Man I can’t articulate how well this song touches my soul and brings up such powerful feelings of shame, guilt, hope and grace all at once. Your voice fits your word choice so well. I’m a fan and know you are going places. Keep making songs like this. They do more than you will ever know or see.
No doubt buddy! I just found your music over this past weekend and I have to tell you that your song Darkness is phenomenal. It gave me chills. I remember finding Zach Bryan’s music about 3 years ago and it’s been cool to watch him pretty much blow up now. I only say that because I I truly think that you will do the same. No bullshit. I’ve sent/shown 10 people your music in the past few days and will continue to. If you ever come down to DFW I know of some venues you can play at and it would be badass to catch your show.
I cannot tell ya how much that blows my mind you think that haha. Super appreciative of the kind words I only hope I end up being a tenth of what Zach has become. Hopefully I will be able to venture out that way really. Have been trying to put together some connections down in the whole region but it’s tough. Follow my music pages or page though just in case I do venture out to ya.
I have a childhood best friend that is part owner of a place called Dan’s Silverleaf in Denton Tx and another good friend who manages a cool venue in Justin, Tx. If you put something together let me know and I’d be happy to put y’all in touch.
My addiction is cutting and other forms of self harm.i feel misunderstood all the time because of how i cope and i put this on repeat and cry for hours.thank you for this
At my worst , I always say I’m “ okay” . I’ve been listening to you for years now man, and your music truly helped me through addiction , divorce and almost giving up. thank you for putting songs to how I feel . Keep going brother 💪🏽💯
God damn brother. Never lose the emotion. 68 hit home and made me a life long fan. As a man who writes about his own trials, you motivate me. You have a beautiful voice and a talent on that six string.
Just discovered Nolan Taylor. All I can ask u, Is why? I've been listening to all his music and I gotta tell u it getting me thru some tough times right now. I hope he knows his music is making. Thank you Nolan...
Sums up my entire mindset while using been clean 3years now and myself and my children are much better for it prayers go out to those dealing with addiction love you all tomorrow is another day
Since I discovered Nolan less than a year ago, I haven't been able to stop listening, it's not even a choice. This is my personal favorite of his, but whichever song of his I'm hearing, I feel like I'm with a friend I can relate to.
I am certain that you wrote this song for my husband and I. I can’t begin to tell you how much this touches us. It’s insane god bless. I’m a forever fan. You are so incredibly talented. Thank you
Omg the raw emotional truth ov the deepest life experiences unreal how much this hits my core stay true nolan and thankyou you music has helped me so much u are definitely 💯 the next biggest guy out there 💙
I've been clean for 10 years in april. I had my first child in january of 2015. Two months later i stopped using. I come from a background of severe child abuse, physical, sexual, and emotional. You can get clean. You can stay clean. You're worth so much more than what you've been made to believe. You were wonderfully and fearfully created.
I'm soooo sorry that you have had to go through this Hell that I, and so many others are. Thank you for so beautifully expressing what I could never find the words or soul to do. This means more to me than I can show. I hope and pray that it gets better for you, and the rest of us stuck in this darkness.
men like you who put so much love, pain & angst into their passion inspires me to a degree i cannot form into words. you have a God given gift my friend and i am exponentially relieved to have come across your music. Please, do not stop doing this. I hope to land on the level you are at for my music one day.
😢 i cant stop listening. ❤ this has been one of my favorite songs sinceive heard it. Absolutely beautiful id live to learn the cords. The words everything i want to remember this song forever
I never bother leaving comments... I spent the better half of my life writing songs. Your dynamics are perfect. Your voice and lyrics - just right on this one. Feel it in my gut man. Love and respect
Damn Nolan, your music is on a different level. As someone that shared a similar rough childhood then also faced some serious issues that you sing about, your music hits me hard. They're words I can't find the strength to say and it's made me want to start to get back into writing and playing. Thanks man, not sure you'll ever see this, but thank you, and I'm glad you're still here.
Could only imagine if you covered something in the orange, love your voice … thank you for sharing all your music with us, I listen to you everyday at work. You help me to keep carrying on and I can’t thank you enough for that
I really love your music man. Every song is incredible because of your song writing skills, and that kind of consistency is unreal. Can’t wait to catch a show
All my years of addiction and struggle fit right with these world, its been 16 years now since I recovered but this took me back to the anxiety and the grief of who I was and where I came from, I love this man, you've really put it in words what us lost souls felt!
I been clean about 3yrs and this song touches the deepest part of my soul thank u for putting in lyrics, what I couldn’t begin to say in the heart of my addiction. You the beat thanks
What a beautifully woven tapestry of melody and emotion. Michael P led me here, I’m sure many more will follow to adore your brilliance. Keep telling your stories to the world please, we so desperately need it.
I came across your music late last night. Absolutely blown away. You deserve all of the adoration you’re soon to receive. I hope you’re happy though. I don’t know you man, but your music sure makes me feel like I do. I hope you’re happy because your music sure made me happy.
I could probably count on my two hands how many times I've felt compelled to comment on a RUclips video. I felt like I needed to here. As both a recovering addict and someone who has lost quite a few people to active addiction this song just hits a little differently. I found you like 2 days ago and I've listened to this song probably 60 times at this point. Nolan, everything, your voice, the lyrics, the guitar it's all fucking perfect. Please please please come to Canada so I can see you live !! Don't ever stop doing what you are doing.

