So much love to everyone who sent in hug videos :')
Escaping from a shelter when he was just a puppy, Jackson took refuge in the woods where he made fast friends with the other animals. Being the biggest of the animals in the group, he is a popular candidate for a warm snuggle during the bitter cold nights. He could be considered the Eeyore of the kingdom, going off on his emotional tangents about the insignificance of life and often driving everyone into an existential hole. When he's not napping or being emo, the pup likes to hide away in the bushes where he collects bones, practises spells, and sometimes accidentally summons a demon. The demons don't tend to stay long though; Jackson likes to take the opportunity to add some more bones to his collection.

Lyrics:
What's it like to be alone on a Sunday
remembering the time you saw them just yesterday?
Sing me a song, tell me your thoughts
I could listen to you all night long
And I don't care about my sleeping routine
I fucked it up as it is but we've got so much time to kill
as the night rocks me to sleep.
Remember when we felt like animations
and didn't need A grades for self validation?
Tell me about the things that you love
The world simply needs more affection 'cause
I don't care about what people think of me
I'm fucked up as it is but we've got so much time to kill
and so many things to see
Life's too short to worry about things that we got wrong
So hug all ur friends and let them know you're not letting go
I won't let go, o-oh
Did you and your friends have fun on the weekend
Nothing feels better than sleeping and sleeping in
Watch as my head falls away from the room
I would hug all my friends if they weren't friends with you
You don't know what it's like to be nothing at all
When the night turns cold my thoughts feel like stone
And it's nothing I can't change
But I can't breathe anymore
I forgot how to walk by myself
I could do with a little more of your help
Life's too short to worry about things we got wrong
So hug all ur friends and let them know you're not letting go
I'm not letting go
Life's too short to worry about things we got wrong
So hug all ur friends and let them know you're not letting go
I'm not letting go
So hug all ur friends and let them know you're not letting go
No I won't let go, o-oh

I watched over 1000 hugs to make this video and I have no regrets 💛
I love u taha
Second reply
thank you taha. you're awesome.
Much appreciated sir uwu
thank you 💛
this song honestly makes hugging seem a lot stronger than just a friendly gesture and it makes me cry
**waddle walking**
daddy?
(not a sexual thing it's a vine if you don't get it-
i'm genuinely offended)
@@santa_clause *Do l look like-*
Because it is , for most people including myself I think that people make hugging seem only okay for certain people who are ‘worth it’
It definitely is, I guess it depends on the type hug but to me anyway it always means a lot
@@santa_clause DO I LOOK LIKE-
It’s only me or this song hits different when you really need a hug?
Oow Ok nah it aint just u
on jah
only everyone
Yep it does it's happening to me right now
F u c k im feeling this right now
robin to his friends: *huggles*
me to my friends: *quick ugly awkward uncomfortable dislocated hug*
Hahaha yea i feel ya😢😂😂
Introverted as well 😂
cockroach same lol we had a “group hug” today that turned into a “group pat on the back” because were awkward
Same😂
Same sadly 😅
This is my cat’s favorite song. Every time i play it, she comes strutting into the room purring really hard and begins to beg me for cuddles. Im hugging my furry friend right now, she is sleep-purring on my arm
This comment put a smile on my face so thank you to you and your cat :)
My dogs fav is oh Susannah for some reason so whenever I play it on guitar she comes walking in it’s hilarious
That's adorable! One of my family dogs used to love any songs with high pitched whistle sounds. Meanwhile My little mutt dog loves any calm songs. He'll come and relax on my lap and fall asleep. I should try cavetown with him.
The cat has good taste then
my cat likes this song too :)
no one:
robin: *hugs everyone like its the end of the world*
i mean that’s how i hug
because you never know when it’s the last time you see them
@Nightcore Keep X aw man
It’s so sweet
Thats the best type😫
2 of my different music tastes:
Cavetown: Hug all ur friends
My Chemical Romance: Kill all ur friends
jeez, same lol
Same
hEh i think you have miz\xed emotions about your friends buddy boy-
Same
why are we literally the same person
To anyone who doesn't have someone to hug, take this as one. I know it's not the same, but I hope I can be there, even if through a youtube comment
So here, Take this a hug :)
stoppp im gonna cryyyyy
but thanks :'>
much appreciated
🤗😭muchas gracias por tu comentario❤❤🤟🤟
Thanks
you are now one of my favorite people.
ok, does anyone even aknowledge robin's ability to carry literally anyone he hugs? thanos would be overcome with wholesomeness but also suffocate
right?? looks like he gives 11/10 hugs

He's very strong. He knows what he's doing.
This hits different when you’re anxious but want a good friendship
yeah
yeah, it definitely does
as someone with diagnosed GAD, yes
oof, but yeah it does, good to know others relate :)
Your name is a big mood
Him: *hugs his friend*
His friend: *hugs back*

