when i still lived at home i would put sticky notes on my mom’s bathroom mirror asking her if she could wake me up earlier than usual, or if she could do my hair that morning or just to wish her a good day at work. when i left for college i hid sticky notes around the house for her to find when she got home from dropping me off, telling her how much i’ll miss her. she’s kept all of them, at least 200+ sticky notes from me, some of which aren’t important at all. when i asked her about it, she said they’re all important because they’re from me. i love her so much. being at a college 6 hours away really puts in perspective how much i need her in my life, cherish your mom while you can y’all!!!
I like how everyone is volunteering to be the parents of people with absent moms, but not for absent grandmothers. So to all y’all with mean/no grandmas, I’m your grandma now.
I miss my mom in a strange way. I’m not lonely without her, she’s practically yelling at me every second of the day. Crushing my dreams left and right just like what will happen to my skull if I start boxing, from what she tells me. I miss the person she used to be. The nice, energetic, mom who would wake me up every morning my hugging me. The mom who loved my dad. The mom who didn’t need to ask for money. I miss my mom, not the lady that yells at me every day to do stuff for her that she could easily do herself. I miss my mom. My old mom.
As a child of a mother who left 5 years ago, this legitimately made me cry. Thank you for making this, sincerely. ♥️ Edit: Thank you all so much for the encouraging words and telling your stories. Thank you for making me feel not alone. Well get through this guys, we just have to keep trucking. ❤️
Even though my mom is here she isnt. . She hasnt been mentally here for a long time and i miss her. I cant remember when she was mentally here but its like that feeling you get when your around them. Its all warm but they act so cold.
pizza warship my mom was never emotionally stable enough to take care of me and constantly would just lie and check out. I always knew that she was kind of just too fragile for this world, she could never cope with our needs or confronting that she was neglecting us. I relate so hard to your comment
Ever since my mother and father got divorced, she hasn't been the same. She's been to a mental health hospital but she chose to not get diagnosed. I miss how she used to be. I sure as hell don't like her talking and cussing to herself about stuff. I know it's not her fault though..
I miss my "old" mum. Who would not get frustrated at everything I do. Not call me bad things at everything I do. Who didn't yell at me and who loved me. To whom I could share all my secrets. With whom I could spend time alone. Who would let me lay my head on her shoulder. Who would not say 'cry more' when I would cry. Who loved to be with me. With Whom _I_ loved to be. Now, nostalgia is killing me, so, please, please Come Back. I miss you.
I feel ya on this one. Happened so suddenly, like the change came outta nowhere. And no matter how hard you try to neglect the yelling and try to not let it get to you it still hurts. Especially since well I was raised by a single mom and I never liked or bonded with my dad until about a year or two ago since he was never around. And to see the person who you loved the most, trusted the most just change so suddenly and yell and get frustrated at every little mistake you make and it feels like you can’t be human anymore. This all happened about a week or two ago. I’m just tired in general. Like tired physically, emotionally and mentally. Physically cause I barely sleep and my diet isn’t the best, I don’t really work out anymore either. Mentally because of all the school stress and emotionally because I get yelled at all the time and well I fell out of love with myself and so I tend to self deprecate a lot. I know others have it worse but yeah guess I needed a rant 😅 Hope you have a beautiful day! -a stranger trying to fix himself
Hey, this is EXACTLY how i feel, my mom was so caring and loving before her surgery. After her surgery she changed, she cheated many times on my dad and betrayed our family. She doesnt live with us anymore. I honestly hate her. She has hit my siblings and cussed up all out shes the worst fucking mom ever
i miss my mom so much. haven’t seen her in one and half years. they kicked me out after i came out and refuse to talk to me. even though i’m angry they did this, i’m more sad than mad because i just miss my mom. i miss knowing she had my back. i miss her still loving me.
that's awful. I can't make it any better with a comment but I'm sending you so much virtual love through this screen. you're unbelievably strong to be able to get through that but I wish you never did. xx
I'm so sorry. That's awful. You deserve love and kindness and acceptance. I hope they come around. Take care and stay safe! You're not alone. Sending lots of love.
I'm currently working through a lot of trauma as newly unrepressed memories come up about my bio mother. I think I'm about to enter a legal battle with her, so this song stings. But I dedicate it to my adoptive mother, aka my grandmother. I know she won't see this but I love you grandma
I miss my mom. She was my best friend, she passed 2 years ago on Christmas Eve, worst Christmas ever. Also I'm only 15 and she passed in her sleep. Mom, I hope your doing well in heaven.
This made me legit cry. My mom has so many health issues, including cancer, and this reminded me about how much I miss when I was able to be around her a lot. Very beautiful song. I love it
AAA I love how all the lyrics are on little sticky notes I just adore that ;w; also can youtube calm down,,,3 views, 43 comments, and none of them are showing up.
"Months before she died, Mom and I went on a mother-daughter day to the city to see if it could improve our relationship. Over lunch, she told me she was always, in her mind, looking for the mother who abandoned her. I wanted to tell her: Yeah, me too." -I'll Give You The Sun by Jandy Nelson. Though not exactly well, my mom is alive. But still, that quote hit me just as hard as this whole song did.
My mom is in the next room and it's 3:02 a.m. I miss her even though she's just sleeping. She has a genetic condition that might cause cancer if left untreated, she had a surgery that changed her way of living and lowered her self esteem. I would buy the world if that made her realise she's beautiful and perfect. I couldn't live without her, and I wouldn't want to either. After losing my dad I miss my mom even when she just leaves the room. When you lose someone, you look back on everything with a better understanding of how quick you can lose others. Now I cherish every single moment with my family
*I do have a mom and im thankful that shes here. So for all the comments saying how much they miss their mom, i promise to remind myself to always make time for her and not take everything for granted. My mom is a breast cancer and ovarian cancer survivor💖✨* Also, i never had a grandmother. She passed away when my mom was in highschool. And so im always longing for the love and affection from and grandma. I just wonder if this is what it also feels like to have a grandma...
Hello D, I give her the D cause this is ooo okey, sorry for that I just want to say I have pretty bad social anxiety too, and I don't have friends to talk about it, can we talk, here's my ig edgarallenlip. Have a good one.
I'm someone with grandparents- it can go either way. My paternal grandmother cheated on my paternal grandfather. I was always closer with my grandfather. He passed away when I was in fifth grade. It was really, really tough. My maternal grandfather passed before I was old enough to know him, and my maternal grandmother got super pissed when my brother came out and my mom cut her off for us. I came out shortly after to the rest of my family. my paternal grandmother is really the only one that's left. She tries, she tries pretty hard to be there. It just always feels a little off. I'll never have my grandfather back and it's weird to feel like someone else is trying to fill in a role they don't have to.
i felt this, i met my grandparents i think when i was 3 and never saw them again. by now i know the ones on my moms side died but idk about my dads side bc what am i supposed to do, text him and be like “yo dad are ur parents dead”?
Yeah i’m really grateful my mum is here as well, she’s also a breast cancer survivor and my maternal grandmother also passed away when my mom was very young we may have our disagreements but honestly i’m eternally thankful to my mum and that she survived breaths cancer she’s amazing and caring and so much more
I miss my dad he had extreme issues with his lungs and has stomach ulcers plus had mental instability including smoking and drinking problems after he got divorced. Sadly this led too his death and somehow I still ask myself. Is it my fault?
I’m just here, staring at my screen, wondering and marveling how people on the internet that you’ve never met in your life are nicer than the people you actually know
Pretty sure its because people can just be who they want to be on the internet without anyone telling them they can't. Irl i always feel like i can't be myself because of expectations from my class mates and people i know, but on the internet i always just try to make people happy. It's nice and quite rewarding!
