Fun fact: Gregory Alan Isakov creates music as a side job! He is actually a farmer who grows fresh produce for his local restaurants!
Fun fact: He kicks citizen cope in the ass. Oh wait, he's not from South Africa too. No reason to compare. Anywho, he went to Naropa dude. The idea he has a self that exist would anger Chogyam Trungpa. Let's not go speaking blasphemy about the reincarnation of Kerouac and the destroyer of the German automobile aka Big black car.
@Dangerous Joy divine nonchalance thank u very much

@@benp9433 lol what
a quote that really helps me is “I’m not where i want to be, but thank God I’m not where I was.”
God Bless you all. Have a good night.
Beautiful quote
Awesome quote. Thank you.
Try this for size ...I'm not where I wanna be, but Blessed BUDDHA take me back to where I use to be ?
I just got rejected from my top school. As a high school senior, worrying about my future on a daily basis, it was no surprise that I broke into tears all day. I feel like I let myself down and I couldn’t contain my emotions. Then, I remembered this album.
It makes me feel alive. Makes me feel that special moment in life where I realize that me, breathing and living, is simply enough.
Everyone has this expectation of me. As student council president, varsity track + leadership for 4 years, founder of my own club, member of a state asb board, community member, etc. This makes me truly just feel human, without any of those titles.
May God continue to Bless you all.
God will place you exactly where you need to be. Bloom where you’re planted. All will be well. Believe it. God has already blessed you. My prayers for your peace of mind. Isn’t this the BEST album! ❤️
I teach absolutely brilliant high school kids, many of them get into the best schools in the country, like Harvard, Dartmouth, Cal Tech, Rice, Columbia, UVA and Stanford just to name a few of the schools from the last couple of years my students made it into to.
Some of the top students kids don't make it into one of these Ivy Leagues and some of the kids that I would say, are still brilliant, but not a top student, do. Some of the best students I've had will go to various state schools across the country and many stay in state. Some of them go to the best public schools in the state like UT or A&M, some go to second rate Universities like UH, and some go to third tier universities despite being a better student that got accepted into the better schools (sometimes this is to be close to family or because of financial reasons, may of my students are lower or working class).
But they all end up just fine, and happy, and with good degrees. Going to a top college doesn't determine who you are and what you will do. Don't get me wrong, those programs are usually great, but I've known plenty of people from Rice or Harvard that could barely function and plenty of people from "lesser schools" to become top in their field.
The name of a university is not much more than a status symbol, the quality of an education is determined by what you put into your own growth.
@@kathrynmccann4730 Bloom where you’re planted. I love it. Thank you for the kind message (: 🤍
@@moleratical1232 wow. Thank you so much for the kind words. I truly appreciate you writing the message above with such encouragement towards the future. Luckily, I am proud to say that my mindset is in a much better space now.
This fall, I will be attending the University of Southern California as my families financial status allows me to go tuition-free. This option turned out to be the most beneficial option for my future endeavors and I am willing to work hard and trust that everything does happen for a reason. I cant wait to start school in a month and look back at this message as moral support.
I wish you the best and thank you for being a role model even outside of the classroom setting. We need more teachers like you!!! (:
Hey! I hope things have been working out for you ❤️ just know that you’re a lot more than the titles. YOU get to define who you are. You are you, you are whoever you want to be. You’re a beautiful person who’s worth more than their accomplishments.
Be well 👍
I randomly met this guy who was traveling across America by train and he told me to listen to this. I'm so glad he did :)
Hive Atlas um, dude, G. Alan travels all the time, u sure it wasn't him?...
JDB 1113 Yes, his name was Justin. Awesome guy :)
Hive Atlas Oh my god! I remember you!!! What's up man?

I'm hearing this again after a long time. This time I feel something else. Everytime I come to gregory he has something else to offer, something new, something calming, something that no one has ever offered me. I choose to take it all. I choose to take all the music inside my heart. As much as I can hold in me. Because honestly right now I don't feel sane. I'm tormented with emptiness and nothing makes sense. Atleast this does and I don't wanna let this go. This is precious. This is home. This is like my mother's lap. This is my lover's arms holding me. This is everything that I ever loved and found peace in. I want to survive just through this peace.
I really don't know if spamming here is good or not. But I feel like venting things out.
So maybe you'll get my new comments every once in a while.