My friend: *"dUdE iM nOT GAY!"*
I felt this

Yeah...
This is my fear.
it's frickin annoying 😒😒😔
I’m 68 years old and I am an old hippie and I Love Cavetown!❤️
Cave town is awesome! Hope ur doing good ☆(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*
That is so cute!
you go nancy!
That's awesome!
so wholesome
Ngl listening to this song at 1 am curled up under a blanket during quarantine kinda hits different
So does it slap you or what?
dude literally rn
Same here but my best friend lives so far away I wouldn’t even be able to hug him if we were even allowed to :(
it really do tho
Oh yeah well I have an even worse sleeping schedule than you
“i’d hug all my friends if they weren’t friends with you”
that part always makes me feel sad cuz it always reminds me of how i’m always the person who has a best friend but my best friend doesn’t consider me their best friend, and in friend groups i have really close friends but they don’t consider me really close, and it always ends up w me being left out or them hanging out with each other but not inviting me and me feeling really alone...
i just need a hug :(

*Releases song*
*Releases extended version*
Robbie: waIT, THERE'S MORE
I cried each time I listened, and each time it was for a different reason. this time it was happy tears, I finally found my friends. this song will always be a part of my life.
Happy to hear, I strongly hope your bonds last forever!
Cavetown is a master of making emotions in us
been listening for years and this song never fails to take me out
Can we talk about how it gets all loud and busy in the "I forgot how to walk by myself"
And then just gets super calm and quiet and the suspense breaks and it's just the wholesome clip of Robbie hugging fig and the line just whispers
"I could do with a little more of your help"
Cause I'm crying this part hurts me in a good way
*me listening to this during quarantine*
2 sec later...
*starts crying*
me rn :'-(
Sameee :(((
sis me too
Hug your animal! If you have an animal of course but yeah me too 👌

Sophia Nguyen Ahhww thank you, this comment is too sweet and cute
Lil’ Lonely-Les-Bean i started this song, and then started crying. Like, completely out of nowhere, i feel you hjkjkhkj
Yall seem really cool.
I've been stuck with the same group of toxic "friends" for the past 2 years, they always made fun of me for being gay, excluded me from things etc. etc. but the thing that effected me most was not letting me hug them, I live for hugs and I can barely function without them, but recently I found a new group of friends and they're all absolutely incredible.. and one of them is gay.. and they all love hugs! I feel like I finally have something to look forward to
Love yourself and be proud of it! 💛
*Yooo that's great! Congrats on being gay :D You're incredible and I hope you know that
Thanks for the heartwarming replies, just as a little update, I'm a lot happier now uwu
@@OmegaFennec what manner of absolute wankers don't like hugs?
I love that you've found people more like you, and I'm gay and love hugs aswell so that's pretty cool
after losing a lot of my friends due to a shitty falling out, the “i’d hug all my friends if they weren’t friends with you” line HITS EVERY TIME
im not crying i just really want a hug from Robbie
same •~•
I knowwwww, because ever since I came out to my female friends, any body contact is immediately followed by ‘No homo lol’, and it just makes me feel like crap.
@@lemondrop5097 Aw I'll hug you
Aaa same
ive slowly been falling in love lmao
This song hits different when u are depressed and want someone to notice your sad and for someone to give u a hug and tell u everything is gonna be alright
How are you doing?
Hey ♡ you're beautiful! You're an amazing person! :3 sometimes it might be hard to control depression but hey I'm here for you no matter what! It's gonna be okay believe me never give up 🤍 ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ
Everything will be alright even though this will probably be the last time we ever interact know that someone in the world understands you and is going through something similar
you're**
yeah it really does and when they even catch you crying many times and still put it aside
Well this animal kingdom mixtape was a wild ride
I like humour
I was confused - I kept thinking 'where did you mention rollercoasters?'
I know how to funny
Poliment, qu’est-ce que tu fout la
As somebody who doesn't have any close friends, other than my stuffed animals and myself, I feel things from this song
Me too bestie
I can be your friend :)
I’ll be your friend :
Can relate
Can I be ur friend?
My reaction to:
Original hug all ur friends: "Oh this is really good!"
Extended version: "WOAH"

