This song saved my life. It pushed me to seek help for my major depression that almost killed me. I’m SO grateful for artists like Band of Horses, that raw emotion is what i needed most ❤ This song will always always hold a special place in my heart, forever.
Lyrics: Small talk with a registered nurse Not to cry in front of people at work Well, that's hard, hard, hard at times, you know You get reminded of the earlier days The end of April '78 That was a long, long, long, long time ago And you showed a lot of warning signs You made dramatic situations mine Now your problem is mine You don't want help You don't need me You don't look well And you don't want anything You don't want anything Slim pickings when the weather is snow Pretty winded on a bicycle It's been quite, quite, quite, quite a row to hoe A hot dinner on a souvenir plate The part of town where the money ain't But things are fine, fine, fine, we're on our own And we don't want help We don't take handouts We won't seek sympathy And we don't want anything We don't want anything, we don't Get reminded of the earlier days (get reminded of the earlier days) April '78 ('78) Long, long, long, long time ago And you keep it bottled up inside And let it out from time to time Yeah, the problem's mine I don't want help (I don't want help, I don't want help) I don't want counseling (I don't want, I don't want, I don' want) I won't go to therapy I won't do anything, oh
This is a masterpiece. It is so relatable to anyone who has dealt with mental trauma, as the victim, the caregiver, or both at the same time. Thank you for bringing this song into the world, Ben. Take care of yourself, okay?
@@zachrawlings6523 the melody of the tune in this song has an Erie feeling. I can understand the PTSD aspect your getting in association to this song. Thats what most excites me with it. An ominous lingering notion that we are not in control. But pawns in a much larger chess game. Thank you Band Of Horses for keeping me on my toes
@@zachrawlings6523 we all have "control" to an extent. But there will always be unforseen things we can't control but only contribute to. Nobody wants to create anxieties. But for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. We all essentially create our own anxiety and struggle with every decision we make. I'm grateful for my anxiety and discomfort because it reminds me that things and times can change and that I can grow and maybe one day overcome that said anxiety
how do they remain so freaking great over the years?!! i'm screaming! there's literally not one album that i would pass up. they maintain their original sound since "the funeral" so greatly. i love them so much. there cd's are a must buy. cheers to one of the greatest bands out there. i am and forever will be at peace as long as there music is in my life. 🧚🏽♂️❤️ i will always keep them in my heart.
What do you guys think the meaning of the song is? 1st of all I love this song and this band! I think it's about his struggle to accept the passing of time and his depression that comes from that struggle.
@@Clacio10 On first listen this was immediately a BOH all-time fave for me. Even hits harder than the first time I heard The Funeral ... 16 years ago (oof).
Damn, this song reminds me of my previous marriage. She had issues/warning signs and didn’t get help. Then the divorce messed me up and then I didn’t want help either. Lots of shit bottled up. Glad to say I’m great now but it was a struggle for years. BOH is great at making real life into a beautiful song.
That last chorus, at the end of the song, that's when they're really flying! Like the instrumental part of Laredo. This is already one of my favorite BoH songs. ❤️
@@user-bo4km6pp7c oh yes. There’s a man so heavily surrounded by growing and bushes and weeds he can’t see the present anymore, so he turns back to the past on those videos. I’m not sure whether this is really the story of the video, but it feels like this for me, and I feel touched Deeply inside
it usually takes time before I really like new albums for some reason. I like 6-7 songs on this one already, good sign. "Lights" is one of BoH's best ever
This song is SO incredibly good: the lyrics, the riffs, the vocal lines and foremost the songwriting and production in general. Congratulations BOH, you've created another true gem.
I have been around the band since 2007, probably earlier. It’s an odd one. This song literally hits home more than the most. I do not need therapy. I just need someone to understand the emotions this song bring. Thanks, Ben, and the rest of the band. You keep understanding all the feelings I go through… and thanks for giving me that serotonin I need.
Heaving listended to that heartwarming song about 30 times I did now watch this video. I dont know if it was intended or just playful coincidence but to me it is a wonderful piece about not being able to see and feel things anymore and suddenly escaping to the past, where you could laugh, feel, jump - and fly like an eagle. This video stands in a line with Alphaville's "soul messiah", Mick Jagger's "hard women", Bowie's "where are we now" and Meat Loaf's "objects in the review mirror may appear closer than they are". There are many great songs in the world - bot only few great music-videos can really cope with the feelings transported in the music: This is one of them; I can see life's tragedy and joy behind the flickering pixels. The last scene with the grave on the chair is hard to stand because it's so damn true, you're gonna die if you keep clinging to the past - but may be you are there then. Congratulations!
As far as i'm concerned BOH can do no. Wrong, from the first time I heard them in 2006 listening to some college radio station in my car until forever, my wife and I are always with them, thanks for sharing your self's with all of us!!
Such a soaring, nostalgic inducing masterpiece, brought me to tears; everything I could ask for from a Band of Horses tune. Thanks guys for all the amazing songs over the years. 🖤