I’ve been struggling with my first semester of college. Most of my classes just don’t seem to have a purpose. I honestly don’t know if I would have done any better if covid hadn’t happened because I’ve had this feeling for a while. But today, I sat & listened to this. Without even thinking about it, I opened my textbook for the first time this week. Sometimes it just takes a small sense of hope to remind someone of the potential life has to offer
I feel the same and I thank you for saying what I have to say
@@briangabonada7714 Keep pushing through, guys. I’m a junior and freshman year was the worst for me. It was a struggle but I came out a stronger person with a better perspective in the end.
@@gigahorse1475 I dropped out and failed after my best friend of 10 years died, got into loads of drugs and just worked part time for years as a glass collector. I'm now 25 and work as an IT Analyst. Been through a lot and victory is never a straight path. Lost a lot of people on the way but now I'm finally at a place where I can look forward and plan travelling and music festivals and just loving life. I've arrived.
@@Elendil513 Your story is too powerful for a reaction. Thanks for sharing. 💗
Wow, you made me cry while listening to this beautiful music
hey if you're out there reading this - i miss you.
your mind... your laugh, your face, your smile... your voice. its been too long.
As a coincidence, I found this and it's beautiful
So future me, if you ever get back here, remember coincidence is the best of life. Live for it. You'll find the stories and poems for you all around. Don't be scared. Roads are rough but we have to walk along. Have an awesome day my heart.
Gregory’s music makes me feel so hopeful and it’s so awesome that someone could be listening to the exact same song as me and feeling this same sense of peace. That someone listening to this music is planning on living by the mountains off the grid and someone else used it as their comfort music in their first semester of college and other people are listening when they feel depressed or just need that familiar sense of pleasure I’m sure we all feel when listening to his songs. These songs bring life to life I believe. I’m so grateful I stumbled on his music when I needed it most
I sleep to Gregory's song, and I live through them. Everytime when the void becomes my home I grab my phone and play anything by him. Because yk my void is my home somehow and no one would know how desperately I want to cease this feeling yet I want it to stay. I'm not making sense but this is what I feel. This is what the melodies do to people.
You can't be more accurate, wow I'm not the only one

Hey, its me.
I just wanna make a little reminder to myself.
When you be back here, and I know you will, because this is your favorite artist, especially when you're feeling depressed, just remember that you're an interesting person, okay?
I believe in you, you'll go through this.
Bruno Branco Of course that you'll be okay ! I bealieve in you too , even if i don't know you . Never give up ! :)
Thanks honey
You're a great person and you can be better, i have faith on you.
And I did come back. Thanks.
it's funny bc i also came back and i read your comment and i was going to clik the like button but i've alredy click it :)
There is only a few times in your life when you know you are listening to an Angel! Gregory Alan Isakov is simply the most incredible human! To sing and produce this you know his soul is good and pure! We say looking in someones eyes is a window into there soul!Well this is the the view to his utter brilliance as a song writer,musican and performer!
This comment section is amazing. Sure, you have a few bad apples here and there, but for the most part, this is the most human thing I've seen in a long time. Everyone is sharing their dreams/hopes/fears to show how they too are just human. So much support is being given to everyone and it gives me so much hope in general. I sincerely thank you, random comment section, for restoring my faith in humanity.
Got news for you, CC: the next raft of TH-cam comments you read will destroy your faith in humanity all over again. Stay here where it's safe and warm :)
Daniel Bradford
Yeah thanks.
Critical Chocolate your remark was beautiful and just shows that we don't all have to be so cynical and cruel to each other. Only we can decide how to be/ react towards one another, why not care and TRY to be positive and loving....what the hell will it hurt?? i loved your comment.
Critical Chocolate i know.. sometimes youtube comments are nothing but goodness and ill be immensely grateful for the people who have made it that way
Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast (it's breast, not beast).
One of my favorite albums
These songs remind me that it's okay to be afraid. It's okay to not want to grow up. It's all okay. No matter what happens, I'll be okay.
This uncertainty certainly is scary, but isn't it beautiful that you get to experience this life as you just once, you never know when again you will get to experience this life, every little pain or bits of pleasure, it all makes us feel alive, the beauty of pain takes us closer to ourselves deep within and the exuberance of pleasure takes us closer to our loved ones. May the love within you find expression in all that you do, may you live life to fullest beyond any fears, obligations, and compulsions.
