River Whyless - Motel 6 [Lyric Video]

[@justinmiller5280]

This song is an unknown masterpiece.

[@chloe5854]

Painful to listen to

[@Master.blaster1212]

Totally agree. I discovered it tonight and immediately loved it.

[@terywetherlow7970]

Yes. Most of their works are Master pieces, that is.

[@o11ivand3r]

I discovered it a few days ago and I’m already planning out an animation

[@bparks2193]

Yes

[@abigaleriggs4884]

Here in 2023 and found this song through a Spotify playlist. I’m shocked it isn’t a famous song, this is a masterpiece!

[@wishingwell_333]

same exact thing here

[@darris1939]

It does have a ton of views on Spotify tho, it’s just that most people don’t use youtube for music anymore

[@psycheSNAKE]

Spotify is truly a gift that keeps on giving

[@localbeekeeper6754]

What’s the playlist called please

[@clayburnd]

This song speaks to me. My husband died 8 years ago, when I heard this song, "I am terrified of waking up alone." "in my mind, in my mind I can breathe it back to life". It makes me cry....because I could feel the depth of my loss. I am know finding my way on a new path, but when I hear this song, it still makes me cry...

[@RiverWhyless]

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I wish you the best and hope that music still impacts your life in a positive way. Much love to you and I hope to meet you down the road. Best, Ryan

[@DreamwalkerFilms]

He still loves you. He always will. And if you believe, you will be with him again. Much love to you. And know that you are NOT alone.

[@takingflight7656]

This is such a haunting, lovely, perfect song. It just speaks to me on the soul level. I put it up there with "Fade Into You" by Mazzy Star. Just beautiful.

[@tiffanip5047]

I just found this song not too long ago and I fell in love with it.

[@luisfreire4389]

I thought this was a famous song, although 200k views is of course still impressive. Song means a lot to me and helped me through some very low lows. Thanks for making music :)

[@Teddyygallagher]

Any time my depression gets too loud lately, I give this song a listen. Not sure I'd be here without it if I'm honest.

[@KillBill2114]

this song hit me at a time when my wife and I were at our rock bottom...a relationship almost done...and listening now brings it right back. It's heavy. Grateful we're still together and better for it.

[@ashlynnguillot4728]

This is one of the songs that plays in my head when something relevant to the lyrics happens in my life. I found it on my Spotify suggested songs years ago. This is the first time I've looked for the music video, and it's perfectly fitting.

[@adelejordan9204]

[@sadie.c5273]

no one understands how much i love this song. i met the love of my life after hearing this song and every time i hear it i think of him. of us. this song means the world to me

[@mikelowreythefirst]

This is so beautiful. Underrated music and artist at its finest.

[@RecaneYala]

An underrated song. It deserves millions of views. Grateful to have found you guys.

[@samuelsanchezlarios4912]

First time hearing this a few days ago and I absolutely fell in love with it. Especially 1:05 to 1:25

[@ojekunleamusan2163]

I’m a trucker and lost my son through a divorce and this just hits home on so many levels. Thank you 💯

[@jama8045]

sorry brother. Dads are the best. You got this.

[@terywetherlow7970]

I love this group!!

[@tekboi1984]

Just discovered this song on Spotify! Freaking love it.. I can relate to the lyrics.

[@patschmitt1913]

I can’t get this song out of my head. There’s something so visual with vocals that are so haunting and a simple bass melody that is totally intoxicating

[@hazelkatz]

My ex sent me this a few days after we broke up and it’s been 7 months now and not a time goes by that I don’t cry while listening to it..

[@slyffdg4710]

I just found this song 2024, what a beautiful.

[@paradox5795]

Song is so good i wish i found it sooner

[@sebastianbilly1738]

I want to type a profound message, I really do. But nothing I could possibly come up with will properly express how I feel about this song. So for now I'll just say thank you. Thank you for helping me in my journey. Your art has truly made a difference.

