This just further cements the fact that Brian David Gilbert is the ultimate human specimen, the perfect lifeform. No ordinary man could be this amazing at everything.
Hm, I'd place him at a tie with Louie Zong. But considering they've done not one (1) but two (2) collaborations we can see that together they are Ultimate Human
I don’t know why but Brain and Jonahs music gives me a type of feeling where I remember that the life I live is small and, realistically, unimportant to most of the world. But instead of going through a panic attack I just feel calm and like every moment spent listening to their music is worth living through everything else in life.
I don't mind knowing in the grand scheme of things Im not significant. I only care about being significant to the people I love and care about. I don't need the weight of the world on me to feel needed.
@@taakotuesdays I made the mistake of glancing at the comments of the first one. No spoilers, but I saw a few people comment that when rewatching the series, they were already crying. So I was very much so looking forward to the rest of it, and I have indeed rewatched it and cried [again] as well as played See the Day many many times.
Listen I can obsess over BDG like the rest of the comments but holy hell is Jonah fantastic too! I don't know him outside of his music, but the talent is incredible - guitar with a cymbal on the side, piano in "maybe tomorrow", and backup vocals always on point. Would love to see more from you and Sierra, as well as Brian if he's not too busy nowadays with Polygon.
Ok, so um.... don't know why I commented this. At all. I thought I was smarter than that--- WAIT I THINK I KNOW WHY Ok just confirmed!! It's cause Follow Through is a song on their new album. I saw it a month ago from their tweet listing the names of the songs. I wonder if it's out yet? Not on Spotify yet, it seems! Probably soon. So in conclusion, maybe I meant the future whenever the album is on Spotify. Or maybe I was dumb? Unclear
"A bit crabby I may well be" "Shined off the bay" they were there... The signs were always there. They were there and we didn't listen. WE should've SEEN it COMING! THE GOSPEL Of McCormick! PUT IT ON EVERYTHING!!!
I feel like the 4 dislikes that i'm seeing on the day im making this reply are just people who had some kind of bad memory of a relationship appear while listening to this and out of saltiness, they took it out on the video.
I came to the Altogether from the sideways Polygon angle I suspect is the usual these days, but. As a musician and a completist content-spiraler who uses music to control mood as compulsively as I think anybody has ever successfully used drugs, I'm all in. I did the bandcamp complete-works download and went through it on repeat for a few days and then got stuck on individual songs and evangelized them to the friends I still have who will accept bar-by-bar commentary on the progression and the evolution of timbre over the verses compared according to range and dynamic and the way that the rarity of sudden rhythmic unison on a triplet ornament makes it even more heartfeltly effective and the fact that they save the extremely satisfying rising arpeggiation for the last iteration of the chorus. I like to know WHY I like the things I like, and man I really like these things, and there's a lot to figure out here, and Jonah and BDG have done the work that it's a gift to open and look into, so. It is a whole well-cast, sweetly disguised structure, planned and multitasked, that underpins the extremely obvious wizardry of charisma, that allows someone to look into a camera with an assured and hopeful smile and tell me directly that he'll make me happy. And it works, and suddenly I am. Thanks, guys.
I keep coming back to this song, I think it’s truly my favorite of yours. Shame that it’s not on spotify... But until it is, I’ll continue to listen here on youtube.
It's so nice that they put the cymbal exactly where we're supposed to see the chords really helps me out figuring out the chords. This is a cry for help..
yo think I figured them out! or at least got kinda close intro: A C#m D Dm A Bm/C#m D Dm A C#m Spent the first couple days Em D Dm Meeting resistance before I met your gaze Am D Bm The silver glint of steel and flint E Sparked from your eyes.

the one dislike is _that_ pair of jorts, _you know the one_
the pair has friends now, it would seem.
oh god
The jorts are multiplying
FRAWGS?!!
@Rebecca Mason Oh god he's back
I can’t tell which is better: Brian’s comedy or Brian’s music
TheTwistedToast yes
the answer is Both
Brian
LMaM is the best of both worlds
and scott
Respect to the guy on the right playing drums , humming and strumming chords all at once
CopyKuch3n that's Jonah Scott! He's incredibly talented
he's singing harmony, not humming
hey no offense but this is the only video on youtube
What?
What
You’re not wrong but may I add- Sophie
@@anachronisticatlas Who now prkd loled lmao YES YOU CAN. *death gaze*

Aaron Hossain I was fully going to like this comment until I noticed that it had 69 likes, I’m sorry but I am legally unable
I disagree. I’d argue that Neil Cicierega stands side by side or possibly even higher than Brian. Brian is definitely above everyone else though
my first thought when i saw this comment was also neil cicierega. neil and brian are gods.
Hm, I'd place him at a tie with Louie Zong. But considering they've done not one (1) but two (2) collaborations we can see that together they are Ultimate Human
The three of them are a completely different species from the rest of us puny mortals
I feel like Scott doesn’t get enough appreciation, so if just like to say your skills are incredible Scott!!!!
his name is Jonah haha, Scott is his last name
ok I know this was posted 4 years ago but pLEASE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY THIS SONG IS MY LIFE ACK
WOOOOOOOOOOOOO BABY WE MADE IT
It’s also on Spotify, they re-recorded it for their new album “Silo”
Good news from like a year ago
I don’t know if I want to sing this to someone or have this sung to me
Preferably both at each other in duet
I don’t know why but Brain and Jonahs music gives me a type of feeling where I remember that the life I live is small and, realistically, unimportant to most of the world.

