Gang of Youths - The Deepest Sighs, the Frankest Shadows

[@Beeyourself321]

This is the type of music that makes you want to keep living. Even when you feel like all hope is lost. Their music gives me light. Infuses my bones with life.

[@johnanraad7311]

Completely agree! When I am down Gang of Youth begs you to keep giving life a shot

[@deneon2209]

word. it's like most of their songs were written for people that is on the verge of giving up. and they reach to tell them "hey it's gonna be ok dude. you're not alone ". truly bands like these can save a life.

[@user-xq5dh8fv2i]

Amen to that.. There's hints of Bruce Springsteen, Jamie cullam, temper trap.. Positive vibe that just lifts the spirit.. A friend forwarded it to me, utterly perfect

[@sofapillow7660]

“This song came about after I struggled with writer’s block for a year, barely managing to etch out more than a single verse of something awful the whole time. I was walking home across the Brooklyn Bridge one night, questioning my place in the world, contemplating giving up music and doing something more substantial. I sort of felt that I wasn’t doing anything that actually mattered. But I looked out at the skyline, all silvery and strange and in typical self-indulged frontman fashion, I began to revel in this moment of abandon, of self-hate. As a result, I think I stumbled across a kind life-affirming axiom; that in a cosmos potentially absent of meaning, and an existence devoid of objective value, I have an opportunity to invent my own meaning. We all do. We can ascribe meaning and value to our own lives and in a way, attribute great esteem and value to each other as a result. All of us as adults, from youth to old age are drunk, stumbling around in the dark looking for a kebab. I’m scared and unsure, and I want to acknowledge this rather than repress it, or allow cynics to denigrate me because of it. So the song is about becoming more human, more aware and I guess in a way, more alive.” - Dave Le'aupepe, singer for Gang of Youths

[@carolwest6095]

Much love from a fellow poet and philosopher.

[@candacegabelish5208]

this song rips my heart open every time, and lets the love pour out. It reminds me that if the only thing I get right in this life is to love, then that's good enough

[@daisym2357]

KZbin recommended me "Achilles, Come Down" and here I am, listening to their other songs. Their songs are hella good and got me feeling something but in a good way

His voice is so incredible...it's like being wrapped in the warmest, most wonderful hug imaginable

[@dissilymordentroge5818]

GIven his range is so wide at times that wonderful hug can turn into something that strangles you.

[@Beeyourself321]

"To be wanted with truth, and make formidable love. See light in myself that I see inside everyone else I know". Those lyrics get me every time. Bring me to tears. So raw. Truthful. And beautiful.

[@rexcaruana5800]

All good bro. Well said

These guys' lyrics are on another plane. I haven't heard such well written, poetic lyricism in ages.

[@michaelwinters7415]

My son put me onto Gang of Youths, I will be forever thank for that, the group is incredible😃

[@friendofpelicantown]

A song so infinitely comforting to listen to during low points these past couple of years. This song for me is yet another reason why life is worth living.

[@sheryllevell4721]

I love his rawness, being able to be honest makes him a man that men can relate to..I love him

[@munrosewarne6551]

[@tiffanycarne306]

He reminds me of my boyfriend

[@daniel23554]

Brilliant song with potent lyrics. This one is a keeper for sure. Thank you for creating and for sharing this with the world, Gang of Youths!

[@Crytica.]

This song makes me self reflect so hard but most importantly it's triumphant and it gives me courage. This song almost brings me to tears, or well... It at least makes it hard to swallow for me. Just because this song speaks to me so stupidly much it's like he is basically telling me to chin up and embrace the absurdity of it all instead of hiding all of it away.

[@rarecoast9000]

The way the lyrics flow in every Gang of Youths song is perfect

[@ScottOBrien-qi5lk]

Almost 6 minutes of musical perfection.

[@cwftrash7737]

Heard this band last night in a bar in Brussels. I just can't believe how good this album is. In 8 years I haven't felt like this for any music or artist. Just unbelieveable.

[@patrickrobbins9552]

I'm now ready to admit that this is my favorite song.

