This song and the Wild Rift Star Guardian event happened the day before my mom first got diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, and she passed away last night. I often played this song throughout the year-long battle, but now there is peace. This morning was a rainy mess, but there was sunshine in the afternoon. I like to think it was her. This song will always have a special place in my heart. ❤️

I know this isn't technically a Nurture song, but it feels so nurture aesthetically (and I fell in love with that album's feel and aesthetic) that I personally consider this a Nurture track, along with extras like Fullmoon Lullaby and Musician part 2

[@delldell6254]

To me,it's kinda pop-like

[@delldell6254]

but it sounds great

[@CyberLucas100]

@@delldell6254 lots of songs in nurture were pop-like. I think Porter is slowly shifting from his EDM era (Spitfire, Worlds, etc) to a more synthpop/lofi-ish one (Nurture). And it's such a nice evolution tbh, I like his current style, it's so good! The next album might go more into it

[@delldell6254]

@@CyberLucas100 yeah

[@orion10x10]

Absolutely, Porter went from like EDM epic nostalgic Anime music to nostalgic slice of life Anime music :P with the Wolf Children soundtrack as his inspiration for it. This would fit perfectly in the Nurture album

[@startailchu]

My dad just passed away unexpectedly two days ago at night after our family having fun in a beach.. It was all great until he suddenly have trouble breathing at night while getting ready to bed and passed away on the way to the hospital. Now the lyrics "I wanna take you to the sea. And when I'm better we'll do everything. I gotta stop making promises I can't keep." hit very hard..

[@フェイリス-d7l]

Probably the most beautifully crafted song I've ever heard of Porter's. The way he sings, the way he writes such beautiful melodies and lyrics and climaxing it with his unique Drum and Bass performance is something out of this world.

[@TaoistDragon]

"We'll do the grieving while I'm by your side" is a line that really hit me. My brother has been in and out of the hospital these last couple of weeks in pretty serious condition. In other words I didn't know if he was going to die and tbh I still don't know. I have more faith now than I did but things are pretty bad still. So that said, I have been going through the grieving process while he is still "by my side". This song though is helping me with that grief. While I'll be heart broken if he does pass this song reminds me that life will continue on. *Edit: my brother is out of the hospital and well. 🙂 Honestly this song amongst other things have really helped me turn things around and life is going pretty fantastic at the moment. *

[@sjatar_]

Man crossing over "Suffering" at 2:40 is such a small but strong imagery. I never realized that "you weren't anymore" could also mean "you weren't suffering anymore". The small changes to lyrics you see really gives another dimension to the song and the emotions it is trying to convey.

[@Aetheric]

Porter did a stems breakdown on this and a little bit into his vocals he's talking about earlier on in the song he was imaging being in a hospital when writing the 43s to 1min ish part of the vocals and that just doubly hits home with what you brought up because it's like they passed. 0:43 - 1:03

[@sjatar_]

@@Aetheric Yes I was watching that yesterday! In the star guardian lore it seems the person devoting their life to become a guardian has to leave their past life and family/friends will forget you. That is probably the passing in this song ^^

[@occultwife.666]

You wrote, "Will you meet me in the daylight like we did before? Then I felt you on my shoulder, and you weren't suffering anymore" for a grieving heart.. thank you. This lyric always brings me to tears

[Lyrics] Don't try to make yourself remember, darling Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told So let's pretend a little longer 'Cause when we're gone Everything goes on Well, you were staring at the window And I said, "I wanna take you to the sea" And when I'm better, we'll do everything I gotta stop making promises I can't keep But if I was gone tomorrow, won't the waves crash on? Is it selfish that I'm happy as we pass the setting sun? Someday I'll be overcast, but you won't have to cry 'Cause we'll do the grieving while I'm by your side I said Don't try to make yourself remember, darling Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told So let's pretend a little longer 'Cause when we're gone Everything goes on And I'm so scared of getting used to this All the vines that keep you tethered in your room Someday both of us are leaving here But for now, I'll just bring to the sea to you, ooh When you meet me in the daylight like we did before Then I felt you on my shoulder, and you weren't suffering anymore You said, "I'm sorry that you worry, but don't apologize" I told you to forget me, but you stayed by my side When I said Don't try to make yourself remember, darling Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told So let's pretend a little longer And when we're gone, ah Everything goes on

[@artexius]

"cause when we're gone, everything goes on" I just can't imagine dying and one day everyone would forget about you.. The World would move forward without you.

