MY GOD! I discovered your music yesterday. I have probably listened to this song 20 times ! The heart and soul that bleeds out of your music is nothing short of amazing. When you can capture emotion like that and make your listeners feel as if they were in those shoes is special. I see great things coming for you. Keep on doing what you do! I'm sold
Occasionally I'll find a song and have to stop everything I'm doing and start it over close my eyes listen. This is one of the best things I've ever heard.
Ive literally just listened to it 20 times at least, i have trouble remembering song lyrics when im playing guitar, so im trying to make sure i get them all right, when i sing along i can get em all but when im sitting alone playing and trying to sing i have trouble. I only sing when im alone but last night i was outside playing and my neighbor came out and listened then quietly clapped when i was going back inside, so i ask if i was bothering her she said no i heard and came out listening was relaxing. In my head im thinking "are you f**ing with me?!!" Your songs are a extremely absorbing and relatable for me, dark times man and everyone(song) helps, sometimes its so hard to get that and even a tiny boost for me can make a huge difference during hard times. So Thank you.
No lie!! I listen to this song every morning on my way to and from work. Ever since discovering it about 2 months ago. Love your style and lyrically abilities. I hope you blow all the way up my man!! Keep ‘em coming
Love the music - the songs are great, and your voice is full of depth and soul. I've seen many of the reaction videos and while they all focus (rightly) on the power of your song, nobody mentions the guitar tone! I've heard and recorded more acoustic guitars than any person should be exposed to, and the tone of your slope shoulder is one of the best I've heard - I know that tone is not just the wood and stings, but the fingers that play them. Keep making great music and good luck on the Tiny Desk!
Man.... Ever since I heard this song the first time.... It just keeps coming back to me and I catch myself screaming along with you because..... this song was my childhood!
Not sure if I commented, but i had a few tonight and yet again feel the need to say, You my good sir are awesome. I am so happy you exist and are singing this real raw music. Even my girl who complains about listening to country sings along. I hope you come down to your neighbors in NC.
found your music last month. i have had a hard time turning it off. Your music speaks to so many silent people. This song has helped me get through so many of my emotions when it comes to experiencing a similar upbringing. Cant wait to see you live!
Brother, I’ve been preforming this song in my living room for the past 2 months and listening to it constantly. We don’t deserve this kind of music. You were born to have a tiny desk set 😝
This is one of the most powerful, evocative, and vulnerable pieces of music I've heard. It's beautiful and haunting, and I can't help but weep every time I listen. I hope Tiny Desk recognizes it and I get to listen to more. Thank you so much for this...
This is so beautiful and painfully real at the same time. Mine may be a different story but the same emotions. "I'm tired of being nice I just don't have it inside me I can't take much more shit from you."
Greatness....most talented genuine person I've ever seen perform a song. I'm 36 years old and if I hadn't been through or related to your lyrics, and had no clue about the struggle, watching and listening to this video I most definitely would have felt your pain anyway. Unfortunately some of us more then others have dealt with and been through this struggle. It's what makes us (most) the people we are today. I take pride in being honest and genuine, and watching this I know you do also. I just want to thank you from deep down for this song man. This is the music that makes me get up and keep going, and know nothings gonna stop me from being as best of a man everyday that I can be...hats off to you for this! Song of the year...👏🙏
Thank you mr taylor. Thank you for being a voice for those who can’t find the words and confidence to say what so desperately needs to be said. You are an amazing talent and musician, but you are more. You are a healer of sorts. You have helped a middle age man from the mountains of Tennessee finally let go of what should have been let go of long long ago. Again, thank you so so much from one of your new and biggest fans.
Can't stop listening to this amazing song! one the best songs ive ever listened to! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR THIS SONG! NEVER STOP CHASING YOUR DREAMS! You have a real talent! Thank you so much
The first time I heard this song, I was driving my work truck to a job site. I ugly cried and raged down that backroad. This one got me hard and brought back some pretty rough childhood memories, but it was therapeutic at the same time. Thank you
Man I discovered you tonight. I’ve listened to 4 versions of this song and I’ve had it on repeat for the last hour. The soul and pain in your voice is haunting. In my humble opinion, this is one of the most well written songs I’ve ever heard. Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing your story. You’ve struck a chord with me and I’m sure with countless others. Much love from Australia man, keep up the incredible work.
Heard your music for the first time yesterday. This song wrecked me. Just beautiful. Thank you for being so honest with your music, it’s not easy. Good luck with the submission.
Literally my favorite song by you, because of how much I relate with it. Love your music hope to see you live again! No doubt you'll be performing on the tiny desk series.
Heart and soul. Good music is hard to come by now days. Songs like this need to blow up more than anything! Nolan Taylor keep kicking it! I’ll be behind you!
Dude…. Hope you have more of this to get out! Sorry you had to live this…. But you made it so ppl can relate this masterpiece across, any bs that someone has or is going through. Thank you so much for this work/art/heart!
Love updates!! So proud to be 1st. When can we expect you @ tiny desk? If I had some extra money I would invest in you - no doubts. You will be a huge performer one day. Actually you are already.
OK so I heard a Oliver Anthony on radiowv so I looked on radiowv for other musicians and I found you, I listened to this song the first time and I was blown away by the time it ended. I showed it to my wife and the second time I was listening to it it literally brought me to tears. I am positive when more people look through that RUclips page and find you and hear your song you will go massively viral.
I've developed anxiety here in the last year and it's been a life adjustment and the way you make your words into music has this calming effect, thank you sir for your music!
I am super proud of you Nolan! You deserve everything that is coming to you buddy! I have watched the past couple of years and you keep getting better and bigger! I hope to see you play the Jamboree for your old Bainbridge people to see how far you have come!
Nolan, I’ve been following you for a couple months now. This might be the best ‘live recording’ you’ve done so far! Each time, it gets better and better!
This song and you're music in general is currently saving me life I'm so fucking depressed lately and just wanted to thank you for doing what you do keep up the good work
Good luck with Tiny Desk, Nolan! Love that this contest brings attention to lots of songwriters I might otherwise not have come across. Thanks for sharing you talent/skill here! ❤
Since discovering you at the show in Lexington, I think I have listened to everything you have out right now. Killing it, no idea how I I hadn’t found your music before. Can’t wait to see ya again on the 17th. Also, should have something made up for ya by then. Think it will fit what you kinda described to me.
So real, so deep, so powerful! Straightforward raw emotions and that incredible passion filled voice stirs an undeniable empathy in my soul! Sooo beautiful!
@Nolan Taylor Any chance you have any upcoming shows near Dayton, OH? I would love to see you live before you make it big time! I'm sure it's coming soon! I grew up living just off 68 in the Springfield/ Yellow Springs area. Would definitely drive a couple hours to hear you play! I've been drumming since I was 4, but all you ever need is just you and that guitar
Truly amazing! Been on repeat for the past month! Everyone I have shown has also become hooked! You will go big in no time and I’ll be here to support you the whole way!
So glad I came across your music, bro. You deserve all the attention. Not too many artists have what you have. John Moreland comes to mind, when I hear the depth of you lyrics. Such good stuff.
I don’t have the words to describe, but I can feel it. Nobody could deliver like this unless they have truly lived in Pain. Keep getting it out there Nolan. There are people out there that need this music. I need this.
Oh man this is so good, great tune. The video you did outside infront of a forest has a better audio recording. I find this one has a high hissing sound. I still love how much emotion a power you have put in writing this song. I can hardly wait for the wife to go shopping so I can crank it and play and sing along.
@@NolanTaylorMusic Oh I see, I guess that explains it. . . . well I hope you win ! It really is an epic tune. I'm glad someone could relate enough to post a link for me to see. Now that I have discovered you and your music. I found some of your other work on Itunes. Fighting Chance, Double life, Born to Love, I dig them all. One more thing, I hope that your relationship has workerd out or somehow improved between you and your mom. I know some things can never be resolved 100%, as long as you know you tried, but it did drive you to write this song and in a crazy kind of way that deserves another chance. Good luck in the future Nolan.