humans are funny, we hug each other for comfort and to search happiness, we put our bodies together to show affection and adoration, we feel cozy and safe in someone else's embrace, and we apply that concept to animals too. We are, truly, an interesting species
i would like to like your comment but its reached 69, and i am a good person.
so i am hear to tell you i like your comment, please accept this!!
@@rowan9531 thank you, ceo of confusion
@@rowan9531 it's ok, 88 other idiots screwed it up
Lol I'm one of those idiots (it was already at 156 likes)
the more I learn anatomically, the more I learn chemically, the more I learn psychologically about humans, everything just makes less and more sense. In a good way :)
I’m so scared to hug my friends, like will they think it’s weird?? I can hold some of their hands, or they’d play with my hair. I don’t find it weird.
I was listening to this song in Spanish class when I realized I was getting out of my 2-year depression hole! I've come a long way and just to think that the sun just shines so much brighter on the other side. Last January I almost took my own life, but I'm glad I didn't because it led me to this point in time. I made it because of the perfect music, the people I surrounded myself with, and the feeling that always stayed inside me that I just couldn't give up. Cavetown was a main support and after listening to this song, I can't tell you how much I just wanted to sob because I almost gave up on the people who love me so much! So, for the people who feel like giving up, DON'T! It's so much brighter and clear on the other side.
I will always listen to Cavetown because the music was there for me so imma be there for it. Thank you Cavetown for helping my mental health get better! Hugs will mean so much more to me than ever before 💖
I'm glad ur ok❤
@@rooster7052 tysm!
This actually made me tear up a bit, thanks
im so happy you're here to be sharing this, life on the other side of the dark rly is awesome
this hits different when you can’t hug anyone:/
I’m literally sobbing bc I can’t see/talk to my best friend
Why I think that’s have no hands ;-;;
Ikr
my bff died
How? Also sorry to hear
march 2019 : hug all your friends

I miss my friends bro
sofia uwu same 😢
sofia uwu this song kinda hitting different these days :/ wanna hug my friends bro
my cravings for hugs are about to burst 😢
That’s why you should hug your friends before it’s too late
cavetown: "hug all ur friends"
me: i think this is the time i need to start socialising
You:time to start socializing
Yuubo: **get yuubo or you will be lonely for the rest of your life**
Me: eeh sorry about them just ignore em😅😥😕😒
The line 'Do you know what it's like to be nothing at all?' just makes me want to close my eyes, tip back and keep falling. Anyone else?
Dear person reading this,
Everything is going to be okay, okay?
I know we're stuck in quarantine
and we all miss our friends
but it's going to get better.
so when this is over, hug all your friends.
dont let go.
This made me cry, thank you.. :')
@@timmie2491 same.. :') when I see everyone ima hug them and never let go

This song genuinly made me want to keep going on and see that life is worth living when I was going through a dark time. Thank you Robbie, thank you.
i live for your username, i started laughing a little bit and ten seconds later I was almost crying I was laughing so hard, my bother came in to see what was so funny and he didn't think it was that funny (undeserving walmart lamp) he told me he only started laughing bc at the same time my mom yelled 'i swear if you touch that clam chowder again ill rip off your face'
sorry for the long comment have a nice day Yeet McYeehaw
This is exactly how hugs are supposed to be... The most perfect video to be reminded that someone WILL always have your back.

This hits different when you're in self isolation and miss your friends so much and you won't be able to see them for the next few weeks :((
(Especially my best friend, I miss you so much my dude)
update: my best friend has been my girlfriend for 5 months now :))
There's literally nothing more I want right now than to hug my friends...
@@tillytomjones same :((
It’s so awful knowing that you won’t get to see them until September :(
its been two months..
OMG MEEEE
This is a THING THAT NOBODY ASKED FOR, BUT EVERYONE NEEDED IT
Yes. Yes.
YES.
The way the kids looked at Robbie in the crowd teared me up. It's like they are literally looking up to Robbie. Robbie is like a role model to all of us lgbtq+ kids, his songs give us a sense of comfort and closure. I love you 🤧
As a straight man, you're wrong for all the right reasons
*hugs*
Here you go! A virtual hug. Hope this makes your day just a tiny bit better!!!
Stay safe guys!
Thanks so much ^^
Stay safe aswell!

