This is one of those songs that in about 10 years will just explode in popularity because it gets featured in a film and people find this absolute work of art, glad to be here before 20 million views 🫡
"you got a gift, man. Go and be something. If i was in your shoes, i would be jumping" something about the way he says those words makes them so real, I can't get over it.
Very good song. Listening to it on the recommendation of my son who incidentally woke me up at 0500 this morning coming in from a party. We will be having words.
Indescribably glad I've discovered you guys at this point in my life, it feels like the perfect timing. I have an array of chronic illnesses which I've had since 21 (I'm now nearly 30) which has been terribly isolating, I've had many turn their back on me because of this due to their inability to understand. I've also struggled with addiction over the years, so this song hits me really hard at a time when I need it most. It's been a rough start to 2025, but with discoveries like these and knowing I'll be seeing you open for FDC in March is keeping me going when I have very few to fall back on. I truly cannot wait, thank you for your healing music 💖🫂
same here, turning 29 and going on over a decade of chronic illnesses that have removed me from the normal structures of society. first time i heard "they don't know what it is, And how could this happen man, I'm just a kid, I've got something to live for, and so much to give" i broke down in my car. sending love, its not an easy life at all
I’ll always remember the time that we met It was somebody’s party You were wearing that black dress Clinging to shadows Chameleon-esque And we were together, when we were fifteen But nothing is real then, you know what I mean I slept with that dancer, I didn’t mean it It was all in a dream babe, all in a dream All in a dream (Sorry) And I hadn’t seen you in a couple of years You’d been at the doctors You called me in tears “Jacob baby i’m broken! I can’t be fixed! They think it’s my kidneys, they don’t know what it is And how could this happen man, I’m just a kid I’ve got something to live for, and so much to give Now I live in a basement, a blade in my wrist I think this is over, I think this is it What if this is it man?” And all of your friends, they say that they need you When you need them they just get up and leave you One of them said “I don’t care if this kills you” What if it did Katie? What if it killed her? What would you do then? Hope you’d be sorry Hope you’d go to her grave, apologise for me All the time that she gave you Every time you were worried That’s because she was your friend then Hope that you’re sorry Truly And when I was using, she still said she loved me Be more of a human, less of a junkie You gotta give man, go and be something If I was in your shoes, I would be jumping And that’s when I felt it, encounter my heart It was the light of a candle, in the depths of the dark And there was a fire, it danced in your eyes A beautiful world and a beautiful mind A beautiful mind A beautiful mind A beautiful mind
I suffer from mental health,started 15 years ago,due to bereavement, unfortunately I saw an opportunity to make a few£££ and thought I'm at rock bottom so what's to loose,this song came on when I just put the last gram out while I'm in a 2 day,14g hallf Oz deep state of depression.i feel this song was written for any one to listen to,but aslo was aimed directly my way,starting from now I'm going to listen to this everyday,did I waste all them years?not if I put things right and,things break,fall apart,but still still function good as before,or maybe ever better with the knowledge of what it takes to prevent it,enough said,time to play this again as I sweep that shit in the bin and start making use of the inspirational and hopefully life changing song thankyu😢😢
In regards to the verse about being a junkie, my hair stood up in my arms and neck. I can relate in some ways. This song has been on repeat since I discovered it yesterday.
I could listen to this song day in and day out. I know every word by heart. Such a masterpiece. So heartbreaking but also happy in a way that I can’t describe. I literally tear up every time that I listen to it.
the lyrics going from "and that's when I felt it, it conquered my heart" are what get me the most. Jacob really nails the feeling of coming out of a period of suffering and seeing the beauty of life anew because of it.
found this song on the way down to Cornwall back in the sum, bagged one of the signed 7" n listen to it everyday since LOVE THIS SONG!!!!! fills me with such an indescribable feeling
Remember the first time I heard this. I was drunk with a couple of mates in his room after a party and he said "hey, put this song on" as soon as I heard it I thought of my friends that i used to know and how all those years went by so fast. I saved it to my playlist immediately and every time I listen to this it, it takes me back to all those memories and feelings. this really is a great bit of song writing
"be more of a human less of a junkie" hit me really hard when I first heard this song. I was a year clean off of heroin and still had fractured relationships. I listen to a lot of music, past or present there haven't been many songs that struck that chord in me. Cheers
Sorry I'm a bit late to the party (Justin Hawkins bought me here) Great sound with loads of influences but with no outright copying Always a sign of a good band
This is the best piece of new music I have heard for years and years.
Agreed man. Really really good this. First I’d heard of them.
¿What other pieces would you recommend? :)
@@diegopazos3879 The song 'Lullaby' by a band called Kieth.
Same
@@diegopazos3879been stellar, they r really good

So true
this songs feels like crying alone in a room, but being somewhat happy about that
Yesss, great way of spelling it out
i love that
sadness happy
"you got a gift, man. Go and be something. If i was in your shoes, i would be jumping" something about the way he says those words makes them so real, I can't get over it.
It's the way he growls it in his punk vocal tone too
First thing I thought of when I heard this was the exchange between Will and Chuckie at the end of Good Will Hunting.
Reminds me of shame in the way they can cut through you with just a few well timed words
Some tune deserves to be on every radio station going
Christmas Day,4 am with my headphones blasting this piece of art
I find myself saying a million times a day “IF I WAS IN YOUR SHOES I WOULD BE JUMPING” thank you I love this song
Always makes me tear up 😭😭
Same man @@sirsnooozealot
Very good song. Listening to it on the recommendation of my son who incidentally woke me up at 0500 this morning coming in from a party. We will be having words.
this is possibly the best piece of music i have ever heard in my entire life. i want to live in this song
What a stunted, closed life you have.
This is so underrated, amazing sound and lyrics.
Totally agree! Amazing indeed!
That's honestly one of the best songs I've heard in a while ... the whole album is .... amazing
lou reed having a child with the sydney punk scene = wunderhorse and im here for it all day
Cub is so fucking top beginning to end, one of my fave albums for sure
This song is amazing. Randomly came up on my spotify and I played it back like 7 times.
crown jacob slater the king of england tbh.
I’m in a pub, slightly pissed and this just played. Love it.
This is one of my greatest finds of 2023. Absolutely phenomenal!!

