\I started telling the story\Without knowing the end.\
When I first heard this I loved the music -- but I wasn't too keen on Bill Callahan's voice. Now I see the error of my ways.
This song is so hypnotically beautiful and pure, it's absurd. Lyrically it's magnificent, musically it's genius, and vocally it's gorgeous. Bill's voice is simple and perfect for the song. I find myself wanting to sing along every time I hear it.