[@trumediamix1]

No one is ever truly forgotten in death. Life itself is meant to be concluded in death, and it has many unforeseeable possibilities for it to end. Without death, life can't sustain itself. The dead don't want us to stop for them, but we take our time to bury them or burn them simply because we cared enough about them in life to make their deaths mean something to us before we work to move on. I remember how hard it was to get over my "Grandma Peg's" death, in fact... it fucking sucked because I knew her since I was little and loved her a damn lot. Seeing her on a medical bed in her own home after having fallen down the stairs..? Ate me up for weeks... She died on 1.16.2024... I still have a card with her face and DoB/DoD to help me remember her, I fully admit.

I feel that this song beautifully conveys the fear and sadness of parting with a loved one that we all inevitably face, while also reminding us how truly grateful we should be for the moments we can spend together, using an artistic approach that only he can master. When I was in college, I lost a girlfriend I dearly loved. Now, thanks to this song, I can genuinely look back on our time together with heartfelt gratitude and cherish the good memories we shared. Thank you, Porter, for always moving us with your music. From afar in Japan, I sincerely pray for even greater happiness and success to come your way.

I never heard this song until today when I picked up an overturned card on my bedroom floor which turned out to be a greeting card from my grandmothers funeral from earlier this year. I look down at my phone playing random music and saw the title “Everything Goes On” and began to feel overwhelmed by the synchronicity so I sat on the edge of my bed to look out the window while holding that card with her beautiful photo on it and that’s exactly when the verse “Well you were staring at the window” began and I just totally lost it. I miss you grandma ❤

Also I provide you with my translation in PD licence, so if you agree to my translation, just use mine as you like, Porter-san!) Everything Goes On (long ver.) by Porter Robinson 何も変わりやしないのだから Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling 忘れずにいようとしないで 、愛しい人よ Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told 私を探さないで、あなたにとって私はただの物語なんだよ So let’s pretend a little longer だから後少しだけこの物語に付き合ってよ Cause when we’re gone, だって私達が居なくなっても Everything goes on 何も変わりやしないのだから Well, you were staring at the window 窓の外を眺めるあなたに And I said, “I wanna take you to the sea, 私が言ったんだっけ「あなたを海に連れてってあげたいな And when I'm better, we'll do everything" 私がよくなったら、私達二人はなんだって出来るよ」なんて I gotta stop making promises I can't keep 守れない約束なんてするもんじゃなかったなぁ But if I was gone tomorrow, でも明日私がいなくなったからって Won’t the waves crash on? 波が打ち寄せなくなるわけじゃないじゃない？ Is it selfish that I’m happy, それでも幸せな私って自分勝手なのかな？ As we pass the setting sun? 沈む太陽を追い越しながら感じるよ Someday I’ll be overcast, 私もいつか雲の向こうに行ってしまうけど But you won’t have to cry - 涙を流す必要はないからね Cause we’ll do the grieving だって悲しみを感じるのは While I’m by your side 私が側にいる時だけでいいから I said: 言ったよね Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling 忘れずにいようとしないで 、愛しい人よ Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told 私を探さないで、あなたにとって私はただの物語なんだよ So let’s pretend a little longer だから後少しだけこの物語に付き合ってよ Cause when we’re gone, だって私達が居なくなっても Everything goes on 何も変わりやしないのだから And I’m so scared of getting used to this 慣れていく自分がとても怖いの All the vines that keep you tethered in your room あなたを部屋に縛り付ける無数のツル Well. Someday both of us are leaving here えっと、いつかは私達二人ともここから居なくなる訳だけど But for now I'll just bring the sea to you 今はただあなたにこう言いたい「海を連れてきてあげる」って Will you meet me in the daylight like we did before? 前みたいに太陽の下で待ち合わせしてくれないかな？ Then I felt you on my shoulder, そうしたら私は肩に寄り掛かるあなたを感じられるし And you weren't suffering anymore あなたももう苦しまなくて済むようになるから You said, "I’m sorry that you worried" 「心配させてごめん」なんて But don’t apologize 謝らないでよ I told you to forget me 私のことは忘れてくれって言ったのに But you stayed by my side それでもあなたは側にいてくれたじゃない When I said: あの時私言ったよね "Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling 「忘れずにいようとしないで 、愛しい人よ Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told" 私を探さないで、あなたにとって私はただの物語なんだよ」 So let’s pretend a little longer だから後少しだけこの物語に付き合ってよ And when we’re gone, だって私達が居なくなっても Everything goes on 何も変わりやしないのだから

