[BehelitKeeper]

cant believe i just found pinegrove this week. ive been listening to this song every day and old friends, problems, need 2.

[Bearsarepeople]

I'VE LEARNED SO MANY WORDS LISTENING TO PINE GROVE!

[livvoce]

I'm writing a 20-25 page research paper on aphasia and like I just want to say thank you for making this song and titling it aphasia because it's truly relieving my stress

[tomamaria]

This song was my only friend in winter 2018. Thank you for being there for me.

[rachaelgayle]

I get so emotional when I hear Pinegrove. The songs are genuine I love them much.

[Peamush]

It's amazing how there's 3 minutes of playing the same chords over and over but you wouldn't necessarily know that from the way he's performing it

[efraz]

easily one of the most beautifully written songs and performance Ive seen in a while, Im hooked

[david-xxii]

Is it just me or does he start feeling the song and get teary eyed, he changes his tone and sound super sad towards the end unlike the studio version, honestly this is the best version

[jjjjjjcooljuice]

2:40 BUT IF I DONT HAVE YOU BY ME THEN WILL GO UNDERGROUND

[dangerc]

One day I won't need your love. One day I won't define myself by the one i'm thinking of.

[mcbacondfan]

this song is so fucking special to me. It was really weird because I got in a traumatic accident about a month ago and had to be sedated in the ER. They gave me a bunch of ketamine and I remember having this completely dissociative near-death trip thing where I was floating away from life on this earth as I knew it, but this song was playing start to finish in my K-hole. at the time, my relationship was falling apart and I realized I was losing someone i loved so deeply and didn’t quite know why. so my polo team was the only thing i had to keep me busy, but during a game in this huge tournament where I was playing the best i’d ever played, I fell and broke my arm super bad and h it my head. so it was pretty surreal, losing this girl i loved and losing the ability to do the other things that kept me sane—playing sports and school. after the hospital, like literally 2 weeks after, pinegrove was playing in sacramento so i went to go see them. i couldn’t figure out why the fuck this song had played very clearly in my k-hole. Then, I finally got sat down and kind of analyzed it. in my very biased opinion, Aphasia is this bittersweet anthem to moving on from a deep attachment (there are both references to a relationship and the idea of moving thru life quietly and blindly) and finding a deep peace. it’s introspective and wistful, but ultimately rejoices in the absurdity and impermanence of life and love.

i’m so grateful this song exists because I didn’t think anyone could ever put words to all of these feelings i’ve been having. it’s helped me process my breakup and injuries better than my therapist has 😂

this song has helped me so much since I found it. I listen to it every single day like medication. it helps me realize how little the things I say matter but at the same time if I don't say what im thinking it makes a huge difference on my self. I think way too much and say way too little wich mostly is a good thing but I am super awkward around people and this song explains how I feel perfectly I have been trying to put it into words forever and I've looked up aphasia and that's not me but I think he's using that as a way to describe how he is not saying he has it but idk maybe. anyway I love pine Grove I heard this song in cardinal and fell in love and the way he sings and plays is mezmerizing you can SEE the feeling in his music. I hope you all find yourself. im definitely on the way. more than I was before I found this song. love you all (:

Wait a minute. I clicked on this video months ago thinking this was a cover of a song I had never heard of and have since added this song to a playlist on Spotify and listen to it all the time. Is this not a cover!? It’s an original!? Amazing. So lovely.

[fayhartless]

Still coming back daily to listen to this song at least 3 times. I can't stop

[jackheron]

so satisfied i said a lot of things tonight
so long aphasia and the ways it kept me hiding
it's not so much exactly all the words i used
it's more that i was somehow down to let them loose

so complicated i can't wait to get explaining
your listening descended out since i've been crying
so long aphasia and the ways it kept me hidden
so long to silent nerves and hesitant oblivion

you came and sent me out unfurling in the street
i felt unprecedented confidence in speaking
stick around i'm thinking things'll be alright
newly delivered, won't you live with me tonight

something tonight was such a letdown on my pride
it takes a part of me i don't got to take some things in stride, i'd
pace around her place so quiet in myself
wake the next and see my silence went unfelt

just when i thought i had this pattern sorted out
apparently my ventricles are full of doubt
nah, if things go wrong sometimes don't let it freak you out
but if i don't have you by me then i'll go underground

nah but what you got was in your reaches all along
plus one day you'll be reaching for me and i'll be gone
so to help remind myself i wrote this little song
one day i won't need your love
one day i won't define myself by the one i'm thinking of
and if one day i won't need it
one day i won't need it

1:27 that switch to pick is sooo smooth

I'm 37 years old, am a huge fan of music... no ego attached, but have a very versatile knowledge of various music genres and about 2 months ago this became my favorite song ever. I'm in awe of the song writing, which I've never been that good at. Everything about this song is untraditional and that's what makes it shine. You can tell this is from the heart. If that ends up not being the case, please don't tell me, because I can't tell and I like where my music life is at the moment. Thank you for this song and Old Friends.
