Great actor, funny, nice guy, and he's also a great fuckin song writer and singer. Really unfair Jacob.
Eon Buendia check him out on game grumps! he's so funny
Yeah I saw those vids
Makes me even angrier on how unfair Jacob is
Eon Buendia a true rival to Donald Glover
you think it's unfair being in your shoes? try being in jacobs. it isnt easy being an angel; no one is stopping you from choosing that path.
How has no one realised his talent after 'stronger than ever'...
Dankus Memus that's what I don't get either!
Yeah. He deserves much more. He is amazing at what he does.
You mean why hasn't he sold out to a major label / mtv / pop radio crap? Because it's not his style most likely.
people realise his talent, almost 4k likes is no joke, i agree he deserves more, but still...
They have game of thrones
I'm mad at how underrated he is
Tazzi R same! I must have heard one of the singles on the radio from his last album but my brother played it all of they time and it's amazing!
Not listened to it all but it's up there with my favourite albums. Usually I don't hear many full albums unless someone I know has played them but I really love it.
Couldn't track down a CD so not got it yet though
Right??
Nah dont be, the fewer people who do know his music actually value his work that's all that means. Appreciate tf outta him while we still have him because when music like this becomes a commodity the industry and the public are going to try and run him into the ground and not know it nor care.
So damn true
IM FUMING TOO
Raleigh Ritchie directed this himself. It's his debut video direction. I say he did amazing.
Three years later and this song still hits harder than any song I’ve ever listened to. To have an artist who so uniquely understands what it’s like to be someone with mental illness, it feels like he’s crawled in my mind and put words to things I never could. Thank you Jacob. This song, and your music has helped me out of some really dark places. Even in the worst of it, your music was like a best friend that was always there for me, that somehow knew exactly what I was going through and feeling. It validated my pain and told me it was okay. Just…thank you for that. I means a lot that I’m never alone when it’s the darkest.
lyrics for anyone that was interested.
Hold me for a minute
I'm just that far away
From being considered
Clinically insane
I need your attention
Affection is my way
Out of the danger zone
I feel no lightness
Days like this are priceless
Given myself licence to indulge in all my vices
Woah, don't go
Withdrawal is my soul
Weakness, I'm cold
Smoke [draws?]
Smoke blows from my nose
And keeps me warm
I know where I'm going
I've seen limbo before
Straight jacket
Put on my straight jacket
I'm on a different planet
Let it go, don't panic
I'm fine
Can't hack it
My mind is at it again
I'm manic, I'm manic
Straight jacket
Put on my straight jacket
I'm on a different planet
Let it go, don't panic
I'm fine
Can't hack it
My mind is at it again
I'm manic, I'm manic
Split right down the middle
And half of me is fine
My mind is a riddle
Typical Gemini
Star signs are my excuse
To hide this type of self abuse
I feel no lightness
Days like this are priceless
Given myself licence to indulge in all my vices
Please don't mind me
I'm on borrowed time
It's space I need to validate my life
I wanna roll with the punches
Go rouge, programming
Change no I don't want it
Wanna break out
No I put my straightjacket on
And go home
I don't wanna be here no more
I don't wanna go
Straight jacket
Put on my straight jacket
I'm on a different planet
Let it go, don't panic
I'm fine
Can't hack it
My mind is at it again
I'm manic, I'm manic
Straight jacket
Put on my straight jacket
I'm on a different planet
Let it go, don't panic
I'm fine
Can't hack it
My mind is at it again
I'm manic, I'm manic
The devil's in my head
Stirring up a mess
Taking advantage of my unsteadiness
My readiness for death
The vans are pulling up
Fuck if I know why
I'm hearing cuckcoo clocks
I'm seeing angels in the sky
The war is almost started
The cavalry's on time
Fight amongst the foot soldiers
But the war is in my mind
The war is in my mind
[Outro]
Straight jacket
Straight jacket
Straight jacket
Don't panic
Straight jacket
Straight jacket
Don't want it
Thanks......
Obrigado
Posted the lyrics 💯 "I wanna roll with the punches Go rouge, programming." I heard Go rogue. U G got mixed up, or i heard it wrong.
I just love how you're really... true. That's the clearest way I can put it, Raleigh Ritchie.
he put my mental illness into words i feel less alone now that this song exists, thank you Raleigh your life is important, thank you for sharing your talent
how is your music not more widely recognised?
