    The studio version is the shortest 10 minutes you'll ever listen to.

    Kurts songs seem simple then you try to play them and realize how damn good he is a guitar to be playing and singing

    This man translates unrequited love and good spirited regrets in a way I just can't even begin to explain. Good man.

    Why does this song make me sad in such a good way?? He comes off so hippie dippy-like, but the lyrics are philosophical and deep and make me think. In the psyche of my soul..... I appreciate him to the utmost.

    He played a free show near my hometown in PA, found out hes a Pennsylvanian too, but I ended up missing it because I couldnt get anyone to go with me, I still regret it everytime I listen to Kurt

    Only 11k views? He deserves a lot more. It’s nice to see there are artists still like this out there.. we need them desperately.

    You are a FKIN PIONEER my friend! I've never heard such complexity with "basic chords" ...you just straight up play em differently, inspiring to me that so much can be done with so little.

    His tiny desk concert is the best version of this song

      The currents not bad it finishes better, but the tone the bass and the drum machine are boss

    oh man. this is a great mixture of artists of old: The Doors + Neil Young + (call me crazy but i hear Talking Heads here as well) . Simply Brilliant Kurt!!!!

      Doors?! Have you lost your mind?

      I hear Lou Reed in there too.

    • @dynjarren8355
      @dynjarren8355 4 года назад +2

      Way off! He sounds nothing like the Doors. And vocally sounds nothing like Neil Young. No one does actually.
      Kurts an original voice. Doesn’t sound like anyone.

    • @holgerwacholder3581
      @holgerwacholder3581 2 года назад +2

      Definately original sounding, but nonetheless his style and cadence reminds of dylan a bit...i dont think anyone here is trying to say he is a rip off by likening him to other artists
      ..thats just music...different people perceive it differently, or their brains highlight different aspects to them

    • @brandonmeadows7972
      @brandonmeadows7972 2 года назад +2

      Could be but I think it's about being someplace and wanting to be in another.

      Acid can definelty bring those feelings to surface, which I'm sure we can all relate to. Maybe Acid wasn't at the fore front, but listening to the studio version when peaking is a beautiful experience
