One of the best songs ever? Absolutely! I listened to this last night while I was about to sleep, and I literally almost cried because I felt the passion to such an extent.
I have loved Andrew's music since I was fourteen and was given a burned copy of Konstantine by an older friend. Ten years later, I'm still in awe of the man and the beauty of what he makes. This is the most intimate and powerful song I know. Thank you, Andrew McMahon.
I get goosebumps just from the first notes, then he sings and I melt. Jack's Mannequin is magic and Andrew Mcmahon is an inspiration and a saviour for many. We love you.
I saw him in concert in Orlando a few months back. Best concert I've ever seen. At one point he was so into the song he was playing the piano with his fist (effing wailing on it). He then proceeded to jump up on the piano and finish the song. This is my favorite song.
Dear Jesus. The way he sings the word 'rebirth', the way that last note catches at the end of the second syllable. Pretty sure that's what raw, unfettered emotion sounds like. Can I like, bottle it and keep it to listen to whenever I want, or something, because it's fucking beautiful.
This is such as inspirations and emotionfelt song. It sends chills down my spine to learn about what Andrew had to go through. What a strong man to be singing about this. He's amazing.
Baela he played it in columbus on his transit anniversary tour, i bawled my eyes out such a strong song, and he got so drunk after the show that night, ive never seen him drink so much, it messes with him to even play it
I know this isn't one of his most popular songs, but I seriously would call this song one of my favorites. It is easily the most powerful, most emotional song, hands down. I really hope I get to see him perform this live someday.
I feel the exact same way.. I first heard Jack's Mannequin when I was 13 and I'm 19 now... I immediately fell in love Andrew McMahon had a huge impact on me
omigoose, close your eyes and just listen... it sounds like he's singing to you in you ear!!! (or maybe im just really tired) but this is such a good song and andrew is soooo talented
i dont even agree with you (im a very causal mcmahon listener) but i completely understand how you feel about it. great things often only grow greater with time. especially with so much emotion like this music.
The first line of "Caves" is: I'm caught somewhere in between alive and living in a dream. He had been sleeping or falling asleep when he heard this in his head and jumped out of bed to play it out on the piano. I think DJPLAYFUL1's right; it was around 3 or 4 AM.
I'm caught Somewhere in between Alive And living a dream. No peace Just clicking machines In the quiet of compazine. The walls caved in on me. And she sings My bird dressed in white. And she stings My arm in the night. I lay still Still I'm ready to fight. Have my lungs But you can't take my sight. The walls caved in Tonight. And out here I watch the sun circle the earth The marrows collide in rebirth In God's glory praise The spirit calls out from the caves. The walls fell and there I lay Saved.
I've uploaded the full song on my channel, go have a look if you're interested. It's called "Caves - Jack's Mannequin (Full Studio Version)" you could just search it up if you're interested.
i feel like ever since thumbs up and down for comments came out, everyone tries to get a thumbs up so they say something they think is intelligent. lol
He's my hero! This is just beautiful idk how else to describe it.

@Taydiggity03 That is so beautiful, I have been touched just by reading it.
i dont even agree with you (im a very causal mcmahon listener) but i completely understand how you feel about it. great things often only grow greater with time. especially with so much emotion like this music.
I adore this guy's voice! 'Swim' is still my favourite song of theirs to date - any other suggestions of their stuff I should have a look at? Cheersx
fucking stunning. no words can even describe this.
The first line of "Caves" is:
I'm caught somewhere in between alive and living in a dream.
He had been sleeping or falling asleep when he heard this in his head and jumped out of bed to play it out on the piano. I think DJPLAYFUL1's right; it was around 3 or 4 AM.
the only crappy thing about this is the camera moving around. everything else is amazing.
@madcrazygenius and I love you too Cassie :) this video is the best!
i like how he never sings with his eyes open thats gotta make playin the piano that much harder
Andrew McMahon is just....amazingly talented
I'm caught
Somewhere in between
Alive
And living a dream.
No peace
Just clicking machines
In the quiet of compazine.
The walls caved in on me.
And she sings
My bird dressed in white.
And she stings
My arm in the night.
I lay still
Still I'm ready to fight.
Have my lungs
But you can't take my sight.
The walls caved in
Tonight.
And out here
I watch the sun circle the earth
The marrows collide in rebirth
In God's glory praise
The spirit calls out from the caves.
The walls fell and there I lay
Saved.
What do you mean? He wrote this for The Glass Passenger. This song was his way of "dealing with the sick thing"
Yes he writes them all watch the interviews. He talks about waking up at 3 or 4am with idea's for songs.
Go stargazing to this song

He's like a good wine or a delicious cheese.
Or he's both a delicious cheese paired with good wine? ;)
