Sam Beam lives in Miami, FL and makes music under the name Iron & Wine. He is a father of two (both daughters) and teaches cinematography at a local college. September 2002 saw the release of his debut album, The Creek Drank the Cradle. That record was/is hushed, literate, intimate, melodic: a quiet treasure which, with its unaffected candor and depth, found fans all over. Both in the bio for the first record and in (perhaps an unwitting, self-fulfilling prophecy set in motion by that bio) subsequent press surrounding the record, a fair amount of focus has been narrowed on these two facts: Sam Beam lives in Miami and most of his music is home-recorded. This lends some interesting context, but really, these things are solely that: context. The simple explanation is More...

"Your mother is drunk as all the firemen shake A photo from father’s arms," he died with the photo in his hands, the firemen had to shake it from his grip Woman King - Look in Kings 1 &2 | Reviewer: mammapalooza ------ About the song Jezebel performed by Iron & Wine The song seems to be about the biblical Jezebel in Kings. Jezebel is the Phoenician queen of ancient Israel.Jezebel asks her eunuchs kill the queen mother by throwing her out of a window. They comply, tossing her out of the window and leaving her in the street to be eaten by dogs. Only Jezebel's skull, feet, and hands remained. Not really, more of a classic case. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Jezebel performed by Iron & Wine I couldn't understand why I fell in love with this song, why I fell in love with Jezebel, until I actually read these lyrics. This story isn't about an independent, autonomous woman. It's about a girl so insecure with her self-idenitity she feels uncomfortable with a loving relationship. It's really a classic case of the Nice Guy. Always witnessing the falls of his beloved, when beside her he stands. She isn't aware, or isn't comfortable with, the nice guy- who she knows will treat her right. She'd rather be with the "dogs". And yet the guy waits for the day she realizes he's been there for her all this time. Through all her mistakes, he still remains. It's all in the lyrics. favorite. period. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Boy With A Coin performed by Iron & Wine This song has such incredible meaning behind the lyrics that I can hardly contain my excitement. I first heard this song just the other day and I am in love with it. Iron and Wine usually has a sound that is similar to Bright Eyes, and this is different, not that their normal sound is bad, but this song is just so simple, but at the same time very complex. That Ciara kid has a point for a twelve year old. I just prefer that Iron and Wine was never EVER used for Twilight (I have not seen it, thank god). sam beam / band. | Reviewer: Adelaide ------ About the song Boy With A Coin performed by Iron & Wine Actually, Iron & Wine, while primarily seen as a "one-man band," consists of about three-four other musicians with Sam Beam. His sister performs with him as well. True, "Iron & Wine" is his stage/performing name, so technically he is only a solo musician, instead of part of a band, but considering that he usually plays shows with other musicians in tote, you cannot say that he is strictly a solo performer. Another review | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Sixteen Maybe Less performed by Iron & Wine Although I agree that this song is perfect and one of the most beautiful love songs. They don't talk about love as a baby. they're saying that their love is new born, but i think that only makes the song more significant. As i sit here i wonder why isn't this song and the entire album a very well known song. Its getting much less publicity than it deserves. Beautiful | Reviewer: K. Bernard W. ------ About the song Boy With A Coin performed by Iron & Wine Iron and Wine absolutely nailed it. This song is simply beautiful. The lyrics are thought out and the delivery is simply perfect. If you have not viewed the video for this song, you are missing out. It to, is fantastic! people's own meanings | Reviewer: raine ------ About the song Flightless Bird, American Mouth performed by Iron & Wine To me these lyrics could be use for mostly anything... but for me its about two people in love but it not being enough also to me its about losing someone hense "have i lost you american mouth" flightless bird is to me naming someone and the same goes to ameican mouth when i think of flightless bird im thinking of someone who is lost not being able to find their way and american mouth could mean anything really but to me it seems like it means someone who is over spoken..not caring who hears them and if they care or not its a truely wonderfull but sad song... love iron and wine! Iron & Wine | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Sodom, South Georgia performed by Iron & Wine "Papa died Sunday and I understood All dead white boys say, "God is good" White tongues hang out, "God is good" =============== I think he's referring to the things that men have said...men that have come and gone. They sleep in their white walls sepulchers...they sleep as the grave....they sleep...and with the image of "GOD IS GOOD" manifesting from their tomb. OMG! | Reviewer: Molly ------ About the song Boy With A Coin performed by Iron & Wine Iron and Wine is the best one man band EVER! Probably the best band ever too. He is magnificent, the tune catches your attention and you can't stop. and his songs have meaning, unlike some songs that are random. It is AWESOME! My take | Reviewer: Kt ------ About the song Jezebel performed by Iron & Wine When I heard this song I felt like "jezebel, it's