Probably the best song he has ever written and performed

Nathaniel Ratliff for Music President!! 👇

"You have to bury your friends and you find it gets worse". My god that's powerful

"You're standing out on a ledge, with no way to get down, you start praying for wings to grow...oh baby just let go" This little verse might be my favorite lyrics in any song ever.

Watched them in Cologne a few weeks ago. He performed this song, I grabbed my wife and held her with tears in my eyes. It's a wonderfully powerful song.

I have never had a song affect me the way this one still does even after a year of listening

I feel the same. Sometimes it makes dance, sometimes it makes me cry. It always evokes a strong emotional response. This song has a spell on me that's so powerful, like some sort of black magic.

Agreed 10x over. A lump in my throat right now, yet swaying to the music. It's magical the way it works on you

This song brought me through some tough times. I had just moved far from home and had to take a late-night bus ride across the country. This song started playing when I looked out the window in the dark and had my playlist on shuffle. Its melody and vibes gave me the chills, and I can't forget that moment. It's been my go-to on every trip back home, and it takes me back every time I listen. I don’t even know why.

Had a hell of a hard day. These old bones are hurting. But "It's still alright" I am here! Nothing like Nathaniel and the Night Sweats to make you feel better 🎶🎸

You don't listen to a song like this - you live it.

Wow what a comment! “You live it”… word Bro’

I was lucky enough to be at the last live show he did before the tour shut down due to COVID. It was such a beautiful show.

I just discovered this . WOW , even an old man likes this. I could listen to him all day

His work is exceptional, hard hitting lyrics you can tell this guy has been mastering his craft for 20 years. Deserves everything coming his way a true artist.

Just finished the gnarliest cancer treatment. This song 🙏🏽❤

Thanks for sharing, great song at the world's best venue!

This song saved my life♥️

Makes me cry every time I hear this song. 😂 Lost my sister in a stupid senseless accident on Nov 6. This song resonates. Love you Debby miss you so much

Anyone one who says there are no great singer-songwriters left needs to listen to this song.

@@adamphillips8015 Exactly. Still plenty out there, we just never hear about them anymore because it’s not what the labels and corporate radio are pushing nowadays unfortunately. (which is zero variety and basically the same type of stuff)

This song just knocks me out... i can't stop listening to it, don't want to stop listening to it.

i have goosebumps and he hasn’t started to sing yet

This song got me through all the isolation and loneliness of Covid lockdown and being on my own head too much. Thanks Sirus Spectrum for playing Nathaniel and sharing his mastery with the world

He's been good for a long time .nice to see him get some respect. The band a good time fun group. This guy can write and sing plus play guitar. Well done!

Terrific songwriter and a beautiful toon.

I got to see them exactly 2 years after this in Harrisburg, PA. I saw them again in Pittsburgh last month.

How people can dislike this is beyond me. This is incredibly beautiful.

Freaking beautiful...

Saw this guy play this , never heard of him before. He opened for city & colour in winter 2024, this song was far and away the highlight of the entire night

Am laying on the sofa with a blanket .it's chilly, and this song is playing while am staring at the ceiling... I feel it.❤

Very few songs out there that tug on the heart strings. This is certainly one of them!

best live version of this song i have ever heard

🥰This song, this man, this band! Thanks be...❤👍

I just put this song on a continuous loop. It speaks to me so. Thank you, gents. ❣️

Geez. My heart. Recall the video of you singing this in the woods...how do you get through these songs without crumbling? I can't.

Stunning as always!!!!!

Like always you sound amazing live! I didn't get tickets in my home town so I am heading to Spokane..... would travel ANYWHERE to hear your voice, the poignant and poetic lyrics, your kindness exudes from your soul.... legendary and I can't get enough 🖤🤘🔥

this song is so real, I guess that's the word, hits home love it

I don’t go to many shows anymore but he comes anywhere near me I’m gonna buy a ticket

Listened to this song a mllion times but the tears keep coming. Thanks for this one.

Red rock is such a sweet venue.. I've always wanted to go to a concert there

This song made my pillow wet.. God bless you Sir and your Band. 🙏

Beautiful . Thankyou.

Just amazing!!! Sounds so amazing live!

Absolutely beautiful. Thank u everyone 🙏💕

Love this version! Red Rocks is a beautiful setting too

A graciosidade das suas músicas é indescritível! A sutileza de cada nota é como o pincelar em uma tela 🎨. E a sua voz é como as cores que dão vida a pintura. Obrigada por nos agraciar com mais essa obra prima! 🧡 (sorry for my comment in portuguese, but i don't speak english)

Brilliantly description!

I've seen a lot of shows at Red Rocks. I would have loved to see this one

They are coming to the Anthem in DC on October 17 - I can not wait. We had a hard time filling the ticket's 'cause it's a school night' - are you kidding me - play hooky! But this song is indescribable!

It's an utter injustice that no one is in those seats!!!

I've Lost Just About Everything That Was Good and Guided my Path Now I'm Lost Between What it Was and What it Will be But it's Still Alright...

Wow this song hits my heart strings will be buying this CD today!

Love 💕

Chills

I stumbled on your song S.O.B and loved it. I've been checking out all your music and I love it. How I just now am finding you is beyond me but then again I'm a home body with pets and a widow but your fantastic

Good Stuff! 👍🏽

See you soon at Red Rocks!

Crowd empty, but music lives on, it's still aight...

man this is good, hope to see you in Sweden some day!

👏🎶💕

Second part harmony is killer 🤙

Grenzgenial der Typ!!

Coming to a play a church in my neighbourhood tomorrow!! Wow.

I wanna go to Red rocks

You, and this song, remind me so much of my oldest brother, who died of a drug overdose. Thank you for managing to add beauty to the brutal.

Come to the edge. It is too high. Come to the edge. We might fall. COME TO THE EDGE. And the came to the edge And he pushed. And we flew.

I wrote this comment because I listen to this multiple times daily and I wanted a different comment 🤣

I like the SOB

Why are the seats completely empty on a Sunday night in September with good weather!? Looks like Red Rocks was shut down for COVID all the way into late Sep. 2020.

Shit. This is so very very very good.

🎶 ...Standing out on the ledge With no way to get down You start praying for wings to grow Oh, baby, just let go...🎶 🎶...Hey, tonight if you think about it Remembering all the times that you pointed out Say, the glass is clear but all this fear starts a-leaving a mark Your idle hands are all that stands From your time in the dark But it's still alright🎶💔 I just can't wrap my brain around how these lyrics and my soul are not the exact same thing...

But it's still alright

Can someone please identify the guitar he is playing? Is it some nylon string parlor guitar?

Looks like a Waterloo. They're an offshoot of Collings guitars.

This song and Niel Young performing Hey, Hey, My, My [acoustic/ live] are the soundtrack to my husband's whole life.

Needs a duet with Brittany Howard yesterday.

I don’t understand, this is a live show at Red Rocks yet every shot of the audience is empty.

Love Nate, but I can barely make out many of these lyrics - need better enunciation.

Love💕
