as we pull into the harbor in new york today,
i ask you how you're doing. you swear up and down you're ok.
but i can see what's gotten into your eyes.
it's written all over your face tonight.
we will never see ireland again.
we will never see ireland again.
as we hang up the map on the motel wall,
count up the places that we've left behind,
add the distances in between them all,
all the bridges that someone's burned down for us,
all the chances that we burned all by ourselves,
makes us wonder what we were thinking then.
'cause we will never see ireland again.
we will never see ireland again.
we will never see ireland again

The Mountain Goats sono un gruppo musicale folk rock statunitense formatosi nel 1991 a Claremont, California, dal cantautore e polistrumentista John Darnielle. Il nome del gruppo deriva da una canzone di Screamin' Jay Hawkins intitolata "Big Yellow Coat". Per gran parte della sua storia, Darnielle è stato l'unico membro stabile dei The Mountain Goats, collaborando con un variegato gruppo di musicisti in studio e durante i concerti. Tra questi figurano il bassista Peter Hughes, il batterista Jon Wurster, il cantautore Franklin Bruno, la bassista e cantante Rachel Ware, il cantautore John Vanderslice, la chitarrista Kaki King e Annie Clark (St. Vincent). La musica dei The Mountain Goats è caratterizzata da testi introspettivi e poetici, spesso incentrati su temi di amore, perdita, isolamento e spiritualità. Le melodie sono semplici ma efficaci, con un forte accento sul canto di Darnielle, che possiede una voce unica e riconoscibile. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo si ricordano "This Year", "No Children", "The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton" e "Up the Wolves".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
