Today is my firstborn son's birthdate. He passed away 3yrs ago due to a fentanyl overdose. As I was thinking of him today, this song came on. First time I ever heard it. Took my breath away, even more when I watched the video. Timothy was a BMX rider and I would take him and his friends into Philly to ride. Thank you so very much for this priceless gift your band as given me.
This is the first song I heard by these and I've never looked back. I had to play it again just so I new I'd heard it right . I've never stopped playing their music it's so inspirational . AMAZING
I never had a dad in my life and a man came into my life 18 years ago and taught me everything that he knows and made me a successful man in life ! He was old school and outspoken , he passed away the day after Christmas and I owe him many a thanks! I'm a single pap raising two girls and they considered him to be grandpa. Life moves forward and the legacy will too! Love you Roger!
It’s everything.. the vocals .. the riffs.. Sweet Lord .. what a a heartrending beautiful song!!Gives me chills here in Southern Maine.. my loved one in San Diego area.. addicted to opioids.. my beloved sisters Daughter Lyndsay.. 😞 lost .. She is a beautiful girl 42 years old .. it’s heartbreaking
Yep, this one has it all. It is full of cliches, all of this has been done in the past but somehow, I don't care. I just want to listen to it on repeat.
@@Mono_8080 Agree, found out about TWOD today and gonna take this to a 💯 listens easily! Thought I heard Neil Young echoing in this song, but that might be my imagination... 😎
I’m 63 years old and I have never in many decades heard such a beautiful message of song for heaven’s sake this is so gorgeous and crazy loving.. what in Gods Name!! So beautiful.. I resist what I cannot change! 😢😢😂😂❤❤😊😊😢😢 lord almighty!! 😢😢
I feel the War on Drugs have produced a sound that no other band have over the last decade. Their music is so gorgeous it can't be overstated. This song is pure fire but they have so many others. 'Thinking of a place' is just phenomenal, nothing short of life changing. So grateful I came across this band.
Patterson Hood of the Drive By Truckers talks about what he calls “perfect songs,” which couldn’t possibly be made better by changing anything about them. This is a perfect song, and the way he weaves such atmospheric sounds into lyrics so deep is actually quite spiritual. Pain and fear are so basic to being human, and the way he touches on them takes what’s often seen as negative and flips it to an expression of human connection and solidarity. This isn’t just a “perfect song.” I don’t know if you could make a more perfectly human piece of art at all.
This song is just perfect...hits just right driving in the car with no destination in mind, just open road. Also is a rare balance of nostalgic and also future facing and calling me to a time in the future when i am just chillin' with friends and family in the backyard on a perfect fall day and there is such peace even though we all have pain and experience it in physical, emotional, mental, amd spiritual ways. God bless all who read this!
Lost my mum to cancer a year ago. I listened to this a lot before it happened and I continue to listen to it. She lived a successful, honourable life helping others as a nurse. Nobody can avoid pain, but we can each of us do what we can to make it a bit less. This song helps.
I'm very sorry for Your loss. I lost my mum being 12. It was 42 years ago. I'm crying still as it was yesterday. But just think that way - they are in peace.
Lyrics: Go to bed now I can tell Pain is on the way out now Look away, a domino falls away I know it's hard lookin' in Knowin' that tomorrow you'll be back again Hang your head and let me in, I'm waitin' So long I was staring into the light When I saw you in the distance, I knew that you'd be mine Am I movin' back in time? Just standin' still? I met a man with a broken back He had a fear in his eyes that I could understand I can't even shake the pain without breakin' I've been pullin' on a wire, but it just won't break I've been turnin' up the dial, but I hear no sound I resist what I cannot change And I wanna find what can't be found I'm aware you're tired and lost Like a demon in a doorway, waiting to be born But I'm here all alone, just beggin' Pull me close and let me hold you in Give me the deeper understanding of who I am Yeah, I'm going back again, I'm waiting here I'm just pullin' on a wire, but it just won't break I've been turnin' up a dial, but I hear no sound I resist what I cannot change, own it in your own way Yeah, I wanna find what can't be found

