Listen again, my fellow traveler.

do it now, let's share it!
One of my best friends just shared this album to me. She said that this is what she listens to through dark times for the past years. Tomorrow, me and my family will go to the hospital to finally remove my Mom's life support. The doctors said she had little chance of surviving even with the brain surgery. She might still in coma even if she survives. She fought so hard and we fought so hard beside her too but we no longer want her to suffer. We love you Mama. Thank you for everything. I miss you and will think of you everyday.
😘
You're not alone, friend. I know I'm four months late, but on a big rock floating through a vacuum in the middle of nowhere, showing kindness to someone else is the best we can do to show the dark that we're not one and the same. That we keep going on through what's hard to find the beauty far beneath the surface. I lost my dad three years ago and, as someone who has also lost a parent, I can promise you that life might not feel any easier years later, but the experience influences the company you keep. Choose to keep positive people and you'll be proud of the person you are
I may not be proud of who I am now, but I can sense that the feeling is just over the horizon. That feeling can be yours, too. We'll never meet, but I'll be there in spirit, smiling at the progress you've made and celebrating the small things you do to create your own peace of mind
Stay strong, friend
i am sorry June
My feelings
sending so much love to you!!!
It’s so rare, to scroll to the comments on a video and find nothing but comments of love, peace and friendship. I don’t know any of you, but thank you. I hope you are safe, warm and well.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍
even better to have someone randomly drop a name on you. This is beautiful
Wishing you all the best as well 💖 😊
Same to you
I'm playing this album, and my little boy (3 years old) has pulled his blanket around himself and crawled into his little teepee in the corner of our living room. Totally Chill. After each song, I can see a little pair of hands emerging to give a little round of applause :)
i hope you and your little one are doing well :D
What a sweet little angel
that's adorable ❤
that is so cute 🥹😭
He is so sweet🥰🥺
Hi beautiful stranger,
You don't know me and I don't know you, but we are both listening to this wonderful album and that connects us.
Hope you're doing great and if not, I'm sending you lots and lots of love.
That made my day thanks
you are so cute thank you :)
From other side of the world ..blessings 🙏🏼
@@ash8371 what would you know? Maybe we're on the same hemisphere....
I love you and everyone else listening to this album:)
Its a special kind of loneliness, when you stumble across music this good, and all the comments are mostly 2-4 years old...
The same feeling mate!!
True.
Omg same.
I feel you. Same with me. I accidentally ended up here only tonight
We are still here, this is an album you come back no matter how old
I saw him play a very small venue in Ventura, Ca. A very small crowd. I went to smoke a cigarette out on the front porch before he came out to play, supposedly was suppose to go on in minutes and everyone made sure to be seated in order to not miss the opening. I was alone out front, smoking my cigarette and out from the side alley of the building a guy walks out and asks to use my lighter. It was Gregory Alan Isakov. he sat down right next to me, and we talked for 15 minutes about something we had in common, a break-up. We walked back in diffferent entrances and the show started. My friend's couldnt believe me and i dont blame them, but he was the nicest and most down to earth, genuine person I have ever met. He took the time for one person over a crowd.
Maybe he felt the same way about you Zachariah....i once had a similar conversation with one Jack Savoretti who i'd asked to possibly have a look at some lyrics i'd penned. He spent half an hour with me and had actually read them. He inspired me to carry on even though i had no clue if anybody would even consider rating my lyrics/songs. Five years later, he signed my daughter's guitar at another of his gigs and amazingly, this amazing human remembered our first conversation...
Then he congratulated me on NEVER giving up. I now put every lyric i have in front of co-writers and thanks to Jack's inspirational chats...SONIC FOXX MUSIC is growing in popularity and co-writers are now calling me to co-write with them...THANK YOU JACK...there is plenty more room in the world for Gregory's and Jack's.
They all started somewhere, i guess and they have good memories. Betting Gregory will remember that conversation with you forever and a day...he may even have been inspired by you to pick up his pen and write about your conversations...trust me, writers do that kind of thing because people's life stories are one thing...RELATIONAL.
you also have the prospect of lung cancer in common. When you're coughing bits of lung up, you can recount this magical moment.
