I'll always listen to something new from Carter. Every song is great. The shorts are great, but the actual music from Carter is always main playlist material.
I love how “I should be harder to kill” feels like a more inspirational statement as a song progresses. You go from seeking them out and them “killing you” to recognizing they shouldn’t have that power over you.
Same. For some reason im looking always for deeper meanings in his songs His songs are fire and well made, He mus't be inteligent, i cant belive his stupid songs are just stupid songs.
So true 😅, I also interpret the statement "I should be harder to kill" as the memory of the speaker as well as the affection should have been harder for the subject to get rid off, following through with this statement, the speaker could be seen to have been 'living' through the affection and memory of the subject and dependent on them.
As corny as this might sound, I'm a 60 year old guy that is just learning to cope with my life after the heartbreaking end of a 14 year relationship and I don't think any song has ever spoken to exactly what I was feeling like this one does. Thanks Carter. Keep making people smile and feel good. This town ain't big enough for two.
Honestly, as funny as Carter is, I prefer his more serious stuff. Like this song? A post break up song which is angry but not malevolent? Perfect, no notes.
Thank you for making an excellent song. So much can go wrong with physical problems. This is why we should adapt our skin to be more resilient to physical injury by hitting ourselves with rocks of slowly increasing weight.
Gradually develop an immunity to cataclysmic meteroid impacts. Like that masked hero in the princess bride movie after the villain switched the goblet, "both meteors were dinosaur extincters, but I developed an immunity."
I'm still holding out hope for my conscious to be uploaded into a robot version of me. I don't want this meat popsicle to melt with me still attached to it...
My life has been changing drastically (maybe not for the better but who knows). A couple of enormous disappointments have left me completely defeated. Like not wanting to crawl out of bed, can't face anyone I love, feel like I'm being abandoned, type of defeat. I thought I was stronger than this. I really thought I was harder to kill. Turns out I'm not an indestructible cockroach, I'm a tiny jelly filled caterpillar easily missed, easily stepped on. Man, I thought I was harder to kill. I think I'll take up karate.
Dying is actually really difficult, believe me, I know from experience. As long as you have a moment, spend it on what makes you happy. Don't just feel better. Don't just get used to feeling shitty. Try to spend your time as best as you can, and I hope, for everyone, it gets better. It's hard for everyone right now. Things are tough all over.
Learn Karate, buy yourself a Toyota Corolla if you don't already drive one, learn how to hog tie. These are skills that will help you immensely when the aliens invade! In seriousness, it's hard as hell, but keep going forward. Take this from someone who was emotionally dead for years. It's not easy to see the way forward and get better, but I did it. If I could survive and eventually find my happiness, anyone can. It takes time though, so don't rush it.
Lots of bad stuff happened to you and you think that makes you a squish able caterpillar? I feel like it's the other way round: that you've got through all if that and now you're recovering ❤
This album means so much to me. Life hasn't been good to me lately, and I haven't been good to life for a long time. This has smoothed everything out. It's like new wave and country and so goddamm honest... thanks, Carter. This is my redemption soundtrack.
This man is a true musical genius providing positive energy and tunes that put a smile in your heart. The establishment will never allow this... but they can't stop raw talent from bursting through the barriers. Rock on Carter. Rock on.
I've been blasting this for about 48 hours now and I'm not being hyperbolic when I say I think you've made this generation's This Year by the Mountain Goats.