The solo at the end transmits what the song wants to explain, the pain, the end of a love relationship, this song makes me cry, because I'm going through that, the guitar at the beginning begins with a sad melody and then changes to a I strum loudly as with rage and anger as it happens at the end of a love affair that was special
I came up to Adam as he was wrapping up his cables after a gig 3 years ago and said hello; he stopped what he was doing and talked to me for ten minutes. I said goodbye first, not wanting to hold the man up too long. My point is, he is a gent.
Alex yeah listen to them live on radio and interviews; Adam's not only a gent, he's not a snob or elitist, he's real! Both serious and funny, serious about his music, his band, his guitars and amps (watch the guitar rig with Adam Granduciel), yet funny on radio performances, such as KFOG.
I'm sure this comes up from time to time with this band, but they would have been world conquering multi-multi-millionaire superstars in the 80's and 90's with this music of theirs. It is so fucking good. Music like this is life-enhancing. Feels like I should be doing cross country road trips every time I play it.
This will go down as a classic.. just listen !! The guitar riffs are so fantastic!! My Lord this is gorgeous!! What the Christ!! The lyrics everything.. makes me cry .. 😂 63 and I love this to max!! 😂❤❤😢😢😅😅😮
I come back to this time and again.. Fantastic guitar Riffs!! My heart 💜 breaks here in Coastal Maine for my beautiful 42 year old Neice in San Diego area.. and her ear with opioids.. what a song!!😢😮😊❤❤❤
I feel like I ruined a lot of relationships that I really cared about in the past. I’ve struggled with depression and panic disorder. I’ve carried that guilt with me for a long time. This song doesn’t make it easier, but it helps me sleep at night.
Byzantium maybe it wasn’t made to last, be great full for what you got, people comes in & out of our lives all the time, I still don’t understand why some people came into my life
This thread right here, totally restores my faith in music of current times being as good, if not a little better than some songs of days gone by. I think what they have captured here is a vibe many folk needed...respect to these boys... FILL THE GAP....do it. We have two songs which seem to be TIME MACHINE numbers which could have been dragged into the modern day from decades ago.....THE CHILD by URBAN SEASCAPE.....and SAILING ON A CLOUD by STEPHEN RUSSELL....pay no heed to small amounts of plays...the future is bright for them both with no massive budget or Record Label behind them...just Joe Public's support. Maybe we should invent a new chart....TIME MACHINE NUMBERS OF TODAY.
That solo at the end is like guitar turned into the human emotion of pain; its like it is aggravated and distressed that it cant change and it works with the song so well, we start to hear small changes that only hint at attempts to make something work/change only to be caught in the same note again(pain), then it carries on over the melody which I interpret as life is always painful, however it shows the human spirit of wanting to make it work...what?.... Wow. The musicality and innovation of this band is unheard of.
It fuckin pulls at the heartstrings alright. I have no clear idea of the lyrics'meaning, no sentimental memory of the song. Yet it's been tearin me up for about a ,month now. Crazy shit
Im just gonna straight up say this song hits my heart strings and makes me bawl. Its so beautiful. I was going through kind of a crisis emotionally and when he says I wanna find what cant be found. I dont know why but it gave me a purpose. I feel like it saved my life. Idk. Just my story....just hope you all find meaning in life too....
The song is a true masterpiece, I love coming to read the comments while listening to it in the background. I am able to connect with everyone who writes, whether complimenting this great group or simply telling a story from their life, I get to feel them as if they were my own. This music opens my heart and heals it when I'm bad. I hope Adam also comes to the comment boxes of his songs because what he achieves in us is incredible, you can't aspire to much more in life. THANK YOU
I've never known a band to have so many influences and to remind people of so many other musicians.....yet still sound so completely original. Recipe for greatness that...
my grandpa died my grandma was so lost for years until she died. Thats what i feel true love is thats what created my family. Thats what i want for myself ill make a family for a man who sacraficed his life for all of us. Thanks grandpa love you
True, IMHO, Lost in the Dream is the best album there is, as a whole, and that will be for a long time. Maybe this one will top it, I don't know yet, but it would be nearly impossible :)
Back in 2016 I just moved to the outer banks of North Carolina. Had many nights walking along the beach. The local radio station always played lesser known artists and this song played often. Enjoyed many days listening to radio while walking at beach and songs like this played. Boy, those were simple awesome days. Now a fan of WOD..
Holy shit. I read your comment before the solo and was like "ya, that acoustic does sound nice... but huh?"... Then that solo/interlude hit. Nothing flashy, but ya. That tone.
Go to bed now I can tell Pain is on the way out now Look at the way the domino falls away I know it's hard looking in Knowing that tomorrow you'll be back again Hang your head and let me in, I'm waiting So long I was staring into the light When I saw you in the distance, I knew that you'd be mine Am I moving back in time?

