sounds beautiful Slug
Exactly! I try to describe how I feel about Slug and his music and I feel wrong using "Idol," and "Hero", because he's like a good friend, the kind you can not talk to in 8 years and still know they're going to understand all your faults, and know your problems. This dude saved my life, I just wanna shake his hand, fuck an autograph.
Slug is very talented
No matter how many times I watch this, it never fails to run a chill up my spine and bring a tear to my eye.
One of the best storytellers in all of music.
Its amazing how he just tells a story and allows you to be taken away, Notice he's the only hip-hop artist who can actually and properly carry a note while singing. That right there shows how talented he is.

Whoever came up with the idea of playing the song like this is a genius. Much better than the record. That's also beacuse Slugs performances are the best. He gives every track something special when he performs live. In my opinion the live shows are better than the records. That's how good he is.

+Jsalcedo23 for all of those that claim hip hop is ignorant and unintelligent, they are closed-minded and ignorant themselves. I personally think the problem is the stigma associated with the word. We need a new one, for stuff like this, because when I say "rap" or "hip hop" i always have to explain the difference from what most people think, and what this kind of music is.

Sean doesn't just transmit the emotions of an experience like so much great music does, he immerses you in it to the point it feels like you're actually there. It's amazing storytelling.
Love you all ❤️
this life is hard...
"Live to work to live to work to live." I've literally been pondering this line for like ten minutes. I feel like I do this with all of their songs haha...
Still one of the best acoustic covers ever
Not gunna lie atmosphere helped save my life I was so close to the edge loosing the woman I love barely seeing my son I was at my edge but atmosphere helped I just wanna say thank you for giving me that shoulder that nudge to help get back up

Atmosphere I will always love your style, its like no other...
Most underrated artist of my lifetime . Thanks for the stories Sean. R.i.p. eydea and alias
This song still makes me tear up after listening to it over a decade because both my parents were the girl in the first verse while I was the kid in the second. But listening to hip hop and rock kept me sane. N kept it pushing. Love y'all.shout outs from Dallas. Treat everyone with respect because you don't know what people might be going through.
This was an amazing era of Slugs career, as someone who jumped on board the Atmosphere train in 2002 it felt like a twist in style that hit the spot at the time.
Slug, you're music has shaped me more than you'd ever know. Thank you so much for existing. I was introduced to you about sophomore year of high school by my girlfriends best friend, and I'm so grateful of her for it that I still talk to her regularly :)
2021 anyone? Just watched the new one from RA and slug. Man, another heavily underrated super talented one.
Reinspired in 2023. Love ya Atmosphere . Love from Canada - Too-Phat
I was bartendingbat a hotel in Denver slug was the coolest most down to earth person. Tips 10$ a drink and gives free tickets. Super great and talented guy
Showed my dad lots of atmosphere last night, this and little man are the ones that reeally moved him. Thanks for all the great songs slug
[Verse 1] Caught the bus at 5:06 That's in the AM for all you little trust fund kids And it's a forty-five minute trip If she ain't in by six, she'll catch another pink slip And that's three and that means fired The coffee thermos in the purse to help her keep wired The day-care where she drops the baby off Thank god it's on the same block as the bus stop By 5:30, she's halfway there And her back already hurts from the bus' plastic chair Live to work to live to work to live Gotta feed the kid and give it all she's got to give Plus she tryna catch a little overtime If she stays till four she could be home by five Shuts her eyes for the rest of the route And keeps her headphones loud to drown everything out But the same old song... [Hook] "Whoa... whoa, not another day!" Not another day of the same old song "Whoa... whoa, not another day!" Not another day of the same old song [Verse 2] Seemed like nobody even knew his name, huh If he disappeared would they even see the blank spot? The only kids who might notice are the ones who Push him up and down the hallways and in the lunchrooms Sometimes he looks at his bruises and wants to come to school with A gun like them kids on the news did But nah man they don't deserve to die He's the type that couldn't even murder a fly I guess you get used to the life Maybe that's why he refuses to cry Takes it on the chin, takes it in stride What doesn't break you just makes you stronger right? So he sits by himself on the school bus Hoping that today he wouldn't have to put his dupes up But just like any other, here they come To fuck with his comfort, can't wait for summer It's the same old song... [Hook] [Verse 3] C'mon, woke up at the taste of dawn When the city's bloodline starts to push it along The generators on those public buses Is enough to bust you out of any dream that you stuck in I guess that's the chance you taking When you camp out in front of that transfer station And this town got no answers to chase That's why he always sleeps near the transportation Panhandle it, transient freedom Transplant, he ain't from this region And when the wind starts to whisper its lips He knows enough to pack it up and dip out before the winter hits Childhood dreams washed down the gutter Both parents gone, no sisters, no brothers Weak memories, strong paranoia While the same song repeats in his head Over and over and over and over it goes...

