I dont understand it, every single time Ive heard this song since its day of release Ive gotten goosebumps and to the edge of tears just from the sad vocals and the massive explosion of instrumental beauty at the end. I dont listen to it as much as I should, this is a song I savour so when im alone I can listen to it and really experience the music. Cherub by Ball Park Music is an emotional rollercoaster I will ride until the day I die and it will always make me cry.
The fact that songs like this are beautiful to so many people means we have solidarity in the pain and beauty of life. I get overwhelmed by love and empathy for all beings.
Best song Ive heard in a very, very long time. Just magic. First time i heard it was on Triple J Like a Version and I was late for work because i couldnt leave the song unfinished and had to sit outside in my car listening to it until the end. My colleagues walked past looking at me strangely whilst sat in my car, wondering what the hell i was doing. Definitely worth the verbal warning from my boss for being late. Absolute masterpiece.
It feels like an evolution of Here Comes The Sun by the Beatles but I love it much more. It has such honesty and that always comes with a depth of feeling and emotion. Beautiful! I love music! Life is beautiful! and have a good day :)
My daughter is two and a half and requests 'butterfly song' every night before bed. The first time she asked I wasn't sure what it meant and then a few hours later it dawned on me. Thanks for this beautiful unconventional lullaby guys
This song wraps up the feeling of growing and improving as a person, feeling those growing pains and that white knuckled ride along the way, then looking back on it all relieved and with a smile on your face that you found a way to get through Just beautiful
I first heard a song by you guys in 2013, and then my online Australian friend told me to listen to Sad Rude Future Dude (thanks Danielle). Can't believe it's been 7 years since; I'm so glad you're still releasing music to this day. I'm probably the only Macedonian who listens to you by the way 😅
This is my favourite ever song to come out of Australia. Has finally knocked off Blood by the Middle East and My Happiness by Powderfinger. Such a beautiful song.
One of the best songs I've ever experienced. And I've heard a lot of good ones in my 64 years. Y'all ever make it to Melbourne, let me know. Love to fix y'all breakfast on the Mornington Peninsula.
This song reminds me of the one I've lost romantically speaking, the one that got away but it calms the darker thoughts about sad memories because it is such a vibrant and truly beautiful song
Lyrics Staying at the same hotel, in different rooms Mine is the one with the fork tongue sticking out And when we come face to face, been swimming in shame Just playing my games, I just wanna be someone's pet Cool name Far away from here, there is a notice flapping In the breeze for me, along with the notion that I Changed too much, maybe not enough I don't wanna weigh you down, no It's happened in your neighborhood 7 AM, it stopped in the tracks for some reason Now everybody knows my name, it's all dripping in blood And leaving a stranger's taste in your mouth Cool name Far away from here, there is a notice flapping In the breeze for me, along with the notion that I Changed too much, maybe not enough I don't wanna weigh you down, no Happiness weighs a tonne, it's all speckled in luck And the heaviest fog, I never could pick it up I'd be staring at the stars, dispelling our words And waving their wands at me, I am the chosen one Cool name Far away from here, there is a notice flapping In the breeze for me, along with the notion that I Changed too much, maybe not enough I don't wanna weigh you down, no Have I changed too much? Maybe not enough I don't wanna weigh you down
A friend of mine took his life to this song, and made us all watch this clip at his funeral. So I dont know how I feel about it anymore 😔 In a way it makes me wish sad songs dont exist, because all they do is feed into someones depression and momentarily dark mental state. I know its artistic expression and Im sure if he didnt raise my attention to the lyrics in this song I would feel differently. But with lines like "Happiness weighs a tonne, I could never pick it up" and most noticeable the lines "I dont want to weigh you down" repeated throughout, including being the last line... all I hear now is a suicide song 😔 I truly hope others do not feel the same way as he did listening to this song. Its not healthy, you are not "Chosen" to be free in the stars because you cant find happiness, and you are NOT weighing others down. 😓
juliana you have a beautiful name and thanks for your candid comment. It is true what you have said and I love the way you have expressed it. There is an honesty about the lyrics and what you are saying. Depression sucks.... You sound like a beautiful loving friend...
I get where you're coming from about sad songs, but I don't think they feed into a person's mental state. Rather, when I'm in the deepest darkest pit of depression, a song like this can be a friend in the gloom, with whom I can reach an understanding without speaking and can cry to without judgement. I'm really sorry about your friend, I hope this song gave him comfort in his struggles, however brief.
For me this song speaks to the zeitgeist, the spirit thats in the air right now or at least its building growing up from the earth below and the cosmos And i think its going t ocome soon a changing of the tides at least in brisbane but maybe wider?
It's about when you aren't feeling your best and not wanting to be a burden on those close to you who u love and care for. New journeys that bring personal growth and change
Me: 🙁
Ball Park Music: 🦋

