I don't even know him but I've missed him so much. He has a way with words and an incredible ability to name the feelings I can't explain myself but struggle with everyday. His music inspired my art in so many ways. There's just something so familiar about his songs, they feel like seeing someone you love after long time or the warm, tingly feeling of holding a warm mug of tea on a cold day
I think why all of his fans feel this way like he helped you with your art he helped so many people with different issues that's because we feel he is genuine he doesn't lie to us, isn't trying to be popular he just makes art and is honest and real he doesn't fake anything and that's really rare these days
K H exactly. He, as cliche as it sounds, saved my life. I was in a dark place before I discovered Keaton’s music and instead of his music fueling my sadness, it wrapped around me like a blanket telling me that it was alright.
@@Xenonic2 i feel u : ( Keaton got me through so many depressive episodes and sleepless nights and i'm so grateful he shares his art with the world despite his own anxiety and insecurities because that shit ain't easy. ( also I hope you're doing better now, buddy. take care of yourself! 💕)
moonys tea I know it’s hard for him, but I’m grateful for his music regardless. He’s my favorite artist. Nobody has ever helped me in the way that his music has. I’m doing a lot better, thank you for asking! Hope you are, even during these stressful times! Much love
Same. There was a time last year when I just play his songs (because they were the only ones saved in my device that time) for months of emptiness and there's this certain feeling from the way his voice shakes that fill me.
Lyrics I'm an astronaut baby I'll work in the night I'm a certain kind of crazy I'll live in my mind I'm a deep sea diver I'll find ways to breath I'm deep undercover I don't look like me I'm paperthin 3x Just break me in I'm a part time mortician I cannot shake death And I'm a ageing physician Ain't got much healing left I'm a character actor I feed myself a line But it leaves me pretty good At pretending I'm fine I'm paperthin 3x Just break me in I'm a struggling comedian I can't find the laughs I'm a poor mathematician I do things by halves I'm a weekday dancer Can't kick the movement from my shoes I'm a heartless casino I win when you lose I'm paperthin 3x Just break me in
Young Keaton looks like the kid that wanders up to you while you're in the checkout line and just quietly stares into your soul for a bit until he gets called back by his mum.
As sad as this song is, it makes me feel in love. With life itself. Keaton's voice just does this thing where it destroys everything around for a moment, and all that's left is just his fragile voice and the story of the song. I love it.
I was seven years old the last time I saw my father alive. All I have left of him is two sweaters, a Carhartt jacket, a tool belt, some photos, and several home videos, much like the ones here. I’ve always felt a disconnect between the “me” of today and the “me” I see interacting with my dad - I don’t have many memories of him at all, and the few that are there have him entirely blocked out, as if he’s this nebulous void of nothingness. I guess that can happen when you’re a kid and you don’t have the best memories of a person. Watching this, and hearing this song, gives me the eeriest sense of déjà vu. My memories have always felt paperthin, and I’ve always felt like I don’t know what role I play when it comes to actually being his daughter since he passed away. My condolences go out to you, Keaton. The pain in some of these lyrics is downright palpable - it resonates with the pain and the grief from losing my dad, some of which has become my traveling companion in this journey we call “life.”
First the little cameo in Tom Rosenthals April Fools song and now this!!! 2020 isn't so bad after all! I'm glad you feel more comfortable with this kind of music again! Thank you and nothing but love
I love this song. I dont know exactly how to describe it but it feels....powerful. Yes his other music is VERY powerful and moving but this has power in another way. His voice seems stronger. This sadness in his voice is not like before. It has not resigned to lay staring at the roof as tears dry. This sadness feels different. I dont know how. But it does. Almost like looking into the eyes that hurt you and speaking your pain. Even if those eyes are your own. Even knowing the pain will remain. Simply saying it. But thats not even talking about the lyrics. I just sound crazy idk. Its 3:44am.
I don't know if its because i didn't heard him singing for quite some time, but i just got chills and teared up in the first phrase. Also, there are other songs in which sounds very simillar in singing to this from Keaton.
@@pedrohenriquea.1477 I teared up too. I love this song :-)))) . I know what you mean in similar in singing, which you're totally right. He has a very certain way of...portraying emotion in his voice? Yeah. I think songs like kronos or you dont know how lucky you are have a very similar vibe. But i also think all of his songs have a different sadness to each. Im probably over thinking it lol.
This is different, in my viewing, from everything else Keaton has ever done. It's music coming from an artist who has experienced himself and knows it's strengths. I greatly appreciate it.
I would like firstly to express my sincerest condolences and sympathy to you and your family. Thank you for sharing this with us, Keaton. I couldn't help myself, I always end up with some tears in my eyes when I listen to your beautiful voice and your lyrics get to my soul.
Dear Keaton Henson, I would like you to know how you make me feel. I would... The one who makes me cry for everything, crying because i feel the life surrounding me. Crying because of the feeling your words make me see. The reality of being happy for being truthfully sorrow. I appreciate you being the one who makes me vulnerable, who „breaks me in”. All the best from one of them.
Indeed. His father was Nicky Henson, as featured in this video with a very young Keaton. One of Nicky's best remembered roles was his part in an episode of Fawlty Towers. He was a lovely man. 🙏 ua-cam.com/video/uvzRs7iUbRo/v-deo.html
Cannot contain the utter bliss that this gave me, guess I'll be listening to this all night. Also "I'm a part time mortician, I cant shake death. I'm an aging physician, ain't got much healing left. Im a character actor, I feed myself a line... pretending I'm fine"?? Are you kiddinngg always hitting with beautiful lyrics
He has such a unique voice, one of the main reasons I listen to his music. The songs are also so beautiful and soft on the ears, and they have so much meaning and emotion behind them, it’s absolutely amazing
The pure utter joy I felt when I saw the notification nearly a week ago when this came out honestly made me feel more alive than I've been in years. Thank you Keaton, truly, you are a blessing to us all
We all Love you Keaton, and I am very sorry for your loss. Thank you with letting us see a little glimpse into your mind once again. Personally speaking, it helps me tremendously within my own life, as I hope it helps you writing and creating these songs/videos. Hope you are staying healthy.
This song and video has led me to be in a flood of tears. I know Keaton lost his dad sometime last year and this is such a lovely tribute to him, I lost my dad a few months ago and I somewhat feel i understand how he’s feeling. It’s such a powerful song and I will forever now associate it with my dad ☺️
One of the main reasons why I listen to Keaton Hensons music is, that his songs make me feel understood, wich is the best feeling I can possibly have. They are so beautiful and I am so thankful for his work.
Keaton was the only peace I could find a couple years ago while my world seemed to crumble around me. I thought I was losing it, and I had to listen to Keaton to be able to sleep. If his music wasn’t playing, my mind took over and I would lose it
Great song. Heard it for the first time tonight on The New MacGyver. Great voice and guitar combo. Cold Charleston night in December drinking some green tea.
Today was a terrible day, my father yelled at me and broke a few things of mine, I cried for 3 hours, but you saved my day by giving an opportunity to drift away with the sound of your beautiful music
The lyrics are so intense that somehow can't stop crying... Keaton, your voice and the way you tell stories heals & shakes my heart. Thanks, love you 💜

