Gettin' reminders, our freedom
Instant power that we don't control
And it's just like that, trees are dyin'
In the mind of the road
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
A transit, only passenger
On the mind of the road
Deep cutting holy acid
We've been gone for a war
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gettin' reminders, our freedom
Instant power that we don't control
And it's just like that, trees are dyin'
In the mind of the road
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Instant power that we don't control
And it's just like that, trees are dyin'
In the mind of the road
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
A transit, only passenger
On the mind of the road
Deep cutting holy acid
We've been gone for a war
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gettin' reminders, our freedom
Instant power that we don't control
And it's just like that, trees are dyin'
In the mind of the road
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Love this.
Had me at the sound of the horn from Beirut (Zach, likely). Very recognizable!
The trumpet solo is perfect here.
Picking up that I'm digging Beirut's sound quite a lot...heard it floating around on this track and, of course, had to stop what I was doing to confirm. Thanks, William and Co., now could you please let me know what I was doing before I was so pleasantly interrupted?
thought it was 'Efterlang' and wondered about it following k.d.'s version of a Neil Young tune
I'm quite liking this!
Heard this for the first time tonight, immediately bought the single!

Jeeezis. play some actual music would ya'... A lot of whining and a Casio keyboard. No actual compositional skill involved. Just crap.

I hear no keyboards at all in this. I hear guitar, percussion, and a beautiful trumpet solo from Beirut — all in service of a very thoughtful & lovely song.
Very much "actual music", in other words.
I don't usually call people out on their opinions, but sometimes you're just... wrong.

Thanks so much again for the wonderful musical gifts.
