Every time I hear this song it makes me want to sing it to my kids. What a great lullaby!

    I played it for my baby boy when he was just a little newborn :) I should try it again. poor little guy is teething and not always sleeping through the night.

    It's such a wonderful song. I think it's influence comes from Neil Young's Harvest Moon. It's got the same calm and melodic feeling.

    i love this song. it is truly a great lullaby. ive also heard rumors that it is about a murderer looking over someone he just killed. strange. but a beautiful song nonetheless

    I dont want to be negative....please do not snap at me on this one.......

    I have been a PJ fan since the day VS was released....i was 14...since then i have purchased EVERY album they have put out the MORNING they were released. All i listen to is PJ...THATS it!

    I have to say this....there is 1 song that they have put out that is just useless...that is AROUND THE BEND
    Lets put all the "Stupid mop's....bugs...reddot...." aside...they are not true songs....AROUND THE BEND is and it is flat out HORRIBLE

    This song is a waste of space and time!

    I love this song! It's the song that I'd like played at my wake, not to be morbid, but it's just so pretty and calm.
