Kids dressed up like Mormons
Not sure if it’s irony
Double Casamigos
Hiding in the balcony
Send me your location
I’ll send you a selfie
Babe this dream I had
Feels like it might ruin me
Everyone’s acting like it’s so cool
Everyone’s saying this is so you
Chorus
There has to be better shit
to give a shit about
Instead of wondering what people think about me now
The things that I don’t know could fill
A million fucking houses
I never learned to dance
Buying weed on Wilshire
Sexting with my therapist
Making beats with Randos
Starting to get arrogant
They’re like Boy you got connections
Now you’re really fucking doing it
Come on
Everyone’s acting like it’s so cool
Everyone’s saying this is so you
Chorus
There has to be better shit
to give a shit about
Instead of wondering what people think about me now
The things that I don’t know could fill
A million fucking houses
I never learned to dance
Released a live EP that includes a live version of Never Learned To Dance that's on streaming services!
and it's really good too!!
This is still my favorite
Thank you for saving me❤
amazing. I have no notes. you outclass everything i have ever tried to do. I will study.
plssss release this version to
This isn't music. This is something else.
I feel like this is one of the types of songs Hunter S. Thompson was referring to. If you listen to this loudly, no matter how long you've been on empty. You'll have another 50 miles in you.
Best comment on this video.
Absolutely
Such a good comment. Where exactly did he say this?
I was gonna comment, but you just nailed it. Now I have 49 miles to go.
He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man
Long shift tonight, hard work, long weekend leading into a longer week. 1am, I chose to come home to this with a beer in hand. Soothes the soul.
This song always gives me an uneasy feeling, in a good way. Accepting that we as humans will never experience everything can be hard sometimes. The list of things we don't and will never know can be disheartening
Currently sitting in my room sobbing. my 18th is in 13 days n I’ve had to beg people to just come. It’s been awhile since I’ve felt so lonely. I’m glad I’m always able to come back to this song and find comfort.
happy late birthday, my friend
it's gonna be okay, kid. Promise.
never beg people to be in your life kiddo. im speaking from experience. pick yourself up and carry on.
If your friends suck, you'll find other ones along the way, don't worry. Just avoid toxic relationships.
Learn some guitar or create beats, start a band, join a community (something IRL like skate, art, anything), make like-minded friends, have fun & explore. There's pain AND joy, lots of.
happy late birthday, don't give up, there's good in the world but we all have to make an effort to find it! Ditch those scumbags...
I think it’s crazy how some random stranger across the world can write a song that perfectly describes what you’re going through. It’s uncanny how much each little line is poignant and cuts me a little bit when I hear it because it’s so painfully true. I genuinely never learned to dance so I thought I would be cheeky and listen, but you ripped my heart out with how exact this is to what I think and feel; even how I would word it or interpret this in my own perspective
This is an amazing commnet, thank you for searching deep within for these words and then sharing them with the internet to read. Many will skip over it not understanding the importance of such a comment being on the internet. Again, thank you.
Hey...I like your comment...Thanks for sharing... It was pure and prescious
you're never alone, brother.
Human spirit is pretty fucking amazing isn’t it? 🤟🏼
@@kickandthehug4447shit takes a beating and you think it's broken and never coming back, and then after what feels like way too long or going to be never... Suddenly the shit knits itself together again. Fucking crazy game. 🪷
[Verse 1]
Kids dressed up like Mormons, not sure if it's irony
Double Casamigos hiding in the balcony
Send me your location, I'll send you a selfie
Babe, this dream I had, it feels like it might ruin me
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone's acting like it's so cool
Everyone's saying this is so you, ooh
[Chorus]
There has to be a better shit to give a shit about
Instead of wondering what people think about me now
The things that I don't know could fill a million fucking houses
I never learned to dance
[Verse 2]
Buying weed on Wilshire, sexting with my therapist
Making beats with randos, starting to gеt arrogant
They're like, "Boy, you got connеctions now
You're really fucking doing it" Oh, come on!
