I didn't care but i tried to stop my voice to crack and all that.

I like his voice too. The songs are supposed to be rough and vulnerable. He makes music coming from a small shy and timid person, so those vulnerabilities add a lot to the music/ his voice cracking shows that he is just a vulnerable kid making songs about his feelings. So yeah, it fits his music. I would be bothered if it didn't fit.

Contemplating how I became the one thing I told myself I never would for the last 8 months. A heroin addict. It really doesn’t have to be like this. And I plan to try and get clean for the 2nd time tomorrow. God help me this time.

For all of you folks out there who don't write or play music, I think it's worth mentioning how awesome it feels to belt out like Will does at the end of Killer Whales, especially when it's a melody you've written. It may seem over the top and raw, but frankly, it feels so good to just let it go and belt along with the music, there's really nothing quite like it. There are two general buckets that you can put individual songs into: songs written for others, and songs written for yourself/not for others. Will belting it out like that makes me think that song was definitely more the latter.

Will Toledo is special to me because he truly writes and conveys what’s coming from the depths of his soul. I’ve never seen any other person put… everything out there like that. It feels like I know much more about Will Toledo than I should and it’s almost uncomfortable listening to him sing at times. It really means something to me, even the parts I can’t understand fully because they’re so specific to him and only him. The way he conveys his pain through art helps me stay strong, I think.

Will doesn't need to process his vocals and shave all the edges off to idiot-proof it. People need to understand an 'emotional' performance isn't just someone singing loudly about a breakup - self-disgust and angry desperation and hysterical loneliness are all emotions too, and expressing them in a perfect auto-tuned sheen of radio-friendlyiness neuters these feelings. I admire singers like Will, like Jamie Stewart of Xiu Xiu or Fiona Apple, who sing even if people tell them they can't or shouldn't. Art shouldn't be dismissed if it isn't 'pretty.' We can have both, and we can have everything in-between. Glad Will is still at it, more powerful than ever.

will singing sounds like he's expelling demons. i feel like i can feel his sadness in it and i think it's beautiful to listen to him cleanse himself every time he performs his feelings like that. that's what makes me like his voice. and once i got used to it in that way i started to just want to listen to it intrinsically

Writing from the perspective of someone who's heard both Mirror to Mirror and Face to Face, hearing this rendition of Sober to Death is a beautiful mixture of the 2 concepts. He hasn't yet revisited the album completely, but he's still looking back on the experience in a different way than he did in 2011. Also, getting to see him play guitar while he's singing is pretty rare in the Naked Giants era, so this was fun to stumble onto. I love Will's writing, his vocals, and his performance, and I look forward to many more releases from them.

He's a great songwriter - that's why he's here. If Bob Dylan was judged solely based on the merits of his singing voice, he probably would never have even gotten a record deal, let alone sell millions of records.

"Here's that voice in your head Giving you shit again But you know he loves you And he doesn't mean to cause you pain Please listen to him It's not too late Turn off the engine Get out of the car And start to walk" I'm glad I stumbled upon this artist. His lyrics/voice/style is honest and real.

I distinctly remember the parking spot I was in the first time I heard CSH. My college boyfriend insisted I watch this Tiny Desk in the car, and I was annoyed that he was shoving his phone in my face. My annoyance turned to intrigue as soon as I listened to the raw, passionate vocals and lyrics. It wasn’t until my summer internship in DC that I became a superfan. I was lucky enough to see them play at Black Cat that very summer - a much smaller venue as it was 2016! What an insanely beautiful encore, and I got to meet Will after the show. After that, I learned their entire discography by heart. Now 8 years later they are still my #1 favorite band. CSH and I have come a long way over the years. Thank you NPR (and my ex-boyfriend, I suppose) for introducing me to my favorite musical artist!

That really means a lot to hear, somehow.. I’m glad you got to see and meet Will Toledo, especially given everything his music must mean to you. You must have been a similar age to him, too.. I’m 10 years younger than him, and it feels eerily like I’m tracing his ghost’s footsteps every day. Like a one-way communication through time.. He’s an incredibly special human being to me and I wish I could meet him, or at least speak to him and let him know there are others, scattered across time and space, whose hearts beat the same as his. I hold others’ feelings with a lot of importance, so thank you for sharing a bit of your humanity here. Somehow, it feels a little less lonely.
