I can't believe that this series was nearly 5 years ago now. I remember being so excited for every new upload. And I still come back to them regularly because they are so beautiful.
Kristian, PLEASE release this song!!! It's a masterpiece. I've listened to this video dozens of times these years, it brings me peace and hope. All your work is admirable (you're probably my favorite artist, at least among the ones who are still alive), but I seriously believe 'In little fires' would reach the top 10 of your finest compositions. Thank you so much
Half an hour ago I was sitting on my couch alone, in tears, because i recently graduated but now have absolutely no idea what to do with myself. I was overthinking every decision I've made up till now and feeling anxious about the future, when I stumbled upon your project. I just wanted to thank you for doing this. Your music reassured me immensely, and watching your videos sparked a sense of hope and motivation in me. I saw you live a few years ago in Amsterdam and have never stopped listening to your music since. Once again, thank you.
Romy V neem aan dat je Nederlands bent. Ben jaloers dat je hem in Amsterdam hebt gezien. Maar thanks voor je comment. Beetje dezelfde situatie hier, en je reactie maakte dat eventjes helder. Hou je haaks en geniet van je behaalde diploma!
Don't ever stop listening to his songs. He's one of the best folk singers around. His songs keep me going even with all the problems we have to face day to day. HEAD UP, ROMY, THAT'S WHAT WE'VE GOT. GOOD LUCK.
That's always been one of your strengths, to bring out the beauty in sadness. Wonderful song, thank you for sharing your creative process and journey. What a privilege.
It seems like Kristian's music is the only body of work that can encapsulate the heartache we are feeling across the world. You're right, we need you more than ever!
This man changed my life 7 years ago when I found him. I wouldn't be who I am today without that I believe it 100%. Words can't describe the good you've done in my life. And how you've molded the way I make music
Wow.. this simple video made me stop and "recharge my batteries" to face life for now... i love how your music always talk directly to my soul and gives that comfortable feeling of coming back home... Thanks for sharing these moments with us...
NEVER stop doing what you do!!! Have followed you for years and caught you live in Belfast and was over joyed at your concert! When you done the "King of Spain" you paused a little longer than usual at the end line and i shouted "Ahh come on" in my Irish accent and you stared me dead in the eye!! Lol One of the best nights of my life. Thank you for the music man!
you're one of the reasons I'm still here, music gave me a hand out of the pit of hell I threw myself in. as a poet, I totally agree with abstract thinking being needed now more than ever. I try to spread the same with my writing, I seriously doubt you'll ever read my comment personally, but I would really enjoy sharing some abstract writing. I use nature to explain emotional struggles and lessons. even if not, I still fully support you, and my respect continues to grow. keep it up! and most importantly, thank you.
i'm so happy you're making new music. i found your tunes through a good friend of mine who passed suddenly, and listening to them is both painful and hopeful. but with this song here, i feel so much more hope. thank you Kristian. thank you.
thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm struggling right now and this song is a sliver of ethereal hope I can cling to for awhile. I heard it just now and played it over ten times in a row. I can't get enough, it's so achingly lovely. thank you, Kristian, for sharing your voice and the way you translate the world through your gift. your music has meant more to me than you'll ever know.
wonderful!! I love all your albums and appreciate very much how you change the sound of your music in your last one..I hope to see you soon in Rome because your last concert have been amazing. You were magnetic on stage
My goodness this is gorgeous. Mr. Matsson, your efforts to be "of use" are off to a smashing success as this song has already brought me hope (and perhaps a tear or two to my eyes).
This is like a breath of fresh air. This is the kind of inspiration that any artist needs to get re-charged. Thank you for being of use and inspiring the masses with your beautiful music and creativity. I'm excited to see how this grows.
Sometimes the state of our world can be so very dispiriting. This project, this song, your voice, and the warm & supportive comments below certainly have lifted my spirits on this dark & wet London eve xx.
This is my favorite song of the video project so far, it is truly hypnotizing. I'm a huge fan and saw you with a band in Lisbon on February 2016 on a very rainy day, and will remember it forever. Please keep up the amazing work you do, bringing a little happiness in these crazy times and to this crazy world.
Dude, that was beyond awesome! The video is beautiful and the song is great, the kindness in it is needed for such days like these we live. Really excited for the new demos to come! Hugs from Brazil.
Dear Kristian I've been listening to your music for quite a long time now. It has brought me through hard times, made me fly in high times and enlightened me when there was only little light in my life. In the last couple of months I often thought to myself "what a dark place this world has become" and I feared for the future of my recently born son. But when I heard your words in the beginning of this episode and listened to "in little fires" and all of those those beautiful songs of "the light in demos" I started to change my mind and thought "well maybe all is not lost after all!". For that I want to thank you with all my heart! Please keep on inspiring and cheering up people with your wonderful lyrics and tunes. To me you're definetely the greatest poet of this century. Hope to see you on stage soon. All the best! t
Such a fragile and sweet melody. A big fan of you sends you a massive gratitude from south Spain. Thank you for doing what you do and inspiring other musicians to keep on looking for those melodies hidden in little things in life.
From a fellow countryman I just want to say thank you for starting this series. You've been an inspiration for so many years, and I truly appreciate you letting us get another layer of your musicianship by sharing thoughts and demos. So, tack Kristian!
You are a beautiful human being. Thank you for your music, its accompanied me in a lot of hard times. Was listening to it in the bus this morning, watching the sun on the river. Through sad times, it also makes life beautiful.
truly one of the most beautiful videos I have seen in some time. The exhale near the end and the part immediately preceding it absolutely kills me. How gentle your soul must be Mr. Matsson. Thanks for everything.
Becoming is better than being: to grow, live, and ultimately express ourself. And you, Kristian, are a rare and sublime representative of this key aspect of life. Thanks for sharing this!
I listened to this when you first posted it, and haven't come back to rewatch-but still find the chorus flitting into my head every few days. Tremendous song; thank you for sharing it with us.
Been an inspiration both musica and truly how to better search for happiness. You've truly changed lives with what you do. Thank you and please keep creating always.
Just wanted to say thank you for these magical little videos. Your music has been with me for much of my adult life, always there when I needed a moment to step back and breathe. Every time I listen (especially to The Wild Hunt) it feels like arriving at home. I'm inspired by your project to help in whatever small way "to feel and practice love in our hearts." I'll try too. Thanks for sharing these with all of us.
Thank you for being you and for your music. You are a huge inspiration to me for playing guitar. I've been playing for 13 years and i always learn something new while listening to you. Thank you.
Creativity, abstract thinking, be of use. I love this on so many levels. Lovely birds and absolutely stunning guitar playing. Thank you for making my day more beautiful.
this is so tender, beautiful and honest. feel i should be paying for the privilege of hearing and seeing such exquisite artistry. Hope you create a DVD with the vids all together, and the intros, they are vital. Thank you Kristian for your amazing observational and musical gifts.
Kristian,you are a genius. I love how pure and selfless your demeanor is and how genuine all of your expressions feel. I've only seen you live once and it was very mesmerizing. thank you for sharing your gift with the world.
Don’t know how it took my so long to stumble across these videos. Thank you so much for making this... spreading hope and light and sharing your creative journey. It’s desperately needed. Have always appreciated your music but words can’t express my gratitude and empathy for your motivation to make these videos. Keep doing what you’re doing. It reminded my the filmmaker Charlie Kaufman’s BAFTA. Cant recommend this enough.
I absolutely love your new demos! I've always loved everything you've created but these take me to a new level!!! Thank you so much for creating beautiful music!! You are a beautiful soul, sir!!
I've been listening to you since the first LP and have always maintained that you've never written a bad song. This not only carries on that tradition, but it is legitimately one of the most beautiful things I've heard this entire year. Thank you for your music and your words.
Thank you for these amazing videos. Never had the privilege to attend one of your shows live, but I can say that I've almost seen all the live videos on TH-cam there is, and listened to every song you released countless times. These videos are just a blessing, I keep listenning to them over and over and over. Keep doing what you do, Kristian.
Wonderful stuff! So excited to hear new acoustic work. I've always appreciated that he switches things up live, and that the recording of his newest album was so different than the previous ones. But these humbler recordings resonate with me a lot more. Of course, I do love when he plays a normally acoustic song electric on stage as well. Beautiful video and beautiful song!
I don't often leave comments on TH-cam, but I cannot wait to see what the next few months will bring us. Thank you for taking us on your journey and allowing us to be a part of your creative process. Truly inspiring.
Love the video concept, please keep them coming. That song is amazing, you really did a good job with the mix between the solo performance on the couch and the horns/strings. It sounds so complete and full.
Thank you for sharing yourself, your thoughts, and your music. Your songs have meant a lot to me and helped in dark times. This was lovely, and I look forward to continuing to hear and see whatever you share! You have such talent in so many directions, and it is generous of you to share it!!
You are a huge inspiration and it has been such a great experience following your music. I saw you play in Leesburg, VA and there are hardly words to explain it. Thank you!
This is absolutely stunning. This melody is gorgeous. Your work is so important to us and to me, as a human being and as an artist. Thank you thank you thank you.
I love it. The rawness of your first material is why I fell in the love with your music. This seems like an attempt to hit that rawness, without letting go of musical production standards. I'm quite excited.

