My daughter lost her first tooth tonight. As we reveled in that and she ate her bedtime snack (before brushing her teeth of course) we did as you asked and this amazing song became part of our night. Wonderful night. :)
When I listen to your songs, they become my life at that moment. I have nothing else to go about. I know how weird that must sound, but that's the effect they have on me. :)
Woke up to a rainy morning before work, threw open the window even though it was cold & sat down & listened to this song with eyes closed. I've struggled with depression for a few years now & I had a good long time where I couldn't listen to any somber music because it would make me too sad. But this.. this is sad, but somehow healing. It makes sadness bearable, something I can hold & nurse into something easier. It makes me feel real feelings instead of emptiness. Thank you for making it.
the whole album makes for good study music. Also when I day dream I get to picture this pretty lady. Trick is to never let anyone else hear what I'm listening to lol.
I am so happy and blessed to have found your music. You sing for an otherwise silenced soul. Thank You for your contribution to society. Just. Thank You.
i'm from brazil and i like your music so much,i showed to my friends and family,everybody loved.Thank you for share your gift with us!Sorry my terrible english!
Dear Lauren, This morning, this song playing in the background, I opened the shades and looked outside for a minute, then made my bed with you. Thank you for making beautiful music.
thanks. art, at it's best, obligates. action, change, thought, movement. this song has made me do a couple of things. cop your album and pick up my guitar. so, thanks for the gift. it's helped convert a crappy, pretty jagged day into a night that feels like it'll shine it's way well into the rest of the week. your music is generous, and i'm grateful.
Lauren, if a 58 year old can enjoy this song, it says a lot.. in all it's simplicity, it is a exceptionally well done song. I can appreciate the song even more at this age because the past regrets brings forth the message of the music..thanks for sharing and glad to watch your career move up, vera
I don't know why, but the "Let it be apart of your life" sign got my eyes all watery. Then I was sobbing for the rest of the song. But it was a kind of sob that made me hug my laptop and wish I was hugging Lauren to congratulate her for doing something wonderful with her life. I love those kinds of sobs.
You know, the kind of music you put up here isn't what I normally listen to, but damn. Every song is beautiful, especially this one. I don't remember when I subscribed, but I remember finding your stuff one day and just sitting and listening.
I watched the windstorm outside my bedroom window while listening to this. It was one of those times where you felt like you lived in a moment instead of moving from one to the next. Thanks.
You and your music are part of my life for about 3 years. You were there in the good and the bad moments, making me happyer, and some times sadder(but I don't regret). Your music had great impact in my life, and I'm who I'm now part because of you and what you choosed to do with your life. So I want you to be proud, cause i think I turned out to be an OK guy, and it's your fault. Thank you specially for: 1988(I'm from 88 too!), I Don't Mind, Levers and Gears, Tangled Up Kites, The Same Things
Just a quick thought or two. If a song touches people for only the time it plays, you are doing something wrong. A good song becomes a part of the listener's life for all time. You do that for me, Lauren. YOU are wonderful! Keep it up. ; )
I live in Mexico City. I don't know if you've heard about these things, but there have been around 429 small (and not so small) earthquakes in the past month. While this video played, my house started to shake... it shook bad... So there. You were part of it all. Kudos on the soothing voice!
This song is one of the most beautiful I've ever heard. I will just sit for an hour or two at a time listening to it. The new album is fantastic, too. If Found/Gravity blows my mind every time.
whether i hear your music or not, whether i ever experiance you playing it or not, because you have created it as part of existance it is part of you and part of me because we are all one and equal and not just with which we have experianced or got to know as consciousness. stop giving into fears and judgements, express yourself freely within and as music and sound and frequencies and within ad as existance itself. and consider the camera "burnt in" miagery :D
marvelous song...I am really enjoying the new CD... come to SOUTH CAROLINA..... one day. Just get close. Last 4 concerts I went to see were Merle Haggard, James Taylor, Prince, and Willie Nelson... I'd like you to be next on my concert list. please and thank you. (tracey) :)
Lauren, you are such an amazing artist. I wish I could go see you play live but I'm all the way in Taiwan. Looking forward to, hopefully, many more releases from you. Best, Chris
I've been listening to the song all day. And it just makes me calm...and I don't know... I'm accepting my day much better with the sound of your music! THANK YOU!
This is amazing. I'm sure EVERYONE says this, but it feels as though you opened a door into my head and wrote a song about my innermost thoughts. Also, sometimes I wonder if you and Allie Brosh (bloggess of Hyperbole and a Half) are the same person.
Because you had me minimize the window and focus on something else while the song played I didn't really hear the lyrics. I did hear the music and the tone of the song. I really enjoyed it. I'm going to listen to it again sometime, and I look forward to enjoying it more then. Thank you for your talent, it has been a joy in my life.
I'm listening to this album freshly bought and writing my final paper for my favorite class in college so far. your music inspires me. I think you've single handedly written every emotion I've ever had down perfectly. and turned it in to some of the most beautiful honest music I've ever heard. Thank you.
This Has Made Me Happy A Lot...:) Thank You.I'm Trying To Learn Your Song Levers And Gears For My Friend...He Has Cancer....And He Doesn't Have Long To Live...But That Song Reminds Me Of Him...So I Want To Play It All The Time So I Wont Forget Him...Thank You..For Your Music...Never Stop Doing What Your Doing..
Pretty sure I was guided to your video a few moments ago. My beautiful wife is going to start chemotherapy soon, and we have to be apart for the first part. Skype helps; almost like being there, but it's not the same. Your song really resonated and brought up deep feelings that I've been holding back, because I have to be the strong one for her. It will be rough for all of us, but mostly for her. We'll get through, and I'll keep telling her that Things Are Alright. Thank you for sharing.
Lauren your songs are so wonderful and they really grab the heart. There are just no words to really describe this, but beautiful and sad come to mind.
You definitely aren't alone in that regard. I think I could honestly list her as number 1 and 2 on my top 10 favorite artists. She's that amazing haha.
This is the most amazing song I have heard in a very long time. I just happened to find your music as of yesterday and I am completely in love with all of your songs. Keep up the good work! Plan on buying your album.
You are wonderful. And your music gets better and better every time I hear you. Thank you for being a part of my life for a few minutes. I drew some really kool pictures.
You do a really good job, Lauren, of writing songs that I can really connect with. It seems like we share a lot of the same difficulties in life, and we solve problems in a lot of the same ways. I'm not a big poetry fan, so it's not usually the lyrics of a song that I like, and certainly not individual lines. But your music, I love for the sound, but even more for the words and the message.
Just wanna tell u that your music is Beautiful. I stumbled across your video by complete chance. I accidently clicked on this video as my screen shifted. I'm now caught by your voice. I have shared this video on my facebook!!!!!
This song sent a spark all the way to my soul. You have a beautiful voice, Thank you for sharing it with the world! you've made me smile!! which is hard right now since half my face it numb thanks to a dental procedure lol
Lemon pudding. I absolutely love your work. Amazing voice, great arrangements, and lyrics that always hit where it counts. Thank you so much sharing your work, and keep up the fantastic job!
your wonderful music keeps me coming back to your channel time and time again...your a brilliant talent, keep doing what you do. Thanks for the songs...i like humming them in the shower!
brilliant Lauren. like always... bringing me a smile for your curious and adorable creativity. beautiful song. I played it loudly and finished putting my dinner dishes away. here's to you!
My daughter lost her first tooth tonight. As we reveled in that and she ate her bedtime snack (before brushing her teeth of course) we did as you asked and this amazing song became part of our night. Wonderful night. :)

