THIS VIDEO!! I have never seen LITERALLY EVERYONE agree in a comment section. 🥰
@penancesoiree Tom played a Nightwatchman set right before Bright Eyes hit the stage! He stuck around and watched in the wings for a while, and then came out and absolutely RIPPED it!
The fragile keep secrets Gathered in pockets And they'll sell them for nothing A cheap watch or locket That kind of gold just washes off And the sad act like lepers They stick to the shadows They long to ring bells of warning To tell of their coming So that the pure can shut their doors And the angry are animals Senseless and savage They act without order In logical lapses They stain their mouths with blood So take my hand This barren land is alive tonight Oh, the corn has grown stalks That form a wall to hide But the wind carries sounds That I can't see from beyond that line Then the stalks begin to sway Oh, so stay with me, Arienette 'Til the wolves are away Yup Well, the wicked are vultures And they bake in the canyons They circle in sunlight And wait for their victims To collapse and call to them And the desperate are water They'll run down forever And they soak into silence And end up together In a dark and distant, dark and distant place So don't leave me here with only mirrors watching me This house, it holds nothing but the memories And the moon, it leaves silver but never sleep Then the silver turns to gray Oh, you stay with me, Arienette Until the wolves are away
Tom I always judged you because of the fans that prop you up as a guitar god just because you can use a kill switch and learned how to manipulate a whammy pedal, but now that I'm older I see that you are a true musician and fan of music. Fuck the system! 1312!
cheapness. You know, it looks gold but wear it awhile and its no longer gold. People who just want to blah blah blah their "secrets" to anyone who will listen.
Jesus Christ Tom.
That was more than putting on a show, that was truly loving to collaboration he was apart of..
This live version with Morello has more depth than the original. I think Bright Eyes has really come of age now, and it keeps getting better. Love it.
But don't ya still love the raw, young original studio versions?

Tom absolutely killed that song
Really fantastic lyrics. Never realized how great this song was. He wrote this when he was around 20 too. Pretty amazing
19 actually, that's the age I am it's insane to me
I still can't believe this video fucking exists...what a treat
best version ever ever ever ever
I just stumbled upon this and my mind is blown. I needed this unique, beautiful collaboration without even knowing it.
Unreal. I would have cried if I were there.

I come back to this video so much. It's a perfect collaboration.
That guy can play like a fucking god
I love this song, love the collaboration and love EVERY SINGLE COMMENT ON THIS VIDEO!! I have never seen LITERALLY EVERYONE agree in a comment section. 🥰

I was not expecting that...
Holy SH*T this is awesome!

One of the best bands together with one of the best Guitar players. This video is epic!
wow, a totally unexpected collab
Man they NEED to record something together, that would be fucking incredible.

Holy fuck... that was amazing!

Thanks for the nice quality videos. Audio sounds great.
The fragile keep secrets
Gathered in pockets
And they'll sell them for nothing
A cheap watch or locket
That kind of gold just washes off
And the sad act like lepers
They stick to the shadows
They long to ring bells of warning
To tell of their coming
So that the pure can shut their doors
And the angry are animals
Senseless and savage
They act without order
In logical lapses
They stain their mouths with blood
So take my hand
This barren land is alive tonight
Oh, the corn has grown stalks
That form a wall to hide
But the wind carries sounds
That I can't see from beyond that line
Then the stalks begin to sway
Oh, so stay with me, Arienette
'Til the wolves are away
Yup
Well, the wicked are vultures
And they bake in the canyons
They circle in sunlight
And wait for their victims
To collapse and call to them
And the desperate are water
They'll run down forever
And they soak into silence
And end up together
In a dark and distant, dark and distant place
So don't leave me here with only mirrors watching me
This house, it holds nothing but the memories
And the moon, it leaves silver but never sleep
Then the silver turns to gray
Oh, you stay with me, Arienette
Until the wolves are away
amazing!
Tight.
Fucking Tom killed itt!!!
That's a good beat...
FUCK YES
FUCK YEAH TOM MORELLO!
And Fuck, god-damned yeah, I.W.W.
woahwoahwoahwoahwoah.
@Pennoid Yeah...I'll admit it, that was me :P
you sound like Stan's Dad from southpark
😂
fucking serious

This makes me want to pee my pants. (In a good way, of corse.)
"That kind of gold washes off." I don"t get it.
