It makes me so sad that i cant share my pleasure, listening to these songs with anyone. Cause I don't know a single person who likes this and I simply can't understand why... There's so much passion in it and I really would like to share this joy with someone..
I feel your pain man, I'm the only one at my high school who listens to these guys/this stye of music.
Oh god.. I feel exactly the same ...
For what its worth you just shared it with me
so fucking true
Jannik Bader I can relate so much it's ok :)
"I'll put my fingers in the door, so when I close it on you, I'll hurt a little bit too."
After recent events, those lyrics will always have an effect on me.
Because the only reason I held on to you is because I felt I had nothing less
Zack ♥️ :(
This is my situation now

"I was born a virgin, covered in blood and free of sin, and that's the exact shape I wanna make when I jump off this bridge."
Well, fuck...
:/
same
i don't understand what that means
To me it's a juxtaposition or metaphor, he's saying if he were to commit suicide, he would want it to be like his birth. If his body were to hit the ground, he wants to leave this Earth covered in blood, and free of sin, just like how he came into this world.
Here I am 5 years later …. Still loving this song ✨
It gets better every year 😂
Same. Still relatable.
Same here and damn that song is just beautiful
Hey you guys might not know this, but in Cam Smith's book of poetry and short stories, the second to last short story is called seven boxes, containing all of his memories before he turned 18, at the end he burns it all, please read it, the video has so much hidden meaning, this Is so much more than music, Cam Smith is so much more than a writer, he's my idol.
Where do I find his poetry?
+Christopher Gelling where can i read these short stories?
+Christopher Gelling Wow, thanks a lot man
That's the exact address, my pleasure by the way
thanks
i dont know how they are not more popular. this group is amazing.
its better that way
Cam has mentioned that this new album will be about surviving after a failed attempt at suicide, and how he is having to cope being the one alive while he has lost close friends due to them committing suicide. I feel like this video does a great job preparing us for the album, because it shows him burning his memories (which could symbolize his failed attempt and how he is coping in order to survive) and putting the painting that the girl made next to a flower pot .(This could symbolize that she could have died, and he is mourning her. The flower is also in a pot, which shows that it still has room for growth.) At the end, Cam is seen throwing the 'ash' of what you could assume to be his memories over the flower and walking away. (He is accepting his past, and is making the necessary steps to continue on with his life.) This music video is so surreal.
Erik Schmehl wow
Wow. Just wow, dude.
Please keep me updated about this new project
@@Antivistt run wild, stay alive. It’s been out since 2016, one of my favorite albums
Cool! Suicide is SO cool!
I don't need my memories. I just need today, because today I am alive, and that is beautiful. -Cam Smith 7 boxes
"Every time you tell yourself your not worth it, every time you tell yourself your worthless, your being lied to. In that case the lair is you." Great use of words right there
time to cry
wtf dude
+Austin Rowe Doesn't mean that you can't have problems and cry.
@austin rowe: You still have a lot to learn in life dude... It may seem not that important to you, but every problem is relevant. People first have to overcome their personal problems before they can look after your so called "First world problems".
Same
The painting she made would look great on a white t-shirt *hint hint*
Tbh, it would
STK Aranaar rippp 💀😂😂
I don't have enough drugs to deal with this
More heroine💙
This may be one of the best songs ever written, no joke incredible 😢
God, this is so beautiful. I can only imagine what a Hotel Books concert is like.
A hotel books concert is the most Intense, emotional yet best concert you could ever go to!
Opened for them on thier tour in 2015. It was wierd though because they were headlining at a venue where it was all beatdown/downtempo metal and metal core. Kinda strange....but I like them anyway haha.
*pats self on the back* its okay its okay
..
This is beautifully edited. Always wondered what it'd be like to hear July & August morphed into one and now I no longer have to. Such a masterpiece. This band is gold and has helped so many people who struggle internally with their own demons. So much love for these dudes, can't wait to see what they bring us in the future.
yeah bro, i respect them so much for their work. Definitely one of the best bands right now.
I was washing dishes when I heard this for the first time. I stopped and cried on the floor.
I was walking in the forest with my dog when I first listened to this song. It was great, I cried a little.