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone's acting like it's so cool
Everyone's saying this is so you, ooh
[Chorus]
There has to be a better shit to give a shit about
Instead of wondering what people think about me now
The things that I don't know could fill a million fucking houses
I never learned to dance, I never learned to dance
I never learned to dance, yeah
thank you
Bro thank you, I thought the first line was kids dressed up like womans. Really turned me off the artist, but the song had such a good vibe. Everyone is entitled to their beliefs but i can't get down with an artist who opens a song swinging at a culture war. i just wanna jam
My guy. Lord have mercy. I wasn’t prepared for this. That was truly remarkable. At this moment I don’t know any of your stuff outside this song, but whatever it is you’re doing, keep that soul lit brother.
Please put this version on every platform. I love it and listen to it everyday. You have a beautiful mind, and you deserve the best parts of this world. Stay true, stay strong.
Seriously - I would listen every day no doubt, I keep coming back to RUclips for it
i dont care if you get youtube premium or not, but if you do you can download videos and thats what i did. listen to it everyday on my walk to work. can turn your screen off too while the video plays
I would love to walk past someone and hear them listening to this... u would be late to work cause we'd stop to talk about it
@@mug1222I think about this constantly. Unfortunately no one I know has the same taste in music
I can’t quit listening to this. I literally can’t quit.
I could tell within milliseconds what I was about to experience just based off the tone. This is purely indescribable
As a human who gets affixed to certain songs, certain messages, certain rhythms, so on and so forth, this song has so much for me personally. Reminds me of my ex, River, first of all. Now, I’m across the country. Moved to Cali to get away from it all, truth be told. The alcoholism. The weather he speaks of. The wrecklessness. And now that it has been a couple of years, I still miss her, knowing that I’d go back to Florida of all states if she only wanted me to be there. Speaks so much of how us humans move and migrate. Out of tune. Unsure of where we belong. Unsure of who to serve here in this reality. Started dating someone afterwards for a few months. And I would’ve stayed there in Jax if I felt like I should have. But I listened to my heart, moved here to Cali, and I married my one true love. Someone who will help me carry this burden of everything through the rest of this existence. Doing all the things. Keeping light. Sharing light.
There hasn’t been a song that’s made me feel something like this in a long time. Never heard of this artist but I have a feeling this is about to be one of my favorite bands of all time
I don't know how this came up in my feed, but damn. You just ripped my heart out, dude. Much respect and love to you.
Glad I'm not the only one getting crazy songs on there feed, I definitely like it bur it was seeming weird
Same here.
Finally youtube doing something right
Same man. Same.
This is ten times better than the version on Spotify, just my opinion!
This is just so pure. Raw, emotional, and moving. A stunning performance captured in time. This is the absolute definition of art- so much more than just about the music. It feels like you managed to capture years of experience and bottle it, then share it with all of us in 4 awe-inspiring minutes. Incredible work!
This is the power of real music. Thank you for sharing. I listen to this and think … I get it, enough said. Just keep doing it.
I love this so much more than the Spotify version, so much emotion
He doesn’t need this live version on Spotify/apple/etc. They need it… Phenomenal! I wish I found it yesterday…
I dont think I've stopped repeating this song since I found it a couple days ago. So damn good, totally agree with everyone, it really is so RAW and Emotional and just a really amazing performance! Such a rare talent to be able to perform with that passion, just insanely inspiring! Thanks for putting your music out man!! Really hits me on a personal level. so thank you so much!
Same
the guitar tone is so clean oh my
Love seeing a more stripped down version go hard, def bring this vibe to your future albums.
First time listener here, had to pause the song and embrace my goosebumps... Now I'm going to restart this song
Man this just rips right through me, I can't even really describe why. Raw expression of emotion just pours right out. Incredible. Also, i want that guitar.
Saw this guy at Willawaw in Anchorage randomly a few years ago. He also puts on an amazing live show. Hope you guys get the chance to see him live.
This is actually genius. I can feel every word you sing.