The Stable Song is so great and peaceful. I can listen to it whether I'm crying or laughing and having a great time.
It really sits well with me.
:)
00:00 *ALL THERE IS*
How the lights will change
Coming back into the city
Driving homeward slow
Shimmer like you do to me
We laugh at all those changing trees
Autumn is falling down again
Out of this blue Sunday dream
Come to me with your smoky mouth
Raindrops fall on this old town
It's been me and you've been falling round
Well I lied to you when I knocked upon your door
See I was nowhere near your neighborhood
But if this all in our mind
If this is all just in our minds
Honey would you mind
Getting out of mine
This is all just in our head
And now it's screaming red
Watching the leaves fall down and laugh at us instead
2:22 *THE STABLE SONG*
Remember when our songs were just like prayers
Like gospel hymns that you caught in the air?
Come down, come down sweet reverence
Unto my simple house and ring
And ring
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio
Ring like clear day wedding bells
Were we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell?
We'll never tell
Come to me clear and cold
On some sea
Watch the world spinning waves, mad machine
Now I've been crazy couldn't you tell?
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table
Well, I sang and drank, and passed in the stable, hmm, hmm
That tall grass grows high and brown
Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground
And you sent me back to where I roam
Well, I cursed and I cried, but now I know
Oh, now I know
And I ran back to that hollow again
The moon was just a sliver back then
And I ached for my heart like some tin man
When it came, oh it beat and it boiled and it rang
Oh, it's ringing
Ring like crazy, ring like hell
Turn me back into that wild-haired gale
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
8:21 *BLACK AND BLUE*
I see boxes
Fills up a room,
All the things I never told you still glooming
And I try though, I try though
Talking never seems to do it
I miss the taste of you, red hearts and the dust of June
Oh I miss the taste of you
The night now, its as dark as the crows,
That call me in the discernment above
Still they won't let me be
Two hearts gone black and blue
Oh they wont let me be closer to you
I miss the taste of you
Red hearts and the dust of June
Oh, I miss the taste of you
Red hearts gone black & blue
Everything you ever do
Is a sigh and a cry
A cry
Cry
this was too much work so i decided to end it here anyways if someones reading this have a good day and i wish you the very best for everything you do
Aurora thank u so much!!!
Thanks 🙏🏽
Thank you!
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much. I really loved slowly reading all this.
This makes me feel the need to escape far from the world, from its speed, its time and its noise. And just be me.
Thank you Universe
I wonder what you're doing...hope that you're happy wherever you are, and whomever you're with. I hope you all the best, and you'll know that you were once the lullaby to all my sleepless nights.
Beautiful
The world loves you! :)
You should be writing your own album. And if you do, I will sing with you on it.
CheerUp World That is so beautiful! You must be a poet.
Thank you for the peaceful words.
The world definitely need more people like you!
This album is pure genius from beginning to end. Thank you Gregory Alan Isakov.
somedays you wander youtube aimlessly, kinda like you're meandering through a forest. this feels like the calming campfire on the way.
Very well put!!
That's the best way to wander TH-cam. You end up finding some wonderful music that otherwise would not cross your path. Keep wandering
I would like to thank you for this. This is a beautiful statement and the testament to the idea that art inspires art because the world is so truly beautiful and deserves to be shared.
Awe I love that 🔥
Ever since I can remember I wished I could just stop existing. I've been wandering aimlessly in life, basically all my life, but especially these last four years, I just sank. I felt like a failure, a disappointment, and a burden. like I was throwing away all my "potential" by not going to college. But I also didn't want to study something I was not passionate about, and I had nothing I was passionate about. Nothing I was good at, was good enough to make a career out of. and my social anxiety stopped me from getting a job. I thought I was a lost cause. I literally felt hopeless ever since I finished high school, and even before that, I felt the doom looming over me.
By the end of last year, starting 2020, I accidentally discovered something I might be good at, might want to do for a living. Then the pandemic happened, and it's hard feeling like I will ever be able to break free from this despair. I might get covid at any time, and I kind of screwed my hands over. So I don't know if the path I glimpsed for myself will still be there by the end of all this. I deep down know that it's unlikely for myself to be able to walk this path, chronic pain and all, but I'm forcefully ignoring all that, because if I acknowledge it, I might just break. This music gives me release, coming here and reading all the comments gives me hope. There is no point in me writing all this, after all, I really don't know if I'll get my happy ending. I just never told this to anyone and I needed to get this out, share with whoever may care, that I'm struggling. Maybe someone is going through something similar and it will make you feel less alone...
