I could cry. This song was the only song I listened to. 3 years ago, alone, homeless, depressed, broken family and pregnant with a baby I didn’t know how I was going to take care of. I’m now in my own home and happily taking care of my baby girl. Thank you Tash. You are an angel.
I’m 62 thought I knew a lot. Just found Tash Sultana. I realize how much is still out there to be discovered. Oh to be born again… And again. Thank you Tash. Thank you good people.
Isn’t it amazing this song spoke to so many addicts, me being one. An addict of 15 years now. What a wonderful gift her music is to those facing an almost impossible mission. But we keep going and we never give up. My heart goes out to all of us struggling
Struggling with addiction still like almost 20 years or someshit. I think I'll beat it still!Dope music tho.. I make music but I'm not nearly as talented as her DAMN
This song made me think of an affirmation. I am not an addict Im an adoptive child of God. I am free from notions that place a negative outlook and free to serve my neglected emotions that make me feel unhappy. I adapt. I feel what negative energies affect me and love them from their lessons. I no longer hold notions of negativity as negative, but rather accept them and love them for what they taught and made meaningful to me. I grow from these deep roots and shake off the withered leaves of despair and grow anew set of wings to soar and fly into my highest. I obtain. I receive openly the gifts from my experiences that set me through first tribulations to mold me into a stronger and wiser being. I appreciate and love every inch of my withered and fallen leaves, but allow them to create a layer of protection for my new and profoundly deeper roots to myself. Love conquers all. Amen.
I was woofing in the jungles of Maui when someone pulled me to the side and said I needed to hear this. We sat under a low tree as this womans voice stepped into my heart as tho she lived there. I was facing addiction, sorrow, little money and few people I could trust and for a while I couldnt even enjoy the beauty around me, I felt nothing, but when I listened to this I was deeply moved. I continued to listen and sat with the ocean and tash over many days. I cried before the moon and the sun and I'm thankful I have made it through.
As another who knows addiction too well I hope you are in a good place brother. Yes music is such potent magic that it can cut through even the apathy that severe heroin addiction causes. She is a consummate wizard
Tash, I just want to thank You. I have Asperger's Syndrome and am suffering for anxiety. When I go through my panick attacks I listen to your music, especially this song, it helps me to calm down and get my breath back to normal very quickly...Thank You, beautiful person. Your music is soothing my Soul
I have Asperger's too. I play Tash's music every day. They help my anxiety as well. Tash's concerts are the only ones worth going to for me, despite all of the people.
This song makes me feel like nothing else exists. Just the moment and the music. I feel so lucky to have found your music Tash. Thank you for all that you do. Thank you, for being you!!!!
This my friend is why I say that music is drug of choice! You can’t buy those goosebumps. Nothing makes my soul rise like good music like hers. If you like her check out LP. Keep on dancing 😊
I'm a mid 50's guy in The UK. And I need to say how wonderful and refreshing it is, in this age to come across what is without doubt an absolute huge talent! I don't think for one minute Tash desire success or fame, it's all about the music! So I just wish she get's where she wants to go! She certainly has the talent! And in my humble opinion deserves huge recognition!
Your music reminds me I need to slow down and live in the moment sometimes. I’m so worried about where I’m going next and focusing on my to do list. Your music makes me feel lighter and it’s so beautiful I can’t help but force myself to stop what I’m doing and just enjoy it. Thank you for being you Tash
In december 2018 my mom passed away from a pulmonary embolism. this was her favorite song. she used to put it on in the car every day. we would listen to it all the time along with all of your other music. she really put me on. she was planning on going to one of your concerts. she told me about it 2 days before she died. she asked me to go with her because nobody else wanted to and i gladly accepted because i knew it would make her happy. she loved your music and you changed the way she perceived sound. thank you for making this beautiful music. every time i play it, it takes me back to those times me and my mom were in the car just chillin and listening, and i feel her around me throughout the whole song, knowing she’s watching over me. i love you. rest in piece brandi shasta costa and baby costa.
