Since Porter wrote this in dedication to his girlfriend Rika... I wondered why he named the song "blossom" specifically. Turns out "Rika" means "pear blossom" in Japanese. God, this makes me love it even more. The first few seconds that I heard this song I KNEW this was something special. Something only someone so deeply in love can create. Hats off, Porter.
"If i can stop time and Build a world where God cannot take us" Damn Porter, that's got me in the feeling. Thanks for the joy you brought to us. We love you
@@yerboibread4978 I will get "red-string-crazy" now, but i feel like Goodbye to a World is about the moment you lose something and you feel like the world is crumbling, and this feels more like acceptance of the loss.
Don't remember the last time a song reduced me to an utter mess of tears like this... there's just something about the atmosphere he creates here that cuts straight through to your deepest, most emotionally bare memories. Whenever it ends I just sit there, reflecting on my life and my choices, sad but also hopeful. That's the power of one great song
My dad passed away when I was a kid, but I’ve not listened to anything that captures how I feel when I look back and reminisce on the good memories I had with him before he died as much as this song does. Thank you, porter.
"So at last goodbye" "I'll be happy" "just to have known you" "and we wished each other well" God... This hit me harder than I thought... Thank you, Porter.
From Spitfire, worlds, virtual self, and this. The amount of cynicism faced in the past. I'm so happy Porter has found someone as loving and supporting as Rika and I hope this happiness never fades. They deserve the whole damn Sekai. You hear me? The universe
To think I lost the love of my life to a drunk driver a couple of months before this came out. I cried so hard when i heard this. It's already been 7 months and every day is a struggle. she's constantly on my mind. nothing can prepare you for it. i'm living in a genuine nightmare. i just wish she could've heard this. we really started falling in love by the time we went to our first Porter show together. she was so fucking beautiful everyone. the universe gave me a few short, happy years with her, it gave me this song to help ease the pain of losing her, to help remember the many, many amazing times we had together. I hope anyone reading this is out there surviving. If i can so can you. it's all i can do, i promised her i would. Fuck, i hope i don't let her down.
My kitten sadly passed away just hours ago. It still hurts so bad. This is my song to you, little buddy. You were only on this earth for a little while but you were surrounded in love and affection. Rest in peace.
@@ShignBright much better now! i think of the kitten every time i come back to this song and it still stings but i still have an older cat (the kitten's mother) and a dog who are both doing very well :)
its been 2 years scene this been posted on youtube and i'm not just finding this now and it hits so hard at home. You can just feel the emotion that was put into this song and it fr puts me into tears just hearing it
The transition to his raw, unfiltered voice when he says "It's just that I love you" really captures his genuine emotion. 'Evoking the feeling that there isn't any sugarcoating to be implied. It's so powerful in the way that he's used it.
This song reminds me so much of how I feel about my boyfriend. I love him more than anything, never before have I laid my eyes on anyone or anything I have felt so much love for. I can’t begin to imagine a world where we hadn’t met. He has made me regain my sparkle, I feel myself for the first time ever. I can’t remember a time before I met him where I hadn’t felt the need to hide myself, pretending to be someone I wasn’t. I have learned who I am, and I just hope that he feels the same. The idea of losing him is on my mind constantly, I can’t even fathom the idea of it. I just wish we could hold on to each other forever. I do recognize that our time is limited though, and I choose to make the best of it while I still can. I hope the both of us can share many wonderful memories together. Thank you Markus, you make my life beautiful.
This is going to sound weird because this is a romantic song, but I work in memory care and this song makes me think about the people I take care of. Some of them have been the most amazing people you could ever hope to meet, and I feel so so honored that I was able to meet them, and be with them, and love them during the ends of their lives. The relationships you form working in this kind of care are like family. And this song just made me think of all the people I’ve cared for who I’ve loved so so much that I wish I could’ve had a little more time with, even though I know it was their time to pass and they were ready. Idk, maybe this is weird to share. But if anyone ever worries if their loved ones in care homes are being truly cared for, know that I genuinely love every single person I care for like family.
This isn't weird at all! This song is about love and AFFECTION. You can prove affection towards everyone. Plus, love isn't only romantic: you can love your family, your relatives, your dog, your friends, your coworkers/classmates, a special place, nature, the universe.. and so on.
