I am absolutely floored by this recording. My kid had this in the car playing as I sat and waited for their return on a Saturday afternoon outing. Initially, the progressive song structure and unexpected instrumentation held me, but when I heard Dave Vives sing, I thought, Jeff Buckley has come back to life! I listened to this 20 times tonight and as I moved past the exceptional musicianship and song structure, I began to pick up the lyrics with each listening. I heard not only Jeff's voice in Dave's voice, but Jeff's final words before his untimely death - "eyes swimming deep in grey water, if I sit and wait I'm sure they'll come find me, come find me" "drowning the ghost by swimming static, my tainted breath in fire lungs, I swear that I don't feel anything but safe" "I am in control, I am obedient". I am humbled, moved to tears by this most beautiful tribute to one of our contemporary musician geniuses that is Jeff Buckley. Thank you gentlemen for this exceptional composition and recording. Rest in peace, Jeff - thank you for all you gave us.

Vives is the driving force behind why I got so suddenly & so deeply into this band. His vocals are fucking unreal. He's perfected the tortured scream, between here, Please Explain, and the ending of Well Done. It always brings me to tears. My Spotify liked songs has a very long stream of just his work with CJ.

Such a unique sound. I feel like this song could've been produced to hell and back, so much room, but the fact that this was all live and still has the vibes so full is something else.

Why should I deny this old dog of mine Always by my side Tell me is it safe to come down from this high? Eyes swimming deep in grey water If I sit and wait, I’m sure they’ll come find me The flood is seeping through the seams I ascend to the attic Drowning the ghost by swimming in static My tainted breath in fire lungs I swear that I don’t feel anything but safe So run your fingers over these hands And tell me a story, I’ll smile if you come close And if you try I’ll listen closely But your voice it just can’t reach me anymore Eyes swimming deep in grey water If i sit and wait I’m sure they’ll come find me The fool is the life for me I'll be alright The echo I wanna hear Always listening I am in control I am obedient I am in control I am obedient
