John is the greatest songwriter of all time
How many times do I have to say this is the greatest songwriter of all time?
It's like I can listen to the Mountain Goats for years and yet still randomly manage to discover new amazing songs I've never heard before. Absolutely beautiful, thank you John.
This was today exactly #2024/06/16
I remember listening to this song nonstop after the most traumatic day of my life. Years later, slowly remembering who I am and embracing who I am now.
Hope you are doing better now.
I just want to leave you with a quote from someone who has helped me when times felt off.
"Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and loved more than you know"- Winnie the Pooh.
Be good and keep finding your way.
@@mrmoviemanic1 Thank you 🥲 I'm definitely gonna write down that quote and put it on my wall.
I'm in a much better place, mentally and physically, now. I've been super lucky to have the support of amazing friends and family so even though I'm not 100% and may never be 100% I am still much better than I was!
For my healing, I found it essential to have something to look forward to even if it's eating a piece of your favorite food or standing outside for a few minutes to listen to the trees. I also adopted a cat who, although I didn't know it at the time, needed to do some healing too so we did a lot of healing together. He helped me just as much as I have helped him and I can confidently say that without him I'd be in a very different spot today.
Thank you again for your thoughtful reply and I wish you nothing but the best. I hope you make the most of your 2023 and have an amazing and wonderful year!
@@mrmoviemanic1 Only knew that quote up to "smarter than you think". Thanks for showing me the most important part and being a kind unidentified human on youtube.
This is a great song still I’ve been listening to it for a decade I think
I want this song played at my funeral for my son. As one last parting gift to him,
since nobody else is saying it: this is an American Music Club song written by the great Mark Eitzel. both the original and Darnielle's version here are crushingly beautiful.
yup... true. AMC stuff.. luv them since 90's
It feels like my confused middle school self is singing to me. Thanks.
@Actually Jesse McCree me too
The service for this doesn’t even exist anymore
I know your world is full of people who have nothing
Who have nothing to give
Who have nothing to give
I know everyone's trying to sell you the illusion
That keeps them in Hell
That keeps them down in Hell
I'm stuck in my confusion
but I know that you'll go far
You're chased by the horizon
because you know who you are
Hope you remember who you are
Remember who you are
I know they only see you as someone they can use
and someone they pick or choose
and then blame you when they lose
I don't want to be a mistake that only falls off your radar
You can't afford a mistake
because you know who you are
Hope you remember who you are
Remember who you are
All I can give you is one of my stupid songs
and I know it's not the real thing
Wish I could give you the real thing
I'm lost in the sky, but I would bet upon your star
You're alone in this life
Unless you know who you are
Hope you remember who you are
Remember who you are
Yeah
Thanks for posting these :)
thanks 😊
Thanks. :-)
john doesn’t sounds nasally in this omg??? ive never heard his voice sound this gorgeous im sobbing
big dingus gi
big dingus Devi
just listened to this for the first time.............i feel so understood
Man, John really releases music in the weirdest places sometimes
it's like a scavenger hunt
Not a bad comparison
@@becky2757 follow the bread crumbs
Fuck it come on over and I'll give you a loaf of bread and let you pet my fish
Thanks for the kind words and megasharkweek Happy New Year. All love
I just graduated and I'm moving to a new city soon, I've been scared about leaving for so long, and this song is just making me imagine what moving day will feel like, my empty room in my house, the packed boxes in my apartment... I'm nostalgic about something that hasn't happened yet aha
How did it go? 📦
Very applicable to me right now. Thank you john for this great song.
This would go good for the ending to the new Christopher Robin film.
Somehow I stumbled across the perfect song at the perfect time...
I was kinda just... giving up on life I guess... because I got stuck, with no one to pull me out and it just feels like it's not going to get better...
I'd like to say this song is helping me in some grand way, but really I just feel a little bit understood... for once.
I just want to be myself, but I can't... over time I forgot who I was until I found myself again and now I just can't be myself anymore...
Always know that you are enough for this world and that you can be your own light, but always know there are others that care about you. Hope your doing better and keep being you.
This is lovely thank you
this song says everything I needed to hear :)
Just moved into my college dorm a couple weeks ago, I find this song very much applicable to me at this point in my life. (Gives me serious Ben Folds vibes btw)
Hello. I hope you're ok. And hopefully getting better. Remember that The Mountain Goats are all about overcoming adversity. Bad things happen, yes, but someone how we survive. Take care.
Even just in the few days since I first commented, things have been so much better. I found a great group of people to eat food with, hang out with, and have Shitty Movie Tuesdays and Wonderful Movie Wednesdays. And not too long ago, I met the first two Mountain Goats fans I'd ever met in my whole life. I held their cassette from '92, signed by JD, in my own two hands and it blew my mind; I'd only ever seen pictures of that stuff. They just so happen to live right down the hall from me. That just about changed everything. Some of my new friends have asked me to send them my favorite TMG songs; this cover was one of the first ones that came to my mind.
