    I'm at the worst moment of my life: depression, anxiety and psychotic breakdown. And Jason Molina is here with me.

    Please don’t ever stop what you’re doing, having a digital library of all these more obscure and difficult to find recordings is so important.

      I started uploading vids for myself, a library of sorts of my favorite from the archives. Then people started viewing, commenting, & subscribing. I do it now for people like you. Jason Molina forever

    Molina's music has saved my life too many times to count. This song in particular always spoke to me... you are not helpless. Jason was a gifted soul, thank you for uploading these.

    There's no single "best Molina song" but if there were, this would be a contender. Thank you Unibrow Ghost, for uploading and sharing today, especially.

      I started on farewell transmission. Now I like you can’t pinpoint. My wife like just be simple. Recent I’ve been feeling ol grace and John Henry split my heart. I love that title. It’s stuck in my head. Check out Vic chestnut for another great artist. Even shadows have shadows

      if i had to pick, this would be it. "bluechicagomoon" is my preferred username for accounts now that i ran out of hood songs (one of which is "girl called heaven").

    • @EliWeatherfield
      @EliWeatherfield Před 5 měsíci +3

      @@doomwalker2434I was wrong. It's EADFC(e). Probably no high e string on his guitar here. Intro: xx002x - x0244x, Main Chords: x3x24x - x5x45x - 57777x. The little embellishments are mostly played on the C string. You can however also play it in standard: x3555x (C) - x5774x (Dm) - 577585 (Am7), with the embellishments still in reach on the b string. Hope this helps.
