      I feel you on a physical level, when I first listen to this song I didnt get it because the video speed it up so it kinda felt like fast mumbling but when I listened to the regular version I was just stunned, I felt like what he was portraying and I though he was speaking to me, it's odd isnt it?

    this song makes me cry so hard
    a few days ago, I saw my favorite(and frankly only)friend walk into the bathroom after class. I actually went to quickly talk to him (he is transgender but the school makes him use the girl's bathroom, and I had to go to the bathroom too) since we don't have any classes together. I ran in after him, and when I walked in, my world crashed down. He had one leg swung out the open window, getting ready to jump. It was two stories, he wouldn't even die. I grabbed him, wrapping my arms around his torso and dragging him back. I screamed for help, while he kicked and struggled. I don't know where in my weak body that strength came from, but I guess it was adrenaline. A teacher came running, and called the police and my friend's parents. The teacher shut and locked the windows and told me to watch my friend while the she ran to get help. After she was gone, my friend cried and pushed me over. He screamed at me, "What the hell? Why did you do that? Do you not want me to be happy? Fuck you! I thought you wanted me to be happy! I hate you!"
    The rest of it is kinda fuzzy. All I know is that he is in a mental hospital somewhere, and that I'm not allowed to know. I also know he will never come back to school, and that we'll probably never meet again. I was in a state of shock for a while.
    The lyrics "So hug all your friends and let them know, you're not letting go. No, I won't let go." always makes me cry. In that moment, I didn't know I was crying. I didn't feel my legs and arms being hit repeatedly, all I knew in that moment was "don't let go, don't let go, don't let go..."
    And now I am left with bruises, an aching heart, and the nagging feeling that I could've have done something sooner. I knew he was depressed, but I never knew what to do. And now guilt is eating away at me. I miss him a lot.
    But it also brings about some kind of weird fuzzy feeling. You voice and playing go so well together, and even with a song that is kinda dark like this one, it feels so welcoming and friendly. Cavetown, this song is my home.

    • @drewmungus5841
      @drewmungus5841 6 лет назад +173

      You did the right thing. Having suicidal friends can be really hard, because you want so badly to save them when they don’t want to be saved. It’s really hard. I’m a trans guy myself, and I would’ve really appreciated if someone had done that for me. Even if he isn’t thankful now, even if you never see him again, you’ve helped someone have a chance to have a full, wonderful life.

      I will promise you that you did something good and you saved someone, and im sure that one day they will thank you, even if its not in real life, but of its in your heart. You are a good person. ❤

    this song makes me cry every time I listen to it. my best friend has tried to commit suicide three times. she doesn’t realize how much she means to me, if she wasn’t here, I wouldn’t be here either. sometimes I just go up to her and give her the biggest hug because of this song because of how much I love her and how much she means to me. she’s getting better, and hasn’t committed or self harmed in a while. thank you.

    hey so here's a story. I have Bluetooth earphones and I was sitting on the tube and I decided to jam out to this song. So I got my phone out and put it on (just as I arrived at the station). i walked out right into the middle of a busy London station and I couldn't figure out why I couldn't hear the music; so I turned up the volume to full but I could only hear it really quietly. i decided I'd figure it out later and rushed off to my next train. A few minutes later, I tried to figure out what was wrong with my headphones. I soon realised that my Bluetooth was switched off, and I had played this whole song on my iPhone speaker at full volume. In the middle of a London station and on a tube. U can tell it's a damn good song, because I didn't get punched in the face.

    I’m in 11th grade now and a lovely girl brought her ukulele to school and was playing this song (just the chords) and I had a huge flashback to when I listened to this song when I needed love
    Now my best friend is hurting and I’m able to send this to him. That’s huge Robbie and that means the world to me

    Hi, yo I'm Christine and I smell things and hear colours when I listen to music or certain things. It's called Synesthesia and it's pretty cool. Your voice is like a pale green and it smells like citrus, which is pretty cool. I like your music a lot and it's very relaxing, along with the lyrics to most of your songs being either relatable or sad or upbeat and I love that. You're pretty cool!

    I see this song kinda differently I guess. My best friend passed away in 2016, she committed suicide. To me this song reminds me to hug my friends because you never know what could come next. It reminds me to always appreciate the people in my life and make sure they know I'm there for them. I never want what happened before to happen again.
    So to everyone out there reading this remeber to give the people in your life a hug, you never know how much they need it, or what such a simple gesture can do. Maybe you'll save a life.

