  The love child of War On Drugs and Springsteen. Love it and look forward to his new album.

  Nice to see Justin dig Sam so much. I think he's one of the best artists right now. Great songs and lyrics.

  Sam has released two albums full of better heartachingly beautiful songs that most artists could only wish to release one of in their lifetime and he's gearing up for a third. He's absolutely insane.

  Fender’s grasp of the subject matter every time is masterful. I’m a practicing therapist. Bereaved people ask me when life will be normal again. They have to learn there’s a new normal. But those “touchstones” you speak of, it goes hand in hand with something I’ve said more than once at work. The fastest way to get back to normal is to do normal things. Life does go on despite the pain. Embrace that.

  absolutely love it.  Anyone else get real strong Don Henley Boys of Summer vibes?

  Everything Sam has released has been stellar, magical at times, and it holds up on repeated listenings as good as anyone else’s best material.  Just magnificent.

  Love how Justin's videos are also guitar lessons/history. Really adds an extra appreciation for what the artist is trying to do. Thanks

  Adam Granduciel is a musical genius, so him calling Sam Fender a savant is a huge compliment.<br>Edited to say: &nbsp;The video is a perfect expression of the level of grief this song is about. &nbsp;The world seems jumpy, chaotic and disorienting after you lose someone you really care for. &nbsp;It&apos;s just another day for everyone else. &nbsp;All you can do is watch the world pass by and try to process.

  I get The Killers vibe with Springsteen on this.

  There is such a juxtaposition with this song. Whenever its played, people will dance along to it, sing the chorus etc and enjoy every minute of it yet its a tragic melancholic look at life and our current state of society. For that, its absolute musical genius. 3 albums in, still making music about real life, still getting better.

  This kid is absolutely amazing and a true breath of fresh air to the music industry. I know it’s harder to break through in the US market, but I hope he keeps it up and gets his well deserved due.

  Adam Granduciel has an amazing ear and having him be involved with this record is very exciting. &nbsp;You can hear his touches on that first single. &nbsp;Lots of hope for the record as a whole.