This is the perfect song to cry to. Though I think I've moved on from crying to straight up wailing. The pain is just so palpable and relatable. He says so much in so few words. This performance is so beautifully stripped down and emotional. I cant stop listening. Its constantly stuck in my head. A truly moving song and performance. Thank you from the bottom of my sad, lonely, burnt out heart.
If it makes u feel any better I’ve been crying all day to this
If you wanna ugly cry go listen to ComeOnBack a few times til it hits.
You don’t understand the grip this song has on me, explains my life pretty clearly. Thanks bro, appreciate the anthem.
Beautifully written, well executed. Claps to you my friend. 🎉
“Sextin’ with my therapist” I lol’d but the dysfunction and humor this song accurately portrays at the things we go through in life, the things we find ourselves wrapped up in..wow. It caught me in the throat, that line, lol.
Very well said🙌🙌
It reads to me like "flirting with the idea of getting better while simultaneously undermining it"
Man, just fantastic. Thank you.
Has to be one of the best live songs of all time 🤙🏻
Super humbled to have randomly found this song when I was going thru a manic depressive episode. Was really cool to listen to and calmed me down. Listened on repeat🤙
Music is true peace 🙏🙏
Neurodivergent gang 🤪🤘
What is it about bipolar that makes you repeat songs a lot, sometimes in a row. Like I guess I want to stay in that music and feel it longer than the song is. I guess probably nothing to do with bipolar but I am too so I related with you on that.
@@derdoktor206 I’m bipolar and that’s definitely where my relation with the lyrics comes from. The hyper-fixation of repeating songs comes from my adhd though for sure
Duuuuuudeeee.... this is a gem. 🫀
Wow I needed this. I thought songs like this were lost. Sometimes things like this aren’t meant to be shared. When I first heard this I thought yeah this one’s for me lol.
Find any new stuff you can share since!?
you got something here! keep it up!
Cannot. Stop. Watching.
Just discovered this song this morning and listened to it three times in a row. I think it might be on respect the rest of the day too. Wow this guy is talented.
This is an underrated gem. Incredible song 🙏🏻
Coming back to update: month later and this is still a fucking masterpiece. Song hasn’t left my head since I heard it. Emotional as fuck. Well done.
🎙️🎸👏
I have recently discovered the music of these two great artists... Cece Coakley and of course the Medium Build... To say that I am simply impressed with their work is even an understatement... Just Great!
🎙️🎸👏
"...better shit to give a shit about..."
Right?!?!
This song is perfect.
I found this a few hours ago on Tik Tok and I cannot stop listening. Literally going through your whole discography now. It's so rare to find an artist where you listen to the lyrics and feel like they've taken thoughts straight from your head and poured them into something so beautiful in a way you never could. I feel your music in my soul dude, you're incredible.
Came here straight from TikTok 😂 what an app
I totally agree. It feels like he's in my head. Another guy that gives me the same feels is Brandon Heart.
This is so raw and beautiful. Absolutely my favorite MB moments are just you with your guitar, emotions, and vocals. ❤
I’ve been writing and playing my whole life……. Somehow we’re doing very similar things …. and seem to feel the same …… thank you ! From Iowa
You did it again Nick. Another great song! 👏🏻
Your vocals are so raw and genuine. I love you🥹❤️
This is so fucking good
been ahile since i got the chills from a new song,......thank you.
Had me with that first chord progression. This is beautiful. Such a haunting voice. Love it dude.
This guy, just found him, and he keeps blowing me away. Incredible stuff, man!!!! Honest, raw, sincere, perfect meodies., etc etc.
Do you have chords/tabs for this dude?
Absolutely killer song.. 👍
@Sam McCoy do you know what tuning this is in? I can't figure it out for the life of me😢
Would love to know if you figured it out!
I think they're tuned a half step down with a Capo on the fifth fret.
In standard tuning, Capo on 4 - E minor, D (shaped like C chord), C, slide back down to D chord shaped like C chord
I have watched this so many times.
I can't stop coming back to this
Dude, i just instatly fall in love with your music, like, i dont understand how i cant find you before …. Instatly buy a tickets for Amsterdam show, even if me & my wife go to travel half europe for you ❤️
I'm in love with this. How beautiful
You don’t even know how much you help people.