this is why i love robin's channel. he doesnt just post songs, and content that will only fuel his channel for the only purpose of making money. he uploads things like this: things that make people happy. i really appreciate that he takes the time to do these things that other youtubers dont bother with, because this channel is special, and robin's channel will always have a special place in my heart.
factsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
I’m 41 years old and gay. I have sacrificed my life to make others happy. In the past year I met my soul mate after coming out of the closet at 40. I actually bought and learned the ukelele to propose to him. It took me 3 months of a lot of work to play it flawlessly but I finally did it. I took him to Poland to my home town village where there’s a beautiful private bridge over a lake and hillside and took him there where I played this song and asked him to marry me. He said yes and we both cried. Life is good and always follow your heart!
This is so sweet!
CONGRATS!!
This song makes me cry so hard, I've never really had that close bond with anyone that is still here to this day. I want to make memories and I want to enjoy life, but I just can't, it's scary and hard to make yourself vulnerable.
i feel for you
i’ll be your friend :) we can vibe to cavetown
*hugs*
I will run up to you and hug you
I understand you so much. I just never knew how to word it until I saw this comment.
the way robbie's music makes me feel is something i cannot describe.
i have a lot of internet friends. people who mean the absolute world to me. i would do anything for them, anything to meet them and give them the biggest hug i possibly could.
theyve saved my life more times than i could count. theyve made me feel things that i couldnt even process at first. theyve helped me grow as a person, helped me feel something.
i met my first internet friend during august. his name is gage. he lived in south dakota, then moved to vegas... 5 minutes away from my dads house. he made me feel something i havent felt in years. i actually, genuinely seriously fell in love.
before we met, we were so anxious.
"can we hug?"
"yes."
"it wont be weird?"
"no. never."
we got together september 8th, and our 6 month anniversary just passed. i wouldnt trade him for anything else in the world.
when i hugged him, i couldnt help but think of this song while we held eachother in our arms. i almost cried.
thank you, robbie. thank you for giving us music that means something, and that has a good message. i may not know you personally, but i hope one day we can hug and i can personally thank you.
aw that's so sweet x I wish you both the best
this is precious 😍
cozydusk that‘s so sweet, congrats! where did you get to know each other?
That’s so adorable and wholesome. I love that and I love how his music makes me feel as well :). I’m glad you were able to make friends and that you can have the happiness that you deserve
@@blueberry1557 we met on google plus, and exchanged discord tags. we talked and talked, until we eventually got into our personal issues deep into the night... i think thats when i caught feelings. when he walked through my door to see me for the first time, and we made eye contact, my first thought was "i want to spend my life with you."
Christina if u see this:
My friend (named above) hates people touching her, which I get. And there have been very few times that I’ve hugged her, but I call her a cat cuz she’s always poking me or messing with me but I can’t touch her which I think is cute and funny. I brought up the idea a bit ago to take her to a counselor because she’s been going through stuff, and the letter that she wrote to her future self, she mentioned “the next time you see Paige, go up to her and give her the biggest hug and tell her thank you because now your better or almost there.” And that made me cry because for once in my life I felt like I didn’t let someone down. And Christina if u see this, I’m thankful for u putting up with my shit and I’d be more than happy to take that hug in the future. Love u fren❤️
that made me cry
S P A C E D U S T awww no don’t cry
so wholesome *sniff*
Skye Samson 😢❤️
ehehehe im tired and emotional thats so sweet
Recently found this song on another artist's radio; and maybe it's the depression I've been in for the last few months, but this song just hits the spot while simultaneously tearing me up when it builds up ("...I can't breathe anymore"). When I first heard it I immediately text my best friend and she loves it too.
Now tonight, when feeling like I need a cry I just felt pulled to this song for some reason.
This is my first time watching the video and something about seeing hugs outside of the venue down the street from my apartment (Rebel Lounge, Phx, AZ, USA) just filled me with this immense sense of "community." Then, reading through the comments and virtual hugs it just felt that much warmer. Even though I wasn't aware of you when you would've been here filming that and didn't know any of your fans at that time, I still feel the love and positivity that echoes through hearing it now -- all the times this song has been heard and played and acted on -- along with everyone else.
Thank you for your music. From what I've heard from you so far, there's so much warmth, support, and positivity.
And to anyone who read this far, please accept a virtual hug from me, as well, and know that you are, have been, and will be loved.
This inspired me to say something in response (to the "community" in a similar structure) (sorry it's rough, I wrote it 15 min ago):
I know you can't see me
Or hear what I say
But I hope you know
At least in some way
That you're on my mind
That you are my kind
And though you may not know it
You're part of my life
Together we listen
To that song we love
Transmitting through airwaves
In echoes above
Reverberating sound
Across the shared ground
That connects you to me
Wherever we're found
No matter when
Words carry,
No matter who
Is there, we
Are part of the
Same experience,
Lifting & lifted,
In sorrow & laughter
Before, now, & after
And I won't
be the same
Because when you flapped your wings
The cool breeze met my face
Through each person we know
And as I breathe, I hope
My wind carries you on
To wherever you're sailing...
I know you can't see me
Or hear what I say
But I hope you know
At least in some way
That you are so loved
And you always have been
Even when you can't see it
No matter what happens
And sure as my breath
Drifts into the air
I hope your lungs take in
Just how much I care
And that you, in turn,
With no fear or concern,
Echo that love back
Out into the world...
(La, ladida, ladida,
Oh oh,
Ladida, ladida,
Oh oh...)

idk if i shared this story already but here it goes, this song means a lot to me so enjoy the read if you wanna
so i never really was a huge fan of physical affection. it's hard to explain but to sum it up; my dad used to hug me a lot and other physical affection stuff but he turned out to me a scumbag and my mom divorced him and i kinda felt weird about hugging people because of that basically
so growing up people always tried to hug me and i'd swiftly dodge or full on push them away

