[@satansfittesleker]

Kurt Vile! You remind me of my stepfather, he was a young man who played guitar, who reminds me alot of you. He had the same hair, the same face and the smile and charm. A streetperformer who saw alot of love in his music. He came into my life at the age 6. I was an isecure kid with little love to my family, it changed everything. He brought me out in the woods, made tents out of blankets on warm summers far away from everything. He showed me love, and made me to the guy i am today. He took his life when i was 15 (now 26). Love to see your energy, because that is what he showed me. The energy to live my life, even tho everthing sometimes seems helpless Keep the music flowing, it's awesome!

I was feeling frustrated that the people in my world don't find the same depth and attachment to this song that I do and wished that I could find someone who appreciates this song as much as me (for all the same reasons and more). And then I read all these comments and felt much better. I love the lyrics, the harmonies, the chord changes on the guitar, the drums, the rhythm, the background vocals, the video, the feeling of something so familiar and yet distant that it captures through the words and the music. Just brilliant.

Late September 2015. Fall had started, but the summer refused to go away, although the sunshine wasn't the same and I was about to embrace a intra-rail journey for a week around the country. This masterpiece was blasting all the time on my favourite radios and I was enjoying the threeling of being free and young. I didn't recognize myself at mirror, because I was discovering myself being a lonely travel. The song was a part of that journey, and really miss those days, every time I listen it.

[@JanH80-pm5bw]

Can relate. I was left alone in Birmingham. Limited money, new job, new people. Turned out great autumn. Later, February 2016 I got other job, made a lot of money, travelled a lot. Left that job in September 2021, left UK for good. This song is very meaningful for me. And I'm not sentimental. God bless!

Matthew McDaniel I've had this song on repeat and I've noticed some awesomely subtle things in the lyrics. One of my favorites : early in the song he says "Didn't recognize the MAN in the mirror". Then he later says "All he ever wanted was to be a man, but was a little to cute". Later in the lyrics he repeats the mirror line but says "Didn't recognize the BOY in the mirror". Such a great little detail.

[@inoculatemedia]

Found this song on the radio today right after I found a new cowboy hat. The song resonated with me because I’ve “been” so many people in my 54 years. From being in bands like Brian Jonestown Massacre, Psychic TV, to being a beach bum, to starting a tech company, to currently caring for autistic men. I DID literally brush a stranger’s teeth today. Then I found my cowboy hat, then three wild mustangs walked right up to my autistic patient and myself as we listened to this song. One of those cosmic magic moments. Thanks for the song, Kurt.

Yes what is interesting is that I decided to take magic mushrooms for the first time after a friend gave me some..but I did them at home alone and that honestly was what cracked me open and got me to start accepting and confronting what I was going through mentally. Lots of crying hahaha, but good, healing crying. It is never a matter of whose trauma is worse, we all suffer here and there. I'm glad it seems like you've been doing better too! Hopefully now things are in a much better place for you. The world can be too much to handle a lot of times.

[@dts7824]

@@cole1710 to be honest I had some really good experiences with the mushrooms, I just think we took way too much to the point that reality completely dissolved away haha. But towards the end of the trip I had a moment of the purest mental clarity I have every experienced. No thoughts at all, just complete contentment and awareness, it was incredible. Maybe if it had just been the mushrooms I would need ok, but trying to make sense of everything and then getting hit with a life threatening health scare was not what I needed at that time haha.

This song is such a masterpiece

How can someone NOT like this? I mean surely at that point there’s something wrong with the person. This is gold.

One of the best musicians out there now...love his songs and playing...

[@lecanalband]

Loved this song from day one. Been a while, dropped in and realize it’s still one of the best tunes in recent years.

[@crazygood4]

This song literally made me pick up my guitar after two listens. So good. The last record helped me a lot in my personal life and I am beyond excited to hear the second one.

That is a harmony with the drummer, she also plays drums for the band warpaint

[@trishamorris9732]

A couple of weeks back this song played on a radio station I had never listened to before. I just happen to hear some of it while scanning stations. I paused and listened to it for the first time. It stuck with me. I needed to hear it again. I kept googling pieces of the lyrics...at last I found it. Gonna go listen a trillion times and never lose it again.

[@aster6593]

I just discovered this song a few days ago, and wow is this song a work of art. I've had chronic head pain for about 10 years now leading to depression and dissociation, and this is just hitting home. The wonderful and hypnotic instrumentation captured me immediately, the lyrics were relatable, and then, like how each day just feels the same as the last, it repeats itself. And repeats itself, and repeats itself where time has no meaning. Brief changes here and there to provide a moment of self-awareness before fading back into a trance of more of the same. The song ends, each minute another day lost. I really appreciate this track and have added it to my playlists!

I just discovered Kurt Vile and I'm really liking him as an artist. I'm glad to see he's got a music video so that I have some visuals to go with his amazing music!

[@jordanerzsebet2727]

This song helped me get through some very hard times and disassociation.

[@keith-leecastle6700]

The lo fi brilliance of Kurt Vile.

[@ThirdDimensionalBeing]

I watched him buy a few records in a record store at south street. You can bet that his hair looked just as amazing in person as it does in his music videos.

[@schoolybear1]

Never heard this song before right now. I like it! Definitely a catchy earworm. Gonna listen to more Kurt.

[@groundedtilltheforthofjuly1259]

this is literally the first song i heard after i woke up from a month long coma and it changed my life forever. the most important song on earth to me, and whats even funnier, i went to see him play, and walked right past his meet and greet table 100 times not realizing what it was

A few years back I had a drawing class in college where we had weekly sketchbook assignments. I'd sit for hours the night before it was due (damn you procrastination!) and just listen to Kurt Vile the whole time. It made another otherwise arduous job not so bad. I just love his music and style.

I graduated in Philly the year Kurt was born, lIved in Lansdowne around the time his daddy gave him that first banjo and now I live in LA and get to watch this video he shot in SoCal 25 years later. Both he and Adam of War on Drugs are great representatives of the enduring art and authenticty that has always been the "Philly music scene." Kurt deserves to get a Grammy next.

[@Chandelier911]

I discovered this song 5 years ago on a sailing video. It's still one of my all time favorites. I really wished the rest of Kurt Vile's music could match it, but nothing comes close. I guess it is a one hit wonder, but what a great song and video! Congratulations Kurt!