[@LinkoofHyrule]

good translation but instead of translating it line for line it might have a better flow and fit better if you combined a few lines in the translation due to the difference in word order between japanese and english then again this is for a literal translation of the song and not a cover so I guess that doesn't matter. ありがとう

My grandma, who lives with me, has passed away of old age last night. My family and I spent years of caregiving her and it’s just so bittersweet to finally see her rest in peace.

God damn it man, how do you keep making songs that hurt me so much? The pain of loss and acceptance, the desolation of moving on, the smile to try to keep it together. The last moments before departure. The desperate bargaining to make the future more palatable. All for naught. And the ever present, immutable consolation that their life, this pain, and all the memories that make up our time together will fade as and time continues to tick the world inevitable goes on.

Porter Robinson is "perfectly balanced"

[@mikage0817]

well he does play the game, pretty good at it too

[@growie4802]

Ohh even my favorite terraria youtuber is here too! Nice!

[@leyca178]

I have been using this song to study for my exams now that I know the context this is making me cry.

[@chloskyskies4399]

What context?

[@Fahklevi]

@@chloskyskies4399 maybe the star guardian newest story

[@RMTren]

Listening to this song again after watching Porter break it down on stream really makes me appreciate it more. I can hear more of the details I've missed, and understand what he thought while writing certain lyrics. I wish more artists openly broke down their songs

[@RightClickGamers]

No other artist has made me shed as many tears... of joy, sadness, pain and hope I needed this

[@danma711]

🙏

[@deikay5414]

honestly i prefer this version over the riot mv version, i feel like your intent is much more clear here and you get that closer, more intimate feeling with this one

[@ryrieceratops]

This is my Top 1 Spotify Wrapped 2022 song 😭😭

[@InQieGaming]

same lmao

[@nagekun]

same

[@ryrieceratops]

my top 1 Spotify Wrapped 2023 song as well 😂😂😭😭

[@Roboboy2710]

This song literally never fails to make me misty eyed. It’s incredibly evocative, heartwarming, and gut wrenching. It perfectly embodies “don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”

[@KotauFPS]

There's this particular style of music that makes me shiver and tear up, inciting feelings of nostalgia for a life that I don't even have... this song, as well as Lay your hands on me by Boom Boom Satellites (which I think shares some similarities even within the genre) makes me feel like that for whatever reason. I'm so glad I was able to listen to this track during my life ♥

[@cherrykamino]

When I listen to your music, I feel alive and at peace. Thank you.

