1. Devotion is the latest musical project from Mark Palm, the creative mind behind Go It Alone. This project finds Palm moving even further in the direction that was becoming evident in the final Go It Alone recordings; slow, dark, rock oriented hardcore. In the fall of 2008 a ten song LP entitled Bastard Son Of Affluence Blues was recorded with Jesse Gander at The Hive Creative Labs in Burnaby British Columbia. In addition to Palm’s vocals and guitar playing, drum and percussion performances were handled by Aaron O’Neil of ON.
Drawing influence from hardcore, rock, and beyond, Bastard Son Of Affluence Blues is a forty minute monolith of heavy, yet tuneful, hard volume.

7. Devotion is a Neofolk /Experimental band from Wisconsin, United States.
Troy Schafer (of Kinit Her, Wreathes, Rain Drinkers, et al.) and frequent collaborator Dani Schafer began this recording project, a musical work to celebrate their relationship together, just after moving in with each other in 2009. Over the course of the following years they continued to develop and deepen the content of this musical project just as they have their personal relations. Now married and living far from where they began, they have finally turned in the result of their efforts, a beautiful record under the banner of the aptly christened Devotion. Those already familiar with the Schafers' musical forays into the hidden recesses of folkish trance and the moving cadence of ancient melodies, as is well documented in their work with Kinit Her and Wreathes, will be thrilled to hear them sink all the more deep within these sounds of their shared atmosphere and to stretch out within the music of their own hearth. Maidenly vocals soar, with glorious harmonies twisting over a stirring rush of stringed and brass instruments and propulsive percussion, with Dani's voice drawing familiar timbres from the memories of classic 1960's acid folk goddesses. Despite the haunting inherent in this and all music born of those with their roots deep in the soil of Wisconsin, Devotion is able to safely make their prayers within the sanctuary of the each others loving grace, and this feeling weaves itself with warm reassurance throughout the entire album.

You are not alone
Devotion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Embracing you with my hands
You gazed at me
With eyes full of love
And made me understand
That I was meant to share it with you
My heart, my mind, my soul
Then I open my eyes and all I see
But I know someday that you'll be by my side
Cause I know God's just waiting till the time is right
CHORUS
God will you keep her safe from the thunderstorm?
When the day is cold will you keep her warm?
When darkness falls will you please shine her the way?
God will you let her know that I love her so?
When there's no one there that she's not alone
Just close her eyes
And let her know my heart is beating with hers
So I pray until the day
When our hearts will beat as one
I will wait so patiently
For that day to come
I know someday that you'll be by my side
Cause I know God's just waiting till the time is right
Repeat CHORUS
It's beating with hers
My heart is beating with hers
It's beating with hers
Repeat CHORUS
Ohhh.. it's beating with hers.
[spoken]
It's beating with hers.
Devotion's song "You're Not Alone" describes a dream in which the singer holds their loved one close and shares an intense moment of connection. However, when they wake up, they realize that they are alone and the moment was just a dream. The singer then prays to God to keep their loved one safe and to let them know that they are loved. The song ends with the singer expressing their hope that one day they will be united with their loved one and that their hearts will beat as one.
The song explores the themes of love, longing, and faith. It highlights the power of dreams, prayers, and hope in keeping the spirit alive even in times of loneliness. The lyrics also reveal the vulnerability and the emotional depth of the singer, who is struggling with being separated from their loved one. The use of the word "God" indicates that the singer's love and faith are intertwined and that they seek comfort and guidance from a higher power.