This the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard
Such a talented artist keep up the good shit slug.
Probably one of the best songs...
Thank you slug
South Mpls here, thanks for keeping it real
Been awhile since I heard this. Timeless.
Remember the day my cousin showed me Sunshine, Yesterday and The best day ever then this. One of the truest and real MC's and can relate. Wish there were interviews of him, i respect everything he does 🙏🙏
I got chills when the chorus hit. Slug is the best.
It’s 2023 and this song still hits home. The older I get, the more numb I feel towards anything. But when I hear this song I feel things I haven’t felt in a long time. Mind me, I’m a little drunk. But this song brought a tear or two to my eyes. Thank you, brother.
first unplugged, got slugged. boy. you safed more than my life.
He’s a king. One of hip hop’s very finest
Slug is like the best storyteller with a mic. Ever.
Still one of my favorite Atmosphere songs and live makes it just that much better.
Men I wish I could talk to slug and tell him how much respect I got for him and for everything he does! A true artist who makes true hip-hop! Got mad love for Atmosphere!
almost 40 years old and he can still spit better than anyone else :D he represents the midwest better than almost anyone else
this version is so much better :D

My thoughts
HOW AM I JUST LISTENING TO THIS AWESOME VERSION NOW 0_o
The fact I can stream this to my TV completes me
best rapper to ever lived in my opinion, I'm french and i've been hearing rap for ever, slu got s the deepest flow and the most powerful rhymes. Much love!!!
I found this song the other day, and I have to say the lyrics hit me like a slap in the face. I can't personally relate to any of the struggles he refers to, but I think everyone can relate to the theme he emphasizes on. I don't know man, Slug keeps it real, and I respect that
My daughter loved sooo much. 1985 2012
Rap at its upmost artistic form. Through one of raps greatest underground catalyst, Slug.
Complexity through Simplicity...the hardest thing to achieve and the highest wire to walk
i think Sean should do more of his songs like this. with just the guitar and him. i think its just perfect
Another Day. Thanks for the song.
this is got to be his best song and this performance is the best of it
I've always loved this song, but Slug's facial expressions really make it for me in this video.
Always in love with atmosphere
An acoustic album from Slug.. would be legendary!
More touching to me than the way you can watch in his eyes how he's watching and living the words as they come out.. and he feels it.. More than the words or the look or the sound.. Is in the very end.. This is, for all intents and purposes, a pretty famous guy.. with a mind that makes most of the world seem barbaric.. and the humility of that simple "Thank you"... Says everything about the man on the stage. Just grateful they listened. Just happy to not have to live it alone, and express. Damn
Magnificent!
if a song could change a person... mad love for slug
Wow. Chills.
Wow! I absolutely love this version!!! I'm speechless!!!
absolutely love this
So raw and smooth, everything about this performance is just top notch... Very much respect
Ive loved this song for years
Currently my favorite song.
One of the greatest live pieces I have ever heard. Period.
So beautiful.
Slug is such a diverse and talented musician. He can sing (some), spit hot fire, and he's an amazing writer. He also has great stage presence. I love this vid.
some of the best song writing ever period
Thank you. It is people like you that give me hope in life.
Slug is my favorite artist. and this is my favorite song from him,
This show was the first concert that I ever attended. I am forever grateful that I did because it introduced me to a whole different genre of hip hop that has changed my life so positively. I have even started writing my own stuff. Thank you Ryhmesayers.
this song came up in my playlist, and i had to stop what i was doing to listen. been an atmosphere fan, but this i havent heard, most of these i havent heard, but this stands out.
Wow. Thank you my friends
pure genius. I'm twelve and he makes me feel like I'm on that bus and I'm from a small town.
