I lost my father last week. Your crafts Anton, lets me escape reality and forget everything else. My dear father last words were Rock on forever- and that I will do with your music by my side, till the day I go and meet my loved ones. Thank you for everything, Anton.
The lyrics are particularly fitting for my mood today. Tonight, I think I'll end up having a drink--or three--have the news on but sound off, and listen to the works in progress playlist as a comforting soundtrack to lower my anxiety levels.
I was yesterday playing the entire playlist at this cafe I work at, to try to play my part and spread your good vibes onto the world a bit more. Thank you Anton :)
Spiritually uplifting,you set souls free with those lyrics,the music is a perfect accompaniment.Ascension is where you're headed,hope others can join you,thankyou.
Keep em comin my brother - sacred melodies. Fatherhood? Your age? Just the Muse’s angelic poison? No matter Anton seems your music has taken you n us beyond expectation. Thanks man - stay sane in Berlin. Peace ✌️
@@antonfjordson all I know my friend is you need to stay around a long time creating the tunes you do. There’s no goin’ out. Only endurance - sane or madness long as we make art n beauty our way. Kudos man!! You’re a beacon.
I just freed my soul from paying rent. It’s too nice and fluid here in the winter. Kicking it in safe spaces , using all the money I make, keeping music free ; the last couple songs didn’t instantly pop for me, but this has some nice hooks- and once again, a beautiful beat
what's in a name? - brian jonestown massacre 15.2.23 0628am all i need is the air that you breathe sprang to mind with the opening of this song, for some reason. strange....................................................
I've lost my way this year with new music, mostly listening to past songs that pricked up my ears. Many new to me, others temporarily forgotten but this song enticed me back into 2020.
"Whats In A Name?" Some smile shines through Did someone drag your dreams away? Or did you sell your soul for rent to pay? You got your hand out, need a hand up Can I help you, my friend? I got something I'm gonna give you, make your misery end It's all coming true And good things come to you Love is on its way To brighten up your day Life has done you wrong So I wrote you all this song To brighten up your day And wash your pain away And this song is true I wrote it just for you To seep inside your soul And wash your spirit whole You say that life has never been this bad And everyone you know is feeling sad It's getting hard to find the strength to live Cause no one's got a shit left to give So I wrote another song for you I know that everybody's feeling blue So here's a song to let your spirits fly Just let it in and make you feel alive
Anton, I don’t know if you’ll see this, but thank you. I was having a really hard time this morning and I almost quit my job. Turns out all I needed was a few minutes alone and this song. You saved me today, man. And you probably will again. ❤️
Absolutely Beautiful. The quality of your work is still stunning. Your ability to articulate and project pure, raw human emotion, even at a subliminal level is MASTERFUL. So grateful you are still making music that moves me. Thank you Anton. As a musician and engineer that holds actual art and artists above all else in the world of music. Singer / songwriters of your caliber are a rare breed. I'm rambling, but it does mean a great deal to me that you are you, and doing what you do.
Jesus, You really outdid yourself with this album. Fantastic collection of what you are capable of. The Roadrunner show outside Boston was like going home. Felt like I already knew the band after your works in progress. Every song on this album I just want to go on forever. Who the fuck puts out such gorgeous, heartfelt art like this today? Thank you, thank you through my tears of joy.
Man, that's a good song. Somehow smile shines through Did someone drag your dreams away? Or did you sell your soul for rent to pay? You got your hand out Need a hand up? Can I help you my friend? I got somethin’ I’m gonna give you Make your misery end It’s all comin’ true And good things come to you Love is on its way To brighten up your day Life has done you wrong So I wrote you all this song To brighten up your day And wash your pain away And this song is true I wrote it just for you To see this sign of song And wash your spirit home You say that life has never been this bad And everyone you know is feeling sad It’s getting hard to find the strength to live Cuz no one’s got a shit left to give So, I wrote another song for you I know that everybody’s feeling blue So here’s a song to let your spirit fly She said it’ll make it feel alright
in what could be one of the craziest days in a very long time, in one of the craziest years ever, you have given us hope through the power of music. for that, I am grateful. at the end of the day, there's nothing more powerful than music.
Love u Anton thank you for working so hard and providing us with all this art to consume. Your commitment during these hard times is greatly appreciated. Liebe Grüße aus Berlin xx
you're reading my soul in this song. have been struggling to create that "mass", to fulfill my soul. keep up anton you're amazing. we're all connected in all this sadness and still greatness of the universe.
I like that you’re a little out there. But that makes the music real to people. I like the beautiful moods this has. Pain makes the beauty more vibrant. Thanks Anton!
Like the other commenter I lost my dad during this stupid pandemic... He's the one who turned me on to your music in the early 2000s. Thanks for all the tunes Anton.
With most of us worrying about the future of the Western world tonight, it's truly fantastic to be able to sink into some new real music. No fronts, no act, no nothing except soul, so thank you
Open Heart Surgery was my favourite BJM song until I heard this... You are the most talented musician I have ever heard. Your music has enhanced my life & made it better. When someione asks me what I want to listen to I will always say The Brian Jonestown Massacre... I live in Edmonton, Canada & all 3 times I attempted to see you perform the show unfortunately got cancelled (Edmonton once & Vancouver twice). I will fly somewhere to see you next year...
Anton, this is gorgeous! Thank you so much for another gem. Can't think of a better time for these new songs, they really lift one's spirit! This one is really outstanding!!

