Pretty, lovely, broken
I’ve been slowly but surely getting into Appalachian folk music recently, and I am in love with the Civil Wars, the Tennessee duo who sing Barton Hollow. It’s raw and intense and full of energy; I can’t pretend to be an expert in this music genre, but I can’t imagine it gets much better than this.
And every hour we’re working, and work and play are bound.
And every day is Sunday, ‘cause the sun comes dancing down.
