Vance Joy: "All I Ever Wanted...Is Time."

Vance Joy debuted with a splash in 2014 with the song "Riptide" and followed that up with "Mess Is Mine." Both of these songs are fine examples of the modern singer/songwriter genre. I picked up the album in late 2014 and listed once or twice, so I basically missed the gem "All I Ever Wanted" until I went back this year. This song soon found its way into heavy rotation for me. The lyrics just really speak to me. This version finds him with his guitar in a room. It's bare bones, but it is beautiful in its sparseness.
