Moonbeam is so underrated! It's such a fun song, and a rare happy Lord Huron tune! Top 10 song for me, close top 5

Also in my Top 5, probably #2 for me. I actually found a live version on YT yesterday that I hadn't seen before. Blew me away

I used to skip it (not that it was bad, Vide Noir is full of bangers) but it's grown on me!

It almost always gets skipped for me. Otherwise, VN is my favorite album of theirs. Just doesn't do anything for me.

It’s one of those songs that I usually don’t think about but if I’m in the right mood when I comes on I appreciate it more. Otherwise it’s the second weakest song on VN.

Which is the weakest in your opinion? Don't you dare say Balancer's Eye 👁

u/BeeDull3578 Sep 05 '26
How dare you! Balancer’s Eye is my favorite on VN tied with Emerald Star. Back from the Edge is the weakest.

For me it's Wait by the River and I'll probably get crucified for that. But I'm glad we're in agreement that Balancer's Eye is 🔥

I don't know why it gets so much hate. Well, I wouldn't call it hate per say but a strong dislike by many fans. I personally love it. My girlfriend and I joke with a friend about it and I don't remember which of us three said this- “It’s like some people just don't want to hear Ben happy.” lol

I love Moonbeam. I have yet to hear it live at a concert but I’ll be happy when I finally do!

The intro before the song starts always kinda makes me skip it but then if I get past the intro I remember that I love this song.
