I'm a year late but I'm still replying to say: yes it is incredible. It's a silly thing to say because of the impossibility and yet... JD delivers the line in a way that makes you *believe* him, just a little. Furthermore, "You may only hold this thought for a second or so..." always makes me chuckle. I guess I find humor in the accuracy of the statement. I was never a tweaker but I, um... dabbled. I (unfortunately) understand what he means: how thoughts pop up and then vanish in an instant, only to be replaced with different thoughts that vanish and get replaced, again and again and again... oof. It's not a headspace I ever want to revisit but it's one I'll never forget.

He's a no one from the future remembering that you're gone (referencing Night Light)

Yeah , same

Intentions count for something

Nope not my day either

No shit. I usually cringe and am leary to click on live videos cuz it's usually shit audio from somebody's iPhone. But this is perfection.

Why are you Verified?

him and elliott both

I lived there for eight years. I'm nobody special but I left some of my own ghosts there. I don't know why, but Portland really lends itself to that kind of thing.

@@MsFuzzipoo FOR REAL LMAO

@@MsFuzzipoo I barely lived there a few months and it changed me. I hope I die there, not here.

@@howtomeetwomen- it's a weird town, in many ways. It's sadly gentrified like mad since I lived there, but the city is still there underneath the fancy condos.

Source? Because I'm absolutely certain that Shelved is Peter's ONLY lead part in Goths. They have pretty different voices and I'm hearing John on lead for all of Cocaine and Peter doing harmonies

bass and no, that is not what a good voice sounds like

He actually was stripped of his name as part of his immigration process. it’s a sad story.

​@@billzsigray1504can I hear the story?

This is like five years too late, but if you like his vocals, Peter Hughes does have a solo album called Fangio

im replying to this 30 seconds later...its actually been 15+ years...time flies, enjoy every second of it...

@@ericsb474 i learned what this whole record was about from hearing this song the first time I put the record on... in recovery from a several month meth binge after my divorce, wherein I had been introduced to Tallahassee. I was hungry for more mountain goats, and coincidence is wild sometimes.

As someone who has, don't. Cherish stability. You may never get it back. Hell's gates are locked from the inside.

The stability this world offers is just a monotonous hell that damns you to dwell on your own pain... It prompts you to construct prisons in your mind that you can't escape from, a dangerous life is atleast a life lived, not a life wasted away trapped inside your own head...

Not really, but nice try.

Agreed, they needed to turn down his mic, he’s louder than John and it turns the harmony into the dominant melody

I know right

Mitch Hedberg meets John Darnielle

and here today I'm in a hospital, 7th day in, from a surgery I thought was only a dream back in those days. because of that, this video means a whole lot more than I can describe. I have tears in my eyes.

How are you now, a year later?

@@slysawyer5022 what surgery, if you care to share with us? Just wondering if it's the same surgery I think is only a dream...

@@FriendOfTrashPandas You might be surprised. Things turned out well. I hope that you can live your dreams. Life is so strange.

It’s been years now and I’m doing much better thank you. I still come back to this video.
