- Thanks to Simi for the gorgeous backing vocals and piano in this!! And thank you Sam for filming and editing the visuals while I was busy playing my tunes on stage. We showed Sam this song for the first time while on tour and it instantly had him feeling some type of way so we just had to record a cover.

His voice for me is like leaning on your friend’s shoulder while riding back in the car from a day away from home, it’s dark out and your eyes are slowly drooping closed.
this is so accurate
and its raining
But with autocorrect
This comment is so beautiful
@Biscuit trust me not only you lol
POV: you overhear the quiet kids in the band room while you’re walking out of school, and you decide to stay and listen.
Im in band
Am i listening to myself?
And then you realize it's taco Tuesday and if you want to get a gud taco u gotta run
omggg ur too loud
I used to do that all the time
SO TRUEEEEE
I gotta stop falling in love with these type of guys.
Gaby delmar better than c*nts like me
Why because hes gay?
@@cursedconnoisseur664 Maybe because he doesn't know that your exist :/
Raisin Invasion he’s aromantic bro
Raisin Invasion he’s not gay lmao. He literally talks about girls I’m all of his songs related to love
The beginning reminds me of Minecraft music.

Rip young cavetown's voice
Eivan BarnesV2 I still love his big boy voice so much though!!!
His butterfly voice has finally emerged from his caterpillar voice. Although I like them equally.

I know but he's still great. if you speed up the video here sounds like he's 17 again

Simi x make sure to chug down your DayQuil and chicken noodle soup. Get better soon 💕💕💕
You deserve way more followers I’m shocked
Literally everyone: depression has entered the chat
Me: happy crying
This song just gives me a feeling of nostalgia but a happy nostalgia. Like something bad happened but for a reason. :)
Mr. Nobody I believe melancholy is the word you’re looking for
I am glad you can have a positive spin on this song! ^^
This cover does put more of a happy spin on it for me
Yes
Yo this is exactly how I feel about this song
robbie and simi:
playing notes on an instrument while singing and having to hear the other person play and sing different things but still sounding perfect
me the whole time watching this, appalled:
“my poor little raisin of a brain could never...”
His voice reminds me of sunlight ya know that feeling when you aren’t thinking of anything your heads just empty and you can feel the sunlight shining down on you and that’s the only form of warmth. With an empty min you just let the warmth wash over you as you get lost in songs that give you that same feeling.
this was a beautiful way to put it :)
That's gay

I love him so much because his voice fits so beautifully with this, he’s the most calming person I’ve ever met (saw him July 2019) and he feels like such a friend in so many ways. If your urge to hug him is this great now, wait til you see him perform live in front of your eyes!
Edit: I saw him in February 2020 (this comment was originally written before I saw him in February) :)
Isaac Goldie deadass, what a wholesome human being- seeing him irl perform is such a blessing, can't listen to his music the same afterwards
I bought my little brother one the fig beanies you're wearing at the Glasgow show and he won't take it off. He was so excited when he saw you wearing it

I would just like to loudly appreciate the clarity of the simplicity in this song
It really helps you have full focus on the vocals which are just S0 damn good
Your voices just melt together like butter
ᄋ: it reminded me of when people mix chocolate morsels in milk and they stir it and it becomes a sweet and smooth little concoction.
I need healing wow that is a really good comparison! Cool 👌🏻
Loudly appreciate meaning blast it at full volume
Høler if u taking the time to comment that with a bad Intention u most likely couldn’t make it sound as perty lol
@@hler7576 basically
Why do I like this more that the original
@Isabella Elgrably ?
My story starts here. And you always helped me robbie.
I was 10 when cutting myself came in. I was took away from my own sister. My real mom left me for good. I went with my real dad stayed with him for about 7 years. I started visiting my real mom at age 8. I was really happy. But every time I asked to talk to her she would just say maybe later then never talk with me. My sister was always there. She was the reason I was happy. Age 9 I stopped seeing my real mom me and my real dads house was a mess and I did't know who I was anymore and I was just. Upset. I wasn't the girl I wanted to be at all. Eventually I decided I didn't want to be a girl I was about to change. Never did because I had friends tell me I was beautiful the way I am. Age 10......I got took away from my stepdad and real mom because I was upset and my real dad sent me off to my aunt that abused me. This was because he couldn't take care of me anymore and I understood. At first my aunt never abused me I was perfectly fine. Then things flopped and I got depressed. She would hit me with high heels, she would throw things at me and she even almost crushed my arm. My cousins told lies on me she believed and always hurt me. Besides one. He was always there for me we did everything together and I was enjoying it. Then. I found out that "I wasnt worth a lot" I dont know how but I ended up taking knives,razors,etc anything that was sharp and I would cut my skin open. 11 came around I went to another one of my aunt's. She didn't abuse me. But somehow I kept thinking I wasn't worth anything. So I kept cutting. Well after 8 months I moved back with my dad. The house wasnt a mess. Then. It flipped. The house was a mess. My arms had cuts. I didnt do anything but play my phone. Then a person took me. She told me that I would have to stay with her for a while. Well the house came clean and it was fine. But I was told...that I couldnt leave til im 18. I was upset I don't like being here. I still cut. But at times I am fine. And I hide. A few days ago I got into a fight with one of my friends so I ended up cutting. My sister was the reason I survived because I almost committed suicide. Well I still have those thoughts im 13 now. And upset still. But somehow. A friend online I talk to showed me a song of cavetowns called "this is home" and ever since I just listen to his songs to feel better. And it helps. He keeps me safe. The reason Im not dead yet is because I am with my best friend.
To cavetown: if you read this. Yay! If you dont thats okay. But dont mind mt story. Dont pin it dont share it. Honestly. I dont even like sharing my own stories. But if you can relate I want you to know your not alone. Every year at least a lot of teens commit suicide. Because thier parents either let it slip by like mine did. Or they couldnt handle it. But I want everyone out there to know they are not alone.
Thats basically
My story.
Your skin isnt paper so dont cut it
Your face isnt a mask. So dont hide it.
Your life isn't a film...so..dont..end.......it
You are so incredibly strong. Even though I’m just some random person in the internet, please know that I am so proud of you for staying alive. It must be so hard to deal with that trauma and pain. And I am so sorry that you were treated like that. You are so much braver than you think. Please, keep fighting. I believe in you :)
you are very strong...i really hope it'll get better..
You deserve happiness and you will get it one day! Don't give up❤️