As someone else has said, this is a love song. Love has so many different forms, and all of them could be represented by these lyrics. It may have been inspired by romantic love, but it speaks to something much broader, and this is what makes it beautiful.
A few hours ago, a friend of mine took her own life. This song has helped me cope with that loss, and I love how Porter’s songs have touched my heart so deeply. Thank you, Porter, for creating this beautiful album and this incredible song.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost a friend last year - he was the biggest Porter fan so now I’m listening back through Porter’s music and becoming a fan myself. This song hits hard. 💔 it’s difficult losing a friend 🙏
“But then you said: ‘Don't think of the time that's left. You're spending it in your head, I just want you laughing’ I'm sorry for crying, I just want you happy” I don’t know why, but I burst into tears while listening to this line. There is just so much beauty in it. It was the one thing I’ve been needing to hear for a while now 🥲😭
The fact that he says the "it's just that I love you" part with his real voice and not his "virtualself" (pun intended) makes this song even better and more special.
I lost my previous partner to a car collision on my campus only a few months ago. This song hit so hard and I have been listening to this ever since that has happened. I find comfort in this song. I miss her. SO god damn much. thank you porter. We all love you.
Lyrics : I close my eyes, for once I don't have to try I'm well-wishing for a life I picture you happy, oh In the weeds we walked, your hand running through the moss I was so lost in thought, but you were there living You've taken me with you Can I slow the days? I'll wish that I'll find the faith I'll die and I'll save your place, and you'll never suffer and we'll stay together Oh it's not alright that one day we're all out of time I'll write another life, I'm sorry for crying it's just that I love you And 'one day' can't be far enough had lost my sight I So you sang to me the beauty you'd been seeing if I can't stop time I'll build a world where God cannot take us There's no need to think of time But then you said "Don't think of the time that's left, you're spending it in your head, I just want you laughing I'm sorry for crying, I just want you happy" So at last goodbye I'll be happy just have to known you and we wished each other well
listening to this song after me and my boyfriend confessed our undying love to each other while this was playing at Second Sky the other night, now I can’t listen to this ever again without sobbing
This song makes me wanna lay in a grassy field while cloud watching, simply enjoying life in its simplest form. Kinda sad how i couldn't do such a thing because i live in a city and theres a pandemic.
I have texture things and don't like touching grass without something between me and it, but man this song makes me want to do that without anything between me and the grass.
Dear Porter, I'm currently going trough a really tough and sudden breakup. I hit rock bottom, my whole world crumbled, I just couldn't imagine my life without my partner. It was maybe the biggest pain I have ever felt in my life. I felt betrayed, I felt resentment, I judged them but the longing for them was stronger. As a musician, I even tried to make a song about it. But after I listened to Blossom, randomly appearing in my liked songs playlist, tears started flowing out off my eyes, remembering all the beautiful experiences that we had, the warmth that enveloped us, the happiness I was feeling, just because my sweetheart was genuinely happy. I realised that rather than being bitter and lamenting on these memories in the past, it's better to look at them with a smile, being happy just to have known them. It reminded me that although we parted our ways, deeply, in our hearts, we are wishing each other well. Thank you, Porter, for making me realise this and making me let them go with love.
I haven't commented on anything in years, but holy crap, this is one of the most authentic and genuine expressions of love I've ever heard. I saw him live yesterday and his set was incredible.
My mom passed away a few months ago, since then my life became almost impossible to live, but this songs makes me feel like she’s talking to me, thank you Porter for making me feel closer to her when she’s no longer here
I... don't know what to say... listening to this song for the first time and it got me tearing up. this song reminds me so much of my boyfriend. he always feels down and he said that i changed his life, making him happier and... we're separated by distance so i can't be there for him physically. sometimes when i read his messages i feel horrible that i cannot be there for him. sorry for... venting a bit but yea. thank you porter for making this music and this album. we definitely need something that comfort ourselves and you delivered with songs that warms our heart. keep up the good work porter
This is Nurture’s shining moment in terms of lyrics. Everything is so poetic, vivid, and delivered in a quiet yet passionate manner. Easily one of the best songs here despite its simplicity, although Musician and Unfold are in the same tier.
