I feel like this is one of the types of songs Hunter S. Thompson was referring to. If you listen to this loudly, no matter how long you've been on empty. You'll have another 50 miles in you.
This song always gives me an uneasy feeling, in a good way. Accepting that we as humans will never experience everything can be hard sometimes. The list of things we don't and will never know can be disheartening
Currently sitting in my room sobbing. my 18th is in 13 days n I’ve had to beg people to just come. It’s been awhile since I’ve felt so lonely. I’m glad I’m always able to come back to this song and find comfort.
If your friends suck, you'll find other ones along the way, don't worry. Just avoid toxic relationships. Learn some guitar or create beats, start a band, join a community (something IRL like skate, art, anything), make like-minded friends, have fun & explore. There's pain AND joy, lots of.
I think it’s crazy how some random stranger across the world can write a song that perfectly describes what you’re going through. It’s uncanny how much each little line is poignant and cuts me a little bit when I hear it because it’s so painfully true. I genuinely never learned to dance so I thought I would be cheeky and listen, but you ripped my heart out with how exact this is to what I think and feel; even how I would word it or interpret this in my own perspective
This is an amazing commnet, thank you for searching deep within for these words and then sharing them with the internet to read. Many will skip over it not understanding the importance of such a comment being on the internet. Again, thank you.
@@kickandthehug4447shit takes a beating and you think it's broken and never coming back, and then after what feels like way too long or going to be never... Suddenly the shit knits itself together again. Fucking crazy game. 🪷
Please put this version on every platform. I love it and listen to it everyday. You have a beautiful mind, and you deserve the best parts of this world. Stay true, stay strong.
i dont care if you get youtube premium or not, but if you do you can download videos and thats what i did. listen to it everyday on my walk to work. can turn your screen off too while the video plays
As a human who gets affixed to certain songs, certain messages, certain rhythms, so on and so forth, this song has so much for me personally. Reminds me of my ex, River, first of all. Now, I’m across the country. Moved to Cali to get away from it all, truth be told. The alcoholism. The weather he speaks of. The wrecklessness. And now that it has been a couple of years, I still miss her, knowing that I’d go back to Florida of all states if she only wanted me to be there. Speaks so much of how us humans move and migrate. Out of tune. Unsure of where we belong. Unsure of who to serve here in this reality. Started dating someone afterwards for a few months. And I would’ve stayed there in Jax if I felt like I should have. But I listened to my heart, moved here to Cali, and I married my one true love. Someone who will help me carry this burden of everything through the rest of this existence. Doing all the things. Keeping light. Sharing light.
My guy. Lord have mercy. I wasn’t prepared for this. That was truly remarkable. At this moment I don’t know any of your stuff outside this song, but whatever it is you’re doing, keep that soul lit brother.
This is just so pure. Raw, emotional, and moving. A stunning performance captured in time. This is the absolute definition of art- so much more than just about the music. It feels like you managed to capture years of experience and bottle it, then share it with all of us in 4 awe-inspiring minutes. Incredible work!
This is the perfect song to cry to. Though I think I've moved on from crying to straight up wailing. The pain is just so palpable and relatable. He says so much in so few words. This performance is so beautifully stripped down and emotional. I cant stop listening. Its constantly stuck in my head. A truly moving song and performance. Thank you from the bottom of my sad, lonely, burnt out heart.
I dont think I've stopped repeating this song since I found it a couple days ago. So damn good, totally agree with everyone, it really is so RAW and Emotional and just a really amazing performance! Such a rare talent to be able to perform with that passion, just insanely inspiring! Thanks for putting your music out man!! Really hits me on a personal level. so thank you so much!
Super humbled to have randomly found this song when I was going thru a manic depressive episode. Was really cool to listen to and calmed me down. Listened on repeat🤙
What is it about bipolar that makes you repeat songs a lot, sometimes in a row. Like I guess I want to stay in that music and feel it longer than the song is. I guess probably nothing to do with bipolar but I am too so I related with you on that.
@@derdoktor206 I’m bipolar and that’s definitely where my relation with the lyrics comes from. The hyper-fixation of repeating songs comes from my adhd though for sure