in respect to her i won't share her full story but basically her mom used to beat her for all the little things or any reason at all. her dad worked late and never saw it or her so she was starved of physical affection as a kid which made her pretty clingy
i'm a hard person to be friends with i'll admit. i'm closed off and pretty cold and an overall bitch. i only made three new friends when i joined a new school. i had tons of friends growing up but after the divorce they left me because i was 'broken'
no one and i mean no one expected kate to be able to befriend me. she was the new girl
she is a really touchy feely unconsciously cuddly girl which does not mix with someone who will push you away if you try to touch me
anyways, kate was super nice to me. this was a bit before i got my first part time job and i was still living off my single mother with four kids's money. which was't a lot so some days i wouldn't eat so i could save her money
kate noticed this and bought me lunch once a week because her dad spoiled her to make up for not being there a lot
here's when i had probably the first hug in at least five years
everyday i take the bus to and from school, kate does too somedays but always comes to school on the bus on tuesdays
i had texted her that morning and knew she was coming in, it was a tuesday so i saved her a spot on the bus
she didn't get on the bus.
she arrived to school ten minutes after me (i arrive 40 mins before school) and came to me crying. she didn't say much only 'mom' i didn't know what to do and there was the thought in the back of my head to do what i'd seen being done many times before
i just gave her a hug
hugging someone doesn't suddenly fix me and i still don't like physical affection but somehow, kate is able to lean against me and when i hold my hand out she'll put her chin on it.
i just let it happen but not with anyone else
i'm getting better though
i gave my mom a hug a while back which came as a shock to her
i gave the uncle i hadn't seen in years a hug
and his wife
maybe one day i'll feel comfortable enough to let someone else in and call them my boyfriend/girlfriend/significant other
i do want _want_ to be able do the whole physical affection thing because i found i actually like it
kate is my best friend and we've adopted all the broken kids
not really
we're just a circle of misfits and broken-down beyond repair outcasts
but we do have good grouphugs when necessary :)
This is such a nice story, mixed with this song it makes me want to cry. Friends really shape your world, don’t they?
At least there are some people that want to hug you-
Awh, i have the same reason to why i dont like hugging as you do wow❤
@@reyzacy6205 I haven't had a hug in 1 year and i don't like hugs unless they actually mean it.i know that sounds confusing but I know why someone is hugging me and I only do it back if I approve of the reason,I know that sounds snobby but you'd understand if I went into more detail
I have a similar reason for not liking physical affection so I’m sorry but this was such a sweet story plz stay safe and have lots of hugs
If only I had the bravery to hug people like Caveboi does
me too! like I love hugs and making people happy but I never know if I should or not and I way overthink it aaaaaaaa
My social anxiety won’t let me ask if I can use the bathroom, much less give someone a hug.
It’s really hard at first, especially for people with anxiety, but you get used to it and then it’s the one of the best parts of life
I got an urge to try so I ran full speed and hugged my friends like him it was pretty cool
Caveboi
The best experience I've ever had is when I went to a church camp and at the end we were encouraged to tell our friends why we appreciated them. It was so freeing and wonderful to be able to express why I appreciate my friends for sticking by me and the amazing counselors who poured into us, and then give them the best bear hugs ever. None of us cared if the hugs went on for "too long", we were too caught up in the absolute marvelousness of the other person. Being able to see everyone for the unique masterpiece that god made them and tell them that was amazing. It was still sad though, because I had to fly back to Spain and it won't be until June that I get to see them again. However their influence in my life and the wisdom and appreciation for human uniqueness they showed me has encouraged me to be a better person, and I can't wait to see them again and tell them even more ways I appreciate them and give them more hugs.
That camp was amazing, and it was the first time I was able to be vulnerable with people. I miss my friends and the counselors sooo much, and I'm incredibly grateful for them.
Update a year later: I got to go to that camp again and it was equally amazing, somehow with even MORE hugs. I got to meet new people, and reconnect with old friends. BY FAR the most important realization that came from this was realizing that each of my Christian friends has the holy spirit living inside of them. Being able to finally comprehend what that means and not seeing the holy spirit as an impersonal ghost was so eye-opening. I actually burst into tears at the realization of how wonderfully created each and every one of my friends is. I was finally able to see them as God does, and it completely overwhelmed me with love for them. After cleaning that nasty snot off my face I went and gave each of them massive hugs and told them how amazing they are. I got to have incredible conversations with everyone there. I miss my friends more than ever, and every day I wish i could ship them over here and give them hugs.
I had the same experience, i leave the country shortly after I attend each year so I cant really keep in touch with my friends, but the couselers are there every year
The comment section: who else misses your friends since self quarantine?
Me: haha sucker I have no friends *cries in sad*
here's a virtual hug from a stranger on the internet :)
I have one friend...
Its my mum :)
Equestrian1234 ._. Same maybe we could both have two?
Yesh
@@richiejarvis358 I miss my mum :( i haven't seen her in so long.
crap now I'm crying :"D
This is why you wanted all the hugging videos.
The fact I hate hugs makes this song even harder to not cry too. I've always hated hugging people because im horrible with emotions and communication
same like i literally cant say i love u lol
oh gosh same I can’t be intimate or affectionate whatsoever because i’m emotionally unavailable but i’m working on it. try healing your inner child to see where this problem is rooted from. it’s kind of helping me.
sometimes I really don't want hugs, but then I sometimes do but i'm too shy to ask for one. I always get hugged when I don't want it though. I always stiffen when I'm hugged so I look like i just don't want to be touched at all-
@@yazzyxx awwwww im so sorry
aaaah same
i just got into a big fight with my best friend, then i herd this song. nuh uh i bolted out of my my house tears filled my eyes.i ran all the way down to her house and gave her a huge hug. im so greatful to have her i would not be me. ty for making this song to realize what i did.
Awwww
everyone deserves a friend like you
Me: *needs to leave in 5 minutes*
This video: *exists*
Me: *well I guess I have time now*
This 63 dislikes are people crying because of how beautiful it is and their eyes were blurry with tears
It was so blurry they tried to like it but misclicked on "dislike"
Nah, they're just jealous they don't get as many hugs
@@Alex-li5wg yeah i actualy think thats the explanation between 21 dislikes
Hey Mel, I'm Mel too!
I'm convinced that all the dislikes on this video were simply a result of people who were trying to like the video and missed due to tears obstructing their vision.
Thats what happened to me..
yes.
I hate it when that happens.
disgusting forest mammal I think they just liked the video so much they tried to like it upside down
I can
I got my hug🥺🥺I made it, I’m alive, I’m here, I barely made it, and I still have the scars, but I’m here, and that’s what counts.
So glad you made it! :)
heyyy! didn't know you were a cavetown fan too
I'm proud of you :)
i'm missing his concert in august. i cried for a day, then it came to my mind... on that week i'll be in a camp with my classmates. we graduate in june so it's our last camp together. i love you robbie, and thank you for teaching the importance of my friends
Congrats
Shirocchi OH MY GOD IM SO EMOTIONAL
I started crying when he said that life was to short to worry about the things we got wrong 😭 😭
*sad teen stuff activate*
Watching this during quarantine really hits different
I miss hugging my friends :(
I really need a hug from my friends.
Me too :(
Marianne same:(
Let's virtually hug eachother then!
@@sqreaminq *hugs*
This hits so different when you truly miss all your friends, and really need a hug.
sending virtual hug now.
Robbie: "let them know... you're not letting go..."
Friends: "IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS, STEVE."
Yeah.. sometimes things don't stay forever..

