Welled up a little first time I heard this NGL. I dunno man, this song sounds so personal, and some of the lines don’t paint a pretty picture. If this is the only full Castro album we get then at least it’s the absolute masterpiece we all knew he could deliver. A work of art.
I hope your doing Ok CaS ❤🙏🏾 …. I have a bad feeling in my gut …. And everything sort of fits … the song titles over the years…. The content … the name CASISDEAD…. the album Famous Last Words…. This song is last …. SKYDIVE…. 😢😞🥲😓. The oramorph…. Stay strong and whatever happens CAS … know you fucking touched a lot us…. For me one of the realest artists I have heard and felt… this album for me was everything I didn’t and did expect… A WORK OF SHEER BRILLIANCE… everything about it. The sound, the packaging, the music, the whole God damn thing …… this song is something else … it’s like I’m hearing my best friend telling me he’s not gonna be around for much longer 😓💔
This song completely messed me up listening to it after losing my Mum to cancer. All the references to oramorph, becoming thin etc. take me back to a very dark place. “But with the odds against me once again, can only hope that this note reaches them”. Sounds like CAS’s cancer is back 😓. You are by far my favourite artist in the U.K. CAS and we have been blessed with this album, it is a work of art. Big love ❤
Don’t think you can overstate how deep this track hits. The production is solemn but beautifully melodic. The bars punch me in the gut in the second verse, reminded me of my boys funeral and I lost it, how’s that for serendipity.
Special song, I think the soundscape and lyrics are really relatable to a lot of us. Makes me think about my twin brother. I need to live through him and make sure I enjoy the ride for the both of us.
Really enjoyed my first listen of the album then got to the last track and it blew the rest out of the water, real goosebumps, something in my eye track, Neil Tennant chorus complements the verses perfectly, love the backing track sounds a bit like the band Hammock
Sublime, absolutely sublime!! Standout tracks for me on the album, along with this one obviously have to be, Steptronic, Sarah Connor, Actin Up & Venom. The whole album is genius!
You should do a video for this, it's too beautiful not too would look amazing in an urban environment/our current society contrasted with thunder rain and the beautiful poetic genuine emotion you have put into this, truly amazing bro
"I know he's with us all the time, guide for a mind as messed up as mine, I pray he dont think any less of me now, when he looks down and sees me breaking down" After losing a great friend this year, those bars hit too deep..
Never would've expected a Cas & Neil Tennant collab though it's amazing how well his vocals compliment the Cas style. Especially mad that in a tune about old cassettes there's a genuine Pop Legend on featured vocals lol!
Cas has cancer guys read between the lines could feel bros soul in this one, god bless you brother been here since Castro saint days since c from t all the way G, never felt so proud of a artist from 🇬🇧 this is art man trust
Really worries me, the interview he had before this album dropped, the interviewer asked if he might be dying, cas simply said “listen to the album, and it’ll all become clear”, there’s something so cold about him constantly acknowledging the end within his music. However, I’m so glad we got an album, an absolute legend.
Cas is absolutely amazing. I’m glad he’s still coming with new stuff. I know it’s like he feels he didn’t want to anyone to know who he was but we need him to know that we all think he is a genius and just fucking brilliant. What a legend💪🏼
This it real. C thank you for this masterpiece. Read your recent interview, mate. If I cried listening to this, I’m sure your mum did too! This is a beautifully painful experience, can’t even describe how this makes me feel. This is raw, thank you Cas. Nobody even close to your level. Wishing you all the best mate, whatever the future holds @casisdead
Thank you cas you are in a league of your own your music lifts me and moves me makes me dance makes me cry makes me laugh you have a gift your an inspiration ♥
Cas old and cas new is the same as before this guys paints so manny pictures off so many different times good bad and old love his stuff absolute bangers 🤩
Theres something about 'sat on the second step' that gets me ffs. You can feel the metal banisters to your left. The breezeblock walls with the picked/peeling paint to your right. You can hear the grinder being hit toegther. Kids laughing and going mad out the front. Music and the olders chatting out the back. I sometimes find it hard to pay attention to this tune cause of where that takes me
Bought a hotel room last year when I'd been sofa surfing and homeless. I thought id have some time away from all the people and the stresses. I put this tune on and it made me think .. It wasn't anyone or anything hurting me other than myself. I laid there and had it on repeat and it made me realise the only person who was hurting me was me.
Everytime i hear this makes me contemplate my whole life. Anyone who is a real cas fan understands the feelings behind this song, because we equally as fucked up.
Been waiting for so long for this album and just like all the others cas you never disappoint. By far the most underrated god in the UK. Hope you get the true credit you deserve your a one of a kind artist inspired me for years to keep making music that matters to me👌🏻👌🏻your work is undefeated💪🏻❤️
The whole world will now experience the brilliance I've been listening to for 10 years
Same here my friend ❤😊 cas is so good long time coming these new tracks
It is sheer genius so poetic and deep
Them ones!!
Cass this the one cass!! Wish I could have a drink smoke line with you and chat about this one my g
Same, been listening since the first stuff, now our boy has made the uk top 10 albums! Proud he is finally getting the recognition he deserves
This guy is in a league of his own. No one comes close.
Neil Tennant brought me here.
CASISDEAD made me decide to stay for the future.

