I thought something was wrong with me for the longest time. I thought I was supposed to love someone and have children. I changed myself 1000 times over for 1000 different people. This song resonates with me, and I'm probably twice your age. You helped me. Thank you.
@@hellono7731 I don't know how can I explain it but when you first meet someone close to you you don't shack hands you hug :) so I'm saying that his voice feels like a hug because it's good :).
"Crying is not for the weak, its for those who have been strong for too long" Edit: I would like to say your welcome to all those that have saw my comment. When I first heard this song I had no idea what it was about. I related to It because of these lines " get a load of this monster/train wreck" I had anger issues very badly. So I believed I was a monster and was afraid to hurt people. Even though I have recovered from this I still feel like that at times. I'm sure for any trans, non-binary, ect people even feel something like what I've mentioned. I put this comment to give a kind of acceptance. Because while I may not know you personally, I still accept who you are. Regardless of gender. You are still people, with your own dreams and feelings. Maybe someday we'll meet in real life and never know. For now Goodbye and have a wonderful day/night.
the fact his voice is so raw and brings out the emotion to every verse is very comforting and how hes so soft and lightly tracing the notes when he says "oooo" is very impressive and very lovley
Hey! I just wanted to clarify that this is in no way a stab at Mounika for making 'Cut My Hair'. He sent me the track before his album release asking for permission to use my vocals, and I absolutely loved it so I said yes of course. I wanted to make this video for 2 reasons: Mainly because it's an old song that I'm proud of and a lot of you guys enjoy, so I wanted to do a rerecording of it a few years on, and also because I'd seen people had been reposting Mounika's track without the 'feat. Cavetown' in the title, and there was some confusion in the comments about who was singing. If anything this is a bit of a stab at the channels reposting the song who chose to remove my credit. Here's another reminder to check out Mounika's beautiful track 'Cut My Hair' which is linked in the description of this video! Sorry for any misunderstanding! - Robin
It’s fine, I never misunderstood what you said (My only problem is that this version isn’t on Spotify so I can listen to it all day😂) I’ve recently found your music and I’m in love with it all, keep it up💙
HannahKateBell i feel like i like his pure voice more tho pure isn't probably the right word e: it's like this voicecrack but not really a crack when he sings sick right now in the old one that i like so much ahh man
Reading these comments are like therapy .it’s just crazy how much you can relate to people he has helped us all so much dealing with transphobic parents,depression,bullying and any life problems we have gone been dealing with and reading thees comments helped me realize I’m not the only one going dealing with transphobic family .I haven’t come out yet or cut my hair but reading thees comments is really helping and know it might be sooner then I thought for me to come out thank you all I feel like this is my second family so thank you cave town and everyone.
personally Rob, I think you need to do more videos like this without the worry of it being different. We want it to be different. you wrote this song when you were young and you've grown and changed so much since then. you are a marvelous individual and if you didn't do this we wouldn't be able to see what a beautiful soul you are becoming. your deep voice and smooth strumming sound different but I swear it is perfect. you and your art are very special and its great to see you change over time through your music. So please never worry about your voice or anything because it's you and pure and that's why we're all here
This was the first video I ever saw of Robbie. It makes me so emotional knowing it's been 5 years now. I Love you, Robbie. Thank you for keeping me alive through high school. You are Loved. -Rose
I was reading this out loud and it was so true that I focused to hard and read ' He calms my anxiety and sandwitch ' !!!!!! I am happy I wasn't reading out loud 😂😂😂😂😂
The reason I like Cavetown is that when first hearing his songs- the words don't seem to make sense (this one does) but the more you listen, the more sense it makes and they can be interpreted in many different ways :3
Since I’m not really a supporter of lgbtq due to personal context I would not like to share, I like to interpret this as a song about someone hiding their feelings and personal styles, so in the line “I’ll hide my chest” i think of that like I’ll hide my heart and emotions, or since raising your chest high is a way to show confidence, hiding my chest is like losing your confidence, sorry I just wanted to point that out, it’s ok if you hate me for not supporting lgbtq
@@lavenderoarfish68 awh that's okay, at least your not like those people who just suddenly bashes lgbtq people. People always have personal stuff that had happen to them wether it's lgbtq people or not, it's very understandable. Also your interpretation towards the song has a point too.
this song when i need a hug feels like invisible arms tightly wrapped around me, but at the same time makes me feel as if i'm distancing from those open arms..
*His voice is so soft. Probably everyone want his voice. Everyone love his voice. Even the song it's beautiful. Probably people doesen't want to hate. Do what you love. Keep up the good work!*
Het Spook why are you comparing him to Ed? Just cuz he’s a British ginger who can sing??? Him and Ed are two completely different people who are special and unique in their own way. The same damn thing happens when people compare Melanie to Billie and it’s just very unnecessary and annoying tbh
The lyrics that always get me in this song: Am I dead? Sometimes I think I’m dead, ‘cause I can feel ghosts wrapping my head. But I don’t want to fall asleep just yet Like rlly I almost cried the first time I listened to that 😭 ❤️
"it'll be a little different" What I expected: change octave What I got: beautiful song that just ugh it's so fucking amazing I'll take your entire stock
