This is the reason why I spend hours sorting through mediocre music. This song made me stop what I was doing and took me back. Thank you Stephen. Incredible song.
Thankk on you for doing that. Us little guys appreciate it. Check out ” The Stanfields “. “ The Town Heros” “ Matt Andersen” They’re not my band but you might like them.
Well Mr. Johnson, as a kid (I'm 22 in july) I never seen any of the men around me cry. Only the women. And only when an important woman in their life was gone, would I see them cry. I cried... a lot. I'm glad I read this comment from a 64 year old, as a 21 year old listenin to the same damn song. Have a good day sir
Nobody sounds like this guy - no over-produced, autotuned bullshit just a voice, a guitar and a whole lot of hurt. I discovered him from his cover of Stand By Me and then I watched the entire Print Shop set and then couldn't stop searching. His interview on The Print Shop was so wholesome and honest as well, what a beautiful guy. I love it when we find these diamonds.
Yes !!! Exactly. I found him the same way and living in the Los Angeles area and deal with many musicians, I immediately sent these same videos to everyone I knew…. So genuine and amazing ! Love this guy !!!
Yes !!! Exactly. I found him the same way and living in the Los Angeles area and deal with many musicians, I immediately sent these same videos to everyone I knew…. So genuine and amazing ! Love this guy !!!
The amount of grief we experience is equal only to the love we know. The greater the love the greater the grief. What a privilege it is to know grief. Those who've never known grief have never felt love. I love you all.
I lost my wolf hybrid - totally unexpected, she was my best friend; wild bright eyes, giant smile and helicopter tail. Putting her in the ground was one continual eye shower. I miss her to this day.
@@jtrcknoregon1922I lost my 13 week old puppy on Janurary 8th, it stills feels like i just lost him.. Im so sorry for your loss its definely noy easy :(
Same I hope big j didn’t accidentally hurt this guys feelings lol his music is so sincere and j isn’t lol but that’s why I love both of them they are who they are lol
Well, that is one more year down. Last night was a lonely one, as many birthday nights have been these past few years. I miss them all. My twin brother, daughter, family and friends, brothers killed in war....and the list seems to go on... Again there was no cake, no candles, no singing, but my birthday wish was the same, no matter how futile. I hope some day....I find out where all the love goes. I wish you all here in the comments...nothing but...peace and progress.
Happy Birthday to you friend sorry you were alone Noone deserves to be alone on their birthday may God bless you and hopefully your next one will be better for you.
Please remember you have wisdom and heart and kindness within. I hope you continue reaching out to the world. Sometimes it is through the journey that an understanding forms. Best wishes always.
Cried like a baby the first time I heard this song. Lost so many people in my life and I miss them so much. Thank you Stephen for this song. So beautiful. Now I listen to this when I’m missing them. I’m excited to see you perform at country thunder tomorrow
This man is our generation’s Stevie Ray Vaughan. A voice somewhere between George Thorogood and Tom Petty. A sound right in the middle of rock and country with the only other guitar on earth I’ve heard sound as deep as Willie Nelson’s Trigger. This is some otherworldly-soulful music. Wow.
Gobbsmaked. Skull drug. Blasted. I don’t have the vocabulary to express the detonation in my mind that this LEGEND ignited with his art! Fucking fantastic!!!
I have never heard of this artist but i feel like things just come around right when you need them. I lost my dad to cancer 3 weeks ago and this song was just what I needed to hear. Beautiful song man, thank you.
Lost my pops to brain cancer as well, lucky for me i was fairly young so it did not hit me as hard as it would now. Less lucky is my mother had to raise me and my three brothers all by herself. But she did it, and we made it. It all ends up good for good peope, and whatever you're going trough right now i just pray wont be strong enough to keep you from seing and enjoying the good parts of life! God bless friend :)
Lost my dad 2017 from a rare virus, lost my mom to cancer at 21. I would did anything to hear these words and song when I was at my darkest hours. This song helps me actually start to grieve. No parents, went thru a divorce and all I really had was me to pull myself off the floor and fight back against my loneliness. This song already brings me so much strength. Hang in there brother and remember your dad truly loves you and is very proud
This song grabs me, makes me want to run and tell everyone about it and shake them and say "why arent you listenkng to this perfection?" Anothe rower of me wants to hold this as my own, like im the okly perosn in the world who gets to hesr this. Just perfect.
5 and a half long years since my dad passed away. I don’t cry much anymore but this song couldn’t have hit harder. Thank you for an incredible song. I miss ya dad
29 years since I lost mine. Still cry. I will forever remember where I was when I first heard this. Was driving... As the song went on I clearly remember saying "Wow" twice.... The first was "I miss my father everyday. The kind of pain I pray don't fade away." The second was " I don't feel like crying, but I still just keep crying." I am still amazed by this song, and the chills still come with it!
My friend sent me a link to Stephen’s cover of Stand By Me and I was so impressed and moved that I went looking for more and this song’s title caught my attention. The song and the performance itself surpassed the title. My dad is currently in a bad way with lung cancer. I was heading home to be with him the day I got sent the link. Songs like Hometown, Father’s Son, Hang in There and this one are so relevant to everything that’s going on right now that it feels like I was meant to find this album when I did. It’s become the soundtrack to the last week or so of my life and at times has made me cry, but it’s also given me hope. It feels like the most important album I’ve ever listened to. Thank you Stephen Wilson Jr. 🙏
I just discovered this his man’s music and Im binge watching all his videos and Im in disbelief. Every single song is a masterpiece. The world needs to hear his message, and he should be rewarded with Grammy’s.
I’m doing the same exact thing right now! I’ve been binge watching his videos for over 2 hours now. I randomly stumbled across “Cuckoo” on Facebook and came straight to TH-cam for more. This man is amazing!!
