Nolan Taylor - "Wicked Ways" (Truthful Sessions) 

LYRICS: The sky is blue & so am I, I’ve been fighting these demons inside my mind. Oh I wish you didn’t feel the same way. I know you’re blue these days too, I wish I could change that for you. You know I love you more than anything. I wish I could change my evil ways, I’d do anything to make it better for you babe. Like change those sky’s back to clear as day, your night time & evening cloudy with rain, oh I’d do anything to put a smile on your face. Like give you health if you’re feeling off, lend you my eyes to help ya see in the dark. I’d give you marigolds every single day. I can try to change my wicked ways, I just want you to wake up with a smile on your face. Oh me-oh me-oh-my you’re the apple honey of my weary eye I wanna be that cardinal in your dogwood tree. Perfect clouds, in the grass as we lie, your favorite birds all go flying by, everything inside your pretty precious dreams. I could try to change my evil ways, I’d do anything to make it better for you babe. Like would change those sky’s back to clear as day, your nighttime & evening just breezy with rain. I’d do anything just to put a smile back on that face take my health if you’re feeling off, lend you my eyes to help ya see in the dark, I’ll give you marigolds every single day. I can try & change my evil ways.

People don't realize mainstream music is trash. Hail to all small time artists doing the thing ❤

You have got to love an artist that can make you sit in silence and reflect. The music this man makes is so powerful.

Came here after hearing 68, the depth of soul you reveal in your lyrics is only surpassed by the depth and ferocity of your voice, it raises to a spiritual level, true soul music.

If Nolan doesn't blow up, then I'll know the music industry is truly dead! So much heart in this man's music!!

I haven't cried in years. Combat in Afghanistan made my emotions become a distant relative with no communication with my soul. 68 changed that and now I'm here and still in tears.

Hopefully all the attention Anthony is getting will translate into success for Nolan. Such a talent.

You will never see this comment but that’s okay. I love you so much and wish I could have been better and live free of these wicked ways. I truly would do anything for you. I love you Sara.

This song is better than 99.9 songs on the radio. I would rather listen to this all day 💯🍻

this is where r and b meets country - so special

The brief moments of silence in this song are so powerful

I just buried my father two weeks ago from cancer,but he served in the navy in the Persian Gulf War and I can never forget him any time I hear this song

Dawg.. this song made me cry. Legit.

After having a motorcycle accident and messing up my spine, i started drinking to deal with the pain. I eventually got into pain management and started getting actual medical treatments for the ruptured disks after 2 years. During that time i had become a 5th of whiskey a day alcoholic. My wife stood by me, stuck it out, over looked the drinking, but id lose my temper at times when i was drunk and we would fight. She went to her moms house and i realized id do anything for her. I quit drinking that day, suffered terrible withdrawls, but havent touched a drop of alcohol in almost a year and any time i think of drinking, i think of how much my wife means to me and remember whats important in my life and i thank god for her every single day.

Guaranteed this man’s music career will be full of hits! The sound, emotion, depth, and effort he puts in shows with every note!

I sing this to my daughter everyday as i come out the other side of addition.. recovery is possible x

I feel like the best music is always made with a dude and his guitar

We are loving all of you guys across the border, here in PA

This is what I call hillside soul… how is this guy not on top of the charts!!!

Love can be a crazy thing. This song is beautiful.

Im a recovering drug addict of a 19yr addiction. I am from West Virginia. I had a rough life growing up as well. I can really relate. Thank you so much for your music. You are great man. Keep going and never stop bro!

This man could write a song about a gd rock and make me feel some type of way.

"I know you're blue these days too, I wish I could change that for you. You know I love you more than anything" 🖤

Yes dear brother

We’re all brothers and sisters if we’re with Jesus and try to fix our wicked ways with our spouses but most importantly with yourself I’ve had to learn this over the years and this song is a great reminder to always strive to be great

Crossroads mood... Deep in the blue... Just perfect.

