Lyrics:
It ain’t alright the hardness of my head
Now close your eyes and spin around
Say hard times you could find that it ain’t the way that you want
But it’s still alright
Late at night do you lay around wondering
Counting all the lines it ain’t so funny now
Times are hard you get this far but it ain’t the way that you want
I’ll be damned if this old man don’t start to counting his losses
But it’s still alright
They say you learn a lot out there, how to scorch and burn
Gonna have to bury your friends and then you’ll find it get worse
Standing out on the ledge with no way to get down
Start praying for wings to grow
Baby just let go
It ain’t alright you keep spinning out ahead
It was cold outside when I hit the ground
Said I could sleep here, forget all the fear
It will take time to grow
Maybe I don’t know
Hey tonight if you think about it
Remembering all the times that you pointed out
Say the glass is clear, but all this fear starts a leaving a mark
Your idle hands are all that stands from your time in the dark
But it’s still alright

What a Healing song. I lost my 24 year old daughter last year to Covid-19. My heart is forever broken but this song..spoke to me..in a good way. Thank you Nathaniel..❤️
Tunefreakdonna- 💔 ⏳
Wishing healing vibes @ you!
Praying for you and your daughter 💕
I can't even begin to imagine. Everyone's thoughts are with you. I hope you heal🌹and find some way to move forward.
This comment brought tears to my eyes... sending ❤️ your way
💛🙏🏼💛
Probably had her lungs blown out cause of the machines not covid.
I’m a 43 year old man. My wife left me 3 years ago. I wish she would talk to me. I’d like her to hear this song. It explains more than I ever could. Now I’m crying
@@drsrsv8884 because I love her and wanted to spend my life with her
Hi 👋
@@EvelynLogan-od7zc hi!

Hey, you. Whoever is reading this, this is your sign. Everything is going to be okay. You did not come this far to give up. I believe in you ❤
The world needs more of this.
The world is this, people and things hide this.
Thank u so much

This song has helped me through a really hard time recently as my wife Tracey passed away in March, but the reason it's so special is the last thing she ever bought me was your latest album for my Birthday (Secret Birthday present ) and we had just found out she had Cancer so it was a pretty hard time. This song instantly spoke to me as I could see the struggles to come, my wife then bought my son two tickets to your postponed Glasgow gig in April for his birthday obviously with me in mind as he is under 18. She passed on around a fortnight after this on the 23rd march after taking a bad reaction to chemotherapy and spent her last few days in a Hospice. Without this wee song I don't think I would have gotten through seeing her suffer and struggle so much. So I would just like to say thank you, you have really touched my soul.
I'm so sorry for your pain my friend. May music help you grieve and heal...
Stay strong friend..
Oh I’m so sorry
And it still going to be alright 🙏
Sorry for her passing. May music always help that pain! Keep that head high friend!
Huge huge music guy , sometimes every once in a while a song just smacks me in my face , speaks to me , makes me happy and sad all at the same time . This is one of those songs
He is pretty huge. But weight can be a struggle for some people, caused by eating habits, genetics, and frequency of exercise. But referring to a musician as a huge music guy may be considered rude.
Oh you're saying you're a huge FAN of music???
Oh. Cool.
Same, song stopped me in my tracks ❤️🎶
Thank you Lord for confirming there are others like me. Recognize that music is the only universal language...can appreciate the many layers in a song, the power of its message. How it was intended and the infinite ways it can be interpreted depending on the listener and it evolved even.
Music exists to link us
Songs are memories.
Music is the universal language
Songs connect our stories
...anyway...sheesh that was long and dumb. I just love that you heard the first line in the song and your honest reaction. It's deep. 🤙🏼♥️
Discovered this song a few weeks ago and it really hit home for me but didn’t know why...turns out my Dad was diagnosed with cancer four days later, 9 days later he passed way to soon. Can’t say how many hundreds of times I’ve listened to it since I got the call. Such an amazing song. Thank you! ❤️
so sorry for your loss 💔 music is healing
fuck cancer, its the worst way to go out
My condolences. 🙏🏽
Condolences for your loss
Sorry for your loss. First time I heard it was the day my wonderful neighbor Eddie died. Oct 30th stupid covid/pneumonia. Some good the j4b did. I will never look across the street from my front porch and see him sitting on his porch ever again...
