The Tragically Hip ~ Escape Is At Hand For The Travellin' Man


It was our third time in New York It was your fourth time in New York We were fifth and sixth on the bill We talk a little about our bands talk a little of our future plans It's not like we were best friends That number scheme comes back to me In times beyond our heartbeat We hung around til the final band Called 'Escape is at Hand for the Travellin' Man' You yelled in my ear this music speaks to me They launched into 'Lonely From Rock n Roll' Followed by 'They Checked Out an Hour Ago' Closing with 'All Desires Turn Concrete' Those melodies come back to me At times beyond our heartbeat I guess I'm too slow yes I'm too, yes I'm too slow But you said anytime of the day was fine You said anytime of the night was also fine I walked through your revolving door Got no answer on the seventh floor Elevator gave a low moan The pigeons sagged the wire with their weight Listening to the singing chambermaid She sang 'They Checked Out an Hour Ago' Those melodies come back to me In times beyond our heartbeat I guess I'm too slow yes I'm too, yes I'm too slow But you said anytime of the day was fine You said anytime of the night was also fine Our heartbeat, our heartbeat our heartbeat Long conversation idle chit-chat Maybe dive in or maybe hang back Idle conversation or idle chit-chat Maybe dive in or maybe hang back more free lyrics

It was our third time in New York
It was your fourth time in New York
We were fifth and sixth on the bill
We talk a little about our bands talk a little of our future plans
It's not like we were best friends

That number scheme comes back to me
In times beyond our heartbeat

We hung around til the final band
Called 'Escape is at Hand for the Travellin' Man'
You yelled in my ear this music speaks to me
They launched into 'Lonely From Rock n Roll'
Followed by 'They Checked Out an Hour Ago'
Closing with 'All Desires Turn Concrete'

Those melodies come back to me
At times beyond our heartbeat

I guess I'm too slow yes I'm too, yes I'm too slow
But you said anytime of the day was fine
You said anytime of the night was also fine

I walked through your revolving door
Got no answer on the seventh floor
Elevator gave a low moan
The pigeons sagged the wire with their weight
Listening to the singing chambermaid
She sang 'They Checked Out an Hour Ago'

Those melodies come back to me
In times beyond our heartbeat

I guess I'm too slow yes I'm too, yes I'm too slow
But you said anytime of the day was fine
You said anytime of the night was also fine
Our heartbeat, our heartbeat our heartbeat

Long conversation idle chit-chat
Maybe dive in or maybe hang back
Idle conversation or idle chit-chat
Maybe dive in or maybe hang back

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