Hey Robbie, I wanted to thank you for giving us this song, this cover of it in particular. Seven years ago I lost my older sister named Sofía. She was the best girl I've ever met. Sadly, I was never able to think of her with the good memories, only with her loss. She left her last profile picture in Facebook with a message saying "I want to go home", and two years ago after checking her profile one last time, I found this song right after. I cried myself to sleep, knowing she most probably feels in home now. And that she did all she could to make me feel at home too, even if we had it rough with mom and dad. I am now older than her. But she will forever be my older sister. I love you, Sophie...
That was an amazing story. I hope things will get better for you. All you have to do it try. She is not gone, she will forever be in your heart and will never leave. I hope you have a great day/night :)
Well shit that line must hit really hard may i ask if it doesn't bother what do comments look like seeing how the colors are white and black for a normal person
After years. YEARS. Of crying because of my gender identity, my mom is finally letting me cut my hair (I’m non-binary). I’ve been listening to this song for years. I’m so happy it came out because it really relates to me and my problems and it always makes things better. I’ve even gone the extra mile to learn this song on the ukulele when I don’t have my phone or my computer and I want to sing this song to myself. Thank you
First time I heard this version, I thought "You're voice hasn't changed that much." That said, I just listened to the two versions back to back... and now I am holding back tears. As someone on the list to start hormone therapy soon, this gives me so much hope for the future. I hope my voice is affected as dramatically as yours.
@@lazyjuiceboxx2528 people didnt misinterpret the lyrics, he mentioned himself that its a song about being aroace and having gender dyshoria, he is a strong supporter of the trans community.
this is the second song i heard from Robbie and it remains my favourite version of this song. The talky intro and everything, it feels so warm and lovely and cosy and I *am* crying, but. it's a good cry. Thank u Robbie
I've loved this song for so long. I get over songs so quickly. I'll love one song one day then the next day its annoying. This never got annoying. I love all your songs
I still come back and listen to this song, and it still brings me comfort, this song is what helped me a lot to build up my confidence to come out, and when people didnt accept me and when i continued to struggle with my identity, this was my comfort song, and still is, this is probably going to be a comment lost in a video where comments probably arent active, but i just feel so comforted by this song, and i am proud of my current identity, and a lot of that is dedicated to this man and his song that is dedicated to a special part of my heart
After 4 years of begging my parents to let me get my hair cut, I’m getting it cut in about 2 hours (I’m trans ftm) and I would always turn to this song and my favorite part was, “I’ll cut my hair, to make you stare” “Ill hide my chest, and I’ll figure out away to get us out of here” Thank you for making it
@@Ann-uq5jn I'm so happy for you!! I remember when I cut my hair after four years of begging and it was an amazing experience. Hope everything went well!❤️💚 Edit: this song is a masterpiece
@@viraltrends4433 boy my voice is as my friends say 11/5 scratchy 86 percent voice crack and 200/5 just generally annoying and bad. My friends May not seem like friends. But them and my mom are my only support.
Hi, I’ve grown up listening to this song for as long as I can remember I discovered this song first and fell in love with it and today I’m facing listening to this song. Why? Well because this was the last song I was listening to before my dog, my best friend had to be put down so today I’m going to listen to this song to show that I will never forget him and I will always be by his side just like he was mine. He died about 4 months ago. I miss you Flash I love you so much and I will see you in heaven again one day but today I’m going to listen to this song and remember you and remember the reason I’m keeping myself alive, I’m doing this for you buddy! Love you, hope your having fun up in the sky x
Vxnillla bro I started thinking about an anime character’s backstory.. like.. it sounds LIKE him. This song describes a personality, and that personality belongs to someone different depending on who’s listening. I think it sounds like Izaya Orihara from an anime called durarara. Someone else could think it sounds like their niece , or maybe a close friend, or simply a co worker who is down. Either way, this song is very powerful, and it’s nostalgic even if you listen to it for the first time
I found out about you just a week ago and I'm already in love with your music, it's just so pure and it fits every situation! Also puberty didn't damage your voice its even better! Keep going and make us feel like we're living in a movie
Hey Robin, when you continue to grow as a successful artist, and your vocal chords change, and your songs continue to create powerful voices for the people who cannot speak, and your albums spread throughout the entire world and back, please just stay the sweet, unique, funny lemon boy that you are now.. because that is the human we all love.
You probably won't see this but I've been listening to your music since my freshman year of high school (2021) and it has gotten me through intense periods in my life. From a breakup to having trouble making friends, your impactful lyrics have spoken to me in no way anyone else could. With sadness and guilt taking over my life, I listened to your music to help me fall asleep amidst the loneliness of the cold, gray walls of my bedroom. I guess the music caused me to have a dream one night. We were sitting in a sunny patch of grass. We had a talk about identity and how it shifts and forms over time; and that I'm valid no matter what. I woke up listening to the same comforting voice I fell asleep to. Even though it was only two years ago, it feels like quite a long time since I first heard "This is Home" This is a lengthy comment, however, I'd like to say thank you for the hope. You've changed lives.