The melody and vocals of this are so beautiful, and the lyrics and video are so heart-wrenching, it makes my stomach hurt. How can a humanoid made of dirt evoke such sympathy? Haven't been able to watch this yet without crying.
Often, I wonder where these bands (and myself) would be in life without Sub Pop Records.. Nirvana, Soundgarden, Sunny Day Real Estate, Death Cab For Cutie, The Shins, Grand Archives, Blitzen Trapper Fleet Foxes, Wolf Parade, Handsome Furs, The Head and the heart, Beach House, Father John Misty, The Postal Service, Band Of Horses, Flight Of The Conchords etc. etc. Truly some of the greatest talents of the last 30 years. Coincidence? I think not.
You guys never cease to amaze me. It’s crazy how you always make me feel nostalgic and this song is no different. I’m so glad you’re still making new music
Again, I mean it when I say I am so proud of what this album became, the roots really show while keeping the sound fresh. Been a follower of you Ben since Carissa Wierd days, and I remember when you and Mat started Band of Horses. Gonna be spinning this for Months to come, thanks guys.
I've been loving BoH for years and years and years and i love them as much now as i did then. every album they have released except for maybe Mirage Rock correlated to what was happening in my own world, BOH has been the soundtrack to my life. they are one of my favorite bands well, between them and my morning jacket idk if i could choose between the 2. Window Blues, that song is felt deeply in my soul
Wow, I feel the exact same. Almost every album has correlated to a special or important time period in my life and reflected the things I wad going through at the time too. BoH is literally the soundtrack to my life.
Great song! This one, "tragedy of the commons", "crutch", "aftermath" and "ice night were having" are amazing songs, and i'm so glad Band of horses found their songwriting skills back after some not so memorable albums.
Driving on the freeway at night blasting Band of Horses, that's my therapy. Forget everything for a while and just escape.
This song saved my life. It pushed me to seek help for my major depression that almost killed me. I’m SO grateful for artists like Band of Horses, that raw emotion is what i needed most ❤ This song will always always hold a special place in my heart, forever.
Same here. What an eerie tune. This entire album has saved me more than once. It came to us when we needed to hear it. Thanks BoH.
I don't know you but I wish and hope for you all the best :)
Welcome to the stable
Omg! This warmed my heart so much. My life is saved DAILY by music.
Anger with no direction reflects inward. Reply here with a brief description of your pain for good targets of your anger.
All of the souls in the history of the world are rooting for you. All of your past generations are with you. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
Lyrics:
Small talk with a registered nurse
Not to cry in front of people at work
Well, that's hard, hard, hard at times, you know
You get reminded of the earlier days
The end of April '78
That was a long, long, long, long time ago
And you showed a lot of warning signs
You made dramatic situations mine
Now your problem is mine
You don't want help
You don't need me
You don't look well
And you don't want anything
You don't want anything
Slim pickings when the weather is snow
Pretty winded on a bicycle
It's been quite, quite, quite, quite a row to hoe
A hot dinner on a souvenir plate
The part of town where the money ain't
But things are fine, fine, fine, we're on our own
And we don't want help
We don't take handouts
We won't seek sympathy
And we don't want anything
We don't want anything, we don't
Get reminded of the earlier days (get reminded of the earlier days)
April '78 ('78)
Long, long, long, long time ago
And you keep it bottled up inside
And let it out from time to time
Yeah, the problem's mine
I don't want help (I don't want help, I don't want help)
I don't want counseling (I don't want, I don't want, I don' want)
I won't go to therapy
I won't do anything, oh
When they opened for the Black Keys, this song made me an instant fan. LOVE!
Criminally underrated band. Been listening back when funeral came out.
I wish this song were six years long.
I saw band of horses open for pearl jam instead of going to prom 12 years ago and now I'm seeing BoH again! Before pearl jam!
This is such classic Band of Horses. The lyrics, his voice, and the insane riffs. Fits right in with the old stuff.
This is a masterpiece. It is so relatable to anyone who has dealt with mental trauma, as the victim, the caregiver, or both at the same time. Thank you for bringing this song into the world, Ben. Take care of yourself, okay?
They BETTER play this song when I see them in October at Dos Quis pavilion. It’s mesmerizing. Pure beauty. I relate.
"You don’t want help ... You don’t need me." Beautiful and heartbreaking. These new songs are so dang good.
Band of Horses is more than a band. Its your soul, set to music.
I couldn't agree more. ❤
Man, as a married guy, it’s awful difficult to not identify with these lyrics. Shit is raw and straight forward.
This song gave me a light and the hard days I over come I played this all the time
This song absolutely made me feel like the first time I ever listened to The Funeral, absolutely in love the Band of Horses.
Wow. What a song.
Such a special band.
This band. SHOULD BE HUGE !!!! Gx
One of the most underrated bands ,,,, AND AMAZING LIVE ,,,, beautiful sounds ,,, utter class. Gx
Bro that last verse in this gives me chills everytime. Feels like he put his whole heart and soul into that part.
I take this as a Gen X anthem. My parents growing up in the 70s-80s-90s
One of the best songs I've heard. Don't know much about the group or their music.
I remember the funeral when it first came out. This new song gives me the same chill down my spine. It's so natural and raw.
Yes! This definitely feels like The Funeral again, with more age and scars.
The Funeral always triggers my ptsd, but i love it. This song feels completely necessary.

