I can't even listen to his recorded work... It's a completely different genre of music compared to his Live masterpieces. He needs to just record his sessions
i can tell youve worked so incredibly hard to get to this point. Its not necessarily a "gift" its something thats worked on everyday and you can tell. Hard work.
Sue, this is years and years of daily practice. The gift is the life he has lived and the reflection he has allowed in his mind to evoke emotion like this. The two are interconnected and one cannot sustain without the other. This is how I see true musicianship, and Matt is a prime example :)
Sue Bushell nikojaj is right, it's an insult to the amount of work that's gone into achieving that tone..listen to his idol performances...he obviously could sing no doubt, but he sounds like a completely different person today, so refined and so so much better...singing is work like every other talent
Can’t agree more..when you say it’s just a gift. You’re pretty much saying this man didn’t work for his talent. He was gifted it. You fail to acknowledge his hard work, ambition, frustration, perseverance the list goes on. 100% hard work.
Matt Corby makes the kind of music that starts as great study background tunes but most definitely becomes the main focus of the time because of his raw talent. It is like you need to SEE how that sound is actually possible. Like if you relate.
If your child doesn't sleep a solid 10 hours after listening to you sing, I don't know what will make him/her! I play guitar and sing a bit, and I know we're all unique, but I'd kill to have your voice!
"try a little harder, you can´t let it destroy you. don´t regret the things that made you strong" This helped me so much more than I can express in words, it made me look at certain things in my life diferently. thank you for always making real, magical, soul touching music, Matt. sending tons of love
when listening to matt, my brain always needs a minute to adjust from the daily radio crap that im used to before the beauty of his music hits me again.
This song will always bring me back the most beautiful of memories, my wife and I had this particular version playing as she walked down the aisle, the best day of my life. Been lucky enough to bump into Matt twice in my life now, once at a show he did at Somerset House with Lianna la Havas, and the other when he was standing outside his hotel before a show at Bushstock - he will always be my favourite artist and we're so blessed to have him in our lives x
I'm a dude and I straight up started crying on the 1:20 mark. I can't begin to explain how much this song affects me. When you fall... I fall... Jesus christ I feel like I found something in me that never has been surfaced before. Matt corby you beautfiul beautiful man. Your music affects my life more than I would ever have known anyone was capable of. You my good sir can transcribe music to pure EMOTION and LOVE.
Has anyone else noticed that they took the front piece of the piano so they could capture the sound of the keys better? Beautiful stuff. Truly magical...
Went and saw him a couple of nights ago at Kings Park in Perth... Seriously.. This guys vocals are on Adele's level, I shit you not.. This boy can hit EVERY note and it's perfect. So incredible.
This hit too close to home, these past few months have been such a struggle with grief and separation, I've gone to Rainbow Valley countless times to find my soul again. Thank you for sharing your work with the world and for being a genuine artist, it is a game changer.
Very nice...real music....no girls and boys dancing and no engineer tricks like auto tune and cheap little tricks...and booming bass that shakes your car speakers to disassemble the nuts and bolts of your car!!!!...my congrats as a songwriter from Nashville.....Aho!!!
He plays, sings and writes like an old soul...he's an angel and a devil just telling you how it is deep, deep down. Rips my heart out like Aretha did before she left this world for higher places. Even your dog sits there and listens like God is talking to him...almost makes me believe in God again. Thanks, Matt.
We could try To put out a light that's been on so long I never missed you until I know I won't be coming home But I'm always coming home Cause when you fall I fall When you break I break You got me all fired up I got my hands tied up I wanna know what gets you all fired up Got me all fired up We could drive So far out of the smoke that we've been breathing for so long I never miss you until I know you won't be coming home So tell me that you're coming home You got me all fired up I got my hands tied up I wanna know what gets you all fired up Try a little harder You can't let it destroy you Don't regret the things that made you strong You got me all fired up And I got my hands tied up I wanna know what gets you all fired up I wanna know what gets you all fired up Cause when you fall I fall When you break I break When you crawl I crawl When you hurt I hurt
Truly amazing. One word of advice... Please don't let mainstream producers take over you and your order organic style. They have crushed many amazing artists before and I won't let that happen to you. Keep doing exactly what you're doing and your audience will grow and grow. I hope more people will discover you. The world needs it. Bless
Matt you are the voice of collective consciousness. My soul feels at peace and so soothed and elated when I listen to you sing. Your music is powerful and ever so beautiful. A true delight to my soul and the souls of so many others.
Thank you Matt, for giving me the gateway to falling for the woman of my dreams all over again. You get caught up in the trials and tribulations of life, and inadvertently neglect the one/s you love the most. Don't ever let that special person slip from your fingers, like I have done. You are in this world together, through thick and thin, never forget that, and never let them forget that. Never stop fighting for your love.
I very recently got out of a toxic relationship where I had tried and tried for over a year to keep it making it better. She dragged me down and tried her hardest to push me away because of her insecurities. When she was good and on an up, there is no doubt in my mind that she is the best person for me. But after a year and a half of mood swings, heartbreak and struggling sanity born from a traumatizing past, I couldn't take it anymore. I had to let go of someone I loved so dearly, someone I would do anything for, someone who had become unequivocally my best friend in the world and someone I truly thought I could save. Matt Corby started to drop more and more of these amazing tracks during the worst bit of that relationship. I first heard All Fired Up a week before I broke everything off and it helped me know exactly what to do. This song described my feelings for her so perfectly and the pain that came along with her. Its been a month since the day I ended it, but I revisit this song almost daily, to remind myself of what I felt. It gets easier to move forward each and every time I listen. Thank you, Matt.
I've been waiting for him to post something like this since Wrong Man!! Please come back to the States so I can see/hear you live!!!! I missed you last time you were here. 💙💙
