if there is a heaven I imagine it sounds and feels as relaxing as this. This song reminds me to enjoy life as a ride and stop trying to constantly control it.
Gosh Daniel Romano looks so young haha where have all the years gone. Still remember hearing city and colour for the first time in 2008 in a car driving alongside the beach with friends.
My absolute favorite version of this absolutely amazing song. It's my go to song when I'm sad or stressed or anxious or having a hard day. It reminds me that we've all got a dark side. Sigh. So much beauty in the music of Dallas Green. Thank you for sharing your beauty with the world.
My goodness they both look like babies here. RU-vid made a playlist for me and this video was in it so I just decided to leave a comment here to say that City & Colour really carried my Fall experience in high school. Discovering Dallas and his music was something I won’t ever forget about. His fashion sense at this time was the reason why I started wearing coats for a while hahah.
Micah straub !! Listen to these music critics !!!! They're all commenting if there is a 3rd guitar, or if the couch they're sitting on reminds them of their Grandma's couch, or if the guitar is tuned to a different planet's liking. Holy Shit people !!! Sit back , listen and enjoy. In fact, put this song on full blast ! With your headphones on and close your eyes and just listen to how beautiful this is. Have a good night. I said goodnight !!!
I think you're all missing the point... It's a good advertising tool, and it works - personally I wouldn't have looked up his music if it wasn't for seeing his name in these Verge sessions and I'm glad I did. No biggie.
Gino DiLorenzo Man, that guy playing guitar with Dallas Green is Daniel Romano of Attack in Black and, well, who makes his own solo music. This guy is one of the best canadian songwriters I know working today... Great, great stuff! Check him out... Check out Liberties by Attack in Black, Years by One Thousand Fingertips, his solo western stuff... Songs like Time Forgot (To Change My Heart). Yeah!
a coma might feel better then this but if i was in one i wouldn't be able to listen to this you guys should do more stuff together maybe an album reminding me of how good simon and paul were
agreed. daniel romano is just like the greats, Waylon and Merle had their names on the strap. Romano is a great but still alive and playing well! The new album is perfect country!
Great song, fantastic recording! Crystal clear sparkling - everything fits with this clip. Guitars, microphones, room, mixing. Wish we had more of this quality recordings on youtube. Great job from everyone who was involved!
Daniel Romano rocks!! His solo album was released recently!! He is so INCREDIBLY talented. He hit the charts with Attack in Black, Daniel, Fred and Julie, started his own record label (You've Changed Records) and now his second solo album is just unbelievably AMAZING!! NOt to say his first wasn't, it's just that Sleep Beneath the Willow is beyond words!! Thanks for the great entertainment!!! Obviously Dallas appreciates your talent too!!
@kylieBBQ I agree -- I just saw City and Colour for the first time with Daniel playing alongside Dallas and it was a really awesome new sound to take in.
@masterofbattery That's a vintage 1942 martin 0-17. And I've already checked, it ranges from $4000 - $6000. But it's such a beautiful and bright sounding guitar
when i saw him at a concert, Daniel actually played and sang some songs in the first set. he was really good. and later on, Daniel played guitar ( and assuming backup vocal as well:p) with Dallas Green.
First of all, I think jvcke is right about tuning the G string up to an A is right, which means that the best version ver 2 on ultimate guitar does not match. The best way to learn the song is to try and figure out what chords Dallas is playing. Sometimes Daniel plays that exact same chord and depending on the camera angle, it is easier to see Daniel's finger position. Man this is a good song.
well said.. Oh how I miss attackinblack... You should also check out Daniel, Fred and Julie.. I've seen him play live with attack, city and colour and Daniel, Fred and Julie and every time I am blown away by how talented he is. Not to mention when Grey Kingdom opened for city and colour he played drums.. apparently he can do it all.
@kylieBBQ i think his finger picking in this song makes it. hes actually an excellent guitarist, and im very happy to see Dallas has been keeping him around so much
I think Daniel Romano deserves more respect than some people are giving him. I agree, Dallas doesn't NEED anyone to sing background. but it's a nice change, and music should never be stagnant. Daniel's voice add something new different; it does not detract from the Dallas' beautiful voice. I trust Dallas' musical judgement implicitly.
I know for a fact you can play the song in standard, but for the original version of it he is in an alternate tuning. which I want to learn because me and my friends are doing a whole studio remake of it video and all for class XD
@wetfrombirth84 of course he doesn't need anyone. he's dallas green. but im diggin the direction he's taking city and colour with using a full band and shit.
