Brittle Bones Nicky was the first song I ever heard from Rare Americans.
As a music-lover, the beat and the song itself are incredible.
As a story teller, I envy the sheer amount of story you managed to pack into one song.
Nicky's entire life, his efforts to make something of himself even if that something was never quite the best person, good at heart just dealt a bad hand and doing what he could with what he had.
And then Brittle Bones Nicky 2, his death, his conflict with the good and the evil in his life, the reality that the deck was stacked against him from the beginning. The song was a perfect addition to the original, and ended just as well.
To me, BBN means doing whatever you can with whatever you have, and making the absolute most out of the life you're given, whatever form that takes. A mentality I've always tried to live by, and one I can't help but see perfectly showcased in the songs.

BBN is a perfect illustration of how Rare Americans are incredible storytellers! The entire premise of the song being created out of thin air after seeing an old man on a bench while out on a walk is amazing to me, every part of music in the song works together with the lyrics to create a full world to live in for 3 minutes and five seconds (and it slaps!!)

Brittle Bones Nicky means to me that when life kicks your ass, you kick it back.
I met the band thanks to a friend through this song. Each of your songs has helped me get out of difficult moments believing in myself, and this is the one that has done it the most.
Nicky inspires me to never let anyone take advantage of me again. And, one part that I love about this band is the stories it tells. The story behind the Brittle Bones Nicky song is truly amazing and moving!
Maybe there are many things that you are not, but for me, for me you are the best ;) Brittle Bones Nicky, a song full of feelings and meanings for me, and Rare Americans, my favorite band 4ever! Thanks for everything guys! :D

Brittle bones nicky along with a bunch of other RA songs have gotten me through so much, school is a huge struggle because of my mental health, i love everything RA stands for, your guys’ songs are a reminder for me to stay strong and stand my ground. They make me feel that i can push past whatever’s going on and i can make it in life. You guys are changing lives, never stop what you do ! <3

When I first heard this song, I realized that I was similar to Nicky. I got picked on by others for being small and skinny even if I did nothing to them. It inspired me to start working out and learning martial arts along with self defense. This song helpede figure out what career I wanted and now I finally know what to do with my life. All because I was recommended this song on Spotify. Thank you Rare Americans for helping me changey life for the better! 💪❤

When I first discovered the music video of BBN I was excited I’ve been a Fan of your music for 5 years. Overall what BBN means to me is that in the lyrics “your not gonna push me around” is fighting challenges in life whenever someone gets you down you have to always get back up again. BBN stands as an inspiration of everyone to always have a second chance in this life. Anyways thank you RA for the music and good luck to everyone that is participating in this contest! ❤️

Brittle Bones Nicky really resonated with me, all your songs are personal and I think BBB is no different. I love how even in a few minutes you touched so many hearts and spoke about so many touching topics. I’m glad to be a SLZ/rare Americans fan so much and I love how none of you let anyone tell you how to do things. Keep it up your all great and I hope you all the best 🍓🍓🍓

Brittle Bones Nicky is what introduced me to the Rare Americans and your style of music. The song in itself is a bop and I love the character, but I'm so grateful to have been introduced to the rest of your songs. There are so many of your songs that hit me emotionally like Walkin' n Talkin', Ryan & Dave, Baggage, Mama Bear, Berlin, PHD (especially PhD, watching that video always brings me to tears).

hearing Brittle bones nicky for the first time made me discover you guys and the amazing music you’ve all created for us. I’ve practically grown up with your music, and having recently turned 18 i’m glad to say your music really helped me through some really tough times in my childhood and genuinely taught me some life lessons on being who i want to be, and not letting others define who i am. Love you guys! thank you for everything you’ve done, especially making this incredible song!!

Brittle bones Nicky came to me as an ad that I’d listen to over and over again till I looked it up and found you guys and your amazing songs. Brittle bones Nicky inspired me to stick up for myself when I felt I couldn’t after being groomed as a child. It means so much to me and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you making this. I love ya man <3