Since Nurture has came out, I have been listening to all of the songs for the better part of ten months. Every song is amazing but blossom still stands out to me the most. I have been single for over five years, now at the seven year mark. ( Have never fallen in love) Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed the single life for these years, but I eventually do want to meet the Woman of my dreams one day. For so long, I always figured I wasn't anyone's type, thinking I had to have a strong social status to attract someone, or having to not be myself to gain someone's appeal; Not that I've done that because I love who I am. This songs message is beautiful and it encapsulates true love at it's finest. Two people who love each other for who they are, and they just want to see each other smiling, and laughing. This song gives me hope that I can experience that feeling. Thank you Porter for such an incredible song and an incredible album.
I am crying; I said I'll send this only to the girl I love. I did. Now she sent me a cover of this song and I'm so happy. This is enough happiness to save me from depression.
This song to me represents everything I can’t have , everything I long for and everything I will lose. It represents a life time with the one I love , and that loss of a life time with someone I love because of circumstance and perhaps their feelings. This song is so beautiful , never fails to make me bawl my eyes out
It can't be coincidence that this song is released the day I realized I have to let her go. Thank you Porter Robinson for this beautiful, beautiful song. My heart feels a little more full.
Man, I really needed a song to fuck me up emotionally like this. I've let tears I haven't let in a long time. Thank you. I feel like I reduced some bottled up stress.
Can we just cherish that "i love you" moment in 1:52 that Porter pitch his voice back to normal to sing his heart out >< I CAN'T TAKE THIS MUCH LOVE IN A SONG
In Spain, especially Catalonia, today the boys give roses to the girls and they to the boys. Today I gave a rose to my girlfriend while we were eating on the lawn. She also likes Porter Robinson so I played this song while we were looking at the clouds on a sunny day like today. I hope that one day you will find the person who makes you happy with just a pretty rose or an interesting book ^^
I cant describe what lyrics made me cry but just know this is one of those special songs where a single tear falls from your eye. No sobbing, just a solemn sadness yet bittersweet feeling.
I think this song has finally put death into perspective for me. Ive genuinely wanted to die since I was about 7, people I care about have never stayed in my life, I'm bad with empathy, and the religion i grew up with liked to view death as a good thing. because of all that I've never really understood it, I always viewed it as the end of suffering rather than the end of life, that when I was to die I'd finally be happy, that whenever anybody i cared about died that they were happy, that heaven was treating them right or that they were getting what they deserved in hell. but after listening to this song i realize death isn't the end of the bad, its the end of everything, you cant hug your pets, you cant enjoy a good drink, you cant smile at a stranger, and now after thinking about all this i feel sick I've never viewed death as a bad thing but now after realizing what its really like I'm scared and i don't know what to do. i am sure in a bit ill feel okay but for now, i don't feel my best
You have no idea how helpful, cathartic and viscerally healing this song is for me right now. I've been through so, so much recently and this song has evoked exactly what I need to feel and release. I love it and am so grateful you could create something new that you're happy with. We can all pick up on it. Thank you, Porter.
Today was my aunt's funeral , even tho we weren't that closed because of family stuff. I felted so heartbroken when I got the news. I blame my self that I didn't spend more time with her, but I won't torture my self in those thoughts, there's no point in it , what Im sure is that won't distance my self again from my family. We will miss you aunty Annette today, tomorrow and forever
Always gets me crying, reminds me of my beautiful dog who passed away ❤ such kind souls that dogs are, and all pets are to us. They are angels on earth
As someone who grew up in a religious household, the lines "If I can't stop time I'll build a world where God cannot take us" hit me incredibly hard each and every time.
A group of close friends, myself, and my girlfriend were staying in an airbnb for my buddy's wedding. It was 4am and I couldn't sleep, walked outside to the beautiful California weather (east coast born and raised) and threw on Porter's Nurture which had just come out. Enjoying that cali weed, experiencing a beautiful rising sun, and it peaking with hearing Blossom was a tear-bringing experience. Line that hurts so good is: "So at last, goodbye I’ll be happy just to have known you and we wished each other well"
you are just teaching me how to love. i can't understand how did you make it to not cry during the recording because just in the middle of the lyrics i just start crying. i wonder how much takes you had to do to make this perfect. thank you porter, from the bottom of my heart. im grateful and happy to be here and living in the same reality and world you live too.
