2024 where are you guys🎉

2024...anyone?

"It Only Gets Much Worse" was another song written in the shower. I've always been a fan of referencing past song titles in current ones (i.e. Why Am I The One) and I found IOGMW particularly amusing. I first started the demo as a fun song and went into the studio w Andrew to lay down some piano and vocals. He wrote some phenomenal Nilssonesque bridge chords that I wrote the bridge melody to. At the time, I never really wrote any lyrics other than the chorus- I just had a melodic mumbling in place on the demo, and as we started building it in the Grand Ro sessions, I realized that I really wanted someone else's help and opinion in finishing up the words. In the meantime Roger Manning Jr. did a phenomenal job on the strings. The song was completely done but I still hadn't written lyrics. I wanted this one to be particularly good. My friend Sloane Crosley was in LA the same time I was there recording- and we met up for a drink one night. She was leaving the next day, but I begged her to stay an extra night and finish the lyrics with me. I've never written lyrics with anyone other than P!nk on JGMAR, and that was "her" song- so I was a little more willing to take a back seat. I think there was a part of me that felt really challenged by Sloane being a published author that compelled me to really work hard on finishing it with her. We had a wonderful and strenuous time. But in the end they're some of my favorite lyrics I've ever written. Fortunately there was a beautiful song to sing them to once they were done.

Nate Ruess I love your songs! But the one that's more stuck in my mind is We are young, Some nights, Nothing without love, Give me a reason & this one, It only gets much worse!" Your a great singer! I think you did more fabulous on the Give me a reason. Great voice too!

Nate Ruess One of my favourites (though it is hard to pick!) on Grand Ro. You really did make a great cohesive album - as one song fades I can hear the notes of the next one starting in my head.

Nate come back please I need more of your music it's amazing

who wants nate ruess and fun to return ?

This actually moved me to tears. Nate just pours his heart and soul into every song and I can always feel it. I love his music so much, and this is one of my favorites.

this song kills me inside but like okay?????????????????????????

A pure born vocalist.....he sings like its the end of life. While i celebrate him, i wonder how come he's not a celebrity like the others we used to. Swaziland down south of South Africa is full of love for you my brother

ridiculously beautiful

Man I miss Nates singles and FUN so much. Honestly he's my favorite singer ever...

I remember when fun broke into the lime light and "we are young" and "some night" were popular songs on the radio but I had no clue who Nate Ruess was. Years later he is my favorite singer and I admire the hell out of him. What an amazing voice and such talent for writing songs, I adore him so much.

Still here. I remember when he went to Manila and that i bought tickets few minutes before the concert. i think it was the best decision i made in my life. Hearing him sing live is a dream come true. Forever a fan!

"oh you caught me come to life the moment when your eyes met mine and from the bed the sun came in and till this day it never set" maaaaaAAN my poor heart

Watching him grow from The Format to Fun. to now is truly amazing. His new songs and old songs have so much connection. He's basically a 2015 Freddie Mercury.

Always listen to this when I’m down. Dude please come back!

This song is so appropriate for 2020. Let's brace ourselves, the year isn't over yet, and it will get worse still before it starts to get better.

This album deserves so much more attention than it got when it was first released. It's so good.

The first few lines made me teary

Nate- you just touch my heart and soul. oh my gosh this is me becoming so emmoooooooo. It affects me soooo much.

Something about this song the emotions behind that voice draws me in ♡♡

I love this song it has so much emotion

Nathaniel, I miss you so much! All my friends love your songs because of me 😂 any song I play to someone new they ask me for the album

The first part if the song talks about his mother's terminal illness and first taking her passing lightly "born before the storm" also a reference to "The great big storm" where he actually takes it lightly before its him hard. " at your headstone, I just danced, oblivious to consequence".

This is very special, I rarely hear a song where 10 seconds in I already decide I love it, this was one of those songs and I'm glad you put that mumbling to use haha thanks Nate

Nate, Where have you been? Please, we need more music from you.

I never heard of you before last night when I watched you on a late night with Seth Meyers and I instantly fell in love with your voice, you have such beautiful music and and your voice is a powerhouse. All I really have to say is... Wow!!!

One of the best compososions of unique letters with sincere meaning. It's also my favorite voice.

One of our greatest, the writing is always just unbelievable. Organic, heartfelt, special - NO lazy words or phrases, nothing trite - .Stuff we've never heard before. .

I was a little worried at first about the fact that nate was going to go solo for a bit on the rolling stone, BUT I AM SOOOOOOOOO FFFFFRRRRREEEEEAAAKKKKKIIINNNGGG HHHHAAAPPPPYYY!!!!!! It truly makes me ponder why he would go back. ;D

so great, as always.

When you are lost in the dark forest, there is always chance that you fall into darker ravine.

Man, this song is so motivating lol. I like Fun. because it makes me feel better. But this song, killed my feelings lol. But loved it! Nate is one of the greatest singers of our time!

Nate is perfect

I've been a great fan since last year. I Love your songs Nate

2023 still with nate

Nate's songs and voice heals me, love his songs so much!! his powerful clear voice makes me feel relief

I swear this guy makes the best lyrics. This poem is just beautiful.

I miss Nate :(

I'm sure you are not gonna respond to this, but I was wondering and I'm for sure not the only one but, are you gonna start to make other songs, your songs are just the best I've been obsesse with all your songs the past week and we just need more song and we need to hear from you :) Your songs are the best and I mean it

I was born before the storm My mother placed a dozen thorns The "Sorry"s and the "Take it back"s Lay silent in her folded hands One of the most beautiful lyrics i have ever heard

So beautiful song !!. Thanks for share !!.

I'm a Nate fan from Uganda (Africa), Nate's music is therapy

underrated

What didn't mean a thing distroyed us both..... I felt that😔

I don't even have words for this beautiful song. Overwhelming sadness and enormous beauty.

Obsessed.

All your love may fade away....

Also the other reason why I love your songs so much is the meaning of it and also your official music videos are the best bc of all your energy in it it just goes on and on and it's like if I can feel it so thank you for being you

What a amazing voice.. Ouh My god ❤️

Oh hey, its my 9th grade anthem. Actually, even now it still has quite a bit of relevance in my life, if not more so than it used to

This is the most Queen-like of his songs, it doesn't take a strong imagination to hear Freddie singing these lyrics

Your songs makes me cry for sadness, happiness and longing at the same time. Just beautiful...

Nate i really love all your songs ❤❤❤❤

It's so motivated

Aim and Ignite: "I wanna be the one" Some Nights: "Why am I the one" Because you asked for it! Some Nights: "It gets better" Grand Romantic: "It only gets much worse" Okay, hold up.