One of my closest friends passed away at 36 years old, and the funeral is tomorrow... this song will be played during the service. Thank you for giving us an anthem to cling to amongst our heartache and loss. A wife, two kids, and a whole lot of people that loved him... and our grief is only love that's got nowhere to go.
My dad passed away from ALS in Nov 22. He was my best friend. I just usually shove sorrow down a deep dark hole and roll on. This song brought it all back and forced me to remember my Dad again. It freaking hurts so good. God I Miss You Dad.
I feel your pain my dad is also passed away,I miss him everyday he would have loved this song he loved to sing I can hear him singing it and that helps me cope with the pain,R.I P. pop I love you sing this one to Jesus and the angels😢
I was in jail when my grandpa died. He was a great man in my life in every way. I never got to grieve him in there. A year and half later, I can finally cry. Thank you Stephen.
This song found me at the right time. Losing someone close to you during the holidays isn’t easy. It’s good to remember that the intense grief we feel is the heavy recoil from an intense love we shared. The blessing is the life of love we shared. The real tragedy would have been never having shared that love with them. - Til we meet again.
I'm 43 years old and cynical as fuck about any new music I hear. Most of it is formulaic bullshit designed to take money from kids but there's still something so profoundly important about a person spilling their guts into a microphone. I absolutely love this song. Fair play man.
@stephenwilsonjr. hey man. I'm not bad...never as good as I want to be and never as bad as I think but I'm a little better for having your music in my life...keep up the good work brother
Every once in awhile, we are lucky enough to hear a rare and amazing musical talent. Last one for me was Chris Stapleton. Now, you sir are that amazing voice. Keep up the great music Stephen Wilson Jr. Great voice, great music, all around incredible talent.
The one thing that can make a grown man cry is the sound passion and feeling of a man singing a song like this that explains what we all have/are or someday will be feeling ❤❤
Found this song on 1/28/24. Had never thought of this pain in such a way. Beautiful songs don’t just exist bc of what we feel when we first hear them but bc of the beauty that is music in knowing our thoughts and feelings are shared w others. Music has been my outlet and part of my self talk for so long now. This song is such a blessing. Beautiful words and song
My dad passed away in 2020. I thought in time I would forget this grief but every once in a while it hits me. God I miss him. But this song reminds me that's it's just love. I hope I never lose it then 💔
I lost my dad nearly 20 years ago. Now I’m married, have 3 kids and I still find times where grief is overwhelming. Often it’s when I’d give anything just ask his advice on fixing something or a relationship issue. But I hear his words, his voice often. Glad I had time with my dad because I know many who never got to know their dad. This song perfectly expresses what grief is. It’s a love I have for my father.
Just when you gave up and thought you’ve heard all the best singer songwriters in your life. If he’s this powerful with just vocal and guitar can’t imagine how great his backing band would be !
This is the best description of “aged” grief I’ve come across. Fresh grief feels much different but that line, “I miss my father everyday, it’s the kind of pain I pray don’t fade away” is right on the money. Grief starts to feel comforting after enough time has passed. Super well written, 100% human song
Lost my Dad on Father’s Day, June 16th 2024. I recently found SWJr and his music has rocked my world. It has allowed me to start the grieving process. Thank you Stephen. I have tickets for his show in Birmingham AL in November. Looking forward to seeing him live.
I just found this song yesterday and it’s been on repeat… I lost my dad 10 years ago unexpectedly and its taken me years to get through it, I felt lost for a long time, and still do at times. He was my best friend and the biggest influence in my life. Like the song, I’ve learned to use the grief to appreciate him and all that he did for me and our family. Thank you for making this
This helps me so much. I struggled so much during two miscarriages this year when noboby except closest family knew I was pregnant. It felt like I wasn't allowed to grief because it was both in early pregnancy. This song helped me shift my perspective and allowed me to grief.
Never EVER stop making music. This is why you were put on this earth because I’ve never had songs speak directly to my heart like yours have. God bless you brother
He is so good getting you to feel the nostalgic moments in the past. Insane. His music always makes me reflect, therefore hopefully making me a better person. Its literally free therapy!
I started going to therapy again, and was diagnosed with PTSD from how my dad passed. 13 years ago and I still act like it just happened. I’ve been looking for a song or something to explain to people how this is. My mom too. I may need to get an instrument and sit at out and learn this. This is cathartic.
I randomly bought and acoustic guitar a few months ago, and it bas been truly surprising how strumming chords to a simple song can knock some things loose and let them free. I encourage you to try it ❤
Thank you for this song and Hang In There. Lost my mom in 2020 and I haven’t been the same guy since then. I miss her like crazy and these songs make me feel like they were written just for her.
I found him today, and he has re-lit my love of music on fire in a way I cannot even describe. It’s always been a central part of who I am, but I hadn’t connected with anything like this since childhood. I am 40. He’s incredible
That guitar riff is just so hauntingly beautiful. I discovered you back in May and am beyond grateful. You instantly became my favorite artist ever. Your creativity is truly on another level. From the hieroglyphics that represent each of your songs to every single nuance of your sound delivery, I just can’t get enough. Keep it up SWJ! Can’t wait to see you live!
This is the reason why I spend hours sorting through mediocre music. This song made me stop what I was doing and took me back. Thank you Stephen. Incredible song.
Truth!
Made my big ugly mug shed a tear
Same!
Exactly! My soul said more and I found this today. Wow
Thankk on you for doing that. Us little guys appreciate it.