Sorry for your loss - be well

Oh sweetheart.. . . . xo
Just the right amount of prickly keyboard stalking the background of this track.
This is what we needed today. Your vocals in this are shining.
agreed
Best tunes to listen to after work with a fat J.
I had to listen to it twice. Just listened a third time...my favorite song of 2020
'cuz no ones got a shit left to give.... ' doesn't get any realer than that!
A prophet with a master craft. I remain convinced.
truth.
I am a true believer !
This one is special.

@@antonfjordson What’s your fav out of the new stuff? I could only imagine how fun it was to jam on Stuck to Yous.
Anton and big chingus, amazing. Lol
Sooooooo many jams have been graciously released for all to enjoy- damn near enough for 3 records!!!
Oh Anton, you dangerous man, you.
Thank you from those who needed to hear this. Theme song for 2020.
Keep em comin my brother - sacred melodies. Fatherhood? Your age? Just the Muse’s angelic poison? No matter Anton seems your music has taken you n us beyond expectation. Thanks man - stay sane in Berlin. Peace ✌️
the world is shit... i ain't going out like that.
@@antonfjordson all I know my friend is you need to stay around a long time creating the tunes you do. There’s no goin’ out. Only endurance - sane or madness long as we make art n beauty our way. Kudos man!! You’re a beacon.
That literally just gave me some energy during a difficult day here in the U.S. Some of your best work!! Soul Medicine:)!
Filed for bankruptcy today. A glass of wine and this has soothed me better than Prince Valium. Thank you for sharing. 🖤
Sorry to hear that.

Yeah I'm tired of being a rent slave. Slumlords don't help the sitch

ive had an awful day at the office this song makes me forget that.. thankyou for your music
You are so welcome
This is so purple, thank you.
I guess that’s why they call it a purple patch
Wow - Anton remains consistently good with this one. Classic BJM style lyrics.
I've lost my way this year with new music, mostly listening to past songs that pricked up my ears. Many new to me, others temporarily forgotten but this song enticed me back into 2020.
This albums going to be great!!!
"Whats In A Name?"
Some smile shines through
Did someone drag your dreams away?
Or did you sell your soul for rent to pay?
You got your hand out, need a hand up
Can I help you, my friend?
I got something I'm gonna give you, make your misery end
It's all coming true
And good things come to you
Love is on its way
To brighten up your day
Life has done you wrong
So I wrote you all this song
To brighten up your day
And wash your pain away
And this song is true
I wrote it just for you
To seep inside your soul
And wash your spirit whole
You say that life has never been this bad
And everyone you know is feeling sad
It's getting hard to find the strength to live
Cause no one's got a shit left to give
So I wrote another song for you
I know that everybody's feeling blue
So here's a song to let your spirits fly
Just let it in and make you feel alive

Thumbnail of young Joseph drew me in - the song took me to another place.

She said it’ll make it feel alright
Great song indeed I always hear closing out the 4th verse, to seep inside your soul
And wash your spirit whole

This is a delicious meal for my ears! How did we all get so lucky to hear this music during such a time as this? Thanks, Anton! XO ❤️

- English aint my native language but this is what i got:
Summer, smile, shines through/true
Did someone drag your dreams away
Or did you sell your soul for rent to pay
You got your hand out need a hand out can i help you my friend
I've got something i'm gonna give you, make your misery end
Yes(?) all coming true
And good things come to you
Love is on its way
To brighten up your day
Life has done you wrong
So i wrote you all this song
To brighten up your day
And wash your pain away
And this song is true
I wrote it just for you
To see (or seep?) inside your soul
And wash your spirit whole
You say that life has never been this bad
And everyone you know is feeling sad
Its getting hard to find the strength to live
Cause no one's got a shit left to give
So i wrote another song for you
I know that everybody's feeling blue
So here's something to let your spirit fly
Just let it in and make it feel alright
...feeling light
Just let it in and make it feel light