Music is extremely powerful, especially music with such passion like this. Your mother is and will always live on through you and anything that touches you such as this song did. Keep your head up that way you can see the light from her smiling down on you guiding you through the rest of your life...
Kurtardım ceylanı avcının elinden ama daha baygın yatar ayılamadı. Kopardım portakalı dalından ama kabuğu soyulamadı. Oldum yıldızlarla haşir neşir ama sayısı bir tamam sayılamadı. Sevdalara dyulamadı. Sevdasız olunamadı.
This song played during my first ever shroom trip ever about 3 years ago after a bad heartbreak, it kept me at peace… days later I went to an MHU, became homeless, moved to a group home and moved back where I now have a job and I’m open to finding love again after finding it for myself, healing better now and thought I’d revisit this song and seen the beautiful comments of peoples stories and love for this song and I’m with you all that this song has done wonders to my well being. Since 3 three years ago I’ve been writing my own song inspired by this song to and it feels amazing to say the least… I can say that I feel free, thank you so much, Tash🙏🏽🤍
I listen to this song a lot. And 100% honest, every single time I listen to this song I am so entranced. I get completely absorbed by this song, wow. If music could transport you to other dimensions, this one is there, and like a magnet it pulls. Much Love for all that you do Tash. Also, I have to say that I enjoy the Live version more compared to the album version.
[Verse 1] I hear the birds when they're singing I hear the sirens when they're ringing But I can't take my mind off of you A thousand words pour out of my mouth Distance over depth is proven unannounced Is it real? Cause I don't feel alright [Chorus] I got this notion In the deepest ocean Calling out my name Screaming out in vain Singing hallelujah [Verse 2] Tell your mother she don't understand Tell your mother she's not listening Why don't you tie my heart with chains made of string I rolled the dice You sealed the deal That don't matter The pain is real I won't follow you Into the dark [Chorus] I got this notion In the deepest ocean Calling out my name Screaming out in vain Singing hallelujah These notions Hmm, in the deepest as ocean Calling out my name Screaming out in vain Singing hallelujah [Outro] Singing hallelujah to you Calling out my name I'm in the deepest ocean Calling out my name Singing hallelujah to you
This is by far the most beautiful song I've ever heard in my 39 years of life. The beginning has such an Explosions In The Sky feel and that's what had me hooked right from the start. Thank you, Tash for coming into my life.
The only word for this is silience; n. the kind of unnoticed excellence that carries on around you every day, unremarkably-the hidden talents of friends and coworkers, the fleeting solos of subway buskers, the slapdash eloquence of anonymous users, the unseen portfolios of aspiring artists-which would be renowned as masterpieces if only they’d been appraised by the cartel of popular taste, who assume that brilliance is a rare and precious quality, accidentally overlooking buried jewels that may not be flawless but are still somehow perfect.
I fucking love you!!!! Your music is amazing. I've never heard anything like it. I'm tired of hearing the same songs play on the radio. We need more music like yours. You will become a legend I believe in you!!!
Hahaha just imagine this being played on mainstream radio stations and people having to pull over to the side because they have to cry when they hear this for the first time. SO glad to see her in Amsterdam this week!
Saw her live yesterday singing this one. Such a divine voice, brought chills and tears to my eyes. Can't wait to hear more of this beautiful soul in the future!!
Where's the goosebumps button? My girlfriend went to see her and said it was the best live perfomance she'd ever seen. Hope I get to see her live one day
This has been the best 7 mins of my month...I just discovered her yesterday and I'm mesmerized by her. What an amazing voice, talent and original sound. HUGE things to come for this beautiful soul
Tash I don't know if you'll see this or not but if you do I just want to thank you for being who you are. Your music has been helping me heal through some really terrible shit. There has been days the sound of your voice and guitar has drowned out the sound of the voices that tell me that I'd be better off dead.when ever I find myself feeling down I'll sit on my balcony overlooking the city light a joint and put on your tiny desk concert video and just get lost in another world. You're a beautiful soul please never stop making the magic you do. Forever a fan Katherine from panama city beach Florida💖
You will get through this friend. I know it's easier said than done but you will be stronger smarter after all is said. You are meant to be here. You have a destiny.