In my entire 64 years on this planet, No man playing a guitar has ever made me cry. Until today.
Yes, exact Mr Stephen got something that ma heart reccons, but ma words cannot describe... ❤️🔥🤝
Miracle
Well Mr. Johnson, as a kid (I'm 22 in july) I never seen any of the men around me cry. Only the women. And only when an important woman in their life was gone, would I see them cry. I cried... a lot. I'm glad I read this comment from a 64 year old, as a 21 year old listenin to the same damn song. Have a good day sir
Me too brother
I'm with you sir. This song hits me just as hard after hearing it for the 100th time!
Bro is like Alice In Chains and 90's grunge meets outlaw country. My mind is blown.
Right!!? I just saw another comment saying his voice is giving Chris Cornell and now I can’t I hear the 90’s grunge lol
Covers so many genres it's insane. And flows from one to the next effortlessly.. perfect description bro
You win, that is the best description to this sound. I got chills.
Right!! Perfect description.
Yeah. Eddie Vedder blended with Chris Cornell does country but with amazing, emotion inducing lyrics
Nobody sounds like this guy - no over-produced, autotuned bullshit just a voice, a guitar and a whole lot of hurt. I discovered him from his cover of Stand By Me and then I watched the entire Print Shop set and then couldn't stop searching. His interview on The Print Shop was so wholesome and honest as well, what a beautiful guy. I love it when we find these diamonds.
Perfectly stated. Just a guy and his guitar.
ummm his name is bruce Springsteen...... and as good as he is, his sound has a direct correlation to the boss
Yes !!! Exactly. I found him the same way and living in the Los Angeles area and deal with many musicians, I immediately sent these same videos to everyone I knew…. So genuine and amazing !
Love this guy !!!
Yes !!! Exactly. I found him the same way and living in the Los Angeles area and deal with many musicians, I immediately sent these same videos to everyone I knew…. So genuine and amazing !

