oh damn this is taking me back

heard this song on this playlist and it took me straight back to ninth grade when i saw this video on MTV (agéd) and i was like, WHAT IS THIS AND HOW DO I GET IT and then i became obsessed with the cowboy junkies, i went to see them alone (!) at age 15? and townes van zandt opened for them. and then i was chasing down music by townes, john prine, neil young, and the velvet underground, which was a blessing. now when i hear the cowboy junkies, they feel like old people music. they are old people music, right? but like, they always were? still — this song cracked so much open for me. gotta give a shoutout.