you saved my life, when no one ever understands my mind, your music healed me again, again and again. I cannot be sure how far i can go without your sweet songs.
this is very easily the most beautiful love song I have heard so far in my life, and quite likely the most touching one I ever will hear. Porter, I know I don't gotta tell you how lucky you are to touch something so special, and then be able to pull it out of yourself and share it like this. I hope I'll make something like this before I die; even if only once
This…although intended as a love song…It just reminds me of my friends. “I picture you happy.” “I was so lost in thought, but you were there living.” “You’ve taken me with you.” It speaks such loud volumes in my heart. At the same time, it’s my friends who caused me to develop a love, not a romantic one, but a caring, considerate, thoughtful love that’s meant for everyone I meet. 💛
The way you switched into your natural voice to say “it’s just that I love you” broke me
so lovely
every. single. time. I'm fighting back tears the whole song and then when he switches to his natural voice I start bawling.
@@TheZigglez SAMEE
The whole time I was like "nope, nope don't cry." And then he did that and i couldn't hold it in anymore
I cried, when I thought I would 😅😅😭
I KNOW RIGHT ITS SO SWEET AND SOFT IT MAKES ME *MELT*
Since Porter wrote this in dedication to his girlfriend Rika... I wondered why he named the song "blossom" specifically. Turns out "Rika" means "pear blossom" in Japanese. God, this makes me love it even more. The first few seconds that I heard this song I KNEW this was something special. Something only someone so deeply in love can create. Hats off, Porter.
Omg thats so beautiful😭😭😭❤❤
man stop making me cry 😭
Porter, the man.
I can feel the love he put in the song ^^ It is far more than normal beautiful. I can't even find a word to describe it ;-;
Türk müsünüz acaba 🥺. Porter' ın hiç Türk fanını görmemiştim o yüzden sormak istedim..
if life has end credits; this would be the song to it
You are 100% right about life's ending credits. Let them roll 😢
Strange... my end credits is I'm Sippin Tea in Yo Hood - XXXTentacion
"play this in my funeral" but on better context
with like a fuzzy vhs filter
People will play it at their funerals
"If i can stop time and Build a world where God cannot take us"
Damn Porter, that's got me in the feeling.
Thanks for the joy you brought to us.
We love you
That's why you should try to spend more time with people you love. Because one day you will lose them.
i heard that and legit went GOODBYE TO A WORLD 2?
@@yerboibread4978 I will get "red-string-crazy" now, but i feel like Goodbye to a World is about the moment you lose something and you feel like the world is crumbling, and this feels more like acceptance of the loss.
@@Onislogo yeah, i definetly get that, it was like 1 am when i wrote that comment lmao
Only our body dies. The intelligent energy within (soul) is eternal! 🙏
If you listen carefully you can hear me sobbing in the background
not one but two
Don't we all?
Me too
Add me in the list TuT
I too sob with you
I love how you can clearly hear Porter's unmodified singing voice at the "it's just that i love you" part 🤧✨
Yeah, that hits 100% different in the best way
Signifying his authentic love for Rika. No need for enhancement to express your true feelings.
Don't remember the last time a song reduced me to an utter mess of tears like this... there's just something about the atmosphere he creates here that cuts straight through to your deepest, most emotionally bare memories.

1:53 Porter turns off the vocal effects to tell his girlfriend "... I love you..."

I just cried
Aww..
I had the same feeling too 🥺🥺 my dad passed last year in January
Same 😭 im crying right now

God... This hit me harder than I thought... Thank you, Porter.
me and my ex girlfriend just broke up, this song makes me wanna cry a lot ☹️
i cry every time here
I cried a little because I think of the people I lost but I think of my dad since we were close :(
@@deleting-e9p Yeah that was my bad, but I did copy it from the lyrics in the Description of the video. Haha.
how the heck is every song on this album god tier
The only reasonable explanation is that porter is god tier
EXACTLY

Take care my friend. Experiencing the same thing. you are cared about.
Sorry for your loss
My kitten sadly passed away just hours ago. It still hurts so bad. This is my song to you, little buddy. You were only on this earth for a little while but you were surrounded in love and affection. Rest in peace.
