new song

**roshea999** · 02-20-2018, 04:07 PM

Sounds better than the pure comedy stuff. I like the line about Isbell

i have such a hard time figuring out wtf he is talking about in his songs...like i don’t need my songwriting to be completely linear or anything, and i’m not trying to be facetious, but what is that song even about?

I think reading the lyrics helped me a bit

He's a mess on the outside - hotel staff telling him to tone it down, sober isbell worried about him, but in his mind he's feeling good, feeling fine on a cloud above an island in his mind.

druggy atmosphere reminds me of the fear fun stuff - always welcome to me.

I wonder if his new album also mentions Ryan’s breakdown somewhere.

sure, i mean i “get” what it’s about, but what is that kind of song supposed to make me understand or feel?

i guess that’s what i don’t get about guy.

I think Isbell is pretty chill with just about everybody

Goddamn, this song is probably better than ‘Total Entertaiment Forever’. It sounds a bit like Last Shadow Puppets, less Rufus Wainwright vibes this time.

im curious what those characters below the emblem say - perhaps a clue to the next album

My reserved seats are in fact reserved.

AXS is really bad about keeping language consistent on their website. I go to about 6 or 7 shows each year at Red Rocks so if anyone is ever looking into seeing a show there and have questions about anything from parking and tailgating to tickets and fees - I have a ton of advice. Feel free to PM me.