      -Mary- I’m so so sorry for your loss, I had a friend who tried.. not too long ago. I known her for about 5 years at the time. We weren’t close but I liked her, she meant the world to me. She started texting me telling me it wasn’t worth it, all that Jazz. And then she started apologizing. I started freaking out, and it didn’t help I was in the middle of Walmart. I didn’t know what to do, it was scary. A hour later she texted me again, she tried to overdose. But her mom walked in on her and took her to the hospital. Ive has a couple of friends who have been suicidal. Heck I myself have been. So I’m really sorry for your loss, it’s hard. But I hope your doing well now,

    My friend is aro, and she gets really sad about it sometimes. She said she feels like she is missing out on everyone and everything. She feels like she has no love inside her anywhere, and she is often shy and secluded and I am her only friend. So I did a piano cover of this song, (I can sing pretty well) and I sent it to her when she was feeling down. Just the simple few lines ”lifes to short to worry about things we did wrong so hug all your friends, and let them know you're not letting go” meant so, so much to her. She's a happier person, and she is feeling so much better about being herself. She learned the harmony parts, so we sing together. ❤️

    Probably because it makes you cry of how beautiful it is. It’s really funny because right after I listened to this song I went to school listening to it again and, well I cried again. My friend Quinn noticed and he hugged me. Want to know why? Because when he was sitting next to me, he could hear the song in my headphones. So do what the song says and hug all your friends!

    So during the summer, my best friend and I have a 1-week sleepover, but this time, since her parents were out of town she was allowed to stay for 2 weeks. And during those weeks, our other friends and my cousions came over. Anyways, after she left, I was lonely and sad and this song came up and I felt it perfectly described my situation.
    "Whats it like to be alone on a Sunday? Remembering the times, you saw them just yesterday" She left on Saturday, and Sunday I was just overwhelmingly sad.
    "Sing me a song, tell me your thoughts, I could listen to you all night long. I don't care about my sleeping routine, I fucked it up as it is, but we've got so much time to kill and so many things to see" At night we would just lie in bed talking for hours, making up stories. I threw off my sleeping schedule, going to bed at 4 a.m. and waking up at 9 a.m.
    "Remember when we felt like animations, and didn't need A grades for self validation. Tell me about the things that you love, the world simply needs more affection 'cause" I remember when we met in the 4th grade, everything was about t.v shows and worrying if our crushes didn't like us back; now were are so stressed out from high school, and worried about if were going to raped and killed in the streets. Everything revolves around grades and intelligence, I want to go back to when we were younger.
    "You don't know what it's like to be nothing at all. When the night turns cold my thoughts feel like stone, and it's nothing I can't change, but I can't breathe anymore I forgot how to walk by myself, I could do with a little more of your help" I have from anxiety and depression, and after years of knowing and suffering alone, I finally reached out to my best friends for help, slowly I am getting better. I am glad I have the friends I do.
    This comment was stupidly long, but I just wanted to get it out there. I love your music Robbie, I think it's amazing, and it's great how much I can relate to your songs.

      Our parents allowed us to have another week long sleepover for winter break and she just left a few minutes ago.
      Recently I moved away and now we dont see each other ever day at school. Its sunday today and ive come back again to listen to this song.
      During break i met with some other close friends and _god I miss them so much._ Things have been going wrong recently and it is so hard just to keep living, I want to end it all so much. The only thing keeping me going is my friends, their support and love is one of the only reasons im still alive.
      I still relate to this song, more in fact, than i did before. My depression and anxiety is getting worse, but ill be okay as long as my friends are here.
      Again, this is pointlessly long, its stupid, I know, I just wanted to get this out. Hug all your friends, and let them know youre not letting go.

      Hey yall, its me again. Nobody is reading this, i know, but I just wanted to update.
      Another summer, another sleepover. I am alone again, feeling pensive and a little melancholy, but its okay.
      My friend stayed for a week again, and I also had a new friend sleepover, the new one is from my new school. Their sleepovers were back to back, they crossed over in fact, so one of my best friend met another best friend for the first time.
      I think we had fun, I cant really tell. I had fun but I am so worried i messed up and they didnt enjoy it, but I am looking for the positives, so i am going to believe that they did
      School is starting again soon, and were getting older, ive been taking college classes all summer and so have my friends. I am grateful for the opportunities but i wish we had the chance to be kids. Worried about school, worried about the future, but ive got my people with me, and theyll always be by my side.
      My anxiety is getting worse, and my depression is still here, but ill be okay. Im still holding on, ive still got my friends. Im here and Ill stay here.
      Thats all for now guys, im sleep deprived and lonely, but ive made so many memories, and ive had so much fun. Turns out life isnt so bad, after all.
      Hug all your friends please, you never know what you might mean to them.