@@MalakSmalak Haha, I know the feeling buddy! I often feel a bit closed off-ish and like a monster. Sometimes I share my thoughts but it is impossible to say them all. It is always nice to make a connection to a random person, talk about something nice, then go our own separate way. Knowing that I can make the day of another person's day or share some wisdom is something that I live for! Knowing that I will probably never make contact with them again on this huge planet saddens me but just puts into perspective that there are so many unique people out there, with their own stories, with their own struggles. I have no right to complain about mine nor act like I perfectly know what others talk about as I live in a pretty great environment but I always like to be there for the people with legitimate struggles and help them know love.
@@MalakSmalak There is the bad and the good in this world and we are all grey in terms of morality. However, seeing people get together and share raw emotions and experience makes it all worth it. It really makes you wonder how if it weren't for pain we would never of been able to experience healing and mutual connection to such an extent. I'm sorry, I am rambling on like I usually do. I hope you have a great day!
@@nicoornelas5676 i absolutely love your view on everything man. You seem like such a kind and genuine person :) It's great that people like you exist in this world and i completely agree with everything you said. Have an Amazing day man!!!!!
Honestly I was in a really dark place when I found your music and it’s helped a lot. It’s sad but really calming. I genuinely love you and have no idea why you aren’t more popular. Everyone should listen to your music at least once in their life. 💞💞
god this really hits me, i don’t have the best relationship with my mom but i remember back when she wasn’t like this. i miss my mom, but i miss my real mom. cause right now she’s just a shell of the mom i used to have, i miss being able to hug her and her telling me she loved me, this really hurts.
Whenever I hear anything like this I get so emotional. When I was younger and lived with just my mom, she was a huge drug addict and barely took care of me and my baby sister, so I had to. She was one hell of a terrible cook, stole money from me, and would often leave me with with my step dad (sisters dad) for long periods of time. She still tried her best though when she wasn’t stoned, but it got to the point when she broke up with my stepdad that my grandparents had to take us in. It wasn’t long until she left entirely, coming by every few months to take shelter every now and then until she stopped coming. She went to prison and when she got back she tried doing better but didn’t. Recently she had gotten a lot better and settled down in her own house with a boy she thought she would be together with forever, until he died nearly a month ago and it broke her, and she ODed just below my bedroom. So yeah, that’s what goes through my mind while listening to this song. Shit like this is powerful.
I miss my mum.... I wish I could show her this. She probably would have liked it. I love every song and the songs have really helped me through some tough times
Hello D, I give her the D cause this is ooo okey, sorry for that I just want to say I have pretty bad social anxiety too, and I don't have friends to talk about it, can we talk, here's my ig edgarallenlip. Have a good one.
Aww, this is wholesome. It reminds me of my dad, funnily enough- I unfortunately don’t have a good relationship with my mother, so I always like to think of my dad when I hear things like this :)
I miss the mum I could actually talk to without feeling judged. I miss the mum that I remember from when I was a little kid who I felt actually cared about me and was there for me when I needed her.
This is a shout-out to any kid who’s mom passed or left. You’re strong. You’re so incredibly strong. You’ve made it this far, I believe in you. Please believe in yourself.
I sent this to my mum since currently I'm in the UK and she's in Greece in total isolation with my doggy And I can't go due to the current chaos with coronavirus Please like this for my mum to see when I dedicate this song to her! Σ'αγαπώ μαμάκα μου λείπεις πολύ και ανυπομονώ να σου δώσω την πιο τεράστια αγκαλιά όταν βρεθούμε ξανά! Translation: Love you mommy I miss you and I look forward to giving you the biggest hug when we are together again!
I'm 16 and my mum had been sick since I was about 12, she passed away in June. please give your parents a ring and tell them how much you love them. "it's fine being a person because I got to meet you." when it's hard I remember I got to have her, and that makes it worth it. love you mum 💕
"I Miss My Mum" Pick up the phone Make your bed, eat some toast If reminding's what you needed Then here's your post-it note Sing a new song That's been there all along Throw it out into the distance There's no way to sing it wrong Buddy You just need to go home And I think maybe You just miss your mum Keep wakin' up But this weight on my chest It's just called bein' a person I never planned for this The sun feels nice Through the window with a view It's fine bein' a person 'Cause I got to meet you Buddy You just need to find home And I think maybe You just miss your mum I miss my mum I miss my mum I miss my mum I miss my mum
i lost my mom two weeks ago and in those weeks, i did nothing but distract myself from the fact that my mom isn't with me any longer. today, i'm facing it head on with this song and fuck have i never cried this hard in my life.
I lost my mom in June 2020. I am so sorry for your loss. I started listening to this song and I felt better but cried at the same time. It’s so hard right now I know. My ❤️ is with you!
I know it's hard but please realize that just because you're blood related it doesn't mean you have to have a relationship with her. If you live with her right now, please focus on improving yourself and making a better future for yourself. You should take what you dislike about her and make yourself into the best person you can be. Please stay strong :))
@@sohrren thank you. And I'm not okay. How can I be really? I'm just stressed, confused, broken, exhausted, alone, everything. But it's life. So I'm just trying to get through each day how I can.
@@agneseklavina8759 yeah, sorry it was a dumb question. We have to keep going, with the loss and the hole in our hearts, days will shine brighter with time.. :)
@@sohrren no it's fine. I get it. And I'm glad that someone understands me and that I can talk to someone because none of my friends understand or really talk to me about any of this.
everybody here’s talking about how much they miss their mom or parents, and i cant help but wish i had that kind of relationship with my parents, or at least a decent one, but sadly not, but this is still a very good song as is always with robin. i love it, i just wish i could relate. its one of those songs for me, like “daylight” by taylor swift, or “secret for the mad” by dodie, that are crushingly sad for me because of how much i just wish i could relate to them. which is a compliment by the way because i love both of those songs i think they’re amazing. anyway ill stop ranting nobody wants to hear that great song love your music ❤️❤️❤️
I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one here who have to pass by so much just bcoz his parents were bad, my mom screamed me that I was gross bcoz I had a girlfriend :)
I'm reading all the comments about people with moms that arent there mentally or physically. I hope one day your mum's get better in the future, it probably wont happen tomorrow or the next day, maybe month or year. But one day. If they already are not there physically, I hope you have or get a good motherly figure that will try their best to be the best mom they can :]
I miss the mom I had when I was a kid. the one who would drop me off at school and make me breakfast. now she's just a drug addict that gambles my college fund away and leaves me to deal with all the consequences of her actions and pick up all her pieces when shes a mess. which is most of the time. I just want my mom back.
I feel this too much, moms should be the example for us but sometimes they aren't and that's no fault of ours. I'm sure you're a wonderful person and I'm proud of you for getting through the day. Never forget that you're a strong person and every day it gets a little easier. Also I'm your parent now and I believe in you 🐸🌿
im sorry to hear that. my mom was an addict too. it gets better. trust me. you will survive this, so that one day, when your grown up, you can make a diffference in the world and help kids like you. atleast thats what i think. but i survived the worst of it, so i know you can.
I miss a mom who would be my mom, not my buddy or even child. I miss a mom who would listen to me not just talk for 2 hours straight. I miss a mom who would ask how I feel. I miss a mom who wouldn't yell at me if I don't give her my money. I miss a mom who wouldn't smile proudly at the empty bottles. I miss a mom who would care.
When i'm grown up, i'll ask mine if you can borrow her. I'd still need her, but we can share. Would take a couple years though , so try to stay save, brave and happy until then. And of course, alive ll-//
dude ive been stuck with my abusive grandparents house for 10 years, and the fact there homophobic / transphobic means a lot and it hurts. cause I-.. I wanna be trans. and gay at that.
I really miss my mom. I don't even think that statement holds enough power to fully exude my emotions. I miss the way she would talk to me about my day after school. How she'd ask me to help her out in the kitchen. How she'd stay up late at night with me to finish assignments for school even when she's fighting her sleepiness because she's tired. I miss the way she'd cut up fruit and bring it for me for no reason. I miss the way she'd call me "baby" bc I'm the youngest. I miss the way she'd call me on my way home from school to make sure I was safe. I miss bugging her with hugs and kisses constantly. I miss annoying her with "I love you's" every second of every day. I miss my best friend. There's a lot of things I wish too. I wish I had hugged her tighter the last time we embraced each other. I wish I had said my 'I love you' a little louder. I wish I had told her that she wouldn't have to worry bc I'd always take care of her. I wish I had tried harder to convince her not to get that surgery done. I wish she didn't leave without saying goodbye. I miss you mom. So, So, Much.
