Its funny how art has a way to stay in one's mind. I heard the vevo version a while ago, and while listening to the album version this morning it came to mind the vevo version on youtube is the real song the artist intended. My take is, through their travels to south america, these men found beauty in the natural world. The song has somewhat Andian flavor, the last bit where it sounds like an accordion has a lasting effect. It reminded me of a sound distinct from Bolivia, and the salt of the world could be the salt flats in Bolivia. This band is genius all stemming from Brandon Boyd, one of the greatest artist of my life. Life imitating art, or art imitating life. I rather imitate artists who imitate me.