[@saishou]

Porter, I hope you know how many broken hearts you've helped save and nurture with your music

[@theobroma_]

Love each of Robinson’s songs from the bottom of my heart Tks for healing me and saving me from my terrible life

[@TheEscapePlan01]

i still prefer worlds over porters new stuff (aka nurture) but i cant deny that nurture and this is still objectively better overall

[@h4ruka-_-isde4d]

finally! a good opinion from a worlds fan that respects nurture! :D

[@ferrethourly7545]

This song helped me to cry out alot. Stay positive everyone.

[@lilsmooch]

These visuals definitely feel like this is gonna be used as the visuals for the live performance of this song, it matches the aesthetic / design of the majority of songs' visuals for Nurture live. Hopefully he'll debut it at Second Sky for his live rendition of the song.

[@JavaDoodles]

who animated this, it's wonderful

[@cathl4953]

Probably Red Dog Culture House, they are credited for the music video

[@zeekee418]

i did

[@magicsack]

​@@zeekee418no, I did.

[@AnkellSounds]

After Shelter, this is another sample of pure talent on his part, since you feel the feeling that Porter had when creating this song, and precisely all that is summarized here, thanks for create such beautiful songs

[@dan_noo]

bruh....the way you pick Shelter and skipped the whole "Nurture" album

[@minyan6214]

Wrong again Porter's song always good in all the time ,and he did have lotta good and perfect song But hey I feel ya bro

[@AnkellSounds]

@@dan_noo I did not rule out nurture because it is an album project, instead if we see the context of singles, this is like the second best after Shelter because it's not in the album

[@AnkellSounds]

@@minyan6214 I know that, that's why I say it's another show of talent, this guy won't get tired of creating good songs, and I'm glad for that :)

[@CyberLucas100]

@@AnkellSounds idk, I still think that Flicker, Sea of Voices, Goodbye to a World, Wind Tempos, Dullscythe (yea, imo at least, love this song) and Unfold are better than Shelter! Don't get me wrong though, Shelter still rocks but I just feel like it overshadows lots of other Porter's works

[@mikage0817]

i just realized: "ill just bring the sea to you" mean they cant go somehow "All the vines that keep you tethered in your room" refers to an IV drip or support machine ~ OMG this is a love story between 2 cronically ill patients, porter robinson's song writing is soooo masterful wow, just wow. 😭

[@lastgamerj132]

I knew you from some songs I played on Osu a long time ago, but never gave your songs that much attention, probably because I'm more of listening to other genres that make me feel adrenaline or powerful. But now this one song of yours touched my heart like no other and I feel like sad and nostalgic since my life is like I just run and run without thinking about the past because I have enough time with all the problems and stuff. That's why I usually listen to other type of music that make feel powerful in order to continue. But now that I finally have some time to think about my steps and how I got where I am... it's too much to process and this song just made me let it all out while I think about everything that's been going this recent years... That's why I wanted to say thank you for this beautiful song, it really helped me a lot...

[@galaxy_izuku_4769]

My friend shared this song with me before she left for the military. She helped me repair my relationship with making friends. I miss her so much I will look on till we can meet again someday.

[@strydex7241]

i get amazed how Porter doesn't miss, the guy just doesn't do a bad song

[@kryeyingface5365]

Your live stream explaining the meaning of the lyrics was so appreciated to me. Life is pretty sweet sometimes, probably wouldn't get a personal perspective like that back then.

[@cindycepeda-tc5bq]

I love listening to this song and I also tribute this song to my mother. It was On Earth Day of 2024 I lost my mom to liver cancer and COVID. It was raining and cloudy I cried so hard and my family was also sad. She was my best mom who gave me many things in life and I love her so much ever since I was born. But now all I can say for my last words to her. " I love you forever Mommy and let us pray for her from heaven" it's time for me to fight the rest of the year without her.💕💖😇🙏

[@KeaneJ123]

Condolences

[@flytothenight]

Porter is entering they prime with this one, these vibes are just top notch and like no other. Truly amazed at how far they have come so far, can't wait to see that's next

[@eyeslikeoceans]

He's evolving! I made a cover with a music video of this, would mean the world to me if you check it out

[@batmanninjafilms]

I'm not crying, you are. Thank you for making music of outstanding quality as always Porter. The sound, vision, stories and messages that each song carries is truly lovely.