Yeah it scares me.
👍👏
C from T
Goosebumps
So glad you like it.we cas fans know the real deal in my opinion. ❤
the best to do it.
ayy man like Zac recognising the real 💚
True cas fans shed tears first time hearing this one ..
For real 😢❤
Not just me…..
For sure
Cry every time I listen to this, relate to it deeply
I started to cry, but I was at work. But I cried in the car before I left to go home. He saved the best for last.
I hope your doing Ok CaS ❤🙏🏾 …. I have a bad feeling in my gut …. And everything sort of fits … the song titles over the years…. The content … the name CASISDEAD…. the album Famous Last Words….

“But with the odds against me once again, can only hope that this note reaches them”. Sounds like CAS’s cancer is back 😓.
You are by far my favourite artist in the U.K. CAS and we have been blessed with this album, it is a work of art. Big love ❤
I hope your doing well brother,
Your mum's proud looking down on you 🖤
@ thank you very much mate. That means a lot. I hope so. Hope you’re good too man.
How is this not the most played song off this album? Touches a nerve. Seen and met cas in Dublin. Best in the UK.
When you're young you're immortal, time moves slow
I was in the moment, blinked, and I was old 😅😢
The best track on the album. Simply incredible.
This is food for the soul. Timeless.
Don’t think you can overstate how deep this track hits. The production is solemn but beautifully melodic.
The bars punch me in the gut in the second verse, reminded me of my boys funeral and I lost it, how’s that for serendipity.
Cas is such a fucking lyricist. The way he paints such vivid pictures with his words is truly unmatched. This man deserves all the flowers
On repeat repeat repeat repeat. Neil and Cas dovetailing brilliantly. Such a powerful tune. Lyrics deep. Masterpiece.
If this is the end Cas it has been a privilege to listen to your last words - the album has come together in a way I could never imagine.
💯

Pretty much my exact favourites as well.. 🔥
Totally agree it's a masterpiece
Jesus that's the Pet Shop Boys guy, I didn't recognize him by name but his voice is iconic. The features on this album are insane.
One of the only albums i can genuinely say was worth the wait. All these years.
Has to be the best song on the album so deep so meaningful some of us will relate in many ways rate him for voicing his pains
Neil is amazing on this great track
What a rare special piece of art this is. Belongs in a gallery. Absolutely incredible
You should do a video for this, it's too beautiful not too would look amazing in an urban environment/our current society contrasted with thunder rain and the beautiful poetic genuine emotion you have put into this, truly amazing bro
This song made me feel something which is rare for me with modern music, and even more rare in modern hiphop. Beautiful. Hope you are doing well Cas.
"I know he's with us all the time, guide for a mind as messed up as mine,
I pray he dont think any less of me now, when he looks down and sees me breaking down"
After losing a great friend this year, those bars hit too deep..
im with ya on that one brother
Sorry for your loss mate
@LukeyB777 thanks mate. Time dulls the pain but it's still there. That line just strikes too close to home
❤
Never would've expected a Cas & Neil Tennant collab though it's amazing how well his vocals compliment the Cas style.
Especially mad that in a tune about old cassettes there's a genuine Pop Legend on featured vocals lol!
Pet shop boys 👍🏽
His mum loves Pet Shop Boys, apparently.
Smoking a fat j at 4am listening to the album for the first time.
Had to pause this one, brought me to tears.
Peace brother ✌️
Cas has cancer guys read between the lines could feel bros soul in this one, god bless you brother been here since Castro saint days since c from t all the way G, never felt so proud of a artist from 🇬🇧 this is art man trust

no ones in lane...stick in g
"Got the results of my test, not impressed" something is definitely wrong.
Most things are curable these days. As long as one has will to carry on..
Felt them bars Cas... hit me hard broski 🔥
Honesty is a Value Bro..✌🏾💯 Deep Song
This is how you finish an album, emotional one man hope you enjoy the success ❤
The production on this album matches the lyrical genius
It baffles me how this guy isnt as big as he should be theres nobody in the scene like him. A modern unique story teller
because the percentage of empty people is way bigger than us.
Been playing this non stop since the album dropped. This is a masterpiece.
Yes cas get well💪👊 fast your one of the best.😎
Jheez he’s raised the bar again 💪🏼
Masterpiece!
Pray for CAS
Cas is absolutely amazing. I’m glad he’s still coming with new stuff. I know it’s like he feels he didn’t want to anyone to know who he was but we need him to know that we all think he is a genius and just fucking brilliant. What a legend💪🏼
This it real. C thank you for this masterpiece. Read your recent interview, mate. If I cried listening to this, I’m sure your mum did too! This is a beautifully painful experience, can’t even describe how this makes me feel. This is raw, thank you Cas. Nobody even close to your level. Wishing you all the best mate, whatever the future holds @casisdead

I feel you more than you know
Theres something about 'sat on the second step' that gets me ffs. You can feel the metal banisters to your left. The breezeblock walls with the picked/peeling paint to your right. You can hear the grinder being hit toegther. Kids laughing and going mad out the front. Music and the olders chatting out the back.
