I’m not religious- but once again I’m reminded there is a soul. A strange duality. All I know is I can’t deny her power and beauty. Years later I still come back to this. It’s fkin incredible

Indulge me for being oddly personal for a youtube comment. I've a degenerative neuromuscular disorder. It comes with it secret ugliness like sleepless nights of excruciating nerve pain. And despite the typical social masks we all wear, there are times I break down over the inequality of fortune. The reason I bring this personal confessions up is to put it into perspective how lovely, how wonderful and how much it makes the heart fucking soar to not only be able to share in such tremendous talent inspired despite the curses of nature, but also how generally positive, honest, and kind the comments section is here. The real pain of disorder is often the degradation and feeling of being less; it genuinely lifts that weight so much when we've gifts like this. Thank you to both Gaelynn and her supporters.

The struggle of placing burdens on people you care for and watching them fold is as hard a thing as anything I've ever done. This song and your story promise I can find something and someone to weather this with me and no matter how many "friends" fold, I may again hope to find someone worthy of my story and the pain that comes with me. Someone that has earned a place at my side. I've listened to this song for years before I finally heard every word. Keep going and know I appreciate you and what you've done

The first song is pure experience. Wounded, depressed, bounded to pain with the ropes of hope. Unreal. Just stellar. Kudos.

I had the pleasure of meeting her yesterday. My dad and I were playing a gig at a resort, and I was very surprised to see HER there! At a resort in northern Wisconsin lol. Very humble, very kind person. She got up and sang "Little Boxes". I had to ask "Didn't I see you on Tiny Desk Concert?" So surreal and so awesome!

I'll always remember the feeling I had the first time I listened this. I often let youtube running for music while I'm working, not really listening what I hear, but this made me stop and care. I was fascinated by this strange voice, by this painful and beautiful melody. "Who's singing this ? I want to know." Gaelynn Lea's performance is beyond normality, in the best way. What she's achieving is incredible, of course, but the most incredible thing is how strongly she touches souls and bring me tears. I come back here when I feel down, broken, and song after song, her music heals me, from bitter to sweet. Every. Single. Time. So, I wanted to thank you for this treasure.

A couple of years ago I attended a small music festival, and was lucky enough to see Gaelyn Lea perform live. The festival had a big stage for the headliners and a small stage off to the side, which is where Gaelyn played. I don't think most people at the festival knew anything about her. There was a small crowd when she started, but within about 5 minutes the small stage tent was completely packed, and by her second song there were more people at the small stage than at the big stage. The crowd was utterly silent, it was only a 30 minute set, the hairs on my arm and neck stood up the entire time.

Actually I came here because I was exploring the possibility of playing my five string like a cello. Someone mentioned this woman, so here I am…..question answered. Then I found another site where there was a discussion of new kinds of strings that can render the sound of a violin or viola more like a cello. Thank you Gaelin……as I have discovered over and over again in my 80 years, as an outside the box person, anything is possible….you just have to keep working at it until you achieve your goal. As a side note, it’s not so much about her achieving this with a disability…it’s about perseverance. Many people are disabled in their thoughts…..never able to complete a goal….are just dreamers.

Cried so hard my face hurts. I’ve literally just had my soul touched.❤️

The quality of her voice, rawness of string timbre, chords, everything about this performance is beautifully vulnerable.

I always love it when my own personal biases. stereotypes and preconceived notions get a punch in the face. . This was stunning, magical and uplifting! Thanks NPR for once again exposing me to culture and beauty that I did not expect. Gaelynn need to go on tour!

what a performance, seriously exploded my emotional bounds!!!!

I’m intrigued how her fiddling speaks sweetly to a part of me I never knew I had.

10 seconds in and this is already something SERIOUS

Seeing the thumbnail and not knowing the artist, I just expected this to be a violin concert. I was very surprised when she started singing. Well done, very beautiful.

Admist the cacophony of the pandemic and politics, this was a surreal experience. This woman is a blessing.

Watching this, I realized for the first time how truly blessed I am to be alive at the same time as Gaelynn Lea and able to hear her music. "Moment of Bliss" may be the loveliest melody I've ever heard.

This is one of the most honest and raw showings of pure talent and art I've ever witnessed. Started crying as soon as she started singing the first song. The Irish mystic aura is felt in her music.

Got to be honest I clicked out of curiosity, didn't expect to cry by how genuinely beautiful the music is.

Sweet Jesus! The first song is one of the most beautiful sounds I've ever been fortunate enough to fill my ears with. Thank you.

I am guilty of using the word "amazing" too much. Like everyone, I fall into speech patterns out of laziness and end up eroding the true meaning of words over time. Then I stumble across something like this and wish I had kept that word in reserve for times like this. This is beautiful, honest, and raw. I am sitting at the computer typing and deleting, typing and deleting, trying to find the words to articulate why Gaelynn's music is so good and I just can't find the words. So instead, I will just say thank you to everyone involved to making this happen on any level. The world needs more of this right now. Also I am not crying...you're crying...ok...I am crying.

stickfigurehero :) very sweet & heartfelt comment . Blessings

My ex wife introduced me to her. I’m coming back here almost a decade after the first time I listened to this. Brought me to tears then, brought me to tears now. Extremely powerful. The music, the lyrics, and the sheer super human ability of her. I bow down to her gracefulness. And to my ex, wherever you are, I wish you the best that life has to offer.

Human capability surpasses EVERYTHING that they want us to think. We can all be great!! She is great! You are great!!! Remember that!
