I was introduced to Low Roar through Death Stranding. All the songs touched my heart but this one is something special... Rest in Peace Ryan, you won't be forgotten. ❤
Whenever I would listen to music and hear this song, I would remember my Dad then I would call him or visit him. 2 nights ago, I heard this song play so I started dialing for my Dad. That's when I realized that no one will answer my call because he is no longer of this world. My Dad passed away 6 days ago. I miss you Pa.
I'm so sorry for your loss Abet. I just lost my dad earlier this year as well, and it's beyond any hurt I've ever felt, but time will help you process the grief and carry it a little easier with each passing week. This song reminds me of my dad too, "In my worst, I'll do my best". I hope we can both heal and someday be with our pops again, when our time comes.
I’ve never cried over the death of a musical artist until now. Your music helped me through the worst period of my life. Rest In peace, Ryan. Thank you.
Same. I found out at 3 in the morning. Sat bolt upright in my bed when I read the news and remember just saying "No.". I was only watching his IG lives a few months ago. They felt so personal and beautiful. Like all of Ryan's music. I was waiting for the new album to come. I can't believe this has happened tbh. This is a bad one for me. RIP Ryan.
We still miss you, Ryan. What a way to go, and still too young to go. RIP. Your music will forever be cherished by me and the rest of your fans, and family and friends.
“And in my worst I'll do my best To make it seem *Like* I'm happy” This song spoke to me since I first heard it and in the past year seeing Ryan on instagram live acting a bit more odd than usually, I wondered if he was going though all of the emotions that he sang about… RIP and thank you for heloing me deal with my emotions with your words and sounds
I was going to comment some great philosophical comment(because im some super clever person with time to make youtube comments) but no, you got this, keep on carrying on, don't give up, don't give up on yourself, keep pretending cus everyone else is slightly convinced which leads to you believing it too
I feel the same about his songs. I have some feelings that I can't explain but when I listen to Ryan's songs, it like they speaking to my emotions and sooth my soul. I really do wish he still here with us.
Not you Ryan… I can’t believe it… Rest In Peace you beautiful soul. I’m in tears because your music has changed my life. “I won’t wake without a song to sing…”
I have cried so many times to this song, I loved him so much and didnt realize he had died till now, rest in our hearts man you affected the world for the better and thats all anyone can ask for
Will truly miss you man, your music carried me through some of the deepest bouts of depression I've ever experienced... Rest in peace Ryan, we will miss you forever
This broke me down crying, lost my Dad in 2020, he was very much like the gentleman in this video, even looks very similar, same dog, mustache, skinny etc. I miss you Dad, I'm sure you would have loved this song.
Ryan's creative song writing and musical talents were what made Low Roar so special. Kojima noticed those elements in the band's music when he happened upon them whilst browsing in a record store in Iceland. He immediately was drawn to them and knew that they were a perfect fit for his game, Death Stranding, which won for Best Score/Music in 2019. And of course it did. Low Roar's sound complimented the game world so perfectly and Ryan was a huge reason for that. Rest in peace young man. "Keep on keeping on." You will be missed...
I won't wake A wealthy man someday 'Cause the sun, don't follow me I won't wake Without a song to sing Nothing to some Everything to me On my worst I'll do my best To make it seem Like I'm happy I've grown numb Dry as my tear ducts I've grown dumb And empty But don't give up on me (edit)
I'm only 26 but I feel hollow like a shell. I have everything. In theory I should be happy and content. I have my whole life ahead of me. This song isn't only about old age and solitude. This song speaks to all of us at least at some point in our lives we felt this way, we've been there. Life is a beautiful struggle. Don't give up on yourself. Keep on pushing.
Batchimeg Damdindorj i'm 21 college student, no dept and i have my whole life planned with good payment, i'm still sad af it feels horrible because i have no reason to be so.
I was staggered today by the news that Ryan left us. I will always be thankful for all the songs that have shared with the rest of us. They were in some way comforting even in the darkest times of ones soul.
It's hard to believe... Now you're gone... But your music and legacy is immortal. Thank you for all the beautiful memories with your songs, Ryan. Requiescat in Pace.
And I won't wake A wealthy man someday Cause the sun Don't follow me And I won't wake Without a song to sing Nothing to some Everything to me And in my worst I'll do my best To make it seem Like I'm happy Cause I've grown numb Dry as my tear ducts I've grown dumb And empty But don't give up on me Give up on me Give up on me
Bueno, me acabo de enterar de tu partida, Ryan. Espero que descanses en paz y que hayas sido feliz. Tendré por siempre en mi memoria la primera vez que escuché este tema en particular, el cual es mi favorito. Espero algún día ser feliz para poder "despedirme" de este plano con la conciencia tranquila y si puede ser, escuchando alguno de tus temas.