I can't even begin to describe how much this song means to me and has quickly held such a strong meaning in my life. Everything about this song is powerful and amazing. The lyrics, the melody, the guitar rifs, vocals......honestly one of the best songs i've ever heard.
There's just something so magnificent about this song. The combination of the guitars and the vocals ringing out alongside the deep pounding drums is so otherworldly. Really is a beautiful song
I like artists who write their own lyrics, paint in unique colors, and draw from within. TWOD connects an array of emotions. This song is truly magnificent!
This is my go-to song after an episode of severe physical pain has left me weak, exhausted, and in bed. It's comforting and heartbreaking at the same time.
My baby Brother lost the war on drugs yesterday, age 38... Until we meet in Heaven, Bro Alex... Miss you more than I could ever describe. Love you so much ❤️ Rest in peace.
@@rakanal-sahli3073 Thank-you... and my deepest condolences to you and your family, as well. It astounds me how governments around the globe have not put a "wanted dead or alive" on the pharmaceutical companies that have murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent people. This is just unacceptable. I know that I'm getting involved. I called his doctor's office and gave a warning of the legal nightmare that he is about to endure. This poison called opioid medication should only be dispensed if someone is in hospital - but never otherwise. Drug trafficking should be dealt with as the Laws in Singapore state, "The penalty for drug trafficking in Singapore is death." I don't call this brutality - I call this murder. And the drug companies get off the hook by filing bankruptcy. Change must come... change WILL come. Be blessed.
The level of musicianship on this new album is incredible but much more than that the lyrics Adam delivers are poems to pain, longing and loss, never once tipping into self pity.... but wry and hopeful for better days. Genius level artistry. TWOD are America's best rock band by a country mile.
My Mum is currently in hospital for opioid dependence, addiction. Praise Jesus she is in recovery and safe. There absolutely needs to be a war on drugs... Lift those who need our love and encouragement the most.
Ty Thank-you so much. Praise Jesus Mum has recovered. It breaks my heart to say that my younger brother Alex lost the war yesterday at age 38. Today would have been his 39th birthday. Absolutely broken-hearted.
Best track on the album. Has a longing quality, a yearning search to reveal what the pain is and either how to rid ourselves of it or resign ourselves to live with it and bear it, yet forge on.
This song just hits me and I can't explain it. I lost my Dad last week and I grew up in DE near where this video is shot. So many memories flooding back watching this, thank you for posting.
This reminds me of my parents too - they've not passed yet, but it sure does get me emotional about the thought of it. Hope you're doing well. Love from the UK.

Usually, after I've listened to a song about 100 times, the thrill is gone.
This song is the exception. GOD it's fantastic.
Justin Gaynor people can't understand how I can listen to the same songs over and over and over again, but you TWOD fans do!
Agreed, sure is a fantastic song 💯
Yep, this one has it all. It is full of cliches, all of this has been done in the past but somehow, I don't care. I just want to listen to it on repeat.

Wonderful comment. Profound.
Perfect 👍

So true dude
Music such as this moves you to make memories or defy the grain. You have awareness just run with your awakening and have faith in what you find.

Yes! They are wonderful.

This song got me through one of the hardest years of my life. Thank you for helping me still be around.
Never go away, stay until something else makes you fade.
Thank you for not giving up.
Me too at least, I though 2017/18 were bad years, oh I didn't knew how 2020 was going to be
Please stay! I feel you so much. ❤️

it really says the truth in this song. Enhancement for sure, so many layers to this song
Agreed! The Stellified
Well said and true
I think no matter the terrible things going on that good real music can break through the crust.
This song blew my mind away. And it does again today.
Been listening to music for 50 years now, and this is hands down one of the best songs I ever heard.
In real .. lovely
Man, I just discovered them and I'm absolutely blown away by their sound.
Great for those late haunts
Awesome feeling, isn't it?
Yeah, you and me both
Thanks be to the algorithm.

