  • Incredible cover of her song “Anything” played to Adrianne while she records. She mentioned it brought her to tears as she hadn’t quite realized the power of the song until hearing it from him. I couldn’t agree more.
    I don’t own rights to this song. Adrianne posted this on her instagram and I wanted to be able to add it to my RUclips playlist

    Every time she asks, "is it ok if im close?" it makes me cry, because it seems like that question is a big theme in the song

      I felt that too. It's an exchange of silence hes worried about the tuning and she doesn't say anything. Shes worried about her proximity and he doesn't say anything.

    This is what it is to be human. To share art, to interpret it together. To watch something you love so dearly evolve and hear it from the mouths of others. This song is one of the most beautifully written pieces all around. Every cover I hear of it breaks my perspective of everything and I love it every time. I have so much love in my heart for Adrienne and for Steve’s wonderful cover and for anyone reading this. I have so much love and no idea how to spend it so I will share it and write about it even though it may never be understood. This is the human spirit. This is what it all means and I love you all.

    I always thought indigo was an interesting color choice to associate with fear, since indigo is a shade of blue and purple, blue=sad purple=starting anew, i thought that was really interesting. Then i realized indigo was the name of a person, and it was literal, and it made the song a lot more personal. I think its great with both interpretaions. Really brave to actually put her name in it.

    the fact she writes “wanna listen to the sound of your blinking, wanna listen to your hands south, listen to your heart beating, and listen tot the way you love’ is do powerful because she wants to listen to the little things. you can’t hear those things unless your close to them. and how she writes ‘weren’t we the stars in the heaven, weren’t we the salt in the sea’ she is saying weren’t we infinite. and that struck me. i love you adrianne

    I'm not familiar with Steve Fisher, but damn this is a powerful, moving version of the song. Steve plays the song in a different key (to suit his voice), a different tuning (standard, with a capo, while Adrianne uses an open tuning), he changes up a lyric or two (e.g., "Listen to the sound of you breathing" instead of Adrianne's "blinking"), and he doesn't change up the chord progression during the chorus (while Adrianne switches things up during the chorus by starting on a minor chord). The song is so great that it retains its power despite these minor changes. In fact, both versions seem perfect. Thanks for sharing this.

    "lay in your lap while i'm crying "....
    so vulnerable, for someone to see the tears stream down your face like a cold river (which may remind you of them), it's like stripping your soul naked. but you know what's the irony of it all? - the comforting arm is the one that hurt you in the first place, but oh the warmth of their fingers, the fleeting hope that everything will work out, when in the end, it's doomed to fall apart. since the beginning it was doomed to fall apart. but why try, you may ask?
    human nature does the wonders, that's why. it continues to fight even when the white, defeated flags are being waved from the other side and there's no more use of wasting your precious seconds.
    maybe, maybe in another universe i'd lie in your lap without crying, but in this one, i'll have to say goodbye, because my eyes are drying and cheeks are too red, if you touch them with your knuckles, your hand may burn up. and i don't want that to happen, such a fool i am, still caring about the possible pain to you i may cause.
    we would never be that lucky and you would not go against anything for me, but in the mere second i saw the glimpse in your eyes and I knew you were double guessing the fate. I knew it, the same way I have memorized your heartbeat, however, life got in our way, and you weren't strong enough to bring the swords and strike back.
    i'll catch you on the flipside. as for now, farewell, i will try my best to erase your touches on my skin and not search for you in every single crowd i might meet along the way.
    i could've loved you endlessly, i could've let you sleep in the car while I'd drive. I'd kiss your eyes too, tirelessly.
    Adrianne, this song is a gem. you cracked me up and unleashed the pain i've been trying to conceal, such a magic you carry with your mind and fingertips.

    Back in 2020, I had a major identity crisis, and my mental health was at an extreme low for the first time in my life. I was 12 years old. I became much too hard to handle for my dad, who believed that the life I was leading was my choice, I was ostracized from his side of the family on Thanksgiving of that year. I started reconnecting with him last year. The first time I'd gone back to his house for nearly three years, I noticed that there were no photos of me on the walls. My stuff had either been packed away in the garage or given away to my 5 siblings. This song reminds me so much of him, of my siblings, of my entire family who believes that I am at fault for not being apart of their family (I was 12). Now, at 16, I'm truly coming to terms with the fact that as much as I hate him, I still want to be apart of his family. I want my dad back. I don't really know why I'm writing this, but if anyone can relate, know it was never your fault.

    I'm glad Adrianne was able to realize the power of the song by hearing someone else sing it to her, because that's how I feel every time I hear her sing it. Absolutely beautiful work

    this cover has changed my life. It literally made me bawl my eyes and made me think about love in a whole different perspective and trust. I don’t know how to explain this but, i feel like this cover when i’m someone i love deeply. I trust them with my whole heart. It’s beautiful just how people can just make beautiful things into more beautiful things.
    keep up the amazing covers 💗

He past away two weeks ago, i feel like he would've really loved this song.

    When I was 14 I met the best friend I still cherish forever. We grew up everyday together, I love with my mother who has a boyfriend who’s ruined her my life was horrible at home. I’d spend everyday at her house . I’d starve with her I living off ravioli and hot Cheetos everyday for three years thanks to food stamps. I ran away three weeks before my 18th birthday we’d steal alcohol from the store everyday. We were such bad alcoholics. I got blacked out drunk once again and I got into a bad argument which led me to self harming myself so bad. I’ve always selfed harmed . But that night I need medical attention because the cut was so deep and big. I spent my 18 th in a mental institution. Did nothing but call my bestfriend every 20 minutes. I stared out the window for hours wishing I was dancing in grass . Next week is my 19th birthday. I’ve came such a long way. I was 104 lbs then I’m almost 125 lbs now. I don’t have an alcohol problem. But gosh how this week is hitting me so harsh in the heart. I love everyone I wish too meet every soul on this earth good or bad. I wanna spread love and joy. We are all so beautiful if you got to here pls leave me a reply . I love you so much. I will die loving everything I never saw and everything I have.

    I never really noticed before the beauty of this verse until I heard this cover:
    "Weren't we the stars in heaven?
    Weren't we the salt in the sea?
    Dragon in the new warm mountain
    Didn't you believe in me?"
    I don't know why, I just never really noticed it. Something about the cadence and the way this man sings it. Maybe because he's playing it a bit slower, and he emotes the words a bit differently.