In a dream I hold you close
I imagine holding you in my arms while I'm asleep
Embracing you with my hands
Wrapping my arms tightly around you and holding you close to me
You gazed at me
You looked deeply into my eyes
With eyes full of love
Your eyes were filled with the emotion of love
And made me understand
You helped me to realize
That I was meant to share it with you
I was meant to share my heart, mind, and soul with you
My heart, my mind, my soul
Every part of me
Then I open my eyes and all I see
I wake up and see
Reality shows I'm alone
I am physically alone in reality
But I know someday that you'll be by my side
I am confident that someday you will be with me
Cause I know God's just waiting till the time is right
I trust that God is waiting for the perfect moment
God will you keep her safe from the thunderstorm?
I pray that you will protect her from danger
When the day is cold will you keep her warm?
I pray that you will comfort her during difficult times
When darkness falls will you please shine her the way?
I pray that you will guide her through dark times
God will you let her know that I love her so?
I pray that you will help her understand how much I love her
When there's no one there that she's not alone
I want her to know that she is not alone, even when she is physically by herself
Just close her eyes
I want her to close her eyes
And let her know my heart is beating with hers
I want her to feel my love for her in her heart
So I pray until the day
I will continue to pray until
When our hearts will beat as one
The day when our hearts will be united
I will wait so patiently
I will wait with patience
For that day to come
For the day when we will be together
It's beating with hers
My heart is beating in sync with hers
My heart is beating with hers
My heart is united with hers
Ohhh.. it's beating with hers.
My heart is in tune with hers
[spoken] It's beating with hers.
My heart is syncopated with hers

This song means so much to me than it may for anyone else. Earlier in November, my Grandpa said he'd take my little brother and I to see Devotion in theaters. Later that month, he got sick and had to go to the hospital. And afterward, he started to get sicker. Doctor's said it was gas, but we later learned he was priming for a heart attack/stroke.
On December 4th, 2022... there was a fire near where we lived with what looked like almost 20 fire engines/ambulances and what not. So after we'd did our routine with my Grandma, of going to sheetz and getting a cup of hot tea. We went over to check out the fire, my grandpa was both a fireman and a Veteran of the United States Air Force.
After we saw what everything was about, we started to head back to the car. My grandpa was strong as fort knox and we never knew anything was wrong, but on the way back he confessed he had trouble balancing and standing. So I let him hold onto me as we walked, he kept saying he needed to get to the car... Where my grandma was at... But as we turned the corner, I looked back at his face, and told him to sit down. He later collapsed and I held him in my arms until EMS could arrive. When we got to the hospital, we found out they were able to restart his heart. He later passed away at 4am on December 5th, 2022.
He is my hero, my friend, and the only person who was ever like a father to me. He raised me!
So tonight, honoring our original plans. I bought a ticket for him, me, and my brother to this movie; Devotion. Toward the end, we were crying but when this played... It damn near broke us... This song has a sentimental meaning to us. We later took a picture outside the auditorium near a poster. Me and my brother kneeled by the bench, while we left the bench empty under the poster. Just for him...
Rest in peace, pap. We love you, miss you, and cherish every moment we had... You will forever live on as a part of us.
December 27th, 1954 - December 5th, 2022.

It was shot so wonderfully and the performances….insane. Good insane.
But usually I’m a “running for the door guy”when a movie ends. These vocals….SO GOOD and so well produced. I was locked in my seat—hands on my heart with my mouth open sobbing…then laughing that I was sobbing. For the record, last time I did that was when the Seahawks lost the Super Bowl on the two yard line. Ha.
But…Devotion and 1917….both EASILY my favorite war movies. Was great to learn about Corsairs…and—don’t get me wrong—I appreciate all 478 Nam and WW2 movies. Love some.
But this one had so much heart. I wanna go again :)

I cried so hard at the end of this film and this was the perfect song for the credits, so well done! I hope people get out and see Devotion

I got in the car after the movie and played this song and just broke down
thomas GEORGE
Great story and a perfect song to end it
Edwin Ramos
Hudner received a Medal of Honor for risking his life to save Brown life. That right there is the definition of devotion. I read about both of them in Google and their story must be told to everyone.

Joe’s voice only seems to get better and better over the years. His range is incredible. Khalid is amazing also. I wouldn’t be surprised if they got the Oscar nomination that’s been buzzing around.
AJMs
I would love to see them performing this live at the Oscars. 🤩
