This is one of my favorite songs by The Decemberists because it is one of those that will stick in your mind. 😀
I'm a weeping mess. I can't even speak words to say what this band has meant to me over the years. The day I got "What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World," is known as Decemberists day in my household, because my boyfriend had never seen me glow, weep, feel the way I did on my first listen to that album. (As well as most subsequent listens.) The Decemberists were my first love, and people still need to squish in with them to fit in my heart. Thank you for everything. I will be a devoted fan until the end of my days.
+Miranda Peloquin You should go back and listen to their older stuff if you haven't already. You'll fall in love with them even more :)
+Corruptangel Oh yes. Their very first album is wonderful, also Long Live the King and The King is Dead. Hazards of Love, though, is the first I heard; it made me fall in love with them instantly.
Nothing will ever top Picaresque for me.
so proud to say they are my favourite band :)
+Dżon Watson Amen to that!
Same here.
+Dżon Watson Ditto!!!
Six humans walking this earth still looking for their souls. Carry on. Keep looking.
Whenever I'm sad, your songs seem to be there to cheer me up
This seriously turned one of the shittiest weeks I've had into one of the best ever
Wow A song like this doesn’t come along every day
Great band , And Colin is also a great Author , I'm in middle of his book "Wildwood" , Great story .
It's a kids' book
A frickin fantastic kids’ book
Lyrics:
"Have I ever lost your way?
Have I ever left you waylaid?
Have I ever come unstayed?
Why would I now?
There were times I loathed your name
There were times I laid on the blame
There were times I brought on shame
Why would I now?
For I will never be your familiar soul
And I will never see your imperior hold
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Or caught you bent around?
Why would I now?
Have I ever steered you wrong?
Have I ever strung you along?
Have I ever kept you long?
Why would I now?
There were times I broke through the walls
There were times I broke through it all
There were times it felt so hard
Why would I now?
For I will never be your familiar soul
And I will never see your imperior hold
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Or caught you bent around?
Why would I now?
Though the years they may upbraid you
How it all nearly unmade you, laying down
Why would it now?
Remember when it all went dark
Remember when it first rent apart
Remember how I held my mark
So why wouldn't I now?
For I will never be your familiar soul
And I will never see your imperial hold
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Or caught you bent around?
Why would I now?"
The melodic music of the decemberists is so beautiful
Something magical happened when you guys recorded WATWWABW because every song on it, including this song is brilliant. Cheers!
Whenever I'm sad, this song makes me glad. Whenever I'm mad, this song makes me rad.
FINALLY. Waited for what felt like so long after hearing Colin do it on his solo tour - sounds wonderful
This is exactly what I needed at the exact moment I needed it. Thank you Colin, Chris, Nate, John and Jennee.
Such a great song.
I was feeling super crappy, and then I saw that I'd missed this, and suddenly my day was brightened.
once again.....quality work from a brilliant band.
Great song, great band! Thanks for posting!
yes! I am so glad they are releasing an EP
This is wonderful
Quality song
they never disappoint. :)
Great musician you are :)
YES YES YES...JUST YES
Have I ever sat back n watch u go
How did this brilliant song get left off the album proper? It is magnificent!
Did it? I have the record and it's definitely on there.
Lovely.
me encanta.
been a aubscriber for months without a video finally paid off ✌✌
More Please.
Guys, you need to come back to San Diego!
Good Good Band...
Please tour this EP so I can see you again
I don't see why everyone thinks they got bad after King is Dead. There are a ton of great songs on that album, the EP that came with it, and their latest. Do people just have that same pouty hipster "their older stuff was better" attitude with everything?
That's got to be it, because their recent outings have been great. The Decemberists are a band that is still going strong.
Tbh I didn't think "what a terrible world, what a beautiful world" was all that great but this song is fantastic.
+BANE? I think The King is Dead is wonderful. Their second best album after Picaresque. That said, I think 'What A Terrible World, What A Beautiful World' is BY FAR their worst record. I still give it like a 7/10, but it was a disappointment for me. That isn't to say there aren't a few great songs on it (Make You Better, The Lake Song, Mistral), but there are also really bad songs.
+Matt Heckler I guess it's just a matter of personal opinion. Still, people who act like their discography has been a downward slope are just plain dumb.
I don't think it makes them dumb it just makes their opinion different from yours and mine.
This song is quite interesting.
Guys, you're supposed to put the good songs on the actual ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!
To me this harkens to the earliest releases when Colin Meloy was fronting Tarkio.
Pray for the 19 people who have voted this down. They have clearly lost their hearts.
Make that 24.
Nice
Have I ever lost your way?
Have I ever left you Elaine?
Have I ever called and stayed?
Why would I now?
There were times I load your name
There were times I laid on plain
There were times I brought on shame
Why would I now?
But I will never be your familiar soul
and I will never see your interior whole
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around?
Why would I now?
Have I ever ‘stand you wrong?
Have I ever strong you a line?
Have I ever get you alone?
Why would I now?
There were times I go through the walls
There were times I broke through it all
There were times it felt so hard,
Why would I now?
But I will never be your familiar soul
and I will never see your interior whole
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around?
Why would I now?
Lucky is the day I prayed you
How it all really unmade you land down
Why would now?
Remember when it all went dark
Remember when it first ran apart
Remember how I held my marks
So wouldn't I now?
But I will never be your familiar soul
and I will never see your interior whole
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around?
Why would I now?
Have you done this yourself or got them off an official source? Some don't look right to me.
I did it by myself, so there can be mistakes :/
+Dżon Watson Thought so! No worries, I can't understand half of the lines myself!
+Dżon Watson Another take on it. I think you got most of it, but some of it is really hard to figure out.
Have I ever lost your way?

+Sarah Lancaster That seems better! When I listen to it I hear "I will never see your imperial gold" after the familiar soul bit but no idea if that's right. Other than that I've got no clue what he says in your other question marks!
best stuff on the planet- dank with no stank
Why would you at 12:00 EST on a Thursday
Mfw when I just bought What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World.
Shia surprise!
Have I ever?
I will be your familor soul
So why can't I view this in the UK without using a VPN?
+Robin Nixon Ahh - that was quick - fixed now :)
hi hipsters
bby
She's a brick & I'm drowning slowly. ...
Ugh. They used to be so much better. Amazing how much they've fallen off even since 'The King is Dead.' However THIS SONG is amazing. Better than anything on WABWWATW.
Such a great song.