      Gaby L hey, you’ve got at least one person still here reading this. It’s sweet, and I hope you and your friends are all doing well! Friends will always matter, and it’s good to have people in your life that make memories with you! Enjoy the sleepovers with friends, it’s tougher to make time for that in the future, and in some ways it’s easier than ever, but never forget to make the most of every second!

    HEY YOU PRECIOUS PERSON SCROLLING IN THE COMMENTS, if you're hurting right now, and coming to the song for a peaceful state of mind you've come to the right place. Also know if you feel you need it, don't be afraid to get help. I'll virtually hug you if you need it. I'll be your friend if you need it! I'LL HUG YOU. This song kind makes me wanna cry cause in the mind of a person who can relate as the person who needs a hug, I know how it feels so here's a hug *hug*.

    I'm so happy you posted this song in particular, it made me feel comforted when I was alone at three am, fretting over why I was so depressed. "I won't let go" It was a call to arms for me. A declaration that I could keep pulling through. Every message that every line of these lyrics makes me so ready to live that i could cry. I have to say, Robin, I love you very much for helping me. Thank you so very much for this song.

One night I was scrolling through RUclips and found this video and watched it. I later subscribed. You helped me through all of the hard times with everything; you're funny, smart and amazingly talented. I know you will and already have done really well for yourself and I was here with you from the beginning. Thank you

    LYRICS:
    what’s it like to be alone on a sunday?
    remembering the time, you saw them just yesterday
    sing me a song, tell me your thoughts
    i could listen to you all night long
    and i don’t care about my sleeping routine
    i fucked it up at it is,
    but we’ve got so much time to kill
    tonight rocks me to sleep
    life’s too short, to worry about things we got wrong
    so hug all your friends,
    let them know you’re not letting go
    no i won’t let go
    remember when we felt like animation?
    didn’t need A grades, for self validation
    tell me about the things that you love
    the world simply needs more affection cause
    i don’t care about what people think of me
    i’m fucked up as it is, but we’ve got so much time to kill and so many things to see
    life’s too short to worry about things that we’ve got wrong
    so hug all your friends, let them know you’re not letting go,
    no i won’t let go
    you don’t know what it’s like to be nothings at all,
    when the night turns cold and my heart feels like stone
    and it’s nothing i can’t change but i can’t breathe anymore
    i forgot how to walk by myself
    i could do with a little more of your help
    life’s too short to worry about things that we got wrong
    so hug all your friends
    let them know you’re not letting go
    i am not letting go
    life’s too short to worry about things that we got wrong
    so hug all your friends
    let them know you’re not letting go
    no i won’t let go

    Thanks for this - I lost my two best friends last summer and I've spent all of this year trying to make new friends.
    But as high school is, I haven't succeeded. I've been thinking lately how much I need someone next to me, someone to talk and laugh with, someone to hug.
    This song feels like a hug, the kind of hug that is like a warm sweater on a cold winter's day.
    I really appreciate this. I needed this. Thank you, friend.
    I will listen to this when I feel the need for a hug, which is quite often. I'll memorize this and sing it when I need it. You are a truly inspirational human.
    Thank you.

    *TRIGGER WARNING*
    When I stared listening to you I was in abusive relationships where ever I went. home was a mess and at school my friends were horrible; casually homophobic, making fun of my weight, always making sure to leave me out of things, and overall just mean to me. The lyric "hug all your friends" just didn't make sense. My friends didn't even want me to touch them let alone hug them.
    I was close to taking my own life. In fact, I tried. I was sent to the hospital for a week where I met my current best friend.
    Listening to your older music made me remember how we met and this song in particular now makes sense to me.
    Love you Oli.

    I discovered this song while I was sleeping, it came on itself as I was watching dodie videos before. I’ve been in the darkest place for the past few years and I’m at my worst point right now, I somehow woke up when your song was playing and it was so soothing I didn’t felt such a calm feeling in a long long time it made me cry so much as I didn’t thought I could ever feel like that ever again. Thank you so much, you convey emotions like no others.

