Fleet Foxes Keep My Head From Falling In The Snow

Some songs you hear and immediately fall in love with. The Fleet Foxes’s White Winter Hymnal is one of them for me. Perhaps because it’s been raining for three days in L.A, but this just touched a spot in my being that compelled me to listen to it over and over, all night long, while I plugged away at work, inspiring me to dream thoughts of inspiration.

And the video is beautiful too, just a great modern masterpiece of melody and imagery. I love it!!!

So now I bring it to you, dear artofstarvers, with lyrics…

I WAS FOLLOWING THE PACK
ALL SWALLOWED IN THEIR COATS
WITH SCARVES OF RED TIED ROUND THEIR THROATS
TO KEEP THEIR LITTLE HEADS
FROM FALLING IN THE SNOW
AND I TURNED ROUND AND THERE YOU GO
AND, MICHAEL, YOU WOULD FALL
AND TURN THE WHITE SNOW RED AS STRAWBERRIES
IN THE SUMMERTIME