@@terrytibbs5678 That's nice Terry. Did you ever consider that tobbaco consumption is part of the mindset that allows him to right nice songs. He's paying for your enjoyment with those lungs. :)
@@terrytibbs5678 I agree with you Terry because I'm against smoking also but that was a rather harsh way to express your feelings. I hope that Gregory & Zachariah will both try to kick the habit someday because is it a killer.
Dude......
This is hilarious ....
I just finished a twelve hour shift. The sun's coming up in a few minutes and this album randomly started playing as my playlist ended. I feel like I'm listening to the final moments of my faltering dreams. That once insatiable thirst for glory and ambition within my soul has dwindled into scarce embers. Snuffed out as the reality of the world brought itself to bear upon them. When the sun comes up, and those first fingers of light spear across the sky, those dreams of mine will finally die and myself along with them. And this album will keep playing.
At least in the very end, it was a beautiful death. One I could listen to for hours on end.
Tears are running down my face as I write this. Not only was this one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever read, but I broke down again in the past couple of days and your words tugged at my wounds. And I don’t think I’ll get up again. Not this time. It’s not your fault. It’s just “the reality of the world.”
@blackstag9366 ...you still here?
Nobody with a soul that poetic was meant to leave that way...
@@WSUGLUE you still breathing this collective oxygen?
I pray you are...both of you. God bless you.
Don't let your dreams die brother, that's all we have when we are by ourselves.
It's the only offering a man can make to the gods once he's finished his business on this earth. I know how you feel,you gotta keep fighting.
I discovered this music while I was living in Pune, India. My flatmates and I would play this album and gaze at the misty hills outside. I guess it transported us all to a place where all roads meet, and where, for a while we could forget our troubles. Soon this album became one with that languid charm that was characteristic of that place. I no longer stay there, but every time I play this, I can see those lush green hills and that uphill road leading to nowhere. We thought we would live forever, breathing in that mist and just being our usual selves, without a care in the world. But soon we realized it was not right to hang on to that place for too long. So now, scattered across the world, we still play this album to remember the ghosts that haunted us.
Mainak Basak that's really beautiful :’)
That is a beautiful story, one that I think in all of our own unique ways we can relate to. Especially so, when we have such a wonderful soundtrack to take us back to it.
Cheers! To you, wherever it is in this small world your journey has taken you to.
deym i like the story
Which part of Pune are you from bro? I wish I had discovered his music while in Pune. I can imagine it would be a lifetime memory ❤️
Beautiful
Listening to his music is like riding a lone bicycle by an old countryside, looking at the sea and the sun and the breeze and going through so many memories and then lying on a meadow watching the moonlight spread through the sky.
ikr :)
Couldn’t have described it better!
Your words reminds of scenes from studio Ghilbi japanese movies
You should be writing songs, if you're not already.
@Iohan Gueorguiev
I don't know if someone is listening to this during the Covid-19 lockdown, but if you are, cheers to you brother/sister! This album is one of a few that is keeping me sane in these most trying of times. So hang in there, fellow warrior, and we shall see this through and meet when the earth is clean and nice and pure and light again!
Amen. Listening to this gorgeous album in northeastern Washington State, in our second week of the lockdown. But, we have good food, good wine, and great music. We shall overcome.
We will only return to fuck the earth once again. Humans are doomed and I wish some virus comes and blows the shit of us. We don't deserve this place.
Thank you for the greeting. I also just found this album. May your wish come true.
🖤✨
Unsurprising to see it is a fellow speaker whose ear has been piqued.
I recently went to Isakov's show in Lawrence, Kansas. It was pretty cold that night and, after the show, he stood outside his bus talking to fans (I said hello, complimented his performance and that of his band. got his autograph, and moved on). He was so personable. I looked back and he was shivering from the cold, but still chatting with people who love the man and his music. He is a treasure in a world of meanness and cynicism.
