“Row” by Smith & Thell – A Song Review

     “I told myself, ‘You better row!’” It’s a self-motivational speech put to music. Smith & Thell are a duo from Stockholm, Sweden. “Row” has features that first drew fans to Iceland’s Of Monsters and Men. But the song also includes features which distinguish the music from that of other groups. The duo should be uniquely positioned in both the hearts and playlists of music fans.

Lyrics of “Row” by Smith & Thell

Row, row, row your boat, these waters deepen and darken up

But right now you and me honey we just gotta row, row, row

Through mud, dirt, dust and bones, raging rivers, highs and lows

Keep your head up high and eyes on the shore, shore, shore

We gotta make the most out of this short life

So I row the boat through swamp and tide

And if I reach the coast, where the tide goes high

I'll grab those oars, again

Mama, I'm gonna row my boat far from the mess that you left

Oh mama, I'm gonna row no matter what, with shackles and chains round my wrists

You better row, you better row, you better row, you better row

I told myself you better row, you better row, you better row, you better row

Eenie meenie miney mo there's monsters behind every door

But I'm not scared, this time I'm ready for war, war, war

Even though my hands are tied I'm gonna row dead or alive

Row dead or alive

We gotta make the most out of this short life

So I row the boat through swamp and tide

And if I reach the coast, where the tide goes high      

I'll grab those oars, again

Mama, I'm gonna row my boat, far from the mess that you left

Oh mama, I'm gonna row no matter what, with shackles and chains round my wrists

You better row, you better row, you better row, you better row

I told myself you better row, you better row, you better row, you better row

Mama, I'm gonna row my boat far, from the mess that you left

Oh mama, I'm gonna row no matter what, with shackles and chains round my wrists

You better row, you better row, you better row, you better row
I told myself you better row, you better row, you better row, you better row