Hi, Tom!
You have a exquisite taste for music. My two mentors in this pandemic world. Thank you both. #HOPE

Hey. Love your channel
Why you sad? because they have a music video for it. BTW, Love your work :)
Lyrics
I'm an astronaut baby
I'll work in the night
I'm a certain kind of crazy
I'll live in my mind
I'm a deep sea diver
I'll find ways to breath
I'm deep undercover
I don't look like me
I'm paperthin 3x
Just break me in
I'm a part time mortician
I cannot shake death
And I'm a ageing physician
Ain't got much healing left
I'm a character actor
I feed myself a line
But it leaves me pretty good
At pretending I'm fine
I'm paperthin 3x
Just break me in
I'm a struggling comedian
I can't find the laughs
I'm a poor mathematician
I do things by halves
I'm a weekday dancer
Can't kick the movement from my shoes
I'm a heartless casino
I win when you lose
I'm paperthin 3x
Just break me in
*aging physician :)
Madde Asbreuk I think he says I do things by halves
@@kaylol44 thank you!
@@greeneyedbookworm870 ill put that in than hahah!
bless you
Young Keaton looks like the kid that wanders up to you while you're in the checkout line and just quietly stares into your soul for a bit until he gets called back by his mum.
Haha, true, I immediately thought about the line "Always had intense eyes" from "Alright" 😳
@@leyaax lol same!
This man is, and forever will be, my favorite artist
You’re back. My heart...
you’re back when my girlfriend broke up with me, thank you for staying by my side keaton
I hope you are doing better now.
As sad as this song is, it makes me feel in love. With life itself. Keaton's voice just does this thing where it destroys everything around for a moment, and all that's left is just his fragile voice and the story of the song. I love it.
i feel you…
I've been looking for a way to describe the way this man's work makes me feel for so long and you finally did it
I'm so happy right now I could cry
He's singing again 😢❤️❤️
Thank you Keaton, I missed hearing your voice.

