I'm really loving this song right now.
The build and the break...the melody...the strings...that voice. Above all, the words.
If all music could be this extraordinary...
Open Arms - Elbow
You're a law unto yourself
And we don't suffer dreamers
But neither should you walk the earth alone
So with finger rolls and folding chairs
And a volley of streamers
We can be there for tweaks and repairs
Should you come back home
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
Tables are for pounding here
And when we've got you surrounded
The man you are will know the boy you were
And you're not the man who fell to earth
You're the man of La Mancha
And we've love enough to light the street
'Cause everybody's here
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
The moon is out looking for trouble
And everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
The moon wants a scrap or a cuddle
And everyone's here
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Come home again
The moon is out looking for trouble
The moon wants a scrap or a cuddle
The moon is face down in a puddle
And everyone's here

LOVE Elbow. So so much. Bonus points because he looks like Ricky Gervais, lol. Have you heard "Great Expectations"? Beautiful song of theirs. The whole "Seldom Seen Kid" album too was fantastic!
hehe....never thought about the fact that he looks like Ricky, but now that you've pointed it out...
I have heard Great Expectations. (c: I feel like a came a bit late to the party with Elbow, since I first heard of them this year, but I absolutely love them. They are quickly becoming my all-time favs.