Ok how do you not have more likes Like this relates on multiple levels to the song and meanwhile other people are like 'omg i cried' and they get 1k.... I have a trans friend too
@@ilikepancakes3516 I feel the exact same way, except I was forced out of the closet, so my parents know. Since I don't really feel much better than what you've said, and I have some major issues, I can't really be reassuring, but I can promise you there's at least one thing you're good for.
I was about to comment how he turned from a girl to a boy (because you used 'she' first and then 'he' after) and then I realised what the song is about :)
This is a great song. I have actually been searching for it for 2 months after listening to an amv that didn't show the original artist's name. This is one of the greatest songs I've heard this month.
Usually when I am sketching, I'll put music on autoplay. This is one of the few times a song got me to look up from my paper from curiosity of who is singing such gorgeous pieces or art. Your very talented (yes more talented than those pop stars on the radio) and your voice and songs are incredibly calming and it gets my artistic side going. THIS SONG IS SO FLUBBING AWESOME GOOD JOB YOUNG SIR.
Kaitlyn Li Same here! I usually incorperate lyrics of songs in my sketchs or base them off of interesting/meaningful lyrics, and I have made so many beautiful art sketches based off this song's lyrics
He voice is like and house that is only warm colors and a table your eating and the sun shining through the window and memory's. Really don't know how to explain it
Chords (for this version) Tune uke to F, Bb, D, G (whole step down) Intro/Verse Cmaj7, Cm, G Chorus Em, C, G Bridge Em, A, C, G That’s accurate to this version but if you want to play the original one, it’s the same chords, just regular GCEA tuning. Hope this helps :)
to whoever needs to hear this: whatever you are struggling with, sexuality, race, school, all around depression, love, hate. whatever it is you will get through it. we all will. i have many things I am dealing with rn. many of which I am not ready to get off my chest yet but. in the end, it will be ok. in the end we will all be ok. we can make it through this. you are NOT ALONE. there are countless people on the internet just like you. and we will make it through this together. if you ever need a shoulder to lean on, I'm here for you mate. if nobody else cares, I still do. if you're ever feeling down it helps to talk to someone. feel free to open up. you're safe here. no matter what you tell yourself, you are loved. you are cared for. and there are so many people in you're life who would have to see you go. if you're dealing with thoughts of suicide, I would recommend talking to a doctor. if you're dealing with you're sexual orientation, its cool mate! you be you! there are so many crazy things going on right now. I am actually super lucky. but I understand that so many others have lost their jobs. they no longer have a support network. so much has gone wrong in so little time. i can help you through this- no, not I. we, WE can help you through this. we are all looking out for each other. stay safe! :)
Fuck this made me cry. I’m 12 and struggling with my gender, sexuality and mental health and this comment section is amazing. Thank you. I hope your doing well
tw; mentions of suicide "and there are people in your life who would have to see you go." that hit something. i tried to kill myself a few weeks ago and went through so much with my mom and pysch wards and stabilization units, everything felt like it was falling apart, everything felt so empty. I didn't realize how many people wouldbe had to see me go or hear I died from suicide. that comment makes me feel happy that the attempt failed. thank you. I will keep going and going to make people happy and proud of who I am, I still feel so empty and numb completely but I know there's a purpose. a reason I'm here.
this man has really got talent, after all these years of listening to this song it’ll always be one of my favorites. It never gets boring. And not just this song most of his songs are really just so amazing that I never get bored of, you’re so talented it makes me wanna cry.
I don’t want to get emotional but this song has helped me through hell. Suffering from extreme depression is extremely hard and when I felt hopeless I would play this song I just feel like I need to thank Robin for helping me through really tough times.
Don't let what people say about you get to you, They just say those things to make you feel worse it doesn't actually reflect your personality, don't let things that aren't true get to you.
Same. It's been rough for me because I'm gender fluid in a Christian family that are really transphobic. everyone misgenders me and calls me she/her when I'm they/them and everyone calls me by my dead name. But just listening to this song makes me feel so much better
@@bumblebreetookurmom when it comes down to it don’t pay any attention to them. No matter what anyone says you are always full of potential and a bright future even if it feels like the world is against you remember the ones that are there for you and the friends that never left you. But on top of that when life gets dark take a moment to look back at your faults and learn from them, then take another moment to look at what you’ve done good even if it was something as small as holding the door for someone you can always be the light to someone else especially when they need it the most. And as for your family I live in a Christian home as well and I want you to know no matter what is said there is nothing wrong with you, God doesn’t hate you and your not committing a sin. The Bible teaches to love one another no matter what and I feel that’s somethings that been forgotten.
This is my first time hearing this song and I'm crying so hard??? Edit almost 5 years later: Damn I really thought I was cis back then lmao. I came out recently, after moving to a new country. It feels so free and so right and I’m truly happy for the first time in my life. To all the closeted kids out there, I promise it does get better.
hey:) i really hope you’re fine and i wanna let you know, that you are not alone here! i’ve been watching and listening to this for past 3-4(?) year going through many different life periods. i truly believe this song and many others of him will help us like they did