Ive never felt so connected with a song. It hurts but at the same time I love it so much. Still makes me cry when i listen to it alone in the car and sing along. Thank you for this.
The guitar playing in this version is so cool. I'm getting a capo. Really inspiring arrangement and it's so paired down and raw and also so rich and soulful.
We’re u able to figure out the chords ?
What guitar is he playing?

Seventh listen since this popped up in my feed this morning.
Amazing writing style and energy that didn’t feel fabricated at all. Actual art from this one ☝️
I. Just here before his fame gets out of hand. 1 in a billion unique level, such good lungs ... style and all of it .
Just stumbled across this song, I might have already played it 50 times already. love it.
This particular version eats at me in a way that isn't normal feeling
i like it , he is honest. someone who does not fit into mainstream constantly confronted with mainstream
Some David Bazan and Jim James vibes. Love it, thank you!
Wow. Artists like you are few and far between - unique, passionate, simple in the best way. All you need is your voice and the guitar.
"Has to be better shit to give a shit about"
About sums it up
Amazing tune. Thank you
You've deeply contributed to another artists catalogue of beauty and inspiration with this song. At very least, a deep stitch in the tapestry of creative contribution. This moves me.
Dude what the f*ck... I can't stop listening to this song for a week now. So. damn. good. 👏
Just found this and it’s been on repeat! Bless up brother!
The songs good but it's the vid for me man looks authentic
just heard this for the first time….wow…..his expressions, his feel, it’s just so real and heartfelt what he’s playing ❤
The magic 1 man, 1 guitar & emotions create ❤
Had to listen to it again.. right after the first time. That one hits.
Your voice and words always hit me right in the pit of my heart, got me through too many bad days. I'm plugging along and doing my best, I hope you are too. Much, much love to you from Texas.
We got your back brother
I love the way he wrote this song and told a story
Damn!! So raw and powerful. Why can’t recordings like these be pushed and promoted to the mainstream. Amazing
Love your music man keep it going I’ll support ya you got my attention forsure
Didn't kms today, thank you
Don't ever. Life is too short already. Life can suck but try to find the joy in it ❤
I hope whoever you are, you’re still here. Stay stronh
Guitar tuned down half tone capo'd at 5 in this vid. Actual chords in normal tuning sans capo:
G#m F# Emaj7 on the verse.
pre chorus - "Everyones acting..."
A, G#, B when he goes "oh" at the end.
Chorus
E, B, goes to A on "houses"
Good man
What is the tab with capo and dropped half step down. Thanks
Everything from the vocals, instrument, colors and visual is beautiful!
this sound so much R.E.M "esque"
but with your own twist
edit: after 2 month of daily listening to Medium Build.
I can now say that I couldn't have been farther away from the truth , he " medium build " sounds like " medium build ".
I love your vibe man !
This should be the version you are sending people to download everywhere. Your songs are always better this way. It's actually wild.
These "naked version" are so heartfelt and straight to the core. Hugs from Italy.
I’m actually speechless
This song definitely hits home... So relatable
Oh I love this so much
I love Medium Build..! This song speaks to me on so many levels.. thank you.
You won’t see this but my wife and I love this. Sending love from California. ❤
this is beautiful
Unreal…. I love home commanding you are is such a raw setting. 10/10. What a song!
I can't even express how much I love your music. I just found it a few days ago, and I can't stop listening. I'm a musician myself, bass player. I swear I would drop everything and move to whatever state you're in just to jam. Your style and writing is infectious to me. Please keep it up
This live video is absolutely fire 🔥🔥🔥
This song makes me weep
This is so veddy goooood!
Im hooked on all the live performances.
Congratulations on a wonderfully inspiring, beautiful performance!
Shared this with everyone I know that likes this kinda shit, they're all bumping it here in South Africa
Don’t give up on learning to dance. Happy I listened.
Dealing with extreme gear envy, oh yeah cool song. Great stuff!
idk how ty finds me more to sooth my heart ache 💔