I'm crying!!! Robbie is such a wonderful person and he deserves the whole wide world, we must protect this innocent amazing bean!!!!
no ones gonna see this but god this hits different when ur a socially anxious person whos lost a lot of friends and is now living in covid times
YEAH LMAOO AHSHAHJS
It really does
yes it really does hit different hope your doing alright
I’m going to be honest, I miss my friends. Not quarantine or anything, but I’ve lost so many it just sucks man.
Me too.
You're not alone. I love you♡
I felt my chest crunch up as I read this because I too... have lost so many friends I cared for like you. But maybe we're meant to meet them later on in life again after some space or time apart or we've got more people to call friends that we'll meet anew. Regardless, let me send you a hug.
dude so many comments are so relatable. i feel like 2020 has been the worst year i have ever experienced.
1- my grandmas dog died ( i loved him to death )
2- got bullied by my bsf
3- lost my best friend
4- attempted suicide
5- found my happiness
6- lost another bsf that i thought i would have for forever ( we even had a yt )
7- got bullied again
8- my grandma passed away (november 2, 2020)
9- had suicidal thoughts
last night- attempted suicide but stopped myself to talk to my sister about it and she was with her boyfriend and his family. they were making ornaments and she took time out of her night to come get me and let me go over to make ornaments with them. i had the most fun i have ever had in my life. and my sisters boyfriend has a brother my age and he's so nice and respectful i think im in love. i finally have something to look forward to.
11- on November 17, i have to go to my grandmas funeral.
soo yeah pretty crappy. i left out a few things but you get the overall gist of it.
@@Rileysoldchan I am so proud of you for going to your sister. I am so so so glad that your attempts at suicide were unsuccessful. I love you, keep doing your best♡
Probably noone is gonna read this, and you don't have to, it's just some rando's ramblings on the internet.
I used to live with next to no physical contact with my friends, as in, we were friends, and did friend things, but no hugs, or hand-holding or anything. Honestly I didn't feel bad about it then.
But then came last year, I moved to a new school, and made new friends, friends that actually hugged and held hands in a non-romantic way and it exploded my young male-indoctrinated brain xd. And it's soooooo much better, I mean, I was starving for physical contact back then and I didn't even know I was.
Now we're all in quarantine and my main problem is not being able to hug any of them and I seriously miss it, like, I regularly think about wanting hugs just because hugs are cool (the funniest part of all this is that I've become the go-to person to get a hug in basically all my friend groups now, turns out having my complection is actually useful for something lol).
So yeah, moral of the story, hug your friends, show'em you love'em, but remember, if you're in an affected area, stay healthy above all else, it's not nice, but you're just gonna have to suck it up and not hug them.
Peace among worlds motherfckers and stay healthy
I read this, nothing lasts forever, you'll get to hug all your friends again :)
Your comment is beautiful
Wholesome comment is wholesome :>
Now I want to give you a hug
Kiko Tanto I've never been able to hug any of my real friends. The closest one is about 700 miles away. I literally just want to cuddle someone. That's all I want in the world. hugs u lol
hug all ur friends~
*looks around*
*see the cat*
cat: no
*she hugs herself* :')
its ok dw
As a person with RSD and anxiety, this helps me remember that my friends aren't leaving me. After so many toxic friendships it's weird for me to feel comfortable again....but I'm getting better.🙂 So thank you Robbie for this beautiful song.❤
I used to listen to this in a time when i was so lonely. Now 2 years later and Im reminded of how lucky i am for the people in my life now
same situation for me. it's amazing to get even a little better :)
I’m still in the first part of this comment :/
Janelle Janelle hope it gets better for you soon 💘 sending love
I'm still lonely hahahaahehua

