Watch: Cowboy Junkies – The Things We Do To Each Other

The Things We Do To Each Other is the second single from the new Cowboy Junkies album, All That Reckoning (out 13 July). Whether commenting on the fragile state of the world or on personal relationships, the new collection of songs encourages the listener to take notice. It also may be the most powerful album Cowboy Junkies have yet recorded.

Michael Timmins commented about the song and video “It is the oldest tactic in the playbook of social control. Create a culture of fear and then begin to manipulate that fear to distract, divert and divide. Unfortunately, the end result is that fear usually turns to hate and hate is a human emotion that is impossible to predict and control.”
