Citizen - Drown (Nervous Energies session)

[@desolatesoul2304]

Young man has talent. Real voice, real playing, real emotion. God bless you sir.

[@dtn420]

This is an artist not some corny bullshit put together to sound good its real and has heartache I love this song

[@jakobzeimetz4035]

Nick Fontanetta for sure

[@kubakobiela6]

but i have heartache every time im listening this :(

[@asecretninja]

I admire that he doesn't look like everyone else, or what people would expect. I hope it inspires people to break through the mold the scene has created. Too many people look the same now.

[@RipRop__]

"I'd like to kill the moodto stay in solitude"Perfect.

[@xXKillEmAll94Xx]

I love how effortlessly he plays guitar. Dude's an awesome songwriter.

[@madvillainbr]

look at his eyes... he's feelin' it.

[@CreepingMetallica91]

You can tell he's really passionate about the music and he feels it and really means every word he sings. I love that. Simply amazing song and performance. (:

[@BlurryGhost9]

I'll sleep outside Bury myself on a winter night I'll let you do the things you want to I'd rather die alone if I have to If you don't mind I think I'll stay at home tonight My resolution says the things that I've been trying to But I'm dying to you So shut my eyes And take my life Sit alone and drown again I'd like to take you up for taking me down I'd like to take you up for taking me down And I'd love to kill the mood to stay in solitude Gets hard to see me through to stay in solitude So shut my eyes Take my life Sit alone and drown again Sit alone and drown again

[@shakezula1123]

[@christeehuh]

SAME HERE it still messes with my mind lol

[@melodicmarc]

It's weird to me how he uses his thumb to bar those chords. But it's absolutely amazing the way he sings

[@timespentalone-ma5104]

its just part of the arrangement

[@PunTimesWithNeil]

[@sammcandrew9305]

tunning?

[@CloseUrEyesNListen]

Im torn about this, i like the acoustic versions much more than the originals. Does this guy have a solo project where i can find more of this?

[@tonjr619]

CloseUrEyesNListen you probably found it, since its been five years, lmao but Incase you haven’t, yeah He’s Mat Kerekes

[@kylekordzikowski6392]

does anyone know what tuning this is in?

[@WeAreLeviticus]

kyle kordzikowski D standard

[@wesmarking9818]

+kyle kordzikowski D standard

[@jiof98]

+kyle kordzikowski Full step down

[@theGatheringPlaceSOX]

): if you dont mind... i think i'll stay at home toniiiight

[@ryanweiss2004]

I really don't think you should expect anyone to look any way particular I mean, if it was good, would you stop just because of something as little as that? I realize you weren't saying it in a bad way, but you can't expect everyone to dress the same (or look all the same! lol). It's refreshing.

[@CurlyQKim2]

anyone else how his voice is deeper now compared to how he sings in this video?

[@JohnnyOTZ]

how old is he?

[@Diablo5591]

anyone know what model of acoustic that is?

[@xelperroangelx]

cual es la afinacion de las cuerdas ?

[@andriyvo6]

+Miguel Angel Ortega Soto La afinacion es standard d : DGCFAD

[@jiof98]

+Miguel Angel Ortega Soto la afinación es tono completo abajo, o (full step down), no es en standard

[@andriyvo6]

Es que yo dije: standard D, es correcto. Standard D = full step down.

[@jiof98]

+andriyvo6 cierto disculpa jaja es que casi no se mucho de música, lo básico, me se defender jaja

[@actinlooney]

D standard!

[@tonyscotton]

Does anyone know what guitar he’s playing?

[@jacksonfountain638]

it's either a martin or a mitchell guitar! I can't really tell

[@scabeater6971]

Can someone get me these acoustic chords and link me to a midi file to go with?

[@WannaBeRockStar800]

[@andriyvo6]

Holdon Hold it is standard but D standard,not E standard...you know,full step down. that's what i meant dude ahah

[@BaDSpiriT]

andriyvo6 Oh yeah you're right, sorry

[@andriyvo6]

Holdon Hold no harm done!

[@DrEaMiNgHuGe]

Shit, so far, there's really not much chord or lyrical variation. Haha. Somehow, they're still perfect.

[@dotdotdotblackbear]

He looks like Earl if he was white

[@kingJAMES383]

[@310guitars]