Thank you for reading, if you got this far.
May life see us happy, eventually
I also didn't went to college. At first, I think it could be the benefits, you know, to achieve my dreams more easier. But things didn't come like what I expected. Until I realized something important. I'm accepting the fact that I'm nobody in this world. And there's nothing wrong with that. I'm tired of disappointing myself with big expectation. I thought I would be someone that makes difference in this world (not really "world"), I want my life has meaning. So some people will have the benefit from my actions. I wish I could give my life to someone more worthy. But here I am. Fighting with depression and suicidal thought. I'm glad my life still has meaning. But I will not leave any expectation.
I know yours too. Your life is so meaningful. Now and in the future. I'm sure you can be anyone you want. And you'll come to Gregory's concert in the future.
thank you for letting me know I am not the only lonely soul in this planet. Hope things get better for you.
Hi Flower city, I hope you are doing a little better than before or much better. I feel like writing to you, just to tell you that you are not alone. And you know just the fact that you were able to express in words this much that you did is something great, it takes courage to look at ourselves and admit what we are feeling. I believe admitting to ourselves without judging is probably the best thing one can do, the most loving one, and we need love.
I’ve felt hopeless, I felt like a burden to my family, I didn’t see any way I could be happy in life, no good perspective for me. I was incredible disappointed at myself. It was horrible. I feel like crying just to remember. And I want to tell you again, you are not alone, and it is okay…
Flower, I know we are different, have different stories, but we are human and just by that we have huge similarities, the ability to feel pain… other things to, many. I’m telling you about pain because at my worst moments I thought about why I would deserve love and happiness, at the end I thought of it as a living thing, if it’s able to feel pain, then it deserves love, all the living things, and I know we could go on and on about examples of horrible people, get into religion and philosophies, but that was my conclusion and it came from pain and it came from my heart. Can you say to yourself you deserve love? I couldn’t. It was even weirder to say it out loud. After some time I could say that to myself, in a light peaceful way… Seeing myself as a simple living thing and I believe we are, we have so much to learn, right?
I wish you only the best. Be kind to your heart, you may find me a super weirdo to say that but I even talked to my heart sometimes, like placing my hand on my chest between tears and telling my heart it would be okay… Though I didn’t know how things would be okay. But, by that time I knew I needed to be there for my heart, for myself. So, that’s another thing I would like to say to you, never ignore the pain, would you watch a friend in pain and completely ignore it, be harsh to your friend, judge it, kick it to do things? Well, maybe this friend should have done some things differently, but I bet it didn’t mean bad. Many times, this friend will feel a lot better just by having your presence there without the judgement, just by you being there, so be there for your heart when it’s hurt… Never deny your pain and your feelings. And flower, you will discover little things and possible things that make your heart happy, like a song… and little by little things will get better. Take care of your heart.
Much love.
@@Caroline-de3dh This is beautiful and just what was needed. You’re really wise, you know that? Hope your own journey is a good one. Thank you
@@isabellemelies9777 I'm glad it was helpful. :)
Whenever I feel overwhelmed and uninspired, I go back to this album. It reminds me that everything is painfully beautiful and what a privilege it is to be alive.
what a perfect description
Thank you.
Wow, feel the same
its a lifesaver or heartbreaker depending on where you are right now
some songs are incredibly sad some times, maybe they remind you of something or someone or maybe they just hit the "sad" nerve that day. Nontheless, it can be beautiful to let yourself feel the sadness and just feel how it changes, if it does. Sometimes you even feel happy after a little while because you dont resist the sadness and let it pass :) have a good one!
That's nice, like allowing the sadness and the joy, fill the cracks and make you whole.
oh my God you put Gregory as an artist into words. this blows my mind your absolutely right!
Or both.
as I sit with my face in the morning Oaxaca sun The desert highlands surrounding me, looking across the mexican landscape in my senior yrs....life is good, and is even better when youtube meanders into beauty and music reminding me again today that today is a gift, maybe why we call it the "present". May all you special souls posting here have a good day, and I have an E-hug for everyone of you.
