The Head and The Heart - Rivers and Roads

Favorite lyrics: and I miss your face like hell

Rivers and Roads is a crescendo; it builds from quiet music to strong vocals based mostly around harmony. The lyrics and melody are pretty simple, but The Head and the Heart has enough vocal strength to be solely sung. It uses silence and quiet to its advantage, mastering the perfect balance between softness and passion. The "oooohs" have a kind of Wake Up - Arcade Fire feel to them, in that just hearing them alone makes you able to place the song. This is the kind of folk song that's meant for nights by a dark river.
