Anders Osborne(born May 4, 1966 in Uddevalla, Sweden)
is an American singer-songwriter. He tours solo and with a band, and often plays in North
Mississippi Osborne
(N.M.O),
a group formed by Osborne and North Mississippi Allstars.
As a teen, Osborne started playing guitar and
listening to Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Jackson Browne, and Joni Mitchell records. He was influenced by the vocal styles of Ray Charles, Van Morrison and Lowell George, Robert Johnson and recordings of African drumming. "Blues connected everything
together for me," Osborne recalls. "The early rock, the R&B, the
jazz, the singer-songwriters. Blues was like a thread running
through everything." He began playing in Open D tuning, which
gives his fretwork a signature sound and feel. "I first heard Open D on
Joni Mitchell's Blue,"
he says, "and my fingers just fit the tuning."
Standing with angels
now
you didn't go gently
into the night
Standing with the Maker now
You're done raging
against the light
Standing with angels now
All your troubles have turned
Least we have the memories
Living caused you too much hurt
The pain you had has set you free
Yeah you're free now
Standing with angels now
you didn't go gently into the night
Standing with the maker now
You're done raging against the light
Standing with angels now
Things round here don't change
Still tryin' to do too much
Without you it ain't the same
But it helps to know that you're watching us
Yeah you're watching us
Standing with angels now
you didn't go gently into the night
Standing with the maker now
You're done raging against the light
Standing with angels now
Standing with angels now
Standing with angels now
Standing with angels now
Standing with angels now
Standing with angels now
Yeah, standing with angels now
Standing with angels now
Standing with angels now.