I feel like I’ve waited my whole life...
Keaton Henson's music never disappoints. ♡
"i'm deep undercover, i don't look like me" - what he says reminds me of so much, and yet, he speaks so little
i've been waiting this almost every day over this years
I missed your voice so much

How can a song just take my anxiety away?
omg Janet! I love that you listen to keaton too 🤍 ur both two of my favourite artists
Beautiful. Surely this is written about his Dad who died late last year
@An na Keaton's Dad was a famous British actor
Indeed. His father was Nicky Henson, as featured in this video with a very young Keaton.
One of Nicky's best remembered roles was his part in an episode of Fawlty Towers. He was a lovely man. 🙏

MacGyver.. Beautiful song. Awesome tv show.
Somehow this makes me think of the past and the future. Words can't express how beautiful and meaningful those sounds are
Omg he's back
i knew there was a reason for why i couldn't sleep, i can now rest peacefully
Izzy maybe
My heart, my year has been made x We love you Keaton
He has such a unique voice, one of the main reasons I listen to his music. The songs are also so beautiful and soft on the ears, and they have so much meaning and emotion behind them, it’s absolutely amazing
A balm to our sore souls
It itches in parts and numbs others but eventually it always heals
Who came here after watching MacGyver? Anyways, what a beautiful song! 😍
Am I dreaming!? Thank god for you keaton. You’re back!
How twenty two persons can not like this song ? I'm like ??? It's so sweet and pure and beautiful ?? I'm shook.
The lyrics, the melody, the emotion, his voice ❤️ **puts song on repeat**

I'm deep under cover
I don't look like me.
🛸👽🧜♀️

UA-cam HAS BEEN FAILING ME! I DIDN’T GET A NOTIFICATION I HAD TO FIND IT WHILE LISTENED TO HIS OTHER STUFF I’M SO LATE!
The Lethargies were great, but this is what I was waiting for.
This song and video has led me to be in a flood of tears. I know Keaton lost his dad sometime last year and this is such a lovely tribute to him, I lost my dad a few months ago and I somewhat feel i understand how he’s feeling. It’s such a powerful song and I will forever now associate it with my dad ☺️
Great💓
Very few people can tug my heartstring the way Keaton does. Thank you for yet another beautiful gem.
This is wonderful, thank you
Thank you so much Keaton, a great song. Stay healthy ✌️
Notification things, can’t wait to loop this for the next couple of days
Can’t find right words to express how glad I am we exist at the same time❤️your music is everything my heart needs
All this time I had no idea I was a struggling comedian. In retrospect it seems so clear
............
One of the main reasons why I listen to Keaton Hensons music is, that his songs make me feel understood, wich is the best feeling I can possibly have. They are so beautiful and I am so thankful for his work.
all the way from Nigeria......yet another story from Keaton....blessings!!!
I missed your voice so much
Thank you for this 😍
This man has been thinking
It’s such an amazing and wholesome feeling to know that I have a new song to play on repeat and cry to. He really did THAT
King is back
Bruh, the lyrics are...gosh darn beautiful. This is poetry. Take two lines and you get a story in a story. Love that.
I adore this song so much along with La Naissance, a shame the latter is no longer available on spotify :(
Keaton was the only peace I could find a couple years ago while my world seemed to crumble around me. I thought I was losing it, and I had to listen to Keaton to be able to sleep. If his music wasn’t playing, my mind took over and I would lose it
Love U.

Oh my god, new Keaton Henson is what I needed.
I missed you so much
I’ll never forget you at the Masonic Lodge (Hollywood, Ca).
Mesmerizing presence and performance.
fucking magical
So there are another chapters after the Epilogue. Thank God!
A sequel
thank you keaton
Wait what.
THATS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE.
Favorite artist. Favorite music. Ever.
keaton, something about your music gives me goosebumps. thank you so much, i hope you're doing well.
Can I like this more than once?
So brilliant!
This song made my day, my week, my whole year. It is amazing, a masterpiece as always. Thank you for sharing your art with us.
Thank you!!!
i don't even understand how someone can be this good at capturing and evoking emotion
I Love you❤😢
Keaton🖤
I am so glad to hear from you again ♡ Thank you.
HOLY SHIT I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY YOU'RE BACK WITH THIS MATERIAL
I'm so grateful that you've unveiled your music and your heart once more. :)
Great song. Heard it for the first time tonight on The New MacGyver. Great voice and guitar combo. Cold Charleston night in December drinking some green tea.
Sorry about your loss Keaton. This was beautiful ❤️
I can't explain how much I missed your voice
How does Keaton write songs, which were inside of me, but I didn't know they were in there?
Today was a terrible day, my father yelled at me and broke a few things of mine, I cried for 3 hours, but you saved my day by giving an opportunity to drift away with the sound of your beautiful music
Do you want to talk?
@@_the_ oh man I'd LOVE to if only I'd knew English good enough to express myself freely ._.
¿Puedo empezar a llorar ahora? 🥺
Gracias por esto ❤
Toco, Keaton te hace feliz y triste al mismo
Beauty of sadness ❤️ I am paperthin...
That’s very good to hear you voice again! Thank you! Lots of love !
Todas tus canciones me hacen recordar mi niñez yo no se porque :')
The lyrics are so intense that somehow can't stop crying...
Keaton, your voice and the way you tell stories heals & shakes my heart. Thanks, love you 💜
