I honestly feel very bad for you Emma. Your background as a blogger means many people think they know everything about you and so feel the need to just criticize everything you do, especially relating to your music. I think you’ve done an amazing job, especially since you are an independent artist and the fact that the song is doing so well shows that you’re on the right track. Also people need to realise it’s pop music. It’s not meant to be taken so seriously. The song is a bop, plain and simple. Honestly, you’ve come so far as a musician Emma and I am so damn proud. Never mind the naysayers. Xx
bazy of course you’re right, but it’s very apparent that this song wasn’t intended to be inspiring. The song itself is about feeling petty, a feeling we’ve all had. Emma really captured that in the song, it’s fun, lighthearted and feel good. So yes, while you are right, it wouldn’t apply in this case.
god, i agree 100%. the one thing i couldn't believe while reading all the comments claiming to be "constructive criticism" in the music video was people actually believing they knew emma better than emma knows herself ("it's just not you. you're just not this kind of person." like. y'all know her personally, or?). that's not how it works, and it's sad that people believe it is. thank you for a refreshing & level-headed comment!
I've never been v interested in the genres you typically lean towards in your songs, (most folks don't like every genre, so that's not a bad thing!) so even if your music isn't my personal cup of tea, I can still recognize that they're bops! Had 'Dirt' it stuck in my head all week! I think people are having difficulty differentiating between personal taste and actual quality. I think the song is pretty good and definitely catchy! I'm just not into pop most of the time :)
Me: "I need a quick break from my history internal, i'll watch a quick 10 min youtube video." Also Me: *Makes sure i'm watching the 40 minute extended cut*
oh my god, i just realised that plot holes is in this video !! i’ve been rewatching your vlogs as a background thing recently, and was not expecting to hear plot holes here - to this day i personally think it’s one of your best songs ever :)
I don’t really listen to all your music, but I think Dirt is really amazing. I actually just recently downloaded it and I’ve been listening to it since.
I absolutely love Dirt. It is a song that is needed within the current music culture because some people need a song they can sing along to as a creative outlet when they are dealing with crappy people.
People can say what they want about Dirt, but the fact that it has already been played more on Spotify than 'Don't come home' (which is my fav song by you btw) says enough, I think. It's halfway to the amount of plays that 'Nothing Without You' has. Facts don't lie, people like 'Dirt' ! Love the sound of the song you are singing at 5:20 , I'm so excited for more of your music Emma!
I love how mellow plot holes sounded you could just Bob along to the beach I love it already, I really want to give you a hug too but I’m also going to save hug. Congratulations on all your success so far you deserve every bit of it you’ve worked your ass off nice one!!
Thank youuuuu! People don't say it enough that you shouldn't stop being proud of what your making ! Ever! I might create something and not feel like it's my best work but it's important to feel proud that you spent time on something
I know there are so many things about these vlogs that I love, but watching you and your sister is one of my favourite parts... you seem to be really close and it really looks like she looks up to you and you have a lot of fun! Still loving these vlogs and Dirt and I can't wait for the new album
I actually really like your new song, Emma! Not too much first, but it really grew on me. Now I can’t stop singing it, lol. And I LOVE the new aesthetic! Don’t let the stupid people get to you
When I first didn't listen to Dirt, I wasn't very keen but I wanted to put it on my playlist to support you on Spotify. And it's finally grown on me! XD I was singing along to it in my kitchen yesterday. What a 'bop'! (Is that the right term? haha)
Emma, I just want to write a little thank you note. Every time I see you working on music in these vlogs I just get so inspired to create myself. Thank you. I'm still very curious to hear the album and looking forward to see you play in Hamburg in October where I can hopefully tell you this again in person.
Emma, wasn't a huge fan of most of your music, still proud of all the stuff you've done and how far you've come since I first subbed. That being said, I really dig "Dirt". Even the folks I know who are far from Pop fans admitted it wasn't complete trash and was catchy as hell. (Even surprised that a vlogger made decent music) I really can't wait for the next single and the whole album. Also, "Generic pop trash", said people who've clearly never listened to pop.
