Hello Josh, nice to meet you, I'm from Argentina, South America, and I was seeking for good music in a sleepless night, and I finally found your great work (please excuse me my English)
I was listening yours songs and really they liked me so much (because my job in broadcasting in several last years, I was had a pleasure of listening a lot of and variety of music!), and permit me congratulate you!!! (too about your election of Creative Commons License!)
When I listened this song (and because it was with subtitle!) it caught my attention, specially when it say about your friend, and really it moved me, maybe because my personal problems, maybe because my faith. And, when your friend asked you about God and continuing with the next lines, I thought to write you (although I don't like very much write comments in general!). With all due respect, I wish want to say to you that the answer exists, that the way exists, the only way, it's not a bed of roses of course, but it's the better way that somebody can take. Maybe you know the answer, o maybe you don't want to take it in spite of you [know it]. You can see him in the nature, in yourself, in the others persons... But you can see too the evilness in the world, and the many "without answers questions" (no?). I encourage you to believe, to humble you before him, to go to him with yours needs and problems (I don't tell you that I don't have problems), and to read if you want the Bible, and too to talk your friend about this and cheer him up...
Well, Josh, nice to meet you again, excuse me the long of this "comment", you can counting on me if you want, and I hope you go on with the music!!
Best regards,
David.
This song, wow. Really, I got goosebumps. I'm going to sing this at the talent show in my Highschool.
This song is literally amazing. Every time that I listen to it, I get goosebumps. The part where you just sing with nothing behind you leaves you so vulnerable and forces us to listen to the lyrics that you sing. It is such a perfect addition to the song, and it really adds to the overall story. I would absolutely love to play this at my high school talent show, but there are no tabs up. If you ever have the time, I would be so grateful if you would post some for all to learn from.
Thank you for sharing your talent and time.

Thanks a million, Brandon! And absolutely, here you go!
hiiiii i love you song is such an aspiration to me i really like it and i sang that song at my school
i like the way you sing the word stars... haha!
you are amazing as usual.
In a world where most of us are fed supernatural ideas from birth which we rarely question, it takes a strong mind to write this song. It is not negative, it is not divisive. Instead, it offers a message of unity. Here's hoping this way of thinking becomes more prevalent, so that we all invest in the time we have here on Earth and not in a yet-to-be-proven afterlife. Thank you very much for this thoughtful and empowering song.
You are, well, where do I start? Amazing. Incredible. I love your music, <3
Thanks a million, Sophie! :D
I absolutely love this song. It makes me think when someone dies are they still with you or is it just memories of that person? I think that a part of that person always remains with us in our concience; which is why we tend to dream about those who we've lost. But they also remain in our memory for what they have done to inspire our lives. Is God Real? I just can't answer such a question.
Thank you Josh, many thanks for your music. Whenever I am stuck in my work, I let myself be inspired by your music. "Together on our own" was the first song I've heard of you. It has really touched me and still does every time I hear it. It is one of the best songs I've heard in my life.
Thank You
Andi
Thanks a million, Andi! That's awesome.
Hi Mr. Woodward, I am Aqsa from Pakistan. I just love your songs and their lyrics are so beautiful. I just love ur work. Keep it up. Just wanted to say "welcome to Pakistan".. :)

...then no matters how much you love others, the journey will still pointless for every being on this universe and the self-sacrifice of others for your life will be an stupid and empty action at the end.
Sorry, but is true.
The sun is going to become a red giant and swallow the earth in 7 billion years, erasing any trace of our history. So you're right - to some extent, everything we do is empty and meaningless. But we can either curl up into a fetal position in the corner; or live life, create art, and try to bring happiness to the short and fragile lives of the fellow bags of skin with whom we share the earth.
Yes, we could just to avoid the reality of our existence (if the affirmation from atheism is true, of course), isn't different from playing pool to forget that you have to pay the mortgage on your house and you are almost out of money, etc. Our life wouldn't have any objective meaning (and the human being his intrinsic value!!) if God do not exists, even will be equally meaninful like a cartoon or a movie show, with a start and an end, no matter how hard you try, your acts wouldn't affect the destiny of the universe and everything inside it; The love, the joy and that sort of feeling will disappeared with your own death and the one of everybody else... sadly.
I always asked to myself this sort of thing every time I ear this song, and if you right, well, we never would realize if you was right (obviously!)... But I'm pretty sure that atheism is not true, so I have alot of hope! :)
