This is why Porter is so amazing to be. He’s been through these same lows as me, and the music he made/used to get out was the album “Nurture” was the album that changed MY life. Absolutely insane. Someone I have never met made the exact album that I needed to survive. Wow
That's the thing too. Music is improvised not planned. It's hard to make music when you've exhausted your creativity. You could probably play an instrument and see what happens but if that's all you do, you'll eventually just run out of things to work with. That's why I take a break from time to time from making music and come back to it a different time. You gotta let your creativity recharge.
The complete beauty and irony of this piece is that instrumental hook that kept him going literally was the "something comforting" that he was looking for.
I don't know how many times I've watched this video just to see Porter's face light up with the most innocent, sincere smile the second he starts playing the hook.
Seeing him smile just listening to that hook gave me a smile just as wide. ^^ It always makes me so happy seeing artists feel good about their own work.
It’s so weird hearing someone’s confessions of their lowest point be the epitome of your highest point. Or maybe it’s not weird. It’s human. It’s something comforting. Sincerely, an industry game designer/dev that needed that when it mattered most. Thank you, Porter. You’ll never read this, but hopefully some people will…and it will spread that positivity.
I'm very grateful for Porter 🙏 he's a genuine inspiration and awesome person and I'm thankful he makes such amazing music that helps so many people live our best lives, including my own! With a spring in our steps 😊
This was just recommended to me. I love this tho. Something comforting is my favorite song as it really helps me feel more positive and happy whenever I listen to it
This is such an important video and the part of the song he taks about that he knew that he wanted to keep at the start that was his vibe, you can totally feel that in the song when you listen to it ❤
i went thru this just last year and got over it last month and i feel so good and the best part about listening porter talk about these stuff is the fact that i actually relate to him on another level!
just wish i could find something comforting myself.. im the same age as porter but a lot less talented and going nowhere.....i wish giving up was an option
Please don't ever consider that... you're in NO way less talented. Talent is one thing, work and effort is another thing. Literally everyone's stuff sounds mediocre at the beginning, no one starts out as a pro, no matter what their profession is. Maybe there are people who tell you you lack talent, whatever, don't listen to them. Giving up guarantees you'll go nowhere, 100 %. But if you keep going, you WILL find something comforting eventually. So hang in there :)
When Porter overshares, I listen. 👂
porter is a whole feeling to me.
I want to give him a consensual hug.
O k
he gives nice hugs.
Me too. That song touched my heart.
we all do
Soy
I’m so glad he loves that instrumental segment as much as I do 🥰
Porter's music is like medicine for the soul.

that was worlds for me at 14, and nurture helped me ease back from escapism to nature

When the music said "ti li, ti li, ti li tu ti", i can feel what feelings porter wanna express

that chunk that he played is my favourite chunk of any song ever for me it's so cool hearing what he thinks of it too!!!!!!!!!!!!
That smile at 1:15 when he played the clip made me so happy and idk why.
that small snippet is my fav part of the songs which always makes me go back
I don't know how many times I've watched this video just to see Porter's face light up with the most innocent, sincere smile the second he starts playing the hook.
Halfway through the video I was like
“Oh! That melody was the something comforting!” Idk if that’s how he thought about it, but it could be.
Seeing him smile just listening to that hook gave me a smile just as wide. ^^

This video made me realize why this has become my new favorite song on Nurture.
All I want to do is just hug Porter.
Seeing him completely light up with a smile when he played that section brought a huge smile. If you're depressed, you can get through it!!!

He looks like abella danger
Down bad ?
Porter is an example of how you can be feminine and straight, and still not try and become a female.
He's bound to transition any day now
