"Sing Along" by Sturgill Simpson - A Song Feature

     The man is talented. But we didn’t see an association between Sturgill Simpson and Indie Obsessive. Simpson has left his Indie days behind him and he is aligned with a genre that is outside our area of expertise. We are pleasantly surprised at our attachment to his single “Sing Along.” It is a Rocker, perhaps most along the lines of a fully energized Black Keys single.

     It gets better! The video is a post-apocalyptic animation with a Robin theme - a futuristic Robin Hood-like hero in a Batman and Robin-like vehicle. The video is a preview of an anime film that will be released via Netflix on September 27, 2019.

Lyrics of "Sing Along" by Sturgill Simpson

Words can stab as deep as night

And cut like razor thorn

Bitter air and winds of spite

Like the cold of winter’s scorn

Leaves may fall on sleeping ground

But the wind sweeps them away

Like hurt lovers in the final round

What once was in now decay

I can't go on

Living alone

Now that you're gone

A single strand of spider's weave

Just dancing in the sun

Please don't turn around and leave

You are my only one

Compromise is made out of peace

But history is made out of violence

After the war of words has ceased

All that's left is the deafening silence

I can't go on

Living alone

Now that you're gone

You done me wrong

So, here's your song

Now sing along, baby

Hell, I know you know that you're killing me

But its’ worth it just to see you smile

Tell ‘em to carve my name in the barstool baby

You know I'm gonna be here awhile

A single strand of spider's weave

Just dancing in the sun

Please don't turn around and leave

You are my only one

I can't go on

Living alone

Now that you're gone

You done me wrong

So, here's your song

Now sing along