My wife and I have been together for 15 years now... This is our new S🎉ong.. bro thank you for your contribution to the craft in which we call entertainment 10/10 out of 10 my man.... Please continue for all of us... And if you misconstrue my communication is there anything less than sir a.... Thank you!!!!

Some friends and I just seen him in concert in Kansas City. He puts on a hell of a show. We even got to meet him before the concert. He's a a real down to earth guy with an awesome voice. Can't wait to see him again.

Best song I've ever heard that didn't even have 1M views. A great example of all the great music out there that gets overlooked bc the mainstream music industry has such a tight grip on what they want to push out.

came here for 68 stayed for WIcked Ways. I seen Zack Bryan turn into a star here the first time I listened to him on RU-vid. Nolan you will indeed be a star one day. This song is good and I am getting chills typing this comment. Take care and keeping the good music coming!

After listening to “68” I’m hooked on every song I’ve heard from this cat so far! It is simply, just good, soulful music👏🏻🖤

This man’s music is so unbelievably personal for me. It seems like I tear up with either happiness or sadness with each song I hear. You sir, have a fan for life. I’ve not felt so emotional listening to music in a long time, this is true art, beauty, and pain all wrapped up in one. Thank you.

Gorgeous! I’m an old woman, who has been through so much! I clicked on this video, after losing my mind, over a comment, made from someone who doesn’t live in my Country. His words were hateful, & offensive to every American. I knew, once I shared my comment, telling him he should keep his mouth shut, if he had nothing NICE to say about my Country! ….My blood pressure has spiked ( I’ve had 2 massive heart attacks, in my 20’s, & 4 strokes, in the last 10 years! My B.P. before watching this video, was 224/118 ! I took Nitroglycerin & hoped it would be enough. Then I saw this VIDEO! GUYS, thank you so much!! I play piano, too, since age 5- if not for Almighty God, & MUSIC, I have died long ago! Concentrating on the words spoken, worked!! Praise God for the gifts you both possess! I’ve watched your cooking videos, too. I’m just amazed by your positive attitude, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS! Your videos are filled with Joy, & Kindness! As soon as I complete this comment, I’ll be a new subscriber to your platform of love! God has blessed you both, & those who are around you are BLESSED AS WELL! Keep up this up, gentlemen! My blood pressure now, is 140/92, which is FABulous, after being so high just prior to pressing play! I’m T.D-Rogers, but my family calls me “tee-kee”, so that’s who I am to both of you!

We need to protect this man. Hold on a little longer bro. You are blowing up. We feel you. We all live these highs and lows. Everyday!

Man.. im going through one of the hardest breakups I have ever experienced as I loved this human more than the world itself.. this song is the world to me, thank you.. repeat all day

I met him in Cleveland when he opened for cwg he's a hell of a guy very humble and sincere hope to hear more of him in the future

I landed on this page so randomly, but the very SECOND that the music started playing I RECOGNIZED GREATNESS!!

I can't thank you enough for making music that can reach through to the souls of so many... or maybe I'm just speaking for myself. Sincerely wish you all the best Mr. Nolan Taylor

This man's music soothes my soul.

Keep coming back to RU-vid just to listen to this tune

after hearing 68 you put into words a lot of emotions too many people feel due to addiction. BEYOND TALENTED.

This song literally made me cry. Beautiful and meaningful lyrics, really an amazing song.

man this hits me right in the heart...my lady left me...cuz i couldnt fight my demons off or help with hers..this is sucj a good song got me bawling like baby and i needed it..thank you dude

Tears in my eyes brotherman

Can't tell how blessed I am to call this man a brother and a friend he puts his heart into everything he does it shows in his music the way he carries himself in life. These songs he sings are so much more than words they are a way to live and think about life.

This man seems so vulnerable it feels like you could just meet him and become friends! Love music that makes you feel real life emotions. Learning to deal with them and music is such a therapy.

These men are a gift

I mean wow.. sometimes a song comes along and hits the rightest of right spots

Man Ole man is this dude a true talent with words and music spoke a felt like the old days when music gave u chills smiles and tears all at the same time keep it up please dude u are awesome !!!!!!!!

