about

This song encapsulates the heart and soul of New England’s musical spirit. With its evocative lyrics and melodic storytelling, "Southern Roads to Boston" captures the essence of our beautiful state of Maine and the captivating journey towards Boston.
It's a reflection of our experiences, dreams, and the landscapes that have shaped us as a band. This song takes listeners on a journey that merges the melancholic sound of Coldplay’s melodies and the heartfelt warmth and energy that Bob Seger is renowned for.

lyrics

VERSE 1
Took the back roads down the coastline, headed toward the park
Always captivated by the freak shows after dark
Bright clear signs and tunnels light the underground
Sunsets on the high rise, cobblestones downtown
Took the back roads down the highway, cards & take out food
Ready to tempt fate we smoked one by the pool

CHORUS
Took the southern roads to Boston
Maybe I’ll stay here for awhile
The southern roads to Boston
And I don’t know when I’m coming home

VERSE 2
Tee times in the morning, later cheap tattoos
Flip flops in the hilltop, dressy harbor cruise
Took the back roads down to boston, climbed aboard the T
Now there's an amtrak right to the new TD

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
Fenway Park & Boylston Street
Subway cars & Denny’s eats
Chinatown & bowling lanes
Duck boat rides & long parades
Larry Bird & Celtic green
Faneuil Hall & movie scenes

CHORUS 2
Took the southern roads to Boston
The southern roads to Boston
Took the southern roads to Boston
The southern roads to Boston

BRIDGE 2
Fenway Park & Boylston Street
Subway cars & Denny’s eats
Chinatown & bowling lanes
Duck boat rides & long parades
Patriot rise and Brady feats
Faneuil Hall & movie scenes

OUTRO
The southern roads I drive
The southern roads come alive

Le Cœur Bat (Album)
by Non Serviam

supported by 6 fans who also own “Southern Roads To Boston”

Le Cœur Bat : je l'ai vu passer souvent, cet album du collectif Non Serviam, accompagné tant de commentaires dithyrambiques qu'incendiaires. Presque 1h30 de black metal avant-gardiste et anarchiste, explosif — à l'échelle d'une bombe atomique : prenez garde à "Infanticide" —, qui poignarde la culture machiste ("Salem"), qui fait feu de tout bois et se sert dans tous les styles. Et "Le Cœur Bat" une folie de 25 minutes avec ce chant féminin rituel acide à la Wolvennest... 《 Survivre est un art 》 Jordan Vauvert
