This song feels like letting go of the gravity of things while still going forward in the midst of uncertainties and hardships. Its a really strong a relatable feeling... especially now...
An absolute gem!!! Gorgeous vocal melody and harmonies. Loving the production here too, stripped back and evenly doing it's own thing through the mix. Loving the percussive groove of the guitars and what sounds like a lovely backwards crushed percussive beat/hand clap. Gorgeous. Also... Lovely, lovely lyrics as always from you Brookln. 11/10
Discovered your concert at Kulturkirche Köln. Thats what brought me here. I love your way of walkdancing, as I hike a lot the song is a very good company, so funny and the flowy rhythm makes me smile.
Seit einigen Tagen höre ich nach einer Empfehlung eines Freundes Deine Musik. Es sind so viele schöne und schon beim ersten Hören mitreißende Songs, die ohne viel Schnickschnack mit einer Leichtigkeit daherkommen, welche mit den einfachen aber pfiffigen Videoclips ganz wunderbar zusammen harmonieren. Aber ganz besonders gefällt mir "This Here Island" mit diesem wundervollen Chorus. Abgesehen von der einnehmenden Melodie berührt mich beim Refrain der Klang des Gesangs. Da ist diese zweite tiefere Stimme, welche das Falsetto unterstützt. - Was für ein wirkungsvoller Effekt! Einfach großartig! 🤩👏 Und ganz ehrlich, so ulkig Deine Moves teilweise auch aussehen mögen, sie zeugen doch von einer bewundernswerten Lässigkeit. - Vielen Dank für's hochladen! 🙏
It was such a coincidence that I found this song but since that day I can't stop listening to it. Everything about that song is beautiful, thank you very much, your music is a gem ❤️ Greetings from the Czech republic 🇨🇿
Entendue sur une radio en France. Merveilleux artiste. J’espère avoir la chance de vous voir en concert bientôt en Europe (France?) Merci pour ce que vous faites, vous êtes un véritable soleil dans mes journées…
I love your voice and music. I have discovered you yesterday and I’m a huge fan already. You are so grand !!! I wish you could come and play in London. Sooo talented!!!!!
Man something about this chorus, paired with the hat... has a very mystic timeless vibe. Not the usual type for me, came for the sick moves, stayed for the cosmic
I found this song in Spotify "Mix of the week" 10 days ago put it to my playlist and... enjoyed it more and more! I picked my guitar Am, F, D - C G D and played and played and forgot all the problems nowerdays regarding C.... Firefox showed me the way to DEKKER and... WOW! I bought 2 tickets for me and my wife in Muenster/Germany - ;-) See you in May 22 and I will try to learn to dance as "mystic" as shown in the video! Cu Dekker! Take care! Great Music!
I heard a snippet of this as the soundtrack to the German version of "I am a celebrity, get me out of here" on TV and had to shazam it immediately. Now you've got a new fan! This is a great song with an irresistable hook and a video that makes me smile. I'm working my way through all your other songs, one by one. My next great discovery: "A better way". These dance moves! Dear Dekker, please keep your head/hat up. Best wishes from Anna
@@DekkerBrookln Not exactly, sorry. Must have been in the second week, only a few days before the end. In the same episode I found parts of songs like "In the shadows" by Amy Stroup, "Wish you well" by Benjamin Ian Cocks and "Into the fire" by 13 Senses - if this is helpful to you. Btw, in my 1st comment, I made a mistake: of course the hook is "irresistible"!
Thanks to Radio Zusa from Germany I Listen to your wonderful music!! Great artist you are. You should be noticed much much more!! Hope you will soon because your music makes happy. If you're getting more successfully too will that make you more Happy?? Love Kaddi
Love your music buddy👌. It’s unique but it’s so universal, it’s a mixture of both that has my head spinning, no matter what mood I’m in I can always relate to it one way or another, your a fucking genius and your music is on par👍
I reside in New Zealand but cannot get any of his albums over here......besotted with the sound and lyrics....want his 3 albums on vinyl.... can anyone offer assistance
Everyone here can explain where they heard the song. I cant, but it feels so damn familiar. I must have heard it somewhere because I could hum in my head to the melody instantly. Besides that, awesome song, congratulations!
I absolutely love the inventive video. Totally out of the ordinary. But what's the idea behind it guys? I just listened to the song since morning and it gives me this feeling of peace, whereas the video is kind of cardio. I am sure there's a deep explanation tho
@@jeneriffa Ha! Yes! How embarrassing! About as far as we Are gonna go Look at us We are dog-piling Will it fade - I won’t pretend to know When all our fear is strung out on the snow And all the love we feel, the drain of blood And if we all fall out If the bottom drops out I hope that we share ground On this here island And if we all fall out I hope that we share ground On this here island How can we ever be The way we were Come with me Let’s go unwind it Are we too late - We can’t yet know When all our fear is strung out on the snow And all the love we feel, the drain of blood And if we all fall out If the bottom drops out I hope that we share ground On this here island if we all fall out I hope that we share ground On this here island
It's a puzzle to me how this track (and Small Wins) hasn't been listened to more than this. I know artists don't always like labelling their work but how would you describe your music? I need this info when I'm recommending you to my friends! :) Love from Cyprus!
this song is so beautiful.. I had so many moments with this song.. when are you live in germany? I want to share my passion about this song with you :')

About as far as we
Are gonna go
Look at us
We are dog-piling
Will it fade - I won’t pretend to know
When all our fear is strung out on the snow
And all the love we feel, the drain of blood
And if we all fall out
If the bottom drops out
I hope that we share ground
On this here island
And if we all fall out
I hope that we share ground
On this here island
How can we ever be
The way we were
Come with me
Let’s go unwind it
Are we too late - We can’t yet know
When all our fear is strung out on the snow
And all the love we feel, the drain of blood
And if we all fall out
If the bottom drops out
I hope that we share ground
On this here island
if we all fall out
I hope that we share ground
On this here island