As someone who's never had a mom there for them, this brought me down to my knees crying l. I really thank you for your music and your time and effort u put into these songs.
Reading all theses comments make me realize how grateful I am to have a mom who’s always been there when things got rocky. It got really bad after my major spine surgery, but my mom was there to watch me relearn walking. She was there when my motor functions became good enough to play an instrument. She was there when I learned even something as mundane as monkey bars. I had some missteps on my way to where I am now, but she’s always been there to pick me back up. I’m the person I am because of her. I don’t know what I’d do without her. Thanks mom
@@Iwatchyousleeptwiceaday hey! it actually was, she reacted better than expected and even though it wasn't a perfect reaction and we still have our ups and downs, i think it was fine :)) thanks, friend
robbie, your music makes me smile. Your music has been with me for years now, and everytime i listen to any song i feel so at home. Your music reminds me of who i am, and i thank you for that.
my mom has rapidly declined in health over the last five years with dementia. i miss her everyday but today especially. thank u for another great track !
This got me through a really difficult time, I was homeless and in a shelter for young adults, I was four hours away from my mom but had no money to get to her. I used to bawl my eyes out listening to this song, I'm so glad I'm back with her now.
I miss my mom all the time. I’ve forgotten what it’s like to even say “mom” out loud. My mom passed away 5 years ago tomorrow from multiple myeloma cancer and my life has never been the same since. I’ve read a lot of comments about people talking about their mom sometimes yelling at them or not understanding them, just be patient, I’m sure things will pass. And unless your mom is actually abusive or neglectful, just be grateful to have one at all; and for the love of God hug her. Because the day you wake up without her will be the moment when you realize how good it felt to have someone like her in your life that you can never get back or replace...
Im sorry, it's very hard to live without someone, that was pretty important for us. Especially mum, that's the only person who know us for the start of our life. I'm really sorry, but you should look at this in as optimistic way as you can. You know, you've got some good memories with her and hopefully, she still supports you. She probably do not want you to be sad..
Youve made me cry, and I’m so sorry for you. I’m very grateful to have a good relationship with my mom. I’ll make sure to hug her for you. Have a great day/life
I feel for you. I lost my mom in 2018 and I still sometimes miss her. She was the best. I've moved on and I hope you have too. It's always good to know someone else is going through what you are. Stay safe.
I feel you bud i lost my mother when i was barely 9 she killed herself after a big fight with my father,i live with my grandparents now.So your not alone,and never will be our moms may not be here but if it means anything i am and so are many others hang in there.
this song came out a few months before my mom passed. i was missing her a little extra tonight. to this song and all the nice people in the comments, thank you for the comfort
I wish I had better memories with my mom. I’m leaving home soon and I just wish for once we could go one day without getting into an argument. Maybe just about something that mattered for once? I don’t hate her, but sometimes I find it hard to love her. If you have a good relationship with your parents, cherish it. It’s a special and rare bond from what I’ve seen.
my mom passed away on september 14th, 2021. after fighting with advanced lung cancer for two years. i was raised by a single mom, she had to do everything herself. there's no second parent to chip in, yet she still managed to make me feel super special. for years, she did it all by herself. i miss her every single day. people say you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone. truth is, you knew what you had, you just never thought you’d lose it. :(
My school closes today because of covid19, everyone's saying goodbye to each other and my lifelong friends are going to different colleges than me, its depressing as fuck, its come out of nowhere and nobody's ready for it to end, exams have been cancelled too which rlly just puts all the revision to waste
My mom and I, until earlier this week (when we found out school would be out for the week), almost never got along. We had this HUGE argument earlier this week, but this time, something changed. There was a realization that my mom felt, but not me. She realized that a lot of things she told me were worded wrong, and felt so guilty when she realized. Today, I got a little upset with her, but I ended up breaking down and telling her that I was mistreated by some students at school, and I thought she was also making fun of me. (I'm trans, ace, and bi) She comforted me and had stayed calm the whole time. This was a big change (she usually would yell at me) that I noticed, but she told me anyway that she was really trying to be better. Both my mother and I have SAD. It means seasonal depression, but it's really whether the Sun is showing brightly through the clouds that matters. I paused the video as soon as you sang "the sun feels nice" to type this. Also, my mom sings a lot of pop songs wrong, and I used to get so annoyed and correct her a lot, but the line "There's no way to sing it wrong" makes me realize that it can be more of an endearing thing than irritating. A few days before, I sang "lemon boy", and my mom asked what it meant. I told her it was someone learning to get along with his anxiety, and she thought that meant I was singing a song that made me depresses and started berating me about it. So, after my mom realized what we argued about hurt me, I went to her craft room to give her a hug and I caught her listening to LEMON BOY! MY mom listens to Cavetown now! MY MOM LISTENS TO CAVETOWN! You know what? I'm going to call March First our "Get-Along" anniversary, and I will never forget because this song marks the first time we BOTH started getting better (not just HER). Whelp, it's 4 AM, time to memorize this song and make my mom some toast when she wakes up! Edit: I think I forgot to mention that later that day, I asked for a binder (last time she said yes, and then denied we ever talked about it, so I was hesitent) and she was like "sure, why not". I'm gonna be perfectly happy forever probably, literally, nothing can *completely* ruin my happiness when I see how much I pass!
Lasertag Master Some comments in this comment section are incredibly heart breaking but I'm glad I read your story. This is really hopeful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing, I hope everything goes well! :)
I miss my mum sometimes. I was abused until the age of 5 and I got taken away from her one night (most traumatic event of my life that night.) I had contacts with her but one year I said I wanted to stop. When I wanted to see her again I found out my granddad had died from cancer. Now those are the 2 years of my life I regret the most. I missed seeing my mum for those years but most importantly I missed seeing my Grandpa.
can never get over robin's beautiful voice. his back vocals are so soothing and comforting. i just wanna make myself a warm cup of oat milk and be cozy :)
It's been 3 years since my mom passed away. And I feel like I'm slowly starting to forget her, her smile, her freckles her voice........I hate myself for the person I'm becoming. But every now and then I just wished I could go back to those days when I didn't know better...... I miss you.
My mom passed away Feburary 13th, 2020 (five days before her birthday), ending her life and I really really miss her... -Ngl i started to cry a little while listening- Really great song as always :'3
@@alyssa3405 why would you assume they're lies when you don't know this person. you don't know their struggles or who they are. please don't be so inconsiderate.
Reading through some of the comments is really eyeopening, it shows how many people are going through difficult times but still have that sort of longing and pang in the heart for people and feelings they don’t have anymore. It makes everything feel a lot less lonely
my mother passed away in 2018, ever since then I've changed the way i see things, I cherish everything I have and I'm grateful i have them, my mother was so sweet to me and she loved me with all her heart, she helped me through my darkest times and got me through tough things, she was always there for me, I wish I was more there for her, I feel like I didn't do enough, I feel like I didn't help her through HER darkest times, I do truly miss her, if you're reading this, please go up to your mum and give her the biggest hug ever, check on her and always tell her you love her..