Please release this, a true master piece!
That sigh at 4:34 or so. Somehow takes an already incredible song to another level.
This song is insanely good
I'm going to figure the song out by weeks end. So far it's so much fun to play!
I love it. Fantastic song and wonderful cinematography. I am happy to see hope in this next era of your music. The last album was a bit sad sometimes.
Haha, so was I. Thank you for your kind words
That's always been one of your strengths, to bring out the beauty in sadness. Wonderful song, thank you for sharing your creative process and journey. What a privilege.
I think it was your best album yet. While none of the songs individually were my favorite, as an album it is a masterpiece. Thank you.
This is like a giant hug.
It seems like Kristian's music is the only body of work that can encapsulate the heartache we are feeling across the world. You're right, we need you more than ever!

That place is beautiful! So is the guitar. And the forest. And the waterfall. And the birds. And the guitar.
That's Taughannock Falls in upstate New York. And it is beautiful.
The world is beautiful
NEVER stop doing what you do!!! Have followed you for years and caught you live in Belfast and was over joyed at your concert! When you done the "King of Spain" you paused a little longer than usual at the end line and i shouted "Ahh come on" in my Irish accent and you stared me dead in the eye!! Lol
One of the best nights of my life.
Thank you for the music man!
+Givingitashot. I remember that! Thank you, brother.
The Tallest Man on Earth Nooooooo. Seriously man! Thank you.
Givingitashot. Dude that's awesome 😂 gotta love the Irish
Now that is so cool!
Where can I get this wonderful song? ❤️
You are an absolute gift and inspiration my friend. I hope you keep doing what you do forever.
1:34 for replays :)

Beautiful song & video. Thank you for sharing your music and your soul :-)
Kristian I am obsessed with your music! I love how raw and intimate this video is I can't wait to see more.

You really couldn't have done that any better. Love Joni and love that version (and pretty much everything you do). Thanks, makes me inspired.
Such a fragile and sweet melody. A big fan of you sends you a massive gratitude from south Spain. Thank you for doing what you do and inspiring other musicians to keep on looking for those melodies hidden in little things in life.
This is exactly what I needed, thank you ☺️
Please dont ever stop making music, so excited for this project