Depression is the unlucky sister of poetry
My brother may he rip was the first to introduce me to them. I feel his spirit close when I hear there songs. Feels, he was 27. Harry B.
I have a loved one I think of while listening to this music as well. It helps...
-=💜=-
This. This is the BoH i fell for 2009. Thank you for your music.
One of the best Band of Horses tracks ever. Top 10 for me. Really moving. It instantly hooked me.
Amen brother!
how do they remain so freaking great over the years?!! i'm screaming!
there's literally not one album that i would pass up.
they maintain their original sound since
"the funeral" so greatly.
i love them so much. there cd's are a must buy.
cheers to one of the greatest bands out there. i am and forever will be at peace as long as there music is in my life. 🧚🏽♂️❤️ i will always keep them in my heart.
This song is epic on so many levels......Can't stop listening
I'm obsessed with this song. What a masterpiece!
This song is just as epic as the funeral . I heard this song 4 times in a row . How does this song not have more views
I absolutely agree. I was going to use the funeral for a video but after I heard this awesome track I thought why not use this? It’s just as good 👍
Because people suck. Most wouldn't know good music if it ran them over. These guys are really, really good
Give it time! Epic Track!
What do you guys think the meaning of the song is? 1st of all I love this song and this band! I think it's about his struggle to accept the passing of time and his depression that comes from that struggle.
So rare that I enjoy a song this much the first time hearing it.
Hauntingly beautiful. A true epic from the Band.
Band of of Horses are back baby what a song...
My immediate reaction: Their best song since Everything All the Time. Awesome feels.
For me this is probably their best song ever but I’m sure many will disagree
@@Clacio10 On first listen this was immediately a BOH all-time fave for me. Even hits harder than the first time I heard The Funeral ... 16 years ago (oof).
the world is a better place with the Band of Horses in it ... this song is extremely good
Damn, this song reminds me of my previous marriage. She had issues/warning signs and didn’t get help. Then the divorce messed me up and then I didn’t want help either. Lots of shit bottled up. Glad to say I’m great now but it was a struggle for years. BOH is great at making real life into a beautiful song.
One of the greatest bands of my generation! Im obsessed😃
That last chorus, at the end of the song, that's when they're really flying!
Like the instrumental part of Laredo.
This is already one of my favorite BoH songs. ❤️
Intoxicating! Just took a mental road trip. Took me back to the first time I heard BOH. I'm going to have this on repeat the rest of the day. ✌️
I felt the exactly same way!!
My thoughts exactly!
@@user-bo4km6pp7c oh yes. There’s a man so heavily surrounded by growing and bushes and weeds he can’t see the present anymore, so he turns back to the past on those videos. I’m not sure whether this is really the story of the video, but it feels like this for me, and I feel touched Deeply inside
Intoxicating for real and everything i want in a music video the mental imagery fantastic, emotion raw,
AAAAAHHHH the music! Bravo!
Found this band through S.O.A. I couldn’t be happier.
Timing was right for this song. Band of Horses amazes me with their sound and originality. Thank you Ben for continuing to create.
Slim pickings when the weather is snow- My fav line!!!
Seeing them tomorrow so excited 😊 🤗 🤪 😃 😄 😛
Wow. Lovely tune. I appreciate a band (horses or otherwise) who sticks with their sound, no need to reinvent the wheel every five years.
By far the best BOH song in years.
Hearing that first verse instantly took me back to when I first heard and loved Band of Horses. Such a great album.
Loving this amazing sound from Band of Horses. Damn I love this band.
it usually takes time before I really like new albums for some reason. I like 6-7 songs on this one already, good sign. "Lights" is one of BoH's best ever
This song is SO incredibly good: the lyrics, the riffs, the vocal lines and foremost the songwriting and production in general.