I wanna go on a hill where i can sit under a tree while the air hits me and the sun is shining while listening to this song. ❤️

I'm a recovering heroin addict living at a rehab as I type this. I found this in the recommended section while listening to Damien rice and love it. maybe this is what life is about, finding something that touches on expressing how you feel inside coupled with providing the flat courage to try and find a way to express the rest. Regardless I enjoy it and maybe I have that courage. thanks for the comment section I really enjoyed browsing it
I hope all is still well with you
Hope you recover soon......
I hope youre out and good now!
Thomas Hubbard Brother!!! I know that you don't know me and the words I say may hold no weight about them. But I'm soooooo proud of you!! I was an iv heroin addict for almost 10 yrs. I've been clean for 2yrs 1mnth 9 days. Best decision ive ever made. Things are going to get shitty from time to time... REMEMBER that...
U r loved... U r unique... U r beautiful.... and U r cared for!! Even if it's from someone who you will never meet. Regardless... I love you. You've got this. Much love. One love.
Beautifully said. Wishing you luck in your recovery and in life in general!
Isakov style: not just music, but a beautiful nebulous poetry. That somehow means something and everything.

I'm just curious, I'm not trying to imply some political stuff, but as time has gone on do you guys still believe it was just that and that alone? She was a normal, healthy 58 year old? I am curious because you posted this comment right around the time that they were attributing that as a CoD excessively, and have since revised those numbers significantly
How is it after these two years! I hope well!
So sorry Kathryn. I have six sisters and can’t imagine losing one of them! I hope that as time has passed you have healed a bit.
sleepless night. scared of my demons. calmed with marvelous songs
Amelie morin
Nice name :: Amelie Morin :: Very French... Anyway, don't forget the function of our demons: while they seem to show in our lives to destroy us, most dont, then they must show up to show our weaknesses and once we become fully aware of them they no longer bug us.
As they said in the movie Dr Strange: WE DONT DESTROY DEMONS, WE RISE ABOVE THEM.
Well spoken.
Currently living and working in Zion National Park. I've worked and lived in Yellowstone National Park 5 years ago, and after went back to civilization, where I fell into a deep depression. I felt separated from nature, the only thing that keeps me sane. Living in a city is the worst thing and I'm so glad I've made the decision to come back to the lifestyle that I know I'm meant to live. I have decided that I am going to spend my life in nature. I will work in National Parks until I have enough money saved to buy property in the mountains, and build myself a cabin to live fully off grid in. For the first time in 5 years, I feel I have a reason to live. Listening to Gregory Alan Isakov brings out all of those emotions and drive to reach the goal I have set for myself. His music really touches my soul, and makes me feel like I am making the right decision for myself. It's a sense of reassurance that I am not different, but that I just need to do something different to make myself a better person and be happy and content with life. Since I've come back to this lifestyle, I realized how sad and depressed I was before getting back to what makes me, me. I am happy and feel as if a weight has been lifted off of me. I love my life, and I love that I have the opportunity to go on an amazing journey and be in what makes me happy, and enjoy every bit of nature that I have around me. Much love yall!! Do what makes you happy, even if its not the societal norm. Peace!
thank you
Godspeed to you my friend
Hi Walton, I just happened to read your comment. I love nature and want to also become someone like you, who lives in nature and work in a national park. If you'd like, please tell me more about your job and your dreams! I'm currently doing my Bachelor in Environment Science. I'd love to hear you share about the life in the National Park! Kind Regards, David.
Wow ! well said ! beautiful
Far as I'm concerned you're living the dream - hope you're getting closer to it!
Extremely underrated album. 'The Stable Song' is probably a Top 25 for best songs I've ever heard. The whole album has a great feel and aura about it. Go buy it, or buy some songs and support this guy!
I love his music and I believe The Stable Song is the first song I heard by him.
Came for the art/thumbnail.... stayed for the music.

Same
there are few things alive on this Earth, this music is one.
One day, I will travel far where the sun will gaze in my eyes and light my soul. Within this chaotic mind, I will set my mind free with beautiful reality. Day dreams will form with the past, and my still life will feel ethereal for my mind and life will finally tie a knot. It may not occur immediately, but as long as I can see the destination, I can mold the journey.
Setareh Mariposa
GO ON!!! and a lot of bless
He is Jesus. He loves you and wants to know you, to be known. Seek after Him. Open yourself to Him.