Love you Emma also I LOVE Dirt I listen to it at least once every day xx the bad reviews on Dirt aren’t about you it’s about the song and not everyone will like the genre you like and I like xx 💓💓💓hope you get everything you want in life because you an amazing person xxxx
I’ve done dance all my life, so yeah maybe you wouldn’t dance as well as me(not saying I’m amazing😂) but you tried and that’s what matters. If you want to dance in your music videos then go dance in them, especially if it’s fun for you. I’m glad that you love what you’re making❤️❤️
I agree, always keep writing. Even in the shit songs, there's always a line or a refrain or a small riff/chord progression that you can use for other songs
People don't like the DIRT dance moves?! I do the crossed over forearm roll up and down LITERALLY every time at "If you keep looking, then you're gonna find me."
Daniel Bryan!! * clap clap clapapa* Daniel Bryan! I pooped myself on that news Emma hahah Another week another great to watch Ipoad! Also you're gonna get criticised no matter what you do but you know you're good and so do we! Keep improving Emma! The talking on the phone Anxiety is annoying and horrible i have that too
You know what? Emma could really use one of those vote polls. Just for her to see that 20% madly love the mv, 20% hate it and the rest is im the middle. With lots of reasons why and how would they do it better. Just to make the audience busy and envolved. Why you need soo much stress if you can just create instead. Take from your youtube people what you need and dont pounder upon unneded stuff. It does not matter whether I love what Emma does or hate, if in the next one or the one sfter that I can see her having fub and being proud of herself. 60% of people that write bad stuff do it because they see her self doubt. With love ;)
at 14:17 I realised I have (and am currently wearing) the exact same pyjamas as you! I was so chuffed I made my boyfriend come look. Also so nice to see you growing with your music really loved the lil snippet in this ipoad
I feel like the world is crushing you and it's up against you but the world will learn not to crush emma blackery alive ❤❤❤ I love you your my inspiration and my source of hope in life keep going your doing great
⚝ Damn it! Now I wanna curl up in a lobster and eat some Rice Krispie Treats... XD ⚜ I'm glad everything is going smoothly for you now Emma! Its good to see you busy and productive! Enjoy the small breaks you get between albums too! I've been wanting to send you a print of the Digital Portrait I did of you that I posted on Twitter. Or maybe even send the file to an email so you could keep the high quality version, I'd truly love for you to have it. Maybe if you ever go on tour again in the UK I'll bring a print of it with me. ^_^ It's good to see you're enjoying books too! I was also wondering, do you have a Twitch? Because I've been interested in watching you play the Sims 4 whenever you have time. :P Oh yeah! I loved that preview of 'Burn The Witch' The context of it reminded me of a Kate Bush song! - Have you listened to Kate Bush? She's one of my favourites along-side Björk! Love you so much Emma! Remember to drink lots of water and take care of yourself! - Peach 🍑 Xx
fUCK the hater people! But... consider some rational advice please. I loooove you vlogging cause I remember how it was to persue a dream and have a messed life alone. I got a frustrating big experience withan autoral band. I didn't think you're find out who you are musically, it's difficult! Who I think YOU ARE... You know... your videos.. when you talk about all the mess things that happen to you. This is you!!!! talk about this!!! Funny thing: Selena Gomez recently begins to really being took serious after her vulnerable CD. Sounds vulnerable!!!!!! Like Adele! Like skyscraper.. Just show us your heart. You really have it, you know... the talent ans inspiration. Just a matter of courage to fulll show us it, FULL, in MUSICS. And the worth part too. Like you so much!!! Hope I helped. Hope we can talk about things one day here
I would like to see an acoustic version of Dirt :) I don't really like the song (I don't think its *bad* it's just not really for me. I hope that'll change though because I didn't like Nothing Without You for the first few days I heard it but it grew on me) but I think I more don't like the instruments and it's POPyness/style so I would be very interested to hear it with a greater focus on the vocals
haha is "stormy weather" an (unintentional/intentional) placebo ref? you do ref them a lot, idk if its on purpose. i do that a lot with MCR and Keane without even realising it also i had a mini heart attack when you said plotholes cause one of my songs is called that 😂

I don't get why a pop song shouldn't be taken seriously... I mean there are really inspiring pop songs.

Jessica C i feel exactly the same way, it’s not my thing but i can tell she’s working hard and i’m proud of emma
exactly !! you can not like a song but still think it's a good song. quality and preference are not the same.
