For some reason, hearing Tristam's voice is like hearing an old friend that you haven't heard from in a while. Point is, I freaking love Tristam.

[@apoisonpotato93]

me too. he is so amazing. 😻😻

[@jef9793]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

[@Dexrazor]

Exactly. As soon as he started singing I felt nostalgia and thought about good times with old friends :')

It just feels so sad hearing Tristam's music again and falling in love with them all over again, knowing he is distancing himself from the label and slowly removing his music from Monstercat...

[@rafaeldantas1349]

Is he removing his old releases?

[@SkyyySi]

@@rafaeldantas1349 Yes he is. Look up MCEP004: Smashing Newbs. It used to be an EP by Tristam, but now it's gone except for the first track (which was a collab with Rouge). The EP is now on OnyxFour (Tristam's own label) and called "You clearly let it show".

[@ethandemille2585]

Or at least a Braken track

[@charliedacherub]

yessss

[@iMakeOnionsCry]

Hell no!

[@pivotguy]

Braken left I think

[@HazardPay35]

I somehow feel connected to this song, the haunting reverberations like an empty room filled with echoes of times past, the lyrics that describe people waking up from petty arguments that really hold no weight in their lives, coupled with the sweet sounds of the front of this songs score. The entire song to me feels like someone realizing what they've lost and can never get back after meaningless arguments or disagreements. I have fallen in love with this song.

[@conmatt6284]

[@Azzla]

I keep coming back to this song. I think it's incredibly underrated, and this is from a guy who doesn't really like most of Tristam's tracks. The chord progression has me so in love

[@noxious.vertigo]

Honestly, this and Bone Dry are my all time favourite, but everyone else seems to disagree and it bugs me that everyone masses around "Flight" and "Frame of Mind" and I don't really enjoy them as much

[@TheRealDela-lelalt]

There’s a reason why F.O.M. Has 30M views, don’t see how you like it too..

[@gideonsochay.2098]

actually that comment was 3 years ago mate... if i recall correctly it was also around 500,000 more or less ish that time still even if it's 1.5 m now the comment still stand and is more accurate than ever compared to most of his hits that hit at 50-100 Million views this number isn't that high considering the song is actually great if you ask me, it's super underrated and deserved more than this

[@ArdantArdent]

I find it ironic that all of tristam's other songs have millions of views, and this one, which has the same quality as some of his best, only has 700,000 views(if you're reading this in the future, i said this in december of 2016)

[@GamingMorron]

Ardant I agree! Some people just aren’t into this type of music and are into his old stuff. That is their opinion, I guess

[@sushanthadusumilli1067]

Nope this is nowhere close to his other songs. Before We Fade is definitely a weaker tune compared to stuff like Vine, My Friend, Bone Dry etc. Even Devotion and Questions which are different style from Tristam are great. Before we fade is probably the weakest tune he did in recent years

Who agrees that VEVO songs are overrated and monstercat is very much so underrated?

[@Dubstone]

you're stating that VEVO is a fucking artist or what?

*Lyrics:* If the road of truth is fine Which one of us is out of line? Although you say you can prove it more I can feel it down to my core In a world where our word’s gold I sit and believe what I’m told But in this blue world filled with bones I’ll just keep dancing on my own (On my own, on my own…) It’s a useless waste of time I don’t care what’s on your mind The truth is never for us to find We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade I can almost hear it cry This feeling that you somehow deny Just how did you fail to hear The roaring, grinding of your gears Cause you didn’t take the loss Your future self honors the flaws And some of us will rot awake Watching you as you fix all your mistakes But while you’ll understand Subtle movements of the land Within the limits of these chains There’s only so much to explain One day you will find this wall The one that’s infinitely tall And as we move the hour hand Are we just dancing in the sand? It’s a useless waste of time I don’t care what’s on your mind The truth is never for us to find We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade.
