In a just world, this song would have been #1 on the Billboard charts for weeks. It's perfection.

[LisabethWright-yv]

Driving beat with ethereal chords. Exhilarating ❤ Crazy lyrics.

[ReedRosson]

Seeing the Fruit Bats with the Mountain Goats at the Ryman here in Nashville a week from today. So glad I’m going.

[nataliegoldman]

This song makes me want to take a road trip

[IamHammy]

Holy smokes, that drum beat got me, then the vocals hit and my heart exploded. I love this. How in the world does one person produce so much gold?!

[Dezb]

Just when I think Fruit Bats can’t possibly be any more amazing...

[misterblister]

That bass line’s sicker than a skate trick.

[bulabula]

Heard this song at a bar right now and fell in love. I've been in an effin funk and a half and I finally have a song I can listen to I like again

[scottdailey]

When a song makes you feel your most tender, you've achieved something. Congratulations Fruit Bats.

[SANTOSOSANTOS]

~THIS SONG IS MESMERIZING..HIS VOICE IS ENCHANTING AND IT'S OVERALL SOUND IS INTOXICATING~

[JR-gyhg]

The Pet Parade album is near perfect. Most definitely the record of the year. I cannot stop listening. It gets better and deeper every time. I recently read that The Balcony almost didn't make it onto the album. That would have been heartbreaking.

[lynalyna]

I just cannot stop listening to anything by eric or fruit bats.. saw them in Boston and kids semi ruined it but after this show I fell in love with erics voice... my boyfriend is a long time fan and got me into this band. He is sn amazing songwriter..

[aletheia]

Channeling Lyndsey Buckingham and Fleetwood Mac? I just love this song. What a surprise!

[joyedgar]

This song. This video. Don’t have the words to express my appreciation for it.

[Ftanftangfnarrr]

Saw Eric D Johnson in The Shins, Edinburgh 2007. Fruit Bats fan ever since.

[zacharybuell]

Love at first listen. I am SO stoked for this new album!

[tommyboyer]

Love this...sounds both new and familiar, like an old friend.

[Montysreal]

This song transported me back to my 70s central California toddler years. The bass is killing it here and the slight nod to choral work and folk. It was blissful to hear on the road to Jenner.

Thanks to 88.5 FM out of Albemarle, VA for the discovery of this awesome group!

[meganbarfuss]

Been a major Fruit Bats fan for a while now, don’t know how I’m just now thinking to check and see if there are any music videos… this is everything a music video should be. I adore this. Love reading these comments and seeing I’m not actually the only Fruit Bats fan in the world!