This might just be the most loveliest song in the world

@@hamishlambert6550 dam man. nice way to put a feeling into multiple emotions! Such a great song too.. we need more chill in the world
might? You mean *is* ?
It's simply beautiful

First few times I hear the song, and it feels like it has been apart of me my whole life.
It feels like an evolution of Here Comes The Sun by the Beatles but I love it much more. It has such honesty and that always comes with a depth of feeling and emotion. Beautiful! I love music! Life is beautiful! and have a good day :)

Dang, my soul is aching after taking this one in. Outdoing and elevating yourselves each time my loves.
This song wraps up the feeling of growing and improving as a person, feeling those growing pains and that white knuckled ride along the way, then looking back on it all relieved and with a smile on your face that you found a way to get through
Just beautiful
The ending is just so perfect - slowly winding up the fuzz to reach that climactic final chord followed by its echo and decay. Pure genius!
i absolutely love the song but the ending sort of ruins it for me - interesting you think it's great

This is my favourite ever song to come out of Australia. Has finally knocked off Blood by the Middle East and My Happiness by Powderfinger. Such a beautiful song.
Definitely one of their best. And that is saying alot. What a beautiful gift to the world
What a song. The colour grading of this video is on point. So beautiful and serene.
I get major 'Here Comes The Sun' vibes. George would've been proud.
Definitely has a beatlesque feel, perhaps on the the white album or abbey road.
Ok.
That’s allll I hear
Has a unique sound to me...not sure why everyone has to pigeon hole and compare original songs to others when they're nothing alike...
Triple jjj brought me here. First time I heard this, I was hooked.
Just heard it for the first time on the triple J hottest 100, sums up last year. Nice.
Going through the top 5 and so far this is the best of the bunch.
I take it all back
@@Alpha_7227 That was the first time I heard this song too, and I liked it right away.
Ball park makes me nostalgic of my early 20s in Brisbane 🦋
My whole body got goosebumps towards the end of the song... just amazing 💕
One of the best songs I've ever experienced. And I've heard a lot of good ones in my 64 years. Y'all ever make it to Melbourne, let me know. Love to fix y'all breakfast on the Mornington Peninsula.
This track will last forever
This song reminds me of the one I've lost romantically speaking, the one that got away but it calms the darker thoughts about sad memories because it is such a vibrant and truly beautiful song
this will be slapped on all throughout spring, solid stuff guys!!
Should’ve been number 1 :(
Yep, surprised it wasn't #1 TBH
Facts
Lyrics
Staying at the same hotel, in different rooms
Mine is the one with the fork tongue sticking out
And when we come face to face, been swimming in shame
Just playing my games, I just wanna be someone's pet
Cool name
Far away from here, there is a notice flapping
In the breeze for me, along with the notion that I
Changed too much, maybe not enough
I don't wanna weigh you down, no
It's happened in your neighborhood
7 AM, it stopped in the tracks for some reason
Now everybody knows my name, it's all dripping in blood
And leaving a stranger's taste in your mouth
Cool name
Far away from here, there is a notice flapping
In the breeze for me, along with the notion that I
Changed too much, maybe not enough
I don't wanna weigh you down, no
Happiness weighs a tonne, it's all speckled in luck
And the heaviest fog, I never could pick it up
I'd be staring at the stars, dispelling our words
And waving their wands at me, I am the chosen one
Cool name
Far away from here, there is a notice flapping
In the breeze for me, along with the notion that I
Changed too much, maybe not enough
I don't wanna weigh you down, no
Have I changed too much? Maybe not enough
I don't wanna weigh you down
thank you
“Heavy as fuck” not “ The heaviest fog”
That helped me
i can't not cry listening to this song
thank u ball park i love u mwah

modern day here comes the sun
Is this about love or the loss of love?

To the 11 people who gave this the thumbs down- wtf is wrong with you??!