My God you’re incredible. Between this and 68 I don’t know how you do it. Truly blessed with a very rare gift. Thank you brother.
“Tell you how I feel but all you have for me is an okay” hit me so hard.
This came at an amazing time. I miss my past yet look forward to a future of hope.
How is this song more popular. This song describes talking to an addict perfect.
As someone who has overcome addiction and alcoholism this song hits me hard...
No seriously,I have primally screamed to this song. You get it.
DANG DEEP AF. 🤘🏻😭👉🏻 NOLAN
You. Just. Saved. Me.
My addiction is cutting and other forms of self harm.i feel misunderstood all the time because of how i cope and i put this on repeat and cry for hours.thank you for this

Thank you!
One of the best and most depressingly overlooked artist living in our great country. Keep going brother. We love it up here in Maine.
This song hits different when the love of your life is dead. He died from an overdose and this one just gets it. I hate it but I love this song.
I’m sorry… that’s horrible 😢
Just discovered Nolan Taylor. All I can ask u, Is why? I've been listening to all his music and I gotta tell u it getting me thru some tough times right now. I hope he knows his music is making. Thank you Nolan...
Brother - you have to be the next big thing. Don’t see how that can’t happen.
I sure hope so haha appreciate you for real thank you.
This is the truest song I've ever heard in my life omg
This song, 68, and dead roses saved my life, i mean it, thanks brother i love ya.
My dad was a blues man, and if he was alive I'd heard your music sooner!
Sums up my entire mindset while using been clean 3years now and myself and my children are much better for it prayers go out to those dealing with addiction love you all tomorrow is another day

One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.
Trenchtown rock
Except sometimes it makes the pain real
One love my brother
How does this have so few vieuws, let's all try to blow this man up on social media. More people should hear his amazing songs.
He’s going to blow up!!! No doubt.

thank you so much!
I’ve needed this song for so long
Love it when I find talented artists like him. Cool Song man! Sorry it took me two years to find it.
If you open for City and Colour it would be the greatest show ever. I'm a new and big fan! Please never stop!
A dream!
I don't think I have heard anything this emotionally charged in a long, long time. Amazing song
Sometimes, losing is the kindest thing you can do
I am certain that you wrote this song for my husband and I. I can’t begin to tell you how much this touches us. It’s insane god bless. I’m a forever fan. You are so incredibly talented. Thank you
Okay. that one word can say a lot and you explained it beautifully. Sorry you had to face that, my friend
My favorite song of yours man, having loved an addict this hits so hard. Please release this song officially

Was such a treat to see last night in Seattle. Was really something else to see him live
I was there too and was blown away! I got to meet him after, he is so kind. It's rare I am affected like I was seeing him.
Such a beautifully broken song ❤
Def one of the best songs ever! So many feelings I can not ignore
When you blow up and need a touring drummer i call dibs. Everything I've herd from you is nothing short of spectacular!! Keep up the great music.
I've been clean for 10 years in april. I had my first child in january of 2015. Two months later i stopped using.