I know we’re all on that loving bdg train, as we should be, but shoutout to Jonah for being very handsome and incredibly talented
I would like to officially deem that BDG is cute
Omg BDG sings like an angel, consider my wig snatched
You just realized that???
Yeah uh, not the first to deem that. He fokin cuute
Yes.
Finally official! We can now commemorate.
Why is he so beautiful and talented, man’s killing the music-comedy-entertainment game
Cause god really be out here pickin favorites
I like the pun created by your name and profile pic, very niche but I like it
I thought you were supposed to only be incredibly talented at one thing wtf man
The "hon" is among the most marylandish things you could say.
How a man who makes me laugh so much is making me cry with this?

@@dragonflies6793 see the day makes me emotional whenever I hear it
This song is beautiful but I got a bit distracted by Brian's tiny guitar
_Everyone_ gets distracted by Brian's "tiny guitar", it's natural. I mean, that's one fine instrument.

I love your profile picture
1:53 Just so I can hear that on REPEAT
EDIT: 3:15 Too oh my god
here you can see twink and twunk
The altogether comes in two forms: twink and twunk
hey, i think about this comment every day, thanks for changing my life
i love both of them
Twink implies he is bottom and I believe that would undermine hus powerlevel.
how dare you, Jonah is a full on hunk
you guys are on repeat in our office. everyone loves it!

Who dared to bring a dislike down upon this video
Jesus I like this song so much. BDG's voice is the icing on it, ofc
uGH CAN WE PLEASE GET THIS ON SPOTIFY.
I've got news for you from the future :D
@@elh7149 it's not on spotify
@Julia Goldstein you can save 15% or more on care insurance with geico

Beth Hays The spotify upload for this song, I guess, will just.....follow through hehe~~
"A bit crabby I may well be"
"Shined off the bay"
they were there...
The signs were always there.
They were there and we didn't listen.
WE should've SEEN it COMING!
THE GOSPEL Of McCormick!
PUT IT ON EVERYTHING!!!
It's not like I'm crying
But I'm crying
It's just great seeing you two have fun with what you're doing that's all
I ain't saying i need a studio recording of this, but i DO
This is.
Good news
There are so many proofs Brian is a literal angel, and his voice is certainly one of them
Okay, but why am I 7 years late to this song? It made my day. ❤
U gh,,,,,,,,,I love soft music,,,so much, and you guys do it so well. I felt my soul leave my body every time Brian hit a high note. Glorious.
I got into BDG and the Altogether separately and somehow never recognized his voice
Wow, this song is absolutely beautiful! The guitar and ukulele are played perfectly and Brian's vocals are wonderful!
that little "yeah?" at the end i'm GONE
Those sweet harmonies tho
I'm so freaking excited that' your back I cannot express
We don’t deserve these two beautiful boys I can’t-
You guys are too cute for me to even register the song. Guess I need to watch again.
Awww, so happy to have just discovered this song. What an absolute delight on this rainy afternoon.
Omg BDG sings like an angel, consider my wig snatched
They give the vibes, like they're performers at a foreign restaurant. And you don't know them, but they're so chill you just feel like you're friends
Im so glad this has 0 dislikes
I'm impressed. And I just added the 464th like!
I feel like the 4 dislikes that i'm seeing on the day im making this reply are just people who had some kind of bad memory of a relationship appear while listening to this and out of saltiness, they took it out on the video.
I'm a straight dude who hates love songs, but this makes my heart melt.
I second all the requests to put this on Spotify or Bandcamp please IT'S SO GOOD
nearly 5 years later, and we gettin a studio version of this on an LP hell yeah

This is the perfect music to wake up hopeful too, not to intense for the morning but always makes me smile
I hope this guy finds a good life and a good partner. Love Gilbert
He's dating Karen Han from Polygon, they have united their awesomeness powers and will soon take over the world
I keep coming back to this song, I think it’s truly my favorite of yours. Shame that it’s not on spotify... But until it is, I’ll continue to listen here on youtube.
this is one of the most wholesome song I ever heard. Thought it the first time I heard it and still doing💙
Just finished listening to Hawaii part II and this is a good palette cleanser
Boy, I would buy ten times your album.
It's so nice that they put the cymbal exactly where we're supposed to see the chords really helps me out figuring out the chords.
This is a cry for help..
This song is so beautiful that it makes me sad instead of happy. Because literally how could my relationship ever reach these heights...?
Wait why is this so good???? They’re both so good???? I love this????
MY. HEART. IS. MELTING.
pls send halp
I swear brian has the most beautiful male voice in the world
I love the Veil Nebula in the background 💜