This song honestly just made me bawl and I only just heard it once. It's such a beautiful and touching song. I wish sometimes that I never came out to my parents, because maybe then things would be better than they are now, though I know that's only true to some extent. My parents have both always treated me real shitty unlike my sister, and I always despised them for that but I loved them regardless. My mom at least was sometimes nice and down to earth and it was a relief on those days. Then fast forward to last month of my freshman year, a lot of things happened that I wont specify that I had to come out to my parents. So, I wrote them a letter, an 18 page letter about _EVERYTHING_ and I mean everything. I poured my entire being out writing that letter, I remember crying so hard when I was writing it that I had to stop sometimes because i couldnt see through my tears. I had no way of knowing how they would react, I just knew it wasnt going to be anything good for me. Anyways, a while later and I gave them the letter after being reprimanded for 2 hours about everything I've done against what the Bible says. And now, I just wish I never gave it to them, never bothered putting in the effort to write out such a heartfelt letter. My mom spoke to me first and just talked to me for another hour detailing everything wrong with what I wrote and trying to guilt me for feeling how I did. Then she goes and talks to my dad about how I replied to her, which I remember I was feeling a mix of livid and fear, and I had asked her, "Do I mean that little to you?" After she spoke to my dad for a moment, he went up to my room and just hit me around. Hes never been the type to talk about anything, which is what I've always despised him for, because at least my mom spoke to me, right? Anyways, fastforward to now, almost a year later and nothing has changed. The only thing is that they are pretending I never wrote that letter. I remember a few months ago I had the balls to ask my mom what she did with the letter while we were in the car going to church (which is one of the things I talked about in my letter, that I'm an atheist), and she just told me "Oh that? I threw it away. It was just trash. It's not like you wanted it anyway, right?" And at that point forward I just felt like I was really the one she was calling trash. I do miss my mom, the way she used to be. My dad's always been the same, but now that I've disappointed my mom I cant ever get her back to how she was. She was never the best parent, but she used to have her moment of kindness and tenderness. Now I'm the reason she doesnt and that's just what hurts most. I miss you, mom.
That made me cry, girl.. I'm so much sorry for you! I really believe that ur the strongest person i've ever known! Never regret or blame yourself for that letter. I think that it made everything clear for you and your family. Hope one day your relations became better! (srry for grammar, i'm russian)
Машуня Волкова - Your English/grammar was great! 👍 Cole DesJ - I’m so sorry. I’m and atheist and bi, never came out to my parents about it (so far). I hope one day your parents accept you and everything will be ok. Know that everyone here in the cavetown community is so proud of you for going through this, and for staying strong. Everyone here accepts you. Love ya ~ :)
That's not your fault at all for them acting that way, at some point you would've come out to them also, and that's just a really shitty situation. You aren't the reason she's like that, she's chosen to be like that and it's not fair to you at all. I hope you can get to a point where you're in a safer situation soon, and your parents will hopefully see that they've been wrong. It'll be okay soon
I’m so sorry. Please just remember, it’s not your fault, it never was, and never will be. I think it’ll get better, maybe not soon, but one day. A quiet reminder that you’re allowed to feel whatever way you’d like to. There’s no laws on how you should feel (and that doesn’t just involve your emotions). I’m so sorry.
god i started crying i'm in a similar place right now. my parents aren't religious, but i came out to them as nonbinary (and liking girls). neither of them will even attempt to understand my dysphoria, and so they've been harsh, deadnaming me, using she/her, "oh what a great daughter you are i love that i have such a pretty girl", things like that. it hurts, and honestly, i hope it gets better for you. not much else i can say.
This is going to be long and I would probably suggest to keep scrolling unless u want to read. This song hits close to home for me because when I was 6 months old my mum committed suicide. I never really knew why growing up but she clearly wasnt happy my siblings were 8 and 6 at the time and I was a baby so I couldnt remember her. My dad brought us all up on his own with little money and he starved his self when we were extremely poor so that me and my sister and brother could be fed. Growing up my mums death clearly became a massive part of my siblings and they ended up having anger issues and PTSD because of the situation of her death. Me,my sister and brother were always in and out of foster care after they kept making false accusations then finally it was just me and my dad in the small house. My brother and sister finally full time ended up in care. Growing up her death effected me too and I always wish we were a normal family,Me,my mum,my dad and my siblings altogether in a house. My dad ended up getting stressed out a lot and always raised his voice and lifted his hands to me because I was the person he started blaming for dumb reasons. As I got older I couldnt help but argue back but then I started getting really depressed and suicidal. I have self-harmed many times and almost died many times too. Me and my dad started talking about everything and he then looked at my wrists and burst out crying.He now has a better relationship with me.But ever since I was young I have always felt misunderstood and that nobody even wants to listen to me. I hope shes proud of me and Please just cherish every second you have of your mom if she's a good person coz one day the person you love could disappear in a flash. Have a great day and remember You are loved.❤
My mum has always been my grandmother. Ever since I was child. It has always been her. All the love I had, it was her. All the kindness, it was her. It's almost been a year since she passed away. Losing her felt like losing everything. I miss my mum.
I love my mom so much but sometimes I feel like she doesn’t understand me and doesn’t really want to or maybe she doesn’t know how to. Sometimes I feel frustration towards her and sometimes I feel like I need to get away from her. Hearing this song reminded that although she doesn’t really get me and I don’t really get her we still love each other and we have a good relationship
Hey robbie👋I've been a fan for a long time and all i wanted to say was your music is beautiful and its helped me through my depression and anxiety..thank you so much smol bean😊
I miss my mum even though she’s still here. I miss when her being happy, and I know it’s my fault that she’s not. I miss her real laugh and I miss her real smile because seeing her pretending breaks my heart
to anyone who sees this: how are you? no really, how are you? things have been really weird recently and i wanna make sure others are doing okay. if you see this, maybe comment this on another video and see how others are doing during this strange time. I'm sure everyone is pretty stoked about the new album!! it really was the only thing getting me through everything that's happening right now. anyway, i hope whoever is reading this is well/starts to feel better. stay positive everyone
Scarlett Johansen's soul not great it’s my birthday today and my parents didn’t even realize and when they did they just gave me money as a present because they forgot and I’m grateful for the money but they don’t even put thought into me anymore
@@maggiehillesheim4661 I'm so sorry. My own parents have forgotten my birthday twice and it hurts bad, I can't even imagine how it must feel to have that happen during this scary and weird time in the world. But I want you to know even if it doesn't count for much, I wish you a Happy Birthday! This year and every year to come. And I genuinely hope next year you get all the love, gifts, and community you deserve. Take care ❤️
I hope to find a home someday, but as of now, I feel like I don’t have one. My “home” is filled with poison and it brings back distant memories of my past when I was younger and also all the bad things that happened to me there. No home in sight, but I guess I’ll keep looking, thanks for the song as always, keep up the good work man.
I'm very sorry to everyone who lost, miss or just want their mom to love them. I am very grateful that God gave me my mom and I love her so much! I love you all and always remember me, this comment, I will support you even if we don't know each other. I want to tell you that someone out there loves you so much!💖 Please take care and be safe, always wash your hands! I love you all 💖
It’s almost three years that my mum passed away. This song made me cry like a little child. Good catharsis, thanks to the composer. Thank you for writing this song
This is my favorite song off “Sleepyhead.” It’s relaxing, cathartic, and musically interesting. The change in quality of the D# and E chords provides so much interest and change-up in the song. And the end is such a huge and climactic moment in the album and is absolutely phenomenal
when i still lived at home i would put sticky notes on my mom’s bathroom mirror asking her if she could wake me up earlier than usual, or if she could do my hair that morning or just to wish her a good day at work. when i left for college i hid sticky notes around the house for her to find when she got home from dropping me off, telling her how much i’ll miss her. she’s kept all of them, at least 200+ sticky notes from me, some of which aren’t important at all. when i asked her about it, she said they’re all important because they’re from me. i love her so much. being at a college 6 hours away really puts in perspective how much i need her in my life, cherish your mom while you can y’all!!!
Oh my jeez, this is so sweet!
That's honestly a beautiful relationship right there. I hope someday I can find a family like you have.