"Gonna have to bury your friends and then you find it gets worse", hit me like a hammer.
Way too many gone. There's too many depending on me to not collapse from the weight. Here's to hoping that music can be a snall "vent" for others as it is for me.
Just lost BFF of 45 yrs not too long ago. Hurt doesn’t stop
Yeah. To the other commenters, I'm so sorry for your losses. Facing the void, acknowledging the existential truth. It's hard to do, but it sheds light on everything else. Once we stop pretending that everyone we love, and we, are going to be available forever, we start living.
Lost alot of brothers in war, their Spirits are still with all of us. Remember that folks.
Bury friends and family it puts a hole in your he art
L
Beautifull song. Been on that ledge, without wings, didn't let go. And it's still allright. Life's a gift, hold on to it. Don't let go.
Damn right brother! Gotta hold on. Sometimes tightly, but just gotta. World is always best with you in it for sure.
But sometimes you do just have to let go. (There is more to life than death.) Some things require surrender.
Yes! This! Keep pushing
Letting go doesn't necessarily have to be negative. It can be giving in and admitting you can't continue alone and you need help getting to a better place.
😪
This song came on the radio at 330 am when I was traveling. I dont think there is a more reflective time for a song like this to hit you hard then on a old long road in the middle of nowhere .
Pondering mode- ON.
Been there too today
I forgot where I was but I just got in my car and this was playing I didn’t hear much but the guitar spoke to me and I knew I found something so I shazamed it and listened to it later. Now I relate this song to coming home from a long 12 hr shift and feeling like my soul left elsewhere and all that remains is a hollow shell.
This song absolutely touched my soul. My father passed away 2.5 years ago, but in my heart it might as well have been 2.5 minutes ago. Now, my sister is battling an incurable cancer. She could still have 2.5 years, but in my heart it feels like it may as well be 2.5 minutes.
But as this old man sits here counting my losses, I know it ain't the way I want it, but it's still alright.
Thank you, and God bless.
♥️
💛🤘🏻
This brought a tear to my eye brother, I don't know you, but I send you love in your time of need. Be strong
Praying for your strength. What a brave soul to write such strong words openly. ✌🏽💙
I lost my father 2.5yrs ago also. Both my parents have passed. Life gets rough, remember the good times. That's all that keeps me going. God bless you and your family
Every time I hear someone say that there's no good music being made today, I tell them to check out Nathaniel Rateliff.
Exactly.
Even though I feel like there's more trash than there's ever been, it's not like Nathaniel and his Night Sweats don't exist 😄 or Vulfpeck, the Monophonics, Marcus King, Emily King (not related), Jacob Collier, Lianne La Havas, Ray Lamontagne, Bon Iver, ...
HELL YEAH
me too :)
That’s a thing people who don’t search say. I know I’ve come across great artist and bands simply clicking on random videos. Nathaniel Rateliff is a talented musician. An interesting suggestion is to look up Poets of the fall, the white buffalo, Sean James, Delain or Billy Raffoul.
Where the hell are the Night Sweats?!!!
"standing out on the ledge / with no way to get down / you start praying for wings to grow / baby just let go" ... beautiful stuff
💞
This song is haunting me. Absolutely breathtaking.
Agreed ❤️
At what age do you start having to count your loses? I'm the eternal optimist. It's hard for me to accept something ain't gonna be. But it may be time. I live this song btw.
Love
Discovered this song about 8 months ago, my uncle committed suicide then a month later a separation from my wife of 16 years. Started all over again from scratch. Times are hard and they aren’t the way that I wanted, but it’s still alright
I'm a 29 year old tough guy with battle scars from head to toe and i cry when i listen to this. It hits me so deeply in a way no other musician can. I appreciate this.
Damn right. Me too bud. Jason Isbell writes to my soul as well. Check out "dress blues"
Comforting to know I'm not alone in this.. Please be well.
🤍
This played randomly as my ma passed away from cancer yesterday. Been listenin ever since...thank you
Listen to his momma song
My mom passed away 5 years ago. Nathaniel can play some good tunes
Sorry about your loss man I cannot imagine what you must be going through, just remember your mom loves you and she'd want you to live a good life man. Remember her for all the good she did.
