With honest lyrics, a perfect harmony (with strumming choices that appear to mix both aspects of rock and country chords; the two genres blend together seamlessly and it comes out beautifully), and a music video that is just as gorgeously put together as the song itself, I can't get enough of Benhur's "Lay Me Down"; it's pretty completely awesome and one of the best new songs I've heard lately.
This song only furthers my conviction that, though the US has some pretty decent rock bands, Canada still supplies us with the best indie rock we could hope for.
Get this (and other great songs) on the bands latest album, Between Flower and Hive, available on iTunes now.
