I found this on your ipod when we were cleaning out your room. It broke me in spirit but brought me closer than I had ever been to you. You will forever be known as the best friend I could ever have. My thanks goes out to The Head and the Heart for allowing this heartfelt connection. RIP to my best friend Morgan Byrd Dawson. Love ya brother.

Wow. Nice Evan. I started listening to Thath at the beginning while a good friend was dying. This and Lost in my mind bring me back to the days of driving him to chemo and the peacefulness of THATH allowing him to rest on the 2 hour drive home. Love you Cork and I will see you again
I love how everyone is hating on the radio... I heard this song today on the radio in Milwaukee. Radio is not dead, you just have to listen to the stations that support local, independent, and new music
This is the best song i've heard in a while and I have been listening to it 3 days STRAIGHT! Spread the word on theses guys, they're gonna big.

Well this aged well
if i was ever to be in a band i want it be similar to these guys
Just plain beautiful...well done. I am thankful that bands like this are still out there writing/recording music that will hopefully pass the test of time...a record of humanity as it is. Again, well done...
Oh my god. This melody goes straight to your heart. This is music.
they are insane live! their concerts must be unbelievable. it feels so good to see some genuine talent and enjoy some genuine music. and to know that they totally deserve the success they are starting to deserve.
I'm so glad to hear original singer-songwriter music like this--soulful, sincere, and beautifully arranged, beautifully acoustic.