I found this a few hours ago on Tik Tok and I cannot stop listening. Literally going through your whole discography now. It's so rare to find an artist where you listen to the lyrics and feel like they've taken thoughts straight from your head and poured them into something so beautiful in a way you never could. I feel your music in my soul dude, you're incredible.
Wow I needed this. I thought songs like this were lost. Sometimes things like this aren’t meant to be shared. When I first heard this I thought yeah this one’s for me lol.
Man this just rips right through me, I can't even really describe why. Raw expression of emotion just pours right out. Incredible. Also, i want that guitar.
Just discovered this song this morning and listened to it three times in a row. I think it might be on respect the rest of the day too. Wow this guy is talented.
Ive never felt so connected with a song. It hurts but at the same time I love it so much. Still makes me cry when i listen to it alone in the car and sing along. Thank you for this.
[Verse 1] Kids dressed up like Mormons, not sure if it's irony Double Casamigos hiding in the balcony Send me your location, I'll send you a selfie Babe, this dream I had, it feels like it might ruin me [Pre-Chorus] Everyone's acting like it's so cool Everyone's saying this is so you, ooh [Chorus] There has to be a better shit to give a shit about Instead of wondering what people think about me now The things that I don't know could fill a million fucking houses I never learned to dance [Verse 2] Buying weed on Wilshire, sexting with my therapist Making beats with randos, starting to gеt arrogant They're like, "Boy, you got connеctions now You're really fucking doing it" Oh, come on! [Pre-Chorus] Everyone's acting like it's so cool Everyone's saying this is so you, ooh [Chorus] There has to be a better shit to give a shit about Instead of wondering what people think about me now The things that I don't know could fill a million fucking houses I never learned to dance, I never learned to dance I never learned to dance, yeah
Bro thank you, I thought the first line was kids dressed up like womans. Really turned me off the artist, but the song had such a good vibe. Everyone is entitled to their beliefs but i can't get down with an artist who opens a song swinging at a culture war. i just wanna jam
The guitar playing in this version is so cool. I'm getting a capo. Really inspiring arrangement and it's so paired down and raw and also so rich and soulful.
There hasn’t been a song that’s made me feel something like this in a long time. Never heard of this artist but I have a feeling this is about to be one of my favorite bands of all time
Your voice and words always hit me right in the pit of my heart, got me through too many bad days. I'm plugging along and doing my best, I hope you are too. Much, much love to you from Texas.
🎙️🎸👏 I have recently discovered the music of these two great artists... Cece Coakley and of course the Medium Build... To say that I am simply impressed with their work is even an understatement... Just Great! 🎙️🎸👏
“Sextin’ with my therapist” I lol’d but the dysfunction and humor this song accurately portrays at the things we go through in life, the things we find ourselves wrapped up in..wow. It caught me in the throat, that line, lol.
You've deeply contributed to another artists catalogue of beauty and inspiration with this song. At very least, a deep stitch in the tapestry of creative contribution. This moves me.
I can't even express how much I love your music. I just found it a few days ago, and I can't stop listening. I'm a musician myself, bass player. I swear I would drop everything and move to whatever state you're in just to jam. Your style and writing is infectious to me. Please keep it up
Wow. First time Ive ever heard you and man, the words, the guitar, the feelings in your voice. I'm about to binge everything you got. Thank you for this
I first watched this video when it had 5k views and thought “well I’m just gonna watch this one take off.” this is some fine fine work buddy :) too the moon
Dude, i just instatly fall in love with your music, like, i dont understand how i cant find you before …. Instatly buy a tickets for Amsterdam show, even if me & my wife go to travel half europe for you ❤️
Released a live EP that includes a live version of Never Learned To Dance that's on streaming services!
and it's really good too!!
This is still my favorite
Thank you for saving me❤
amazing. I have no notes. you outclass everything i have ever tried to do. I will study.
plssss release this version to
Leaving this here so every time someone like’s it I can be reminded. Thank you .
This isn't music. This is something else.
I feel like this is one of the types of songs Hunter S. Thompson was referring to. If you listen to this loudly, no matter how long you've been on empty. You'll have another 50 miles in you.
Best comment on this video.
Absolutely
Such a good comment. Where exactly did he say this?
I was gonna comment, but you just nailed it. Now I have 49 miles to go.
He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man
Long shift tonight, hard work, long weekend leading into a longer week. 1am, I chose to come home to this with a beer in hand. Soothes the soul.

