Dawes has a long history music that is monolithic. It’s rock and roll with songwriting that holds up easy to the vulnerability of a stripped-down arrangement. Their videos have been our playlists for a decade and we never imagined we would get to work together. But the world is crazy, and here we are.

Ten years ago when this song, and it’s music video featuring a who’s-who of real-deal musicians, released we immediately fell in love with it. All Your Favorite Bands is heartbreaking and lighthearted at once. It’s holding a hard goodbye alongside the joy of a life well lived.

Happy 10 years, fellas. We sure are thankful you shared this with us.

Lyrics:
Late night drives and hot french fries and friends around the country
From Charlottesville to good old Santa Fe
When I think of you, you still got on that hat that says, “”Let’s Party!””
I hope that thing is never thrown away
I hope that life without a chaperone is what you thought it’d be
I hope your brother’s El Camino runs forever
I hope the world sees the same person that you’ve always been to me
And may all your favorite bands stay together
I’m just waking up and I’m not thinking clearly, so don’t quote me
With one eye open, I’m writing you this song
Ain’t it funny how some people pop into your head so easily?
I haven’t seen you in there for so long
I hope that life without a chaperone is what you thought it’d be
I hope your brother’s El Camino runs forever
I hope the world sees the same person that you always were to me
And may all your favorite bands stay together
I hope that life without a chaperone is what you thought it’d be
I hope your brother’s El Camino runs forever
I hope the world sees the same person that you always were to me
And may all your favorite bands stay together
And may all your favorite bands stay together

    Saw Dawes live in April of this year at the Fillmore in Philly! I drove ten hours for it. I cried, laughed, made new friends, and had a great bonding moment with my best friend. These guys are truly amazing. One of my all time favorite bands for sure

    Edit/UPDATE:
    On saturday i found out they were in Charlottesville celebrating the ten year anniversary of all your favorite bands. It was only a hour and a half drive. I bought one of the last tickets and got there. This was so random and unplanned but yet again another great performance.

    What a great, stripped down, version of this song. Thanks to WesternAF for putting out consistently compelling videos. May all your favorite bands stay together!

    An old classic. Always think of one of my favorite bands, Diarrhea Planet, when I listen to this song.

    Long Live Diarrhea Planet, Long Live Dawes, and Long Live Everyone You Know!