these guys never disappoint me! I can't explain how I feel bout their songs.
I'm so glad I just discovered The Head and the Heart today
I remember the first time I head them on the radio....I was shocked because it was only like two months before that when they were playing at a round in Tacoma....They have so much passion and are amazing to watch. I can't even describe the feeling you get when they get on stage without a drummer and start banging there feet and just really getting into it...I love them so much!! I wish there were more artists like them.
Thanks to bands like The Head and the Heart gives me reason to believe that my generation will have great bands like the 60's and 70's had. Yes very bold statement but I am extremely thankful. Keep up the great work guys and look forward to seeing you live in a month.
listen to them every morning.
The head, the heart, iron, and wine. What a fantastic combination.
I can't even turn on the radio station anymore, all that's ever on is a bunch if complete talentless shit. But when I find bands like this, bands that have raw talent and put heart and soul into their music without care to show emotion. It lightens my day. Good to know there are still musicians out there that actually have musical talent.
My favorite part of this song is hearing my 9 years old son singing it...
this is true talent.
I got goosebumps as soon as she started playing that violin.
this song gave me chills... i was in seattle for vacation last week and was lucky to have herd them on kexp! =D
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways... I love this band! All those parts and harmonies - reminds me of Fleetwood Mac, but different.
I totally know what you mean. It gives me peace of mind for some reason, its so beautiful
Saw them in Seattle last night open for death cab. The amount of energy and stage presence they put off easily made them the main attraction. Total fan now.
Saw these guys open for Vampire Weekend back in Septemeber. Haven't stoped thinking about their music since then.
Great bands, with real talent or at the same level live as they are in studio. This is epic.
Such a beautiful tune! Both my head and heart and every other part of me are swaying with these sounds. Keep it up gang :)
They don't just perform the song, they live it
After seeing them in Bellingham two days ago and then in Vancouver BC last night I think I can honestly say they are my new favorite band! Amazing Live!!
An amazing song. Love the head and the heart.
BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Going to see these guys in DC on the 29th. I really can't wait. I haven't stopped listening to them since I discovered them a few months ago.
saw them in atlanta last night. absolutely amazing, one of the best live shows i've seen in a while.
I have watched this so many times.
Beautiful!
This is such a great song!
One more for the stars and the eyes of the walls, I saw your face and, I heard you call me out. I saw your face in the crowd and you came out. Just like the sun and the moon and the stars at night, there was a sign on the door and reads to me, just like the sun and the stars and the moon at night..... Brilliant.
lord have mercy on my ruff and rowdy ways...
I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade Like ridin' around on railcars and workin' long days Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways Call it one drink too many Call it pride of a man But it don't make no difference if you sit or you stand 'Cause they both end in trouble and start with a grin Yeah they both end in trouble and start with a grin We do it over and over and over again We do it over and over and over again Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh I know there's California, Oklahoma And all of the places I ain't ever been to but Down in the valley with Whiskey rivers These are the places you will find me hidin' These are the places I will always go These are the places I will always go I am on my way I am on my way I am on my way back to where I started Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh One more for the stars and their eyes in the walls I hail your face and then, I saw you standing out I saw your face in the crowd and you came out You saw me crossing the valley and you came in Look at the sign on the door and it reads to me Just like the grass and the sign when you walked in Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh I am on my way I am on my way I am on my way back to where I started California, Oklahoma And all of the places I ain't ever been to but Down in the valley with Whiskey rivers These are the places you will find me hidin' These are the places I will always go These are the places I will always go So I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
This song is so underated
LOVE them!!!!!
Heard this for the first time today on the radio on my way to work. Had to search for it on youtube. Waited 3 songs later to find out the title and artist.
Saw them with Dave & Tim in Seattle. I downloaded their music at the concert. Loving it ever since.
Head And The Heart Album PURCHASED :} so good....thank you KEXP for the introduction :}
this radio has such good tunes
This was 10 years ago? Wow I remember this coming out. Cliche but time flies.
thats just awsome
go see these guys live! awesome
how does this not have a million views?!
AWESOME
Excellent!!!!
The songs that this band comes up with are incredible. So many different parts and intricacies, soulful lyrics, and so many great things I could say. The one thing that is not allowing me to fully commit to 100% loving this band is the inconsistant vocals, especially in the harmonies. It kills it for me. Otherwise, they're amazing!
wow, what a song!
This song touches me. Heart and soul. ;) :)
This song inspires me
So beautiful!!!! I heard this on Pandora a few days ago and had no idea who they were. Now I know! :)
Heard of the band...but never any of their music before today. A old friend who i worked w/ @ a Schlotzky's deli told me to check 'em out, specifically this song. Was burnt out on all the same old stuff i'd listened to for years, looking for something new, something great....Boy, was she right. THIS is new, THIS is great! Thank You Erin. :-)
@SebasLovesYou same, saw them with the decemberists. purchased their album as soon as i got home.
damn, i just listend it fifth time in a row XD - its really awesome
Who's here in 2023?
Saw them with Iron & Wine last night! AMAZING.
I was fortunate enough to see them perform as the opening act for Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds at McCaw Hall in Seattle on December 6th, 2010. I love Dave's stuff, but they were a hard act to follow, even for Dave and Tim. ;)
Nailed it
I think I'm going to make a few more youtube accounts so that i can like this more than once.
Makes me want to get explore Seattle
please keep it that way!
i saw these guys live at bumbershoot! i was so moved by the sound!
100% agree!
why are they so good live? jeesus
Cannot wait to see these guys at Sasquatch
3:00 > end of the song : Epic moment...
F**** brilliant ! Killer bunch, killer skills : love the lyrics, the beat, the voice ... Thanks for easing up my mind ! Please let us know when hit Belgium (again)
I love it when bands sound the same live as they do on record
@psychoticgoldphish I know what you mean. Saw them with iron and wine, this song was the only song that almost made me cry. I don't cry.
Bonnaroo!!!!!!!!!
that's inspiring
watching them open up for Dave matthews next wed. in Charlotte ,never heard of them before but they sound pretty good.
oh this song
I love you!
Down in the Valley is one of our favorites. Give our song "Hey Locomotive" a listen.
she is so cute and talented... wish she was single
@Conorxixam Well, at the very least they are going to Charlotte. They're opening for Dave Matthews Band on 5/23.
@VAD3RX i saw them too! it was awesome!
@Josh0889 i hope your right about that. they are amazing
@EpicTaleMedia Agreed! I feel the same way...thank goodness for radio stations like WXPN...check them out at xpn.org. I've heard Head and the Heart on there several times.
start getting the chills at 3:20
Who is that one person!? goddamned, stitch that unlike thumb where the sun never shines!

💙💛💙...
Sounds like Mumford and Sons. That's a good thing.
@pseudogenesis I was there as well and it was amazing.
@VAD3RX I was there too. Pretty damn good.
Heard this on wfuv this afternoon, studio versions harmonies are a little tighter, but still a great performance. They put on a good live show? I would tthink so
@ukeolaylay Me toooo...!
@VAD3RX YUP! I was in SF and they killed
@iRRM1994 David Guetta is a completely different genre of music. He makes good music in his own right and is extremely good at what he does. Just like The Head and the Heart.
cool shades B)
@MTNBUM5 same
SASQUATCH 2011&2012!!! awwwh yeaauh!