This song flows through the deepest part of my soul.

Absolutly agree with you 😏, and that 🎸, j'adore 💙
I can't help but feel an overwhelming feeling of sadness everytime I hear it..
Not just saddness but the happiness after
The pain somehow makes sense when you listen to it.
Lost my mum to cancer a year ago.

Lyrics:
Go to bed now I can tell
Pain is on the way out now
Look away, a domino falls away
I know it's hard lookin' in
Knowin' that tomorrow you'll be back again
Hang your head and let me in, I'm waitin'
So long
I was staring into the light
When I saw you in the distance, I knew that you'd be mine
Am I movin' back in time?
Just standin' still?
I met a man with a broken back
He had a fear in his eyes that I could understand
I can't even shake the pain without breakin'
I've been pullin' on a wire, but it just won't break
I've been turnin' up the dial, but I hear no sound
I resist what I cannot change
And I wanna find what can't be found
I'm aware you're tired and lost
Like a demon in a doorway, waiting to be born
But I'm here all alone, just beggin'
Pull me close and let me hold you in
Give me the deeper understanding of who I am
Yeah, I'm going back again, I'm waiting here
I'm just pullin' on a wire, but it just won't break
I've been turnin' up a dial, but I hear no sound
I resist what I cannot change, own it in your own way
Yeah, I wanna find what can't be found
Cheers

This song makes me extremely happy and sad at the same time! Real feeling.

Euphoria & Melancholy are two sides of the same coin 😉
A Melancholy masterpiece.
I came up to Adam as he was wrapping up his cables after a gig 3 years ago and said hello; he stopped what he was doing and talked to me for ten minutes. I said goodbye first, not wanting to hold the man up too long. My point is, he is a gent.
Alex yeah listen to them live on radio and interviews; Adam's not only a gent, he's not a snob or elitist, he's real! Both serious and funny, serious about his music, his band, his guitars and amps (watch the guitar rig with Adam Granduciel), yet funny on radio performances, such as KFOG.
So, you actually met Adam Granofsky? Cool!! In interviews, he's very chill.....
I'm sure this comes up from time to time with this band, but they would have been world conquering multi-multi-millionaire superstars in the 80's and 90's with this music of theirs. It is so fucking good.
Music like this is life-enhancing. Feels like I should be doing cross country road trips every time I play it.
The cross country road trip vibe is real.
I second that notion.
it touches your soul. thats what great music does
Jonathan B let’s go.
Had this band on repeat during a 10 hour drive to Maine experiencing the Appalachians. Changed my life.
The lyrics and everything about this song makes you think what really life is. The pain, joy, and all aspects of life.
Joy, happiness, pain, suffering.
Bob Dylan, Dire Straits, Pink Floyd all rolled into ONE ❤

