my love affair with wilco

it's no secret to friends that i love wilco. love them. they aren't at the beatles level for me, but they are close. as weird as they can be, to me they can do no wrong. their new album is no exception.
i fell in love with them listening to their album SUMMEREETH on repeat when i was 21, just out of college, partying all night, smoking too much pot and just a little depressed because i couldn't find a "real" job. it's no wonder they wrote and recorded the album a little strung out and depressed themselves. that album just resonated with me and always will.
i walked down the aisle to "remember the mountain bed" an exquisite song written by woody guthrie that still gives me chills. it's a song in which you can feed off the emotion and really immerse yourself in the lyrics, just a sampling:

There in the shade and hid from the sun we freed our minds and learned
Our greatest reason for being here, our bodies moved and burned
There on our mountain bed of leaves we learned life's reason why
The people laugh and love and dream, they fight, they hate to die

The smell of your hair I know is still there, if most of our leaves are blown
Our words still ring in the brush and the trees where singing seeds are sown
Your shape and form is dim but plain, there on our mountain bed
I see my life was brightest where you laughed and laid your head...