As a person from Topeka, Kansas and a music lover of GAI i am saddened by missing a performance so close. Take youself back to that night if you could, tell me about the performance or dont so i can live it out for myself in the next opportunity.
@@camerashyguy6184 Wow! I'm from India and in 2016 when I visited the US, I travelled by Greyhound from Huntsville, Alabama to Wichita, Kansas, and drove through Lawrence and Topeka too if I'm not mistaken.... Isakov's music and this conversation brought back memories.... Cheers to you and Dan Murtaugh....
This album literally saved my life. I know it may sound cheesy and corny, but I found it just when I needed something so badly. I was in a bleak darkness with no way out. For the words and music and the man who performed them I am forever grateful
i am so glad to hear that you are doing better
Hey, hope you're doing great! How have you been since?
@@blind999 thank you for asking. I am doing very well actually. Moved to a new state, new job, new life at 40. Never too old to start over I guess. Hope you are well and continue to be.
Man, I'm very happy to hear that! That put a smile on my face :) keep going!!
So happy you’re still with us! Hope things are good and you can enjoy Gregory’s music during the good and bad stuff! Cheers
Listenin to this at 3am ...i feel like nobody else exists
me too
+Mossab Lahmaza same,
beautifulchaos151.wordpress.com/
true!
I'm listening to this at 1am and feel like I'm nobody
"Words mean more at night." Lyrics that are just haunting with truth. Lovely.
My Granny is turning 95 in a couple of days, and she LOVES his songs. So, thank you very much, Gregory!
If you're reading this, we are the same. This music brings me comfort when it seems like the world is collapsed around me. I find peace in this music. I also want you to know that I love you.
Nothing says 'im begging for internet likes' like telling random people online you are the same as them and love them
We are the same. I love you, too 😘
I could probbably fall in love with anyone in this world if this would play in the background while we would just lay together
lifeislikeabicycle / i’ve just felt this
lifeislikeabicycle 🙂
Even better when you meet someone who makes you feel like this album makes you feel :3
BEEN 2 Y BRO
🙃🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🙃
This album belongs to the quiet hours of the night. Much love!
im listening to it in full for the first time now, 200 am, perfect
music never will belong to the night it belongs to the listeners the ppl that are so down all they do is look at memes and listen to some damn good music like this
"words mean more at night"❤
Full Moon long walks
100%👌
After reading some comments, It's safe to say that we all share the same dream, to live in a countryside, appreciate nature, fill our eyes with all those greens, away from the smokes of the city, all the noise, and spend your retirement in the view of alphs/mountains/trees. With the person you love.
An 18 yr old wrote this and I don't even have a work and a partner but school.
THIS!
This is exactly how I feel.
Yes, we share the same dream.
👍🏻
you should buy some tangos, stats aren't everything yknow!
@@edenhoram9963 oof. Someone knows dota haha !
I play Gregory Alan Isakov all day when I'm working, just repeating all of his full albums over and over. I love Punk, Hardcore and Metal; but I love this music when I need to concentrate. I stop whatever I'm doing when Master & A Hound comes on and just close my eyes and listen. Thank you for sharing.
Same here
It's the kind of music that doesn't sound like noise, just a pure melody of calmness and it's beautiful.
"Remember to be gentle with yourself and others. We are all children of chance and none can say why some fields will blossom while others lay brown beneath the August sun" ~ Kent Nerburn
goose bumps.
love these words
Hermoso!
made my cry... for no matter how hard I try, my fields will not bloom. and now I realize I am also the august sun that beats them down.
beatrijs hubrecht he loves the words not me . if he loved me he wouldn't need utube to sing songs for him.
This man has an old soul. Makes me cry.
It's 4 in the morning with immense sadness, my 3-month-old kitten died 2 days ago, knowing that I will never see him again, besides that my life is a total disaster, listening to this album that somehow I forget everything that happened . .
This man is certainly a poet. His muse definitely whispers close to his ear, making him alone in the crowd. Maybe he was born in the wrong era, but I’m glad that he’s here.