Byzantium maybe it wasn’t made to last, be great full for what you got, people comes in & out of our lives all the time, I still don’t understand why some people came into my life
Brian Campbell from Morning Kombat brought me here! Go check them out ya donks!!
Heck, we have things when we are stupid, and we lose them by the time we get wiser
@Jessica Palmer just keep going i guess, that s what i tell myself, the beauty and the answer can and must be in the attempt, gl
And here I thought it was just me.
I am not joking, this is the best song of the past decade.. and its not even close
yep, one of
right there with you mate
This thread right here, totally restores my faith in music of current times being as good, if not a little better than some songs of days gone by.
I think what they have captured here is a vibe many folk needed...respect to these boys...
FILL THE GAP....do it.
We have two songs which seem to be TIME MACHINE numbers which could have been dragged into the modern day from decades ago.....THE CHILD by URBAN SEASCAPE.....and SAILING ON A CLOUD by STEPHEN RUSSELL....pay no heed to small amounts of plays...the future is bright for them both with no massive budget or Record Label behind them...just Joe Public's support.
Maybe we should invent a new chart....TIME MACHINE NUMBERS OF TODAY.
Cigarette Daydreams and Sarah by Sturgill Simpson are right there with it.
I actually would give that to Under the Pressure by the same band
god that solo is pure heaven i love it so much
That solo at the end is like guitar turned into the human emotion of pain; its like it is aggravated and distressed that it cant change and it works with the song so well, we start to hear small changes that only hint at attempts to make something work/change only to be caught in the same note again(pain), then it carries on over the melody which I interpret as life is always painful, however it shows the human spirit of wanting to make it work...what?.... Wow. The musicality and innovation of this band is unheard of.
This comment is why UA-cam and social media can we so cool. Hadn’t thought about it that way. Thank you.
It fuckin pulls at the heartstrings alright. I have no clear idea of the lyrics'meaning, no sentimental memory of the song. Yet it's been tearin me up for about a ,month now.
Crazy shit
Im just gonna straight up say this song hits my heart strings and makes me bawl. Its so beautiful. I was going through kind of a crisis emotionally and when he says I wanna find what cant be found. I dont know why but it gave me a purpose. I feel like it saved my life. Idk. Just my story....just hope you all find meaning in life too....
Amen sir
Me too. 😭
Love loves you
This song is perfect in every single way.
I listened to this song pretty much over and over again during a 3 hour road trip. It was one of the best drives I've been on
I did too from Utah to Alberta
This makes me feel like its okay that I feel miserable and that its okay that I cry, I feel like Im hugged in reassurance. Thank you
Check Gooseberries by Chekhov.
Well, the fact that you cry at beautiful things, means youre not misserable by any stretch
I mean you might feel misserable, but youre not being misserable if that makes sence
@@hrahmani5738 I'll check it out
@@elchiponr1 I think I know what you mean and thank you
The song is a true masterpiece, I love coming to read the comments while listening to it in the background. I am able to connect with everyone who writes, whether complimenting this great group or simply telling a story from their life, I get to feel them as if they were my own. This music opens my heart and heals it when I'm bad. I hope Adam also comes to the comment boxes of his songs because what he achieves in us is incredible, you can't aspire to much more in life. THANK YOU
Every comment section needs to be like this one! True music fans and no keyboard warriors. Those guitar solos though!
Hunter Scott 4 guitar solos...and it doesn't even feel like one bit of overkill
Right? It is a lovefest!
Hunter Scott you’ve got to love UA-cam comments. A bastion of positivity and a haven for like minded souls...unheard of elsewhere on social media
This song touches my heart in a special way.
You said it.
I've never known a band to have so many influences and to remind people of so many other musicians.....yet still sound so completely original. Recipe for greatness that...
Not just greatness. Something more important and necessary...
Pain never sounded so good.. The whole album is incredible..
If you ever get the chance to see them live, don't miss it. Life changing🤯
Saw them at Red Rocks 9/19/22 totally agree 😀🎵
my grandpa died my grandma was so lost for years until she died. Thats what i feel true love is thats what created my family. Thats what i want for myself ill make a family for a man who sacraficed his life for all of us. Thanks grandpa love you
never even heard of these guys, but as soon as the song started i was hooked. wow, now i gotta listen to rest of their catalog.
You just wait. It only gets better from here :)
Lost in the Dream is literally why I wake up every day. In reverse.
True, IMHO, Lost in the Dream is the best album there is, as a whole, and that will be for a long time. Maybe this one will top it, I don't know yet, but it would be nearly impossible :)
They finally got released on a label heard them on the radio last night and was shocked finally good music is back
jon p. Listen to the song red eyes, first song that I heard by them and I've been hooked ever sense ❤️
Sweet Lord the Guitar riffs are beautiful!! Fantastic song for Christ’s Sake.Gorgeous!!😂😂😢😢😮😮😊😊😅😅❤❤❤
