I am into metal songs by slipknot and motorhead, but there is something about your voice and especially this song, it touches you deeply it really makes you think about things and confront your buried secrets, your insecurities. Anyways, great work, keep going and all the best!
Same. Metal head right here. Heard this dude in the Kitchen I work at and bam I was like who is this! I honestly thought it was going to be an older American dude with a silver beard from his other songs.
I love this song so much. Every time I listen to it, it reminds me of my grandpa that passed away two years ago. Which is ironic because he wrote this song about his grandfather. I wish this song would get out more, it is simply amazing.
[Verse 1] Hold your head up high You were born too old and are afraid to die 'Cause the light is fading out of your eyes I'll give it all, I'll give it all Come on feet don't fail me now 'Cause I'll fall too hard if I hit the ground And these worn out souls are all broken now I'll give it all, I'll give it all [Chorus] Mmmm I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid That I'm falling apart Mmmm If I don't ever see you again, oh Where do I start So come along So come along So come along [Verse 2] Battle deep into the night 'Til you leave the center, the shore behind And the great white peaks of new islands rise You'll see it all, you'll see it all And all these memories come to pass In a 1965 photograph And I'll never know how you made me laugh I'll tell them all, I'll tell them all [Chorus] Mmmm I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid That I'm falling apart Mmmm If I don't see you ever again, oh Where do I start Hey Hey Hey Hey, come on stay [Chorus] Ooh I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid That I'm falling apart Ooh If I don't see you ever again Oh where do i start.
I don't know if you are reading this mr Courtney but I just want say that you are a gift of nature,you my friend our magical,your songs are nothing short of miraculous,you are the greatest,thank you so fucking much for choosing singing and writing as a profession and being a shining artist that you are,and I know this somewhere in the future I will meet you my brother and thank you for being barns Courtney
Found his music a little over a year ago, seen him live and walked down the aisle to one of his songs! Love his sound so much (also, his pandora ad is adorable)
this song just makes you think about what you have done, where you have been, the people you have met and the people who stayed,even through the rough times. thank you
The feels i love this song. I can relate to a lot of ur songs. I love ur band and im defenitantly one of those fans that will stay with ur music until the end.
wow! I absolutely love and can't get enough of Barns Courtney and Kaleo!!! You guys are FABULOUS!!! Keep up the heart n raw soul you put into your musical can hear it. It keeps me listening. I stumbled across both by accident. So the trend continues; all the things in my life that I love the most come to me quite by accident or no planning on my part.
I was suggested this song by a friend to remember the good times in my life. I feel as though some burdens are taken of my shoulders, and I can give a good cry to release that pent up burdens I carry.
Good song when your spirit is so worn out at the end of the day that you can't muster up the will to fake a smile when you try to think of something good. We all need those times to feel hopeless or broken. It shows us how much sweeter the good times are. I'm having a tough time now but I know it'll pass. I may be afraid of falling apart without being able to put myself back together but I know it will pass
I've been waiting for a musician of a new breed, I've just found them and you offer something special. Your work is unique and I love how you keep to YOUR style, no one else's. Your work is of the highest level and deserves more credit. Fantastic work, really keep it up. Never stop dude. Don't fall into the dark side of the industry. Please don't make songs just to hit the charts for a month or so like everyone else to roll in a sum, continue making songs that'll be remembered and that's exactly what you do, keep at it!
As one gives it all , I throw it all away . Wow , as you look at it that way it is an inspirational song or a depressing diatribe. Depends for me on how my day went and what I pour into my glass today or this evening . Thank you for making me think about it , kind of thirsty and hungry and wide awake but going to bed full and sleepy with an under pillowed bottle of BrandNamedRade
Please don't ever stop making music. Oh & please play the United States soon. In fact, drop in & play at my Coffee Shop & your drinks, food & room will be on the house 😎

Metal that’s a yikes
I love this song so much. Every time I listen to it, it reminds me of my grandpa that passed away two years ago. Which is ironic because he wrote this song about his grandfather. I wish this song would get out more, it is simply amazing.
To date this is the saddest and most beautiful song I’ve heard
[Verse 1]
Hold your head up high
You were born too old and are afraid to die
'Cause the light is fading out of your eyes
I'll give it all, I'll give it all
Come on feet don't fail me now
'Cause I'll fall too hard if I hit the ground
And these worn out souls are all broken now
I'll give it all, I'll give it all
[Chorus]
Mmmm
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
That I'm falling apart
Mmmm
If I don't ever see you again, oh
Where do I start
So come along
So come along
So come along
[Verse 2]
Battle deep into the night
'Til you leave the center, the shore behind
And the great white peaks of new islands rise
You'll see it all, you'll see it all
And all these memories come to pass
In a 1965 photograph
And I'll never know how you made me laugh
I'll tell them all, I'll tell them all
[Chorus]
Mmmm
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
That I'm falling apart
Mmmm
If I don't see you ever again, oh
Where do I start
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey, come on stay
[Chorus]
Ooh
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
That I'm falling apart
Ooh
If I don't see you ever again
Oh where do i start.
I'm gonna read this and pretend I dont know every lyric of his
Thanks
You mean Bridge?
Paddle deep into the night
' Til you leave the scent of the shore behind
Well I'm Proud To say I'm going to be one of his early fans
me too
same!
I'm only gonna become his fan when he has at least 10 million views
that's sad.
Same

@@aranward3540 why did I laugh at this?
this is the most beautiful thing I've heard in a long time.
Cant tell if this is more Johnny Cash or Leonard Cohen but hot damn is it GOOD!
ShadyPelican can we say a healthy mix?
It's 100 percent Barns Courtney
Got The Answer Right.
smexy

I just discovered your music while watching SAFE. I can't stop playing it. Haunting, beautiful, addictive.
I am so thankful I was able to find this guy! A lot of other people could not say the same.

I am 60 and have not heard a voice like his in decades. I can not get enough oh his music.
Heard this on the tv show pure genius and I had to find it.. it wasn't easy... totally in love with this.
Okajevo Onome I couldn't place where I knew this song from, thanks!
Lindsey Wigand totally awesome song
What show did you hear it on?
this so touching because i lost my grandpa just after i was born so this reminds me of all the picture's of him.
I remember this song my dad use to song this to me when he was in service now I miss him everytime I listen to it you did good dad
I just sat here after it ended and felt things. thank you.
I hope I'm not the only one crying
You definitely need more recognition.
Wuss...lol
Rodney Ekstrom
Who do you think you are?
99%
He does deserve more recognition. He has a great voice.
Dream camed true ;)
Heard Barns Courtney on Conan just now. I'm impressed. Voice, keyboards, guitar, drums. Looking forward to the first album.
i dunno why but this song and the way he sings it reminds me of Johnny Cash
samee
True but with ALOT less Bible bashing.
Probably because it sounds very close to I Hung My Head.
I love this guy so much to make my friends to listen to his all songs!
Good honest music - man this is just so good.
It's been a while since I love a musician. I'm in love with your voice and music, I'm so glad that I found you.

I was suggested this song by a friend to remember the good times in my life. I feel as though some burdens are taken of my shoulders, and I can give a good cry to release that pent up burdens I carry.
Barn’s Courtney IS the best! I love all of his songs and he’s so much fun during interviews. The guy is incredibly intelligent too!