When depression hits and I'm all alone at night, I always come here to listen to this album and realize that there is a cure for life and it's called music.
Feel the same way bro... thank God for Gregory. 😊
I imagine Gods listen to this type of music.
lol
We are all gods and goddesses so yea 😉
American gods
You know music is good, when it touches your soul and you don't even have one.
+Vushker Wellks great comment
+Thisisyourleft (Shhh, is part of my character xDDD) *Eats their souls*
Not if I eat yours first :P
you devil!
i'm more a soulless neutral but.... ill take it as a compliment
I want to drive all around America listening to his albums.
me too.
Please do LOL
ill join you!
"Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life."
Derek Choate no the road is just road ,the battered suitcase is life for me & him not same road as yours.
Just imagine being in a golden field, surrounded by forests and mountains, alone, and listening to his albums
just how perfect that moment would be...
I listened to his music driving and camping through Oklahoma Texas Colorado Wyoming Idaho Utah. It fits the adventure
His music gives me the feeling of my favorite season....FALL....October crisp air, football, dry leaves, rich coffee, and something dried and fruity in the air. Is it Pumpkins?
His songs suits the netflix series "anne with an e" so much, try watching it
And maybe a little toke for a mellow high
LIFEHACK: when you're feeling lower than usual, or can't fall asleep, play this with some nice rain in the background. trust me, it helps if you're restless or feeling like you need to feel like part of something much bigger than you.
Yo! I just put some rain soundtrack on in the background and holy moly! that's awesome!
Want someone to go on a road trip with me and music like this
I heard him say on an interview that when he writes an album he likes to feel it out before releasing it because he likes to create an album that you can listen to from beginning to end. And I honestly respect that. His albums are a work of art when they are released.
Works damn well too. Just came from listening the entirety of The Weatherman.
Definitely agree, just listened to this album in one sitting. Left me feeling dazed and nostalgic
Ha that got you about fivehundred likes 😁
Found him again after 4 years and I don’t think I’ve ever listen to just one song. Everytime, the whole album, or two or three😄 It’s lovely.
Amen to that!
This is the shit that makes me want to continue living and dreaming. It whispers deep into the corners of you and just lets your soul dance to it.
yes.
This is beautiful :)
He was supposed to be at a show 15 minutes from my house. And then covid hit and I am so sad.
@@Lividaudio not at all related to her comment. Stop being creepy
Traveling across this beautiful country, with nothing but my dog and my memories of a simpler time- this is the music of my soul
I feel content yet lonely when I listen to this
this is just an expression im looking for
you're not the only one
me too
For some...a little loneliness every now and again CAN provide contentment.
At times we need the world to stop rotating so we can step off in for about as long as this album takes to play, in order to find ourselves again and realise just how damned beautiful a place this planet can be..THEN STEP BACK ON IT...and help it rotate again.
I think that's how God feels.
We've found a pearl in the occean. This sounds like happiness.
I can hear kindred spirits in these lovely comments. When you are 70, albums like this, artists like this, can charm you...but they cannot go back in time and possess you, give you the company you crave full of mad joy and solace ...
So if any of you are younger and still feel the blood change in your veins when you find that kind of company, consider looking up Fraser & Debolt - the album with All This Paradise and a cover of Dont Bring Me Down ... And - a litmus test of another order entirely - All Good Men by Beaver & Krause - best listened to late at night with someone who loves it and thinks they may love you too - strange and wonderful as a dream that breaks your heart when you wake up.
Genesis 47:9 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.
Night, car, coffee, someone really special next to me. And this album. Oh God, that's all I need right now.
nothing like crying to your all time fav album when life gets too much. I feel stressed, nostalgic, lost and I cant find the words to express why. Time goes on and on and on, I'm scared I'm taking things for granted, I'm scared I'm wasting it, I'm scared I'm not taking the chances i should be taking. Why do we let small things shape so much of our life, why do we let them affect us so much.