I don't believe in a god or sth, but I dearly hope you all find peace and purpose in your life, cause you are all worth it.
xVietsmilex
but why not God? why do you not believe?
xVietsmilex haven't felt much self worth lately. Thanks for this
This song makes me realise how depressed and broken I actually am
Love you fam stay strong ❤️
Years later and this shit still gives me chills. Amazing heart felt music and nothing will ever compare. Thank you
Hello my name is Jeff and I wanted you to know that you saved my life! I have been going through a really really bad time I just became homeless and I honestly didn’t expect to make it through last weekend.... but I have been listening to your music and it truly honestly saved my life! I just wanted to thank you for sharing your passion with me and saving me!
This band's music is so frustrating in a way.
So poignant and beautiful, but it's so hard to bring myself to listen to it every time, cause I know it'll leave me broken and I don't wanna face all the shit in my head I fight so hard to keep silent all the time.
And here I am crying like a baby again :')
always coming back when i'm in a dark place, Hotel Books is true art and beauty
5 years later and this song makes me want to break down and cry. Thank you to the special person who shared this music with me, I love you.
I'm terrified, but I've never felt so alive. I wasn't crying until he said this.
Okay but I love that she paints "run wild, stay alive" which is the name of their previous album
Holy shit, my band is opening up for these guys.
Zach Yenor highly doubt it
@@8328Chico stop doubting
@@MegaJuices lol
8 years and still hits home
amazing work, its lovely to see them trying a narrative driven video instead of just a video of the band performing the song
Yes let there be a Wooden Floorboards video
i think its too old now:/
MattysEdits
MattysEdits yes please wooden floorboards!
Happy five years. To this song on February 25th 2022
The day after my birthday
One of those nights where you remember who you didn't want to remember because for the most part you are over them but you know deep down inside you still love them and always will. 😪💔
I don't know how hotel books has not gotten big like I mean blink 182 big Ya know the lyrics he uses are just extraordinary and his grammar and tone of voice like "because I was born a virgin covered in blood and free of sin and that's the exact shape I want to make when I jump off this bridge" that's just makes you think about your life all over again the good and the bad yo it's crazy
Not everyone deserves something this beautiful
@@thecrazybassman3102 you have big mind bro
I can't be the only one who cries every time they hear one of these.
There's this boy named christian A that gave me this band. Best gift ever. Funny thing is I've always been a little in love with who he is and now he's found someone. But this band always reminds me of him
This felt like the most beautiful punch in the face. My God how amazing.
Petition to make the stay alive painting into a t-shirt
SShimon I'd buy that T-shirt
it's so good that it hurts
"And she looks at photos of her beautiful mother in her youth and is envious of that smile she had when she was 22"
wow
Wow I've always loved both these songs but now that I see this, I'm in tears.
im really glad after all this time, this song could make me cry. and cry for myself and others at the same time because i can relate to the emotion and im so glad i can cry and feel emotion.
"Run Wild.
Stay Alive. 💕"
No other love will accommodate this blindfold so easily.
I loved when the shelves suddenly turn to empty. It was a great artistic choice and I am in awe of the emotion that split second provoked in me.
Cam Smith is the reason I grew a pair and decided to start performing the things I write. He is a genius. I wish more people were as raw and honest as him. I'm a better person because of his music and poetry, I'm stronger.
Run wild young beauty.....another song they made, and she painted run wild. I get it now
this song makes me sad and happy at the same time . so beautiful ❤️
I'm baaaack. still digging this one
I love both of those songs but at the end was that the girls ashes?
I think so
No it was the ashes of the memories he burned that involved being her that he spread over her grave and painted after she committed suicide
thia guys poetry is amazing. I found his music only last night and it has opened my eyes to my own reality.
This is amazing people ask me why I listen to this music it's calming emotional and it helps I also like listening to this while drawing it's great :)
You can't get out of sadness if you don't want to.....if you wanna reach out for nothing forever close to something then you will....you will..
what an amazing performance. Just finally found something worthy to compare to La Disputes Wildlife and Avoid. Even think this beats all spoken word I have ever found. Beautiful!
this had me almost in tears. This truly is a work of art!
I'll manage not to cry listening to Hotel Books someday 😭
I don't know, how can people dislike this? It's..
I only discovered Hope Cartel just two years ago at 36 years old. I still remember where I was. I was watching my son practice martial arts while sitting in the audience. I put on my wireless headphones and decided to try listening to this spoken word poetry band known as 'Hotel Books'. As the songs kept playing, I was so overwhelmed with emotion I had to get up and leave the dojo so no one would see me burst into tears. I have ever had such a visceral response to music before. The words spoke to me in ways that left me speechless and exhausted.