But when he sings, my god how much he shines.

Agreed
i think so too
Yea, i love him and his music sm😊
Some people say she but some say he so now im confused what is he/she
What genuinely fascinates me with British people is that when they sing, their accent be like "aight, imma head out"
Ikr I had to look up his nationality bc it just disappears
Except for that Fire in the Booth guy
Except Yungblud. His accent gets even heavier than normal
Kinda like 2D from Gorrilaz
That's not saying their voices are horrible, their voices are.... Fancy
That’s legit me lol
I thought something was wrong with me for the longest time. I thought I was supposed to love someone and have children. I changed myself 1000 times over for 1000 different people. This song resonates with me, and I'm probably twice your age. You helped me. Thank you.
this is very sweet, i'm glad this song helped you 💜 you don't have to change yourself for anyone, you're wonderful as you are
"i changed myself a 1000 times for 1000 different people" is such a beautiful quote. so much meaning behind it.

personally Rob, I think you need to do more videos like this without the worry of it being different. We want it to be different. you wrote this song when you were young and you've grown and changed so much since then. you are a marvelous individual and if you didn't do this we wouldn't be able to see what a beautiful soul you are becoming. your deep voice and smooth strumming sound different but I swear it is perfect. you and your art are very special and its great to see you change over time through your music. So please never worry about your voice or anything because it's you and pure and that's why we're all here

this song when i need a hug feels like invisible arms tightly wrapped around me, but at the same time makes me feel as if i'm distancing from those open arms..