[@danielc6991]

That moment at the end of the song when the drums subside and it’s just David’s voice singing the refrain with electric guitar - special moment - gets me every time

[@ES-aussie68]

Agree, just when you think you've heard it all, he switches it up even more, a genuis writer and singer.

[@peachykeen7344]

This song still makes tears stream from my eyes from so many different emotions. What a gift. 💫

[@ROBBSTAR76]

What a song. Reminds me of simpler times and makes me take a step back in life and reflect. The talent that just keeps on giving from the land down under it makes me proud to be Australian. Inxs was fantastic , a world class band and now gangs of youth. These guy are the equivalent to Mumford & sons. Thank you Gang of Youths for releasing top notch , top quality music 👌

[@jaimekatz6645]

Great song! ❤❤❤

[@rakibhasan8016]

I've heard this song sometimes before. That time this beauty didn't catch me. But today I've listened this song for more than 20 times. Still can't get enough of it. To those with inferiority complex, You're not alone. We all aren't born to be great. It's okay live simply and than die.

[@kamvans]

Thanks to my little brother I got into this beautiful band. What a song! Listening to it the whole day. It already is one of my favorite 30 songs of all time.

[@AthenaAurora]

Simply put, the most beautiful song i've ever heard. It's glory and pain and hope and so much more; every time I need a cry I listen to this.

[@urdadthatwenttogetmilk8393]

on the 6th of September at the Festival Hall in Melbourne I cried when you sang this song. Thank you for one of the best nights of my 43 years

[@tarachamberlain5418]

it was an amazing night

[@mdcavnah]

Music is my religion. It's simple, and over complicated all at once. This song is everything, and more in between.

[@jewelsgemsdupes3608]

My daughter found this amazing band a few weeks ago .I'm 56 and totally hooked on them. Have yet to find a song of theirs i don't like. My girls already got tickets to go see them. Amazingly talented .

[@joanneroberts855]

I'm 54 and found them via mumford and sons,such talent

[@HomerSimpsonIsCool]

This is one of the best songs ever crafted. Getting to see it performed live twice on two different sides of the world is a privilege very few will have the opportunity to experience. Getting to do Farm work in New Zealand allowed me to see land similar to what is displayed in the music video. This song is in my top 10 favourite, without a doubt.

[@aprilnorton979]

How have I not already obsessed over this band?! I feel like I missed out not hearing about them in time. Oh well, obsession started! Will obsess harder to make up for the time lost.

[@bryanpanko4606]

This is simply amazing.. Its almost too amazing.. I am very thankful for its existence.. It makes me wanna live

[@johnanraad7311]

This song gives me chills every time. I feel like it inspires me and drives you to go out there, and live life to the fullest!

[@lindseybonfiglio496]

Fav band. For real. I’m the most atheist you can be and I still love this band. They put so much emotion in their music. The instrumentation alone makes you swell with emotion. Then the words the lyrics are so beautiful and real and raw and emotional. Just absolutely fantastic and I wish they got the attention they deserve. They aren’t nearly as big enough as they should be.

[@VikingerOnYT]

This song is sooo good!

[@BJR1977]

Biggest musical act in Australia at the moment... hands down! No band or solo act comes close to them.

[@zerner1999]

There’s no band / artist I listen to who can have so much of an effect on my emotions with their voice, see you in Brisbane Gang of Youths

I'd just like to say this is quite frankly, hands bloody down, the band that actually writes massively emotive and powerful music that seriously raises the spirits... Long live the Gang....

I commented on this years ago, but I just wanted to say - this song was released on my birthday and probably saved my life. Thank you.

@@Lach121 Thanks for the lecture in comparative musicology. However I spoke of ‘popular music’ and hold to the assertion for too long now it’s been a barren area. Unwilling to hear something new? You can’t know that about my exposure to music in it’s many forms. Granted I avoid rap which to my ears, even if the lyics are powerful, is a form that’s been running in the same pointless circles for far too long. I hear nothing new in any. of it.
