I feel like the combination of his voice backed by the girls makes it even more androgynous. Their voices mix so well that they almost sound like the same person.

it makes you feel all warm inside, yet at the same time it releases a feeling of coldness and hatred thats hard to recognize, because the warmth covers the cold
I think this song is about gifted children, because gifted children can be smart, but typically aren't wise and often do things their own way or no way. If you where a gifted kid you know what i'm talking about. (btw this song is a bop) Edit) for all of you people in the replies saying you have now have mental issues from being a gifted in school, I get it and I get you.
i feel like we are smart and stuff but because of all the pressure we faced from a young age most of us ended up developing mental illnesses and unhealthy coping mechanisms to deal with the stress of being the "smart kids"
Happened to me as well. Elementary schools try to hype you up and deem you gifted but once you falter in middle school it's all over. The pressure is 10x worse than before and you have no going back. Anyway, I'm a freshman in highschool now after being 'the gifted kid' for years in Elementary School. Things are ever worse cause adhd really do be like this :']

Liam Warren because songs that are more popular tend to draw more attention from other people than just the fans, which makes it more likely for people who dislike the songs to stumble upon them and start posting negative comments.
*A spectacular example of lyrical entertainment, only made by people born with the quintessence of originality. This absolutely wonderful, and I don't think it could be described with any other word besides perfection.*
2:30 this note is so beautiful oh my god- And then the gradual inclusion of the trumpets, the steady drumbeat, and the occasional piano notes scattered in the background.
Man this song hits different. I've been a pretty sheltered kid so I feel way behind my peers in terms of understanding basic tasks, leaves me feeling kind of sad but at the same time I would get hostile whenever someone tried to help. Guess its time to figure shit out.
@@GunterDhot Not fully, but I've improved. I listen now for one, Ego's been thoroughly thrashed and while it's not fully away I realize that actually accepting the help from others is the best way forward. Learned a few things, worked on myself more, I'm overall better. Course I'm not done yet, probably won't be ever, but I feel I'm on a better track than before.
god that trumpet solo paired with the guitar at the beginning sounds so angelic like an old friend teasing you about something you're actually sensitive about, like a sunset on the beach with your favorite person, like bitter-bittersweet memories of lost loves
This song just gives me such power and energy, it shows me that sometimes you need to find wisdom from somewhere that isn’t yourself. Nothing is able to be conquered alone, and help should not be looked down upon :)
When you were a depressed A student in middle school when nothing mattered and your life comes crashing down in high school so now you’re a depressed B student with nobody to blame but yourself.
This song is what it feels like realizing the difference between being smart/wise and being good at school… realizing you were never really smart, just good at solving math problems.
i feel like mother mother just makes albums to make more songs, and they are completely random. like listen to Body and then listen to this, it's different.
The albums don't always maintain the same vibe or idea lmao, listen to thank you happy birthday by cage the elephant for example. Sometimes they're just really random and I love it. This album though, I'd say it's mostly about struggles with self image and life. I don't know though, it could be completely random. I love this album though, it's my favorite by them.
just had a breakdown with this song on in the background and briefly but genuinely considered ripping my face off 😀👍 and that’s what you missed on glee
Yeah I listened to this and felt a lot but I started drawing without paying much attention and when it was over it was the best drawing I had ever made and it looked like how I felt so drawing may work for you too but it can really capture feels
This is kind of an old comment, 3 years ago but still, i want to say this!! :/ Yes, this is my favourite album from them too, but The Sticks and Touch Up are REALLY good too

Sometimes i listen to this song while doing my homework and almost every time end up in mental tears because I just can't do the fucking assignment. God, my head hurts I want to thank my dear parents for pressuring me to study something I don't like Life is great 👍
I was confused the first time I heard this, I did not know the title and thought they were singing "wis-gum wis-gum" I thought it was about some gum or something... whoops
I love this song so much , the voice is so genderkess and calming it’s so amzing and wonder , every time I listen to this I cry and sing it’s so amaizng
I actually relate to this a lot not because im a gifted kid but because I was incredibly lazy during my younger years, and I missed out on some really good advice that could have helped me now but cant because it never happened. I basically had to 'reteach myself' everything during highschool to make up for the years I didint take school seriously, and I wish I could have gone back in time to learn from the ground up.
its ok! you can like what ever songs you like just cause this is different from there new stuff doesn't mean "oh there sell outs" its just different :)
I find this song is too underrated I tried finding a 1 hour version but couldn’t yet it’s so good!!! Btw people out there you’re doing great keep up the good work 😊
I was in the waiting room for my first interview so I pulled out my phone and put this song on and put the volume all the way up and then the the manager looked at me and said this was one of his favorites so we started to talk about our favorites by mother mother I ended up getting the job 😂😂

