half speed
you're welcome
unless you're completely satisfied at full speed
then disregard

Just effing perfect.

See you in the Sky ❤️💋❤️🙏🏼

Found this song and artist by pure randomness. But man can this dude sing and bring it. Love this song. It has an old school feel to it with powerful lyrics with a jazzy beat.

This dude has been Killing it!!! For over 10 years! He is an amazing writer and yes, his music hits the bone!

@Claudius words without thoughts to heaven never go

I love this song and I love Brian Fallon but this is one of the coolest E-Surance commercials I’ve seen.

American Slang vibes!

Is it okay to be disappointed? Cmon, this is lame. I love Gaslight but this seems like a desperate attempt at finding commercial success.

great work, as usual Brian!

good job!

I've recently starting running again after a very long hiatus.. the whole album is my playlist.. but the whole first verse gets me going it's so motivating.. i'm gonna run so far they'll never find me again.

AMAZING! CANT WAIT FOR ACOUSTIC! TRUE FAN FROM POLAND SINCE 2009!!!

Love this song. Listen like ten times a day.

love this song
xxxx

El nuevo boss genial 😊

What a massive legend Brian Fallon is! Long live the Gaslight Anthem and the Horrible Crowes

Each of his songs is a beat of my heart

Played yesterday on Steve Wright BBC Radio 2. Been humming it since 🤣

amazing music

I'd like to hear Brian Fallon singing with Bob Mould. A cover already be enough!

Not my favorite to be honest. Miss the the punk toned lyrics

Another amazing track.

"If Your Prayers Don't Get To Heaven" debuted at #30 on the New Alternative Chart this week:

Brian! I saw you once in Montreal when you were with Gaslight Anthem and I knew I instantly had to see you live again!
And when I do, I hope to god I hear this song live.
Keep it up with the talent! I'm absolutely in love with this song and all the rest.

Great, great song... again. Truly enjoying your sound. Can’t wait for the full new album and to play it on repeat like I have done (and am still doing) with Painkillers. See you in the Melkweg in Amsterdam, Brian. 🤘🏻🙂🎸

Someone else believe that this song sounds like "let it grow" from the movie the lorax ?

I love Brian and this is a great song, but the opening sounds just like the theme music from the Esurance commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJvrqahTAeE

Rockabilly....Brazil when???

He's back for sure

You can't tell me this sounds strikingly similar to "You're the One That I Want"...but i absolutely love it

loved gaslight anthem. Love brian fallons painkillers album. pumped for new album.

his vocal style is anti-digital. a lost art.

This album is going to be so good!

Oh Brian this is such a bop. Doing great. Cant wait to see you in April.

That Stacy chick would be one damn fool to not ride that train with Brian Fallon. It's the greatest damn train in the world!

I've had a rock hard man crush on this guy since '07, and it just keeps growing. No shame. He cannot write a bad song!

Hes a genius is Brian ...keep them coming 👏

Motown Brian. He's so talented if he did polka music I would like it

3:33 Anyone else get the urge to do the “Single Ladies” dance?...

Just me? OK.

F Dupe I've been doing gogo drills to this and forget me not so I feel you

Goddamn this is too good

This man...<3

I get chills listening to this 💗

This song is better than any other song from the painkiller album.

Frank Desiront among other foolish things is my jam

I really like sausages but I like Brian's music more.

Was not expecting this kind of sound!! Very cheery

It reminds me of "You Can't Hurry Love" by The Supremes when he starts to sing, also the rhythm. Good song though

On replay🎵🎵🎵👍

i love this song! Can't wait for the new album

Just when I thought I couldn't find peace or happiness anywhere. This honestly kept me alive today. I needed this. Thank you so much, Brian.

Although unfortunately I don't think there's any way to slide in your Youtube DMs and talk to you :'D

I wish there was some way to. Some how we'll talk

Do you have Insta? :'D That's basically the only social media I have, I'm @tigerribs

Yeah. I've got an Insta. @basiliska97

Aspen Calloway hang in there buddy

I swear there is a Protomen influence in this song, I love it!

I'm falling in love again and again and again... Great song!!!