Incredible.
I've loved this song for years and years🖤
I've been listening to these 2 songs for years and even have the album on vinyl and I not once realized that at the end, he was spreading her ashes. im absolutely torn.
I hope you're happy, dude. All the best.
fuck this hits close to home to me, don't think I've shed so much tears to a song before
Absolutely amazing
*Run wild. Stay alive.*
But its so hard sometimes
Arielle Arsenault it's so fucking hard indeed. Be strong ❤️
@@ariellepaige995 best things in life are never easy but the payout is always the best
“God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers”. It’s always worth continuing to try no matter how hard it gets, I’m not gonna lie and say it will get better, but you learn better ways to deal with whatever it may be that’s pulling you down, and maybe, one day, it won’t be so hard anymore.
Tattoo plans
You deserve all the love in the world.
ive listened to this almost 200 times i swear
Hahahah beat my record of listening to it when I'm crying because you cant beat that because I cry constantly
Best writing and best songs on one of the best albums of last year.
absolutely beautiful, you never fail to amaze me!
I dedicate this song to treats. May your journey be un teathered. Keep your feet to the ground with your head held high and the wind on your back.
if i ever need a good cry i come back to this because i was so close to making that decision of the last decision and it keeps me here thank you hotel books
Songs and video are masterpieces, hands down.
this saved my life today..
crying my eyes out rn
I thank the world for hotel books
Love this band and his words
No one should be ashamed of this...these guys are amazing they deserve to be shown to other people I heard these guys on my la dispute station at work and this song made me cry his words are so real
"how did that child grow up to be like this" i hate looking at old photos of me as a kid. he looked so happy. and he was.
Shit makes me cry my eyes out..
my birthday is in July my sisters is in August these songs really just make me cry a lot . cause me and my sister relate to this so much I can't wait to see hotel books in two weeks!!💕💕
Miss when these were fresh for me.. still comeback and listen to take me back to some oddly better but darker times iml.
I don't think Hotel Books could ever make a bad song like honestly all their songs are so amazing and heartfelt.
Ive never loved an artists work this much
I’ve never cried to a song that I actually felt the relation of.
The feelings I get at 1:04 from the change in tone...
Lost my boyfriend of two years the other day.. This on repeat is the only thing putting me to sleep.. Thank you for making beautiful music.
I can't listen to Hotel Books. The pain comes out and so do the tears. This poor boy has so much pain. I want to give him a big hug. Is that him when he was a little boy in August? That makes me sad, to see him so happy as a child, growing up and learning what pain is. He has so much inside of him that his music is just scratching the surface. I hate pain, and being lost. Stay strong brother. You're an amazing soul.
One hell of a poet; very powerful. An Edgar Allan Poe for the modern ages.
IM CRYING THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
this is amazing, loved every single bit of the video. can you pls do a music video for wooden floorboards? i would love to see that.
Wooden Floorboards is such an intense song, I would also love to see that video
I like how in the video when cam is opening those boxes that's exactly from his short story
Seven Boxes. I love you, Cam.
Depression is real. One can mask it to seem happy and "themselves" when they're really battling their own demons. I really feel his pain and emotion in this song. I have and still am living this constant torture. Trying to cure myself didn't work. Still isn't working and I am too stubborn to get the help I need. In my head, drinking and sleeping is my closure. Masking my "happiness" around others at work see the "happy, cheerful, full of life dude" isn't so happy and cheerful inside.
omg I'm so excited for this these are my two favorite songs
This is beautiful, i don't understand how people dislike this. the way both were put together was brilliant, i love love love
There’s something about falling that just doesn’t sound worth it--- this fucks me up
Minhas duas músicas favoritas do CD "Run Wind, Young Beauty". Parabéns a banda! ótimas músicas!
WOW THIS IS POWERFUL
Melody😍❤️ love that girl!
what a time to be alive
this always makes me cry
This is a great artist. Ive relized a lot of great things throughout his songs. Plz dont stop making music. You are an aspiration.
I've always been afraid to fall in love , because there's something about fall that doesn't sound worth it ... life motto right there
"Im tired of trying to be something i cant be, and im tired of fighting for something i can't see."
Love the Seven Boxes reference. Awesome video. Awesome band.