How are you doing now? A loss is something so hard to deal with. This hits me hard as I have three kittens of my own.

So sorry for your loss! Hope you're doing fine now
its been 2 years scene this been posted on youtube and i'm not just finding this now and it hits so hard at home. You can just feel the emotion that was put into this song and it fr puts me into tears just hearing it
This hits different when you think of the person who means the world to you while listening to the song...was not ready
sucks when that person has given up on trying to know you
i am just vibing with my dog to this rn
update: this is officially the best song for when you're petting your dog
i just sat on the floor with my dog and listened to this whole album so i whole heartedly understand this haha
Thought about my late dog while listening to this
omg wth lol I was with my dog too! she looks so calm n peaceful with this song
*I'm not crying you're crying*
Ok let's be honest, we're all crying. THIS IS SO AMAZINGLY GOOD 😭😭😭
I don't cry at this song but in mother i did (First song in my life) does that count?
@@firebear1007 sure, why not? Might be the best song on the whole album haha

This hits home too much it might make you melt for the whole day.
I am sad and I noticed my apple music filled the rest of the album so I listened… tears may have been spilled at this song
Not? This was my album in my lowest moments of life. I say it was the therapy sessionsm I needed.
A few hours ago, a friend of mine took her own life. This song has helped me cope with that loss, and I love how Porter’s songs have touched my heart so deeply. Thank you, Porter, for creating this beautiful album and this incredible song.
Seas of voices
You need to hear it
I hope you’re doing better now 🫶

This definitely broke me.
Today Porter Robinson will make history again and I am sure this album will be a masterpiece.

yeah, this is the best love song ever written. change my mind.
Lyrics :
I close my eyes,
for once I don't have to try
I'm well-wishing for a life
I picture you happy, oh
In the weeds we walked,
your hand running through the moss
I was so lost in thought,
but you were there living
You've taken me with you
Can I slow the days?
I'll wish that I'll find the faith
I'll die and I'll save your place,
and you'll never suffer
and we'll stay together
Oh it's not alright
that one day we're all out of time
I'll write another life,
I'm sorry for crying
it's just that I love you
And 'one day' can't be far enough
had lost my sight I
So you sang to me the beauty you'd been seeing
if I can't stop time
I'll build a world where God cannot take us There's no need to think of time
But then you said
"Don't think of the time that's left,
you're spending it in your head,
I just want you laughing
I'm sorry for crying,
I just want you happy"
So at last goodbye
I'll be happy
just have to known you
and we wished each other well
Thank u

Dear Porter,
I'm currently going trough a really tough and sudden breakup. I hit rock bottom, my whole world crumbled, I just couldn't imagine my life without my partner. It was maybe the biggest pain I have ever felt in my life. I felt betrayed, I felt resentment, I judged them but the longing for them was stronger. As a musician, I even tried to make a song about it. But after I listened to Blossom, randomly appearing in my liked songs playlist, tears started flowing out off my eyes, remembering all the beautiful experiences that we had, the warmth that enveloped us, the happiness I was feeling, just because my sweetheart was genuinely happy. I realised that rather than being bitter and lamenting on these memories in the past, it's better to look at them with a smile, being happy just to have known them. It reminded me that although we parted our ways, deeply, in our hearts, we are wishing each other well.
Thank you, Porter, for making me realise this and making me let them go with love.
This is beautiful

It takes a guitar and a solemn voice to immortalize such sentiment
And it's not even a guitar! It's actually a piano pretending to be a guitar, wow!
This is literally one of the most beautiful things I've heard in my life 🥰😭
How I found Porter was accidentally clicking on one of his videos...
*Best accident I’ve ever made!*
I heard Sad Machine at a Spencer's in the mall, the rest was history ❤️
That's a happy little accident of yours!
I discovered Sad Machine & Porter Robinson for the first time in a Roblox game of all things lmfao
happy accidents
"there are no accidents"
- Master Oogway
Accurato.
I accidentally clicked "get your wish" in recommendations and it became my favorite for months...
