This guy is just a cut above the rest. So glad he’s still so slept on. He’s like a secret that only a few people know.
why wouldnt you want your favorite artist to succeed to the fullest? just so you can claim that you're a better fan?
Greg is actually one of my family’s closest friends. He and my dad played music together all the time. He is truly one of the greatest musicians to walk the earth, and his beautiful music will shake you to your core. Keep up the great work Greg🙏🙏🙏
Any song he makes is always a good one at this point.
Literally
Agreed. But this one is particularly amazing
Beautiful!!
At this point? Since the beginning!
It's like he's incapable of coming with a bad song
He's said in his concerts a few times that this is the saddest song on the album, and after a few listens it's slowly making sense to me. It's beautiful.
What makes the song sad? Genuine question. Would love to know your take on it :)
@@williamfernandez1022 It'll be a long one, I'm warning you now...
It's almost a running gag at this point that Gregory calls describes his music as "sad songs about space". I think every listener of his understands this sentiment as simply as is described.
It's the three songs so far released for Apaloosa Bones, and this one in particular, which his fans can see semblance of to albums like This Empty Northern Hemisphere and even The Weatherman. For me, it's all about the lyricism, and Gregory loves to sing about loss and identity, physical distance as a metaphor for emptiness, and all the universal themes of "finding oneself" in this vast and open world. He doesn't always do this explicitly or plainly - it's usually (always) mixed in with visual imagery and metaphor. But this song is quite straightforward in this way, and it makes the appeal of it a much more solemn one.
What makes this sad (again, for me) is that this sounds almost like a eulogy. The simplicity of the melody and instruments complements this tragic monologue. Go to 2:22 in this song, and this, in my opinion, is quintessential Gregory.
"was i that gone,
man i hope not.
glad you found me
when you did."
If you read til the end, I love you ❤️
Let's hope this man keeps writing us his poetry.
@@williamfernandez1022 Le canzoni davvero belle non possono che essere tristi. Sarebbe un po' lungo spiegarlo, ma è così...
Will Gregory write a song about your love of snatch?
@@Isakovian beautiful interpretation. Thank you.
Was it the voice I've known
Or your Appaloosa Bones
That carried me home
'Cross the plaines
It's like you say all the time
World has lost its mind
Between you and I, I know
That I've lost mine
Was I that gone
Man, I hope not
I'm glad you found me
When you did
♪
Well there ain't no work
Just Pennsylvania birds
I heard they're nesting now
In the city
And the TV's on
From every window, every window
Evening's fall and flicker
Through the glass
Was I that gone
Man, I hope not
Glad you found me
When you did
♪
We got a window sill
They haven't made no pill
To get us 'cross the wintertime
Tell the time by the walls
Watch the shadows fall
And the pages slow
And the room called your name
And the pages slow
And the room called your name
Thankyou
✨🩷✨
Apple Music lyrics have it as “and the pages slow” instead of “in the pages slow”
@@joekeaveny4459 editing now ...i didnt get time to check up that line, but yeah, singing it sounded off.
thank you
Thank you 💞
The first time I heard "Appaloosa Bones", it felt like being wrapped in a memory. Isakov paints with lyrics, and every brushstroke captures a piece of the soul. From vast plains to the intimate window sills of our minds, he takes us on a journey. There's a line, "Was I that gone? Man, I hope not," that tugged at my heartstrings, making me reflect on moments of personal loss and rediscovery. The song is more than just music-it's an experience, a poignant reminder of life's fleeting moments and the enduring echoes of the heart. Listening to it feels like coming home.
I couldn't agree more!
This song made me pick up my phone and text everyone that I appreciate just how I appreciate them. The magic of Gregory Alan Isakov, to make someone feel like that, so grateful.
I believe this song beautifully articulates coming back to stillness after being trapped in a boggled state of mind.
Mixes melancholy and a desire for a lost America to devastating effect. Gregory, like many of us, is never far from sadness.
Burping my newborn baby at 3AM Listening to this ❤ She loves him
I'm glad this song found me when it did.
Our first dance at our wedding was Big Black Car, and our baby lulled to sleep with Dandelion Wine playing in the background. Now my husband and I are dancing with our walking toddler ❤️ thank you for this beautiful piece.
This song is immediately up there with Master & the Hound, She Always Takes it Black, and Was I Just Another One. They are slow and powerful with every word carving into you, drawing out emotions you didn't know you had.