I’m genuinely grateful that you went on to make a full song of this one. Your shorts are always musical quality, and hilarious. But, this one, makes me feel something in my bones I can’t get out of the radio.
We're all just struggling through together life together. Do what makes you happy, dont hold on to hate, let go of people who dont care. Deep meanings can be found in silly concepts, pain hidden in smiles. Carter you capture this perfectly in your art.
It's things like this that make me think more and more that art isn't optional, it's so needed so that we can see ourselves and understand the world better. Sorry for the deep comment but it wasn't until this that I knew what I was needing and that's worth everything
Thank you so much you helped me get past a part of my book I was stuck on, and I realized it was because I had the wrong character as the main one. All thanks to listening to this song on loop and realizing this was way too may near death experiences for a supporting character.
so many people are enjoying your shorts and missing that you've released a sincerely lovely song, you're promoting your music in such an understated way. i love the shorts and the full songs
You put this, Napoleon, Arizona, and Nashville on an album it wouldn’t leave my record player. We should all be vibing at a Carter show right now. Get Carter!
This song, baked Alaska and Arizona. Just wow. Your parody or fun songs are amazing, but those three are just perfect. Catchy, amazing melodies vocal wise and the guitar melodies. I love you bro.
I just saw him last night play in Detroit!!! He was amazing and he looked so genuinely happy to be on stage I'll admit I didn't really know who he was but now I'm looking up his songs and listening to them and this one is my favorite
There is something of the absurd in this universe. I came here because of the Dirtman. And I did not have the dirt on me to give. He has taken me down, tore me asunder. I sit here dead fresh tears on my face as man lay his soul bare for the world. Who hurt you so and how is it you have shared your pain to me one who has not lived your life how do you paint so vivid a picture in so few words. Thank you. 😢
Holy crap I'm early to a Carter Vail video, I just wanna say I really love your music, both the funny and the serious, it's all bangers. I hope you continue to make great music☮
Man, I once left a negative comment on a video on your IG like 3 years ago and it’s been eating me up. Something like “this random shit is only cute for a second” but now I’m on your page daily to see what amazing random things you come up with. No idea how you do it. Shit and piss is even good because of how hard that beat goes. Anyways. Love your stuff and this is fantastic.
I love the use of imagery and figurative language! The hunting dog and rabbit lines were awesome! The story is relatable, but the lyrics are creative! It's great!
I have never wanted a random internet creator to hit big more than I have this guy. His songs are awesome, he's got solid talent, and his songs are hilarious in a relatable way. Come to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I will buy tickets.
The juxtaposition of this channel is crazy, going from dirt man, to Nashville to never seen my butthole to harder to kill and I love every single piece you drop carter ♥️ keep doing what your doing
the dirt boy has become the dirt man
I know, I had no idea he was the IG reel guy. I was like... how much did this breakup hurt him?
You're a genius... The fish will spare you when they come. 😂
I'll always listen to something new from Carter. Every song is great. The shorts are great, but the actual music from Carter is always main playlist material.
💯 I can't wait for the album to drop
It's nutty, ain't it? Bud sounds like a factory for producing hit Singles.
Same
I didn’t even know he made full songs. I’ve been following him for a week now lol.
Its a goofy song for most of us...but for emo girls the word kill is in the name and there is reverb...so its romantic.
I love how “I should be harder to kill” feels like a more inspirational statement as a song progresses.