The depth of soul I can hear in this man’s voice makes the demons in my head just a little quieter. I’d love to play some music with him….

@Nolan Taylor this song is single handedly helping me out of a depression.. I absolutely adore you for putting this out 🖤🙌🏻👏🏻

His music really speaks to me.

the people are ready!!! KEEP GOING

68 lead me here. Fuck I’m stuck on this music. Soulful and you can feel the song

man, Music that makes you feel. This is what the world needs.

TELL EVERYONE ABOUT NOLAN!!! Never has someone hit my feeling like this not since daphne loves derby, city and colour, dashboard confessional. The Midwest punk blue grass feels crazy

This song you don't even know. My daughter suffers from clinical depression. She's a trooper.. this song. ❤❤❤

What a long 3 days it will be! Can’t wait!

Any ballad about hard times is worth singing. We all have a place for a song.

Can’t get enough of this song! Repeat Repeat Repeat

Thanks for making me smile

Here from “68”, and I’m LOVING THIS. Can relate to both. You’re doing big things. Also, I would love to learn to play this on guitar😂

My daughter just recently took me to see you and it was so amazing 👏 you brought tears to my eyes and hers as well ...Thank you and we met your wife , GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS, WHAT TALENT YOUR BAND HAS AS WELL.. KEEP ON KEEPING ON.😂😢❤

Found this off TikTok and now I’m obsessed 😍 new favorite

OH MY❤❤ WE HAVE US ANOTHER STAR❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊

🥹 Instantly made me think of him. New favourite singer.

Nolan Taylor. I don’t have time to deal with all the emotions you keep hitting me with. Can’t wait till you release an album

I've been a Musician for north of 40 years and GODDAMN! I wish I could sing like Nolan Taylor! Just found him today and he SAVED me instantly -- The place where music comes from inside of me was dying but now "my favorite bird is flying by" again. His poetry is rivetting! -- Ray LaMontagne is gonna wanna work with Nolan when he hears him. They would be an AMAZING Duo.

This guy is a star. We want more please don't ever stop making music. All respect my friend.

beautiful voice and writing.. It's hard to imagine even 3 people disliked this song

68 brought me here, your heart and soul and pure emotion in your music made me keep looking. Catchy tunes are cool but being able to make someone feel something with your music is priceless. Don't change who you are for anyone and success will come! Keep rockin brotha 🤘

Not sure if his musics gonna save my life or be the sound track to my demise but i love his music

I swear you wrote this for me and my lady. It's exactly how I feel for her. I love this woman more than anything.

It's always a pleasure to find a new gift of music from. Such gifted people who want to share their own thoughts with their music ...incredible job

Westover, WV. "68" is real to us.

Dudes voice is SMOOTH AND SOOTHING..!!👍

Once her smile for you goes it never comes back. Realizing it’s gone is the worst part. Then the eyes go, to no longer be looked in the face by the one you love is slow death. Then it’s over

Love this guy. Never disappoints. At least not in the last few decades..😅

WOW< I am so glad to fall into these songs "Truthful Sessions"

SO proud of you Nolan!! Your voice is amazing!!

This song makes me smile, cry and feel hope all in one go. Thank you.

He does such a wonderful job conveying the emotion of the lyrics in his vocals...just gives me goosebumps not only relating to the song, but feeling the pain, sorrow and melancholy sadness echoing through his cords. Fucking great song kid. Great voice. You are going to go so far man.

I could listen to this all day and night❤❤❤❤

Here now cuz his life is absolutely about to change!

This Man is Amazing artist...

Whoever is picking artists for this channel has a hell of an ear for talent. I have a playlist of Truthful Sessions because I love everyone I've heard. I wish I could hear this man live. I'm sharing this channel with everyone I can. ❤

Why am i now hearing this song ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Everytime I hear this it's just a flood of memories... can't help but smile and get back to work.. a drunken night a broken heart and tree won't stop me from fixing that truck

Your voice speaks to the soul brother. Keep doing what your doing.
