    I love how now your "serious" non-april's fools songs are just as funny and wild as your yearly april's fools songs. It's so refreshing to see an artist not taking themselves seriously and just doing whatever they want regardless of the codes and topics and structures of what should be done. Reminds me of a piece of advice from your 5 songwriting tips video, something like "be a genius, everyone has wild thoughts but very few people actually make that thought into a thing". You truly are a genius Tom, and such a source of inspiration

    "Could these heavy lives leave light...could these muddy knees dream again?" I'm tearing up. Your songs make me feel old things in a new way. Thank you for sharing your soul and your voice with us!

    Lyrics consisting of only five-letter words makes my Wordle-loving heart sing.

    Now whenever we're stuck for a 5 letter word, all we need to do is sing this song and we roll again. Most beautiful cheat sheet ever

    I always look forward to your April Fool's songs, but this one truly tops it, the creativity to use the world's recent obsession with wordle AND make a decent song using only those five letter words? Absolutely genius. I adore it
    + the animation is gorgeous as well

    I've listened to most of your songs and this one is such a wonderful example of your style. Playful and touching and full of heart, never taking itself too seriously, in a way that honours the everyday and the small. It's the loveliest thing. I like wordle for the same reasons everyone else likes it: wordle is an uncomplicated joy, in an online world polluted by excess. It fits your music's philosophy of "little joys". I could write forever about all your music but it's an April Fool's Day song and nobody wants twenty pages of analysis, so I'll stop here. Thank you for being so genuinely creative. Best wishes to yourself and the animators!!!

    "Could these muddy knees dream again?" Welp, that hit. I think all your songs are beautiful in the most human way. They resonate; and they mean so much to me. I am sure with many others as well. Thank you for your music. As always.

    Wow, Tom. I love this so much. I feel like someone just handed me a cup of hot tea, put slippers on my feet, and wrapped me in a warm blanket. I have tears in my eyes. Thank you for this kind piece of humanity. I didn't know how much I needed this today.

    I went to your berlin concert last week and immediately fell in love with this song! (even though I didn't figure out the riddle)
    Since then, I've only listened to your music :)
    With "drift along small word" you once again proved what a creative and inspirational songwriter you are. Your songs are all so beautiful, exciting and joyful at the same time that listening to your music is my favorite way of escapism (+ your instagram activity; really love the little stories you share there)

    hi tom - i just wanted to say how inspiring your music is to me in so many ways. not only is it equal parts funny and playful and beautiful and haunting, but you set an incredible example for aspiring independent musicians and songwriters. you have forged your own path in your own unique way - and with a wonderful sense of humor. i also love that you showcase so many talented visual artists in your animated videos - this one is delightful - and shine a light on up-and-coming musicians as well. i always look to you as a shining example of what is possible for independent artists. keep up the amazing work!
