Andrew Bird - The Giant of Illinois

Thanks, Beau.

The giant of Illinois
Died from a blister on his toe
After walking all day through the first winter snow

Throwing bits of stale bread
To the last speckled doves
He never even felt his shoes filled with blood

Delirious with pain, his bedroom walls began to glow
And he felt himself soaring up through falling snow
And the sky was a woman's arms

A boy with a club foot
Had sat next to him in school
Once upon a summer's day
They went wandering through the woods

They spotted a sleeping swan
On the banks of a muddy stream
And they stormed it with rocks
Till it collapsed in the reeds

They lay out on the grass
Full of chocolate and lemonade
But underneath it all the giant was afraid
The sky was a woman's arms

Been really into a band called Plini lately. Their new record is called "Handmade Cities" and it's phenomenal. If you like instrumental music and fusion (in this case, a mixture of rock, metal, jazz, electronic). Their music is layered, complex, dynamic, rhythmic, melodic, and really beautiful - I feel like their sound has an excellent balance between evoking emotions as well as being very cerebral, especially if you're a musician and enjoy analyzing the complexity and nuances of compositions. The drumming is also outstanding.

Yup, a similar style as Planet X for sure. I've been a fan of Planet X since high school, particularly their drummer, Virgil Donati, who I think is one of the greatest drummers in history. The song you shared is an excellent example of why I feel that way, especially the part from 4:26 to 5:34. "Quantum" is such an outstanding record - highly recommended. Glad to know other forum members are familiar with them, too. :)
 
Beautiful voice, beautiful song. John Denver performing Annie's Song in Australia, 1994.


Lyrics:

You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
