I'm watching something great begin and I feel so honored to be here. I hope to see y'all go far, I'm sure you will!

I feel so lucky to be alive at the same time as y’all and luckier still to KNOW y’all and make music together :’)
oh also first EVER

You were born in the back of a moving van
Caught between the winter
And the promise of some Angelino's faith
Hidden drums in the marching band
You said, "Caroline'll kill me
You can pry it from my cold dead hands"
I think I crawled out of a big black hole
Just to meet you here
Provin' my worth with the burn in the atmosphere
And still, you don't owe me anything
But you're throwing me pennies and I'm
Holding a cup and a cardboard sign
You don't owe me anything
I woke up in a box in your childhood house
Papercuts between my fingers
And a twenty-dollar bounty on my head
Buckin' up, backing down
Guess if you were gonna need me
You probably would have cornered me by now
But I swear I crawled out of a big black hole
Just to meet you here
Provin' my worth with the burn in the atmosphere
And still, you don't owe me anything
But you're turning your pages and I'm
Face to the floor with my torn up spine
You don't owe me anything
(And I'm walking home again
And you are good enough to pretend
That I've taken the fall
That I was never here at all) ×3

It's instantly a song you've been singing for years.

I showed this song to my mother and it made her cry. I cried at my desk today listening to this. Please never stop making music

This is the song I’d use in a recap video of my life.

Every now and then, RUclips recommends me something that changes how I view music, and this to me is the pinnacle of that experience. Wow, I’ve never heard anything quite like this and I can’t wait to hear more.

" but you're throwing me pennies and i'm holding a cup and a cardboard sign" i feel this so deeply thank you for putting it into words i love you

been listening to this on loop for the past two hours and just can't get over how gorgeous the harmonies are. looking forward to any and all future music from you guys :^)

this song has made me feel a level of nostalgia for a time that wasn’t gloom. the instruments make me feel like i’m spinning in a field. it’s beautiful. i hope to see you go far ✨

I SPRINTED here from tiktok

I can’t believe how wonderful this song is. There’s no way y’all are not gonna go far, you truly created something special

Pre-saved straight away! 10/10 song, good luck in the contest!

I feel like I'm early, and I'm honored. This is incredible.

As a musician, the dynamics (especially at the end) are elite. Please make a lot more music. This is incredible.

Thank you Algorithm. Im happy We Just Met. (Pun Intended)

I'm here from tiktok and I have just listened to the 2nd verse and chorus on a loop for like half an hour, it's so gorgeous, reminds me of shallow alcoves!

I just found your music last night, and today I found myself breaking an unconscious man in a state of seizure out of his wrecked car and a big part of me coming down from the insanity of the experience was this song playing on a loop in my head. Your angelic tones played a big part in my life today. Thank you.

Been thinking about this song all week. It has single-handedly gotten me out of a bit of writer's block I've had for the last month. I might actually hit my deadline thanks to you ethereal folks.

I truly can't stop listening to this - I don't buy a lot of physical media but if/when you release a full album, I can't wait to buy it

When the algorithm gave me something that pleases my ears, heart, and soul. Will never not cry listening to this!

Those harmonies are magical

breathtaking! i was already living for the harmonies and the instrumentation but when the flute kicked in i ascended to another plane of existence

Wow, such a beautiful song, big thanks to RUclips for recommending me this! Hope you'll make it to the tiny desk 😇
Sending you lots of warm energy from France

so so proud of you guys always and can’t wait for npr to meet we just met

Came here from tik tok, and this is the best piece of music I’ve heard in a long while. So grateful to be here at the start of your journey ❤

i commented on my other account i think but im back like three days later to say this song hasn’t left my mind for more than 30 seconds since then

SO GOOD!! Love the textures and instrumentation and vocals so much. Thank you youtube algorithms!

i need this song in my veinsssss

Beautiful. This feels like if a song were a home.

Congrats on the music release! I’m going to have it on repeat for months. But nothing will ever beat the beauty and warmth of this tiny desk performance.

Omg what a gorgeous song, makes me feel like how the later part of the relationship with my first love did

There are not many songs I go through the effort of trying to learn both vocal parts of, but this one I’ve been infatuated with

I think I've listened to this like 20 times in the last 24 hours. I don't even know you guys, RUclips just recommended it to me. The vocal harmonies, the strings, the flute - I'm hooked!

Not even 500 likes is astonishing, this is a certified banger
