Lyrics:
Oh Len, come down
And meet at the burial ground
They’ve undid the aerial
Tore down the merry-go-round
This world’s all wrong
So let’s go where we belong
Pack up the stereo, meet at the burial ground
Here among the fallen leaves
Are we alone the ones that dare to breathe?
Throw your worries down, they’re oh so gravely held
You have carried them so well
Len, come down
And meet at the burial ground
They’ve undid the aerial
Tore down the merry-go-round
This world’s all wrong
So let’s go where we belong
Pack up the stereo, meet at the burial ground
You laid down below a stone
Saying, “Wherever they have gone, I long to go.
Somewhere out beyond these maladies in my head.”
At least I think that’s what you said.
Len, come down
And meet at the burial ground
They’ve undid the aerial
Tore down the merry-go-round
This world’s all wrong
So let’s go where we belong
Pack up the stereo, meet at the burial ground
Len, come down
And meet at the burial ground
They’ve undid the aerial
Tore down the merry-go-round
This world’s all wrong
So let’s go where we belong
Pack up the stereo, meet at the burial ground
Contract malaria, meet at the burial ground!

This song reminds me of my father. He passed nearly 2 years ago. He would have loved this song. Thank you
Lord rest and keep him. 🙏📿
My condolences to your late father, I too lost mine unfairly.
Rip
I turned 50 this summer and I am a father of two daughters. I just discovered this song and I LOVE it!
Same. Mine passed on the 4th of July 2022, and he would've loved this song.
I’m obsessed with this song. Love it
I love it so much, too!! I can see the 'Movie' in my head!
Sames. They are playing tomorrow near me too - oh well
This song is awesome! Got a Beach Boys "Sloop John B" vibe going here.
and okkervil river maybe 😂
@@konstantingona8235 If you're familiar with it, it's obvious, but Sloop John B is, itself, an adaptation of an older song from 1916, so the tune is well in the public domain.
@@nonsuchned94 idk what's going on here, but in copyright context- if there's a copyright on sloop john b, it won't matter at all, yet first of all, there would need to be proof that burial ground was not only referring to, but actually copying sloop john b, which is imo not the case. as you know i guess...
It sounds like snow melting as Spring arrives.
one would only hope & faith.
It sounds like people returning to the forest. So much rotting matter, but also peace and tranquility away from the shit show of humanity
My thoughts are that this song by the Decemberists, will become an anthem for all of us of a certain age....!!! " For the Ages' !! ... We will 'Party on' and celebrate.... It's perfect. It's a dance it's a 'blessing' and a party ... All we Love... I hope to be there to dance and sing....
Gorgeous 60s folk-pop vibes.
Papa cass
Wish you would tour the UK again
Great jangle
I missed you guys a lot! 💚
Ditto.
Loving this... First time or two hearing I thought it's probably an old song by the Byrds... Great track! 🍻
Can't describe how happy I am to see new Decemberists music! Certainly my favorite band!
I just fell in love with this song tonight! 🥰💯💥
This is a partnership that's gonna get us through 2024. How can you not smile listening to this?
Heard this play on the Spectrum channel on XM the other night and have been playing it on repeat ever since. Great song!
Indeed!! It's an Anthem!!
Same!
Same, heard this on the spectrum today and been playing it on repeat
This one really sticks in your head.
I have been playing it at least 3-4 times a day for a week? Two weeks? On repeat, sometimes!
RETURN OF THE KING!! God it feels so nice to see more music from this lovely crew.
the king is not dead!
@@avYhz5536 Long live the king!
They're back and also never left
The Decemberists and James Mercer teaming up for a song? I'm so glad this happened!
Getting good Beach Boys vibes here. Looking forward to the album.
Same. Sloop John b. Not mad about it.
Nice jangle pop
I thought it was a BB cover
I thought it couldn’t get better than the chorus - and then the brass hit!
Surprise horn solo!
74 yr old who has fallen in love with this song. Just bought it to add to my playlist.
My favorite song atm
Been a long time since I’ve used the expression “favorite song.” A whole album of jangle would really spoil us.
Like the Beach Boys chose to cover a whimsical Death Cab For Cutie darkness anthem. Raw perfection.
guitar and drum forward with muted vocals and memorable lyrics…be still my 60’s heart! ❤️
idk what i do without yall, i mean i live my life but when i hear new stuff im like oh yeah thats something i like better keep living this life :) thx
Digging the 'wall of sound' production
I'm so glad to hear new music from you all! ❤
Sweet song beautifully produced. The soft horns are a nice surprise.
Beautiful, but not sure how 'sweet' it is... seems to me like its about a suicide pact...
You guys made my Valentine’s Day much better
The harmonies, arrangement...heaven!
This is the song the oompa loompas sing as a kid is slowly melted into chocolate.
The Byrds meeting The Beach Boys
James Mercer in the back ground 😍
Man James Mercer's voice works so well with Colin's, I hope they collaborate more in the future.
Got me up and dancing! Love the retro 60's pop sound.
They've done it again, why am I crying? 😅
This song is next-level good. There is quite literally nothing wrong with this song at all.
That's gonna be a hit! 😁
I'm a sucker for the mid-60s California and British pop that I was raised on this song it's just so good
Welcome back!
