I wait more and more anxiously for the next BB album ... and just when I I think it can't possibly get any better .... they blow me away with the magic that this is
Lyrics : The speed of love returning, to my depraved heart Like a song, it carries the memory still You waited til' the river froze, to come and find me With your voice, speaking the words of my throat That dream you dream of falling, out of the blue child Like a stone, think I've been dreaming with you We were never forced to love You would have to lose your mind You would have to lose your mind You would have to lose your mind When Icarus was falling Burning and blinded He was born and buried along with his pride Woke up in the bed last night Her features were golden And the walls, they were crowded with symbols of lust And then, an emperor returning Dragging his sword from the guerre, cutting the snow on the ground We were never forced to love You would have to lose your mind You would have to lose your mind You would have to lose your mind The line that you were drawing Out in the sand, girl You would have to lose your mind Your mind (x9)
This song is so magical. Hiked through the Sierras this summer and the slow burn got me up so many mountain passes. I just love the moment when the drums finally really kick in with snare at 5:02... it's the most satisfying build ever.
- Easy the best slow song of 2017 - In a year where Pitchfork, Fader and more just talk about hip hop. I definitely refuse to omit this magnificent and meaningful piece of music. It is so crafted and sensitive just like The BB music. I need to find out the root of the song.
I just saw them last night, in a quaint synagogue in Brooklyn. Superb band, great song writing and although the acoustics of the venue were poor this band came through with flying colors. I am mind blown that they are not playing at Madison Square Garden to a sold out crowd. Great albums and wonderful lyrics; these Canadians deserve a lot better, for sure. The good thing is I dropped $30 bucks to see a band I would pay $150 to see. I wish them all the very best & they sure as hell deserve it. I look forward to The Barr Brothers next gig in New York City.
The Barr Brothers The speed of love returning, to my depraved heart Like a song, carries the memory still You waited 'til the river froze, to come and find me With your voice, speaking the words of my throat That dream you dream of falling, out of the blue, child Like a stone, think I've been dreaming with you We were never forced to love You would have to lose your mind You would have to lose your mind You would have to lose your mind When Icarus was falling Burning and blinded He was born and buried along with his pride Woke up in her bed last night Her features were gold And the walls, they were buried with symbols of lust And then, an emperor returning Dragging his sword from the guerre Cutting the snow on the ground We were…
I just clicked on this song in Spotify, in my suggested feed. As of writing this I haven't heard another song. But I think this is a new favorite artist from this one song. I love Lord Huron, and this hits a similar note.
For those who dont know. "The Barr brothers" had another band called The slip and its just amazing, I would say at the same level as properly, The Barr Brothers
