love , love this, listen to new music on youtube everyday for years , first time ever to comment, brilliant , killer lyrics, come play Ireland, i know u will get some reception.
I was shorter than my dad's dining table You were taller than my bedroom door frame Hit me hard when I found height don't make a man, no You grew smaller to me that Saturday when You came crashing, crawling down through the back brush Eyes were bloodshot and your leaden voice thin You said, "I won't blame you now," but I caught your cold somehow Then you jumped right in Oh, I wanna give you all of my love But I watched you sink as they swam above You are the land and I am the dove My heart is heavy when you're high So, for me, why won't you try? Said you're sorry you were drinking through the day, then Only stopped to let your lungs take the hit You said, "I won't blame you now," but you lost my love somehow Then you jumped right in Oh, I wanna give you all of my love But I watched you sink as they swam above You are the land and I am the dove My heart is heavy when you're high So, for me, why won't you try?
this song is so totally captivating - I've had it on repeat for two days straight! keep making tunes like this and you are going to go so so far, you have so much talent it's oustanding
It hurts to love an addict. It hurts that you can never truly be with them because you know they keep crashing and hurting themselves and everyone around them but you try anyways because you care. Its like a cat and mouse game until you finally learn to let them go or worse

The more I listen it takes me oddly to a good time when I was doing my VCE! 17years ago!! Something anxty ,raw ,awkward , daggy but cool. I'd have had a massive crush on her back then if she was around back then.
Can someone explain this music video? I've watched it a thousand times and I can't really figure out a metaphor that works. The only thing that I can think of conceptually is that the male character is stuck in aggressive/obsessive/narcissistic routine (drug, alcohol abuse) whereas Julia is around in a flowing motion, as if theres some sort of ignorance on both sides (his addiction, or abuse, her longing). Also, at 1:40 he is physically "running circles around her" as if there is an ego aspect to the relationship. I'm not sure, maybe someone can help?
She weaves a lot of metaphors an imagery of codependency, abuse (it's entitled motivations, its inherent dehumanization). In the end her entire world revolves around him, even her private fantasies become a performance for him, so why not climb up and join him in his addiction and self absorbtion. It's a beautiful visual metaphor on how predators can rope the people they trick into loving them into self destructive behaviors.

The "my heart is heavy when you're high" line is huge
Best. Dancing. Ever.
Julia Jacklin's voice never fails to bring a tear to my eyes. Such a beautiful gift to the world.
Speechless for how amazing this song is
So much of her artistry is amazing
Best song I’ve heard in a while wtf.... this song is amazing
I love those songs where the lyrics are very painful and sad but the tune suggests other wise and it's so amazing and I love it so much oh my god
I loved this song the first time I heard it on Triple J. Just awesome!!
Reminds me of Angel Olsen - very lovely ♡
Ella King this one reminds me of Unfucktheworld quite a bit
My first thought too. Very similar melody, but that's fine with me.
The chords are the same! The melody is very similar... I think "quite a bit" is putting it lightly.
Can't believe this awesome song has less than a million views.
ikr love it ❤️
this song made me feel so many emotions-good and bad and I love it
This song has so much meaning
love , love this, listen to new music on youtube everyday for years , first time ever to comment, brilliant , killer lyrics, come play Ireland, i know u will get some reception.
Playing Dublin on November 11th Pat!
i love the slow motion of this video clip, and the ambience of the lighting
Charming video, Julia.
holy moly so good
So excited to see Julia Jacklin live in December!
I was shorter than my dad's dining table
You were taller than my bedroom door frame
Hit me hard when I found height don't make a man, no
You grew smaller to me that Saturday when
You came crashing, crawling down through the back brush
Eyes were bloodshot and your leaden voice thin
You said, "I won't blame you now," but I caught your cold somehow
Then you jumped right in
Oh, I wanna give you all of my love
But I watched you sink as they swam above
You are the land and I am the dove
My heart is heavy when you're high
So, for me, why won't you try?
Said you're sorry you were drinking through the day, then
Only stopped to let your lungs take the hit
You said, "I won't blame you now," but you lost my love somehow
Then you jumped right in
Oh, I wanna give you all of my love
But I watched you sink as they swam above
You are the land and I am the dove
My heart is heavy when you're high
So, for me, why won't you try?

Julia- do you direct all of these videos? I notice a similar style. If so, you are talented beyond belief. Just discovered your music today. Amazing.
Haunting for sure xox
Just discovered you, love the tunes and the vid is classic
Wooow! Merci Beaucoup♥️ C’est magnifique!
This song is like the words my heart cries out about my alcoholic father...
I'm sorry to hear that! How lovely is it that songs can sometimes make sense of our feelings better than our brains
me about my mum
This video is really poignant if you see it as a man who is haunted by the death of his childhood sweetheart.

Elle Kirova Audrey's Dance :)

Balázs Varga I saw her open for them and fell in love with her music
It hurts to love an addict. It hurts that you can never truly be with them because you know they keep crashing and hurting themselves and everyone around them but you try anyways because you care. Its like a cat and mouse game until you finally learn to let them go or worse
My arms do not have to go to the gym after this song. That’s for sure. This song is a piece of art! ✨

I thought it was:
You are the wren and I am the dove
I listen to this over 3 or 4 times a week... Its galluss as we say it Scotland..
Thanks God for letting me know this amazing singer ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Think of Michael Phelps, and that he still chooses smoking weed over his girlfriend
