Just saw U in BCN, 6 hour drive from Alicante just to listen to your art live. You should know how deep in the soul you touch people with your magnetic voice, for me it's almost hypnotical. Been through a rough year so far, many changes, divorce, fighting to keep my 8years old child happy, hard times in my job too, and you, without knowing, have been there to hold me in one piece, to keep me sane. Last friday, while Mavica was playing I was a few steps away from you, wanted to thank you personally without being weird, that was not the right moment, so here I am. THANK YOU JOSH AND BAND for what you do. Keep creating and fulfilling our souls.
Beautiful song. You are my biggest musical inspiration, most listened to Spotify artist last and this year. You deserve all the fame in the world this is true music.
I listen to Blanco White’s music a lot and it is extremely inspirational. I write poems and have used some of his lyrics in the poetry. This song and Outsider are my favorites. I know a lot of people never bother to even listen to the lyrics and only concern themselves with the melody. They are missing out on so much of what makes the music so beautiful. Blanco has an incredible voice and it’s easy to just listen to his calming tone. Still the lyrics stand out and can bring you to tears.
Sol is a masterpiece, it's extraordinarily beautiful. I have never been more emotionally moved by anything. And listening to the part between 4:00 and 5:30 for the first time is a unique experience that needs to be experienced by every sentient being on the universe. Much love Josh... ♥️
One of the best songs I’ve heard in ages ....” maybe time has the key , to one last door “....weeks later this is still one of my favourite songs of all time ....this version is truly amazing!
After a lot of thought and playing of this song ....I’ve decided to have it played at my funeral....at the reflective part ....thanks for writing such a beautiful song !..
Sol In a town on the heights, We met in sound, Let the cover of night Draw us down, Further south Where I was young And caught up, In the skies on the way. I see them now. I'm not the same, Nor you with your little one Who needs more than love. A mother afraid, I had it so easy, You were the one who fought. Was I a better man When you held me up, And gave me back more than time? Was I a better man, with you Sol? Maybe time has the key, To one last door. Where our eyes cannot meet Without being sure, That the sound had always Run inside us, From a start out of reach, I see it now. I'm not the same, Nor you with your little one Who needs more than love. A mother afraid, I had it so easy, You were the one who fought. Was I a better man When you held me up, And gave me back more than time? Was I a better man, with you Sol? Some shimmers hide the way, And when the idols are gone The sun raises others the same, Knowing well, The silent thought has no answer, no. Maybe I was too blind To recognise The buried fire Was lying aglow. If I need no forgiveness I'm all but forgotten, Lost in the changing of the times. With dust on the table, The quena lies broken, Waiting on one last songline, To live another life Dream it Sol. Said I'm sorry that I never wrote, Though I meant to I just couldn't start. Most of the time I spend alone, Just trying to make sense of it all. Have you ever been alone? No you ain't ever been alone, No, not really Sol. No you ain't ever been alone, No, not really Sol.
I listened to all of Blanco White's music while I was reading the book, 'Into Thin Air' by Jon Krakauer. All of his music beautifully accompanies the excitement, and spirit of adventure, and insane ambition of the book; all of which you can sort of feel while imagining those innumerable, awe-inspiring, snowy peaks of the Himalayas, and the incessantly sought after summit of Mt. Everest, and the sunshine and the shadows, and the prayer flags etc.. And then of course the waves of sorrow and grief and suffering and numbness and disappointment in the book; which you try to comprehend--thinking of all those people that died up on that mountain and the suffering and the tragedies that occurred. I will always remember reading that book when I listen to these songs. This music is incredible because it is so moving, and so beautiful.
I thought I liked this song but I just took a look at the lyrics and now I'm absolutely heartbroken T_T This song made me so sad because it's so beautiful, musically and lyrically and this version brings so much more depth and emotions into the song. I am crying guys just bawling I feel so much of the weight of the song
Josh, I absolutely love all your music but this one still sends shivers up my spine every single time I listen to it - must be running into thousands by now - and I just know there's so much more amazingness to come from you and I can't wait! May there never ever be one last song line!!!
Who disliked this song? Come on whoever that was! This song is utterly beautiful musically and lyrically. Shame I missed out on the London gig as I only discovered this music after the tickets had sold out. Got a feeling the future tours are going to be in larger venues. Just amazing music. Deserve all the success.
Jesus Christ! This is the most wonderful song ever! Mesmerizing! Josh, you are amazing! All love and support from Brazil. Thanks for this little piece of heaven!

