"Home" by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros

I can't stop listening to this song. I haven't read up on the band yet, but I can hear Lee Hazlewood and Ann-Margret, and it seems to be the pinnacle thus far of a trend I think of as "psychedelic country." I'm not totally sure what I mean by that, but maybe it has something to do with freak folk bleeding out till it meets Americana.

Here's the music video:


And here's a live version at the Troubadour in L.A.:


And also, of course, I was bound to like it because 1) It's a duet AND an anthem, and 2) I'm moving in less than a week! August 7 at the Mercury Lounge -- who's in??