That's so wholesome

thanks grandma :>
Thank you😔I never met one and the other that i was extremely close to died of multiple cancers
:))
ghfldh thankyou, my grandmother passed away last year and i really miss her she was so sweet to me and i miss her so much
I miss my mom in a strange way. I’m not lonely without her, she’s practically yelling at me every second of the day. Crushing my dreams left and right just like what will happen to my skull if I start boxing, from what she tells me. I miss the person she used to be. The nice, energetic, mom who would wake me up every morning my hugging me. The mom who loved my dad. The mom who didn’t need to ask for money. I miss my mom, not the lady that yells at me every day to do stuff for her that she could easily do herself. I miss my mom. My old mom.
Your comment made me cry... I hope your mom sees the pain shes putting on you before its to late.
yeah
why did I scroll down the comment section
I've cried at atleast half of the comments
This litterally made me cry..
I can relate to you..
🥺 -no comment needed- 🥺
Gabby Camargo your comment hit a little to close to home
As a child of a mother who left 5 years ago, this legitimately made me cry. Thank you for making this, sincerely. ♥️
Edit: Thank you all so much for the encouraging words and telling your stories. Thank you for making me feel not alone. Well get through this guys, we just have to keep trucking. ❤️
Heyo absent mom squad! My mom kicked me out when I was thirteen and this song made me start bawling let me tell you
My mom passed last year
My mom died in august and I’m still a pretty young minor. I’m living with my sister now, but this also made me cry.
My mom left 2 years ago as of yesterday:’) this song really hit home
@@Melody15 yea I'm living with my sister too cause my stepdad kicked me out
Even though my mom is here she isnt. . She hasnt been mentally here for a long time and i miss her. I cant remember when she was mentally here but its like that feeling you get when your around them. Its all warm but they act so cold.
pizza warship I’m sorry, I hope your mom will be there soon 🙂 I hope she gets better and you do too 😊
pizza warship I can relate, I’m not sure what to do.
pizza warship my mom was never emotionally stable enough to take care of me and constantly would just lie and check out. I always knew that she was kind of just too fragile for this world, she could never cope with our needs or confronting that she was neglecting us. I relate so hard to your comment
Ever since my mother and father got divorced, she hasn't been the same. She's been to a mental health hospital but she chose to not get diagnosed. I miss how she used to be. I sure as hell don't like her talking and cussing to herself about stuff. I know it's not her fault though..
😔✨
I miss my "old" mum. Who would not get frustrated at everything I do. Not call me bad things at everything I do. Who didn't yell at me and who loved me. To whom I could share all my secrets. With whom I could spend time alone. Who would let me lay my head on her shoulder. Who would not say 'cry more' when I would cry. Who loved to be with me. With Whom _I_ loved to be. Now, nostalgia is killing me, so, please, please Come Back. I miss you.
@@li.v_v thanks, Ill dm u
i feel you ..
i guess .. it’s comforting knowing we’re not alone
@@nessaysokai853 yea it is :(
I feel ya on this one. Happened so suddenly, like the change came outta nowhere. And no matter how hard you try to neglect the yelling and try to not let it get to you it still hurts. Especially since well I was raised by a single mom and I never liked or bonded with my dad until about a year or two ago since he was never around. And to see the person who you loved the most, trusted the most just change so suddenly and yell and get frustrated at every little mistake you make and it feels like you can’t be human anymore. This all happened about a week or two ago. I’m just tired in general. Like tired physically, emotionally and mentally. Physically cause I barely sleep and my diet isn’t the best, I don’t really work out anymore either. Mentally because of all the school stress and emotionally because I get yelled at all the time and well I fell out of love with myself and so I tend to self deprecate a lot. I know others have it worse but yeah guess I needed a rant 😅 Hope you have a beautiful day!
-a stranger trying to fix himself
Hey, this is EXACTLY how i feel, my mom was so caring and loving before her surgery. After her surgery she changed, she cheated many times on my dad and betrayed our family. She doesnt live with us anymore. I honestly hate her. She has hit my siblings and cussed up all out shes the worst fucking mom ever
i miss my mom so much. haven’t seen her in one and half years. they kicked me out after i came out and refuse to talk to me. even though i’m angry they did this, i’m more sad than mad because i just miss my mom. i miss knowing she had my back. i miss her still loving me.
that's awful. I can't make it any better with a comment but I'm sending you so much virtual love through this screen. you're unbelievably strong to be able to get through that but I wish you never did. xx
same thing happened to me a year and a half ago, i miss the same things
Not pog champ
I'm so sorry. That's awful. You deserve love and kindness and acceptance. I hope they come around. Take care and stay safe! You're not alone. Sending lots of love.
I'm sorry

I'm currently working through a lot of trauma as newly unrepressed memories come up about my bio mother. I think I'm about to enter a legal battle with her, so this song stings. But I dedicate it to my adoptive mother, aka my grandmother. I know she won't see this but I love you grandma
hope you guys win
I wish you the best of luck!!!
You are so strong and you will make it!!!!
Feel hugged from me and all the other people that saw ur comment!!!!
This is so sweet 💕 I wish you the best of luck in your legal battle
This must be so hard for you. I hope you make it through ❤️
Wish you the best of luck pal!💖✨
I miss my mom. She was my best friend, she passed 2 years ago on Christmas Eve, worst Christmas ever. Also I'm only 15 and she passed in her sleep. Mom, I hope your doing well in heaven.
Similar situation I hope your doing well
My mom just passed a few months ago in her sleep too right before I turned 15 I know it doesn't help but I'm so sorry
@@Breadthatiscrusty :(
I'm 21 had to let her go today
she's proud of you
This made me legit cry. My mom has so many health issues, including cancer, and this reminded me about how much I miss when I was able to be around her a lot. Very beautiful song. I love it
It's sad and kinda cute...I hope you feeling well now...
B tw I need to tell you that I love your photo profile.
same, my mom had cancer and i lost her to it i miss her
Same..
AAA I love how all the lyrics are on little sticky notes I just adore that ;w;
also can youtube calm down,,,3 views, 43 comments, and none of them are showing up.
"Months before she died, Mom and I went on a mother-daughter day to the city to see if it could improve our relationship. Over lunch, she told me she was always, in her mind, looking for the mother who abandoned her. I wanted to tell her: Yeah, me too."
-I'll Give You The Sun by Jandy Nelson.
Though not exactly well, my mom is alive. But still, that quote hit me just as hard as this whole song did.
That was such a beautiful book.
you just reminded me of that scene. a perfect quote for a perfect song.
my favorite book :"))♡
My mom is in the next room and it's 3:02 a.m. I miss her even though she's just sleeping. She has a genetic condition that might cause cancer if left untreated, she had a surgery that changed her way of living and lowered her self esteem. I would buy the world if that made her realise she's beautiful and perfect. I couldn't live without her, and I wouldn't want to either. After losing my dad I miss my mom even when she just leaves the room. When you lose someone, you look back on everything with a better understanding of how quick you can lose others. Now I cherish every single moment with my family
I’m so sorry I hope you and you’re mom are okay right now.
*I do have a mom and im thankful that shes here. So for all the comments saying how much they miss their mom, i promise to remind myself to always make time for her and not take everything for granted. My mom is a breast cancer and ovarian cancer survivor💖✨*
Also, i never had a grandmother. She passed away when my mom was in highschool. And so im always longing for the love and affection from and grandma. I just wonder if this is what it also feels like to have a grandma...
Hello D, I give her the D cause this is ooo okey, sorry for that I just want to say I have pretty bad social anxiety too, and I don't have friends to talk about it, can we talk, here's my ig edgarallenlip. Have a good one.
Ive always wondered what it's like to have a grandparent so I definitely understand that
I'm someone with grandparents- it can go either way. My paternal grandmother cheated on my paternal grandfather. I was always closer with my grandfather. He passed away when I was in fifth grade. It was really, really tough. My maternal grandfather passed before I was old enough to know him, and my maternal grandmother got super pissed when my brother came out and my mom cut her off for us. I came out shortly after to the rest of my family. my paternal grandmother is really the only one that's left. She tries, she tries pretty hard to be there. It just always feels a little off. I'll never have my grandfather back and it's weird to feel like someone else is trying to fill in a role they don't have to.
i felt this, i met my grandparents i think when i was 3 and never saw them again. by now i know the ones on my moms side died but idk about my dads side bc what am i supposed to do, text him and be like “yo dad are ur parents dead”?