Better than drugs.
Mixed with drugs is even better
@@deffzg This song and Strangest Thing will send you to space.
@@deffzg just about to say! 💊
The War On Drugs is winning against Drugs
@@alexcabrera2932 I've just heard it, what a masterpiece!
This guitar solo is insane but 4:37 just hits you so hard. So beautiful
Back in 2016 I just moved to the outer banks of North Carolina. Had many nights walking along the beach. The local radio station always played lesser known artists and this song played often. Enjoyed many days listening to radio while walking at beach and songs like this played. Boy, those were simple awesome days. Now a fan of WOD..
Ran across this song by accident. By far one of the best bands I've heard in a long time. Can't get enough of them right now
Same. It was random UA-cam surfing which brought me here. Love this song already. Gonna go explore more of their songs.
@@jadis40 have so much fun - - its all so good
try to listen to still corners - the trip or other songs the guitar is much better in still corners
The tone of the guitar❤️
Rick Krasco oh yeah!
AG is the King of Tone. Seems to feel the music - music not all about how fast your fingers move.
Browncow yup! He did a Rig Rundown a few years back; very interesting.
Rick Krasco yes I saw that it was great!
Holy shit. I read your comment before the solo and was like "ya, that acoustic does sound nice... but huh?"... Then that solo/interlude hit. Nothing flashy, but ya. That tone.
Can’t believe just three hours ago I listened to this song live in a concert by this band in Singapore. Surreal! Loved it!
Thanks for the recommendation. Loved that song!
It's been said a million times, but this War On Drugs album is going to be the album of the year.
The decade!
What a piece of art. This album will save my days.
Thank you for making the world a better place with your music
AMEN
🇺🇦✌🏽🙏
Such a beautiful song.
I can recall the day I first saw the video. I watched it twice. ❤️🎶🎶
My fave war on drugs tune
Sure is a beautiful, well composed song with deep lyrics.
Amazing got tickets for Edinburgh can't wait
On the second place in my heart after Thinking of the place. I love it
Go to bed now I can tell
Pain is on the way out now
Look at the way the domino falls away
I know it's hard looking in
Knowing that tomorrow you'll be back again
Hang your head and let me in, I'm waiting
So long
I was staring into the light
When I saw you in the distance, I knew that you'd be mine
Am I moving back in time?
Just standing still?
I met a man with a broken back
He had a fear in his eyes that I could understand
I can't even shake the hand
Without breaking it
I've been pulling on a wire, but it just won't break
I've been turning up the dial, but I hear no sound
I resist what I cannot change
And I wanna find what can't be found
I'm aware of the time we lost
Like a demon in the doorway, waiting to be born
But I'm here all alone, just begging
Pull me close and let me hold you in
Give me the deeper understanding of who I am
Yeah, I'm moving back again, I'm waiting, yeah
I'm just pulling on a wire, but it just won't break
I've been turning up the dial, but I hear no sound
I resist what I cannot change, own it in your own way
Yeah, I wanna find what can't be found...
ამას მოუსმინე ხოლმე 💥🎡იტუნეს
Thanks for posting the lyrics to this fabulous song. I would have done it if I hadn't seen your post.
Soul has a name
@@adventuretruck8057 no name
Sem palavras para essa banda!! Que qualidade!! Discografia sensacional!!
I can't even begin to describe how much this song means to me and has quickly held such a strong meaning in my life. Everything about this song is powerful and amazing. The lyrics, the melody, the guitar rifs, vocals......honestly one of the best songs i've ever heard.
Realy well said 😇💙🤙
Yea Sabrina, to me this song is scary yet a beautiful masterpiece.
There's just something so magnificent about this song. The combination of the guitars and the vocals ringing out alongside the deep pounding drums is so otherworldly. Really is a beautiful song
Some The Cure, U2, Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young Mix
One of the best songs of the last 20 years
So trivial but this has got to be one of the heart-wrenching, beautiful songs ever .... Gorgeous!
'I resist what I cannot change'
... and I'm gonna find what can't be found.
fuck me up
steal all my records
Delta G Screw All My Friends
"I wanna find what can't be found." Very different. Seems about yearning and angst, like an itch you can't scratch idk
I like artists who write their own lyrics, paint in unique colors, and draw from within. TWOD connects an array of emotions. This song is truly magnificent!
My faith in music is restored. Thanks guys, you're a fantastic band.
The kind of song that inspires you to create something beautiful, whether it's a picture, a song, a memory❤
i remember playing it on loudspeakers in a university hall back in 2017, and my classmate instantly liked it and shazamed it. such a great track
This song can bring me to tears within seconds. Going through pain in life, everyone can relate to this song. Beautiful song.
"I resist what i cannot change and i wanna find what can't be found."
Awesome lyrics guys💔💔💔
I love you
this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my life
I resist what I cannot change
And I wanna find what can't be found...... beautfiful lyrics !
This is my go-to song after an episode of severe physical pain has left me weak, exhausted, and in bed. It's comforting and heartbreaking at the same time.