A guy and a guitar.
How fucking big this song is.
Thank you.
The amount of grief we experience is equal only to the love we know.
The greater the love the greater the grief.
What a privilege it is to know grief. Those who've never known grief have never felt love.
I love you all.
Truth be told

I will always be a young man
I’m a guitar teacher and music is my life. The second I heard your beautiful guitar my world stopped. Never stop singing. Never stop playing.
What's the tuning?
That guitar set up is epic!
Do you know what tuning he is using?

He was born for a reason.. his father was an amazing man. And it shows in his children
Man, wow. Just wow. This is only the third song I’ve heard of his but I’m 1000% confident he is one of the greatest talents of this generation
Exact same, a genius
Absolutely amazing

This single track is greater than the entirety of current mainstream radio.

I agree. Lost my pops 3 weeks ago as well and it seems like the universe sent this song to let me know he’s around. Sorry for your loss too.
Discovered Stephen today. I'm deep in the rabbit hole now and loving every bit of it. Wow.
Welcome to the club @brimstoneloa you will be lifelong member of the SWJ fan club and we're glad to have you 🎉
I'm 4 days behind you :)
Another artist that moved me this way recently: JJ Grey. Discovered him a few years ago and had a similar reaction.
I'm right there with you
Have you heard Stand by me?
If you don't win album/artist of the year, I give up. All of your music is just INCREDIBLE.
This song grabs me, makes me want to run and tell everyone about it and shake them and say "why arent you listenkng to this perfection?" Anothe rower of me wants to hold this as my own, like im the okly perosn in the world who gets to hesr this. Just perfect.

Griefs only love that's got no place to go --- damn man
Im with ya friend- damn man
That one got me too.. Hits hard.
Springsteen of the Rodeo. This guy is amazing.

I came here for Steve Wilson but stayed for Stephen Wilson. I fucking love this song
For LOVE that has no place to go ... 💔 = GRIEF ... please have mercy on us all teach us what we need to know and watch from a far 🤓
This song found me at the right time. Losing someone close to you during the holidays isn’t easy.

Album of the year man, you truly did something special with this one!🙌
100%
100
Album of the decade. Haven’t heard a record this good since I can’t even remember

Every once in awhile, we are lucky enough to hear a rare and amazing musical talent. Last one for me was Chris Stapleton. Now, you sir are that amazing voice. Keep up the great music Stephen Wilson Jr. Great voice, great music, all around incredible talent.
This guy is amazing. Cannot stem the tears

Country Bruce Springsteen...... But your own style. Love it
How have I missed this incredible soul. I have just spent hours crying to this album. It is possibly the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.
from a veteran musician-artist .. this guy is channeling some force that we all need right now !!!! tears.. much needed
Am I the only person who hears a little Chris Cornell
Oh wow I didn’t hear it till reading this comment lol 😂 your right though
Yes!!!
💯
And Eddie Vedder
😮 omg.... Yesssssss! Wow! Good observation!! Didn't realize it till I read your comment!
Post grunge indie country is a unexpectedly great mix
Found this song on 1/28/24. Had never thought of this pain in such a way. Beautiful songs don’t just exist bc of what we feel when we first hear them but bc of the beauty that is music in knowing our thoughts and feelings are shared w others.

I'm partial to rock and roll and metal. But I am a country boy his music takes me home. Something about his music just touches your soul.
My dad passed away in 2020. I thought in time I would forget this grief but every once in a while it hits me. God I miss him. But this song reminds me that's it's just love. I hope I never lose it then 💔