i know im late to respond to this but ur amaing and strong

@@waaa8077 yes
his voice is like laying on your bed, earbuds in, talking to that person. not necessarily your crush, just that one person you can talk to for hours before realizing its morning. its like that.
So me and my boyfriend went to a school dance and for the most part they only played trashy rap (not that all rap is trashy but those songs were) but they played slow dancing in the dark and we danced to it and it makes my gay little heart happy everytime I hear it.
Lost In Thoughts ,that is truly amazing and beautiful
Nice.

Pov
You're the popular kid, you pass by the music club room after club activities have almost ended.
You have been assigned the duty to check on everyone before you knocked the door,
You could hear two faint voices , talking, you decide to listen as your shy crush is also in the music club but you never got to see them because other populars didn't let you near anyone else.
Your heart stopped as you heard your crush's voice.
The song starts and you're mesmerized by the voices , a pang of jealousy in your heart as you hear a female voice harmonise with your crush's voice.
The song ended with the most beautiful note you've probably ever heard.
The two people in the club room start giggling.
You don't know why your heart felt heavy after hearing them giggle together.
This song definitely was sung from your pov by by someone else,
the girl who was singing with them probably was the one who you saw with your crush all the time.
You walk away, head hanging low , oh how you being popular stole your chance to be with the love of your life.
"I hope she isn't seeing anyone"
"You've been singing this for her?"
"Yeah"
Thank you for reading the most confusing pov arghhhh I can't English at all anymore
This is very nice... Takes me back
Joji can you believe it? You’re inspiring others. I hope you’re happy. I hope you are somewhere out there, proud of everything that’s happening with your personal life. I wish you the best Joji, we miss you. I wish you could see how much you’ve inspired people and how much you’ve gradually moved them in awkward and beautiful ways, your filthy frank videos always made me smile-but your emotional songs always made me smile in a way I didn’t understand. I’m glad you went on TH-cam, and I’m glad you continued to follow your dreams. I miss you, we all do.

This is just what I needed, two of my favorite music artists and my favorite song all in one video and I absolutely love it!
omg ur voice is so deep when I first subscribed u sounded 11
Ikr
sameee
Its not deep...
because he was 11 tbh
10Tickle-sama it is compared to when he first started TH-cam
robin grew up to be one handsome boi
this specific cover gives me such potent nostalgia, I would listen to this one on loop for such long periods of time when I was younger and sad, thank you for all of the memories Robbie
I can't emphazise enough how much I love your voice, and for some reason, it strikes me even more in this cover... Your own songs and cover are so soothing and relaxing to me, thank you caveboy!
You picked the right person to collab with! She's hella good;
your music inspires me ❤️

Same he's incredible
His voice makes me cry, in a good way

@@paulffee Yay! Someone agrees with me
this is beautiful. the vocals, the beat, everything. i started crying, this is a work of art
Both of my favorite artists
o h him and simi have talent talent
this version touches me so much more than the original for some reason. maybe it’s robin’s voice but you can hear the pain and it just makes me think about how everything in my life is falling apart. the way he sings
give me reasons we should be complete
you should be with him i can’t compete
you looked at me like i was someone else
just hurts me because those are the very lines that get me every time and really remind me of how nothing is going right.
idk but i love this song so much and i love robin and this cover :’) the feeling of it is so similar and equal to the original but i feel the difference in the qualities of robin’s voice and joji’s voice make them so drastically difference despite how nearly congruent they are
isaac newton hey I hope you're okay.
And yes I completely agree
Nope, your ear bleeding
THIS IS AMAZING, all emotions wrapped into one cover!!!
Found this again after 3 years and it’s still as beautiful as I remember
this is incredible. your voice adapts so well to every different song! and yours and simi's voices work so well together!

Wow! I started watching him about 4 years ago and though I've noticed how his voice has matured in his newer songs, this cover really makes it evident. What a nice voice!
I have a cat named fizgig (named him before I found out about cavetown he’s actually named after the creature in the dark crystal) so if you take out zgi you get fig so that’s your daily douse of useless information.
rob and simis voice go together like butter and toast yo
I love the sweet piano melody in the background
I watch this video over a year ago.. and still havent bored watching this over and over again
