I was in hospital for a month from a heart attack and I was going thru YT when I found mandolin orange. I am a forever fan.

[jls.]

Heard this song as the ending credits of the movie, “Cold Brook” ended. Just keep playing it over and over. Something about it…❤

I could listen to that wonderful young lady sing every day for the rest of my life and be pleased of it.

Seriously?! I cannot get enough of Mandolin Orange. Just Beautiful

[nickdominguez]

She has such an incredible voice. Wow. They continue to be my favorite band ever. Their voices sounds the same live, incredible :)

60's kid, grew up with the Stones, Hendrix and Zeppelin. I found Mandolin Orange 3yrs ago and they are absolutely on point for each song crafted. A delight and a great talent. I hope the years are kind to them and they create more top quality music for generations after me to discover and enjoy. Peace

I love that there is a concert on youtube of them at the NC Governor's mansion. They are a national treasure!

[gracefeutz]

There's such a purity to their sound. I'm so happy to have discovered this talented group!!

[miked]

[gblackburn]

Music is and always will be the foundation of life and lessons learned, broken hearts and smoldering bridges we all can relate

[jonathanbrady]

This song gets better every time I listen to it..

[jamesmonahanmusic]

HOLY-SMOKE, WHAT AN EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE. ❤

[cherylelancaster]

Truly beautiful, and wise words.
The part about the "locked doors" brought tears to my eyes.

[nehpetsttocsnosirrag]

The crispness of the individual notes over the rhythm on the intro on her guitar sounds unbelievable on a headset! Mandolin Orange 🍊 ladies and gentlemen! 👏 👏 👏 👏

[Pawnfirst]

sounds a hell of a lot better than anything on the radio why aren't these guys at the top of the charts?

Lyrics:

Hey stranger
There's danger down the line
You'll find heartache and trouble
And all your good time
Rowdy ways
I'll tell you no lie
There's no burden greater in life
As soon as you pick yourself up just to say
Hey to your loved ones
Who'll all turn away
Don't go living with trouble in mind
There's no burden greater in life
Hey stranger
If ever you decide
Giving in to the bottom will ease your weary mind
And heavy heart
You'll see in time
There's no burden greater in life
As soon as you pick yourself up just to go
Home to your loved ones
You'll find a locked door
Don't go making mistakes like mine
There's no burden greater in life
Don't go living with trouble in mind
There's no burden greater in life

Beautiful. Just recently heard of Mandolin Orange and can't get enough...

[carlosm.devasconcelllos]

These kids are outsdanding. God Bless them ! Golden Embers has got me in a "highTide of Teardrops" remebering my dear mother...., and each song revealed show me that a great band rises.

[OZKINY]

The most beautiful harmonies ever made, their simplicity and well defined sound with just three acoustic/stringed instrumental assembled is just enough to create songs that can transport anyone to the imaginable..

[bobbobness]

This band pulls my heart in every single direction that is possible! All at the same time.. I hear the beauty of the sound they make & I want to cry and laugh and scream & jump up and down on a trampoline.. This is pure joy mixed with the absolute perfect amount of pain that the y know i've been through. This is the closest to perfection I have ever heard