4:52 I’m freaking out your voice, style is just amazing and wow impeccable
These IPOAD videos make me sooo motivated!
I honestly look forward to these every week
Me: "I need a quick break from my history internal, i'll watch a quick 10 min youtube video."
Also Me: *Makes sure i'm watching the 40 minute extended cut*
Yes so much love for your IPOAD’s Emma! 👌🏼🙂
Dirt is actually my favorite song I love it a lot and hope you will continue on this path
I like the song, it's fun upbeat bop to dance to, but I still LOVE nothing without you, that song helped me so much and I'm so excited for ur album!
oh my god, i just realised that plot holes is in this video !! i’ve been rewatching your vlogs as a background thing recently, and was not expecting to hear plot holes here - to this day i personally think it’s one of your best songs ever :)
I don’t really listen to all your music, but I think Dirt is really amazing. I actually just recently downloaded it and I’ve been listening to it since.
I love these weekly vlogs, I actually get excited for Monday now
I love Monday’s now because of you Emma
I absolutely love Dirt. It is a song that is needed within the current music culture because some people need a song they can sing along to as a creative outlet when they are dealing with crappy people.
When it comes to Sponsored content the only time I'll refuse to watch is if it's a company I have an issue with for whatever reason.
the demo u wrote sounds SO GOOD !! and man who cares if u can't dance, it seems like u had fun doing it and i personally liked it
I am sooooo excited for this album!!! Cannot wait!
Absolutely love watching these Emma!
Good for you Emma, don’t let the haters get you down. You can’t please everyone, so you’ve got to please yourself.
Omg I can't wait for the Dirt acoustic version😍 please I need this in my life
I love waiting for these every week.
I'm really keen when they come out, keep up the great work!!
People can say what they want about Dirt, but the fact that it has already been played more on Spotify than 'Don't come home' (which is my fav song by you btw) says enough, I think. It's halfway to the amount of plays that 'Nothing Without You' has. Facts don't lie, people like 'Dirt' !
Love the sound of the song you are singing at 5:20 , I'm so excited for more of your music Emma!
WOW the thursday greeting was fabulous
I love seeing your creative process. Go get it girl!!
I love how mellow plot holes sounded you could just Bob along to the beach I love it already, I really want to give you a hug too but I’m also going to save hug. Congratulations on all your success so far you deserve every bit of it you’ve worked your ass off nice one!!

I like your dancing it was awesome
Daniel Hynes I totally agree, although for some reason I think we are among the few 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Emma don't listen to those who doesn't like it. I do. You do. Nothing else really matter.
Anyway the wind blows, nothing really matters to me, to me.......
sweet_creature 7 Well I mean, she can listen to the constructive criticism? That’s the point of it, to tell her what they think she could improve.
CAN'T WAIT FOR YOUR MUSIC! ❤❤❤
I actually really like your new song, Emma! Not too much first, but it really grew on me. Now I can’t stop singing it, lol. And I LOVE the new aesthetic! Don’t let the stupid people get to you
Emma, keep up the great work. We will support you no matter what.
Taylor Swift wrote All Too Well back in the Fearless era, wasn't ready for Speak Now and it ended up on Red.
When I first didn't listen to Dirt, I wasn't very keen but I wanted to put it on my playlist to support you on Spotify. And it's finally grown on me! XD I was singing along to it in my kitchen yesterday. What a 'bop'! (Is that the right term? haha)
I actually love the song& Video🙉🙈
I am surprised and glad that you hear Björk "Post", this is such beautiful music and certainly an interesting influence.
I'm looking forward to the album! Definitely going to buy it when it is out!
You saved me. I was looking for something to watch and you uploaded!
At least you're not a prank youtuber and your music is quite good
Emma, I just want to write a little thank you note. Every time I see you working on music in these vlogs I just get so inspired to create myself. Thank you. I'm still very curious to hear the album and looking forward to see you play in Hamburg in October where I can hopefully tell you this again in person.
lya emma your an absolute inspiration keep being you and a flippin LOVE dirt ;) xx
Watched Dirt, it's pretty good!
11 tracks. Nice 👍🏻
The new song you were demo-ing sounded really nice!
Great to see you doing so well :)
A tip for the rice crispy treats, use less marshmallow. The bigger ones are tough to gauge the amount required.
