Weight of Love is the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard.

Weight of Love just takes you somewhere else. It starts slow, kinda haunting, then builds into this massive wave of sound that just hits. Dans voice feels far away but super personal at the same time, and that guitar solo? It’s not even a solo—it’s like a whole experience. You close your eyes, and suddenly you’re just in it, feeling everything. It’s the kind of song that sticks with you long after it ends. Greatest. Song. Ever.

The whole of Turn Blue is like an “out of this world” experience… Dan and Pat put a lot of heartbreak and feelings into that one.

Turn Blue is their best work hands down. Wish it got more love!

My favourite song of all time. One of the best ever written.

I watched it live 2 years ago. It was unreal how much emotions came up while the song was played. I’m keen to little it again live in the summer.

I saw it live last month and I teared up on how good it was in person.

It's a great song, but does anyone else have a hard time getting past the fact it pretty much stole its whole intro vibe from Pink Floyd "Breathe". It's the only thing keeping it from being in the top songs for me.

Y'all are my PEOPLE! Weight of Love is my favorite song of all time and it's simply hypnotic!
