"I'm waiting in the wings while the trees undress & cupping my ear to hear the wind confess..." That is all I have to say. Simply read those lyrics. Amazing song.
I'd never seen or heard anything from Gregory Alan Isakov until recently. It's part of the OST of a film that I watched two days ago, Lazy Eye. I've ordered it from Amazon and I feel it's going to be a long-last relationship. His work is amazing.
it's like he's singing for his self, and that's awesome. it's like he's sitting in his front porch and drinking whiskey and watches his wheat farm while sunset, in.. I don't know.. Colorado
Another who plays Pickathon, and gets a following that fest has introduced me from everyone from my homie Langhorne, to Billy, Shakey, man the list just goes and goes…. Live and breathing have some of their best but… Got tix to see GAI at RRocks Sept 1&2 🙏 the symphony backs him one night. He’s a poet, storyteller and he killed Roo this year. But he’s been around for well over a decade, the man has some incredible talent. No flash, just authenticity
Gregory reminds me of my internal conversations of love and live / live and love. He distills this in to a melodically honest yet edgie sound and lyrical image. Thanks for the art. Wes Stiger
All of my heroes sit up straight They stare at the ground They radiate Me, I'm mumbling in the kitchen for the sun to pay up Lonely is a ring on a cold coffee cup I'm some sick hound Digging for bones If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone My hands they were strangers lost in the night They're waving around in the dusty light I'm waiting in the wings while the trees undress Cupping my ear to hear the wind confess I'm a ghost in the garden Scaring the crows If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone I'm running from nothing, no thoughts in my mind Oh my heart was all black But I saw something shine Thought that part was yours, but it might just be mine I could share it with you, if you gave me the time I'm all bloody knuckles, longing for home If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone I'm a shot through the dark I'm a black sinkhole If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone

I love how this song makes me feel.
Perfect comment
Greg is such a good role model for all of this generation.He carry’s a story of the past.
WOW. I think is is the best song I've ever heard. Such nice cadence. And the lyrics are amazing.
Phenomenal. There's not a song he's made that I've ever not loved.
The guy on the violin is amazing too.
Best live show I’ve ever seen.

That's exactly what its like. Very honest performance.
Really, he grows wheat? I thought he was into pumpkins and other odd veggies.

So much talent can't wait to see him play live when the the show hits the road
Wow! That's an amazingly beautiful song and performance by the Isakov brothers. Thumbs up all around.
I love them so friggin much.

Greg is great. I love his music.
James McCombe I just call him guy(GAI)lol
I love this song...❤
I can see this song playing at the wedding of maybe an older couple who lost their long time loves but find a second chance at love.
That will be mine
When one door closes we pray for that second and so forth to never close and remain open. Will one remain open or choose to be alone?
Greg rocks!
All of my heroes sit up straight
They stare at the ground
They radiate
Me, I'm mumbling in the kitchen for the sun to pay up
Lonely is a ring on a cold coffee cup
I'm some sick hound
Digging for bones
If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone
My hands they were strangers lost in the night
They're waving around in the dusty light
I'm waiting in the wings while the trees undress
Cupping my ear to hear the wind confess
I'm a ghost in the garden
Scaring the crows
If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone
I'm running from nothing, no thoughts in my mind
Oh my heart was all black
But I saw something shine
Thought that part was yours, but it might just be mine
I could share it with you, if you gave me the time
I'm all bloody knuckles, longing for home
If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone
I'm a shot through the dark
I'm a black sinkhole
If it weren't for second chances, we'd all be alone
F*ckin awesome!
When I was a kid The Who were not my favorite band; I liked who’s next. But, their tag line was “maximum r &b”. That was kool.
Really getting some Nick Drake vibes from this song.
I agree,Nick and Gregory are my favorite!