Emma, wasn't a huge fan of most of your music, still proud of all the stuff you've done and how far you've come since I first subbed.
That being said, I really dig "Dirt". Even the folks I know who are far from Pop fans admitted it wasn't complete trash and was catchy as hell. (Even surprised that a vlogger made decent music)
I really can't wait for the next single and the whole album.
Also, "Generic pop trash", said people who've clearly never listened to pop.
I ffucking love your weekly vlogs 😊 xx
Emma! Sooo good a new song! Waiting for it.
Emma looks so starlike with those sunglasses.
Love you Emma also I LOVE Dirt I listen to it at least once every day xx the bad reviews on Dirt aren’t about you it’s about the song and not everyone will like the genre you like and I like xx 💓💓💓hope you get everything you want in life because you an amazing person xxxx
Oh my god you have matching sweaters with your dad. Goals
I’m guessing it’s an Always ad to end period poverty, it’s such an important topic 💕
I’ve done dance all my life, so yeah maybe you wouldn’t dance as well as me(not saying I’m amazing😂) but you tried and that’s what matters. If you want to dance in your music videos then go dance in them, especially if it’s fun for you. I’m glad that you love what you’re making❤️❤️

i LOVE your song Emma :)
I would pay for an album of your demos. Plot holes sounds sweet 👌
Words of my drama teacher that I will live by forever: “There’s no such thing as bad publicity”
THE MATCHY SWEATERS I'M CRYING
I'd love to hear an acoustic version.
When you said i know who is directing the next video i had this thought "what if felix directs it" and idk why or how but i kinda like that idea
T Hafez lol that's never gonna happen ...r u shipper or what?😂
Qwerty qwerty ik that it wont happen i was just imagining 😂😂😂 and no definitely not a shipper how can anyone ship felix with anyone other than marzia
T Hafez yeah totally agree😂😂
Dirt is my favorite song in the world
I think you made marshmallows with rice crispies rather than a rice crispy treat xD but it does look good!
i was thinking that too! there was a big marshmallow to crispy ratio problem XD
Man I wish I could write music as good as yours.
You mean so much to me ilysm emma💗💗
Emma, Dirt is doing really well in the Ireland Viral top 50 aswell!!!!
Yay it's monday!
YES,YES,YES,YESSSSS
As twisted as this may sound, wallowing in self pity can be cathartic.
The song tho
Daniel Bryan!! * clap clap clapapa* Daniel Bryan! I pooped myself on that news Emma hahah Another week another great to watch Ipoad! Also you're gonna get criticised no matter what you do but you know you're good and so do we! Keep improving Emma!

Emma, does the extended cut contain just new content or does it include just the original from ur main channel???
Rainbow Beam it’s like, the content from the main channel, plus a bit more
Emma Blackery Kk thx ❤️❤️❤️
you know a song is good when you literally say the word "Dirt" and i have to pause the video and go listen to it
Refreshing until I Get An AD.
i was wondering if you have amazon music unlimited and you downloaded the song would it count as a purchase?
I would like to see an acoustic version of Dirt :) I don't really like the song (I don't think its *bad* it's just not really for me. I hope that'll change though because I didn't like Nothing Without You for the first few days I heard it but it grew on me) but I think I more don't like the instruments and it's POPyness/style so I would be very interested to hear it with a greater focus on the vocals
8:35 that's sounds amazing, when are we getting the whole song Emma??

woo, new vlog
I’m not going to lie, I wasn’t a fan of dirt when I first heard it but since then I’ve listened to it so many times and I love it
Someone have a crush on Toby 🤔🤔😝😝😝
haha is "stormy weather" an (unintentional/intentional) placebo ref? you do ref them a lot, idk if its on purpose. i do that a lot with MCR and Keane without even realising it
also i had a mini heart attack when you said plotholes cause one of my songs is called that 😂
Well there will be more Toby time come album 2
I'm totally am doing homework and not watching Emma
I told you the haters don't wake up at midnight they wait till like 6:30 get a nice breakfast then some light hatred and then lunch
Hiiiii yasss
how do you get your song ideas
No Emma you dance in the next video you dance your heart out! I still love dirt and a generic pop song I’d be fed up with by now 😉
4:04 this made me realise I've been inside for like a week oooops