We have anxiety,depression,confusion,family problems, and we are there for each other every step of the way. I've been playing uku for a year now and I love poetry and this summer I'm going to sit down and try to make a song out of a piece that I wrote my freshmen year which was a difficult year for me and reading it now as a sophomore I can see how I've changed since I wrote it.

My mom asked my teachers to notify her if I tried to use a different name. My school counsiler outed me after I told my band director. My science teacher told me about the gsa. I went a few times but the kids there were stuck up and obbsessed with theirselves. Eventually, I got my best friend back (my phone too but thats not as important). Its getting better but i've still got a long way to go and am still only 16. I wish I were an adult so I could be completely independent.

    I know I'm probably late to this, but my friend Jess was on the phone with me and she told me that she wouldn't be around if I hadn't met her. I asked what she had meant and she said that in the 1st grade(the year we met) she was going to hang herself cuz of her abusive dad, and then she met me and I had provided a source of light in her life.

      @@notafailure2138 update, when school started back, we became friends again, but it didn't feel the same, we drifted apart and now we both ignore the others existence, not out of hatred, but to not get reattached. We didn't work out as friends, but while we were friends, it was nice.

    hi so i normally don't comment on things in fear of sounding stupid, but i really really really REALLY resonate with the lyrics of this song and you sure as heck play and sing it beautifully. it's the best thing i've ever heard in my life. you're probably not going to see this, but if you do- i want you to know how much you've impacted my life despite me not knowing you personally or you not even knowing me at all. but, robin; dude, watching your videos and listening to you play your uke or guitar or talk about your adorable chameleon-- that's the highlight of my day everytime i sit down to watch your videos. like, honestly- i can't explain how much you mean to me, let alonehow much this wonderful song means to me... let alone how much ALL your songs and covers mean to me.. seriously, keep being your awesome self and i swear it: you'll continue making people like me or even people not like me or even animals like my dog luke skybarker happy beyond our ability to be happy. (seriously my dog smiles and is so calm and relaxed whenever i'm jammin out to your music and he's layin round the house) this doesn't make sense but it's almost two a.m. forgive me ha.. thank you cavetown

    Why can't I like this more than once?? Your voice is breathtaking, the soul you sing with cute and adorable and very moving. I wanna cry but I'm smiling . I appreciate this so much...It's like the gentleness of your voice slowly wraps around you in the melody and seeps through you tangling your heart and moving you in ways you've never been moved before. I only just discovered you today from your Slowtown cover and then found out you make original songs too and this was my first. Honestly, I was blown away. So blown away that I just got addicted and couldn't stop listening. I've had it on a loop for about and hour and a half now. Listening to it now actually. Thank you! Thank you for sharing your talent, your music and your great and adorable personality! Thank you!

    [Verse 1]
    What's it like to be alone on a Sunday
    Remembering the time you saw them just yesterday?
    Sing me a song, tell me your thoughts
    I could listen to you all night long
    [Pre-Chorus]
    And I don't care about my sleeping routine
    I fucked it up as it is but we've got so much time to kill
    As the night rocks me to sleep
    [Chorus]
    Life's too short to worry about things that we got wrong
    So hug all your friends and let them know
    You're not letting go
    No I won't let go, oh-oh
    Oh, oh oh
    Woah oh oh oh, oh oh-oh oh...
    [Verse 2]
    Remember when we felt like animations
    And didn't need A grades for self-validation?
    Tell me about the things that you love
    The world simply needs more affection 'cause
    [Pre-Chorus]
    I don't care about what people think of me
    I'm fucked up as it is but we've got so much time to kill
    And so many things to see
    [Chorus]
    Life's too short to worry about things that we got wrong
    So hug all your friends and let them know
    You're not letting go
    No, I won't let go
    [Bridge]
    You don't know what it's like to be nothing at all
    When the night turns cold, my thoughts feel like stone
    And it's nothing I can't change, but I can't breathe anymore
    I forgot how to walk by myself
    I could do with a little more of your help
    [Chorus]
    Life's too short to worry about things that we got wrong
    So hug all your friends and let them know
    You're not letting go
    I'm not letting go
    Life's too short to worry about things that we got wrong
    So hug all your friends and let them know
    You're not letting go
    No, I won't let go, oh-oh

    not long ago i had a good many friends. i had gotten used to it and very dependent on it. recently, i've drifted away from most of them. i find myself only seeing three or less people that really like to be around me. i am very grateful for the people left, but i am very sad that i couldn't just keep those other people in my life. it's gotten to a point where my friends left are concerned for me because they fear i may do something bad. this song means a lot to me right now. i need to appreciate what i have while i have it.

