sometimes you just have a crappy week and then randomly discovers a song like this. for a moment you remember that life is still beautiful. there are still songs i'd love that i haven't heard yet.
I'd probably change "week" to "(another) decade", but that was one spot on comment... that last part especially. Maybe I'd change "moment" too though, and say for some hours or days, depending on what you're forced to remember or face/endure instead each time. But that's what life feels like in the end, a moment, or a string of moments, I guess. Indeed, nothing is for granted, better not forget to enjoy as much music/art as possible, after facing each bad or boring moment. Glad UA-cam still helps with that.
Standing alone out in the road Feeling the stars closing around my throat When you said you’d had enough, out of character and out of love I was shaken, I built my world around you If we meet again one day I will be in different and you’ll be the same Moving mountains, babe Just to get your way (If we meet again one day There at the sound of you saying my name I’ll feel nothing, babe Boy that got away Boy that got away) No more bad blood, no more goodbyes I’m ripping the bandaid off of my wounded pride In every street we walked before, the fury’s fading from my core Open my eyes in a nеw horizon and ride (Oooo) now that you don’t take my breath away (Oooo) now that I can hold it diving deepеr it’ll be ok Now that I don’t need your love when I’m sinking
“If we meet again one day I’ll be indifferent and you’ll be the same” the way my jaw dropped at that line Edit: ok I listened to the whole album and now it’s on repeat its great
Woah, I was commenting that I thought this was simply incredible, when I suddenly realised you JUST released the full album! Congrats on the release! Best start of any weekend
This song is such a testament to the freedom we feel long after the dark night of the soul, after we’ve crawled our way to a sense of our own worth for perhaps the first time. Loving this track.
I subscribed to your channel after 5 seconds of listening to this song. That is the tune and message I really need now as a new mother. First months of baby's life are challenging and sometimes it seems there are no other things except long nighttime breastfeeding or soothing our daughter. But when I discover songs like this early in the morning I remember that it is just a period, life is bigger and still full of new interesting things ahead. Together with our growing daughter! Thank you Rowena! Greetings from a small Portuguese town Corroios! ❤❤❤

just woke up from a nap, discovered this after listening to a beautiful song by Paul Weller. I go along through each song, living it's just hard at this moment..., but I know that music is here to help us, so I'm glad to share these feelings
It's such a good song and I'm completely blown away by the video clip, like I would 100% watch a movie based on that. The light, the aesthetic, camera work - all perfect, every bit of soul put in it is clearly evident, same is with the song. You have inspired me a lot for my own film project that I'm working on at the moment. I thank you dearly, Rowena.
Rowena Wise , this song is amazing. The places where one expects a higher note there is an amazing lower one. I just love it. So very beautiful. Congratulations on such a beautiful work of art and sharing it.
Missing so many people from my time in New Zealand…this popped up and something felt like an old friend. I know you’re not a Kiwi, but the music and lyrics hold an expansive feeling…like when I hear Aldous Harding…anyway…couldn’t sleep and this popped up…had a wee cry and feel a little more at peace ❤…Looking forward to listening to more of your journey 🌬️🌾
I can kind of relate to your thought and feelings. I was born in Saga, Japan but most of my life my family and I lived overseas. Rowena’s songs bring back lots of innocent and happy childhood days of my life.