It's one of my favourite albums, too. Hope you'll find some peaceful moments, friend. I have faith that things will turn out so well for you in the future. Much love ❤️
@@kellyofearth2092 aah ily thank you sm💓
I completely understand what your feeling. Thanks for sharing that I know I’m not alone. 🖤 and neither are you.
You need to fail more. It's just as important as success. Believe in something. Anything. Finish things you start. Or abandon them completely. And always tell the truth. Even if it makes you look bad.
4 AM rn, hope things work out - I really need a win or at least some semblance of hope.
I hope things did work out and you got that win
You're doing great, Goodluck.
This album got me through 2 months of inpatient eating disorder treatment.
Thank you, beyond measure.
I hope you're doing better. It's gotten me through a lot, too. ❤️
Proud of you! Good music really has more of an effect than science has even begun to realize. :)
Nomnomnom
i swear every song he made is a masterpiece
His music makes me want to cry and smile all at the same time
Christina Spyro that is the most perfect way of describing this artist and his music
I know this sounds really pretentious but I don't mean it to. I just almost can't quite handle the faultless beauty of everything I've heard from this guy. I feel like I don't want to share it with anyone, but at the same time I can't understand why the entire world doesn't know who he is and how talented a writer of all kinds he is. He creates places I haven't been to but I know I've seen. His lyrics are skilled poetry, his music is so emotionally evocative it's as though a neurosurgeon has put electrodes into your brain and is turning your emotions on and off at will. I wish I could find something negative to say if only for reasons of balanced critique but I just can't. Honestly, I think Gregory Alan Isakov is really and truly one of the greatest songwriters I have ever had the pleasure to come across and I know I will be listening to his music for the rest of my life.
I feel the exact same and I discovered him a week ago.
Exactly. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Honest comment
That's how Bon Iver's music makes me feel, and it was a Bon Iver video that led me here. I'm hoping I have the same reaction you did... here we go.
Yup
The moment when you hear first song and you just know you are going to love the rest as well.
A lot of people these days commenting in these kind of music, talking about feeling like embarking themselves in a trip and beyond. I did. And in doing so I discovered that, most of the time, we just want a little alone time more than the trip itself. I really enjoyed the trip and when things get hard, I wish I was there again. Sometimes I think I only know how to live by the pacific time zone. Now I am back where I am from but I know another trip is pending... but first, I gotta fix some major issues. Love y'all.
If there's such a thing as a beautiful sadness this album is it.
Dude has an old classy soul.
What a brilliant songwriter
didn't knew of Gregory's version. This is a great, great song.
Life is hard in itself and going through a break-up during these tough times is just harder. But we will come out stronger from the other side, is what everyone is saying. I am waiting, I am waiting for time to play its part. Heal me, heal the world and let's all meet once again and let the magic spark again. Love to anybody who needs it the most:)
Amen ❤️
i was running circling my house this evening while listening to this album, and i was just absolutely romanticizing the feeling of absolute freedom in my own world.
Shut up
Never have I loved an album, an artist or music in General this much.
I want this played at my funeral, my wedding, each and every birthday party. Just like a constant white noise in the background, my theme song.
good idea. I AM constantly looking for music I want playing @ my (funeral) or H's reception. hard to find beautiful, chill, but not happy! music ~
i love your comment
How profoundly heartbreaking is it to even imagine making music this hauntingly beautiful with no one to share it with, never to see the light of day.
the world needs to pay more attention to Gregory Alan Isakov. This album is simply genial!
Indeed is simply genial! Genial: friendly and cheerful in disposition.
Whenever I listen to this album there's always vivid images, of places I've never been, floating around my mind. A haunting melody and lyricism that makes me feel like I'm re-living someone's life. A song that always reminds me that all of these is just a ride.
The Fourth... I can't like your comment more than once, otherwise I would. I feel the same
I'm crying over this album, for different reason.
The first one is that I had a very long day and that the musics here is so calm and well written, it's so good.
The second one is that this album make me think of a person that don't exist at all. And When I say " at all " I mean it, he's in head and I never told Anyone about him. He is not my lover, just my bestfriend. And the voice of Gregory is the same as my " friend ". It made me cry because all I can do is imagine us travellings the world around that playlist.