Het Spook why are you comparing him to Ed? Just cuz he’s a British ginger who can sing??? Him and Ed are two completely different people who are special and unique in their own way. The same damn thing happens when people compare Melanie to Billie and it’s just very unnecessary and annoying tbh
Always come back to this song
Just to cry😢
trudy medina I cry because
I can relate
Same here :,,)
Lol sammmeeee
trudy medina you can not come to cry no way
I FREAKING FIXED IT!!!
cause i had to fix the like from 539 to 540 😋
The reason why you are my favourite artist is because your songs gave me calm and relaxing and remind me of my childhood
It makes me sad that some people on the internet are more understanding and loving than people’s own god dang parents
It makes me sad that one day I’ll be a god dang parent ;/

I think you know the redheads can sing to -.-
@chloe bleu LOL
So he’s basically Ed shreeran.
The lyrics that always get me in this song:
Am I dead? Sometimes I think I’m dead, ‘cause I can feel ghosts wrapping my head. But I don’t want to fall asleep just yet
Like rlly I almost cried the first time I listened to that 😭 ❤️
Yeah, the lyrics hit hard.

fuck yes was about to comment that
Same here.

Why do people take time out of their 24 hour day to dislike such a beautiful song?
Sparkythegachagirl_983 why would they even think that?! He clearly addressed it in the beginning that he wrote it
The voice change doesn't matter the feeling that matters is still there and is as good as it can be
Something about Cavetown as a whole makes me feel at home. Haven’t felt at home for a very, very long time. Nice job Robin. xoxo
i relate to this comment so much :)
Ikr! He’s voice gives you this warm and calming feeling ☺️
What is a "houm"
Never had one of those
What?
Same :(
"it'll be a little different"
What I expected: change octave
What I got: beautiful song that just ugh it's so fucking amazing I'll take your entire stock
This version has a warm feeling to it. The earlier version has the sickly dying vibe to it. Both are good in their own way.
Thank you for making me feel something again, and for saving me.
Hey Robbie,
I wanted to thank you for giving us this song, this cover of it in particular. Seven years ago I lost my older sister named Sofía. She was the best girl I've ever met.
Sadly, I was never able to think of her with the good memories, only with her loss. She left her last profile picture in Facebook with a message saying "I want to go home", and two years ago after checking her profile one last time, I found this song right after.
I cried myself to sleep, knowing she most probably feels in home now. And that she did all she could to make me feel at home too, even if we had it rough with mom and dad.
I am now older than her. But she will forever be my older sister. I love you, Sophie...
That was an amazing story. I hope things will get better for you. All you have to do it try. She is not gone, she will forever be in your heart and will never leave. I hope you have a great day/night :)
I hope you can get through it
Im so sorry i hope youre doing better
Hey im an older sister and that love that you have for a younger sibling is wonderful, you made me cry
I’m so sorry about that, sending love💗

that really hit home cuz I'm colour blind
Mate you not the only one me courlarblind too
Don't worry every one have a talent and so do you
Awww it's gonna be okay! 😊
Well shit that line must hit really hard may i ask if it doesn't bother what do comments look like seeing how the colors are white and black for a normal person
Now this is epic
After years. YEARS. Of crying because of my gender identity, my mom is finally letting me cut my hair (I’m non-binary). I’ve been listening to this song for years. I’m so happy it came out because it really relates to me and my problems and it always makes things better. I’ve even gone the extra mile to learn this song on the ukulele when I don’t have my phone or my computer and I want to sing this song to myself. Thank you
congrats !!!
Congrats! I believe I’m non-binary and bi-curious, and I hope it went well!
Ik this was three months ago
But im happy for u:)
hey good job im straight but i support every one tell me how it is today
im so proud of you
mom : just watch one video before you go to sleep
me : *say no more*
If my mom said that i would go on a live stream that has already been streamed by my favorite yt XD
Lol
I am your 666 like uwu
And yet Satan has taking over you but..... not anymore!
Same here. This is just... It's so relaxing. If you listen to this after a hard day, you're bound to sleep well.
First time I heard this version, I thought "You're voice hasn't changed that much." That said, I just listened to the two versions back to back... and now I am holding back tears.
As someone on the list to start hormone therapy soon, this gives me so much hope for the future. I hope my voice is affected as dramatically as yours.
Omg!! I don't know you but I wish you the best through your transition!! You went this far buddy. Good luck!
I just came hear to say nice profile picture but also love that for you!!
Mamamew TheRani is he trans ??
Lazy Lucy I honestly thought he was ftm the first time I heard his songs, which this was the first.
@@lazyjuiceboxx2528 people didnt misinterpret the lyrics, he mentioned himself that its a song about being aroace and having gender dyshoria, he is a strong supporter of the trans community.
You can ruin a song, but you can’t ruin a master piece.
Tiktok: hold my remixes
this is the second song i heard from Robbie and it remains my favourite version of this song. The talky intro and everything, it feels so warm and lovely and cosy and I *am* crying, but. it's a good cry. Thank u Robbie