saw them open for Fontaines dc in Galway they were unreal
This song gives you the feeling of nostalgia. And I don’t know how to describe it
I love your pfp
I’ll always remember the time that we met
It was somebody’s party
You were wearing that black dress
Clinging to shadows
Chameleon-esque
And we were together, when we were fifteen
But nothing is real then, you know what I mean
I slept with that dancer, I didn’t mean it
It was all in a dream babe, all in a dream
All in a dream
(Sorry)
And I hadn’t seen you in a couple of years
You’d been at the doctors
You called me in tears
“Jacob baby i’m broken! I can’t be fixed!
They think it’s my kidneys, they don’t know what it is
And how could this happen man, I’m just a kid
I’ve got something to live for, and so much to give
Now I live in a basement, a blade in my wrist
I think this is over, I think this is it
What if this is it man?”
And all of your friends, they say that they need you
When you need them they just get up and leave you
One of them said “I don’t care if this kills you”
What if it did Katie?
What if it killed her?
What would you do then?
Hope you’d be sorry
Hope you’d go to her grave, apologise for me
All the time that she gave you
Every time you were worried
That’s because she was your friend then
Hope that you’re sorry
Truly
And when I was using, she still said she loved me
Be more of a human, less of a junkie
You gotta give man, go and be something
If I was in your shoes, I would be jumping
And that’s when I felt it, encounter my heart
It was the light of a candle, in the depths of the dark
And there was a fire, it danced in your eyes
A beautiful world and a beautiful mind
A beautiful mind
A beautiful mind
A beautiful mind
you superstar!
Super late, but im pretty it's actually: "and that's when I felt it, it conquered my heart". Otherwise, great job!
some lyrics that. belter of a song
Love this.

this song was written for everyone, for you, and for me. really hope you're doing okay

Some song this. Found the album this week. This one is special!
I'm gonna play this song every damn day until I die.
I never realised humans could be so magical.
Thanks Jacob - you got me right in the feels.
Still listen to it everyday? Just curious :))
This is one of the best songs I’ve heard in years. Give it a few years and I’m sure this’ll have millions of views
Fancy seeing you here lad
@@WanderingPoet567 Orite Lad
1:00 wish this verse just went on forever
So sick man, glad to see you releasing music again
the lyrics going from "and that's when I felt it, it conquered my heart" are what get me the most. Jacob really nails the feeling of coming out of a period of suffering and seeing the beauty of life anew because of it.
What if it did Katie
Love that lyric so much
Is that a libertines reference
What if it killed ya
😳

You got a gift man go on be something if I was in your shoes I would be jumping. Take hold and grasp that concept whatever it is no matter what
Best song I’ve stumbled on in years, awesome, love the no chorus and the Beatleseque outro
Outro is slowed version of a song on Jacobs solo debut
I need friends with this music taste
The fact that this only has 180k views in 3 years is absolutely bonkers!
This band are going to be massive... i can feel it
Just discovering this band now. I love their sound. The whole Cub album is so varied. I especially love this song. The lyrics brought me to tears.
Remember the first time I heard this. I was drunk with a couple of mates in his room after a party and he said "hey, put this song on" as soon as I heard it I thought of my friends that i used to know and how all those years went by so fast.

Screaming this the car w my friends down to see u guys at boardies
"be more of a human less of a junkie" hit me really hard when I first heard this song. I was a year clean off of heroin and still had fractured relationships. I listen to a lot of music, past or present there haven't been many songs that struck that chord in me. Cheers
Congrats on staying sober, wunderhorse are truly amazing man they’re gonna be legendary and massive. We’re ogs!
I am an old man ,but i just love music ,what a band ,shades of Lou Reed and Lenard Cohen .
thinking about the lyrics to this song pulled me out of a bad trip, thank you very much Mr.Wunderhorse, see you in april
Absolutely stunning how well the lyrics go together with the way the song develops. That must be truthfulness. ❤
Sounds like life, indescribable but still beautiful
This played on the radio every single Sunday morning when I was a kid while my mum did the ironing. Love it just for the nostalgia lol
best song ever written
best song written in the last 5-10 years

"And when I was using, she still said she loved me
Be more of a human, less of a junkie"
i hope he blows up, so fresh
This is my favourite song ever in the whole world thx for listening
Deep lyrics there. Beautiful but made me cry.
YOU GOT A GIFT, MAN! GO AND BE SOMETHING 🗣️
Why can't I figure out what absolutely iconic classic rock and roll voice he sounds like. So good
i thought he sounded like lou reed personally.
Seriously one of the best songs ever
What a Band! Great Album! This song hits different 🤝🏼❤️
What if Lou Reid sang for The Killers
Fantastic song
Absolutely beautiful song
