Sometimes it's a trailer on TV but it's not the pictures that grab the attention, or even the comment running along. Much rather, it's the song that plays in the background ... It took me quite some time to figure this one out: Glory by Josh Tarp and The Still ~ time well worth spending as I've discovered a new-to-me band with a sound that's right up my alley ~
Bandpage provides the following brief bio:
Josh Tarp and The Still creates music that pushes the boundaries of genre stereotypes, creating a balanced pallet of folk, soul, and classic rock rounded together by constructively effortless songwriting. Since beginning this project in 2010, theirs songs have impacted a diverse and growing audience of true music lovers and easy listeners.
I dreamed I saw the devil
Dressed in his Sunday suit
He tried to pull me closer
But my feet, they would not move
This train is bound for glory, love
If I look over my shoulder
I always see him there
He's dressed like friends and family
Never lost his icy stare
This train is bound for glory, love
Ain't it strange, sometimes
Tickets saved for evil men and liars
Ain't it strange, my love
This train is bound for glory after all
The blood dried on my hands
Weighs heavy on my heart
The water's washed my spirit
But my body's worlds apart
This train is bound for glory, love
My feet will soon grow weary
My strength will surely fail
Board the door to the passenger car
With three long rusty nails
This train is bound for glory, love
Ain't it strange, sometimes
Tickets saved for evil men and liars
Ain't it strange, my love
This train is bound for glory after all
I'll take my sins to my grave
Bury my body with my shame
Ash to ash and dust to dust
I'll take my sins to my grave
Bury my body with my shame
Ash to ash and dust to dust
This train is bound for glory
Ain't it strange, sometimes
Tickets saved for evil men and liars
Ain't it strange, my love
This train is bound for glory after all