When I saw this comment. I was like aaaayyyyyyy
I've loved this song for so long. I get over songs so quickly. I'll love one song one day then the next day its annoying. This never got annoying. I love all your songs
This IS so different from the original, but different doesn't mean it's not infinitely as beautiful!
Does anyone else think this more recent version of the song should be recorded and put on Spotify or something
It is

Omg the hat XD But yes it really is great
I like how u had to add on that "and an incredible hat." lmao
life.
I still come back and listen to this song, and it still brings me comfort, this song is what helped me a lot to build up my confidence to come out, and when people didnt accept me and when i continued to struggle with my identity, this was my comfort song, and still is, this is probably going to be a comment lost in a video where comments probably arent active, but i just feel so comforted by this song, and i am proud of my current identity, and a lot of that is dedicated to this man and his song that is dedicated to a special part of my heart
After 4 years of begging my parents to let me get my hair cut, I’m getting it cut in about 2 hours (I’m trans ftm) and I would always turn to this song and my favorite part was,
“I’ll cut my hair, to make you stare”
“Ill hide my chest, and I’ll figure out away to get us out of here”
Thank you for making it
Im so happy you can finally cut your hair!!💖💖
congratulations! i hope you love your new hair cut!
@@Ann-uq5jn I'm so happy for you!! I remember when I cut my hair after four years of begging and it was an amazing experience. Hope everything went well!❤️💚
Edit: this song is a masterpiece

Hi, I’ve grown up listening to this song for as long as I can remember I discovered this song first and fell in love with it and today I’m facing listening to this song. Why? Well because this was the last song I was listening to before my dog, my best friend had to be put down so today I’m going to listen to this song to show that I will never forget him and I will always be by his side just like he was mine. He died about 4 months ago. I miss you Flash I love you so much and I will see you in heaven again one day but today I’m going to listen to this song and remember you and remember the reason I’m keeping myself alive, I’m doing this for you buddy! Love you, hope your having fun up in the sky x
When CaveTown Started singing, A Wave of Emotions Came Over me and I started Crying, I wasn’t sad though....
Ikr, Robbies voice is so beautiful 🥺
Same
Vxnillla
I agree ;v;
Yes
Vxnillla bro I started thinking about an anime character’s backstory.. like.. it sounds LIKE him. This song describes a personality, and that personality belongs to someone different depending on who’s listening. I think it sounds like Izaya Orihara from an anime called durarara. Someone else could think it sounds like their niece , or maybe a close friend, or simply a co worker who is down. Either way, this song is very powerful, and it’s nostalgic even if you listen to it for the first time
I found out about you just a week ago and I'm already in love with your music, it's just so pure and it fits every situation! Also puberty didn't damage your voice its even better! Keep going and make us feel like we're living in a movie
One year later...
The music video was released. Great job Robbie!
I'd argue that it's actually 4 years :)
Amber THW i cried
👌=(*^*)=👌
Frick you have 666 likes gotta change that fast!
i love how ppl unliked to change the number
omg im back after 5 years and this song still hits so hard, love you Robbie
Your beanie reminds me of the bottom part of an acorn and I love it.

Hey Robin, when you continue to grow as a successful artist, and your vocal chords change, and your songs continue to create powerful voices for the people who cannot speak, and your albums spread throughout the entire world and back, please just stay the sweet, unique, funny lemon boy that you are now.. because that is the human we all love.
The best part “I’m a little sick right now but I swear” my opinion.
Thanks
For them likes

