Kevin Morby - This is a Photograph (Official Video)

[@collinmc90]

Nothing hits like the first time you hear a song like this.

[@davidbuck7850]

And yet, it still grows with subsequent listenings.

[@HeartPumper]

Had chills trough my spine, deep into to the soul. My hair instantly stood on end of my head. Saw my parents, at old black& white photo. With me, 2 years old on his shoulder. Her laughing. This song is what's humanity has its best. Insanely good lyrics & score. An obsession to hear it again and again.

[@arisioz]

Imagine listening to it live for the first time. Levitation was so f rad.

[@shawfestify]

Right on, sometimes you have to just pull the car over, to avoid traffic accidents. In the old days, there’d be one, I said, I instantly pulled a U-turn on Lake Shore Drive (which is not actually possible), drive to music stairs and bought the CD, because hearing it made me lose me gd mind!

[@shawfestify]

Yeah look, I’ve been saying it since I began to have daily awareness of my own mortality, 30 years ago! I want to make my funeral video NOW, before I have to wear Depends. Since I’d want many photographs of those I have loved in this short life, I thought maybe an 11-minute-‘er, like, In My Timee of Dying by Lad Zepp-never goes out of style-optimistic about Death, “feels pretty good up here!” Etc. But this song kills. It. No better for my funeral video! Don’t you want one? Everyone I know wants one (except certain sects of Christianity , Islam, Hindu, Buddhism, and Shinto who are averse to electricity at their events. Where are the Funerals-R-Us businesses, all you unemployed Film majors?! It’s a good idea, freely given to you, no patent pending. Sure, I’ll take a free personalized video for my brilliant idea! It’ll be this song, and the six minute, Not, by Big Thief front woman Adrienne Lenker, another goddess of my funeral video. :-)

Quintessential Morby. Wistful and nostalgic without sounding so. Great, great, great

[@LowerHuttHorsesense]

This song has about 8 levels. It just goes up and up. So good

[@RiverLynch]

I love how the song just keeps building and building and building til the end. Can't wait for the full album!

[@TheHigherCraft]

A CLASSIC!!!!

[@andrewwaters9928]

Incredible! This song is blowing me away. Made me cry twice now!

[@devisvodopic3953]

This song is in its own tier, nothing really compares.

[@patricklodel6929]

Such a powerful song, one of my favourites of this year

[@jeffpower6473]

[@cesarsantamaria644]

[@TheHigherCraft]

brings back/Taps into THE FIRE WITHIN US

[@moonpulp13]

Reminds me that life is precious.

[@tribegoldie4282]

Absolutely 👏

[@amynewman5099]

What a song for the perplexity and dichotomy that is life. Reminisce on the times that were and what can be. Time charges on. A reminder to live moments you'd miss about being alive.

[@nova9178]

232 seconds of pure joy and innovative sounds that fill you up with inspiration. What a unique artist!

[@MargotNotari]

I love everything about this song, thank you Kevin Morby for bringing me joy through your music

[@TheHigherCraft]

🙏

[@Harbaksh1234]

Now this, is what a dedicated songwriter sounds like! An exceptionally great song!

[@Yapcity78787]

Having lost my mom to cancer, with just photos left… this simply ✨hits different✨

[@aecho5955]

He have no business goin this hard. Just breathtaking. 😳😳

[@christophermartin-givens9849]

That was great. It felt like they chased the energy that the band displays during Morby's live performances and brought it to the record. Can't wait for the album!

[@SimonRobeyns]

Saw him live yesterday, blew everyones socks off. Thought he'd be a more reserved kinda guy and Poland wouldn't be a very willing crowd for his kinda music but no, fantastic concert and everyone loved it. After the show he just casually came to the merch booth and signed autographs, took photos and talked to everyone. Super humble dude. If you get a chance to go watch him live, go now! Well worth your time.

[@avocadomonkey4892]

Came here after listening to the Song Exploder episode on this song -- so layered in sound and meaning, and builds up to the end. Wow!

[@hugosilva.]

