You are the sun to the earth
You are the light of this world
Won't you see
Why won't you see
You are an arm I can't reach
You are the words I can't speak
Won't you say
Why won't you say
I will walk till I've no shadow
I will walk till I've no shadow

You twist the light in your hands
Losing thoughts so you move you can't give
Reasons fall from every storm that you lived
We move through the dark, helpless

You are the quiet in my soul
You are the pieces of gold
Won't you shine
Why won't you shine
I will walk till I've no shadow
I will walk till I've no shadow
I will walk till I've no shadow
I will walk till I've no shadow

Saw these guys live in Portland, OR in a small club several years ago — they absolutely rocked.  Especially the chick drummer.
So useless criticizing this band. 
Most original band. Personally, pure listening pleasure, along with The National.

They are sailing in their own waters, not Roger's.

Well then it's a good thing we get to listen to all the talent, originality, and ability of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club!

Butter smooth. Soft sweet melody

I assume you mean Floyd Mayweather - you can't possibly be comparing this monotonous dirge to Pink Floyd.

I love The Beatles.

What is it with BRMC and RP? Talk about overplayed. I'm thinking Bill and Rebecca must be secret band members maybe. Playing an avarage band to death will never a great band make them. If you don't believe me just go and ask Chris Martin of Coldplay! 

  Avg rating 7.1 out of over 600 use the PSD and move on, {#Stupid} assuming you maybe donate to RP,  I doubt it

I'm quite a fan of BRMC for their disturbing psychedelic/rock sound, but this song does what it says on the tin {#Sleep}
Good song but overplayed here.

Very Beatlesque.
Luv it!

he didn't do it today but yeah you are correct, 
the thought of it does sounds brilliant
Brilliant move from the Beatles' Blackbird!
Sweet tune, Mike B. must have been so proud of his son...how could you not be.  Great band overall of course, I would not want to diminish their collective  contributions.
Hopefully the surgery wasn't performed by Ben Carson.....  {#Cowboy}

Glad to see that Leah's surgery went well and she is recovering. (Drummer. She had brain surgery.) Check out the Facebook page and put a dollar in the helmet toward her expenses if you are inclined.

 


Now find a good The Call segue....

Holey Camoley! Flawless segue from Blackbird into this! 

 
Agreed - the guitar melody snuck its way into this song, same key, same kind of feel... chills.

Incredible transition from Blackbird. WOW!

Superb.  ↑8 from me.  Gets better with each hearing.

Enjoyed the seamless segue from "Blackbird" to "Lullaby". Nice work, RP.
WHOOOOOAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice
I pull this song around me like a favorite blanket and settle in. Very enjoyable.
Everybody in my mushrooming multitude of homeless camps loves this song...
....oh so fluid and drea..m...y....
One of my favourite bands, may be not this track, but the album is pretty good.  I understand this band is a little overplayed, but I like it and obviously Bill really does.
Horribly overplayed band.

Agreed wholeheartedly. Beautiful song from a likewise stellar album.

6, I could rate it better, but it sounds as early Radiohead+U2+Beatles, RP listeners are quite right.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - BRMC:  Robert Levon Been, Peter Hayes, Leah Shapiro


It is understood that rock music can find various forms of expression, and may take harmonious melodies, and when designed well in song format, can become "key players" in the characterization of the artists or bands, assuming a character of longevity and resistance in time. But I believe are the most difficult to obtain. For example songs "Lullaby", "Mercy" and "Fine Way To Lose". So that often can overlap with other musical parts over dizzying, raucous and glamorous sounds.


I love this...and no one paid me to say that!
Nice way to start the day.
Perfect.. well within a thanks giving set...
Wow, totally unexpected from BRMC, and so beautiful.
Pain emotes from just about every song I've heard from this album. This isn't a bad thing...just an observation. Actually, I quite like everything I've heard so far.

This song is good for the ears...

Doesn't this sound a bit beatlesque, or just a hint of John Lennon ?

  Probably will be. Very cool song, I think.

Like this song more every time I hear it.

They hardly sound "just like Radiohead". Maybe a bit like some Bends-era stuff, but I'm not sure that's a bad thing...
Why do they need to sound just like RadioHead? PSD.
As I have mentioned on other threads - this is a must buy for any BRMC fan - one of their best IMHO.
Sounds like the beginning of the guitar riff from Blackbird played in half-time.  Good stuff as always from BRMC!