I cant stop listening!!! This man has more soul than I've ever heard before!!!!! I'm on board for the long run!
Such a compliment thank you.
It's literally made me pick a guitar up after 20 years.
They'll come around eventually. You would be fantastic on Tiny Desk. You're awesome.
Occasionally I'll find a song and have to stop everything I'm doing and start it over close my eyes listen. This is one of the best things I've ever heard.
This song on repeat !!!!

Wow thank you so much. I hope to be able to put a tiny desk together.
This is so beautiful and painfully real at the same time. Mine may be a different story but the same emotions.
"I'm tired of being nice
I just don't have it inside me
I can't take much more shit from you."
Your killing it man! I can’t wait to watch your rise to success!

I still get chills every time I hear this song and I listen to it almost daily!! Thank you for this and for many others; especially "darkness."
Thank you!!!
One day I sincerely hope Nolan can make it over to Glasgow, Scotland so that I can see him play live. This is spellbinding..
I would love to! I hope to meet you in person!

Thank you! I do plan to release a full length record.
Been stuck on all of your music for weeks now! Stellar job! Bone chilling how you can feel the soul coming out of you every time you sing. Thank you.
Wow thank you so so much.

Awesome performance, Nolan! I hope you win the Tiny Desk Contest because you deserve it! Come back to Huntington WV soon please!

Such a moving song for anyone who grew up in an unstable environment. We all deserve to be loved as much as Nolan loves music!
Appreciate you!
Nolan Ryan, brace yourself, i gotta knack for know when a true talent is about to blow up. You are excellent sir 👏 👍

I appreciate that. It is as real as it comes I must admit. True stories.
This song is so gd raw Nolan. You could win so easily.

Well that hit home
Thank you!!!
I hope you get in man!
Me too! What a dream!
Good luck Nolan!!!
Thank you!!
Oh man this is so good, great tune. The video you did outside infront of a forest has a better audio recording. I find this one has a high hissing sound. I still love how much emotion a power you have put in writing this song. I can hardly wait for the wife to go shopping so I can crank it and play and sing along.
This is just for a contest man it’s an iPhone
@@NolanTaylorMusic Oh I see, I guess that explains it. . . . well I hope you win ! It really is an epic tune. I'm glad someone could relate enough to post a link for me to see.