Yeah i’m really grateful my mum is here as well, she’s also a breast cancer survivor and my maternal grandmother also passed away when my mom was very young we may have our disagreements but honestly i’m eternally thankful to my mum and that she survived breaths cancer she’s amazing and caring and so much more
day eight of quarantine: ran out of rations, had cavetown’s new song for breakfast today, it was amazing
ok but mood
You eating gods food 😛😛
Breakfast? Isn't it like, midnight? Lmao.
I cant tell if this is a really funny comment or im just sleep deprived (I haven't slept in 2 days)
Bored Gay i’m nocturnal :D
For everyone who’s missing someone, We hope you’ll see them in your dreams. 💜💙💜💙
felt that
Yes
I miss my dad he had extreme issues with his lungs and has stomach ulcers plus had mental instability including smoking and drinking problems after he got divorced. Sadly this led too his death and somehow I still ask myself. Is it my fault?
I dont want too... I dont want to remember
Its not the topic but those hearts u sent is stephens colour and his brothers colour xD (from danplan) but was danplan
I’m just here, staring at my screen, wondering and marveling how people on the internet that you’ve never met in your life are nicer than the people you actually know
Fr.
Pretty sure its because people can just be who they want to be on the internet without anyone telling them they can't. Irl i always feel like i can't be myself because of expectations from my class mates and people i know, but on the internet i always just try to make people happy. It's nice and quite rewarding!
@@MalakSmalak Haha, I know the feeling buddy! I often feel a bit closed off-ish and like a monster. Sometimes I share my thoughts but it is impossible to say them all. It is always nice to make a connection to a random person, talk about something nice, then go our own separate way. Knowing that I can make the day of another person's day or share some wisdom is something that I live for! Knowing that I will probably never make contact with them again on this huge planet saddens me but just puts into perspective that there are so many unique people out there, with their own stories, with their own struggles. I have no right to complain about mine nor act like I perfectly know what others talk about as I live in a pretty great environment but I always like to be there for the people with legitimate struggles and help them know love.
@@MalakSmalak There is the bad and the good in this world and we are all grey in terms of morality. However, seeing people get together and share raw emotions and experience makes it all worth it. It really makes you wonder how if it weren't for pain we would never of been able to experience healing and mutual connection to such an extent. I'm sorry, I am rambling on like I usually do. I hope you have a great day!
@@nicoornelas5676 i absolutely love your view on everything man. You seem like such a kind and genuine person :) It's great that people like you exist in this world and i completely agree with everything you said. Have an Amazing day man!!!!!
Honestly I was in a really dark place when I found your music and it’s helped a lot. It’s sad but really calming. I genuinely love you and have no idea why you aren’t more popular. Everyone should listen to your music at least once in their life. 💞💞

Sometimes sadness just needs company. ^^ 💕
god this really hits me, i don’t have the best relationship with my mom but i remember back when she wasn’t like this. i miss my mom, but i miss my real mom. cause right now she’s just a shell of the mom i used to have, i miss being able to hug her and her telling me she loved me, this really hurts.
I'm in the exact same situation, I wish I could go back
😔
I get how you feel, it hurts knowing shes not the same and I dont think my mom ever will be again
ArchieBean relating with you big time here, understand
oh shit this got likes, but to everyone who feels the same, i love you, things get better 💕💕💕
Whenever I hear anything like this I get so emotional. When I was younger and lived with just my mom, she was a huge drug addict and barely took care of me and my baby sister, so I had to. She was one hell of a terrible cook, stole money from me, and would often leave me with with my step dad (sisters dad) for long periods of time. She still tried her best though when she wasn’t stoned, but it got to the point when she broke up with my stepdad that my grandparents had to take us in. It wasn’t long until she left entirely, coming by every few months to take shelter every now and then until she stopped coming. She went to prison and when she got back she tried doing better but didn’t. Recently she had gotten a lot better and settled down in her own house with a boy she thought she would be together with forever, until he died nearly a month ago and it broke her, and she ODed just below my bedroom. So yeah, that’s what goes through my mind while listening to this song. Shit like this is powerful.
ThatGal Bailey I’m really sorry you had to go through that :( I hope you and your sister are okay now
hey I'm sorry you had go to through that :( i hope things get better for you and everyone you love
man, im so sorry you had to go through that. hope you're doing better bud :( ♡♡
Life really is brutal, I feel bad for everyone involved, here’s to hoping that some kind of divine justice brings better luck your way though.
Im so sorry you had to go through traumas like that. Thats really tough and nobody deserves that. Stay strong

i lost my mom two weeks ago and in those weeks, i did nothing but distract myself from the fact that my mom isn't with me any longer. today, i'm facing it head on with this song and fuck have i never cried this hard in my life.
I lost my mom in June 2020. I am so sorry for your loss. I started listening to this song and I felt better but cried at the same time. It’s so hard right now I know. My ❤️ is with you!
It verry hard losing our mothers, hooe it wil feel better one day.
I lost my mom now Jan 4th 2024 it's hard
I miss my “old” mother, the mother who didn't get drunk, who didn't yell at me and who loved me
I am sorry. I hope it get's better and that you're okay!
Just Me thx 🙏
i love my "new" mother who doesnt throw stuff at me doesnt get mad at me, but i hate my "new" dad who slaps me and yells at me
I know it's hard but please realize that just because you're blood related it doesn't mean you have to have a relationship with her. If you live with her right now, please focus on improving yourself and making a better future for yourself. You should take what you dislike about her and make yourself into the best person you can be. Please stay strong :))
soulBoi same bb it’s ok we’re not alone at all.

Hey mom I love you
everybody here’s talking about how much they miss their mom or parents, and i cant help but wish i had that kind of relationship with my parents, or at least a decent one, but sadly not, but this is still a very good song as is always with robin. i love it, i just wish i could relate.
its one of those songs for me, like “daylight” by taylor swift, or “secret for the mad” by dodie, that are crushingly sad for me because of how much i just wish i could relate to them. which is a compliment by the way because i love both of those songs i think they’re amazing.
anyway ill stop ranting nobody wants to hear that
great song
love your music ❤️❤️❤️
I litrally knit said almost the same thing, I wish I had actually parents who cared and loved me
Avery Of The Opera I know how you feel it’s the same with me
I feel exactly this way. Don't worry, we'll get through life okay in the end 🤗
I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one here who have to pass by so much just bcoz his parents were bad, my mom screamed me that I was gross bcoz I had a girlfriend :)
@Abigail Aukerman I'm not sure but I think it's a she
This was adorable
Best thing to listen to before you fall asleep ❤️
I'm literally listening to this before I go to bed
Shelby yes same
Yess same :3
I was just about to go to bed too 😆
I'm reading all the comments about people with moms that arent there mentally or physically. I hope one day your mum's get better in the future, it probably wont happen tomorrow or the next day, maybe month or year. But one day. If they already are not there physically, I hope you have or get a good motherly figure that will try their best to be the best mom they can :]
aw, thanks. my mom is Bipolar so its been hard to let herself love me. this gives me hope she'll get better one day :)
Reading through the comments and hearing this song... god, I never realized how lucky I am to have a caring, loving, ever-supportive mom.
I miss the mom I had when I was a kid. the one who would drop me off at school and make me breakfast. now she's just a drug addict that gambles my college fund away and leaves me to deal with all the consequences of her actions and pick up all her pieces when shes a mess. which is most of the time. I just want my mom back.
im sorry
*huge hug* I’m so sorry💔 I know I can’t be a substitute for the mom you had, but I’d like to be your mom friend ❣️
I feel this too much, moms should be the example for us but sometimes they aren't and that's no fault of ours. I'm sure you're a wonderful person and I'm proud of you for getting through the day. Never forget that you're a strong person and every day it gets a little easier. Also I'm your parent now and I believe in you 🐸🌿
stay in there bud, my mom was the same way but now me and her are best friends and shes been clean for 3 years
im sorry to hear that. my mom was an addict too. it gets better. trust me. you will survive this, so that one day, when your grown up, you can make a diffference in the world and help kids like you. atleast thats what i think. but i survived the worst of it, so i know you can.