It’s supposed to be ‘I swear I will fly us out of here’ as in he’s not swearing but he’s making a promise. :)
Thanks again
You probably won't see this but I've been listening to your music since my freshman year of high school (2021) and it has gotten me through intense periods in my life. From a breakup to having trouble making friends, your impactful lyrics have spoken to me in no way anyone else could.
With sadness and guilt taking over my life, I listened to your music to help me fall asleep amidst the loneliness of the cold, gray walls of my bedroom. I guess the music caused me to have a dream one night. We were sitting in a sunny patch of grass. We had a talk about identity and how it shifts and forms over time; and that I'm valid no matter what. I woke up listening to the same comforting voice I fell asleep to.
Even though it was only two years ago, it feels like quite a long time since I first heard "This is Home"
This is a lengthy comment, however, I'd like to say thank you for the hope. You've changed lives.
It doesnt matter if your voice is different as long as we hear your songs
Your voice is soft
Your voice is warm
your voice is home
F r ð s t y S n Ø ̲ ̲w̲ like mash potatoes
I have a friend,
This used to be her favorite song.
I still have that said friend
This is still his favorite song.
Ok how do you not have more likes
Like this relates on multiple levels to the song and meanwhile other people are like 'omg i cried' and they get 1k....
I have a trans friend too

@@ilikepancakes3516 I feel the exact same way, except I was forced out of the closet, so my parents know. Since I don't really feel much better than what you've said, and I have some major issues, I can't really be reassuring, but I can promise you there's at least one thing you're good for.
I was about to comment how he turned from a girl to a boy (because you used 'she' first and then 'he' after) and then I realised what the song is about :)
@@ilikepancakes3516 ur not meaningless
i honeslty like this one better than the original recording because it makes me sadder and i like that

Jesus Alvarado what are friends
Drakon Beatbox that's what deppresion does to me😶
Hey drakon I know a pro therapist just saying
Try to look for depressing songs,u would like it
This is a great song. I have actually been searching for it for 2 months after listening to an amv that didn't show the original artist's name. This is one of the greatest songs I've heard this month.
It's really hard to make me cry
But
This did that, so I wanna say I love it and your voice
You should listen to Big Bowl In The Sky if you haven't yet :)
Usually when I am sketching, I'll put music on autoplay. This is one of the few times a song got me to look up from my paper from curiosity of who is singing such gorgeous pieces or art. Your very talented (yes more talented than those pop stars on the radio) and your voice and songs are incredibly calming and it gets my artistic side going. THIS SONG IS SO FLUBBING AWESOME GOOD JOB YOUNG SIR.
Kaitlyn Li Same here! I usually incorperate lyrics of songs in my sketchs or base them off of interesting/meaningful lyrics, and I have made so many beautiful art sketches based off this song's lyrics
Oml. I love that word. FLUBBINGGGG!
I’m just gonna comment this bc I recognize your profile picture.