You need to sell out aka sell your soul for that
Because this is just a part time job.. he is full time unsullied
I know right crazyyy, he's so lyrically and vocally gifted
Is anyone else freaked out by Jacob's facial expressions? I'm so use to his blank look in Game of Thrones that this kinda scares me lol.
Fantastic song though.
Jake Brown yeah I was like "Is this the same guy? I don't know what he looks like anymore"
Jake Brown just watch adulthood
Jake Brown lol pretty sure that's why he used so many crazy ones here. To freak people out
Jake Brown righttt but those are so real too
This is before he became an Unsullied.
Binge watching GoT. Asked google a question and I wind up here on UA-cam listening to this amazing talented man. I'm in season 7 and I dont care anymore!
I love what he does with his facial expression in this video...as if hes actually having an episode. He was really into this video
“fighting monster foot soldiers but the war is in my mind” a lyric that til this day circles around my head
*musically, we met on a bench in "stronger than ever". here we are now in a "strait jacket", on another bench. it's all coming full circle i say.* *I love that you basically put your heart/soul on your sleeve in your songs/videos. i havent seen a single generic shit, once, everything has a story-line, filled with such visceral emotions... thank you for making us FEEL. these are emotions we all have in our essence, but you managed to pull them out from being intangible, to being manifested in your videos. did i say thanks? THANKS :)*
truth.
crackle krispies for real I show ppl his music all of the time and I gotta start with what got me listening and that's "Stronger Than Ever"
Xavier Thomas it's a musical journey, i tell you. And it's even more magical when you can bring friends along and convert them. I find that it's a special bond when you share music with friends and they receive it and love it the way you do! Cheers, mate =)
I KNOW it's wrong that I and most of my friends don't pay for music, tbh most people don't these days, but after hearing this song and few others of his I went straight to iTunes and bought his albums!! Best investment ever , I listen to it everyday to work which used to be an annoying 1 hour drive!! Thanks Jacob!!!
I feel like all of his songs are about depression. It's not a bad thing, I love em all. They help me through my bad episodes...
That's what i thought too, about this one and "Stronger than ever". The lyrics seem to suggest so and i wonder if maybe he's struggling with something. Stay strong!
Jacob Anderson, you are amazing
I literally like every single song he makes.
Please this guy should be seen !! He is good
I love your songs so much!!! dont stop making them💘
yuli barel Some of the best music.
DJ Squishy indeed!
yuli barel I'm really enjoying his stuff.
udyy hijujjuuzubjhyt8j
wow this man can do no wrong another hit!
I'm amazed by how well he can demonstrate different emotions. The happiness expression starting at 1:40 got me really hard. It makes me think of when was the last time that I felt this kind of happiness.
This is in my top 3 songs of all time. It scratches an itch in my neurodivergent brain that no other song can
Yay the English Frank Ocean is back :P Raleigh is a G ......
you probably dont know sampha, right? you should, tho. sounds like the same
Haha found this comment funny. English Frank ocean
THERES A VIDEO YES. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE OF A SONG
Amazing song. The music video told so much just through emotions and faces.
it's like he's in my head with these lyrics. couldn't have found this song at a better time
7 years later still hits. Classic song.
Wtf. So...Grey Worm makes incredible music?
Damn, I love that last bit starting from 3:22...
This man is a music genius
I love you. I was born March 11...in Bethlehem. 5 decades ago
HE IS BEAUTIFUL
These lyrics are fucking genius? This is one Of The most genuine artists out there, yet he is so not known
Keep coming back to this. What a divine peace of art!!
my hero. i hope he performs on graham norton again.
You're awesome Raleigh Ritchie!!
I’ve never had a reaction like I just had to a song before. Wow, that’s all I have to say, is wow. I started balling my eyes out. That Gemini line hit me hard. I’m so happy I found you, thank you.
It started with his song Bloodsport now I love most of his song. Great artist. 💚💛
I miss "Grey Worm" ❤❤❤
I honestly didn’t really think much of the song at first and then I watched the video and It just clicked. I’ve been obsessed with the lyrics the production everything for the last two years. I need more
this lifted my soul!!! another beautiful song!!!
thank game of thrones producers for exposing amazing talented people like this
Took me like my tenth viewing to realize the car at the end is looping. All of Jacobs videos seem to have that one caveat near the end that undercuts the dramatic tension or brevity to sober the mood. Love it.
