Description[]
It has been described as a song about the "beauty and joy of being in a band and the pain of losing one another to illness and time".[2][3] Besides being a salute to lost bandmates and a love letter to rock, Rolling Stone describes "Ghosts" as a probable future live favorite when concerts resume, and sounding like a "revved-up version of rockers from The River, such as "Two Hearts".[4]