This is so dang beautiful, Im gonna hug my friends the next time I see them ❤️💙❤️
yea, i agree! it's so cute
hi maaz
What are you doing here
Maaz, hi!
TheAMaazing u a cavetown fab
This really hits when you really need a hug, but you don't want to put any pressure on the only friend that wants to hug u, because she means so much to u
i haven't watched it yet but i know im gonna cry
the crying has commenced
Me when I watched it
I cried so hard
I got a full 20 seconds in before I started crying
C r i
“I forgot how to walk by myself”
“I could do with a little more of your help”
My family never taught me how to do much. Didn’t teach me to clean, cook, nothing. And they expect me to just know, so that hit hard and I cried.
Definitely not alone in this, they tell me they wanted to let me be free and concentrate on school, even if I insisted to teach me these things, hell my brother thought the drier took only 2 mins to dry clothes and he is 30, shows you how hard it can be if you carry your kids too hard in life, thats why I decided to learn everything myself, sorry for rant
Then they're not a good family. I'm sorry that you had to deal with that.
@UClyXIgFVcLRBzxnbqypZwrQ It's fine. I care about you. Others care about you. We want to see you grow in a healthy way.
my family's the same, its okay!! I've found friends who help me learn stuff like that I'm sure you will too :) also hope you have a good night/day! (Ik this comment is kinda old so sry if this is odd response)
could've asked, but i see where u going with this
I was going to sing this at a talent show. But I canceled my audition. Know why?
Because instead of auditioning, I wanted to spend the day with my two best friends. It was Valentine's Day, after all....
best choice ever. Now I'm a wonderful relationship with one of my best friends in the world, and I'm finally loving life. Not a day goes by that I don't see my lover and friends, and remember learning this song.
Maybe next year. At the next talent show.
in the mean time, hug all ur friends ❤
That’s ADORABLE. I love that, good luck on the relationship :)
Comments like this make my fucking day
Awwwwwwww
loving how genderless this is. No LGBTQ, no hetero norms, just...friends and love
@@itsonion651 ❤
Why am I crying. This is happy. Everyone in this community is so nice
I sob everytime I watch this video remembering my last hug with my best friend. I was 14. I'm not a touchy or emotional person and I've never seen her hug a person. The day we had to say goodbye we held eachother so tightly. We cried and cried. Her pictures fill my walls and I keep with me that hug. Neither of us wanting to let go. The world moving in slow motion around us. I love you A. -Nat
This comment made me cry, I’m so sorry
ahh same :( sorry if you see this and it reminds you of them but I hope you moved on. I had a bunch of best friends in my home town and I had to move. I didn’t like hugs at all but when I moved and felt all alone I really just needed one hug from anyone at all. I felt so alone and depressed. But then I knew “Life’s too short to worry thing that we got wrong” I now hug all my friends any time I get :) I wish you the best random stranger on the internet. ❤️
So sorry 😭
Nolan Ross K. dont worry. everything will be okay. me and my best friend found a way to make it feel like were together:
1. Get a stuffed animal or something soft.
2 Fill your mind with the person youre trying to hug.
3. Hug the item. If you let them know and tell them what to do, you might feel a hug back if you focus hard enough!
it gets easier over time, dont worry :3
You have the same name as my best friend and it made me remember saying goodbye to her :(
i don’t remember the last time i was hugged, it’s been a long time
hi. I know its not the same but, I wanna virtual hug you.
I’ve been hugged by my parents plenty, but it’s just not the same. I need a hug from a friend or stranger or boyfriend/girlfriend I don’t know why but it’s just different
HERE PLEASE TAKE MY VIRTUAL ONE!
Same..
@Sawyer McLean same 😫🤚🏻
I’m up at 6:30 watching this ( incredibly early for me) soaking my pillow with the tears that u inspired me to get up and appreciate all the people that love me
Millie Sen it’s legit 6:30 while I’m watching this
Im watching at 6;30
Same! 😂🤦🏻♀️
5 30
I've seen this at 7:32 a. m. lol
I’m listening to this in school I never had to holdback tears so hard 🥺
"Hug All Your Friends"

