Houses - Fast Talk

[@calebarrington5617]

"I'm going to be 32 years old tomorrow and I feel half completely alive and half completely dead" Whoa, that hit deep.....

[@seanmarrs606]

Caleb Arrington I dont blame you. Your parents made it worse by naming you Caleb.

[@Megabella21]

PREACH!

[@chuckhoyle1211]

Seriously, if that's how you really feel, then do something meaningful with your life. Life's too short to be moping around bitching about how empty inside you are. The best way to feel better about yourself is to help others.

[@mikeadoll]

56 years old , usually listen to older country . Heard this song when I was changing stations. LOVED IT. Excellent tune , gonna listen to more from this band.

[@crabsign]

I am with you - 57 year old female and love Alt Nation radio - when this song comes on it's kind of a reality check!

[@Inks505]

Michael Doll not the brand sir the genre

[@jacobclayton4828]

I'm 43, and just heard this song for the first time today on XM Alt Nation while driving my dad's truck, which I seldom do. Needless to say, it blew me away, and now I can't stop listening to it. It's a strange, but very good thing how we find music, or it finds us

[@jonathanparker1927]

It’s cool that we can all relate on this song! 28 years old here.

[@johnwaltercrider]

You should listen to the cover of this song. I think it’s really good. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3u4Y5Z_iMmGp6M

[@Hollywoodzz646]

While the song at first sounds sweet and buttery, it's actually a "memorial" to a group of friends Tortoriello had in his late teens. "Thematically, it’s almost like a ballet where you keep driving around the same blocks," he says. "And people start disappearing from the car because they’re going to jail or dying." Holy fuck can I relate...

[@ExistentialIntrovert]

This song is so underrated

[@teebeemajestee]

It'll get the popularity and praise it deserves

[@debbiewilliams3304]

Yeah I am actually going to be 32 in less than 4 months.this guy singing made me think of Chris Martin from coldplay.made me think and reminiscing of when Coldplay was new around the time parachutes was new.god how much time times have changed!

[@opheliaamoret3981]

This song induces unrecognizable nostalgia and a fresh perspective all at once somehow, and for me, that is one of the most beautiful things. I haven't encountered a song like this in a long, long time, and wow. I've played it nonstop for a month and it never fails to feel like the first time. Thank you for this, Houses.

[@Pandyofthewoods]

Omg you nailed it! Perfect description of the song!

36 years old and spirit brought this song to me a few years back I was running from life’s dissapointments down to Dallas Texas from Indiana , fresh out the army, my best friend Angel had passed awat

[@alexanderray7416]

Passed away , took his own life with heroin. So I go to see his grave and his sister and I clicked pretty quick . It was a wild ride living down there . Ultimately had to come back home. To find everyone is gone. I roll solo these days . One friend at a time . Karmas just a different word for bad luck , we better run

Shiiii Not to get all soft but man this brings back the days when me and my older brother would roam around long boarding in abandoned parking garages and running from security and stuff like that... I miss it way to much every time I think about It I wish I could just go back. Good times. It’s hard to explain but the bond we had was unbreakable and I wouldn’t give it up for anything. We still hang but he is not around much anymore cause work and he’s grown up and so have I... idk why this song makes me travel back in time so much l, but it does. Thanks if you read this far :\

[@tonymontano602]

Check out the Still Woozy remix. It’s so damn good

[@TheArgusApocraphex1]

I'm only 22 but this song speaks to everything I'm feeling in life right now: reminiscing about being a kid with no worries, both parents and two decent siblings. Now my old man is ashes, my siblings are assholes, and I love my mom and feel good for taking care of her partially. But I'd be completely lost without her, I'm jobless and afraid of the future that just seems to be coming faster and faster while just kind of fade into obscurity. I hope not.

[@SilentStormMusic]

yeah I feel your pain, not easy getting older! i'm 25 and i was struggling alot at 22, and still am to some degree. hopefully things will get better! Love this song so much too.

[@daveh2612]

Hey... so I’m 40. Turned 40 this year. That’s insane. Time absolutely flies by. I can remember being 22 like it was last week. You don’t feel any different at 40. Like, life changes but you’re still the exact same person inside looking out. Don’t waste your 20s even if life lately feels like shit. It’s not all bad and you are realllly young. Please don’t waste your youth. You will blink and it’ll be gone.

[@beaueck1228]

I’m turning 22 this year. I feel ya on every level. Nice to know I’m not the only going through this kinda thing

[@PhaQ2]

50 in a couple weeks... Fuck me, time does not wait while you decide what the fuck you're gonna do! Discover your passion and follow your dreams, because before you know what hit you, you'll find you've run out of time....

