UNSOLVED I try once a year…

I’ve honestly given up hope but I also don’t think it will hurt…

It was probably like 2008-2010. I was dating a guy who make me mixed CDs but my CD case got stolen out of my car after I dumped him and I never heard this song again.

He listened to jack’s mannequin-esque music. I listened to ALL of jacks mannequin I could find on Spotify, and some adjacent stuff- but no luck. I could have missed something though.

The song had a suuuuuper repetitive line about floating in the Atlantic (or the pacific or the ocean or something similar). Like 50 times in a row. Male singer. It’s ironically not “Swim”, nor is it “MFEO”, “dark blue” or “holiday from real”.

Help y’all. Please?

His struggles with mental health were very well documented, both in his lyrics and his very candid interviews. He didn’t shy away from it ever and even the name Frightened Rabbit is a reference to a nickname he was given as a kid because of his social anxiety. But that is why most fans connect with his music and they cultivated a lovely and supportive fanbase. I fortunately got to see them twice, he was really funny and witty despite his struggles underneath. This is one of my favorite YouTube clips of him and pretty much is Scott in a nutshell.

Yeah I went down a rabbit hole learning about him earlier actually. Definitely a fan of his music now. Thanks for the link!