Oh yes, great observation! ❤ And sometimes I hear Phoebe Bridgers too like in "In for the kill" but maybe it's like something from all boygenius girls' spirits together, I really can't explain what I feel and why (this song maybe has something similar to "Savior complex" by Phoebe?) 😂 She's so talented ❤ I'm sure she will be very famous soon 🥰
@@rowenawise haha awesome you replied! It's an Irish language station in Dublin, Radio na Life. My show is on Thursdays from 7-8pm Irish time. Such a great song :)
This has the effortless character of a Kristin Hersh song, or something. You can feel the strength of its conception, and it feels like it just rolled out like a storm.
Saw this in my recommended list, and I got the strangest sense of certainty that I'd like it before even clicking. I was right, this is magnificent. You have another fan.
Great song! It has a nostalgic feel to it and is a slow burn, yet despite it being those things it has a decent drive forward having more uptempo feel to it than you'd expect. This is not easy to achieve, this is great writing.
arrived here as a result of a short detour from BIGSOUND 2024, so glad I did, beautiful sound, song, voice, lyrics & that country sure looks familiar - thank you Rowena Wise & team who made it all possible!
One day soon, I will rarely think of you. And when I see you, I will feel nothing. Not from a place of apathy, but because I’ve healed, moved on and realized I deserved better than anything that you could ever offer me. You’re just some person. My love for you was what made you seem so special. that’s it. 🖤
Great song!!! We live and learn, and it ain't easy at timds. But, the lyrics show that wisdom was gained, as well as strength of heart--kinda paradoxical. Thank you for creating and sharing this wonderful, true-to-life art!
Thanks - I know exactly what you mean! Paradoxical is a good way of putting it. I think paradox plays a part in people's lives more than they realise hey.
Funny how a song can come into your life at just the right time...just when you need to hear it the most. What a beautiful, melancholy song. Just what the doctor ordered
This is one of those 'it sneaks up on you' uploads. At first, there is this 'Oh? A rough demo.' Then, and after a few moments have passed, you may quietly think a 'What's going on here?' Quickly, and after that last thought, there's a solid 'Oh? This is such a beautiful and touches the listener song.' This is a sneaky upload. 🌸
@@rowenawise Wonderful! Wishing to you and to the artists/friends/communities which surround you a wonderful Summer* (oops! a wonderful Winter) and more. 🌻
UA-cam recommended this song to me and I loved the cover of the video, very similar to what I see and hear (very 60's/70's). I played it and it started playing like a storm. It was a perfect combination that leads me to see that I find my favorite artists and music in such a magical way. ❤
I'm yet another "not sure how I got here" new listener who really enjoyed this track. Maybe you baked the UA-cam algorithm a really nice cake or something?
Heard the song on the radio at night, it took a whole day for me to find it. But definetly worth it. Can't belive it's your debut! Hoping all the best ❤
Hi to everyone new here! 👋🏻 www.youtube.com/@rowenawise?sub_confirmation=1
When an algorithm hits you with this gem, you know you have a taste.
Thank you!
@@fastslow553 sure but he's complimenting our taste, not his 😇
it seems good taste in movies as well
hell yeah

there are still songs i'd love that i haven't heard yet.
I know right! I get that all the time. I’m so glad this song was that for you. Thank you 🙏

@@rowenawise está sendo para mim também neste exato momento.
Just seeing if you’re having a better week my friend ❤
wait until you hear Alice Boman
Standing alone out in the road
Feeling the stars closing around my throat
When you said you’d had enough, out of character and out of love
I was shaken, I built my world around you
If we meet again one day
I will be in different and you’ll be the same
Moving mountains, babe
Just to get your way
(If we meet again one day
There at the sound of you saying my name
I’ll feel nothing, babe
Boy that got away
Boy that got away)
No more bad blood, no more goodbyes
I’m ripping the bandaid off of my wounded pride
In every street we walked before, the fury’s fading from my core
Open my eyes in a nеw horizon and ride
(Oooo) now that you don’t take my breath away
(Oooo) now that I can hold it diving deepеr it’ll be ok
Now that I don’t need your love when I’m sinking
“If we meet again one day I’ll be indifferent and you’ll be the same” the way my jaw dropped at that line
Edit: ok I listened to the whole album and now it’s on repeat its great
I'm afraid i'll be the one who's stucked to the love of the past, while she's indifferent and out of love or care for me...
@@enfirst Same here. I think I am simply too nostalgic to let things go that easily. Perhaps I'm romantic that way, but boy is it a curse.
Woah, I was commenting that I thought this was simply incredible, when I suddenly realised you JUST released the full album! Congrats on the release! Best start of any weekend
Yeah while sonic family is out in the world now! Thanks for the lovely comment. Hope you enjoy the album :)
@@rowenawise Anytime! I love every single one of the songs, which is kinda rare haha. Incredible lyricism!
Thank you for the music
This song is such a testament to the freedom we feel long after the dark night of the soul, after we’ve crawled our way to a sense of our own worth for perhaps the first time. Loving this track.
No idea why this hit my algorithm. Very appreciative it did. Lovely tune.
Thank you! The mysterious algorithm strikes again. Glad you dig x
The lyrics, the music video, the voice, the singing, the instrumental, everything is PERFECT in this video!
Thanks Yt algorithm! And thank you Rowena!

This song captures the feeling of freedom so well.
What a beautiful song. I look forward to listening to 'Senseless Acts of Beauty' in its entirety.
Hey thanks! 🙏 hope you dig all the other songs too :)
What the world needs now is Rowena, sweet Rowena.
Wish this song was in a Netflix movie...then would be a hit...
I'm getting addicted, thanks youtube algorithm
Goodness, what a treasure your music is. Thank you!
Ooo thanks🙏 Appreciate your kind words!

Me toooo x
The description of how this song came about is beautiful
So right. It's really scary to let go and face the fact that from now on you depend only on yourself
Not sure how I got here, but this is one beautiful chorus. Wish I had written it.
Amazing, video and incredible song. Such a beautiful, moving piece of music. Thank you.
UA-cam just recommended this to me and I just fell in love with the voice, the music... so perfect.
Came here to say just this ☺️💖
