Funny, I was burning a CD with A Very She & Him Christmas and MMJ Does Xmas Fiasco Style at the very moment the Roll Call email about the new holiday EP came in. Can't fit all three on one disc, though.

Disc?
It's either vinyl or digital from here on out, dispose of those disc's immediately! I don't trust em'.
Welcome home is great. I keep thinking The Dark is going to start Everytime the new Wonderful starts.
Bo's piano work on wonderful is killing me.

Bo is going to a new level lately. I didn't even know there was a new level. Only listened to the ep once but i think I'm gonna like it..... :o
"all the colors on the leaves, all the love that comes to me, all the twinkling lights are sayin' - 'Welcome Home'....and as the snow glazed all the trees i let my thoughts float on with the breeze. The air rushed in my lungs, said to me (do it?) - 'Welcome Home'"
i love the lyrics, the lyrics love me
yep, I agree. :-*

Yes, can someone help a poor Swede with the lyrics? :thumbsup:
Love the recycled "snow glazed all the trees" lyric from "One In The Same.". Beautiful song.

had the same thought! this tune almost seems like a resolution of the feelings in "One In The Same."
Especially how OITS starts with "On the way back home..." coolness.
(One In The Same > Untitled (from
Does Xmas Fiasco Style > Welcome Home.....is perfect :o)
This song is so beautiful. In love with my first listen.

discs are fine...
just as long as the music on it comes from the download card in the vinyl box or the actual cd itself comes with the vinyl... ;D
"Send bad habits on their way, let a new year start today, open arms are saying to me, WELCOME HOME..."
So beautiful!
really hope Jim's solo record has a similar vibe to this song whenever it comes out. its amazing how gentile the jacket can be at one minute and then rip your face off the next. when we look back in 25 years, they will be held in very high regards. appreciated now by diehards like the Band was back in the day, revered by many more in the future as the Band is now.
Are we sure this isn't the song written by the roadie Jim mentions in the interview?

The song written by the tech, Rocky Roberts, is When The Bells Start Ringing.

sounds like an at dawn/it still moves era song. anyone else hear that?
oh and ditto everything said about bo's keys on this track.
Welcome Home:
My Morning Jacket - Welcome Home (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MArAOrEtkQs#)
Beautiful, gentle, and tender - makes me want to cuddle up with my honey.
Welcome Home is absolutely amazing. I hope we get it live at MSG, as well as Santa Claus Is Back In Town (extremely doubtful though lol)
REALLY hoping we get this at MSG. Surely I will melt.
God I love this song. I get a little Jayhawks vibe when I hear those harmonies.
How have I never heard this song before now?!! Had my laptop screen not got cracked, followed by my hardrive failing in the last month, Im sure I would have heard this before tonight/this morning from the PC recordings a gracious asshole sent me about a month ago, but I cant believe the Jacket doesnt play this more often. It definitely is a fit for the winter/new year holidays, but has a vibe similar to Tonight I Want 2 Celebrate as well where it is perfect for part of an encore or a low key opener. If this was on JJ's album it would easily be my favorite song, or at least give State of the Art a fight. Mind is blown right now.
Randomly went over to youtube for a non-spotifyable song to hear and at the top of my front page was this gem from dillsnufus, otherwise I might still be clueless. Never stop taking all these videos hombre!! :thumbsup:

Scotty, it came as part of an iTunes-exclusive release in Dec. '11.

weird that this thread was bumped.
I have been wearing out the Welcome Home->Wonderful from 2012-07-23 - Live on WFPK - Louisville, KY. such an amazing acoustic combo.

Yeah, its weird. I remember seeing this released but for some reason I thought it was all traditional xmas song they covered and dont think I ever gave it a proper listen. It looks like the rest of the songs besides Wonderful are either traditional songs or xmas specific songs right? Based on this thread Ive noticed When The Bells Start Ringing is an original, what about track 3 or 4?

Back five! (ouch)
I only know of 2 shows that welcome home has been played (unless it was played at the Wiltern or something) and I was at both and both times it was amazing. I'm obsessed with that song. Way better than Wonderful, IMO
I really love this song. There's something simple and pure about the sentiments expressed in it. I've heard it live and it's just beautiful.

Ah yes I forgot about Newport. Is that the underpass sound check? I don't remember that.... The other ones I just didn't know about

Underpass was Wonferulman, Tonight I wanna celebrate, picture of you, wonderful, no?