[@Iampatrix]

There is no fade into obscurity once you realize we were never relevant to begin with. Life is just life, and it's easier to live when you can accept that not everything has to have some sort of meaning, it just is.

[@schmo49]

This was such a refreshing song to catch on the radio these days. A rare gem.

[@Mitchell_E_Underscore]

An old friend introduced me to this tune years ago. I still think about them every time it comes on.

My dog was put down yesterday at 10 years old. I've lived with, and loved her for a large portion for my childhood and so I've been feeling really sad and empty lately. Listening to this song on loop has really helped me escape this tough spot. ty

[@randsonic]

55 years old child of the 70's...just heard this today for the first time. Great tune...so hard to find good shit anymore.

[@reidbenbow7132]

his voice, especially in this song, reminds me of old jazz/showtune singers like Bobby Darin and Sinatra, it really gives it a somewhat nostalgic sound especially when paired with the retro-sounding effects throughout the song. I feel like this is a song that everyone can identify with and each in their own way. we all ache for a time when we were different people. Nostalgia (n) coming from the greek "nóstos", meaning "homecoming", and ἄλγος (álgos), meaning "pain".

[@jsherm1981]

I feel so connected to this music. The four Houses songs I've heard so far make me think of my middle and high school days. The fucking 90's, man. The best. This evokes that decade. To me, at least.

[@Iampatrix]

We were the latchkey generation, the last group before the internet. We spent our days finding ways to entertain ourselves till our parents got home from work unsupervised. Now parents are too scared for that, or worse get the cops called. Before politics drove everyone crazy too.

[@dakotafilms]

well said!

[@dakotafilms]

Ah, yes well said, Latchkey. I often call those times for all of us as the AC/DC or in-betweens for having the pre-internet explore the boredom etc and then the internet in our lives.

[@disgruntledpossum]

I'm not sure who quackery is but this was a defining song for me and the end of 2018. Life wasn't going great, as an infantry soldier who served in Afghanistan, and with an originally optimistic start to a relationship it failed. I said fuck it all, im going to thailand. My anxiety was rocking and I could barely even leave my house. I had my flight booked but knew I couldn't do it. Finally after chasing however many doctors down I got a prescription for Ativan. Just 5 but this son came on during my drive home. it set me right. I spent over a year in thailand and really I probably listened to this song 4000 times! thanks

[@disgruntledpossum]

saved my life

[@iantotheh]

It's not often that I dream about a song, let alone wake up remembering what it was. It's like trying to recognize yourself in a dream. But in my dream this song played and I cried. And I'm teary-eyed now.

Reminds me off them days spent trippin on the beach with my friends. We were all the young out casts and outlaws of the town. And we'd share our crazy ideas of life and love, emotions, ambitions, and the universe. I dunno why but this song really takes me back to this simpler time, so thank you!

35 years old...4 daughters...wonderful woman...unbelievably cool job...happiest I ever been in life so far...came from the gutter...put in WORK...paid my dues...no excuses period.

[@asamlos]

I just randomly rediscover this song from time to time and every time I cannot stop listening to it. It's just insanely good. Hitting worse (better?) now that I'm 23 and unable to do anything. I was born with pretty severe mental illness and it's only now sinking in that, yeah, I won't be able to really have a job or anything. I live with my parents and go to school part-time and it's becoming increasingly obvious that once school ends... I won't really have anything. I'm just devolving while everyone else is developing.

Can imagine listening to this song while watching a screen of our world destroying itself with war, greed, hate, etc.

[@majesticdragonfly]

This song makes me somewhat emotional. I’ve always felt like I haven’t achieved anything even at 19 years old and I haven’t been in a good place due to my depression. “What if death is another pair of handcuffs” this resonates with me even now living, I feel trapped and I want a way out of it but I continue to yield. I just hope life gets better for us all. 🙁

[@blakelywintersfield]

Gotta thank my best friend for showing me this song. It's weirdly really nostalgic; sounds like something from the 2000s, like when I was in elementary school being babysat by my aunt and she'd drive me around in her shitty old beater, listening to, well. Music like this. Wouldn't expect it in today's music. Thanks for the nostalgia trip, dude.

[@chachabear2766]

[@TSAwesomeonomy]

I've been listening to your stuff (Houses & Dawn Golden) for years-- both bands were in my top 5 most-listened-to artists of last year, and Reds was my most streamed song. I'm so psyched about the new music, it's had a massive influence on me.

I don’t know how but this song brings back such vivid memories. Heard it for the first time fall/winter of 2018 and I was in such a great place. Things changed pretty drastically from then, somethings got better but others worse, but this song never fails to take me back to that time. I can even remember going down the road steaming this song from KZbin seeing the record turning. So glad I found it and even got to you live in DC!