Which four Divvy's disliked this song big tut

Brian Fallon's music makes everything a little bit better :) I love every single song he's put out, whether it's his solo stuff or with his awesome band The Gaslight Anthem. There are few singer-songwriters this great!

Woah awesome!cant wait for the album!

Love it 👌🏻

Sounds like its straight from the "Grease" soundtrack, I love it!!

mrcauduro My mom showed me the song where the chick is singing "won't you be my man," and it sounds just like this.

Not all heroes wear capes...some carry a guitar and wear jean jacket s..

and white tee shirts

Love it

Made a cover if you want to take a look!

BelTony it is really nice😮 i love your voice😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

Thanks! :)

Checked it out and commented...teach me...please! Lol

Nice dude, as a fellow musician it's nice to see someone else inspired by Brian, what's more is it's actually good, I was expecting it to be terrible 😂

I miss Gaslight Anthem

They'll be back. Don't worry.

wellmas its good that they are taking a break, the passion was gone. Now brian has found some more :)

they just announced a 10 year of The 59 Sound show in New York with some type of tour or shows after. They are playing the album in it's entirety.

10 year anniversary that is.

I don't, like sure they were good but to me Brian Fallon's way better alone, shit like this is brilliant

Brian certainly still has the vocals, but nothing about this song grabs me like Gaslight & parts of Painkillers did. Would kill for some guitar riffs and the gruff growl we all know he can produce☹️

I'm walkin on suuunshine wooohooo

nah, just kiddin - I like it :) nice one!

1dree1 😂😂 oh no I can't unhear it!

at least there is something from it in it ;) cheers!

Really can hear The Jam in this. Another beauty!

Geez, this man can do no wrong. There was always a few Gaslight Anthem tracks I didn't like on each album, but this I'm gonn' listen till kingdom come.

And he did it again, with him, even the extreme atheist gets to believe in God.

Who else can't wait until the acoustic version? I love that you get two songs in one with Brian Fallon.

Abigail Stricker for real? No lie it kinda bugs me lol. Instead of coming out with the next track he'll do a track, the music video for it, the acoustic, and two weeks after the acoustic he'll do another track. It's not bad it just feels like a padded release cycle...

Booker Güdkush I don't know, I always fall in love with the original and then I hear it acoustic and its like a completely different song. Like Handwritten, the acoustic version is one of the most beautiful tracks I have ever heard, damn near makes me cry, but it's entirely different than the album track. I don't know, it just never stops amazing me how a song written and performed by the same person can feel so utterly different.

Abigail Stricker wait, are we sure we're getting acoustic tracks for EVERY song? I feel like that was a one time thing.

It's Brian Fallon, so no guarantees, but he has a pretty decent track record of doing acoustic versions

He did an amazing live recording for Forget Me Not, so I hop he does a live studio acoustic for this one, too.

Fuck yes!! Love this guy!!!

The echo in his voice is haunting lol

I can't wait til he comes back to AZ ☺☺☺☺☺ I'm excited!!!

I hope it's soon!

Mr Gears April 2

I was just going through "Painkillers" and found there was new music from him. And now I'm hard.

blinkMATIC me too

I’m packing up, I’ve gotta move
I’m gon' blow a fifty-foot hole into the dark clouds in my room
I’m making a change I'm gon' start today
I’m gon' roll these dice with a song tonight, I'm gonna whip these blues away
And I’m gon' run so far they’ll never find me again


But I ain’t leavin’, I ain’t leavin’ 'less I’m leavin’ here with you
I’ve been patient while I waited, but I feel it’s time to move
You’ve been crying, yeah, I’ve seen you
Honey, I’ve been crying too
If your prayers don’t get to Heaven, I’m gon' keep them safe for you
If your prayers don’t get to Heaven, I’m gon' keep them safe ‘til they do


I just wait in cold, cold gray
But I know like I’ve been told, yeah, mama says, “Hold onto hope”
She whispers sweet, "There is a light and glory”
But you gotta burn that sound of the voices out that wanna bring you to your knees
And you gotta run so far they'll never find you again


