    If you guys ever see this, just know that I've been obsessed with this album for months. It's so good. Please keep going. There's something very special here.

      Also, hit me up if you ever want to play in Detroit. I might be able to set you up with a gig and a place to crash.

      Jamie Jamieson that's so kind of you ! thank you so much. A bunch of people have asked us about MI lately, I honestly had no idea we had so many fans there. We tried to get a show there for this upcoming tour but it didn't work out and we will be in Columbus then Indiana instead. Hopefully next tour and I will take you up on that offer ! Be well -Apes

    "Think of all the things you need to fix and fix them" I have had nearly crippling anxiety and some.form.of depression my whole life. I learned this one really young and I thank the universe that I did. I couldn't imagine my life without it.

    [Verse 1]
    Last night when I walked into your house I noticed that the couch had moved
    And I wanted to ask you about it
    But you were talking so when you finished I opened up my mouth
    And you called me out for being bad at listening
    So I wrote this song to tell ya just how well that I can listen
    And that I think that you are really cute
    And I thought that maybe I should wait to tell you that I like you but
    I don't really have that much to lose
    [Chorus]
    And I could learn your favorite song and play it on my guitar
    and I'll probably sing it all wrong but it might catch your attention
    and I don't know your favorite song but it's probably by Mars Volta cause you said you really like them when we talked and I listened
    yeah I listened
    [Verse 2]
    So this morning when I woke up in my bed I made a list of all the things you told me last night that I had inside my head
    like that yellow is your favorite because it's a happy color
    and that you have been sad for as long as you remember
    and that the way your kitchen looked made you upset because it was a mess and that's the way things look when you're depressed
    and you sat across the room on that rocking chair you said you hate cause it is so loud and I wished that you had sat next to me on the couch
    [Verse 3]
    And I'm scared that this list is too long
    That I can't fit all these things into a song
    And still keep your attention
    So I'm trying hard to mention some important things that I feel will really demonstrate
    Just how well that I listened
    [Bridge]
    Like how you said with tears in your eyes that you wish that being grateful was enough to keep you from feeling sad all the time
    And that your favorite flowers are impatiens
    And that when you love somebody you wait
    Patiently for them
    And that your favorite movie is the Shawshank Redemption
    And that serenity means listening to the water down at Tucquan Glenn
    And how you make poor decisions with the people that you choose to date
    And you'll probably think I'm crazy for this and I'd tell you that I don't give a shit but that would be a lie because I care
    What you think about me
    And I just really, desperately want to be your next poor decision
    Be your next poor decision
    Be your next poor decision
    [Chorus]
    And I could learn your favorite song and play it on my guitar
    And I'll probably sing it all wrong but it might catch your affection and
    I don't know your favorite song but it might be by Mars Volta
    Cause you said you really liked them when we talked
    And I listened
    Yea, I listened

    I can't wrap my head around the fact this only has 64 views. Though I did find it on bandcamp before TH-cam.
    Love this. Loving all of this.
    Would love to cover this but I'm not advanced enough to figure out chords and stuff just by listening yet. Murray.
    Keep it up folks, y'all are amazing

      thank you ! we are a relatively new band - we have only been around since November and this record came out in March - so not many people know about us yet , help spread the word ;) Also, this song is really easy to play, capo 5th fret C E Am F, have fun !

    So damn good. Just met a guy named Lash and we played all night in a town called folsom ca. He let me listen to this song and I cried because it brought up old memories. Just know this music brings people from Maryland and California together. People that would otherwise never know eachother or jam together. But tonight we fuckin bonded over your tunes

    This song came on during a test in my 4th period lol, instantly hooked. Ended up playing in the car on the way home too
    I love simple songs like this that don’t quite follow a rhythm and is a little chaotic, like the front bottoms (which was in the playlist before it ended, hence why this song specifically popped up)

Just like don’t stop .... just keep writing this music with your vibe at the moment. Sad happy whatever this is bc honestly it’s a mood I wanted for song long but just couldn’t explain it or ever get a song to quiet touch that spot in your chest when the song hits. Man your voice girl ! Perfect , take care of yourself !

    Not really sure why I'm posting this here other than I know someone else listening to this will probably understand what's going on in my head better than I can. Had one of the meanest things I've ever heard said in person casually shot out at me and when I said something to the person about it they just doubled over in laughter. Y'all, that really broke me down and I've just sort of been dazed since. How can someone just say the worst shit to you and then laugh when you tell them? Someone help me out here