Kevin Porter I’m sorry to hear about your mother. I lost my mother to cancer as well 9yrs ago on Mother’s Day. They are no longer suffering.Hang in there.
Very sorry to hear that. Hope that you're doing ok!! It's amazing what music can do to heal the soul and make very sad times somewhat bearable.
Every so often a song comes out that hits me like a punch in the face. This is one of those songs. WOW!!!!
No this is one of those songs that hits you like a caress of the face.
I dislike being punched in the face, but I enjoy this song.
This song hurts a little. A swift kick in the face to squeeze out a tear from your eye, for all the mistakes you've made, and all the people you hurt, without realizing it, because you just weren't wise enough to understand in your youth...
It does hurt doesn't it?
Youth is wasted on the young.
Very true words my friend
Tis rare to come across a perfect song.
well said
This song does not have nearly enough recognition. I've just about over played it, just a few thousand more listens to go.
Davi F: same here!
I hear ya
Even when I'm not listening, it's in my head. Such a beautiful song
Same here!!! I listen to it on the way to work on the way home etc love it !!!
One of the most gorgeous and uplifting songs I've ever heard, this man is a poet, I cry hard tears every time I hear it, just beautiful and cathartic for us who are hurting
34 days clean today and this song speaks so loudly to the journey to get here. The road ahead seems so impossibly long drought with land mines that I will lay for myself and the road behind is paved with regent and embarrassment. It ain’t alight…but I’m hoping I can make some of it right. “All this fear starts leaving a mark. Idle hands are all that stands from your time in the dark. But it’s still alright.”
A little over two years clean. It is a long journey but it is worth it in the end. Proud of the trip and more proud of the destination.
23 days now....
@@afumi4486 All the best to you on your journey - it will be worth it ,you'll get there !
@@rickdixon9933 34 now and still going strong 💪
@Helen Barber Same...and feeling great!
First time I heard this song, the first sentence hit my soul like a brick. I started tearing up immediately. This is what good music is all about
I agree Rock - this song has made a grown tough old man have tears. This is one of my all time favorite songs
Same something about it gave me chills 🤍
I heard this for the first time yesterday on CBC in Ontario Canada...driving through a massive snowstorm, gripping the wheel and then this came on and I turned the radio up, relaxed and fell in love. Can not wait for this album to be released. Nathaniel has such a soothing voice.
I instantly heard Gordon Lightfoot and I am SO glad I heard this yesterday.
Kool!
Perfect analogy/comparison to Gordon LIghtfoot.
This song is a masterpiece. So much emotion!!! The way Nathaniel uses his voice in this is simply amazing, and the lyrics are so, so powerful. It hit me hard the first time I heard it, and it still does every time I hear it. This is art!!
What even did we do to deserve Nathaniel Rateliff? I’m in love with his voice. March 5th in Milwaukee can’t come soon enough ❤️❤️❤️
Well, you are lucky! Hope he whill come to holland soon😀
OMG, I told my guitarist's wife who introduced me to Nathaniel two years ago that "I can't imagine living my life without hearing this music." And, that echos what you have said!
Seen him twice, one at Red Rocks. Caitlin your in for treat.
The 6th in Chi Town for me!
I wish you a merry experience!
WeShallNotBeMoved thanks - and you as well!! 😊
Oh my love, this moved me so much. I am typing through tears. So beautifully done. The lyrics " standing on the ledge with no way to get down.......want to grow wings.....baby just let go" will forever be stamped on my heart.
It really is lyrical master work.
@@banchara yes it really is 😊
You’ll probably never see this but it makes me happy that you are proud of yourself, Nathaniel. You’re a strong man who puts it all into songs. It would be tough doing that. We see how much these lyrics mean to you in your eyes and voice. Be proud. Keep on being you, Nathaniel. Such a talented guy. Wow.
This beautiful talented man can do no wrong. All his solo stuff and the Night Sweats (who are easily one of the best live bands on the planet in my opinion) is real soul music of the highest order!
Honest, heart on your sleeve & life affirming gorgeousness.
Craig Palmer - My nephew, Luke, plays in the band!
Craig Palmer my favorite band. Best I have ever seen live, by far. ❤️
Best band on a planet has Mark Knopfler.
Saw them at the Kettlehouse in Montana... best concert I’ve seen.... LIVE.... amazing, audience would not let them leave.