happy late birthday, my friend
it's gonna be okay, kid. Promise.
never beg people to be in your life kiddo. im speaking from experience. pick yourself up and carry on.
If your friends suck, you'll find other ones along the way, don't worry. Just avoid toxic relationships.
Learn some guitar or create beats, start a band, join a community (something IRL like skate, art, anything), make like-minded friends, have fun & explore. There's pain AND joy, lots of.
happy late birthday, don't give up, there's good in the world but we all have to make an effort to find it! Ditch those scumbags...

you're never alone, brother.
Human spirit is pretty fucking amazing isn’t it? 🤟🏼

I could tell within milliseconds what I was about to experience just based off the tone. This is purely indescribable
I can’t quit listening to this. I literally can’t quit.
Please put this version on every platform. I love it and listen to it everyday. You have a beautiful mind, and you deserve the best parts of this world. Stay true, stay strong.
Seriously - I would listen every day no doubt, I keep coming back to UA-cam for it
i dont care if you get youtube premium or not, but if you do you can download videos and thats what i did. listen to it everyday on my walk to work. can turn your screen off too while the video plays
I would love to walk past someone and hear them listening to this... u would be late to work cause we'd stop to talk about it

This is the power of real music. Thank you for sharing. I listen to this and think … I get it, enough said. Just keep doing it.
This is an underrated gem. Incredible song 🙏🏻
Coming back to update: month later and this is still a fucking masterpiece. Song hasn’t left my head since I heard it. Emotional as fuck. Well done.
"...better shit to give a shit about..."
Right?!?!
This song is perfect.
This is ten times better than the version on Spotify, just my opinion!
Just a boy and his Jazz Chorus ❤
This is the perfect song to cry to. Though I think I've moved on from crying to straight up wailing. The pain is just so palpable and relatable. He says so much in so few words.

If it makes u feel any better I’ve been crying all day to this
If you wanna ugly cry go listen to ComeOnBack a few times til it hits.

I don't know how this came up in my feed, but damn. You just ripped my heart out, dude. Much respect and love to you.
Glad I'm not the only one getting crazy songs on there feed, I definitely like it bur it was seeming weird
Same here.
Finally youtube doing something right
Same man. Same.

Came here straight from TikTok 😂 what an app
I totally agree. It feels like he's in my head. Another guy that gives me the same feels is Brandon Heart.
Wow I needed this. I thought songs like this were lost. Sometimes things like this aren’t meant to be shared. When I first heard this I thought yeah this one’s for me lol.
Find any new stuff you can share since!?
You don’t understand the grip this song has on me, explains my life pretty clearly. Thanks bro, appreciate the anthem.
Saw this guy at Willawaw in Anchorage randomly a few years ago. He also puts on an amazing live show. Hope you guys get the chance to see him live.
Man this just rips right through me, I can't even really describe why. Raw expression of emotion just pours right out. Incredible. Also, i want that guitar.
The fact that this dude does not have millions of views is insane, this is powerful music, like damn this makes me feel forreal
This song, every time hits me like new all over again.
This is so raw and beautiful. Absolutely my favorite MB moments are just you with your guitar, emotions, and vocals. ❤
This guy, just found him, and he keeps blowing me away. Incredible stuff, man!!!! Honest, raw, sincere, perfect meodies., etc etc.
Man, just fantastic. Thank you.
He doesn’t need this live version on Spotify/apple/etc. They need it… Phenomenal! I wish I found it yesterday…
the guitar tone is so clean oh my
Had me with that first chord progression. This is beautiful. Such a haunting voice. Love it dude.
Just discovered this song this morning and listened to it three times in a row. I think it might be on respect the rest of the day too. Wow this guy is talented.
that guitar tone... chef's kiss
Ive never felt so connected with a song. It hurts but at the same time I love it so much. Still makes me cry when i listen to it alone in the car and sing along. Thank you for this.
Your vocals are so raw and genuine. I love you🥹❤️
This is so fucking good
still coming back to this live version
Cannot. Stop. Watching.
"...there has to be better shit to give a shit about..."
Dude.
Subbed.
I'm in love with this. How beautiful
Love seeing a more stripped down version go hard, def bring this vibe to your future albums.
[Verse 1]
Kids dressed up like Mormons, not sure if it's irony
Double Casamigos hiding in the balcony
Send me your location, I'll send you a selfie
Babe, this dream I had, it feels like it might ruin me
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone's acting like it's so cool
Everyone's saying this is so you, ooh
[Chorus]
There has to be a better shit to give a shit about
Instead of wondering what people think about me now
The things that I don't know could fill a million fucking houses
I never learned to dance
[Verse 2]
Buying weed on Wilshire, sexting with my therapist
Making beats with randos, starting to gеt arrogant
They're like, "Boy, you got connеctions now
You're really fucking doing it" Oh, come on!
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone's acting like it's so cool
Everyone's saying this is so you, ooh
[Chorus]
There has to be a better shit to give a shit about
Instead of wondering what people think about me now
The things that I don't know could fill a million fucking houses
I never learned to dance, I never learned to dance
I never learned to dance, yeah
thank you
Bro thank you, I thought the first line was kids dressed up like womans. Really turned me off the artist, but the song had such a good vibe. Everyone is entitled to their beliefs but i can't get down with an artist who opens a song swinging at a culture war. i just wanna jam
Everything from the vocals, instrument, colors and visual is beautiful!
This is my absolute favorite song right now
Wow. Artists like you are few and far between - unique, passionate, simple in the best way. All you need is your voice and the guitar.
The guitar playing in this version is so cool. I'm getting a capo. Really inspiring arrangement and it's so paired down and raw and also so rich and soulful.
We’re u able to figure out the chords ?
What guitar is he playing?