Times get tough for everyone and even though we sometimes feel like we’re drowning when we get overwhelmed by our emotions we must never loose hope. Life is precious but it can also be a tough road to travel. You are beautiful and strong! You are blessed to be alive and worth every single breath you take. Always stay positive and know that you are important. Please know that even though I do not know you, I value and wish nothing but love and happiness to go your way. 🙏🏼
My friend Lucy who is now unfortunately passed shared this with me and others in music therapy. She loved Tash. Your life can end but you take other people’s lives with you when you gov
This song Is Something else! Ur either a scientist or an alien cuz ur hittin all the right vibrations! Only such intelligence know of this Secret science! My soul Dances every Single time i hear these Angelic Notes!!
Music has always been my get away but Tash you take a person to another dimension, a river of euphoria, a sea of calm a place I wouldn't mind getting lost in.
I hear the birds When they're singing I hear the sirens when they're ringing But I can't take my mind off of you A thousand words, pouring out The distance of over there Is moving on and out You said it, you said it'd be alright How 'bout these notions Hmm, they're deep as ocean Calling out my name Screaming out in vain Singing hallelujah Tell your mother, she don't understand Tell your mother, she's not listening Why don't you tear my heart The chain is made of string I roll the dice You seal the deal That don't matter 'Cause this pain will heal I will follow you Into the dark How 'bout these notions Hmm, they're deep as ocean Calling out my name Screaming out in vain Singing hallelujah These notions Hmm, they're deep as ocean Calling out my name Screaming out in vain Singing hallelujah Singing hallelujah to you Calling out my name I'm in the deep end, ocean Calling out my name Singing hallelujah to you
Only discovered her this morning and have already bought tickets to her London show in September. Unbelievable talent. Best artist I’ve come across for years.
this song makes me cry every single time !!! i used to listen it alone every night sitting in the car on the parking lot after countless days in hospital supporting my terminally ill partner being his rock and it was such a huge relief of my emotions and pain with this music and still is like a warm hug from a friend that i haven't got living abroad and being on my own with all problems... Now me 4 years later seeing this song performed live in Wolverhampton, UK 🙏 THANK YOU TASH! You are amazing - You definitely 1000% make this world a better place through your music!!!
Je parle pas anglais, mais vraiment c'est un chef-d'œuvre. Quel magnifique moment qui nous ai offert là, paix et amour sur tous ceux qui liront ce commentaire. Vive l'art, vivez dignement et aimez la vie.
*TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE* YOU ARE LOVED. No ones journey is easy. Everyone at one point or another feels like there are a loser with no options left. You can power through, I promise
I was not expecting this.....I was not expecting this....I have no words. What an amazing felling....the love of my live died....and I'm still stand. For the glory of God. This was an Angel.... God bless
Not many Artists on this planet put as much emotion and heart into their guitar playing and voice like Tash does. I hope people are playing her music for years and years to come. I know I will be. You go Tash 🤟🤘
So nice to see a youtube video comments section just filled with joy and appreciation and happiness…..not a troll or hater in sight. Thats the power of beautiful music.