It's little things like your comment and kindness that keep my spirits up on days like today, when my roommate is being difficult and I spill my large coffee on the carpet and accidentally cut my finger. Hope you're well.
This is so great to hear, I had a very similar experience last year wen I started college. Have a fantastic time!
das war so schön --oo--
I like John's homage to the Coffeehouse channel on Sirius.
I laughed much harder than I should have
This just made my day so much better
Yippee this song speaks truth like all others he's wrote.
Joe Kavey remember who you are joe
Ya Joe you can't afford a mistake you rember who u are ok??
I'll be eighteen in exactly two months. This morning I almost cried while planning my first trip without my family...life is moving super fast and I had a really rough year. I wish I could look in a mirror and say "I know who you are", but I still don't. I have plans, but sometimes everything looks blurry and I can't make myself leave my bed. I need to start living, not just letting the time pass, I owe it to the kid I was.
i still don't know who i am but hey!! im 18! and tomorrow im leaving for that trip :)
As someone who is 28 and has felt just like that for a decade:
If you have the means, get a therapist. That inability to get out of bed is pretty common for depressive episodes- let me be clear: I am not saying that you have clinical depression. But anybody can have a depressive episode under the right circumstances, and in your own words have had a very rough year and are feeling disconnected from yourself and perhaps anxious because of that.
And I know what you’re thinking; “Random internet person, don’t you think that’s a little extreme?” And no, no I don’t, because I was in that same position, and it’s only much later in life (and with a bachelors in Human Behavior under my belt) that I’ve come to understand and accept that there was no way in hell I could have been prepared to face myself when I finally had all the structure and regularity removed from my life. I certainly wasn’t emotionally cogent enough to understand what was going on inside me when my high school sweetheart was sneaking around behind my back and lied about it over my first year away from home. But it was a depressive episode, the first of many and it was those hard life events and circumstances that made me more susceptible in the first place. I didn’t know how to handle those emotions (and lack thereof) or process them, but shit, therapy helps. And I was lucky it only took me 7 years and a failed marriage to find out. Plus, if you’re receptive to your therapist/counselor, and they are receptive to you, you’re going to be coming to a better understanding of yourself anyways; Counseling is often about understanding yourself in the moment, but it can be equally helpful in understanding you as a whole. You’ll examine life events and your reactions, and the things you’ve done and the relationships you have and will build a picture of your wants and needs, your beliefs and values and why you hold them, and who you are as a person, and if you don’t like that person, you will be happily encouraged to think of a new picture and work towards it. You just have to be open to it.
Last but probably the most important: don’t be afraid to go slow. Life feels like it’s moving fast, and it is in some ways, but it’s okay to let it pass you by while you’re taking the time to figure yourself out. I’d be decades ahead of where I am now if I’d just taken the time to get help and meet myself.
Tl;dr life has no purpose except the one you give it. Find whatever sits at the intersection of “what am I good at”, “what I love doing” and “what can I do to help people” and chances are you will be happy, but please get a therapist because depression is a life-sucking leech and therapy can also help us find our intersection.
@@thagomizer4711 Thank you SO much for your words! I've been pretty busy since senior year started and, as you said, I feel having a routine is what's pushing me everyday...but everything is a little less blurry now. I surely have bad days, but another problem I had was not being able to imagine myself in the future and I think it's getting better. To be clear: I never wanted to die, but I couldn't picture myself in ‘adult life’ either. Now I'm excited about university, getting my drivers license, etc. and I look forward to hang out with my friends (even if making plans is still easier than leaving the house when the plan is a real party or dinner or movie night you have to attend to), which is something I haven't really done in the last couple years.
I hope all of this is more than just a distraction, but I promise I'll seek help the moment I feel that way again (also, talking to a therapist would do me good for other things, why lying lol). I'm so so sorry for what you've been through and I think it's amazing you've chosen to help a random person online. Actually, I really do hope many people who need to hear these words stumble upon your comment. I wish you the best!!!
@@mxrs4600
Hope things are going well for you, ive also felt this way for quite some time
@@3ncore706 thank you!! there's been highs and lows. i have to admit my life hasn't changed a lot, or at least not as much as i promised myself in that first comment, i've been pretty much on my own these last few months actually. i'm about to graduate and probably i've just been more distracted lately. i know how hard all of this can be and i really hope things are gonna get better for you soon!!! somebody else suggested seeing a therapist and that's what i'd genuinely recommend you (even if i haven't followed that advice myself, foolishly). we can handle tough stuff on our own, but it doesn't mean we should. take care!
I seriously need to own this.
Great song
Love it...
did anyone else expect john to cover the song by the who?
Mufasa's theme song.
