Just for some background, I'm a 40 year old guy, married , two kids, dull steady job, average in most if not all respects, but this song made me cry tears of pure joy the first time I heard it live (LD opening for The New Pornographers at The Fillmore) and continues to do so on repeat listens ever since.
Why? For its pure, sweet optimism. For telling listeners that no matter what rut you feel you're stuck in, if your heart and mind remain open to life's endless possibilities you will find that next, one thing you might not have even known you were looking for. Here it comes - it's always coming! One moment, or a series of moments, no matter how big or small, can take you on a transformative journey. It can start anytime - you might only know in retrospect that it's already started. Enjoy the song and enjoy the journey.