No one else sounds like these legends! Welcome back
omgggg new Decemberists music?! and its a fun whimsical upbeat tune about chillin in the graveyard? fuck yeaaaah I'm ready
We miss you dad.. 😢
wouldn't a Shins + Decemberists tour collaboration be on the horizon? 🎸 .
I'd be gone for good 😉
Another great song by this terrific group. A beautiful song. Thanks guys.
This is such a fine song. It really hit me, not sure exactly what it means, but it seems to convey something special, nostalgia...love it!
Played on "Sunday Jukebox", April 21, 2024 ~ BeFM ~ Busan, South Korea
I am beyond hyped right now
UGH! The 6 year wait was worth it. This is brilliant. Can not wait for more
This is so Beatles-esque, I love it. This made my day!
More like Brian Wilson but okay
I feel Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys.
Beatles and Beach Boys = kindred spirits :-)
My daughter loves you guys ❤️ she's excited you're back!
Criminally underrated
Listening to this song as we drive into Seattle with the rain howling down great song for a great town very reminiscent of the birds gram parsons all the good ones
I'm so happy! new Decemberest song wasn't on my 2024 bingo card!
Holy hell, this is a bop! I thank my brother for showing me this song.
Love it. Lots of Beach Boys and a bit of Gram Parsons (Sin City) among the jangly goodness.
Been hearing this on The Spectrum lately and turning it up louder each time. Beauty.
So excited to see them in concert again this year. Such an upbeat tune
This is one of those beautiful songs that I just have to listen to on repeat. It is a mood. It steeps me in emotion.
I never heard of this group
...wow. what a song..I love when this happens...really I do..
I'd encourage you to look at more of their stuff! the decemberists are a gift that keeps on giving
📺 THANKS CBS Saturday Morning Show!
👐🏿 🎶
Still got it. I dont know what "it" is, but you still have it. I think it might be an accordion or something.
So far this has to be the coolest song to come from the 20's!
I desperately needed this serotonin- thanks for the wonderful tunes!!
The finest Tom Waits/Brian Wilson collaboration to date… 😏 genius…
Very Sloop John B ❤
This has absolutely made my day. This is the first thing that has been released since Ive been a fan and it feels like the Decemberists have been my favorite band forever!
We got introduced to this song live in Boston in the summer of '22. So great to hear it again.
In Philly for us. Looking forward to a new album and the new tour!
Almost let out a yelp of joy at my workplace when I saw a new video was in my feed. Thanks for brightening my day.
This one is stuck in my head. I grew up in the 60s and this sound is spot on. It’s going on my celebration of life playlist 😁
It's got like 4 directions to vocally harmonize terribly to in my car.
That's a win.
Thank god!
There's a certain kinda tranquility that comes along with listening to y'all's music 😊 god I missed it
Just did my annual listen of Hazards of Love a few days ago, and been binging your oldies regularly again. Perfect timing!
Omg new decemberists music?!?!????!!??????!!!!!!
This world's all wrong ...
Let's go where we belong
And the Carson Ellis Sepia is back, too!!
Please come back to play the Academy, Manchester UK. Love your music
welcome back!
Such a great song. Starting playing and I immediately thought "This sounds like The Shins". And then was pleasantly surprised to see Mercer on this one. Love it!
60s vibe. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
sloop john burial ground
Exactly..
lol "This is the worst trip I've ever been on" indeed!
Thank you! It was killing me that it reminded me of something.
@@InAHollowTreelol!
I thought the same thing , lol
I've been waiting anxiously for this new recording!!! It's here and so worth the wait!!! Thank you Decemberists for all the years of phenomenal music!!!
I just recently heard this on Soma FM Indie Pop Rock and I love it! It gives me vibes of an old school Stephen King's novel ending.
This is literally a perfect song. Cannot get enough.
I heard this on radio and had no idea it was a new tune...Bravo!!!
WOOOOO, been so excited since y'all announced this the other day
To me this sounds so much like early Belle & Sebastian (we all have our different reference points but wow, even the horn break), love it!
Also, malaria can be treated!
Shins + Decemberists + Matthew Sweet? Math checks out.
🎶 This world's all wrong so let's go where we belong ❤
Love the horn!!!
Streamed this song the entire day straight on loop
Can't wait to hear the album(is there am album?!?).
Brilliant!!!!
There will be an album! They also released tour dates today if you’re curious.
It's all happening!! @@lenslighto7
So excited about this and the tour!!!!
Kind of reminds me of Sloop John B by the Beach Boys. Which is a good thing!
The Kingston Trio did that before the Beach Boys. There was a time when all I listened to was the Decemberists and The Kingston Trio.
Seen you all on CBS Saturday Morning sessions. And you all are awesome. Love y'alls music and tone. Great music. 🎶
Theyre coming to Pittsburghs Stage AE in May, I got tickets and cant fucking wait!!!! Theyve been my favorite band since 2008 or so and I've never seen them live. I'll have to bust out my old hipster garb I used to wear 10 years ago while riding my fixy bike.
Good to hear from you guys. Thanks again
strangely wonderful!
heard this for the first time at a festival in london two days ago - can’t get enough of it ❤ you’ve earned a new fan
AHHH saw this during pd 4, been playing on repeat since! Just now commenting tho, welcome back!