A decade later and I still love this song
I love these lyrics so much. This song and same things are tied for my favorite
the whole album makes for good study music. Also when I day dream I get to picture this pretty lady. Trick is to never let anyone else hear what I'm listening to lol.
I am so happy and blessed to have found your music. You sing for an otherwise silenced soul. Thank You for your contribution to society. Just. Thank You.
All Praise Be Unto the Magic Singing Lamp!!!!!
i'm from brazil and i like your music so much,i showed to my friends and family,everybody loved.Thank you for share your gift with us!Sorry my terrible english!
Dear Lauren,
This morning, this song playing in the background, I opened the shades and looked outside for a minute, then made my bed with you.
Thank you for making beautiful music.
This song is heart-breaking... and I thank you for it.
thanks. art, at it's best, obligates. action, change, thought, movement. this song has made me do a couple of things. cop your album and pick up my guitar. so, thanks for the gift. it's helped convert a crappy, pretty jagged day into a night that feels like it'll shine it's way well into the rest of the week. your music is generous, and i'm grateful.

I love those kinds of sobs.
Ah the lyrics, the feeling, the disillusionment, the things we are all thinking but not having the talent to express ! Thank you Lauren !
You know, the kind of music you put up here isn't what I normally listen to, but damn. Every song is beautiful, especially this one. I don't remember when I subscribed, but I remember finding your stuff one day and just sitting and listening.
I watched the windstorm outside my bedroom window while listening to this. It was one of those times where you felt like you lived in a moment instead of moving from one to the next. Thanks.
This song was part of my silent after hours (and perhaps it'll be again one day). Thank you, you are awesome.
Lauren, YOU are wonderful!
You guys. This and rainy mood is like...yersh.
the lyrics, the lyrics, wow...the lyrics. some songwriters just say it so much better.
This song is beautiful.
One of the most important songs in my life, 10 years on. Thank you, Lauren.
its pretty messed up that im a grown man and 9/10ths of your songs will make me cry.... i absoultely love your music!! keep doing what your doing!!
Holy Crap, that one kinda hit hard...great song
I love your music so much!!! Please don't ever quit!
Chills....Absolute Chills...
Thank you for giving my life three minutes and fifty-eight seconds of complete and total peace.
What a calming sane influence at the end of my stressful day. Thank you.
You and your music are part of my life for about 3 years. You were there in the good and the bad moments, making me happyer, and some times sadder(but I don't regret).