Thank you for make me feeling that
I will😊
When I listen to songs like this... I think that there are so many emotions of so many people linked to this one song. So many emotions lost, so many emotions to come. We, common people are happy in so little. How lucky are we, to become happy, in just a song. Love to all you beautiful people out there
real music really does still exist, just not on the charts.
What's a chart?
squeakeththewheel basically like the charts of the top 100 or whatever songs. basically the mainstream music people usually tune into
Jacob47 - well then "people" are missing the real music. Thank Odin for the real music.
Always has dirtyjew1974.
If the music exists, it is real. Don't confuse subjective preference with objective standard.
One person suggested me to listen to this. She's in no more in my life. If you ever read this I just wanted to say "Thank you for introducing me to good music". :)

@@melissaprice1479 aw thats sweet
and I showed my heart to the doctor
he said, 'you just have to quit'
then he wrote himself a prescription
and your name was mentioned in it
then he locked himself in a library shelf with the details of our honeymoon - and I heard from the nurse that he's gotten much worse and his practice is all in a ruin....I heard of a saint who had loved you - so I studied all night in his school.......
It's a Leonard Cohen song, look it up :)

An Eskimo showed me a movie he's recently taken of you, the poor man could hardly stop shivering his lips and his fingers were blue. I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes and I guess he just never got warm, but you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice oh please let me come into the storm. (Whistling ending)
I have been depressed for a long time, can't even remember since when. It's like l am walking around in a daze oblivious of things around me. People who have been through this knows how it feels . Nothing excites me except stumbling upon a piece of art as sublime as this. You reach out for it. with your hands outstretched, trying to cling to it like it's the only thing in the world. You end up holding on to yourself, a recess in your soul that you didnt know existed until now. And you feel a little less lonely.
🙏🏻♥️
Sometimes, I wish if I could go upto all the messed up people who is making my life so hard every single day, and make them listen to songs like this and talk to them and try to loosen their heart.
I just discoverd this guy. i'm in a different world now
Me too
Glad i did too
Just listened to the entire album in one sitting. Normally, I can never get through a single song without skipping. Best 48 minutes ever spent.
Truth❤
I don't know how I got here. But I am for sure glad that I did. This music is immaculate.
I want to blast this album from my car speakers with the windows down and drive far away from all my problems.
I have never regret meeting you. Your words still heals me, your warmth still haunts me, your smile still completes me. It may be true I might not be the one to grow old with you until the end of my time, but I know up in that November night sky, the brightest star is illuminated by the sparks when our universes collides.

I'm so lonely, despite having a loving family and caring friends. There is something very wrong with me.
no there isn't sweetie. you're gonna be okay. x
Can i add to Jane Willow's comment....you might feel lonely but your not alone.
I stopped after a long walk to talk to a young lady whilst walking past the local sport's centre. As she said "Hello...how are you?..it's a lovely day isn't it?", i happened to notice a very prominent facial tick. I answered back with a "yes it is...i hope you have a wonderful day"...her response made me respond to her in a heartbeat. She said "THANK YOU FOR BEING NICE TO ME...i'm Mary"....wow, i nearly wept on the spot and turned back to her and asked her a question. "...would you like a hug Mary"....."Yes please" she said, smiling....SO I HUGGED HER...she smiled and asked me my name and i told her...and we parted with a smile to each other.
As i walked away i did weep(she was so young and i've raised a daughter with my wife)...thinking about the comment she had made..."THANK YOU FOR BEING NICE TO ME"...it just screamed out that many others HADN'T...DAMMIT....right at that moment she became my daughter, somebody else's daughter.
WAKE UP WORLD...BE NICE...it costs so little.
how are you doing now? i kinda feel the same as you when you writed this post, hope you are feeling better :)
Such caring comments from strangers,heart warming to say the least :)

A golden bear drags his body
Lazily across glittering sand.
Far as th Siberian hunt,
Deep winter and in th slopes,
A smoky blue whale glides
Lazily across shimmering sea.