He is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, He is the King of kings and Lord of lords.
He is the Father of Lights. Every good and perfect thing (gift) comes from Him. He is Savior, author and finisher of faith.
Poetic and beautiful. Stay this way, please.
Very good music.
Gregory Alan Isakov is the GOAT
My best friend gave up on me because she thought that i am a " toxic " person just because i was and i actually am depressed sometimes. This wonderful songs remind me that it s not my fault because she leaved me after seven years of friendship.if i am suffering,it means that at least i do care. if she is not suffering at all, it means that she never truly cared . So...i hope that someone understands me and prays for me, cuz i am going to pray for others who are suffering. Peace and love! And never give up!Heal yourself first!
Wow. Life is truly incredible. We almost all have friends and family that care about us. We're over here tucked away in our own little corner of the universe with each other. We're all we got, but honestly we're all we need.

So glad I stumbled across this album. Isakov has just gained a new fan.
Someday I'll travel the world to see all of the amazing things this world has to offer: art, nature, people, music, I want to witness so much. To me, this album vocalizes the longing in my heart to see the unknown.
A wonderful 48-minute trip around the earth!
playing that song 3 a.m. is some kind of music the guitarist must have a thousand fingers because that's sounds real good if I can only play that. thanks Alan!
the whole album hits my heart very deep, but especially "that sea, the gambler" sweeps me off my feet - it's hauntingly beautiful and he sings it like he doesn't want the song come to an end.
I accidentally come to this and I can't stop listening to it, I feel like these songs are drew me in the deep water. But i love it!
(Sorry for my English, hope you all know what I'm trying to say.)
Read 'Into The Wild' while listening to this and it was perfect :)
oh, i need that
Great movie "Into The Wild" after i saw that movie i was thinking to do the same, like that guy from movie. because this society is broken
I wanted the same
I'm doing this right now, just started reading it too! hahah what are the odds
you have great taste hah :)
Writing a book missing whilst my dad. He read the first but sadly never the second. Deeply touched by the comments on here- there is love and it is the heartstrings of the earth.
This album. This poem, more accurately, is the perfect soundtrack for whenever you are feeling something that forces you to think. It is so painstakingly beautiful, magical and nostalgic. It's an album you ever tire off. It's one of those things you want everyone to know about and yet it feels so gruesomely personal that it can't really be shared. Honestly, a masterpiece.
You are so correct. It's a shame that this kind of music isn't more popular. The masses would rather eat garbage than a healthy meal.
love falling asleep to this
it's the best thing ever
✋✊👆
We play this every night when we give our baby girl a bath and put her to sleep, since she was about 2 weeks old. She smiles as soon as I put it on. So special ❣
i haven't felt like myself in two years now. i'm trying to gain the love for life i had, the passionate willpower to do the things i love, and it's so hard most days i want to give up and just sink under, but i keep on pushing through. i read all the books i can to make me feel there is love in the world and that i haven't lost this most base aspect of myself. don't ever become what the world would want you to be, the only way is up. as robert frost said, to take the road less travelled by makes for all the difference in the world.
One of the greatest albums of the century.
Salt and The Sea is my favorite. It reminds me so much of Animal Crossing in a weird way. It encapsulates everything so well. It's so calming, gentle and vivid. His storytelling is pure and it takes you into another world. When the rain kicks in it just makes me think of traveling on a train or by sea. His music truly evokes something so beautiful to me.
Literally listening to this album rn as I play Animal Crossing, what are the odds haha
From the first instant, you know you just found some kind of precious gem that's gonna speak to your soul!
Such serene vibrations
Every once in a while a piece comes that resonates with our hearts and suddenly we become less lonely, more forgiving and full of appreciation. Just appreciation.
This is so beautiful, the art, the sound, the gentle softness it brings to life. Everything is perfect here.
I've just got out of psych ward after my failed suicide attempt. I'm laying in bed and crying while listening to this... beautiful
Susanne Holmes listen to famous blue raincoat by Leonard Cohen. It helped me. (there's another called Susanne by him also if you're interested)
edmund tella and travelling lady. shit why not just add every song from Leonards first 3 albums. brilliant man
nakedanonymousspy Agreed. The man was a true genius.
Susanne Holmes i am so sorry you felt so bad that you saw no other alternative but death. Life is just so damn hard sometimes. i wish you love, hope and understanding.