Wow what a ray of light and joy! Instant favourite! Thank you, Kevin Morby!

[@valeriecourtot9569]

Tout simplent sublime. J'avoue que si Mc Do ne l'avait pas pris pour sa pub, je ne l'aurais jamais découvert mais bon, j'aime beaucoup cette chanson alors merci!!!

[@gordonballard8222]

4.a.m in Australia loving this song. Ready to take the world on. Peace ☮

[@TheDebater94]

What a fantastic album, released today and already listened through it twice.

[@vladimirkudrin5311]

I remembered my childhood. I sent a photo of my children to my grandmother. Thank you!

[@floatlifecalgary1923]

Love the way you shred this live. Keep rocking!

[@iscre8509]

This is beautiful. Great music, poetic words, superb images. Art.

[@petrskocdopole7575]

Just saw the movie Apollo 10 1/2 with my son and now the same day heard this perfect song and realized how similar lives we lived and live even though on the other side of the world no matter whether with bolshevics or Reagan or Havel, Obama, Trump or whoever but with our parents, toys, dreams, photographs and memories. Thank you, Kevin Morby, best regards from your Czech fan! Come to Prague one more time.

[@scottmcnally6518]

Sooooo good! the build up is amazing. It really embodied the energy and feeling behind real moments captured on film, the stories they tell, the ability to transport the viewer back to that point in time. Cant wait for the full album! ❤️✌️

[@thiagolopes3626]

Energetic and vibrant aproach in a theme that has everything to be melancolic. Eletric nostalgia, very fresh.

[@TheHigherCraft]

Electric nostalgia, nice term!

[@joshpfleegor]

Sundowner was the first morby album I heard and I loved it. Played it on repeat for days, but this…I’m going to wear out entire speaker systems and headphones listening to this

[@JohnKean]

I’ve been wearing out all of em. Also started with Sundowner!

[@TheHigherCraft]

@@JohnKean i HEARD hARLEM rIVER over n over n over n over until I woke up AND then I FELL

[@ma6579]

No idea who this guy is but this is an absolutely fantastic song. Something about it is hypnotic and deeply moving. I can hear an almost West African influence in those guitar licks as well which is just magnificent when it’s set alongside those scenes of rural America. Great work

[@davidweaver766]

Seen him twice and have a third show coming up. Never miss Kevin Morby.

[@oogwayy777]

This will undoubtedly be used in some commercials and television shows to come.

[@BurmaShane]

The sign of success or sell out ?

[@oogwayy777]

@@BurmaShane Great point. Most of his songs are odes to death. He often throws occult symbolism into his videos too.

[@jennyrosenthal]

brilliant song

[@bunsenburner3540]

I feel dumbfounded by how beautifully the Tutsti’s sing, and my newly discovered artist through the apple music a rhythm. Go! Yes! So good ty Kevin . Keep it up!

[@andrewthompson5609]

Woooooow. This is amazing. Cannot wait to hear more.

[@betoritchie]

That second verse is my favorite, of time vs his father… full of Muhammad Ali / Sugar Ray Leonard vibes, the young wanting time to speed up while the old wanting it to slow down and stop beating them up, great poetry

[@TheHigherCraft]

bEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

Wonderful! It's only Rocknroll! But This Is a Photograph! Thanks Kevin Morby. Loved it immediately.

[@gregbowen617]

I first heard this song a few months ago on JJ radio here in Melbourne Australia and it’s hooked me… just heard it again tonight and I love the creeping buildup, terrific lyrics and open, almost loose continuous rhythms. Great song. (I’m 63 years old BTW)

[@StereoChimps]

wow !! what a tune! so groovy! cant wait to listen to the new album, cheers from Brazil !

[@mason2511]

[@robertpiazza8399]

Wow! So good. So deep. I'm blown away....

[@NJDoomride]

I visited Texas while my mother was battling breast cancer. At the time I thought she was going to be okay. It felt like early summer there and it was fall. I came home and she died 2 months later. Idk why this song reminds me of that brief time I thought everyone would be okay.

[@sylviehillaire4953]