[@RiverWhyless]

I'm glad that we're on this journey together. Maybe we'll catch each other further down the road. Ryan

[@marissa5801]

I just heard this song playing at Starbucks in the morning and I seriously haven’t stopped playing it

[@ramiefranklin2561]

That makes 2 of us!! Im glad to hear I'm not the only one that this happened to lol,,..I heard this song some months ago in a Starbucks in downtown Seattle, I tried and tried to find out who it was and finally on January 6th,2021 I walked into a different Starbucks and it was playing, the song was almost over so I rushed over to the speaker in the corner and turned on my Shazam and had to stand on the trash to get it to work, it gave people a good laugh but it had to be done lol.. I've never been so drawn to a group and all their music like I have with River Whyless, not trying to sound all crazy but their music has guided me through alot recently , I cant stop listening to their music, Now I'm just trying to figure out why!

[@claireduffrin9135]

This is the most beautiful song I've heard in a while, I can't wait for the new album

[@SKTheKid]

Deebo's part in "Enigma" brought me here and I'm thankful. Song brings tears to my eyes every time.

[@joshbranning7620]

This expresses things that I didn’t want to remember I felt. You folks make an enjoyable sound. Thank you.

[@PoisonedCannibal]

I was ten when this came out so I cry listening to it remembering a simpler time

[@sincerelyk-od1sp]

bittersweet beauty

[@pathum97]

This song is super underrated. Beyond grateful to have stumbled upon this gem. Thanks guys! amazing stuff!

[@luizcampiglia7135]

Reminds me of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for some reason! Great song!

[@akeemeshan]

gem of a song

[@juwelzbluntz]

one of the greatest songs ever

[@BlinkyB23]

My bf and I heard this song on a "Mountains Playlist" on a recent road trip. This was one of my favorite songs on it! Idk why exactly but it makes me cry. Maybe it's bc the last decade of my life is really catching up to me these days. I've made peace with childhood stuff. I got divorced a few years ago. I love the person I'm with now and want it to work out. I'm trying to navigate a cancer/health scare rn...Idk. Life just never stops coming. This song makes me want to hold on to the good stuff for as long as I can.

[@brendankokeefe]

My brother would be really touched by this. I think it’s the best song he’s written. I’ve been listening to it for years & it still strikes me & for all the reasons you describe, it makes you flash through moments in your life, while turning to face the road ahead.

[@terywetherlow7970]

This group has some of best music I have found during the last period of my life. Tee

what a wonderfu song, Thank you for the cry.

[@nabilarmdhnii1174]

this song reminds me of a best friend that I had for 4 yrs, yet we split up slowly bcs our different path. In my mind I thought I still can save our relationship, but the more I tried to fix it, the worst it became for us. as a 17 yrs old that was the longest friendship I've had.

[@seabassgoog3608]

Please give me some advice. 3 years with the love of my life. All I want to do is speak to her & fix it. She wanted space. 4 months I’ve been miserable

[@juwelzbluntz]

[@tchetchoua79]

​@@seabassgoog3608 She's not tour anymore my Friend, shes just to coward to tell you. Get really good at something and become a version of yourself that you're proud of.

[@nrmdhni6348]

​@@seabassgoog3608how's it going right now? I hope u guys can work it out again. if she needs some space you can give her some space at first, try to communicate slowly and let it flow. don't get overwhelmed, just let it by naturally and clearly. I hope things will eventually get better for you

[@alberichregnare2874]

Lyrics ❤ Long-time lover, have you gone? I left you walking through the parking lot of a Motel 6 As I turned our van back east Somewhere on the road we lost our way In my mind, in my mind I can save us all I can breathe it all back to life In my mind and in my mind, I've spent my whole life movin' I've spent my whole life on a road From a dream, I'm wakin' up And for the first time, I'm terrified of wakin' up alone Within the shade of my delusion I drive into the night I drive into a lie that I deemed worth living all my life And in my hands, a child is dying In my mind, in my mind I can save the boy I can breathe it all back to life In my mind and in my mind I've spent my whole life movin' I've spent my whole life on a road From a dream, I'm wakin' up And for the first time, I'm terrified of wakin' up alone I'm terrified of wakin' up alone