Sometimes I'm afriad that I'll lose my current friends and that they will drift away, and I tend to be attached. I know that it happens but the thought of it doesn't hurt any less. But I'm trying to stay positive and not to think about it too much. Well, here's a story from a stranger to go with your story in this comment chain.

She was my world and person to turn to for the past few years and we're really close but since school started shes been too busy to talk. I understand but I just miss her. this reminded me of all the great times weve had.

    i don't know but i feel like i'm generally a low maintenance friendship kinda gal, but regardless to that i love my friends so much, and sometimes i feel like they don't know that- i had this argument a while back with one of my best friends where she told me i don't put in any effort to go see her, which i agreed with to be fair, but it upset me that we were different in that way, and i felt really bad
    anyway
    the entirety of this song, especially the chorus really remind of this- because i do feel like my friends often think i don't care that much of that i'm letting them go, or can't be bothered to keep them- but this song gives me i guess the faith in myself to make them believe i do care about them and do love them, despite how it often seems i might not.
    i want to change is what i'm saying, and this song makes me believe that i can

I've lost a lot this year, I've attempted suicide more than twice, and I've been disowned by my parents for being trans non binary. I wasn't done being young. Your music feels like a warm hug after a long day of exhaustion, and I always tear up eventually. I'm only sixteen, I feel like I deserved to be a little happy. And your music kept me alive. I have some wonderful friends who held me through the darkest of days. I rarely write comments, but I felt compelled to do so because today was especially tough, and I miss my friends. This will probably be my last Christmas, and I simply wanted to thank you for your music ♡

Year 9 rolled around, and he just got worse, my good friend who i will not name but just 'S', he kept flooring S and kicking him. he made him hurt for the rest of the day and didn't care, he would do it before school, break and lunch! i couldn't do anything because i knew he'd say it's just a joke...i didn't want people to think S was a soft kid so they'd hurt him too...i felt useless...so...far...from justice...Then one day, he floored S. got a group to kick him. and did this 3 times when S tried to get up. so finally i screamed: 'STOP IT! HE'S NOT SOME PUNCHING BAG!' and they stopped. the group went off but he continued. S fought back then walked away, my 'friend' started acting as if S did it to HIM! i was mortified by his behavior and i...i had, had enough! he talked about how he 'cried' over the weekend, i knew this wasn't true because he was streaming games all weekend. he was attention seeking as he always did to get me on his side. so i asked him questions like 'why were you crying?' he said it was private and i knew this was attention seeking cos why would he tell me he's crying if it's private? anyway so he told me to shut up...that. was. it. i screamed: 'Well i'll say this! you have some nerve trying to shut me up! i have human rights and so does S! WHY DON'T YOU JUST...JUST STOP! YOU ACT LIKE YOU'RE THE VICTIM WHEN HE WAS THE ONE BEING ABUSED BY YOUR ACTIONS!!!!!! HE GETS IT EVERY F*****G DAY! JUST STOP!' and walked away. i feel good i did this. because now S is happy my 'friend' is keeping a distance. i know this may not be important...but thank you if you read this.

    I was at your brighton show and before you played this, you said "if you have a friend with you, give them a hug" but i was alone and a random girl said she would hug me and that made me happy

    i discovered this song when one of my closest friends was in the hospital because of a heart problem, you can’t imagine how much it helped me, listening to it again brings back so many feelings, thank you so much for doing such beautiful music. ❤️

    A year ago I put the lyrics to this song on my wall, right next to my desk. When I'm feeling lonely or overwhelmed, I look the words over and recite the song in my head. Not only has Robbie gotten me through some extraordinarily rough seasons in my high school career, but his song has made me realize that I am special. I care about people way more than I should, and I have two friends who show the same amount of love toward me, which I feel extremely lucky for. This song helps me realize that I am loved, that there are incredible people who will fit right with you even when the world seems to be so negative, and that my life is not all about me. These lyrics just make me so warm. Thank you so much Robbie ily ;^;