Stunning, lyrical, mesmerizing .. agree with all former posts. Please continue to bless us all with your musical genius. These are soul moving songs colored with rare authenticity and deeply moving emotions. Sometimes pain is as important as joy. (Witness Kahlil Gibran: On Pain .. "If you could keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life your pain would not seem less wonderous than your joy .. and you would watch with serenity through the winter of your grief."), You bring us joy with your music.

I have listened to this song about 5 times in a row with tears running down my face, it's so beautifully emotive.....
Same thing happened to me the first time I head this song.
Beautiful song. You are my biggest musical inspiration, most listened to Spotify artist last and this year. You deserve all the fame in the world this is true music.
Please, do not stop creating poetry and music..

Sol
In a town on the heights,
We met in sound,
Let the cover of night
Draw us down,
Further south
Where I was young
And caught up,
In the skies on the way.
I see them now.
I'm not the same,
Nor you with your little one
Who needs more than love.
A mother afraid,
I had it so easy,
You were the one who fought.
Was I a better man
When you held me up,
And gave me back more than time?
Was I a better man,
with you Sol?
Maybe time has the key,
To one last door.
Where our eyes cannot meet
Without being sure,
That the sound had always
Run inside us,
From a start out of reach,
I see it now.
I'm not the same,
Nor you with your little one
Who needs more than love.
A mother afraid,
I had it so easy,
You were the one who fought.
Was I a better man
When you held me up,
And gave me back more than time?
Was I a better man,
with you Sol?
Some shimmers hide the way,
And when the idols are gone
The sun raises others the same,
Knowing well,
The silent thought has no answer, no.
Maybe I was too blind
To recognise
The buried fire
Was lying aglow.
If I need no forgiveness
I'm all but forgotten,
Lost in the changing of the times.
With dust on the table,
The quena lies broken,
Waiting on one last songline,
To live another life
Dream it Sol.
Said I'm sorry that I never wrote,
Though I meant to I just couldn't start.
Most of the time I spend alone,
Just trying to make sense of it all.
Have you ever been alone?
No you ain't ever been alone,
No, not really Sol.
No you ain't ever been alone,
No, not really Sol.

This music is incredible because it is so moving, and so beautiful.
Now that you mention it some tunes do slightly remind me of Vedder's soundtrack for the Into The Wild movie, just to make a link there.
Yeah that's true too. Kind of an adventurous type of genre.

hypnotic, the best word to describe his music.
To my HG - Maybe time has the key to one last door x❤️
I love Blanco White and his beautiful music

Que paz ao ouvir essa música.
I love you so much. You are perfect ❣😍 I am Turkish fan 🙈🌹
Can someone write the lyrics, please? No puedo entender
Does anyone happen to know what guitar Blanco plays in this song? Fell in love with his music a few years ago. Can't wait for the album!
Looks like a Fender Stratocaster. If you're hunting for that sound most of the work will come from the pedals really.
👍 💯
😍😍😍❤️❤️
"Most of the time I spend alone,

Your voice is hauntingly beautiful. The music, the lyrics, everything about this is pure magic. I can't wait for a full-length album from you.
Hej Elsa, you found him!😊🎉
Why the fuck he's not viral.. Its a shame really where shitty idols are becoming famous and great ones are buried and under-rated
Thing i can't understand:
1. Rocket scince
2. This has only 111k views
Yo blanco I created a subreddit for you. Hope it'll be thriving one day
Stunning.
Beautiful.