2020....still Listening
The War on Drugs, thank you for this!
it's magic
ditto
DaNceAholic friend of mine just told me about them. Literally, can’t stop listening to them.
Brian Campbell from Morning Kombat brought me here! Go check them out ya donks!!
New album soon
What a singer
This song speaks to my soul!
❤
I love you.
@@Sahlofolin542that was my old account, i still love you all!
I can hear this a million times over and it will never get old... that's when you know it's great music.
You’ll be listening this song in 2060. A real masterpiece!
My baby Brother lost the war on drugs yesterday, age 38... Until we meet in Heaven, Bro Alex... Miss you more than I could ever describe. Love you so much ❤️ Rest in peace.
Condolences
@@theparkerfamily7153 Many thanks, my friend. There needs to be a solution to the opioid epidemic... This affects so many, and costs so many lives.
@@rakanal-sahli3073 Thank-you... and my deepest condolences to you and your family, as well. It astounds me how governments around the globe have not put a "wanted dead or alive" on the pharmaceutical companies that have murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent people. This is just unacceptable. I know that I'm getting involved. I called his doctor's office and gave a warning of the legal nightmare that he is about to endure. This poison called opioid medication should only be dispensed if someone is in hospital - but never otherwise. Drug trafficking should be dealt with as the Laws in Singapore state, "The penalty for drug trafficking in Singapore is death." I don't call this brutality - I call this murder. And the drug companies get off the hook by filing bankruptcy. Change must come... change WILL come. Be blessed.
This song speaks directly to my soul.
The level of musicianship on this new album is incredible but much more than that the lyrics Adam delivers are poems to pain, longing and loss, never once tipping into self pity.... but wry and hopeful for better days. Genius level artistry. TWOD are America's best rock band by a country mile.
The instrumental part from 3:47 till the end just wow!
starting at that point is where i don't like the song anymore. but the rest, just a masterpiece!
:) Dude, that final instrumental part is just epic. And yes ofcourse the rest is great too.
BigLebowski2000
Exactly, Epic, goosebumps, instrumental end part is just amazing.
Hit me like icy cold water! I love it.
Agreed.
My Mum is currently in hospital for opioid dependence, addiction. Praise Jesus she is in recovery and safe. There absolutely needs to be a war on drugs... Lift those who need our love and encouragement the most.
Sorry to hear that. I think the band name comes from Nancy Reagan's program, "a war on drugs."
Ty Thank-you so much. Praise Jesus Mum has recovered. It breaks my heart to say that my younger brother Alex lost the war yesterday at age 38. Today would have been his 39th birthday. Absolutely broken-hearted.
They was called to save the good music! This is really beautiful!
“Give me the deeper understanding of who I am”
It’s funny how the album is named after that one line
I was 23 when this song came out and I first heard it. I’m 29 now. I know I’m not that old, but it hits so much harder these days
The War on Drugs is one of the few bands today keeping rock alive with new music.
Best track on the album. Has a longing quality, a yearning search to reveal what the pain is and either how to rid ourselves of it or resign ourselves to live with it and bear it, yet forge on.
This is so beautifully true. Thank you, I really needed this. I will write it down somewhere to keep going back to.
But, album is great. This one is also very good song, 4 example
ua-cam.com/video/TeaDE1magRk/v-deo.html
Wow! Wish I would have written that. Thanks.
One of the few bands to paint pain in such a beautiful way with the rawness of the guitar. Beautiful.
4:37 always give me goosebumps
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS! I was lookin for this comment
Absolutely! Really reminds me of tangerine by Led Zeppelin as well which i love!
Yeah!
This song just hits me and I can't explain it. I lost my Dad last week and I grew up in DE near where this video is shot. So many memories flooding back watching this, thank you for posting.
This would be a great song for Bob Dillon to sing, love it!!!!!
I'm from outside Philly. It has a soul there... and this video drives it home. Old soul shit... sorry about your dad, now its a year yeah? Much love.
This reminds me of my parents too - they've not passed yet, but it sure does get me emotional about the thought of it. Hope you're doing well. Love from the UK.
@@a-aron14 Coming on 2 years. Thanks man. Oh and GO BIRDS!
@@lewisking94 It seems lame but cherish the days you have with your folks, time flies and you will regret it trust me.
