    Just found your channel today based on my love for Danny (Amigo the Devil) and I must say I really like the way you focus on songs relating to mental health. While I find this to have been a great suggestion by your community I would be remiss if I didn't suggest you listen to his song called The First Day of the End of My Life. It is a very heavy song that I feel hits on all the things you cover in your channel.

    I'm a bit late in seeing this but I wanted to say that I've heard this song dozens of times and I never understood the buying a vowel line fully until you explained it here. Makes so much more sense than 2 random unconnected lines.

    • @Maddrabbit1930
      @Maddrabbit1930 Год назад

      In my version of the buying a vowel meant something like this. Room is spinning..meaning woke up still drunk/stoned. Felt like buying a vowel..him saying, "how the hell am i supposed to fix the problem of the world spinning! Fuck it, I'll buy a vowel is him giving up on real life and giving in to the maddness of the spin. Ikr? Nothing like hers. I like hers better. Knowing a little about the artist, my guess is she is probably closer to the intent. But omg, what an artist, eh?

I've made a point of de-stigmatizing mental health and am very open about my struggles with my patients and friends and family. It really helps my patients to see how we aren't much different & I've had friends and family confide to me their struggles that they weren't comfortable talking about.
    Thank you for being awesome and using your experiences to make a positive change in the lives of others ❤

    In high school I tried to hang myself with a belt. It was a strong leather belt and I trusted I wouldn’t be there in the morning. I mounted the belt, and let gravity take its toll. I hung there for a minute and a half. I lost consciousness. The belt snapped. I dropped and broke my tail bone. Literally. Broke my ass for trying to kill myself. There’s no way that belt should have broke. But it did. And I had this embarrassing injury from trying to end myself. So I ended up having to laugh it off.
    I shouldn’t be here. That belt should not have broke. But it did and I busted my ass.
    And I felt very different after that. The universe literally put me on my ass and made me think twice.
    Don’t think about anyone else. Love yourself.

    i love Amigo the Devil. some of the songs are a lot of fun, with energy and great wordplay; others are dark murder ballads telling interesting stories from the point of fucked up people; and then there are songs like this, For a Few Good Men, the First Day of the End of My Life, Stronger than Dead, and Cocaine and Abel - songs so rich with feeling and meaning that they move me near to tears whenever i listen to them
    plus, Danny's lovely. my partner and i went to see him just before the UK went into lockdown for the first time and, after the show, he was stood by the merch tables to say hi to people. my partner wanted a hug from him and he was happy to oblige. he then insisted that i also get a hug

    Thank you for doing this. I live in a small farming town, and as someone firmly in the closet because of my community and family, the line Burried in another man's grave has such impact for me. I've had unspeakable things happen to me growing up, and everyone expects you to put on a smile, and act like nothing ever happened. So there are many reasons why I feel ill be buried in another man's grave. Being myself has never brought anything but pain, and loneliness. When he said I just want someone frome heaven above to explain this cold and f'ed up place, these are thoughts I had when I was 7. It's hard to stay religious when being tortured as a child. Saying I know I chose my addictions is true, but its not like there were a lot of options to escape the hell I was in. Of course I was young and didn't understand that coping this was is just kicking the can down the road, and compounding my problems.

Not for the song (it meant something very different to me)but for how you reacted. If you want the reason for the smile at the end.. watch any of his live performances. He is a storyteller, and I think you might relate to many of his songs. Seems you have much in common despite having started in very different places. Take care.

Instead of interrupting the song every 10 seconds with 3 minutes of talking? You're not listening to listen. You're listening to react. And yes, you were on the cliff. I swallowed a ton of pills and was life flighted. This song hits me hard.

    @3:08... Never seek validation. It is a poor substitute for respect. Take accountability and people will respect you. Validation is garbage.
    "Validation is the lowest form of respect" is a provocative statement, and its interpretation can vary depending on context and perspective. Here are some potential reasonings behind it:
    1. Superficiality of validation:
    Validation can be seen as a superficial gesture, simply acknowledging someone's feelings or opinions without truly engaging with them or offering genuine support. This can be viewed as disrespectful because it treats the person's experiences as inconsequential or unworthy of deeper understanding.
    2. Conditional respect:
    If validation is contingent on certain behaviors or beliefs, it implies that respect is not freely given but must be earned. This can be seen as manipulative and controlling, as it puts pressure on the individual to conform to external expectations rather than being valued for who they are.
    3. Lack of challenge or growth:
    Constant validation can create an environment where people are never challenged or encouraged to grow. This can be seen as disrespectful because it treats individuals as incapable of handling or learning from criticism or differing perspectives.
    4. Focus on self-preservation:
    Sometimes, validation is used as a way to avoid conflict or difficult conversations. This can be seen as disrespectful because it prioritizes the comfort of the validator over the needs and well-being of the person being validated.
    5. Misinterpretation of validation:
    Not all validation is created equal. Uncritical or excessive validation can be misinterpreted as agreement or approval, even when it is not intended as such. This can lead to misunderstandings and hurt feelings, making it seem like a shallow form of respect.
    It's important to note that these are just some possible interpretations, and the meaning behind the statement will ultimately depend on the specific context and the speaker's intent. There are also counterarguments to consider, such as the importance of acknowledging and appreciating someone's feelings, even if you don't fully agree with them.
    Ultimately, whether or not you agree with the statement "Validation is the lowest form of respect" is a matter of personal opinion and depends on your individual values and experiences.

    • @MentalAmanda
      @MentalAmanda  6 месяцев назад

    This is the only video I go back to rewatch. I understand this song. I understand no longer wanting to be here. My late wife, now going on 16 months, was the only reason I lived. She kept the addiction away. I was drunk on love. I was drunk on her beauty, not just outward, mostly inward. Her simple request of me was a life directive. Some of it may think unhealthy but it wasn't that. Her wish was my desire. My wish was her desire. Other than her presence the thing I miss the most, was sitting on the back porch and touching her hand. Now I sit here without her wishing she would touch mine.
    I'm not going to do anything, I won't go into the afterlife feeling like a pussy because my feelings are hurt after what I see her go through to the end physically.
    I am waiting to die. I'll probably delete this. There is a suicide in different ways. Sitting and waiting. What a fucking pussy I became. I'll be buried in another man's grave.