"I'm sorry for crying
It's just that I love you"
That gave me chills so bad🥺
Here's is the absolute best song from the greatest album of the year/decade
That melodic alignment of "the beauty you'd been seeing" and the "what's real or imagined" from Musician is *chef's kiss*
My mom passed away a few months ago, since then my life became almost impossible to live, but this songs makes me feel like she’s talking to me, thank you Porter for making me feel closer to her when she’s no longer here
i dont know if its proper, but only a words i could send to you. hope things will be better for you.
I... don't know what to say... listening to this song for the first time and it got me tearing up. this song reminds me so much of my boyfriend. he always feels down and he said that i changed his life, making him happier and... we're separated by distance so i can't be there for him physically. sometimes when i read his messages i feel horrible that i cannot be there for him. sorry for... venting a bit but yea. thank you porter for making this music and this album. we definitely need something that comfort ourselves and you delivered with songs that warms our heart. keep up the good work porter
Your comment make me cry more harder. I know how hurt it is. 💔
The definition of inner peace
Man two songs one day before album release
Porter is a blessing in our lives 🙏🏻
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the album is out, in my country its not 23, lets enjoy this
this wasn't technically released as a single, everything from unfold and before were released beforehand
1:52 The moment he said "I love you" his voice changes to his normal voice. That's quite an emotional little detail.
This is Nurture’s shining moment in terms of lyrics. Everything is so poetic, vivid, and delivered in a quiet yet passionate manner. Easily one of the best songs here despite its simplicity, although Musician and Unfold are in the same tier.
the "it's just that I love you" with his real voice is so sweet!!
Since Nurture has came out, I have been listening to all of the songs for the better part of ten months. Every song is amazing but blossom still stands out to me the most.
I have been single for over five years, now at the seven year mark. ( Have never fallen in love) Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed the single life for these years, but I eventually do want to meet the Woman of my dreams one day. For so long, I always figured I wasn't anyone's type, thinking I had to have a strong social status to attract someone, or having to not be myself to gain someone's appeal; Not that I've done that because I love who I am. This songs message is beautiful and it encapsulates true love at it's finest. Two people who love each other for who they are, and they just want to see each other smiling, and laughing.
This song gives me hope that I can experience that feeling. Thank you Porter for such an incredible song and an incredible album.
Porter if you dont stop making me happy i might just die from smiling to much
I am crying; I said I'll send this only to the girl I love. I did. Now she sent me a cover of this song and I'm so happy. This is enough happiness to save me from depression.
This ballad is so sweet that i can't handle it. As soon as the first line is sang, my eyes bowl. You're a beautiful soul, Porter. Rika is fortunate.
This sounds like a really snowy place and the snow is falling real slow
This song to me represents everything I can’t have , everything I long for and everything I will lose. It represents a life time with the one I love , and that loss of a life time with someone I love because of circumstance and perhaps their feelings. This song is so beautiful , never fails to make me bawl my eyes out
I'm so glad Porter found love whether it be for himself or for Rika
This is the most adorable song of 2021, period.
Playing this one in celebration, congratulations Porter and Rika!
It can't be coincidence that this song is released the day I realized I have to let her go. Thank you Porter Robinson for this beautiful, beautiful song. My heart feels a little more full.
Man, I really needed a song to fuck me up emotionally like this. I've let tears I haven't let in a long time. Thank you.
I feel like I reduced some bottled up stress.
Can we just cherish that "i love you" moment in 1:52 that Porter pitch his voice back to normal to sing his heart out >< I CAN'T TAKE THIS MUCH LOVE IN A SONG
beautiful. id love to pass my time listening to this laying by a green hill seeing some clouds
In Spain, especially Catalonia, today the boys give roses to the girls and they to the boys. Today I gave a rose to my girlfriend while we were eating on the lawn. She also likes Porter Robinson so I played this song while we were looking at the clouds on a sunny day like today. I hope that one day you will find the person who makes you happy with just a pretty rose or an interesting book ^^
That sounds so sweet 😭❤️
Would be nice to live in a place with a culture
it's real sant jordi hours XD
This album. THIS ALBUM. It just feels so inspired, I can tell there are such real emotions behind all these songs, so so good.
Peaceful, calming, and everything in-between.
And now they’re engaged 🥺💕❤️😭🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
This brings me peace.
I cant describe what lyrics made me cry but just know this is one of those special songs where a single tear falls from your eye. No sobbing, just a solemn sadness yet bittersweet feeling.
