That is the line that fully sold me on this song. My sister played it for me and I was like "this is kinda catchy" but that one line was so poetic and sung with such emotion I had to go back and reevaluate the whole song.
This album was GENUINELY one of the most beautiful albums that I've heard to date. It's an instant classic. Give it a listen when you're on a long drive
Don’t listen on a long drive. You might end up driving off the edge of the road! I like it, but it truly is a sad album. Just like he described where he was from lol
Me too. It’s true. Even before I heard that lyric I started realizing I went from a funny, super laid back person who was always joking, to this quiet, anxious, depressed person who lost his sense of humor. Hard to be funny when you’re sad af. 10 years of amazing memories become 10 years of sad memories and you start to question everything you do and say….which leads to this state. When I heard those lyrics, I knew exactly what he meant.
Noah on genius!?! All time favorite writer/artist. Noah is just as incredible live & has always been one of the kindest people to meet. His recent growth is beyond deserved ❤️
Noah is a perfect example of what happens when you're an insanely talented writer, have an incredibly unique voice, and create a pop-like version of an old genre (such as folk) that your unique writing style and voice fits well, you're bound to be one of the greatest artists of all time.
I love this man so much, I’ve been listening since busyhead and he never disappoints. I’m going to miss when his tickets were $50 but I’m glad he’s getting the credit he deserves
I saw Noah & Dean Lewis in San Francisco before Busyhead came out, and the tickets were $15. It was such a great show, in a really small venue, and now I’m paying 10x that price to see him in an amphitheater, which is crazy!! I’m really happy for his success, though… he’s insanely talented, has worked incredibly hard, and deserves every good thing!
I so regret not going to a concert a couple years ago.. now I had to pay so much to go to a sold out packed concert instead haha. Can't wait to see him this summer!!
Man I was thinking about going to one of his shows this summer in vancouver but its $120 for tickets at the worst seats and $200 for decent seats at a medium sized venue. Crazy and unfortunate because I cannot afford that lol
As a Canadian I knew right away what he meant, like that depressing season between October and the snow in December that just drags on and just feels like you're stuck in a constant in between and all your college friends are away till the Christmas break. Summed it up so well in a few lyrics just brilliant.
@ibuyfriends4467 2 things wrong with this, first of all, not everyone likes the way he sounds. There are billions that don't. And second, even IF everyone liked how he sounded, claiming that that makes him good would be an adpopulum fallacy.
@@xsconflicttheory2784 2 things are wrong with what you said, then, if you want to be like that. First off, you don't need to bring other singers into this for no reason when he is an amazing singer. And he also wasn't missing every note. Not everyone sings perfectly at all times, but he performed well.
This is my 5 year old's favorite song, and the first time I've seen him pick up on subtext in a song - he asked me what happened to the singer's "friend" and why they were gone. Really speaks to Noah's ability to capture emotions in his music that it has such a wide audience.
I discovered his songs in a 4 month depression and i love it. People say " why dont you listen to popular singers " or " you dont have good music taste " but i listen because i love it, not because of his popularity
Oh my god he’s so talented. I am in love with this song. Brilliant lyrics. So relatable to being stuck in a small town in the winter where you can’t get away from the reminders of the one who left you
I do feel very proud of him for finally getting the attencion he deserves. i have being a fan since the beginning and I know he never disapoints because his creations were always very creative and made with passion. My favorite one, so far
This is the best song I've heard in 2023. I don't know how to explain this feeling, but this song combines completely different things. This is good sadness. Even though the lyrics are very sad, Noah sings these lyrics in a way that makes you not as sad as you should be. This song is filled with love, emotions, disappointment, and reflection. Thank you very much for this song, it will be another piece of my heart. Thank you 🙏🏻
I admire Noah's work so much. He's an incredible artist. Wish him all the success ♥️♥️♥️ great video. Amazing how his voice is the same live and in the studio version