Just today I kept thinking to myself "he can do no wrong"... solo or with the Night Sweats. He is an amazing artist that puts out amazing music (not just a great song or two) and that is the reason I buy his & the Night Sweats albums so he can continue writing and making music and make a living at it!
Came here from watching his performance on Jimmy Fallon. Such a good song. We needed this right now. God bless America
Same
Perfectly stated
I just discovered this, I’m a disabled combat vet with ptsd and depression, heavily medicated at times, it’s hard sometimes, like I failed and the words of this song help me so much with acceptance of the past and how things don’t go as we hoped and sometimes the people we wish were still with us, whether we lose them to war or lose a marriage because of how it changes us and the connection with family...so much loss to be counted can be overwhelming but I listen to this and find myself feeling emotions, while just staring out at the wood line, that I couldn’t express at the time. This song gives my heart an outlet to hurt without feeling like life has been as good as it will ever get....
but it’s still alright, thank you for this song
Thank YOU!
Thank you! And stay strong Robert!
I have lost but I only know I will lose more. Reading these comments makes me feel less alone getting through life. Thank you to all who have loved and lost...sharing your story
love you sister
Walking that tunnel of light and seeing our Father... And it's still alright. To everybody that reads this and doesn't see the next day. I love you brother and sister. I never really truly learned how to appreciate another human. One second we're here in the next second we're not. Don't go to bed with hate in your heart. Forgive and let go just like we will do with our bodies.
Thanks bro.✊️🥲
This is a Folgers-in-your-cup-while-you're-staring-out-from-your-back-porch-in-the-morning kind of song. I love it
I think 🤔 you’ve got their next commercial...
As I enjoy my coffee & am getting ready to start my day I couldn't agree more.
...in autumn
Nah, this is a -jim beam-in-your-glass-just-got-out-of-jail-again-staring-down-at-the-ground-wondering-if-anythings-every-going-change-and-you-need-some-inspiration-to-get-through-the-day-alive type of song.
@@gwsmith76 find the inspiration in freedom. Have faith in new beginnings. There's a reason/purpose for all of us. I know you're included;)
My wife of 28 years passed from cancer 6/24/21 played this song every day and today my mother died from cancer 8/9/21 its so true and means so much!!has helped every day..Thank you for what talent you share from the heart!!!!!
So sorry. That's my ex wife's birthday. Carry on my brother
Sorry for your loss
I lost my wife of 40 years April 1 to Covid. And this song is such an attachment.
💛🙏🏼💛
Am so sorry to hear that... 🙌 But, it's still alright 🙏
Sending you all the Love in my heart dear Brother. Her Love will keep you going through until you reach the lighter side my friend. Peace for a moment in your day, Al.
Candescence, Candice
The world needs this song right now man.
That's a good way to put it ✌👍
We’ve made it to the end of this terrible year. We’ve lost so many, been thru so much, we’re still here, and It’s still alright.
Well put, Jessica. Still coming out of the corner fighting.
Checking in three years later... Is it still alright?
Nathaniel is a poet. This song is so right on for what is going on in my life and hits my soul like a ton of bricks, just like the rest of his music. So talented and under-rated for sure!
this song is great for breaking up that stuck emotion, can't listen to it when I drive though, got to be able to see the road.
Beautifully said Alma.
Lol true
I took care of my dad for 2 and a half years. Even though he was fighting cancer we bonded, when everyone walked away I stayed, he passed away this year January 20th a month exactly after his 63rd birthday, I’ll always love and look up to that man and id do anything to tell him thank you for helping me see and learn things. What I would give just to hear his stories and hear his advice again
Recently my life has been forever changed by a relationship ending, Every time I hear this song I literally break down...but it doesn't stop me from listening...Thank you Nathaniel for beautiful lyrics
@@drsrsv8884
Yes...I've never felt so ugly as I did at that moment
Start praying for wings to grow.. 💙
David
What a dose of reality. Buried my wife of 27 years after she lost a battle with Cancer. 50 was too young, she deserved longer. This was all after I left her, 3 years before the cancer, for another woman. I should have been there for her. Now I have to live with all my bad decisions. I have to do better. I have to be a better man. What a song 🫡
How many super talented original artists are out there chugging away? This is genius and it took a while to get to us, didn't it? This is R&R Hall of Fame stuff. How many years did they struggle in anonimity? Why am I crying? Oh yeah, I'm drunk.