Freaking out now that we finally have the whole EP, I'd been watching for the rest of it for longest
Everything this man does is GOLD!!! It's timeless
love this guy. glad to see new music from him! super chill vibe and an easy listen
This man is so abesolutely wonderful!! I pray he continues to grow and keeps writing such raw and open music 🥰🥰🥰🥰
you don’t know how much i relate to this. raleigh you are my inspiration to carry on
Thank you for making this song, it's beautiful
Right there with ya on this song, my man.
Back here again this year. This song feels timeless.
this song and video is so amazing! really makes you wonder
i dont think i could begin to love this song and this man any more
he did it again man this got me all emotional I'm in my feelings but this is great I love you man keep making more beautiful music
love you, your music, your acting, anything you do is a masterpiece!
One of my favourite artists, I can relate so much to every single one of his songs, beautiful lyric writing and singing
Really feeling this guy's music. sounds amazing on Vinyl.
Another great song from an amazing artist.
Love Raleigh Ritchies music so much!! It’s so great. Only found him a little over a week ago, wished I found him sooner. So underrated
Jacob is so multi talented. Love it!!!
This song really hit home and I can resonate with it I want to thank you for that Jacob.

Your songs have been speaking to me so strongly. Than you for your music.
I really appreciate your gift, Raleigh, thank you for sharing with us ♥
Didn’t even realise you released more music and I’m crying at how I can always relate some way to what you’re saying, thanks for the real music Ritchie you’re one of my most favourite artists
It's incredible how literally EVERY single one of his songs is amazing, awesome actor and in my opinion even better musician. Great talent
Lyrics in your songs are so outstanding. Truly unique. I wish more song writers were so talented. Thank you for this art work.
You have an amazing voice. Please just continue what you're doing, Raleigh Ritchie!
I am so glad that I discovered him and his songs. They relate to me to a horrifying extent and it's like someone helping you to speak out the unspeakable.
god this song is so fucking good. this entire EP is. one of my favorite singers out there. he deserves so much more recognition than he's getting.
honestly one of the BEST artists of this generation!!! never disappoints
It's so good to hear music about another mind at war that soothes my own. Thank you for this song Jacob.
This song deserves millions of views. I'm a fan of your music as well as your acting.
the lyrics of this song are so deep, the beautiful beat lightens it up , but I feel this on a spiritual level 🔥
I loved this!!!! Felt it!!!
an perfect actor and a singer omfg
This is so good!!! He is such a multi-talented person!!!
Continue being one of the best dude.
You are a beautiful person Raleigh Ritchie and it really shows through your music. I wish more people could see your talent. This song, Stronger Than Ever, Sicko, Bloodsport, You're a Man Now, Boy, etc are all so good. My heart sings when you perform!! Please never stop making music.
Video goes so well with the song, which is amazing in itself. Thank you for your music!!
why do I love this so much 😭😭😭
2:12 - 2:41 what great soulful flow. I love it.
His facial expressions show how we hide pain under a smile. god bless yall
The fact that this doesn't have at least 1 million views is a crime
This song speaks to me on a level i can't even express.
man u helping me alot with ure music pls never stop im about to cry
this is so beautiful. I am in love with your music. thank you.
😍😍 those lyrics tho. in every song, it's not just about singing or the tunes, lyrics is fiiiine
Every song you make I love.
Love the emotion in this video. The song is fantastic too! No doubt top 3 of my favourite artists!
Those other songs on the EP were PERFECT, but this song is just something else.. Glad it got a video, eagerly awaiting the next one man, KEEP IT UP! MY GOD!
Another great song. Raleigh really has his own place in the music world for me at the moment. Really under the commercial radar for some reason at the moment. Sure his music will explode soon.
This song should be recognized for a award. These lyrics and production is brilliant.
I'm not sure what was going through your head whilst writing these beautiful lyrics, but I took it towards my own situation and everything just fitted together. Wether you wrote these lyrics based on your own world right now or wether it was imagined and written, I applaud your creativity. Thanks for a lovely song
you have such a strong, honest and powerful voice! i really admire and respect that you stay true to who you are and what you want your music to sound like...thats why it sounds unlike anything else. its very nostalgic of when that was common in music. thank you! showing Bay Luv out here in California!
Wow! Can I just say your acting paid off!!! I was believing it, and the emotions, the expressions were just so realistic! Honestly? It was just amazing. A huge fan of your album, totally loving your songs! xxx
oh my..... this song hit my state of mind right now tonight, msging my friends feeling manning changing meds, wanting reassurance im not going to feel trapped again.
The whole package is on par!! Song visual and concept 👌 salute 🖖
This might be my favorite song ever.