@@xsconflicttheory2784I’ve seen u comment under other peoples comments and if u don’t like his voice click on another video? Don’t try to disprove someone from their opinion, there’s no point 😭 damn
I listened to this song for the first time during the scariest trip i did in my life and god it helped me so much to escape reality. This guys is amazing
Noah, you can’t fathom how much your music has helped me navigate life and grief the last few years. Thank you, from the bottom of my ❤ for all you do (and for being g so open about your own struggles and life).
This song is wildly powerful i swear. You could have never heard the term "stick season" and have absolutely no context whatsoever and still, you have the same exact imagery
I remember seeing and following him on tiktok like a year ago. Glad to see him doing so well. He deserves it. Such a beautiful voice that shows his soul through his music
Had the privilege of listening to him live in anchorage at the alaska State Fair. It was the best concert I've ever been to. He is extremely talented and captivating. I'm so sad that his show at fenway got sold out so fast but happy for him and all the people who get to experience him live. 🎉🎉
I’m not from a small town and we barely have seasons where I live and I’m not going through a breakup but I related to every single lyric and that’s what good music does ❤
I grew up in PA but I instantly knew exactly what he meant by stick season and I really got into his music over the last 3 years as I been in college (I heard and loved his song Hurt Someone years ago) but as I’m going to school in the South, his entire discography has a very very nostalgic feel for me. His voice and the levels to his lyrics are insane
Heard, I’m a Vermonter my man. I know exactly what you are saying. I know your huge now and you have a lot going on. Never met ya man I’m a little older then you but every song I have listened to you have made hits home. You speak for alot of us true Vermonters.
My dad grew up in Vermont and although I've only visited a few times (in the summer) I can feel the stories he's told me about winter and "stick season" in Noah's songs. Brilliant writer with a beautiful voice!
The lyrics are so clever and really project the feelings that we all have… which makes his music so relatable. These songs just really hit me and made me think ya I feel that way sometimes too… Thanks Noah!
As a fellow Vermonter, we are incredibly proud of Noah. Although I’m not a super fan like my wife and daughters are, I absolutely MUCH prefer listening to Noah then anything else my daughters like. lol. Seriously though, it’s wonderful having someone representing Vermont and our way of life in music besides Phish. They are awesome too for sure, but I feel Noah represents a deeper meaning of our way of life here in the green mountain state. Thank you sir! Wonderful interview and incredible music. Keep it coming.
I love this song so so much. Musically, one of my favorites. Lyrically, I can relate to the sentiments. The dad line is especially personal to me because, paired with the dad line in Catastrophize, it describes mine. Poetically, this song describes my relationship with the place I grew up in. I miss it desperately but I can't go back. The place I grew up in doesn't exist any more, I wouldn't want to go back even if I could afford it. It moved on, it grew without me. The people I loved moved out, forgot about me, and I'm too ashamed of how I've wasted my life to try to reconnect. I grew up in small town in Washington state and when there's light rain here, I think of it. I had a vacation planned to go back and visit for my birthday in early 2020, but Covid made me cancel. I still haven't been back I've been depressed for years, and I've made very few friends in the places I've lived. The past year or so I've been opening up and "piling something good on all the bad" but I still get hit hard with depression, and it's made it very hard to sustain relationships or find a career worth doing. There's more, but I think that illustrates why I love this song pretty well.
‘I’ll dream each night of some version of you, that I might not have but I did not lose’ is some of the truest words I ever heard
That sentence absolutely rips me apart
That is the line that fully sold me on this song. My sister played it for me and I was like "this is kinda catchy" but that one line was so poetic and sung with such emotion I had to go back and reevaluate the whole song.
I told my crush this part instead of i love you. We are together for 5 months now thanks to the song
what's the meaning
@@CleanMinivanRUGHTTTTT
his voice sounds the exact same live and recorded, it's crazy to see how talented this guy is
Yeah ! I'm amazed
He sounds exactly the same
thats whats so great about him he is so raww
I read the comment before I heard his voice, and I was still surprised, you're right, sounds the exact same
I got to see him in concert, I would pay an extra $30 to see him live again, I'm not a huge concert guy but he sounds just as good if not better live.
This.
This album was GENUINELY one of the most beautiful albums that I've heard to date. It's an instant classic. Give it a listen when you're on a long drive
Go listen to Ænima by Tool, this album is an embarrassment compared to Ænima

I think this album was not my type but i was/ i am album is my fav after busyhead

Yeah it’s called autumn mate, nothing crazy
@@CALLUM-0-1 Thanks for your insightful feedback 🤣
I had never heard of the term stick season down here in Connecticut but it perfectly encapsulates why I hate winter so much
as a new englander that moved out of state this album is such a gift. it’s incredible how he made an album feel like a place. thank you Noah!!
Feels like home
Not Vermont, but rural Minnesota and I get this
THIS 🫶🏼 also Northern attitude 👌🏼👌🏼
as a new englander who moved to florida. his whole discography reminds me of massachusetts. it feels like home.

I met him on a Carnival cruise seven year ago! One night on the deck, he played his guitar and we sang to Breezeblocks 😊
Every time I hear “a SOCCER mom”
Me to which makes sense soccer mum waiting for your kids in the cold lol
I'm so glad I'm not the only person...
I thought it was that forever since it actually makes sense too

YOU ONCE CALLED ME FOREVER NOW YOU STILL CAN'T CALL ME BACK
came here after being obsessed with the song and he seems like such a sweet, humble guy, genuinely deserves all the success he is so talented
I'm Canadian. I absolutely LOVE "stick season", as in the time of year. Best time of the year. (The song's pretty awesome, too)
He’s so genuine in this interview. I love everything about him. My sister saw him live and loves him too
I’m from Vermont and this song encapsulates it very well!! Love Noah!
Literally the best artist I’ve ever seen perform live. Already bought tickets to see him again in the fall!!!

one of my favorite songs of all time by one of my favorite artists ever

Noah, if you’re reading this, why do you say “sawk” when saying “I saw your mom” please. I think you’re doing it to mess with me
Soccer mom⚽️🤰😍
THANKYOU I think this every time I hear it
I do toooo!!!! Another reason I watched this was to verify that he in fact does not say “soccer mom”😂
thought it was "stalk" or "suck" your mom for some reason 😂
I sing “suck your mom” and it fits so much better lmao that’s what I hear when I listen anyway
when he said we are our parents in some way wow i miss my mom everyday and i live on for her
Absolutely incredible song.
His smile is the most wholesome thing everr, mann he is so talented.
his voice is everything I LOVEEEE this song 😩
Vermont is amazing it’s so beautiful, we are getting a second home there because I go to camp there every year
Crazy to see the musician I’ve been listening to in my car since high school get the recognition he deserves ❤
He is so adorable and then bam, he sings and it heals something in me