But I ain’t leavin’, I ain’t leavin’ 'less I’m leavin’ here with you
I’ve been patient while I waited, but I feel it’s time to move
You’ve been crying, yeah, I’ve seen you
Honey, I’ve been crying too
If your prayers don’t get to Heaven, I’ma keep them safe for you
If your prayers don’t get to Heaven, I’ma keep them safe ‘til they do


And when I was a child, a dream came to me
Well, every soul hanging low found its piece of dignity
'Til that dream gets to Heaven, you can ride this train for free
'Til that dream gets to Heaven, you can ride this train on me
And we gon' run so far they'll never find us again


But I ain’t leavin’, I ain’t leavin’ 'less I’m leavin’ here with you
I’ve been patient while I waited, but I feel it’s time to move
You’ve been crying, yeah, I’ve seen you
Honey, I’ve been crying too
If your prayers don’t get to Heaven, I’ma keep them safe for you
If your prayers don’t get to Heaven, I’ma keep them safe ‘til they do
'Til they do
'Til they do
'Til they do

Ivan Viti The line is "she whispers sweet: 'There is a Light and Glory', my man

Thanks, man

You rock bro, thanks for the lyrics.

When he sings about running so far away that the blues won't find him in the first verse; it almost feels like he knows that's not true/possible

God his lyrics man. Always incredible.

Another great track. Brian's lyrics are always incredible. I can't wait to see him play Dublin in March. On my birthday no less!

*spoiler alert* Brian recorded an incredible song.

So excited to be taking the love of my life to see this man perform in Seattle!
Can't wait for her to finally realize why I get in random arguments with people about how damn talented he is :)
Amazing song and can't wait for the new album

You must be a liar because no one can argue against Brian Fallon's talent.

Pretty sure people's ears are broken, because it's impossible to hate Brian.

I wanted him to come in rapping on that outro.

Brian cannot write a bad song.....love it!

He's dropping banger after banger
Looks like Brian's at the top of his game rn

Also Craig, completely agree, a little different from what he usually does, but at the same time, fuckin amazing

Gaslight got awfully sappy there for those last records. But Im glad he's gone back to trying to be the punk rock Springsteen now that he's solo. Excited for this new one.

AdzBrandMusic thats really true

In what way is this even remotely Punk rock?

Perfect

He never disappoints

Excellent

As mentioned before, this has a ‘Jam’ feel to it, which is super cool!

Sweet. Love that beat......That beat is a nice homage to Town Called Malice

God damn he did it again!

Who else can't wait until February for Sleepwalkers to be released?!

One of the best live shows you'll ever see. Saw him at an outdoor show in about 105 degree weather and it was worth every second

What date?

I hope that Gaslight will do a tour this year! They are doing a few gigs for the 59' sound, but only US...

It has been leaked man, you can listen it now 😂😂😂

I WAS THERE

King Brian....<3

Your music really makes everything better.

holy friggen moly

Absolutely love this album so far

ARGENTINA is waiting for you!

https://www.facebook.com/TheGaslightAnthemArgentina/?hc_location=ufi :)

Matias Lisandro siiiii!!! Hago Phoenix, Santa Ana, LA, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland!! No puedo esperar

Matias Lisandro jajajajjaa dale

Beny Nuñez Caballero benyy pero estás re cerca vos! Anda a verlo!!

It's amazing how Brians sound changes, yet I still love every song that he's released! So excited to see him live again in Germany!

Changing? This still has that same Brian Fallon feel.

nice one

His sound is constantly changing now after Gaslight, but I have yet to hear a song written by him that I do not instantly fall in love with. God bless you B. Fal!

It is not even changing that much I felt Gaslight changed much more over the years and I was always skeptical and I was always wrong. He just keeps getting better. Would still like to hear an old school Gaslight record if they make another one.

"If your audience doesn't understand what your saying its not their fault, its your fault for not communicating your ideas properly. if you decide to change your style, you need to bring your fans on that journey with you"- Brian Fallon. He's been pretty fucking great at making sure the changes are consistent with his style

Changing? This still has that same Brian Fallon feel.

Awesome 👍👍👍

Brasil waits 4 u.

John Compagnon true ♡