I was speechless the first time I heard this song. Playing death stranding is kind of like the way life is, walking alone with your cargo, listening to music that makes you keep on track and connecting with people that give you a hand, a rope, a latter, a bridge or even a catapult, fighting against bad weather or bad people, but in the end always by your self. Definitely, the beautiful music of low roar will forever be on my playlist, making the way and the cargo easier to carry. Thanks a lot for everything, Ryan!
We'll I'm here again after not seeing Low Roar in Budapest and with Ryan playing his masterpiece music in other places. Let your sleep be eternally happy, mr. Ryan Karazija ;( ;( ;(
The season of unending sadness and sleepless nights is coming again. Every year I am so afraid that this time the sadness will decide to stay forever and eat away all my happiness. Music like this song helps me to calm down a bit, thank you for creating it.
Doing what this man does is all that matters. Having some coffee, a smoke, appreciating the dog and sunset. Waking up every morning and just being at peace and thinking, watching the sunrise. There's nothing more beautiful than a life like this and I have had the opportunity to live it. I am much grateful for this. It will eternally rest in my heart and will never disappear. I will be waiting for you there eternally , always. such love and such peace. Such beauty and perfection. Such love. Such is happiness.
"having a smoke" ... 🙄 You should also say "Drinking vodka everyday", "sniffing some solvant". Filling your lungs with trash you wouldn't accept to touch, damn now THAT's a way of living and all that matters.
I've listened to low roar for a good 9 years now, still helps me get through stuff. I have good memories of sitting in my room overlooking the cul-de-sac on a rainy saturday morning at 6 in the morning listening to this in high school. RIP Ryan, your music has moved us all more than you could know.
If you are crying to this, you understand subconciously, you are getting that intoxicating idea out and creating beauty of the song on it. Cheers people. Low Roar is amazing musical act who talks with listeners heart
Beautiful. Only memories. In the end, shell we end like that old men? :D That's alright. He is free, lonely but free. And he has friends with four legs :) I'm gonna take your song with me. Thank you, Low Roar.
From what I could gather the man in the music video is ''David Ode, an actor (from “Lonesome Dove” and other films)''. Wishing him nothing but the best. What an amazing way to convey so much without words. Props to the director as well!
It's been a while since you left us, but just revisiting this song, a wave of emotion took me over. I don't think any other persons passing has affeted me as much as this. You will always be in mine and everyones hearts Ryan. Rest in peace
This song makes me cry: I'm losing the love of my life, she doesn't feel anything for me, but she means everything to me. I won't never ever find someone like her... and I can't stand a life entirely without her. I miss the few months spent together, and I'm really close to give up. Don't give up on me...
Listen to me brother. I lost the love of my life at the age of 18. I thought about her every day for 3 years straight after we split up. I cryed like a baby. It made me the man I am today. I'm hard, but in a good way. This is life. Everyone goes through this. You must stay strong. Do not give up! Life goes on regardless. James.
Dear Ryan. I hope you find happiness wherever you may be right now. Know that we were here to witness your beautiful craft and your songs that echoes through, Healing us all. ❤️ Your music will live on for eons, dear friend. Rest in peace.
This song played on DS while I was playing it and it hit me. I came here later to listen to it again and came to this video and I cant tell you how much this hit me. In so many ways. The song, melody and video just is exactly a reflection and explanation of what I'm feeling right now. I'm leaving Tuesday for Texas, I'm alone and scared and dont know if things are gonna work out. I could end up homeless. I'm having to leave my best friend who is my pet behind and my heart breaks for him. Leaving fanily and friends behind. Just so depressed and scared. Thanks for this song and video Low Roar.
When the trailer for "death stranding 2" came out, I immediately thought of low roar directly and sadly. I sincerely wish there would be his music in the game as a tribute to Ryan
This Music gets with the Fact I always wished to have a Living Grandpa. They Both died before I was Born. So Yes, the Touch with the Elders still is something you want to Live Better. We all get Old. We all Fade. We can't Avoid the Facts. It's an Inspiring Musical Video. It doesn't Encourage having Depression, it justs Enforces that we don't have Good Days all Days. People just want to Flee from Tears and Sadness. But Truth is, We are Humans with Feeling Capacity. We Live with our Story, with our Tears. We all have Good and Bad Moments. Some Days you just want to hide the Clock, that's it.
I won't wake A wealthy man someday 'Cause the sun don't follow me I won't wake Without a song to sing Nothing to some Everything to me In my worst I'll do my best To make it seem Like I am happy 'Cause I've grown numb Dry as my tear ducts Have grown dumb And empty But don't give up on me Give up on me Give up on me
I was a fan since early 2014. I listened to this as my wake up alarm my first and only semester of college. It was bittersweet knowing the reality, the inevitable, yet having to choose to accept it voluntarily.. I didn’t want to be in denial, so I took the authentic, affordable, off the beaten path…. rip low roar, thank you for inspiring me