I truly fell in Love with this tune without knowing anything about Nathaniel Rateliff a couple of years ago! This tune still haunts me in a such a positive way! It cured my Blues and took away the pains that I was living with.Times are hard for this old Man "But It's Still Alright" Moving ever so continually from dark to the light! Growing Wings with Help from Above!
Hi 👋
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. He's good at making those.
Just another example of why he's such a special talent... phenomenal song, and I'm really looking forward to the new album. That'll be my Valentine's Day plan
Prayers for everyone who hasn't found this song yet
This is a ridiculously good song, knocked it out the park. I'm hearing a lot of John Prine like tones on some of the lyrics. Genius song.
Heartache medicine. I feel this bittersweet, perfect song through the depths of my soul.
Something spiritual about this song that words fail to capture
I just wanted you to know that this album has been a pleasure to listen to. Difficult times need music with depth. Thanks Mr. Rateliff
Il est artiste qui adapte sa mélancolie en douceur, ou ses notes nous enveloppe d'une beauté jusque-là cachée..
It ain't alright, the hardness of my head
Now, close your eyes and spin around
Say, hard times you could find, it
Ain't the way that you want
But it's still alright
Late at night, do you lay around wondering?
Counting all the lines, ain't so funny now
Say, times are hard, you get this far, but it
Ain't the way that you want
I'll be damned if this old man don't
Start to count on his losses
But it's still alright
They say you learn a lot out there
How to scorch and burn
Only have to bury your friends
Then you'll find it gets worse
Standing out on the ledge
With no way to get down
You start praying for wings to grow
Oh, baby, just let go
I ain't alright, you keep spinning out ahead
It was cold outside when I hit the ground
Said, I could sleep here, forget all the fear
It will take time to grow
Maybe I don't know
Hey, tonight if you think about it
Remembering all the times that you pointed out
Say, the glass is clear but all this fear
Starts a-leaving a mark
Your idle hands are all that stands
From your time in the dark
But it's still alright
Thank you for posting the lyrics.
Thank you 💫
I'm convinced it can't be overplayed
This song was played on the soundtrack for my uncle's funeral and I immediately felt his love of the song when the first chords played.... Thank you for these beautiful words and melody. It's now one of my favorite songs and a way to always remember...
I'm not crying, you're crying!
This song just weighs heavily on my heart.
If you can carry the weight of living honest, you'll float when it's your time...
Amen
Funny how you can hear influences in a song, and still feel like it's 100% the artist you are listening to at that moment. What a beautiful voice.
I learned this on acoustic guitar recently to play at a memorial for a dear friend that passed into the by and by. I had another Friend accompany me on acoustic and we had our fiddle player join us. It was so hard to play and sing this without crying. I'd be lying if I said we played it perfectly. There were some straight up sobs. But what a beautiful song. The words, the music, the FEELING...It was an incredible tribute and I am thankful for this tune. It really helps ease the pain of that loss. Love you Monk. See you on the other side of the Blue Ridge Sky!
This is one of the few songs where both the music and lyrics can be painfully and wonderfully relatable. Brought to mind several loved ones who passed - genius!
Nathaniel, You never cease to amaze me, You have been one of my favorites since my
first discovery of you singing SOB. I really LOVE YOU. Thank you for being you.
Bury your friends; then it gets worse; standing out on a ledge with no way to get down; start praying for wings......My Mom died last year and my Dad is not in great shape. I do feel like I'm out on a ledge with no way to get down. I'm always praying to get through it. I know the other shoe (my Dad) is going to drop sooner than later and this song justgets me every single time. It's so beautiful
Hang in there. There’s always hope somewhere out in the darkness. I promise it’s there. Sending you all of my best thoughts.
A love ones worst nightmare. Losing a love one and having to bury them. A man lost his son and couldn’t bare the thought of living without him. He was suffering and couldn’t believe his son was gone. He cried and cried every day and night, missing his son, wishing things were different.