I think this song has finally put death into perspective for me.
Ive genuinely wanted to die since I was about 7, people I care about have never stayed in my life, I'm bad with empathy, and the religion i grew up with liked to view death as a good thing.
because of all that I've never really understood it, I always viewed it as the end of suffering rather than the end of life, that when I was to die I'd finally be happy, that whenever anybody i cared about died that they were happy, that heaven was treating them right or that they were getting what they deserved in hell. but after listening to this song i realize death isn't the end of the bad, its the end of everything, you cant hug your pets, you cant enjoy a good drink, you cant smile at a stranger, and now after thinking about all this i feel sick
I've never viewed death as a bad thing but now after realizing what its really like I'm scared and i don't know what to do. i am sure in a bit ill feel okay but for now, i don't feel my best
If you live in the US, you can call 988 for suicide prevention help. Life is worth living brother (or sister).
You have no idea how helpful, cathartic and viscerally healing this song is for me right now. I've been through so, so much recently and this song has evoked exactly what I need to feel and release. I love it and am so grateful you could create something new that you're happy with. We can all pick up on it. Thank you, Porter.
i've never cried to a song i've heard for the first time until today
thank you for changing my life, porter
Today was my aunt's funeral , even tho we weren't that closed because of family stuff. I felted so heartbroken when I got the news. I blame my self that I didn't spend more time with her, but I won't torture my self in those thoughts, there's no point in it , what Im sure is that won't distance my self again from my family. We will miss you aunty Annette today, tomorrow and forever
this song hits different now that porter and rika are engaged 💖
“I’ll build a world where god cannot take us” damn this is so beautiful
This song changed my life, it's beautiful, I love this song.
Always gets me crying, reminds me of my beautiful dog who passed away ❤ such kind souls that dogs are, and all pets are to us. They are angels on earth
CONGRATS TO BOTH OF YOU HOLY SHIT I AM CRYING
This is such a beautiful song. It doesn't matter how many times I listen to it, it always reduces me to tears
I really can't deal about how beautiful this is
Congratulations on the engagement Porter and Rika!!!
Porter, Nurture is the best album of 2021 and possibly ever....Thank you.
As someone who grew up in a religious household, the lines
"If I can't stop time
I'll build a world where God cannot take us"
hit me incredibly hard each and every time.
Porter Robison has a really beautiful soul, we all can agree!
A group of close friends, myself, and my girlfriend were staying in an airbnb for my buddy's wedding.
It was 4am and I couldn't sleep, walked outside to the beautiful California weather (east coast born and raised) and threw on Porter's Nurture which had just come out.
Enjoying that cali weed, experiencing a beautiful rising sun, and it peaking with hearing Blossom was a tear-bringing experience.
Line that hurts so good is: "So at last, goodbye I’ll be happy just to have known you and we wished each other well"
One of the best songs Porter's made, period
you are just teaching me how to love. i can't understand how did you make it to not cry during the recording because just in the middle of the lyrics i just start crying. i wonder how much takes you had to do to make this perfect. thank you porter, from the bottom of my heart. im grateful and happy to be here and living in the same reality and world you live too.
That brief key change part never gets old
when
The “It just that I love you” is too beautiful 🥺
The more I listen to this song over and over again, the more I learn about this song's meaning the more I feel like crying.
Porter and his gf really complete each other omg I'm in tears listening to this😥
Listening to Porter always fills me with so many emotions, I've never met or heard any other artist to make me feel this way.
you saved my life, when no one ever understands my mind, your music healed me again, again and again. I cannot be sure how far i can go without your sweet songs.
this is very easily the most beautiful love song I have heard so far in my life, and quite likely the most touching one I ever will hear. Porter, I know I don't gotta tell you how lucky you are to touch something so special, and then be able to pull it out of yourself and share it like this. I hope I'll make something like this before I die; even if only once
This…although intended as a love song…It just reminds me of my friends. “I picture you happy.” “I was so lost in thought, but you were there living.” “You’ve taken me with you.” It speaks such loud volumes in my heart. At the same time, it’s my friends who caused me to develop a love, not a romantic one, but a caring, considerate, thoughtful love that’s meant for everyone I meet. 💛
porter & rika are engaged 💍🤍 YEAAAAAAAAAAH!