His songs are fire and well made, He mus't be inteligent, i cant belive his stupid songs are just stupid songs.
For example in my place "I should be harder to kill" can mean i should not get "i
infatuated" so fast and it fits soo good to the rest of the song

I took it as a dream like sonf and how im always so weak in dreams lol
the “and you cant come” hits sooo hard

The pure emotion in "AND YOU CAN'T COME!" is what gets me.

this channel is massively under subbed. talented as hell.
Real
I have decided to help fix that.
holy cow, where did this guy come from and why am i only finding out about him now? I am certainly alerting my friends with taste.
That is about to change. When old, out-of-touch people like me are becoming aware of these amazing songs, it means he’s going viral.
Holy shit... hes learning karate.
You already know the aliens aren’t standing a chance
Aliens don't know karate
no karate's made on earth
I also don’t know karate
But i think that I could learn
Shit now I have to binge watch his shorts to get there, oh well
Those aliens are fucked now
Honestly, as funny as Carter is, I prefer his more serious stuff. Like this song? A post break up song which is angry but not malevolent? Perfect, no notes.
Agreed
Carter really caught us off guard with a song not about donkeys making paper airplanes. I absolutely love it!!
Same here he sounds so fucking good🙏🙏

I love how he looks when he's done. He's just like "I think that was pretty good! Yeah, yeah, I nailed it. 😎"
Spread the word -he deserves to be super famous -so much high quality music!!!
I love how it goes from soft and mellow to hardcore affirmations
I've been blasting this for about 48 hours now and I'm not being hyperbolic when I say I think you've made this generation's This Year by the Mountain Goats.
Brother, this song brought tears to my eyes. Thank you CV for your gift to mankind ❤
i love the look of joy and pride in carter's eyes. you've worked so hard and the fruits of that hard work will pay off.
I’m genuinely grateful that you went on to make a full song of this one. Your shorts are always musical quality, and hilarious. But, this one, makes me feel something in my bones I can’t get out of the radio.
I'll be walking around singing this forever now. So good!
Wow it turns out the dirt guy can sing very well, liking this stuff more and more
Gonna be real. I jam out hard to every new song by this guy. Pls god don’t stop man
We're all just struggling through together life together. Do what makes you happy, dont hold on to hate, let go of people who dont care. Deep meanings can be found in silly concepts, pain hidden in smiles. Carter you capture this perfectly in your art.
I love how you can see him realize it’s a generational banger more and more each chorus. Mans knows his own talent

This guy should be so much bigger then he is, his music is so on point .
I really like this one, great pop rock tune, the lyrics are good, too.
Love the vibe and I can already tell that chorus is going to be getting stuck in my head 👌👌
Bro has a vibe that just makes me wanna be his friend
4 months after the break up and the dirt man made me smile on a way to relatable song. Man keep up with the work your a legend
You put this, Napoleon, Arizona, and Nashville on an album it wouldn’t leave my record player. We should all be vibing at a Carter show right now. Get Carter!
Hold my beer.
Those are my favs too!!
There's an album coming in September
I love this SO much….I NEEDED this song in my life rn, cannot thank you enough ❤️
I'm so obsessed with this song lately -- I'm listening to it a few times a day.
2:22 And it was right then I realized... this is a song about breaking up with an alien. Really hits in the feels
Have to say, Carter got the right combination of weird meme tunes and emotional pop bangers. Absolutely slaps son, good job
Such a great musician.
I don't know why but your songs always bring me nostalgia for the early 2010s for when my life was simpler
its because of the Killers vibes. I heckin love the Killers
the music has a really 80's vibe in a good way plus the facial expressions are PRICELESS!
This song, baked Alaska and Arizona. Just wow. Your parody or fun songs are amazing, but those three are just perfect. Catchy, amazing melodies vocal wise and the guitar melodies. I love you bro.
Impeccable vibes. This thing is going on my summer playlist
this is going straight into the summer playlist
1:04 the “i should be harder to kill” in the background is so perfect!! keep up the good work!! :D
I just saw him last night play in Detroit!!! He was amazing and he looked so genuinely happy to be on stage I'll admit I didn't really know who he was but now I'm looking up his songs and listening to them and this one is my favorite
This is such an absolute banger, I've been listening to it non effin stop!!!!
“Harder to kill” is killing it! ❤
You can tell just how much he loves making music and the joy is contagious :)
I love this so much. Came out during a breakup of an 8 year relationship and the lyrics are perfect.
Dude I'm so blown away by how good all of this guys stuff is. I think its only a matter of time before he makes a huge hit.
Hey yo, this is actually a freakin' BOP.
Carter is a fantastic musician. The shorts are fun but, his serious music is nothing short of fantastic
Literally awesome. This is such a beautiful cathartic song, and it's so fantastic to see that emotion evolve in the video.
Thanks for showing everyone (and me) that we can do silly and serious stuff as the same artist without having to compartmentalise 🙏🏻
Summer anthem 2024
Nostalgia intensifies with each note
Dude! keep it up this is a bop!

Thats such a pretty background
Its a summer jam that everyone will love and then listen to it a second time and have a few WTF moments only to jam to it for the rest of the summer.

I've been listening to this so much, it's so freaking good.
