We were just mucking about in the studio while recording Hellbent and Jody was in a good mood so knocked out some acoustic numbers... let us know what you think. thanks for listening

[@theleagueoflucifurry9837]

I've been in love with your guys' sound since I heard Stalkers Tango and haven't let it go 😍 I've memorized just a few of your songs 😅 (honestly debating posting a cover of one or two...)

[@jaimegardea6037]

Sounds amazing!

[@lsky5410]

please do everything it takes for Jody's good mood:-)

[@axolotllan]

I love this, takes it from that frenetic frustrated sad tone to a sort of wistful sad lullaby. The clarity of your voice and clean guitar work really just gives it a totally different feel.

[@dark-harvet4897]

I can't really put words together but THIS IS VERY GOOD SOUND!! With it just being acoustic with Jody's voice it made me think more about the lyrics in the way that it feels like I understand them more-- OVERALL VERY NICE!! HOPE Y'ALL ARE DOING ALRIGHT!!

[@jameslunsford8245]

This song has such versatility, whether its fast and upbeat, or slow and more reserved. It's such a good song all around and i love it so much

[@takozz2197]

ahh the emotion in "i want to be free" feels a bit different from the way it is in the original version and it fully made my heart clench.. so glad you're doing this

[@Zeldaesque]

Been waiting for the acoustic version of this song for so long, I'm so so glad it just came out and I didn't miss it. Love you guys. ❤️

[@AutoheartOfficial]

we didn't make a big deal of it - there's going to be a few of these over the coming weeks so watch out

Lent is one of the most important song for me. It's always my comfort song when things go wrong and I need a hug. So glad you made an acoustic version of it. I had always wondered what it would sound like and now I know, ir sounds heavenly. Love you guys so so much.

[@eldritchcorvid]

One of the best voices I've ever heard ❤️ I adore this version!

[@AutoheartOfficial]

amazing. thank you

[@SupaDupaFlyGirl]

@@AutoheartOfficial no, you are! My husband and I just found your music and we can't stop playing it all ✨️💕 never stop!

[@lsky5410]

For God's sake, Jody, how it's even possible to sound SO good irl😩 I hope you will be in good mood more often so we could hear you more❤️❤️❤️ it's so healing 🙌🏻

[@acroissant3721]

I discovered this song like a week ago and I've been singing it to myself 24/7, now this comes out! I'm never going to escape this song, and honestly I'm not complaining...

[@SupaDupaFlyGirl]

Same for my husband and I in October 2022 💕🤘🏻

[@DrawingZerberus]

Through this song I first confronted the abusive relationship I was in a few month before I finally got the strength to go. This song means a lot to me and I love this acoustic version

[@SodiumTasha]

❤️

[@AutoheartOfficial]

Humbled our song helped maybe just a little bit. Hope you’re in better place now x

[@DrawingZerberus]

@@AutoheartOfficial thank you, I can say I really am. Couldn't even imagine how far I'd come after accepting what I am worth it :)

[@tyone6130]

Could never get tired of watching and listening to you Jody.

Thank you ❤

[@randomkiddoscrewinaround2177]

This is one of my favorites from Autoheart

[@owihl3110]

Same

[@AutoheartOfficial]

thanks! ours too obvs

[@Soulz_Lantern]

I love this so much. I love how in the acoustic vers, the ‘i want to be free’ sounds more emotional/soft while in the orginal it sounded more desperate/urgent! I love both equally, but i’m sure i’ll be having this on loop for like, 2 weeks or more now that i found it.💜

[@Uszolada]

I'm madly in love with Jody's voice. Can't get enough of your acoustic versions of songs and waiting impatiently for the album ❤️ Keep up the wonderful work

[@Dolcebnuuy]

I'm so glad you did this song!! It's one of the most important to me, and I can't believe you did it with such good breath support- :)

[@AutoheartOfficial]

we love it too

[@y0_0nji]

ahhhh im so happy! lent means so much, and now having a new different version.... this one has a very different mood and i love it

[@AutoheartOfficial]

yeah it's more... laid back this way

[@hjue44]

Lent is easily one of my favorite songs from you, so happy to hear this

[@howtozuzu]

This sounds absolutely amazing 💖 It makes me so incredibly happy that you guys post again!! It makes me happy every day to have my fav band post!!!

[@AutoheartOfficial]

yeah, we've been making stuff and now we're going to share it all!

[@avecaesar8765]

I met your band thanks to this song many years ago. I can listen to it endlessly

[@satinizer8021]

this version is so calm and sincere,,, i love the original, but i might love this one more

[@valeriya2623]

Jody 💓😌😘🎶🎶🎶👏👏👏

[@hanthony1503]

This is one of my favorite songs of all time, ever since I found it back in 2018. I thought the ever-increasingly chaotic instrumental, like spiral of bottled anger until the bridge's release, is what drove the entire thing for me... this is proof it's just as effective (if not more..?) as a slow and steady kind of tension, as well. Thank you so much Jody! You guys treat us too well :,)

[@annem4100]

Punch is my favorite album getting acoustic versions is like an early Christmas present, I hope we’ll see agoraphobia, factories, and hungover in the city of dust soon! And acoustic versions on Spotify would be fabulous

[@gastapasta1061]

Even after listening to the original version over a hundred times this song never loses its spark. You have such a beautiful voice🥹🥹

[@judithkriner6885]

Autoheart don't need no autotune ;)

[@gismoline6940]

A while ago I fell in love with this song and now that I hear the acoustic version I fell in love again. It gives me a whole different pallet of feelings. Especially when I see a handsome man sing it. Thanks for this blessing.

[@HoneyyChai]

Every single song you guys release slaps, but I feel like Lent will always hit different. It’s one of the most emotional songs I’ve ever listened to by you. Keep up the amazing work, I pray for the day the youtube algorithm starts showing you to more folks!

[@theundeadpancake9869]

When I saw the notification seeing that you were doing an acoustic cover of Lent, I nearly screamed, I was so excited! What I wasn't expecting was a slower, more tired and desperate story about someone who longs to be out of a relationship they were putting too much effort into but not receiving any of that back. Its perfect. And honestly, I'd _love_ to hear more acoustic covers from you guys! The Hungover in the City of Dust acoustic cover was stunning, and this is another gorgeous cover that I adore. You did an _amazing_ job!

[@Zero-Zero-Zero-Zero]

I always sing this song on the bike, you can imagine I almost die from lack of oxygen everytime 😅

[@shuichisaihara1123]

why are you so underrated its not fair to life

[@AutoheartOfficial]

we dont feel underrated by you all

[@FIy019]

just discovered this song and what a gift this is

[@AutoheartOfficial]

Thank you - we recorded a load of acoustic and other live stuff while making the album which we are putting out on yt over the next few months

[@sky_delirium]

This song has moved me in an unimaginable way. I haven't known for a long time what to feel in the face of a series of adversities. Thank you very much for this beautiful version.

Yesssssss!! Lent is one of my favorites and I love acoustic versions of songs so much!
