August (Original Julia Nunes) circa 2004

[insideviolettehaven]

I LOVE THE SUPER OLD SCHOOL JULIAAAA... *tears*

[sunsetstarjessaray]

I just bought this song :D made my WHOLE life

[pacman0289]

This song makes me smile when I have no reason to. And when I really don't feel like trying anymore. You're beautiful and awesome. Thanks for making life seem so much better than it really is. Your biggest fan,  Jake

[deadrising50]

I love this song.

[chriscobonham]

3:19 <3 So much <3

[durkniblick]

And these could be the happiest days of my life...

[mrspacemonkey102]

how nice:) i wish you best julia! <3

[GRACEATARMS]

...aaaaaand this has been playing in my head all day. Your lyrics are very moving (especially for having been written when you were so young) and the melodies here are so uplifting they could draw tears from the right mood. I/my band will be making a tribute/cover/video response soon (unless you don't like those)! Really, this is excellent work. You've made a band full of fans/followers/subscribers/oth­er digital statuses that signify appreciation!

[SentencedToBeth]

Marry me? <3

[PseudoAnnie]

Can I play this at my wedding?

[matibkn100]

:·)



[deathslice60]

Your just amazing! You inspired me even more!

[pdxgolfer]

If I were a guitar, I'd be a mustached guitar, which would make me a cool guitar.

[JStemansson]

this song is still, after all these years, the best song of yours.

[fanibarbaro]

Julia, Would you do the honors of covering Wagon Wheel?

[LupinLoverGuitarist]

how have i never heard this song before. makes me feel nostalgic.. so beautiful

[lauralovesisrael]

Her guitar has a mustache.

[Hazelnutfilling]

This song makes me cry sometimes... because I am at the age of my life that Julia was when she wrote this, and the song just perfectly describes how i feel lately :)

[alexhalbritter]

Tonight was an "August" night for me. They're rare. But this song is all I need after a night like tonight.

[bryp8941]

i love this song so much

[LouiseJenna94]

Dude, if I were gay...

[thehappyhomeless]

favorite.. :) song on urs.

[WhoWritesTheseSongs]

this will always be my favorite song of hers.

[LarryEleventyOne]

Please ignore me, just feeling down and this is the only song which will help me. I'm using this ---> 0:29 to keep replaying it

[LarryEleventyOne]

@LarryEleventyOne Although if you want to use this yourself, go ahead. It'll skip straight to the song

[colorfulmelody]

My favorite song of yours by far...it's so hauntingly beautiful, I often find that it brings me to tears. I wished this received more recognition. Either way, you have a true talent Julia, you go girl :)

[carpediEMILY]

girl. crush.

[NoNameCharlie1]

This song just convinced me to buy and download all the songs on your music site. If you don't make it huge one day in the music biz, something is seriously wrong with the world. You wrote this at what, 17? Amazing.

Also - super cute right at 3:31 right before change of scenes, looks like you're remembering that summer.

[Thetheif90]

I could never explain why, but this song makes my heart melt.

Maybe I'm soppy, but it makes me think of my girlfriend. I'm sure the other 292,750 people who have viewed this video can sympathise.

[JulyIsNotMyBirthday]

Damn,THAT's the simple combination that makes me feel happy, Julia and her guitar (or uke ;P)!

and hey Julia..I love the way you smile at 3:18 or something. that's really a song that makes me smile everytime I listen to it!

I love you! Hailey

thumbs up if you feel the same way =)

[ph0bicc]

You make beautiful music. 

[xindestructibleonex]

This song is essentially my theme song right now. It's August and I'm with a girl I love more than anything. Thanks, Julia. Your songs hit home. <3

[saminomnom]

who else keeps pressing replay :)

[Nikodaddy1]

Dear Julia. To me ,this is the best song what you ever mate..So please try to go back end maybe you catch those years again.  P.S:Don't sweat you still the best !! Richard Seattle.

[dankoch2010]

Nice song.

[KirstieElizabethPie]

I've probably heard this at least 10 times already.. and I'm still going to listen twice in a row.

[x7aranethon7x]

This is the first original I was exposed to of yours. Great job on your editing :) and what amazing talent in your music :) Don't stop until your at the top :)

[CityLights452]

Okay Julia so here's the plan. I'm going to get rediculously rich and pay to fly you to Grand manan New brunswick Canada and pay you to preform this song at my wedding for my first dance lol ... Okay we're clear right? lol Now we just have to wait for me to get rich! Come on money jump into my pockets!

[destikgurl]

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<3 Julia!!!! you're epic!!!!!I know all your lyrics by heart! even your covers!!!!! this song is one of my favorites because August is the month I was born in!

[theUnicornOfPower]

You know what? I caught myself humming the melody of this song and even singing the line "it's a simple combination that makes me all happy" ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS and i couldn't realize whose song and which song it was! then all of the sudden I thought about old school Jaaaaaaa and went thru some of her old songs, I clicked this one and I was like... SHIIIIT that's the song I was humming for years! and it's funny that at the beginning she said that she almost forgot about it, just like i did...

