Even in the bible, Jesus promised “in this world we will have trouble,” so we should just expect it, right? That may be true, but it doesn’t mean we won’t still be shocked or surprised when the tough times come.
We don’t want to deal with pain or heartache, but it’s just a part of living. “It ain’t right, the hardness of the soul / Now close your eyes and spin around / Say, hard times, you could find / That it ain’t the way that you want / But it’s still alright” He’s singing about when life gets hard. “And It’s Still Alright” is a beautifully haunting song and a perfect addition to his already stunning discography. He has incredible control over his vocals he knows when to keep it soft and harmonize or when to push harder and add gravel. The way he is able to convey emotion in his voice is uncanny. His voice is gruff and occasionally his words are slightly indecipherable, but the feeling behind it is undeniable. Rateliff’s roots are gospel and blues and it shows. The song is soft, gently building, and deeply impactful. The melody is major, but the pacing and somber tone of the lyrics provide a somewhat melancholy feeling. The strings and a steel guitar fill the background while the acoustic provides the rhythm and percussion throughout the song.
Already the feeling of sorrow and heartache permeates the air before Nathaniel utters a word. The song begins with an acoustic guitar and a twangy electric overlaid with heavy reverb. Positive Content: Overall message of not giving up hope in dark times no matter what. Other negative themes: General sadness of grief and entertaining the idea of “giving up.” Language: One mention of the word d*mn – “I’ll be d*mned” The music video has what appears to be an altar, but no portrayals of worship, in particular, show up. Spiritual Content: One could say the mentions of grief and hope are spiritual, but nothing outright spiritual is conveyed. “And It’s Still Alright” was written specifically about his loss of Swift, his bitter divorce, and finding hope in the dark. Not only has Nathaniel recently had to walk the difficult road of divorce, but in July 2018, Rateliff’s longtime friend and producer for his work with the Night Sweats, Richard Swift, passed away after complications from a long battle with alcohol addition. The album’s focus will be on grief, unraveling tragedy, coping with loss, and still maintaining one’s optimism. I still continue to live, and I still continue to find joy. Rateliff made a short, yet powerful statement regarding this upcoming release: “I think this album is a reminder that we all go through hardship, but regardless of the hardship, everything ends up where it’s supposed to.
#S.O.B NATHANIEL RATELIFF LYRICS FULL#
Nathaniel Rateliff released the title track of his upcoming album, And It’s Still Alright, as a single on January 8th and the full album is set to release on Feb 14th, 2020. His lyrics are heartfelt and emotional, often exploring life troubles, how he manages to get by, and the joyfulness of love. Where the music they make is typically more energetic, the music Nathaniel makes on his own is closer to vintage, “Americana” folk music. Nathaniel may be best known for his more recent work with the Night Sweats, his soulful, blues-rock band. His first album release was in 2007 with his band Born In The Flood. He picked up the guitar at age 13 after his father passed away. Nathaniel Rateliff began playing drums for his family’s gospel band at just seven years old. The foot-stomping rhythm and gruff voice had us hooked, and I’ve been listening to everything he records ever since. I had no idea what a goldmine I had found! Right away, the first song was Nathaniel Rateliff and his band the Night Sweats playing their big hit “S.O.B.” (content warning: adult language and discussion of alcohol addiction and recovery). We both love folk music so I knew this would be a hit. Around a year or so ago, I started a radio called Americana Folk for a trip to New Orleans with my husband. I love starting “radios” under my favorite genres so I can hear artists I would likely never be introduced to otherwise.
I use Spotify basically all day, every day to listen to music. Genre: Americana folk, soulful blues, acoustic
