Gravity Rides Everything

I didn’t start listening to Modest Mouse until I was in my late 30’s. It was like discovering a whole new planet after growing up on country and grunge rock

such a liberating song, isaac brock has a way with words, it makes me feel at ease with myself and the universe. fuck work, fuck college, fuck achievements, fuck being sucessful, yeah, all those things are going to come in time and everything will fall right into place. fuck anxiety, man and fuck other people, amen.

I think modest mouse is the only band that people have to truly discover for themselves. You can't just play dashboard and say "this bands great huh? " They had to work their way to being that ordinary and radio friendly (still great don't get me wrong ) but you listen to the lonesome crowded west or the moon and Antarctica.. those two right there still hold perfection those songs will never be radio rock cowboy dan will be firing that rifle in the sky for years on end and it will still bump. Modest Mouse is the only band I can listen to an album of theirs and feel completely peaceful yet startled and unnerved lol like getting a wisdom tooth pulled after blasting two zanz and slurping down two Bud Lite tall boys lol

I discovered weed and Modest Mouse at the same time. Needless to say, my world was changed

True beauty. Sorrowful and meaningful, yet appreciative. Modest Mouse is up there with the best lyricists of all time.

Sometimes you forget the beauty of music, and then you remember..

this is everything. star filled nights. driving. sad. happy. wondering about the future. its everything.

this song meant a world to me after i quit school in 2006. i was 18 and i wanted to do my abitur (germany), but my math teacher had a problem with me and all of a sudden his grade broke my recommendation for the high school. i had completely no idea of what i should do now and no plan B. i began to smoke weed all day, i didnt go out to meet people and i took a lot of valium because of panic attacks. my world felt apart. despaired of this my parents organised me a job in a bakery factory. i had to get up every morning at 4am while everyone was asleep. i drove through the city with my bike on empty roads and listened to this song. almost every day. i felt like i was livin in a different world apart from my friends and people at my age. and it felt so unreal to be around with people which came from a completely different social area like me with no school graduation etc.. but exactly this was the thing i needed to get in touch with. it opened my eyes to see what it takes to get up every morning and work in a factory at a assembly line. and these people didnt have a big option to do other things. today im very happy about this experience and this song will be forever mine. and in 1 month my daughter will be born and i want to sing it to her when she has to fell asleep. dont give up guys it will all float on allright.

a song that could play at the end credits of my life.

I kinda can’t imagine the world without this song anymore. It’s one of those songs.

The most beautiful poetic ode to physics ever written.

Still riding gravity! So many smiles!

Oh gotta see, gotta know right now What's that riding on your everything? It isn't anything at all Oh gotta see, gotta know right now What's that writing on your shelf In the bathrooms and the bad motels? No one really cared for it at all Not the gravity plan Early, early in the morning It pulls all on down my sore feet I wanna go back to sleep In the motions and the things that you say It all will fall, fall right into place As fruit drops, flesh it sags Everything will fall right into place When we die, some sink and some lay But at least I don't see you float away And all the spilt milk, sex and weight It all will fall, fall right into place

Have traveled many miles with this tune in my ears. Thanks for the memories! More than 20 years ago when I was a lonely school kid

Woke up with this song in my head

It all will fall. Fall right into place.

My favorite Modest Mouse song, I left the wine line when they played this in Denver

You always ask me why I find myself on corners every once in awhile. My favorite song by him I think. That lyric feels like every struggle I’ve ever endured. That probably makes no sense to most but this song continues to provide a brief moment of comfort when feeling invisible and alone.

I discovered them late. A buddy of mine introduced mm. I was lucky. Grew up in the 90s so this was the music of my late 20s early 30s. 41.. Still rockin it

My brother introduced me to Modest Mouse in the 1990's I was in my early teens. I still love the band. I have seen them live multiple times. They put on an amazing live show. See you in Chicago.