[@loris2024]

"This is a masterpiece that reached my true self. That deep I want to share the meaning it has for me. " Since I was eight years old, I have played a unique game with my twin brother, every single night for 15 years. These years are not passed yet, albeit they will by 2023. Every single night, I lay on my bed next to my brother, we both choose to interpret and relate to an existing fictional character (be it taken from an anime, a movie, a manga and so on) and we start playing them just with our voices. We jump into our deep, lonely, silent and unique world created by our crossed minds, a place where everything can happen, a silent dimension thanks to which we escape from our real problems. We give life to amazing fights against fictional character like if they came from the same universe. We started to deeply feel their emotions on daily basis and writing down every single experience since 2015. Despite this, we both know this amazing story won't last for more than it did: one night, it will be our "Last Night" playing together, leaving behind that world we've built in our minds only. This song made my cry after realizing our time is almost over: sometimes I feel like looking for a new job, getting a new career, but then I remember that - if I don't play with my brother NOW - I will never do it again, forever. And I'll regret it. This video makes me feel that mystic jump I do every night after 2AM in our room where there's nothing else but our feelings immersed into the darkness. It reminds me that deep jump that throws me into a world where I can be whoever I want, a place where there's no suffering. I don't need to explain the meaning the entire lyrics has for me: just imagine to play your favourite character with the person you love the most, in a world you created from scratch.The same happened with Shelter, thanks to which I felt like "already being inside that world". I won't ever be able to thank you enough for these songs, Porter: you are my favourite musician of all times. Hope to have made you feel like me everytime I listen to this song. Absolute love from Nothern Italy.

[@KeaneJ123]

porter said that the glassy sound at 1:52 is a stem from his song fellow feeling

[@mikeschmidt4696]

The song is so beautiful that I have to cry each time. I don't know why it hits me so hard

[@hanaarashii]

Невероятно одним словом, вот бы побольше песен с использованием обычного голоса Портера, это прекрасно

[@JumperSvit]

Полностью согласен. Я так рад, что Портер смог поработать с риотами, такой классный буст как для него, так и для компании. p.s Даже не думал, что у Портера есть фаны из ру региона :3

[@Nurimkz1]

++++ круто шо он стал увереннее в своем голосе!!

[@hanaarashii]

@@JumperSvit Мой самый любимый исполнитель, очень активно слежу за ним

[@shadowzain]

@@JumperSvit один из любимейших исполнителей. Слушал ещё до выхода Nurture.

[@bocellivav9627]

Это очередной шедевр, который я явно буду переслушивать на постоянке как и весь альбом Nurture. А ещё максимально неожиданно и приятно стало то, что все таки есть русские, которые наблюдают за его творчеством как и я)

[@matthewgd]

porter first taught me to patiently wait for my time with the line in divinity, "we will wait for this," but then when it reversed and it felt like time was marching against me, he told me "lets pretend a little longer." Ive said this line so many times before something big and uneasy is about to happen and theres nothing i can do about it but live in the moment, and it calms me down. its been nearly two years and i need to speak on this/

[@illythedizzy]

This song makes me cry so hard 😭❤️❤️❤️✨ i still feel so blessed that i made it to your concert in Edinburgh❤️ truly a dream come true❤️

[@christianjusticedy7885]

for some reason this is a move on song for grief of someone's passing, everything moves on, time is such a beautiful yet scary entity.

[@LuckyBearVlogs]

Finally! The official full version here in KZbin! Thanks for all of your wonderful music Porter! 😄 I don't even play League of Legends but this music along with Star Guardian's promo video got me hooked with its lore! ❤

[@nezuchizu]

listening to this after watching the first episode of Oshi No Ko has given me an entirely new reason to cry to this