this is beautiful

Very well said🙌🙌
It reads to me like "flirting with the idea of getting better while simultaneously undermining it"
Damn. Ripped my heart out.
I’ve been writing and playing my whole life……. Somehow we’re doing very similar things …. and seem to feel the same …… thank you ! From Iowa
Seventh listen since this popped up in my feed this morning.
You won’t see this but my wife and I love this. Sending love from California. ❤
This should be the version you are sending people to download everywhere. Your songs are always better this way. It's actually wild.
Beautifully written, well executed. Claps to you my friend. 🎉
I. Just here before his fame gets out of hand. 1 in a billion unique level, such good lungs ... style and all of it .
just heard this for the first time….wow…..his expressions, his feel, it’s just so real and heartfelt what he’s playing ❤
Damn!! So raw and powerful. Why can’t recordings like these be pushed and promoted to the mainstream. Amazing
You've deeply contributed to another artists catalogue of beauty and inspiration with this song. At very least, a deep stitch in the tapestry of creative contribution. This moves me.
Had to listen to it again.. right after the first time. That one hits.
My husband is absolutely in love with this band and this song... Just wow...
been ahile since i got the chills from a new song,......thank you.
Just found this and it’s been on repeat! Bless up brother!
Oh I love this so much
I can't even express how much I love your music. I just found it a few days ago, and I can't stop listening. I'm a musician myself, bass player. I swear I would drop everything and move to whatever state you're in just to jam. Your style and writing is infectious to me. Please keep it up
Unreal…. I love home commanding you are is such a raw setting. 10/10. What a song!
These "naked version" are so heartfelt and straight to the core. Hugs from Italy.
I love Medium Build..! This song speaks to me on so many levels.. thank you.
This song definitely hits home... So relatable
Wow. First time Ive ever heard you and man, the words, the guitar, the feelings in your voice. I'm about to binge everything you got. Thank you for this
you got something here! keep it up!
really love this...reminds me a lot of Corey Kilgannon. guitar tone very nice too 🔥🔥
I can't stop coming back to this
I feel like I’ve been waiting my whole life for this one song. Really needed to find this one.
Some David Bazan and Jim James vibes. Love it, thank you!
Congratulations on a wonderfully inspiring, beautiful performance!
I have watched this so many times.
Amazing writing style and energy that didn’t feel fabricated at all. Actual art from this one ☝️
"there has to be better shit to give a shit about, instead of wondering what people think about me now"
One of the best lines in any song, ever.
The magic 1 man, 1 guitar & emotions create ❤
I love this line "send me your location"❤❤❤
This particular version eats at me in a way that isn't normal feeling
This os AWESOME! Greetings From Brasil
Beautiful and powerful performance. So happy to have discovered this
I first watched this video when it had 5k views and thought “well I’m just gonna watch this one take off.” this is some fine fine work buddy :) too the moon
Im hooked on all the live performances.
I love the way he moves. He feels every strum in his body
I love the way he wrote this song and told a story
Dude, i just instatly fall in love with your music, like, i dont understand how i cant find you before …. Instatly buy a tickets for Amsterdam show, even if me & my wife go to travel half europe for you ❤️
U hit so many heart strings through your music
lovely!