All the ones you’ve mentioned are my favorites and I strongly agree that this deserves a place with them
every song you create feels like a hug of a loved one you havent seen in years
His music just soothes my soul, I can't explain it. It ignites such nostalgia, and a yearning for both the past and future. I always pretend I'm embarking on some profound adventure while listening.
You ARE embarking on a journey ❤
Of all the Gregory songs I’ve ever obsessed over…this one has reached depths I cannot even describe.
I heard this song in concert Jan 2023 and when it was released I absolutely broke down. Still my favorite of all time
I heard this at a concert of his a while back, but when I first listened to it today, I thought, "oh, this is going to change me." I was right. Jesus Christ. I was right.
This man doesn’t have a bad song ❤️
I’ve wanted to see you for so long. This past wkd when you played at Winnipeg folkfest, a bucket list was checked off for me.
I recently lost my brother in Mexico, and you filled my heart up with warmth and love. Thank you Gregory ❤️
Don't stop making music please. You are a gift to this world
Flying from Indiana to Atlanta to see this beautiful band play it live.
How was it ??? :)
This came out 7 days ago, has about 46,000 views, and I’m probably more than half of those views alone 😂 this is one of my fave songs of all time!
Same. ❤
I’m responsible for at least 25000 of those 😅❤
@@TheGhostOfCaroline I'll claim 10k of them, 😆💯!
This song is really beautiful and soulful. I listened to it for the first time on my birthday, so it feels very special to me. Greg has the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard. Man, what a talented guy!
Gregory Alan Isakov is like leonard cohen, bob Dylan and Gordon Lightfoot put together
Rope John Prine in there too
Indeed
@@qwinbutton5156 absolutey has john prine thrown in there
Sounds more like older Reed Foehl songs. ...Who was also a big fan of John Prine
He reaches inside your soul where so many others cant and it feels like he just makes sits in empathy there..❤❤
I can't wait for this album to be released!!🥰
There is just no one that can duplicate his style! He was created and God said…. I have perfected the perfect voice and talent ♥️
Something about his music just speaks to the soul
Your songs are always with me, wherever I go they carry me home.
This dude literally can't make a bad song. Wowza
Sent shivers to my Appaloosa Bones.
I had the privilege of experiencing this masterpiece live for the first time almost a year ago. Thank you! Gregory rules!
He is a gem 💎 his songs give a feeling of calmness
these songs really are dropping whenever i personally need them most.
I heard y’all play this is Utrecht in November. Cried like a child then, and now I get to cry all over again. Thank you.
'your Appaloosa bones That carried me home across the plains.' Where did the concept of Appaloosa bones come from? What does it symbolize? Along with the simple melody and Greg's soul stirring voice, it feels haunting and evocative to me. Is it about heritage, connection, longing, or something even more personal or profound like an inside joke or secret love code? It's a beautiful mystery that adds a layer of complexity to an already compelling piece. I think overall, this one deserved the title track status. 🐎🐴🦴🌵
Been waiting for this 628 days since I first heard him and Steve perform it. Today’s a good day.
An instant classic Gregory, as are so many of your timeless songs. This song is a supreme testament to the extraordinary, understated power, exquisite, and delicate balance, between your instrumentation, and your vocals... something many performers have a difficult time developing an awareness of, and a sense for. Perhaps that is one of your greatest assets-that and a Beautiful mind Gregory, a remarkable mind.
wonderfully put
I read this in rick Sanchez voice in my head and it felt perfect 🔥
@@cjjams7930 I'm sorry-I'm not sure I follow but I like that we are having any kind of dialogue around the music of Gregory Allen Isakov because I believe his music is that important!
@@DstnLaPres Rick is just a mad scientist who has extremely deep philosophical moments where he shows the deepest trouble of sorrow and humanity, and trying to be at peace with the way things can be etc glad to have met you here btw ! Gregory is a special portal into the soul I believe
Man. This song just hits home. I love him and his music all the way. (Big suprise to you all my family is good friends with this guy) I don’t wish to brag. But every time I hear him it’s just amazing to see and believe how far Greg has come.
This might be my favorite song on this album. I'm glad it "found me when (it) did"
So beautiful. I really needed this today. It's warm and yet bittersweet, like a goodbye hug from a friend you won't see again for a while.
Another masterpiece! His songs are ones I know I will be listening to when I am old and dreaming of now! His music will transcend time!
I can’t wait to hear this one live at Red Rocks. It’s so spare and peaceful and those notes will hang in the cool night air so sweetly 🥰
This song is so calming, the way it makes me feel at peace. His voice just makes everything perfect. Hearing it live makes all those feelings 1000x more real too.