Susanne Holmes I've been there before. You're a strong person and I wish you peace in your life.❤
Very good musicians amaze me....so good!!! :) ....all I can play is the radio. Thank you for being alive.
Each song evokes such different emotions, memories, and imagery, yet they flow from one into the next with such ease. It's rare to find an album so completely "listenable."
I just stumbled on this a few minutes ago, and like others have pointed out, the comment section is quite impressive. So, in honor of this phenomenon, I will add my own piece.
I grew up with a great family who loved me, but bad things still happen in life. I was first suicidal at 9 years old, and I've had depression in varying degrees since (I'm 20 years old now) but now it leans more to seasonal depression. Life hasn't been easy. It's been a struggle physically, emotionally, and spiritually. At some point I made the decision to keep on walking forward, and thanks to friends, family, and faith, I have never attempted suicide, even though I got close a few times. I live with chronic pain and have worked through the pain of past abuse. Right now, I'm trying to figure out what I want out of life, and what I can do in the world to make it better. I've written poetry lately, but I feel it's just me saying what I need to for now, and not a career choice, but it's been a great time, and I've met wonderful people in the process. Soon, I'll nail down what I want. Music helps me connect and think in the meantime. It reminds me of my main goal of wanting to be able to love a lot of people, and show them that they can be happy, that they can experience joy, and know that they are invaluable and beautiful beyond description. And that should be everyone's goal in a way. No matter what you do with your life, no matter if you feel lonely or afraid or useless, just love people. Hold them close and give them the pieces of yourself you never thought you had to give, and do so without expecting anything in return. Love people. And one day you'll wake up excited again, and ready to hop up and start again.

SmoshOfy Your words touched my soul. I hope you are doing well!
Hey man, i would like to talk to you. i don't know why i am doing this. so, message me if you want to chat and talk about music or anything else.
I'm happy I got lost in the comments section of this album. Reading those words right now is really good to me. It makes me think that maybe the reason why I've been super sad during those past months is because I feel like I've lost the strength to love myself and the people around me. By putting words on why I feel bad is certainly the first step to get better.
Thanks for that :)
Such soothing music. I can put this on, close my eyes, take a deep breath, and it's like my worries are washed away completely, if only for a little while. And sometimes, in this in this wild life we live, that can make all the difference.
soft music like this will forever hold a place in my heart. Sure, New Politics is great, and sure, there will always be room for Funeral Suits, but _this_. This is the soundtrack to a life well lived, not just a fun night or a dark movie. This album is the music of fulfillment, the music of comfort. I cannot pour into words the feeling that this gives me. It's like my chest opened up and my heart grew wings and I have learned how to fly among the stars.
i simply don't get it, how can one song capture all thoughts, happy moments, concerns, make you feel a bit sad, move you and then immediately lift you up and fullfil your heart and mind with inner power AT ONCE?...
Love it, thank you Gregory for sharing piece of your work with us
I love finding new music. I really do. I dont know how but I discovered this today as well as Noah Clouds - Love is not enough. It's been a great day.
Lenny Hamster thanks
Lenny Hamster thank you
Lenny Hamster thank youuuuuuu
Lenny Hamster amazing
Lenny Hamster made my day as well
It's so nice to listen to this in the morning. Makes one feel that life isn't so bad after all and that there are beautiful things in this world that await our presence! That one can genuinely smile amidst the storm and dance in the rain! That there are good people in this world that are worth meeting.
Such wonderful music.
In this world only good music motivates me to stay alive..
I love travel, I've been all over the u.s.a via car. Road trips are amazing. adventures are in my blood. This music, is perfect. Good driving music. and also, my best friend was going through stuff so I picked her up and just drove. I took her phone said lay back, listen to the music and watch the shapes outside the window. And everything was good :) Safe.
You're an awesome friend!! Sounds like you both had a blast during your road trip 👍
omygod finally another beautiful artist. Beautiful voice and lyrics!! Reminds me so much of sleeping at last
makes me feel at ease. these last few months have been so tough but im so glad that things are loooking up.
Look at the window, look at the birds, trees, flowers and just get surprised by the beautiful scene of life.
I feel that this album, That Sea, The Gambler, has a more solemn feel that his other albums. It's sheer perfection put to music.