I miss a mom who would be my mom, not my buddy or even child. I miss a mom who would listen to me not just talk for 2 hours straight. I miss a mom who would ask how I feel. I miss a mom who wouldn't yell at me if I don't give her my money. I miss a mom who wouldn't smile proudly at the empty bottles. I miss a mom who would care.
I'm really sorry for this but- 69th comment 7w7
Wait- like*
Love the pfp (a fellow tøp fan I see)
i relate so hard. haven’t seen her or contacted her in 2 years this summer.
When i'm grown up, i'll ask mine if you can borrow her. I'd still need her, but we can share. Would take a couple years though , so try to stay save, brave and happy until then.
And of course, alive ll-//
Me: •leaves my house for my grandparents for a couple months•
Cavetown: •uploads this the day I leave•
Me: . . . Thanks fam :')
Awww good luck tho!!
me too I left today 😭
he's watching you
dude ive been stuck with my abusive grandparents house for 10 years, and the fact there homophobic / transphobic means a lot and it hurts. cause I-.. I wanna be trans. and gay at that.
Aww
I really miss my mom.
I don't even think that statement holds enough power to fully exude my emotions.
I miss the way she would talk to me about my day after school.
How she'd ask me to help her out in the kitchen.
How she'd stay up late at night with me to finish assignments for school even when she's fighting her sleepiness because she's tired.
I miss the way she'd cut up fruit and bring it for me for no reason.
I miss the way she'd call me "baby" bc I'm the youngest.
I miss the way she'd call me on my way home from school to make sure I was safe.
I miss bugging her with hugs and kisses constantly.
I miss annoying her with "I love you's" every second of every day.
I miss my best friend.
There's a lot of things I wish too.
I wish I had hugged her tighter the last time we embraced each other.
I wish I had said my 'I love you' a little louder.
I wish I had told her that she wouldn't have to worry bc I'd always take care of her.
I wish I had tried harder to convince her not to get that surgery done.
I wish she didn't leave without saying goodbye.
I miss you mom.
So,
So,
Much.

Reading all theses comments make me realize how grateful I am to have a mom who’s always been there when things got rocky. It got really bad after my major spine surgery, but my mom was there to watch me relearn walking. She was there when my motor functions became good enough to play an instrument. She was there when I learned even something as mundane as monkey bars. I had some missteps on my way to where I am now, but she’s always been there to pick me back up. I’m the person I am because of her. I don’t know what I’d do without her. Thanks mom
I really hope I never have to cry to this song
Mom, pls love me when I come out, I know you will

This got me through a really difficult time, I was homeless and in a shelter for young adults, I was four hours away from my mom but had no money to get to her. I used to bawl my eyes out listening to this song, I'm so glad I'm back with her now.

I miss my mom all the time. I’ve forgotten what it’s like to even say “mom” out loud. My mom passed away 5 years ago tomorrow from multiple myeloma cancer and my life has never been the same since. I’ve read a lot of comments about people talking about their mom sometimes yelling at them or not understanding them, just be patient, I’m sure things will pass. And unless your mom is actually abusive or neglectful, just be grateful to have one at all; and for the love of God hug her. Because the day you wake up without her will be the moment when you realize how good it felt to have someone like her in your life that you can never get back or replace...
It's going to be ok buddy :)
Im sorry, it's very hard to live without someone, that was pretty important for us. Especially mum, that's the only person who know us for the start of our life. I'm really sorry, but you should look at this in as optimistic way as you can. You know, you've got some good memories with her and hopefully, she still supports you. She probably do not want you to be sad..
Youve made me cry, and I’m so sorry for you. I’m very grateful to have a good relationship with my mom. I’ll make sure to hug her for you. Have a great day/life
I feel for you. I lost my mom in 2018 and I still sometimes miss her. She was the best. I've moved on and I hope you have too. It's always good to know someone else is going through what you are. Stay safe.
I feel you bud i lost my mother when i was barely 9 she killed herself after a big fight with my father,i live with my grandparents now.So your not alone,and never will be our moms may not be here but if it means anything i am and so are many others hang in there.

Hehe this actually cheered me up a bit I’m a little blue
I wish I had better memories with my mom. I’m leaving home soon and I just wish for once we could go one day without getting into an argument. Maybe just about something that mattered for once? I don’t hate her, but sometimes I find it hard to love her. If you have a good relationship with your parents, cherish it. It’s a special and rare bond from what I’ve seen.
Heyyy i am your mom now ok we will make the best memories together
Try having a heart to heart deep convo about it
my mom passed away on september 14th, 2021. after fighting with advanced lung cancer for two years. i was raised by a single mom, she had to do everything herself. there's no second parent to chip in, yet she still managed to make me feel super special. for years, she did it all by herself.
i miss her every single day.
people say you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone. truth is, you knew what you had, you just never thought you’d lose it. :(
Im so sorry for your lost man
My Mom crossed over November 23 2023 I Love and Miss My Mom I feel so all alone
I’ve been a bit stressed with school and my personal life lately, it’s really nice to have a new song to just unwind and just listen to :’))
amen para, a fucking men
My school closes today because of covid19, everyone's saying goodbye to each other and my lifelong friends are going to different colleges than me, its depressing as fuck, its come out of nowhere and nobody's ready for it to end, exams have been cancelled too which rlly just puts all the revision to waste
LILAH JACOBS :((
My mom and I, until earlier this week (when we found out school would be out for the week), almost never got along.
We had this HUGE argument earlier this week, but this time, something changed.
There was a realization that my mom felt, but not me. She realized that a lot of things she told me were worded wrong, and felt so guilty when she realized.
Today, I got a little upset with her, but I ended up breaking down and telling her that I was mistreated by some students at school, and I thought she was also making fun of me. (I'm trans, ace, and bi)
She comforted me and had stayed calm the whole time. This was a big change (she usually would yell at me) that I noticed, but she told me anyway that she was really trying to be better.
Both my mother and I have SAD. It means seasonal depression, but it's really whether the Sun is showing brightly through the clouds that matters.
I paused the video as soon as you sang "the sun feels nice" to type this.
Also, my mom sings a lot of pop songs wrong, and I used to get so annoyed and correct her a lot, but the line "There's no way to sing it wrong" makes me realize that it can be more of an endearing thing than irritating.
A few days before, I sang "lemon boy", and my mom asked what it meant. I told her it was someone learning to get along with his anxiety, and she thought that meant I was singing a song that made me depresses and started berating me about it.
So, after my mom realized what we argued about hurt me, I went to her craft room to give her a hug and I caught her listening to LEMON BOY! MY mom listens to Cavetown now! MY MOM LISTENS TO CAVETOWN!
You know what? I'm going to call March First our "Get-Along" anniversary, and I will never forget because this song marks the first time we BOTH started getting better (not just HER).
Whelp, it's 4 AM, time to memorize this song and make my mom some toast when she wakes up!
Edit: I think I forgot to mention that later that day, I asked for a binder (last time she said yes, and then denied we ever talked about it, so I was hesitent) and she was like "sure, why not". I'm gonna be perfectly happy forever probably, literally, nothing can *completely* ruin my happiness when I see how much I pass!

i miss my mum more than ever. i hope shes proud. everything i do is for her.
