it is pretty goddamn good...It makes me happy that there are people out there appreciating the same things that I am...we are all connected in some way shape or form
There is something very special about Cotton Jones. It's such simple music, and yet about as beautiful as it gets at the same time. The heart-felt melodies really resonate with me. I hope as the band becomes more popular they never lose this raw and emotional edge.
Michael Nau is one of those artists whose music I instantly connected with the first time I heard it. Totally makes sense that Scott McMikken mentioned him on Amoebas’s “what’s in my bag” series. This stuff is pure soul. Whoever listens to this kind of music, y’all are the real ones.
Everything has turned around I was standing by the passing train Might've coughed in the rain Dropped a dollar down the gutter drain Everything has turned around Been waiting for a little change When finally it came I just waited for another Waited for another You know I'm the changer The rearranger I'm always a stranger And a liar Got a tongue on fire I ought to cut it off I ought to cut it off And when I do, when I do I'm gonna let you know Gonna, gonna, gonna let you know 'Cause everything has turned around Now I'm sleeping in a garden bed Tryin' to clear my head Sittin', , waitin' to be fed 'Cause everything has turned around Two ears above the budding grass Let the hours pass Always gonna catch the next one Gonna catch the next one You know I'm a waiter The hesitater I will get to it later But I'm a liar Got a tongue on fire Ought to cut it off Ought to cut it off Ought to cut it off You know I'm the changer The rearranger I'm always a stranger I'm always a stranger I'm always a stranger And the liar Got a tongue on fire I ought to cut it off I ought to cut it off And when I do, when I do I'm gonna let you know Then I think I'm gonna let you know (I ought to cut it off, I ought to cut it off, I ought to cut it off) Then I think I'm gonna let you know (I ought to cut it off, I ought to cut it off, I ought to cut it off) You know I'm a changer The rearranger I'm always a stranger You know I'm a waiter A hesitater Gonna get to it later
I had the good fortune to meet Whitney after their show in Chapel Hill, NC last weekend. And she is every bit as sweet as her voice sounds. They played a great show. So glad I got to see em.
BarnyWaterg8 At the very least, the female singer went to middle and high school with me in Maryland, dunno if her hubby or any of the others grew up there as well.
i just found this song… life’s falling apart slowly. i don’t have the will in me to want 2 be better. i just get high and act like everything’s okay. not a person to call home. this song makes everything feel okay. :)
Great track, and such a genuine folksy sound not common from bands these days...a little bit of an Edward Sharpe feel, and great chemistry between frontman and lady singer. Hope to see these guys soon in Georgia.
Sublime purity of melody and soul, you humans have. Thanks, so much for enriching my life. Beers all night on me if you come to Leicester. And I can arrange a gig too if you like?
