    The audio is from a live concert where the crowd joined together to sing instead of the main singer.
    gave me chills so I decided, why not let everyone else hear this? so here it is.

    Something about a whole crowd of people happily, joyfully singing a song about wanting to die- maybe even holding each other's hands during the chorus- makes me want to cry in a good way

    The crowd is singing in harmony, they sound so good actually. It both gives you chills and makes you feel comforted that so many people feel these lyrics

    god now that ive heard it... these lyrics are beautifully haunting and about discord and hate between two people and now they've been turned into something with joy and laughter and clapping and harmony behind them somehow....... so good

    I have yet to find another song as angry and vindictive as No Children. It's real anger and resentment that's built up, everyone can find a piece of themselves in it because we've all been there, I think that's why this version of the song is so beautiful, a song about resentment bringing people together. Because in the end, tragedy really does bring us together

    There's so much to love in this audio clip. The way people start to clap on beat. John lost his voice, which is why you can only really hear the crowd, but you can still hear him weakly bleat out a couple of lines. The rising volume on everyone's favorite part (you'd stay the hell out of my way-hand in unlovable hand). In a lot of live versions, John changes the last line to "I hope we all die" and you can hear some people in the crowd anticipate that and incorporate it into their own singing.
    I've seen the Mountain Goats live a few times. No Children and This Year always bring the house down.

    idk i think the song hits for people who have been in toxic relationships or grew up in an unstable household like. with divorce or domestic abuse or whatever. so i think hearing everyone sing this together and why it gives me chills is because it's a gathering of people who survived. people who are angry and grieving, but alive. the ppl at this concert are surrounded by ppl with the same grief and anger and they are safe together ykwim. this sounds like healing to me. this is everyone seeing themselves in strangers and doing the most human thing there is to do about it: make music. the same reason there are war songs and sea shanties and nursery rhymes about the plague. does this make sense

    People are so beautiful. Look, we all know this bitter, bitter song about stagnation and isolation. Look, let's all sing it and smile and cheer because everyone here knows the feeling and love the song. Let's scream in joy. Look at the hurt we have felt and overcome.

    While everybody singing together is already wholesome, I love that you can just barely make out the person recording the audio quietly singing to themself at certain parts as well, especially around 1:50 and 2:14

    ough this is beautiful. the clapping during the silence just to fill the air. everyone singing such a dark song with such jubilation. the way all of the united clapping stops at the end just to give way to uproarious cheering. this is what life is for

    Man this gave me goosebumps. In a way it reminds me of a sea shanty like Wellerman or Santiana. Songs that can have dark or sad lyrics but we sing our hearts out to in joy. The entire time I listened to this i could hear the smiles in these voices, it's really magical.

    I'm sorry for anyone feeling this song a little too much right now. Have some lyrics to sing along with that crowd:
    I hope that our few remaining friends
    Give up on trying to save us
    I hope we come up with a fail-safe plot
    To piss off the dumb few that forgave us
    I hope the fences we mended
    Fall down beneath their own weight
    And I hope we hang on past the last exit
    I hope it's already too late
    And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
    Someday burns down
    And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
    And I never come back to this town again
    In my life, I hope I lie
    And tell everyone you were a good wife
    And I hope you die
    I hope we both die
    I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow
    I hope it bleeds all day long
    Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises
    We're pretty sure they're all wrong
    I hope it stays dark forever
    I hope the worst isn't over
    And I hope you blink before I do
    I hope I never get sober
    And I hope when you think of me years down the line
    You can't find one good thing to say
    And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out
    You'd stay the hell out of my way
    I am drowning
    There is no sign of land
    You are coming down with me
    Hand in unlovable hand
    And I hope you die
    I hope we both die
