Frightened Rabbit - Swim Until You Can’t See Land https://youtu.be/dSCQLEzm0nw

I found and listened to it a lot through a hard time. A few other songs of theirs grew on me as well. The lead artist also did a solo album that is moving. They later sadly took their own life. In retrospect, it kind of feels like we shared a struggle that they helped me through.

Hutchison had tweeted “Be so good to everyone you love. It’s not a given. I’m so annoyed that it’s not. I didn’t live by that standard and it kills me. Please, hug your loved ones”, followed by “I’m away now. Thanks.”
