“October Sky”
Well she slid down the hall in her socks & yelled “come outside!...
No no no, nothings wrong
I just happen to have a surprise.”
So we fell through the door like the autumn leaves
And I wrestled my brother down to his knees
Just to watch as her rocket shot into the
So we fell through the door like the autumn leaves
And I wrestled my brother down to his knees
Just to watch as her rocket shot into the
October Sky
There’s a picture of us
In a layer of dust
On the mantle,
right by my cigarettes that I smoke
Since you left
Cause you said you had to fly
In your October Sky,
La da di da da da di
Now I work in the city & I blend into the crowd
& the people grieve with me since the towers came down.
You could cut the pollution with a butterknife
You could wake up at 2 and then party all night
But I’m missing my momma so I’ll stand on the street and get high.
There’s a picture of us

La da di da da da di

There’s a picture of us
In a layer of dust
On the mantle,
right by my cigarettes that I smoke
Since you left
Cause you said you had to fly
In your October Sky,
La da di da da da di
As I go back home to Memphis,
I remember days that I
Was outside shooting rockets
Almost as high
In your october...
Your October...
October..
In your October Sky,
La da di da da da di

October Sky builds a quiet symphony around a particularly potent memory of Yebba’s mother-a high school science teacher who sometimes brought home the bottle rockets her students had constructed for class. “I wrote this whole story about remembering her sliding down the hall and telling us ‘Come outside we’re shooting off bottle rockets,’” Yebba explains. “That memory came to me and the words just spilled out: this story of her and the promise that she broke, in a way, because she killed herself in October. I genuinely feel like she was standing there in the room with me as I was writing it, in my studio apartment in Brooklyn.”

I wish I could comfort her the way I comfort my own, but nothing will ever replace the loss.

What a fucking tremendous blessing to receive. And to think how the pain of her mother’s passing was transmuted into such powerful healing and beautiful word sounds being spread far and wide for us all. I fuck with Yebba forever.

Brilliantly done. Not a lot of comments about the "Alone" reference, which works so well at the end of this song. Yebba takes the (vi IV I V) chord progression [normally played once at the end of of the chorus, starting at the word "sky" and including several "la da da" vocalizations], but changes it in the final chorus so that the progression repeats and morphs into "Alone" with the lyrics hitting even harder than they ever did in Heart's original version. Just expertly done live musicianship.

I'm 62 and my chronological musical discography has been T-Rex, Elton John, Bowie, Jazz-funk , Jazz, all the greats from Miles Davis, Coltrane, to more contemporary artists like Chris Potter and Snarky Puppy, Robert Glasper along with many R&B artists like Jill Scott, Mary J, Erykah Badu, etc but my favorite genre has to be Jazz because of its ability to fuse all the aforementioned styles. However, 2 bands/singers Yebba and Hiatus Kaiyote have opened up a whole new genre that has given me joy listening to them and renewed my thirst for original, new, exciting music.

Never would have expected a single song to weave together two of the most tragic events of my life. I lived in Brooklyn when 9/11 happened. Lost a couple friends from our local fire house who were first responders. Also witnessed a family friend fight to survive 3rd degree burns sustained when she ran out the exit doors of Tower #2 as it collapsed. The other event is unspeakably horrible, can't put the details in writing, but I was a first responder to my dear cousin's suicide. There exists simultaneously intimate minutia of each event yet at the same time an unfathomable, incomprehensibly abstract vapor wrapped around them, mocking rational thought, just out of explanation's reach. Why, how, what if. So incredibly personal but as universal and transcendent literally as life and death. I think this is the first time in my 60 years that I've heard a song even come close to conveying this. Thank you.

Dear Yebba, My mother died at the very height of the jacarandas flowering abundance on 21st November 2012 (Sydney). I don’t really know how I survived it all, shielding my young children from my pain, letting them express all their needs, and keeping their lives child focussed and happy was intense. I needed a mother my whole life. Being young, and a primary teacher and mother of young children. My Mum was my only other living adult family member (I am the only child of two migrants and am a single parent). There have been a number of intergenerational family suicides, and a grandfather taken away to the asylum forever. No one talked about the suicide and mental health impacts inside or outside of my family. I have felt alone with it. Listening to music, and others' musical outpouring has been an endless relief. Especially your visceral music Yebba! Yet in reality, my Mum was as needy as an infant, and also as brittle and fragile as broken glass. Over her life Mum had many suicide attempts, and had wanted to go for years. I did everything I possibly could to make her happy, and never could. My childhood was walking on eggshells, always trying to please and help her and lift her spirits. Mum was artistic, a great writer, intelligent, but totally self absorbed and lived with the bottle to numb her mind. Decades later she even asked her friend, and my young children to help her achieve her death wish. The morning after she died, I sat outside on my balcony garden. Immediately giant dragonflies Giant dragonflies (ABC Sciencewww.abc.net.au/science/articles/2005/02/03/2575942.htm ) flew and sat on my cup. For the next few days whenever I was outside, as I sought comfort in nature, giant dragonflies came and settled right beside me. With their huge multifaceted eyes. There had not been rain to attract them? Nor was I prey? Yet they selectively (Dragonflies have human-like 'selective attention' -- ScienceDaily www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/12/121220143224.htm ) followed me from one spot to the next. I was enraptured. Y E B B A hearing your stunning songs. So beautiful, I could listen to you for hours…. I really do adore your songwriting and voice!…..and noticing your dragonfly tattoo allowed my tears to silently flow for the idea of my mother, noting I will never have that need met. The dragonfly on your hand awoke me to the memory of peace and communing with dragonflies and nature. It feels like yesterday that I became a motherless mother, and yet, so long ago too. Yebba a big hug to you xox you are doing great things and I wish you the very best of the best! xoxo Warmest Regards Sez. Your dragonfly tattoo also inspired me to nerd out and do a little dragon fly research scientific and other… The dragonfly signifies a path to new world's. They are about transformation and a change in perspective, maturity, depth of character, power and poise. A dragonfly encourages you to dive into your emotions and asks your spirit to soar with your true colors. Have you seen a dragonfly in the sunshine? It is gorgeous! What do dragonflies mean? A dragonfly asks us to break free from our illusions. As it reflects light, it asks us to reflect our inner light.

I didn’t know why I was crying after listening to this song (I literally just discovered Yebbas music a few minutes ago after a JoJo interview on MTV news) I skimmed through the comments section for more background on these lyrics. My dad left on an October Sky on 10/29/94 his suicide took a lot of years to heal from. I felt EVERY word and note 📝 in this masterpiece. 😌🙏 Thank you!

No one sings loss like you, Yebba. And that's because you're a true artist. Forget that your voice is perfection, forget that you're a talented songwriter, forget that you have a musical style that's all your own. It's your ability to sing from your soul and touch our souls and spirits. And that's the magic, magic that only a few artists possess. I hope your music is brings you as much healing and beauty as it brings us. With love.

My mother is still here and I have not been personally impacted by suicide like so many have. I am a fellow musician and singer, however. And your writing and your vocals are so moving and honest, I have been in a slump thinking about your sweet Mama and how much you must've loved her. I know these songs will help so many who have experienced this. In the meantime, I will be an empathetic bystander. LOVE the album, I've been playing it on shuffle since I downloaded it. Thank you for getting your music out for all of us to hear.

He's a brave soul. 😂