He couldn’t sleep and hadn’t slept in a long time. One night an old man came to him in a dream and told him “Enough!! That’s enough crying!!” The dad told him “I can not stop, I am never going to see him again!” The old man said “Do you want to see him again?” The dad says “yes of course” the old man takes him to the gates of heaven where he sees many little beautiful children, so happy and innocent, Carrying lit candles into the gates of heaven, smiling and laughing and just so beautiful. The dad asks “where is my son? Who are these kids?” The old man said “these are the children that are called home early, They are innocent and loved and they go right through to heaven, so happy” the dad says “and my son? Where is he? Why isn’t he with these children?” The old man said “come this way” and guided him to the side of heavens gate. A small boy with a beautiful smile was standing there watching all the children enter Heaven. He was standing there with a candle that was not lit. His dad grabbed him and hugged him, and the boy kissed his dads cheeks and told him he missed him. The dad said “why isn’t your candle lit like the other kids? Why are you waiting here at the gates?”
The boy said “I keep lighting it Daddy, but your tears put it out. I see you are so sad and I am tied to that feeling so I wait here until you’re ok” the Dad burst out crying for the last time, he told his son, “light your candle and go, I will be ok, and I know you will be too” 🥺
- Don't cry too long for that loved one you lost, whether son, daughter, husband, mother or father!! Let them rest in peace, don't torment your life, because they won't come back, have faith that you will be together again, and that Creator makes us a beautiful home with all our loved ones when we leave this world.
Can't help but think of the current situation in the world when I listen to this. Stay safe everyone.
Idle hands are all that stand from our time in the dark
It really is quite a reminder to appreciate what we have. You be safe, too.
It will pass soon but this song brings limitless joy
You too 🙌 ❤️
All my Love to you J Yo for your “uniting” comments. Candescence be with you Always. Candice
When I first heard of Nathaniel the song was, “summers end” keep in mind I’m a huge hip hop head I barley ever go into these genres and if I do I mostly skip, but when I heard that guitar strumming and then he started to sing I just had to listen, he’s one of those artist that no matter why genre you prefer when he comes on you just have to listen, but it speaks from the heart, now I listen to him on a daily basis, thank you for all the amazing memories
What an absolutely beautiful tune. It brings me to tears. Like it hits the soul. Thank you nathanial for sharing your art.
Love. Love. Love.
Proud to say our home towns are only an hour apart. Just heard this guy 10 mins ago, this song, after my wife and I split not an hour before it came on. I'm still lost. I miss my kids already. I'm not alright, but idk. They'll hold me together.
I heard this song on the radio a few days ago for the first time and can't stop listening to it. What a beautiful song that we all can relate to. The heartache and pain we have to endure in life. It's not easy!
Stephan
I heard this for the first time while i was on the operating table for a heart procedure. Every time I hear it it makes me reflect how I got a second chance. Live your life people. You never know how much time you have.
I just started going to Alanon meetings. This song nails the emotion of loving an addict perfectly. My hard head has all but destroyed my family even when the glass was clear.
Hope you're doing well. I've just sent this to someone I love very much but can't be around till he gets sober. I miss what we had very much and don't know if it'll ever be the same. But it's still alright.
I guess I don't see the 'just let go' thing as suicide, but as an encouragement to let go and trust that the landing will either be soft or you will gain resilience from breaking -- both good things; and you let go and trust whatever you have faith in to catch you because it's alright. You aren't going to lose by letting go of whatever is holding you cowering on the ledge.
I’ve never felt so connected to an artist that I never wanted to meet or hear and yet feel so moved.
Nothing moves my soul the way this man does. Still Trying struck a chord and i've been stuck on his songs ever since.
Nathaniel Rateliff just keeps getting better and better. This is my newest favorite song by him.
As I turned 50, I cant help but look back some. Think about those I have known and loved, those that are no longer in my life either by my choice, their choice, of life's choice. The regrets I have, things I did - things I didnt do. Yet this is the perfect song for letting me know - its still alright. Somehow Nathaniel Rateliff produced a song that this just perfect for where I am this very day. Thank you sir.
This is the type of song I imagine we will listen too in a year or two and fondly remember America and how beautiful it was before all was lost.
Scott
This brings me peace in difficult times and helps me to see its still alright, no matter how low I feel to carry on being a dad alone for the sake of my sons.
Underrated comment were the minds of people this is pin point accuracy on the waves of emotions you feel when listening to this beautifully put masterpiece keep on keeping on strong thru it all bro ..yours truly 🙌🏾💪
This song is a miracle in 2020. The torch is still alive.
