The Lumineers - “Walls” (MusiCares)

The Lumineers - Walls

Tom Petty is a musical hero to us. We were lucky enough to tour with him, and this song "Walls" is the song Wes' wife walked down the aisle to. We recorded our version backstage before a show after Tom died, and the proceeds will go to MusiCares – an organization that helps all kinds of musicians.

One of my all time favorite Tom Petty songs and these guys CRUSHED IT! Absolutely phenomenal

[sylviagable]

I sang this song to my sister on her deathbed. She died on the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century. She was an absolute angel. I love her so much. Thank you so much for your beautiful rendition!

The lumineers is that kind of band which always will take you to a big journey full of joy and pain where you get lost sometimes and find ur self at the same time, broken heart, lost feelings, mixed feeling anything could happen in this sweet painful journey!!! <3

I want you back guys, need a powerful album from you!

My fiancé and I have decided to have this version of Walls as our first dance song at our wedding next year. We both love it so much. Original Tom Petty will close out our night, though. 💕

The one band who covered a Tom Petty classic and absolutely nailed it

That accordion just hits man. We need more accordion in our music these days.

“You’ve got a heart so big, it could crush this town” I can identify so much with that. It reminds me of the kindness of strangers. The innocence of children. The loyalty of animals.

I heard this for the first time about a month ago on Tom Petty radio. I was instantly mesmerized. Found this on you tube. I'm 60 and I like everything from Jackson Browne, Neil Young to Five Finger Death Punch and Rammestien. This song echos to my soul. Thanks to them and Tom Petty. Also Tom Pettys " I got a room at the top of the world tonight" is awesome.

every time i hear 'even walls fall down' idk why but its empowering...like we are only humans and falling down crumbling is a part of life that comes more often than i would like but this one line makes me feel safe and okay and normal. i love this song cuz it makes me stronger and gives me hope

[rasheedamao]

Love love love! The Luminneers everything. This band feeds my soul. I don't even know what to say, nothing describes them enough.

[HaydenCallihan-bp]

This made me cry. Such a beautiful and slick harmony

[irishmadman]

Tom Petty...what a great song writer! R.I.P

[katherinefanning]

Beautiful tribute. Tom knew talent when he saw it and loved supporting young artists.

The Lumineers : Walls

[Verse 1]
Some days are diamonds
Some days are rocks
Some doors are open
Some roads are blocked
Sundowns are golden
And they fade away
But if I never do nothing
I'll get you back someday

[Chorus]
Cause you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can’t hold out forever
Even walls fall down

[Verse 2]
And all around your island
There's a barricade
It keeps out the danger
It holds in the pain
Sometimes you're happy
Sometimes you cry
Half of me is ocean
Half of me is sky

[Chorus]
But you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can’t hold out forever
Even walls fall down

[Bridge]
Some things are over
Some things go on
Part of me you carry
Part of me is gone

[Chorus]
But you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
Baby, you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down.

Sundowns are golden and they fade away