Was having a frustrating afternoon... It's my day off, but the day flew by with me not getting enough done. Randomly threw this on and wow, I feel so much more relaxed. This is an incredible album.
I hope that everyone out there has this album make them feel the same way. Have a great week, everybody.
I could just sit back and listen to Isakov for the entire day.
I am being suffocated with physical pain. Three doctors, three different dx. This came to me I wasn't looking for it but, it helped the long over due tears flow. Beautiful.
This guy's music is the best. I have already said it on the other youTube posts of his really great music. This is definitely the best music for a new age in America.
I just finished listening closely to all of the tracks on this album and I couldn't believe my ears how good all of the tracks were.
Great music. Thanks GAI.
I still wished peoples still listen this kinda song instead of twerking songs these days...
Just bought the album. Thanks for posting!
I got 'Time Will Tell' stuck in my head from a tv commercial. I am now blessed to have found this beautiful music. Thank You God.
sad days can't exist with music like this.
+Bryan Williams yes, you're right; sadness and happyness co-exist.... a beautiful mix.
Soothing, uplifting, deep ... just what I need right now. This...Image fits the sound to perfection. I’m going to get in that boat and sail in the stars and the moon in my dreams.
The song 3 A.M: @26:52 , is my absolute favorite.
"The night, I think, is darker than we can really say
And god's been living in that ocean, sending us all the big waves
And I wish I was a sailor so I could know just how to trust,
Maybe I could bring some grace back home to the dryland for all of us."
The words to his songs are very rich. Very rich lyrics. Same thing. Good to listen to really all around great music by this Isakov guy. Kudos.
Cudowne dźwięki unoszą w górę i nie pozwalają spadać w dół. Subtelnie, pięknie.
Everyone is sharing their stories out here, might as well give mine a go; I was at a really dark place in my life about 2/3 of a year ago. Nothing had meaning, and everything was boring and kind of a painful-for-not-really-a-reason haze. Then, I started a new school and things were a little better, new best friend, and a guy who I’d reached out to. Didn’t expect him to reach back, but he did and he’s a beautiful, funny, screwed-up but awesome human who I really fell for, gradually but strongly. He liked me too, but I confessed exactly at the wrong time and it ruined what could have been a beautiful thing, love even. He’s amazing and we’re (hopefully) closer again, but strictly as friends. I doubt that he’ll ever think of me that way again and i feel like I really fucked up because he’s so calm and happy and bright and interesting, but also just a fundamentally good person and guy. I’d give him the world if i could, and still love him as a friend because he was there when nobody else was and gave something that’s really hard to forget. The first love is definitely the best. Now, the problem is trusting and moving on, finding love again. And hopefully building up our bond, if it’s still there and I deserve it. I could just walk away, but with him I could never. Can’t imagine a world without. I haven’t felt a single thing in the months since then, it’s back to the haze. But now the fog is lifting and I’m scared that i have to face my mistakes head on, and it’s going to hurt a lot. I’m so sorry and if i could change the past, i would; but the future awaits and i don’t want to live with one foot in each world. Now, though, I view myself like a stranger, because i don’t want to associate all the bad mistakes with me. I just want to get through the wake-up, the trial by fire, and create and see and share beautiful things again, to love people, to cry, to laugh, and to live with a vengeance. For real this time, not in some fantasy world, or one where things get put off. I want it all, now, before life just passes with me pretending all along. I don’t want to be fake, and i don’t want to be alone. Caring for other people and about other things is what i need to really be home. I just want to be alive again.
All the best of luck to you, dear!
Never apologize or feel bad for being loving and expressing it. Be you, the world needs u
And I ached for my heart like some tin man.....
Absolutely beautiful music. I put this on while my 14 year old dog was first bathed, brushed and snuggled, and then euthanised in home. It'll forever remind me of Sativa, and I am listening to it today again in her memory
I love listening to this album while I drive in my old antique 1990s Chevrolet Silverado Truck. Down a Countryside Road
The dark that's no shadow, keeping the night shallow. Light's came up from the stars, heads up and embrace it. The cold breeze keeps touching the skin. Tears fall when the heart is reminiscing.
beautiful
Beautifully said, friend. ❤
I love this. I'm going to buy everything he ever recorded. It's just so awesome.
Inexplicable feelings: I've no words to explain how wonderful is it.
This music breaks down barriers, reminding us all that life can be beautiful if we choose to see the beauty in it.
