Nothing As It Seems vs Just Breathe

Post by **stip** » Fri April 03, 2026 2:07 am

just breathe gets bonus points for 'i'm a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love', which is quietly one of my favorite lyrics in the catalog. But NAIS is atmosphere done right

Just Breathe because it’s fun to play on guitar.

Tuolome > Just Breathe

Just Breathe wore on me pretty quickly for some reason. Maybe because it threw open the door for a bunch of white girl wedding fans. Felt more like a Train song. Like the dastardly Drops of Jupiter.

And then Future Days came along. And then the Haves came along…

Willie Nelson didn’t cover Drops of Jupiter, tho.

Now I’m imagining a Willie Nelson cover of Nothing As It Seems.

Pretty sure Barry would have a field day with Just Breathe fans.

Future Days is my favorite of the bunch. I still listen to it all the time. I think the issue with Just Breathe is that is an oddly in your face chorus that never fully sat right with me.
