Just heard this song on TV and literally searched until I found it! The strat, the lyrics, his voice all of it is perfection. Soothing soul sounds are like Bob Dylan and Mazzy Star combined. Wow, well done❤
It's 8/29/24 today & same 4 me...saw the TV ad & straight to Google...that was whatever year it was. Thank you, blessings always Kevin, for such a beautiful sensitive & tear jerking song for me. Music heals, 🧑🦳🙏🕯️🙏🎶🕯️🙏🕯️🙏🕯️🎵🙏💔
I HATE COMMERCIALS but I always stop and listen to the Airbnb commercial. So relaxing...and very profound. I added this video to several of my playlists. This is a shareable keeper!!!! Great talent!
Lyrics If you ever hear that thunder Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in Is up to he If you ever hear that crying In the distance like some siren Maybe there's a singer with no ring Around their little finger, no love And if I lose my voice If I have no choice but to go quiet Won't you sing for me a melody Into the night air And if I die too young, if the wolf he comes Fee-fi-fo-fum And if I die too young, oh, if the locust come Well then, run, run, run free If you ever hear that gunshot You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got Say a prayer, think of mother I am a rock If you ever hear that sound now If the door gets kicked in, here they come now Think of others, be their cover I am what they're not Pray for Paris, they cannot scare us Or stop the music You got a sweet voice, child Why don't you use it? And if I die too young, if the gunmen come I'm full of love So release me, every piece of me Up above (up above) Love my mama and my papa Love my sister, can't stand the coppers Up in their choppers Oh, flying overhead, forty-nine dead Singing, oh, my Lord, come carry me home Oh, my Lord, come carry me home I'm singing oh, my God, oh, my Lord Oh, my God, oh, my Lord Oh, my God, oh, my Lord Oh, my Lord And if I die too young for something I ain't done Carry my name every day Oh, I'm sorry, oh, I'm sorry Freddie Gray But sleep easy like baby Jesus In a manger Oh, sleep easy like little Jesus Beautiful stranger Oh, beautiful stranger If I die too young, let all that I've done Be remembered And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus In his manger And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus Safe from danger Carry onward like some songbird Beautiful stranger Carry onward like some songbird Beautiful stranger Oh, beautiful stranger
Love the Airbnb commercial the music and creatures are amazing. The creatures in the commercial were designed by Sonny Gerasimowicz who designed the creatures in Spike Jones film adaptation "Where the Wild Things Are". Not sure why I said that, Oh ya I was supposed to say "Fun Fact" first.
I wonder why Airbnb chose this song? It has politics, civil rights, sad history and the animal creatures turning into humans in the end. What can we make of all this? I bought the song. My sister loves this commercial.
Happy I found this. Very happy.
Sleep well beautiful strangers

Can’t get this song out of my head. Cleaning the house and grooving with the beat.
I have never enjoyed a commercial so much! I'm so glad it led me to this artist.
Same here!!
Love, love this song. Can't stop listening to it. His voice is so soothing.
true art. beautiful lyrics. like a lullaby, soothing.
Love this version also! Sad, yet soothing. 😢
Wow...love it. Thank you.
DITTO- love IT

I thought this was Bob Dylan for a couple of reason ..his vocals and it sounds like something he would write ...well done song glad I found it
Amazing.
This is class, real music, when I thought it had gone. Reminds me of Bob Dylan / Lou Reed
Lyrics
If you ever hear that thunder
Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in
Is up to he
If you ever hear that crying
In the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a singer with no ring
Around their little finger, no love
And if I lose my voice
If I have no choice but to go quiet
Won't you sing for me a melody
Into the night air
And if I die too young, if the wolf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-fum
And if I die too young, oh, if the locust come
Well then, run, run, run free
If you ever hear that gunshot
You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
Say a prayer, think of mother
I am a rock
If you ever hear that sound now
If the door gets kicked in, here they come now
Think of others, be their cover
I am what they're not
Pray for Paris, they cannot scare us
Or stop the music
You got a sweet voice, child
Why don't you use it?
And if I die too young, if the gunmen come
I'm full of love
So release me, every piece of me
Up above (up above)
Love my mama and my papa
Love my sister, can't stand the coppers
Up in their choppers
Oh, flying overhead, forty-nine dead
Singing, oh, my Lord, come carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
I'm singing oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my Lord
And if I die too young for something I ain't done
Carry my name every day
Oh, I'm sorry, oh, I'm sorry
Freddie Gray
But sleep easy like baby Jesus
In a manger
Oh, sleep easy like little Jesus
Beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
If I die too young, let all that I've done
Be remembered
And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus
In his manger
And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus
Safe from danger
Carry onward like some songbird
Beautiful stranger
Carry onward like some songbird
Beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