You have the gift of an angel Gregory Alan Isakov. You can write albums where every letter, every word, every phrase, every sentence, every verse, every song has this perfect meaning. And you accompany that with the most soulful music ever composed. Thank you for still being so good! Can't wait to see you in Oslo in December!
I am blessed to have Gregory's music in my life
FINALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYY
My wife & I danced to this song at our wedding 🙂
Gregory Alan Isakov... All his songs are beautiful, and his voice, guitar playing, and everything in his music is gorgeous and perfect.
After listening to you for about 14 years, I finally saw you in concert tonight. You and the band are masters of your craft. Spectacular concert.
I have to admit I miss the searching “Amelia” part of the chorus, but I have loved this song since seeing it in concert and jotting doen any random lyrics I could remembering to try and stick it in my mind forever. Now it’s in the world, yay! Also, that stirring piano break? The strings? The walking bassline? STOP IT’S TOO PRETTY.
When did you hear this in concert? I’m trying to find a live version with the Amelia part in it but am having no luck
@@ranepoppa6654 I’m going to guess Ithaca NY November 2019? Not sure if there were many videos taken.
Cool thanks!
Feel so blessed to have heard this live. Still getting goosebumps on the one hundredth listen.
Righttttt omggg hearing it Live was AMAZIJNGGG😭😭
Where can I get the CD?
The studio version is just as beautiful as the live version. Very happy to hear it at last with all the extra instrumentation 🖤🖤
HOW IS EVERY SONG HE MAKES PERFECT
I AGREE 💙
Because he is perfect
Nice avi btw.
Thank you Greg...my god you sure can write a song...every time.
Gregory...Inspiring me thru tough times...
Love, love, love his music and his voice. Brings me comfort!
I love this man's voice
Beautiful...simply beautiful
It's my favorite by Greg, good job, love it.
Gregory, come to Brazil!
2023 is the best year till nowfor me after so many years
This song is so beautiful
Always a great moment when you get a notification that Gregory has released a new song. Love the track. As always.
Thank you a million times for coming to Brisbane Australia! I thought I'd never get to see you play live. I listen to a playlist of your music everyday to help me get through the day. I bought tickets for my Wife and I the second they came on sale! Great Artists always skip Brisbane! Not this time!. Thankyou!
I'm glad I found you when I did, great album, thankyou for posting your music.
This man & his music❤ the favourite playlist of all times!!!!!
So happy to finally see this after hearing it in concert in October for the first time. Been in love with this song since then💛
I wonder when or where this picture was taken, the signs all read in German!
Yessssss ❤
Beautiful
Your songs are always wow. Your peaceful calming voice cheers the soul♥️
Me encantan las canciones de Gregory, saludos desde latinoamerica.
Everytime he releases a song I have a new favorite. I can't wait to see him in Portland soon. Truly moving music ❤
This is 4 minutes I wish would never end....... 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Moves my soul ♥️
Ohhh, that beautiful tone.
I love the meaning this song makes me feel. Very symbolic. I love the image and feel of this wild horse aka"person"haunting you in a way. The song gives a real feeling of time passing..it's really just so beautiful. "I'm glad you found me when you did" hits deep.
Gregory- ouch man- In the best way
Thank you for good song!❤
my dream to watch in a concert
This song makes me think of faith. How after a storm we realize how far gone we once were, wondering how we got through that time, and thinking about how much we’ve come to grow from those experiences.
Tres beau!!!
Great tune
i on repeat for a whole night
this is beautiful, Greg. I’m so proud of you touching so many people’s hearts over all these years 💛✨
"Raise your glass, propose a toast to common disregard. How a planet can be doomed as ours feels puts to mind a falling star.
But this one will be failed before its falling from a galaxy that resembles a spill.
Streaking like a tear through darkness like a way without a will... like a mistake happening to an accident..."
,dan'
Love from Italy! Please come back here one day!
Your my favorite of all time bro.
Magical
what a beautiful voice
Bless you Gregory ol’ boy
Coming to the UK in November and I’m going to see him, years of listening hoping he’d come here 💥
Beautiful as always
Masterpiece.
Straight to the soul
In love 🧡
It's like you say all the time
The world has lost its mind
Between you and I, I know
That I've lost mine.....
Nice sound. Real music is rare these days
So beautiful and sad. LOVE THIS.
❤ thank you