This was just... wonderfulness. I'm actually quite speechless because I love this so much.
am listening on & on - it´s really beautiful and touching deeply - love it
Very moving.
My wife is an artist, I know what artist look like and you are truly an artist! Please keep doing what you do.
No Lauren...it's you who are WONDERFUL! Thank you for such a beautiful song
Now I bought your Shakes album, and it was good. But this album, holy crap, this one is mind blowing.
Pure liquid sound. Shimmering in the refraction of harmony. Thank you for letting this out of your soul.
I live in Mexico City. I don't know if you've heard about these things, but there have been around 429 small (and not so small) earthquakes in the past month. While this video played, my house started to shake... it shook bad... So there. You were part of it all. Kudos on the soothing voice!

I really loved that.
Thanks to you Lauren, I just Love listening to you sing, besides you're sure more wonderful than me!
This song. I can't. Lauren O'Connell, I'm in love with your music in a big way. Thank you for creating it.
No Lauren, thank you for sharing your gift! If you were in our house you would hear your music in the background frequently!
whether i hear your music or not, whether i ever experiance you playing it or not, because you have created it as part of existance it is part of you and part of me because we are all one and equal and not just with which we have experianced or got to know as consciousness.

Minimize this window and stop looking at those wonderful eyes ? Don't think so.
Keep doing what you're doing, you're incredible.
This song kills me in the heart region. Thank you for your music.
beautiful
you are wonderful Lauren..
Always good to hear original music... especially when it is good enough to not have to watch..
You are wonderful
Aha~! This was my favourite song on the album~!
Love you Lauren! :D

I don't know why but this song breaks my heart...but in a good way...if that makes any sense? Your music makes my day worth living.
Thanx for putting into words-out-loud things often too shifty to allow themselves to be held up to the light.
Lauren I'm loving your music from Sydney Australia.
I love the choice you made to make this video sit still. Gorgeous song.
Lauren amazing! I Love your miusic.
Well, there's everything I've been feeling neatly packaged into one gorgeous song.
Thank you.
The world needs peolpe like you
Your songs are so relaxing, so sweet.Helps me as I work on guitars.
Pretty sure I was guided to your video a few moments ago. My beautiful wife is going to start chemotherapy soon, and we have to be apart for the first part. Skype helps; almost like being there, but it's not the same. Your song really resonated and brought up deep feelings that I've been holding back, because I have to be the strong one for her.

Gracias. Por hacer esta música. Llena de sutilizas y matices. Bravo!
You definitely aren't alone in that regard. I think I could honestly list her as number 1 and 2 on my top 10 favorite artists. She's that amazing haha.
Listen several times over Lauren. ❤🇦🇺
LAUREN O'CONNEL YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL SOUL
I love song writing it's so genuine and yet it still feels so creative and artistic. Honest beautiful expression is the hardest thing to do.
Cards made me smile. Beautiful album. So glad I bought it.
That was beautiful, Lauren. And, didn't need a video.
Lauren I've been stressed as hell recently, verging on a wee breakdown, and then I heard this. And everything was OK.
beautiful songwriter. i cried!
Lovely song. Has a real "Jewel" feel about it. Really nice tone and feel.
Added to favorites. Which I don't do lightly nowadays. Excellent work.
I was in the middle something and this song helped to make it all better. Thank you Lauren, YOU are wonderful :)
Goes well with my grey rainy day. Thanks its moving.
I couldn't help but start playing a little cello accompaniment. You are beautiful and wonderful.
This is the most amazing song I have heard in a very long time. I just happened to find your music as of yesterday and I am completely in love with all of your songs. Keep up the good work! Plan on buying your album.
Love this album.
You are wonderful. And your music gets better and better every time I hear you. Thank you for being a part of my life for a few minutes. I drew some really kool pictures.
This is the most played song from your album on my iTunes. So beautiful. Cheers Lauren!
t lauren i've been listening to this song almost every day since release. also that's an awesome lamp.
I find your voice very calming and your music is so relaxing. it gives such a good comfy mood.
It is amazing how so little can make so much beauty.
You do a really good job, Lauren, of writing songs that I can really connect with. It seems like we share a lot of the same difficulties in life, and we solve problems in a lot of the same ways. I'm not a big poetry fan, so it's not usually the lyrics of a song that I like, and certainly not individual lines. But your music, I love for the sound, but even more for the words and the message.
