It's rare that I identify so completely with a band and its music as I did with this one. It absolutely broke my heart when they decided to break up because it just wasn't sustainable to keep making music.
Still my favorite band. Been listening to them since they performed Bible Belt on Watch Listen Tell. Have all their albums in Apple Music. This is one of my favorite songs by them. ❤ So good!
The talent in this band is unreal. I heard the chambers and the valves and just fell in love with it and I foolishly thought "ah this will be their best song by a mile though, the rest won't be so good"
I don't think I've ever cried as much at a band's songs than I have with DTR. Unbelievably talented, it's not normal. Please announce a tour asap. I miss seeing you live - by far the best live band I've seen yet.
Незабываемая музыка, люблю вас и слушаю с амстердамской музыкальной прогулки в youtube. Не знаю, живы вы или нет, дружите или деретесь, оставили сцену молодыми или пятнистыми старцами. Вы добавили этому миру пространства, вечности и волшебства. Спасибо вам.
This band just keeps getting better and better. This is one of my favourites by Dry The River (so far!). I was at the barrier for their Reading Festival set and it was one of the greatest live performances I've ever seen. The vocals were even better live, as were the instruments. They deserve so much more recognition!
"It started with the moon that turned an inexpensive room into St. Peters. There’s a parabolic story, but it’s boring and it ends how you’d expect. Forever dressing down I’m like a stranger hanging round outside the kingdom hall. I’d ‘ve carried your wedding shawl, you could’ve said I was a school friend. And you drag your holy horse cart in the sky when I wake up they say it’s just the sun but I know that face. Excavating down you’d find the drowning and the drowned and then there’s us, babe. You could walk to our memorial, but it’s pourring and it ends how you’d expect. I dig your dresses out and hang ‘em round about the house and turn the lights down low. Now you’re everywhere I go looking faintly disappointed. And you drag your holy horse cart in the sky when I wake up they say it’s just the sun but I know that face. But the devil’s tricks just seem to sit so light on you. They’d never get the marionette this tight on you. In the parliamentary houses there’ll be talk of what this is with inexpert witnesses and evidence against us. But I’ll take my pound of substance from those insubstantial men. Whatever their arguments, I’ll prove your innocence. Drag your holy horse cart in the sky when I wake up, oh yeah. Testify allegiance with more puncture wounds than Jesus, oh yeah. Every statue’s weeping honey and it makes my sight go funny ‘cause I’m over sympathetic and I can’t control myself. Leave that painful memory in the garden of Gethsemane, oh yeah, oh yeah.”
Dry the river just keeps delivering music with so much heart, one of my absolute favourite bands of all time. And on top of that they are amazing live performers. Just brilliant!
I absolutely adore this song, and i'm really into music like this, and whenever i get my friends to listen to this, the don't really like it which i think is displeasing as the majority of the younger audience, end up listening to superficial stuff, instead of real music like this, so i'm glad i've gotten a good insight into good music
This is such a criminally underrated song that it hurts, under half a million views and I could swear with ease that at least a couple hundred are mine.
Amazing new song from an amazing band. Seen them live several times (at huge festivals and small intimate venues), and they are always so good. They just keep getting better.
Dry The River - Gethsemane Lyrics Album: Alarms in the Heart It started with the moon That turned an inexpensive room Into Saint Peter's There's a parabolic story But it's boring and it ends How you'd expect Forever dressing down I'm like a stranger hanging round Outside the Kingdom Hall I'd have carried your wedding shawl You could have said I was a school friend And you drag your holy horse-cart In the sky. When I wake up They say it's just the sun But I know that face Excavating down You'd find the drowning And the drowned And then there's us babe You could walk to our memorial But its pouring And it ends how you'd expect I dig your dresses out and hang them Roundabout the house And turn the lights down low Now you're everywhere I go Looking faintly disappointed And you drag your holy horse-cart In the sky. When I wake up They say it's just the sun But I know that face And the devil's tricks Just seem to sit so light on you. They'd never get the marionette This tight on you In the parliamentary houses there'll be talk of what this is With an expert witnesses And evidence against us But I'll take my pound of substance From those insubstantial men Whatever their arguments I'll prove your innocence Drag your holy horse-cart in the sky When I wake up - oh yeah! Testify allegiance with more puncture wounds than Jesus Oh yeah! Every statue's weeping, honey and it makes my sight go funny Cuz I'm over sympathetic And I can't control myself Leave that painful memory in the garden of gethsemane! Oh yeah! Dry The River - Gethsemane
Dry the River, please please keep doing what you're doing. You are incredibly talented and I can't even put into words how grateful I am for your hauntingly beautiful music and lyrics. Love love love. X
Ser de México y creer que soy la única persona que conoce a Dry the river, de lo que se pierden. Son brillantes!, y se que no leerán mi mensaje o no lo entenderán pero espere demaciado por una canción de ustedes, los amo.
***** Dios. Enserio que me alegro de saber que por lo menos hay pocas personas que me entenderán ya que es feo que nos tachen de malos gustos sólo porque no concordamos en el mismo artista o grupo! gracias chicos! me acaban de alegrar el día
man this song gets to me in a way i didn't think was possible-DTR always impresses and i'm still not disappointed. thanks for making this music. it's much different than everything else out there and it's so… reassuring?? i really don't know how to describe it.
I love everything about this song and video - from the lyrics and music down to the details such as Pete's gestures, the way Scott's hair looks like a shampoo commercial :D, the choice of clothes and location for the video, their visible exhaustion at the end since they'd just put 110% of themselves into the performance...Dry the River have outdone themselves again :)
EPIC! I love this band and I'm liking the kind of new approach to this new album with it being slightly rockier than Shallow Bed. They are the masters of the crescendo!
Sério, é tão triste que uma banda tão incrível quanto essa tenha acabado, eles com certeza mereciam mais reconhecimento. Cada música me toca na alma e eu sou realmente grata por ter conhecido a banda ainda em atividade. Pena que eu não pude ter ido a uma apresentação ao vivo, tenho certeza que teria sido uma experiência fantástica...
Oh dear, oh dear, at last, a new album! I couldn't wait to hear something new, but at the same time I wondered if they could they get any better. They exceeded my expectations and hopes. Come to Poland, please! I missed your two concerts and still can't over that. Hearing you guys live is one of my biggest dreams.
Lads, you have a pretty decent plot for a horror film: "I'd dig your dresses out and hang 'em round about the house and turn the lights down low now you're everywhere I go looking faintly disappointed"