Far as th eye can see,
Season-less landscapes, warm valleys,
A group of men crawl through jungles,
Th tropical breeze blows lazily.
wrote this little poem while listening to this album.
Welsonn Goh omg I like it
are there bears in the desert?
and how can there be no seasons?
a poem can be beautiful, but it should make sense.
43Aquaman I don't think there's any right way to make any kind of art. A poem can be anything and personally I think "a golden bear dragging it's body lazily across glittering sand" is a cool image and provokes a certain feeling. I'd say the poem could be a bit more focused but it evokes some pretty cool imagery
I dream of finding a girl one day who listens to this kind of music, to take some time and appreciate the simple things and make some peace and fun out of nothing, someone to sit by me as we listen and drive round the beach towns without a care in the world
This Is the only album I’ve ever been able to listen to whilst studying. Literally puts me in the best headspace and I’m able to concentrate.
I cannot adequately express in words how wonderful this album is. Isakov's music tugs at my soul in so many different ways. His voice, lyrics, the tempo of his playing are simply incredible. Please support his art by visiting his website. Peace, Grace, and Blessings to all ... especially during these COVID days.
This album saved my life.
Who else is here during the pandemic apocalypse? Thank God I found this
One step at a time, we'll get there.
Words is one of the best masterpieces I've ever heard
Here, I am writing this...and it seems pretty difficult to move my fingers over keyboard...stoned by the calmness and peace Isakov offers. Long live ♥
the world has become a crazy and a chaotic place. i want you guys to know that we are going to make it. we are all in this together. If you are reading this, BREATHE & SMILE and keep the faith in whatever or whoever you love.
When listening to this album, I always picture myself sitting in a green meadow, at the end of my life, smiling back on everything I’ve lived through and experienced... the good and the bad. Alone, but not lonely. It’s not quite sadness, not quite happiness... but it’s something. Life is so strange and beautiful.
This music makes you feel like the moment when you go outside after a long time of sitting inside and you feel the warmth of the sun on your face. Pleasant feeling for sure...
This collection of beauty is extraordinary. These songs take on a life of their own. They show me sun when I'm low. They lend me darkness when I'm high. Gregory's talent is almost tangible. The reverence I feel for his craft boarders on preposterous. Love you man. Thank you. I've purchased all your music as well.
Hi THis is Gregory. Thanks Man. Fucking Great yeh.
I love that you purchase it too! And I am right here with you. ❤️
Gregory Alan Isakov's best musical quality is the quiet he captures in his music.
I found a new singer to follow in my life... Its an amazing album. evening sunlight is entering my windows.. and these songs are making my day with that sunlight. it changed my mood completely i feel so fresh and i am floating somewhere in the space..... its awesome.
I just discovered this after falling asleep listening to Daughter's Not to Disappear album. I woke up to find that autoplay led me here, so I started it over to listen to the whole thing. Currently fifteen minutes into the album and I'm thankful for autoplay. Wistful and nostalgic, this music.
My very first love, when i was 17 showed this album to me. We spend 2 beautiful years together. Until she died in a car crash. "Big black car" played on her funeral. It´s been 5 years since she no longer is with us but I think of her every single day. She died in the hospital, next to me and her family. I´ve attempted twice, spent 3 years on antidepressants and I´m still struggling to have a social life. This album is my little comfort zone, I put it on and cry in my room when the sadness begins to overflow. I don´t know how to move in from this all, I miss her so much.
Long rain
Lonely feeling
Missin someone badly
Noone to talk with
Worried for yourself
Some beautiful memories in mind and
GREGORY ALAN ISAKOV songs
38:43 tells my life story. Gregory Alan Isakov put together a magical piece of music with this album.
This version of "One of us cannot be wrong" is devastating...especially with all the lovely subdued sweetness that leads up to it. DEVASTATING!
I had Insomia back in the days and I wanted to say this was by far the best company I had through that time ever
Greetings from beautiful Texas. Sending lots of love wherever you are in this world.
Arguably in the top 5 albums this century.