we, we that you are for only" and "she was born to be the woman we could blame" - was set in an ironic tone, emphasising the twisted and selfish view of man. Here is a woman who is free and independent and beautiful - and for that she is deemed by society to be a "whore" She is thought of as an object of desire, she is thought of as something to be had, to be devoured. I think the writter too see's her in the same way, but also see's her objectification, and is expressing the saddness that this beautiful person being objectified and used. Worshiped, but wholly being thought of as less than an autonomous human. Indescribably lovely | Reviewer: Candy ------ About the song Fever Dream performed by Iron & Wine This song as stated by other reviewers, makes me cry, and makes me happy all in one. Both the music and the lyrics work together so beautifully. It's helped me be at peace so many times, and it's also a great song to listen to when I'm writing. beauty. | Reviewer: anonymous ------ About the song Fever Dream performed by Iron & Wine Sam Beam's songs are so beautifully put together, and I sometimes wish to see the world the way he does. I like listening to his music while I am trying to get to sleep but cannot, because they calm me and make a sense of peace come over me. His lyrics make me think about what they are meant to mean and I like that challenge. I absolutely love his music and the way he conveys feelings into song. beautiful. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Sea And The Rhythm performed by Iron & Wine i read the lyrics to this song before i actually heard it and i have never been so moved by something in my life - every other love song i listen to now sounds silly. i never got the mother/son thing from "the milk from your breast is on my lips"; i immediately understood it as the experience of making love to his wife, the mother of his children. the words and the music have a maturity that seems to transcend young lust. such a beautiful song. way, way up on my top five. My view. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Jezebel performed by Iron & Wine I think what the song is saying is that Jezebel was a whore sort of woman and she kept running off and doing things she thought she "needed" to do. She wouldn't stay in one place and get to know one man. One of the men she found loved her for who she was. He found a connection to her that no one else could see, and he loved it. Of course, she couldn't stay with him, because the had the idea she had to leave and find another man. He wanted her to stay. I think the dogs represent the men chasing after her. They were hungry for her because she was I guess this hot, young woman who only wanted one thing. They were trying to tell her lies in saying they'll love her more, when really they won't. The other man who loves her wants her to see what she could be with him, but she the "dogs" keep telling her otherwise, so she stays with her old ways. This is just what I get out of the song. It might be totally wrong from what it really means. It makes sense to me, anyways. Touching | Reviewer: Jazz ------ About the song Flightless Bird, American Mouth performed by Iron & Wine The first time i heard this was on Twilight, Yes i know it was made before. But this song iz so touching in so many ways this was the rite song for them(Bella & Edward) at the end. This song makes me wonder bout so many things bout life it touches me so bad that i cry, Yes i no that dumb, but jus listenin to it I jus do. Makes me think bout the past n Regretin what i did was wrong... Overall this is an awesum & touching song... That i jus love listenin to everyday... Gosh | Reviewer: Minnie ------ About the song Passing Afternoon performed by Iron & Wine iron and wine take away the pain. If you had a bad day, pop some iron and wine into your cd player, line on your bed and get lost in the music. it helps, always! I am having some bad times right now and iron and wine is my warm blankie! Iron & Wine | Reviewer: Ami ------ About artist/band Iron & Wine This is such beautiful folk. I would have never guessed the Sam to be from Florida. The melodies are that of the waving grasses of the plains, the romanticism of a vineyard. Regardless, absolutely in love and will continue to be.. thank you, Sam. A twelve year old's review | Reviewer: Ciara ------ About the song Boy With A Coin performed by Iron & Wine I think that Iron and Wine make a sound, a sound that is one in a million. The sound that is heard when his finger tips strum the guitar is something that will blow your mind away. When you hear this sweet music your imagination imediatly start's to work and you then begins to understand what the lyrics are. I am only twelve and I live in Ireland. I discovered this band when twilight was introdused. I began to listen to the sweet melodys that were played and as they were payed my mind was like a person, a person who could run free and discover such sweetness. I find the music to have a meaning and if it is played anywhere, I would always notice the unique sound of Iron And Wine Ciara Doonan Just Read it | Reviewer: Michael ------ About the song Passing Afternoon performed by Iron & Wine Well, to be honest the first time I heard this song wasn't in House. I have always loved Iron and Wine music, I first heard "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" as a sound track of "twilight" it was such a beautiful song that I immediately wanted to know who sang it that's how I discovered Iron and Wine and their incredible songs. One of them as you all know is PASSING AFTERNOON and I think is clear that using this as a OST in House was extremely touching! BTW I also like House!