This song perfectly expresses what grief is. It’s a love I have for my father.
Then deep music and real artists do still exist !!!
Just when you gave up and thought you’ve heard all the best singer songwriters in your life. If he’s this powerful with just vocal and guitar can’t imagine how great his backing band would be !
Grief is for sure LOVE. I have been grieving for years now for the death of my parents. I can't seem to shake the loss.
It don't get easier friend we just learn to cope with the pain better sorry for everyone's losses God keep your hands on everyone dealing with losses
I've been grieving for 12 years for my own father's passing and never heard the pain explained so well until hearing this song
Same seventeen years in. Saw Stephen last Thursday night. Lots of tears ran down my face and I’m totally okay with it.
I love your devotion to Our Lady Guadeloupe
He is a fabulous songwriter

He was my best friend and the biggest influence in my life. Like the song, I’ve learned to use the grief to appreciate him and all that he did for me and our family. Thank you for making this
I'm 45... Been 29 years and it still is hard sometimes. Music like this brings it back full circle.
I was 13 then, very nostalgic listening to this song.
This man is an incredible songwriter, musician and artist. Amazing stuff every time…
They HEY is my favorite part. I both cry and smile at this song.
This helps me so much. I struggled so much during two miscarriages this year when noboby except closest family knew I was pregnant. It felt like I wasn't allowed to grief because it was both in early pregnancy. This song helped me shift my perspective and allowed me to grief.
Never EVER stop making music. This is why you were put on this earth because I’ve never had songs speak directly to my heart like yours have. God bless you brother
How come I've never heard of this man? Sweet lord!
Simply the best Voice in music history now! Thank God we have something Different
His music his voice gives me chills,,,love it !!!
Storyteller musician extraordinaire 🎉❤
First time listening, and first time crying in a long time. Men like us sometimes need songs like this.
"Grief is only love that's got no place to go."
I feel this, to all the people close to me I lost. I'll keep crying, but they'll guide me.
This song is a balm for my battered soul
Thank you. ❤❤
This is one of the most incredible songs out there.
He is so good getting you to feel the nostalgic moments in the past. Insane. His music always makes me reflect, therefore hopefully making me a better person. Its literally free therapy!
Burying my mother tomorrow! Thank You for the wisdom in this song! ❤️🥲❤️🥲❤️🥲❤️🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
This is real music! Powerful message and lyrics not like this pop country crash they shove down our throats!
I love the fact his guitar looks like it has been inside a fire pit and sounds so awesome
Your father would be proud of you. Keep sharing your gift with the world..
A songwriters existence...
Damn, this is such an amazing song.
Masterpiece
I started going to therapy again, and was diagnosed with PTSD from how my dad passed. 13 years ago and I still act like it just happened. I’ve been looking for a song or something to explain to people how this is. My mom too. I may need to get an instrument and sit at out and learn this. This is cathartic.

Lost my wife to stomach cancer 7 months she was 48. This song is a map of my heart. Meegwetch!!! ❤
So sorry my friend. Much love to you.
I’m so sorry man
No one, I mean no one, loves this dude more than I do!

A severely underrated artist. Raw talent and relatable lyrics. Bravo!
Had this on repeat... lost my dad and hits home. Thanks for the song
He emanates songs, music & feelings just effortless...
Thank you for this song and Hang In There. Lost my mom in 2020 and I haven’t been the same guy since then. I miss her like crazy and these songs make me feel like they were written just for her.
My mom died Friday at age 94 😢😢😢Going to miss her so much 😢😢😢😢Thanks for your beautiful music
Prayers of love and peace for you. She'll always stay with you.
God, this is amazing.
Amazing 👏 reminds me of early Bruce Springsteen and Willie Nelson combined 👏👏🙏🙏👍👍
The best song i've heard in a long time!
I've lost my father and grandfather the last couple years. This song makes me tear up every time. So much love with no where to go...
Wow!
Buried my dad last week and my dog three weeks ago. This song hits like a ton of bricks. I’m so damn lost right now.
Just keep going ❤
Be kind and patient with yourself as you move through your grief. ❤
I found him today, and he has re-lit my love of music on fire in a way I cannot even describe. It’s always been a central part of who I am, but I hadn’t connected with anything like this since childhood. I am 40. He’s incredible
Mr. Wilson captures everything 🎉🎉 beautifully
God Bless
That guitar riff is just so hauntingly beautiful. I discovered you back in May and am beyond grateful. You instantly became my favorite artist ever. Your creativity is truly on another level. From the hieroglyphics that represent each of your songs to every single nuance of your sound delivery, I just can’t get enough. Keep it up SWJ! Can’t wait to see you live!