ITS BILL
Pigeons And turtles Pfft, greetings.
Oh man this was so good it made my heart hurt :’( it definitely sounds different than the original, but not in a bad way at all. This was lovely
Just listened to the original from 2017 and this immediately after.
It was so pure to see Robbie's voice change :')
why is he not famous like actually
He's to beautiful for the rest the world 🌎
I agree with these replies
Llama he is famous to us ✨❤️✨
Llama he is now 😊
Idk what you're all talking about
your voice has changed a lot u are growing up so fast and im proud. love u big boy
this is home is my favorite song by you. it means so much to me and I'm So Happy that it exists. i hope you're doing well caveboy
Thank you so much for making this song. This is by far the best song I have ever heard
He voice is like and house that is only warm colors and a table your eating and the sun shining through the window and memory's. Really don't know how to explain it
That’s a great explanation
Oh my god youre right. thats exactly what it feels like. ALSO WHAT SOMEONE ELSE WHO KNOWS WHAT THAT FEELING IS OH MY GOD :D
yes. YES
Aesthetic girl 69 omg yes
THATS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL
Chords (for this version)
Tune uke to F, Bb, D, G (whole step down)
Intro/Verse
Cmaj7, Cm, G
Chorus
Em, C, G
Bridge
Em, A, C, G
That’s accurate to this version but if you want to play the original one, it’s the same chords, just regular GCEA tuning. Hope this helps :)
Oh my God thank you so much I was about to look this up
oh my god thank you-
the strum for the bridge is D D U U D U
Thanks!
Thank you!
to whoever needs to hear this: whatever you are struggling with, sexuality, race, school, all around depression, love, hate. whatever it is you will get through it. we all will. i have many things I am dealing with rn. many of which I am not ready to get off my chest yet but. in the end, it will be ok. in the end we will all be ok. we can make it through this. you are NOT ALONE. there are countless people on the internet just like you. and we will make it through this together. if you ever need a shoulder to lean on, I'm here for you mate. if nobody else cares, I still do. if you're ever feeling down it helps to talk to someone. feel free to open up. you're safe here. no matter what you tell yourself, you are loved. you are cared for. and there are so many people in you're life who would have to see you go. if you're dealing with thoughts of suicide, I would recommend talking to a doctor. if you're dealing with you're sexual orientation, its cool mate! you be you! there are so many crazy things going on right now. I am actually super lucky. but I understand that so many others have lost their jobs. they no longer have a support network. so much has gone wrong in so little time. i can help you through this- no, not I. we, WE can help you through this. we are all looking out for each other.
stay safe! :)
You too!!! :)
Fuck this made me cry. I’m 12 and struggling with my gender, sexuality and mental health and this comment section is amazing. Thank you. I hope your doing well
tw; mentions of suicide "and there are people in your life who would have to see you go." that hit something. i tried to kill myself a few weeks ago and went through so much with my mom and pysch wards and stabilization units, everything felt like it was falling apart, everything felt so empty. I didn't realize how many people wouldbe had to see me go or hear I died from suicide. that comment makes me feel happy that the attempt failed. thank you. I will keep going and going to make people happy and proud of who I am, I still feel so empty and numb completely but I know there's a purpose. a reason I'm here.
Thanks bro
Bruh I love this community so much! Thank you, this is amazing. Drink water and wear your seatbelt! ^-^
this man has really got talent, after all these years of listening to this song it’ll always be one of my favorites. It never gets boring. And not just this song most of his songs are really just so amazing that I never get bored of, you’re so talented it makes me wanna cry.
I was so confused when everybody was saying the song from tiktok was cut my hair”... I was just like no?? It’s by cave town
I think it’s disrespectful, completely missing the artist of a song you admire when they didn’t do anything wrong isn’t nice
there was a remix made my someone else that they called “cut my hair”
Yeah, mounika
Blastix Art ikr
@Blastix Art
It doesn't, it makes the artist popular.
Oh, don't just jump into a conclusion.
I do not like tiktok.
I don’t want to get emotional but this song has helped me through hell. Suffering from extreme depression is extremely hard and when I felt hopeless I would play this song I just feel like I need to thank Robin for helping me through really tough times.
Don't let what people say about you get to you, They just say those things to make you feel worse it doesn't actually reflect your personality, don't let things that aren't true get to you.
Same. It's been rough for me because I'm gender fluid in a Christian family that are really transphobic. everyone misgenders me and calls me she/her when I'm they/them and everyone calls me by my dead name. But just listening to this song makes me feel so much better
@@bumblebreetookurmom when it comes down to it don’t pay any attention to them. No matter what anyone says you are always full of potential and a bright future even if it feels like the world is against you remember the ones that are there for you and the friends that never left you. But on top of that when life gets dark take a moment to look back at your faults and learn from them, then take another moment to look at what you’ve done good even if it was something as small as holding the door for someone you can always be the light to someone else especially when they need it the most. And as for your family I live in a Christian home as well and I want you to know no matter what is said there is nothing wrong with you, God doesn’t hate you and your not committing a sin. The Bible teaches to love one another no matter what and I feel that’s somethings that been forgotten.
I've been so overwhelmed and this song has guided me for the past month
This is my first time hearing this song and I'm crying so hard???
Edit almost 5 years later:
Damn I really thought I was cis back then lmao. I came out recently, after moving to a new country. It feels so free and so right and I’m truly happy for the first time in my life.
To all the closeted kids out there, I promise it does get better.
Twenty Paphonies yea same
woah what
I also had to cry the first time listening to it, it is just to beautiful♥
Twenty one paphonies ITS ME AGAIN! I I see you every where! but first time on dis wonderful humans channel!
Twenty Paphonies ikr
This song has kept me sane the past couple years. Gives me memories From a lover that’s now dancing in the sky..so thank you for that.
hey:)
i really hope you’re fine and i wanna let you know, that you are not alone here!
i’ve been watching and listening to this for past 3-4(?) year going through many different life periods. i truly believe this song and many others of him will help us like they did