I Saw Her in concert in Houston,TX and she was Spectacular ❤ !!!!One person Band !!!She sounds exactly like she does on this video ,she is brilliant!!!😎🤙
Hey Tash, I’m a 60yr old from Liverpool UK and I loves ALL music, I’m into chilled hop/jazz at the moment and I came across you 2 days ago watching “Notion” girl, that tune blow my mind…. So emotional like all your songs… Fan for life… Go Girl
I'm just going back through some old RU-vid playlists and came across this and have to say this: Saw you a small Intimate gig in/near SOHO, London, cant remember the date or year, I still have the ticket stub somewhere I think.. Took my best friend at the time on a day out. I know how much she loved your work, She showed me one of your songs just a few days after I'd come across you myself. I saw you were from Australia and loved your work so much I looked up your tour. Saw the gig in London and bought tickets straight away. Two of them. Without knowing who to take. So when she showed me 'Hiding Under the Covers' & 'More Than I Should' I smiled and was so excited. She was taken back by my seemingly over-reaction. I said 'Notion' is my favorite. You should have seen her face! Then I told her I had bought tickets... Oh I can see her now! I still feel her here, just as excited as she was then. She urges me to write this... sadly she is no longer with us in the physical. This and Jungle will always remind me of her. Watching her enjoy your music while I stood at the back wall anxious, but I still enjoyed the music. If I'd have known It would only be a year or so later before she was gone... Man I would have danced my ass off with her, been there at the front with her, singing your lyrics and jumping with her. I will never forget her looking back at me and beckoning me into the crowd arm out. I just shook my head at her. To anxious around all the people to enjoy the very surprise I had gifted her. Charlotte Louise Ford aka 'Charlie', I Love you girl. Forever My Bestie, Charlotte the 1st. Rest In Peace x Tash, this is to let you know, that your songs are amazing and they can cross worlds... Keep going with your work. You are an amazing inspiration ❤🩹
I listen and cry and pray along thank you tash. You are on your own walk, and you're here making it bearable for some of us. Sometimes it's unbearable. And you help. Crying now.
On the summer of 2019 my grandfather got admitted into ICU due to multiple organ failures. The doctor told my family that he may not make it and asked us to prepare for the worst. My mother called me about this when I was at school having fun with my friends. Once I got onto the school bus, I just told my sister to sit beside me and let me cry without anyone noticing. For some reason I chose this song so accompany my sorrow. There's just something about this song that made me feel like someone is patting my back and telling me everything will be okay. Ever since that day this song has a permanent spot in my heart and still remains one of the best songs I have ever heard in my life.
Its beautiful to hear a studio recorded quality of this song. You can really hear all the instruments to their fullest potential. Her busking is amazing but studio quality is spectacular. Both her busking and studio music are spectacular. She is so talented.
Every now and then you find someone who has realised that magic truly exists... it's just that most people call it music. Music is magical and Tash you are a magician beyond many musicians. You didn't just learn to play with your brain. Every cell in your body is playing feeling and living that music and when you live it we live it. Thank you for the gift you are. Coming from respect... you are totally my new girl crush :) I wanna live in that world you create with sound :)
Without the song Notion, I don't think I would be here today! So thank you for providing me with the spirit and strength to endure life's obstacles through the power of your music!! Glad to see you're touring later this summer! Best wishes and infinite thanks to you Ms. Sultana for helping to keep me afloat when I might've otherwise been drowning! Love and Peace
This song always sounds like the start of summer. Cool salt wind from the sea, the warmth of the afternoon sun on my stomach, that first sip of an ice cold soda with the bubbles in your nose. Bless up Tash!
I saw a video of this person playing a guitar on a street corner. I assumed I would hear the same sort of thing I have heard from a hundred street performers, so I passed it by several times. Maybe the universe was waiting for me to be in the right frame of mind, but damn. This hit me like a ton of bricks. Thank you.
This song has saved me many times. I always go back to it when I'm going through a rough patch. It reaches deep into my soul and just does something to me
WOW!! I’m sat in my camper van looking out over the sand dunes on a sunny morning and this song is just making the morning perfect 👌 so much soul in her voice
Fell in love with your music 6 years ago and got to see you live in Vegas (june 2022) It was an ethereal experience I will never forget. Rock on Tash 🙌❤️
I'm a little bit tipsy but damn that door handle placement. Edit 2021: Thanks for the replies! Remember - Be a good person and smile! edit 2024: If you're reading this you are awesome! Smile and be kind!
Saw them live at the State Theatre in Portland ME. Amazing intimate performance, I feel lucky to have been there. I very much hope that you get your wish, because Tash live is an experience like no other.