Hey nobody needs to read this it's just a stranger on the internet ranting:
From an early age I didn't have many friends because of my personality and got called a weirdo and got bullied a lot for it. I ended up moving to multiple elementary schools for it. I actually finally got accepted into a friend group at some point but they didn't like me and often hit me, laughed, teased me. Even though I cared for them and was nice, all they did was mean things.
When I graduated and got to middle school I decided to try to change my personality completely and made friends. I finally had friends and I was so happy and decided from then on I would use that personality around people. But then they slowly left me and I panicked trying to search for other traits that I thought people would like and when I found that people liked sexual things on the internet I started being like that to try to please other people. But then more and more people left and I started to get bullied again and things got really physical. I didn't know who I should have been and became really mixed up with different personalities all over the place.
Then I found him. I met this online guy on the internet and became friends with him. He was the only good thing in my life and helped me sort things out. The only thing wrong with this is that he's ten years older but I didn't care because he was so nice and it was the genuine relationship that I was looking for. But then I stopped messaging him because of that age difference and my life got worse. Getting into toxic relationships and people using me. I don't want to be alone and I stayed.
When I got into high school, where I am now, I only had two friends which I was grateful for. Friends since 6th and 7th grade. The thing is they were getting more and more toxic and started to make fun of me and said hurtful things. We were so close but they were annoyed of me. They put ants in my hair and laughed and said that I had lice and started to slap me and say that I was annoying as hell. They said these things yet got upset when I started to hang around other people. They eventually ganged up on me and ended the friendship. I felt so fucking sad. I can't get a single good fucking relationship without being hurt. I'm alone I have nobody.
Then I thought of the guy on the internet and gave him a message saying that I was sorry and praying that he would respond. And he did I was so happy I could cry. He was the only person that felt genuine and was never mean to me. We talk every couple of days even now and he's the best person despite people hating on the age difference. He has never been lewd and is always a gentleman who listens and laughs with me. I just hope he doesn't leave me in the end as well. Oof this was long not like anyone's gonna read it though, but if you did thanks for listening ^^
That made me cry, I'm really sorry for you experiences, glad you're happy now!
I hope it gets better as a pansexual female I was bullied alot since many people are homophobic they would be aggressive and mean I thought of self harm until I met someone online she was great my only friend she supported me laughed with me and cried with me so coming from a similar situation I feel your pain and I hope you meet wonderful people and have a great and happy life💜
Wow that hit me. I really feel for you and I only wish u the best. People can be real jerks sometimes but know u are the only person u need to please. Not anyone else. Much love :)
Literally exact same thing happened to me minus the internet friend one😅I try making friends on the internet but it doesn't work,people often talk to me about their problems then ignore mine but I guess it's ok bc I can rant in the comments
we can't hug you in person (for many reasons) but i hope you'll accept this virtual one! i will always be here to rant w/ you. you might not be able to find good people in reality (trust me, they will come) but on the internet there are a bunch of people who we talk with you to get everything off your chest and maybe take away some of the pain. if you ever need to rant again, just reply to my comment :>
I wish i could just have a hug. Even if it was from a stranger. But this song did give me a little hope
here, have a virtual hug!!! :D
*virtual hug* here, hope you have a nice day/night and dont forget to love yourself, you're amazing :) 💕💖
Ugh, ikr
I'm so touch depraved it hurts 😅
*gives virtual hug* :)
Sending you virtual tight warm big huggssss. We love you. 💗💗💗💗
4:58 the "you're not letting go" in the background gave me chills everytime

You've done it...
This is my first time crying to a song. Now that I think about it, it's really the second time crying to something besides getting hurt or something.
I don't really know how to feel.
this comment almost brought me closer to tears than the video.
i'm the same way and you know, we gotta stick together.

He attacc.
But most importantly...
He give hugs..
UwU look at juliet the song of him and i commented the sane thing lol
He hug bacc
S u n f l o w e r S e e d I would have said they hug bacc
My first time listening to this song and it fucked me up.
About a year and a half ago my childhood friend died from an overdose. I regret so much not making an effort to keep in touch with him. He was there in a lot of my memories and will always be important to me.
Wherever he may be now, im sure is somewhere better and nice. May he rest in peace. I hope you do well too, keep going.
he'll keep living in your memory. im sorry for your loss man, itll be alright
Omg im so sorry. I hope you okay
First name Last name omg i'm so sorry for you😭💔 He's in a better place now :/❤
I'm so sorry, please keep going
I keep crying whenever I watch the music video, I cry even when I listen to the song. God, I miss all of my friends and I just really need hugs. I want to hug all my friends and tell them that I love them and that they deserve the world but I'm not able to wrap it in a box for them and it just breaks my heart that school has been taking up most our time. I miss all my friends so much