[6038311004]

I'm a lover of death metal.... but i also love YOU! You are an artist.

[DaxMagic]

This song makes me feel so good!!!

AMAZING ! ! !

[justin6686]

im really diggin this i recently just got enought time to watch all ur videos and this is my favorite

[x3ro327]

whenever i take my guitar to play, i start with this song. i just love it :)

[VisualOrgasm69]

3:27.... So cute.

[jusea31]

full of dreams is this video............ love, really :D

[ThePoodlekicker]

sorry to stalk you BUT I THINK I LOVE YOU JULIA .... what the leanne rhymes with julia or orange ? i dont know , i just wanted something to rhyme with banana..... coconut ! D'oh!

[myspringers]

@jaaaaaaa saw u in los angeles in july, everybody singing this song with you was my favorite part...

[hjestevens1]

i falling in love with this girl!!!!!

[parkerhewan]

This song brings me to tears. I listened to it for the first time on a warm summer night alone in a field. I can't describe how amazing it is. Your voice, eyes, and everything about this is just perfect. Thank you for putting this incredible song into my life <3

[wetllama]

This is my favourite song of yours (by a slim margin, of course. I love all of your songs). So bittersweet, and your eyes... a man could get lost in there.

Um...

(thinkofsomethinglesscreepythi­nkofsomethinglesscreepythinkof­somethinglesscreepy)

Bunnies are cute!

[jaaaaaaa]

@OnlyF2P i literally just listened to it

i hear no similarities

[OnlyF2P]

@jaaaaaaa

oh okay. still love you.

[THENEWJMONEY507]

@jaaaaaaa You definitely have a soft, innocent country twang to this. I love it.

[dexter2433]

so cute at 3:30 when you shrug your shoulders

[axel1973w]

AWESOME SONG!

[BeatDemon08]

This song reminds me of when me and my friend were laying down on a doc by the beach with our feet in the water. and i listened to this song on my ipod. now its winter and it's really depressing now..

[jekk23]

I think you have a masterpiece there dear. Sweet as morning dew it is, thanks for making my evening.

[BE4BEAR]

what is wrong with 55 people?

[ArsonBeanTanks]

@BE4BEAR They wish they were Andy Martin.

[BE4BEAR]

listened to this so many times, know all the words but by far still my favourite Nunyez song :)

[keystermay]

This and Julia's song "regrets" are my two favourites ! I cannot stop listening to them! <3

[beatlesqueen4ever]

I love you loads <3

[thisgreyoblivion]

Please tell me this is on a CD that I missed. Will you please play for my wedding in Key West?

[iamalisue]

@thisgreyoblivion it's on her EP, "I Think You Know"

[mkhex87]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! i love youuuuuuuuu... i never thought i'd be fanatic over a person.. but i am not ashamed.. ;) I hope to intrigue you someday julia nunes.. or at least develop a casual acquaintanceship with you.  some day..some day... <3 Im a 16 year old guitar/flute playing math doing high school boy. (mann!)excuse me.. and i willlllllll cross paths with you and your face some day.

[peacetomomo]

@mkhex87 LOL! That's cute :3

[mkhex87]

@mkhex87 whoa.. i've never had a top comment on youtube before. hopefully julia reads this. i need to become a better musician first tho. when I'm about 25, and JuNu is a superstar, maybe i'll get to open up for her. 

[DoodleTaffy]

@mkhex87 If you do, please write about it on here, so fellow Nunes lovers will know that your dream came true!

[RainFeel09]

wow!! AWESOME! and nice song too!

[aleefo]

i was feeling awfully nostalgic tonight about my high school days. time sure does fly. so fast. this song is awesome.

[devilchick2098]

I would have my sister sing along.

The 2 of us could never be nearly as good as you though

[josholosh]

This version of the song is easily the best.The album version just doesn't have the same sound,its too clean :(

[HopeMerie]

of all your brilliance, THIS is the one that i keep coming back to. Its flawless. Thank you for sharing this <3

[KylieJoe79]

This song makes me cry sometimes :(

[amante3456]

When she stops singing the harmony at 3:15 she makes the cutest little shrug ever.

[IITubo]

I tried to download this song by eMule.. But i found only porn videos.. FUCK!

p.s: You are amazing.. I'm Italian and here you are not very famous.. But i promise that i will make you famous here too!

[clemep]

Andy Martin probably feels really bad now. And you're taken. He must be PISSED... Assuming he remembers you.

[TheMultiUber]

P.S. i wish this and your other originals were on rockband

[perigon84]

This song really is masterful. It is emotionally honest and pure. True in the purest sense. Never be embarrassed or shamed by a true expression of love. When I see you in concert, you will hear me yell "AUGUST"

[TheMultiUber]

@perigon84 haha!

[fantaford12]

Same with me, I reload and listen to it from time to time. It has some very special feeling.

I don't know if this is gonna sound creepy or anything, but I take out my IPod every once in a while at night and listen to this song at a low volume. It's almost like you're already dreaming, somehow.