I miss my mum sometimes. I was abused until the age of 5 and I got taken away from her one night (most traumatic event of my life that night.) I had contacts with her but one year I said I wanted to stop. When I wanted to see her again I found out my granddad had died from cancer. Now those are the 2 years of my life I regret the most. I missed seeing my mum for those years but most importantly I missed seeing my Grandpa.
can never get over robin's beautiful voice. his back vocals are so soothing and comforting. i just wanna make myself a warm cup of oat milk and be cozy :)
Aww this is wholesome
Like all the others :)
It's been 3 years since my mom passed away. And I feel like I'm slowly starting to forget her, her smile, her freckles her voice........I hate myself for the person I'm becoming. But every now and then I just wished I could go back to those days when I didn't know better...... I miss you.
MY HEART THIS IS SO SWEET

Reading through some of the comments is really eyeopening, it shows how many people are going through difficult times but still have that sort of longing and pang in the heart for people and feelings they don’t have anymore. It makes everything feel a lot less lonely
my mother passed away in 2018, ever since then I've changed the way i see things, I cherish everything I have and I'm grateful i have them, my mother was so sweet to me and she loved me with all her heart, she helped me through my darkest times and got me through tough things, she was always there for me, I wish I was more there for her, I feel like I didn't do enough, I feel like I didn't help her through HER darkest times, I do truly miss her, if you're reading this, please go up to your mum and give her the biggest hug ever, check on her and always tell her you love her..
this is the perfect 'I'm Quarantined At University Miles Away From My Mum' mood, and i may or may not be an emotional wreck over it
This song honestly just made me bawl and I only just heard it once. It's such a beautiful and touching song. I wish sometimes that I never came out to my parents, because maybe then things would be better than they are now, though I know that's only true to some extent. My parents have both always treated me real shitty unlike my sister, and I always despised them for that but I loved them regardless. My mom at least was sometimes nice and down to earth and it was a relief on those days. Then fast forward to last month of my freshman year, a lot of things happened that I wont specify that I had to come out to my parents. So, I wrote them a letter, an 18 page letter about _EVERYTHING_ and I mean everything. I poured my entire being out writing that letter, I remember crying so hard when I was writing it that I had to stop sometimes because i couldnt see through my tears. I had no way of knowing how they would react, I just knew it wasnt going to be anything good for me. Anyways, a while later and I gave them the letter after being reprimanded for 2 hours about everything I've done against what the Bible says. And now, I just wish I never gave it to them, never bothered putting in the effort to write out such a heartfelt letter. My mom spoke to me first and just talked to me for another hour detailing everything wrong with what I wrote and trying to guilt me for feeling how I did. Then she goes and talks to my dad about how I replied to her, which I remember I was feeling a mix of livid and fear, and I had asked her, "Do I mean that little to you?" After she spoke to my dad for a moment, he went up to my room and just hit me around. Hes never been the type to talk about anything, which is what I've always despised him for, because at least my mom spoke to me, right? Anyways, fastforward to now, almost a year later and nothing has changed. The only thing is that they are pretending I never wrote that letter. I remember a few months ago I had the balls to ask my mom what she did with the letter while we were in the car going to church (which is one of the things I talked about in my letter, that I'm an atheist), and she just told me "Oh that? I threw it away. It was just trash. It's not like you wanted it anyway, right?" And at that point forward I just felt like I was really the one she was calling trash. I do miss my mom, the way she used to be. My dad's always been the same, but now that I've disappointed my mom I cant ever get her back to how she was. She was never the best parent, but she used to have her moment of kindness and tenderness. Now I'm the reason she doesnt and that's just what hurts most. I miss you, mom.
That made me cry, girl.. I'm so much sorry for you! I really believe that ur the strongest person i've ever known! Never regret or blame yourself for that letter. I think that it made everything clear for you and your family. Hope one day your relations became better! (srry for grammar, i'm russian)
Машуня Волкова - Your English/grammar was great! 👍 Cole DesJ - I’m so sorry. I’m and atheist and bi, never came out to my parents about it (so far). I hope one day your parents accept you and everything will be ok. Know that everyone here in the cavetown community is so proud of you for going through this, and for staying strong. Everyone here accepts you. Love ya ~ :)
That's not your fault at all for them acting that way, at some point you would've come out to them also, and that's just a really shitty situation. You aren't the reason she's like that, she's chosen to be like that and it's not fair to you at all. I hope you can get to a point where you're in a safer situation soon, and your parents will hopefully see that they've been wrong. It'll be okay soon
I’m so sorry. Please just remember, it’s not your fault, it never was, and never will be. I think it’ll get better, maybe not soon, but one day. A quiet reminder that you’re allowed to feel whatever way you’d like to. There’s no laws on how you should feel (and that doesn’t just involve your emotions). I’m so sorry.
god i started crying
i'm in a similar place right now. my parents aren't religious, but i came out to them as nonbinary (and liking girls). neither of them will even attempt to understand my dysphoria, and so they've been harsh, deadnaming me, using she/her, "oh what a great daughter you are i love that i have such a pretty girl", things like that. it hurts, and honestly, i hope it gets better for you. not much else i can say.
cavetown always makes me so happy. his voice is so soothing. ive been crying... this really helped me. thank you.
Aww don't be sad!
This is going to be long and I would probably suggest to keep scrolling unless u want to read.
This song hits close to home for me because when I was 6 months old my mum committed suicide.
I never really knew why growing up but she clearly wasnt happy my siblings were 8 and 6 at the time and I was a baby so I couldnt remember her.
My dad brought us all up on his own with little money and he starved his self when we were extremely poor so that me and my sister and brother could be fed.
Growing up my mums death clearly became a massive part of my siblings and they ended up having anger issues and PTSD because of the situation of her death.
Me,my sister and brother were always in and out of foster care after they kept making false accusations then finally it was just me and my dad in the small house.
My brother and sister finally full time ended up in care.
Growing up her death effected me too and I always wish we were a normal family,Me,my mum,my dad and my siblings altogether in a house.
My dad ended up getting stressed out a lot and always raised his voice and lifted his hands to me because I was the person he started blaming for dumb reasons.
As I got older I couldnt help but argue back but then I started getting really depressed and suicidal.
I have self-harmed many times and almost died many times too.
Me and my dad started talking about everything and he then looked at my wrists and burst out crying.He now has a better relationship with me.But ever since I was young I have always felt misunderstood and that nobody even wants to listen to me.
I hope shes proud of me and Please just cherish every second you have of your mom if she's a good person coz one day the person you love could disappear in a flash.
Have a great day and remember You are loved.❤
Jo plxnet sorry if this isn’t the best I’m not to good with things like this but I just want you to know that you are loved and you are important!

My mum has always been my grandmother. Ever since I was child. It has always been her.
All the love I had, it was her.
All the kindness, it was her.
It's almost been a year since she passed away. Losing her felt like losing everything.
I miss my mum.
I miss my friends before corona days
Same mate :
I love my mom so much but sometimes I feel like she doesn’t understand me and doesn’t really want to or maybe she doesn’t know how to. Sometimes I feel frustration towards her and sometimes I feel like I need to get away from her. Hearing this song reminded that although she doesn’t really get me and I don’t really get her we still love each other and we have a good relationship
Hey robbie👋I've been a fan for a long time and all i wanted to say was your music is beautiful and its helped me through my depression and anxiety..thank you so much smol bean😊
this is so wholesome, i appreciate the fact that these little songs have dedication to things, like this one which is dedicated to robin's mother.
I miss my mum even though she’s still here. I miss when her being happy, and I know it’s my fault that she’s not. I miss her real laugh and I miss her real smile because seeing her pretending breaks my heart
to anyone who sees this: how are you? no really, how are you? things have been really weird recently and i wanna make sure others are doing okay. if you see this, maybe comment this on another video and see how others are doing during this strange time. I'm sure everyone is pretty stoked about the new album!! it really was the only thing getting me through everything that's happening right now. anyway, i hope whoever is reading this is well/starts to feel better. stay positive everyone

This is my favorite song off “Sleepyhead.” It’s relaxing, cathartic, and musically interesting. The change in quality of the D# and E chords provides so much interest and change-up in the song. And the end is such a huge and climactic moment in the album and is absolutely phenomenal
