Stars of our stars.
Dreams of my dreams.
You come to me
Singing " The Stars Of Our Stars".
The stars of our stars
Came up the first day.
The moon did set.
The sun comes up.
And all the stars did disappear.
Stars of our stars.
Dreams of my dreams.
You come to me
Dancing to "The Stars Of Our Stars".
The stars of our stars
Came up the second day.
The moon did set.
The sun comes up.
And all the stars did disappear.
Times at night in the spill of light
You catch a glimpse.
You make a start with an eager heart,
But it always slips.
And then everything shifts.
Stars of our stars.
Dreams of my dreams.
You come to me
Trailing "The Stars Of Our Stars".
The stars of our stars
Will come up the third day.
The moon will set.
The sun comes up.
And all the stars will disappear.

It might not "rock" but it is better than instant bloody karma.
Guitar riff does remind me of Bush's Glycerine
this does not rock

The android from Star Trek:The Next Generation, based on the lines. "Why" is a mystery to me.

One of those songs that makes me turn the volume up just a little more. Margo's vocals are like that, and the bass line closes the deal on this song.
Great Tune
Hate.
At primary school, my peers would express strong preferences by using words like hate with gusto.
At home, I grew up on Nazi occupation stories and heard the terms 'hate' and 'loath' being used in a very different context. When family members are being summarily executed in retaliation for sabotage committed by terrorists, the negative feelings run deep.
I never use the term 'hate' except to describe the emotions suffered when one group violently abuses another.
North Americans are lucky. North America has gone several generations without war on North American soil. The term 'hate' has been subverted to express preferences over consumer goods and services.

Retreat to your secret temple to recover from an innocuous piece of music? Wow.

Love the Cowboy Junkies, this in particular is a good track.

love this song... love this album...
Everybody in my church loves this marvelous song...
Used to dig them, but I can't get into them these days (2004 is recent enough I guess). And I would never buy any of their music due to her alignment with the head of the Canadian record lobby. Bill might as well play some Metallica.
Unremarkable. Oh wait, I just remarked. But I did it while yawning.

The music of this band is pretty boring. But since I hear them so often on RP I start to wonder what am I missing.
Oh joy unbounded - an entire day of great RP music without a single second of Arcade Fire to take the shine off.
Thanks Bill !

I'm digging this. I'd pretty much written off the Junkies by the mid-90s, but this is pretty good. Don't know if I can reconcile liking the music but not liking Margo and her husband, who is the head of the Canadian RIAA, CRIA. Oh, well.
Different sound.
guess Margo got some therapy

Pretty much the only Cowboy Junkies song I can take anymore. No disrespect to them or their fans, but most of thier music puts me sleep faster than mainlining Ambien. This one, on the other hand, is positiviely perky!
I love anything C.J.!!

Fell in love in Kelowna while the 'Trinity Sessions' was just released. Margo makes me think of that woman now.
Nice memories. Moonlight, water, lust.

I to am starting to become enraptured with the Cowboy Junkies.
I also told several many friends about RP and that I have been hearing them here.
They are fans of RP if nothing else now, a few have actually bought some disks already one is an over the road truck driver, he got this CJ disk and totally loves it.

The CJs are my favorite. They are true to their nature, do what they want, when they want and Michael Timmons is a virtual genius songwriter.

what a cool tune.
that guitar riff seems to me to be just like Bush's "Glycerine" chord for chord
I remember my rocker friends freaking out hearing for the first time a Dinosaur Junior tune being covered by the Junkies.
I remember there eyes opening to a new world of music.
Very cool band... I saw them and Blue Rodeo a long time ago it was a wonderful night.
I like Simon Keeper off this release quite a lot. It was quite thoroughly raked when it played many weeks ago (and hasn't been heard from since). But I agree with other posts; this a weaker effort by the Junkies.
This is definitely one of their weaker efforts. I'm a huge CJ fan and have been a little disappointed in this entire album.

CJ at little old Hoyt Sherman theatre was a real treat, one of the most intimate shows i've seen. While I'm not in love with any particular album of theirs, I'd see them any chance given.

And here's a tip next time you see her in concert - Margot really likes to get flowers at the start of the show :nodhead:

I just wish folks would stop harping on the Junkies for keeping the same "sound" for so long. They found something they like and have stuck with it. You can tell that when you see them live. They're not posers or chameleons changing their tune with every change of the wind. I relish the fact that I can depend onthem putting out some of the best mellow rock/blues. Their music is some of the best around for driving to late at night or relaxing to with a beer after a long day at work.

that fuzzy guitar is such a bummer...
Don't think so - unless Michael Timmin's daughter (6 years old) is a Paula Cole fan.
Cause Michael wrote the song based on something his daughter made up and sang for him.

I like the song they did on the disc: Por Vida A Tribute To The Songs Of Alejandro Escovedo. It is called "don't need you". Or maybe it sounds good cause I am trying to get over a man...lol!

Not the best song they've ever done - but better than most music out there.
What's really amusing about this song is that its genesis was in a "song writing" session between Michael Timmin's and his 6 year old (I think that's her age) daughter.

It was on the Paste sampler recently, issue #10 I think.
The more I hear of Cowboy Junkies, the more I like.