This is As Band of Horses as can be. And amazing
I have been around the band since 2007, probably earlier.
It’s an odd one. This song literally hits home more than the most. I do not need therapy. I just need someone to understand the emotions this song bring.
Thanks, Ben, and the rest of the band. You keep understanding all the feelings I go through… and thanks for giving me that serotonin I need.
Me and wife are living a down counting to BOH tour. We can't wait to feel this song in live
It’s been a long time since I saw a music video that made me feel more connected to a song. This was awesome.
Thanks for continuing to exist. Respect from Strong City.
This band is just amazing. And this is coming from a Punk rocker since ‘91. Love them.
Crushingly real. We can all associate this with someone, and how it effects ourselves. Amazing work!
as if I didnt love them enough, this has been in heavy rotation for the past few months, seeing them in Boston tonight! 🙏

After all these years I’m still listening to them they’ve ye to disappoint me
Just my kind of rock and roll! Band of Horses will always be my favorite music. Meditative, electric and timeless all at once. ❤️
The melody and vocals of this are so beautiful, and the lyrics and video are so heart-wrenching, it makes my stomach hurt. How can a humanoid made of dirt evoke such sympathy? Haven't been able to watch this yet without crying.
Song of the year for 2022, just incredible
This song makes me feel emotions i’ve never felt before
Often, I wonder where these bands (and myself) would be in life without Sub Pop Records..
Nirvana, Soundgarden, Sunny Day Real Estate, Death Cab For Cutie, The Shins, Grand Archives, Blitzen Trapper

Mecca Normal
This band always comes thru for me. Always. So , thanks Ben
Such a great song, Funeral is my favorite Band of Horses song but after hearing this song on the radio went looking for the video! Loving this!💜
This makes waiting 6 years so worth it. Perfect song!!
Been a fan since 09, saw them live and might have been the best set at Voodoo 2016, see them while you can!
Love this song!!

Discovered this band watching the Danny Mckaskill video with The Funeral, seen them live 4 times and they are amazing.
You guys never cease to amaze me. It’s crazy how you always make me feel nostalgic and this song is no different. I’m so glad you’re still making new music

Way back home got me hooked

Top music,i love the songs of the band of horses,brazil,São Paulo.