We have to help carry it.
Pure genius!!! He speaks for Every Man.
I wish him a very long life- we need his observation, insight and wisdom.
This whole collection of songs ..all..have deep lyrics...hes overlooked...in my opinion...as a artist...I would love to tell him that !
Nathaniel, thank you for what you do and what you bring to the rest of us. Last year, I traveled 6 hours to volunteer at a BBQ fundraiser in Tampa, Florida. I'd never heard of the organization or their cause, but I gladly jumped at the chance because you and your band were going to be there. I'm not typically a fanboy of anyone but when I called your name as you guys were headed from the bus to the stage and you stopped and said hello, it was awesome.
Seen these guys 2 years ago in Vancouver,BC. Restored my faith in music again, amazing stuff.
NR - you and your crew helped heal old wounds in Sun Valley.
It was years ago now, it wasn't easy to pull off but you did.
I hope the good luck coins found you backstage.
I send my deepest thanks, compassion and gratitude.
You all showed up...Mom and I danced. I'm preparing to transit to the 5th, any day now.
Remember the Neurolux in BOI, remember that was one for the Books.
Life has limitations and nothing lasts forever, everything changes, and it's still alright.
Blessings my friends.
Thank you so much!

I spent 2000.00 to see you play in Atlanta. You were rained out. My heart and soul was broken. This song says it all. It'll still be alright. I can still listen to your Beautiful voice and Awesome band. I Love everything about you Nathaniel! The way you sing, dance, and play the sweetest music I have EVER heard. Thank you for being the One and Only Nathaniel Rateliff! 💘
I love how he's developed with nightsweats but this is what I prefer. Raw emotion lyrics and a simple acoustic set that sends you chills
H's doing a concert by himself soon in Utrecht (NL) and I'm going. Looking really forward to it!
@@peterbrouwers3960 I'm in Utrecht next week for two door cinema club ahah
@@SeanConway99 have fun in Utrecht. Great city, very nice
I just stumbled upon Nathaniel's music today.
....late to the party, I know, always.
Anyhow....
He is so in tune with the natural, true, soul of music.
Today, this song just changed my life.
Welcome at the party, never to late! Been listening for 2 years to this music and it's awesome. He's doing a concert soon in Utrecht (NL) and i got a ticket, yeeeeh!
its okay if youre late...at least youre here now :)
It's ok. People will stumble upon his music for years to come. It works on you. That's what matters.
Perhaps his best song yet. Every live, solo vid I’ve seen you feel he’s fighting back the tears.
I just saw him at the Montreal Jazz Fest and the band was incredible, it was raining steadily but he still had a few thousand in the streets listening to him and singing along despite the rain. Wonderful experience!
Stumbled upon this video at the right time. Like when I found ‘Hey Mama”, once again a Nathaniel Rateliff song helps me get through a loss.
Sorry for your loss, hope your heart feels better soon.
Sorry for your loss, try to remember the good.
A vocal and musical legend in my mind...thank you 😁
Heard this playing in the movie Sweet Girl and had to Shazam.. what a good song!
Nick
Love this poem

With this video, it’s official, I’m obsessed. Listened to the new record for 9 hours straight today. Thank you for this amazing piece of incredibly tender art.❤️🙏🏼
been hearing his music this past year or so...but this one really hit home today. Buried my 96-yr old father in law and made me wonder about what did he think about at night.
Odd how sometimes the internet actually connects people. (Imo it usually destroys connectivity) I'm sorry for your loss. Lately my mom has been making me take a hard look at her mortality. I can't imagine a world without my mom. It scares me.
The God above rarely takes away the pain and loss we all inevitably have to endure in our lives. What he does do, is give us beautiful art like this to shepherd us through.
Somehow, even though I have never met this man, he has described the contours of my heart with his words. I can't get this song out of my head. It haunts me in the most beautiful way.
This song just does something to me. I can't listen to it enough...thank you💜
I've listened to this song about 100 times already.
Today alone!!!
Countless times... I love everything he does ❤️
Me too. It's like a spalm..
Had to put my 14 year old pup down two days ago. He's been with me for nearly 12 and he was the best buddy I ever had. This song gets me perfectly....
Thanks Nathaniel Rateliff.😊