Wisdom, wisdom Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Wisdom, wisdom…
the meaning of this song kinda changes depending on how i feel. for example: if i'm feeling stupid i'd be ask myself "where can i get some wisdom". but on the other hand, if someone like a parent is talking to me about my classes i'd say it in a mocking tone, basically calling them stupid
Ok but what if wisdom in this means happiness. And fire symbolizes light in the darkness, while darkness is sadness. And the line "two sticks and stones. Still don't have fire." Is meant as using medication/other people's techniques to be happy, and failing.
The song really does prove itself by rhyming “fire” with “fire”
me writing poetry for english:
o my heart does the same thing
*GSPOT ROCKS THE GSPOT*
Lyrical genius
How wise
I love his voice so much because it sounds neither female or male and it makes so much sense to me
i know right?! i really want to have that type of voice.
I feel like the combination of his voice backed by the girls makes it even more androgynous. Their voices mix so well that they almost sound like the same person.
deadass he got that good ol nonbinary sound
It confuses me immensely but it’s soothing :)
@@ywybeet5535 EXactly
*that moment when you have smarts but not common sense so you don't have any wisdom,even though you have been told how to do a procedure=This song*

I look forward to seeing mother mother rise in popularity and get the credit they deserve.
troublecliff 4 years into the future, I think they are ^^
@Hannah Emad for real BUT i really want them to be more popular bc they deserve it :(
Not a big fan of tik tok but it did introduce me to these guys so that’s nice
Idk how I found them with a jazz singer.
Guess what
the trumpet shit at the start makes me feel an emotion that doesn't exist but it's a really nice emotion
@@uwuppa lol
for me it feels like mocking, but instead of someone else mocking you, it's yourself
It feels like sad for me
it makes you feel all warm inside, yet at the same time it releases a feeling of coldness and hatred thats hard to recognize, because the warmth covers the cold
Ikr
this song is an adhd anthem
Omg I relate-
i relate too much
I’m honoured
It's really more aimed at uh, naive people but I guess
Eclipse. exe it’s just that the experience here is just something that a lot of ppl with adhd can relate to. Including me
I think this song is about gifted children, because gifted children can be smart, but typically aren't wise and often do things their own way or no way.
If you where a gifted kid you know what i'm talking about. (btw this song is a bop)
Edit)
for all of you people in the replies saying you have now have mental issues from being a gifted in school,
I get it and I get you.
Banana Gremlin Keep your head up. I promise things will get better.💕 Wisdom? Where can ya get some? I guess in the comments of this song lol.
I get you
@Banana Gremlin ok but,, mood

Stassy Kitsune thank you so much for posting the lyrics so I can read along while I listen to their songs
Stassy Kitsune oh, tips not tits, i knew i was off
buy a fidget spinner, mother mother.
Stassy Kitsune The real MVP
how is it that every comment on every mother mother song is giving them praise, yet the most populare songs suffer larger percentages of complaints?
Liam Warren because most pop songs suck
Liam Warren Because popular music is made with popularity in mind, while this is made with creativity and love of the craft.
Liam Warren
Mostly because the music you hear on the radio isn't there by popular demand.
Liam Warren because songs that are more popular tend to draw more attention from other people than just the fans, which makes it more likely for people who dislike the songs to stumble upon them and start posting negative comments.
I think people should give todays music more credit. I mean, not all of its bad. Imagine Dragons is good. And so is Maroon 5. Just gotta look for it.
Does anyone else get huge Autumn vibes from this album?
Alien Boy in Blue Yes!! 🍁🍂
Yep, a lonely one
I got ratatouille vibes lmao
Ya especially this song
holy shit i just read this comment while adding this song to my autumn playlist!!
1:50 is my fav little jazzy tune it hits sooo different
*A spectacular example of lyrical entertainment, only made by people born with the quintessence of originality. This absolutely wonderful, and I don't think it could be described with any other word besides perfection.*
is absolutely*
That's a pretty _bold_ thing to say
Thin Mint I see that voltron reference my gud sir
@@sage_n_fearns KICK
Another word you could use to describe this song is "wisdom."
2:30 this note is so beautiful oh my god-
And then the gradual inclusion of the trumpets, the steady drumbeat, and the occasional piano notes scattered in the background.
Man this song hits different. I've been a pretty sheltered kid so I feel way behind my peers in terms of understanding basic tasks, leaves me feeling kind of sad but at the same time I would get hostile whenever someone tried to help. Guess its time to figure shit out.
Did you end up figuring shit out?
two years late but I feel exactly like this, it's like I want to change but also do not want to until I am living on my own and idk why

This has got to be one of my all time favorites by them :'D
Agreed
i keep thinking this with every single one of their songs
arduous Popsicle
I want to like but it’s on 111 I can’t do this
Ghosting is pretty good...
Definitely
god that trumpet solo paired with the guitar at the beginning sounds so angelic
like an old friend teasing you about something you're actually sensitive about, like a sunset on the beach with your favorite person, like bitter-bittersweet memories of lost loves
Oh god the beginning reminds me of the movie Up holy shit the memories
Omfg same
Nothing scratches my brain quite like mother mother
This song just gives me such power and energy, it shows me that sometimes you need to find wisdom from somewhere that isn’t yourself. Nothing is able to be conquered alone, and help should not be looked down upon :)
This is me in school like " WISDOM, WISDOM, WHERE CAN I GET SOME???"
Underated comment!
depends on where you're looking m8
@Banana Gremlin you talking about him or me?
So you going around checking to find wisdom teeth or this song is not about teeth
Mother mother finally getting the recognition they deserve 😌
*one of my favorite songs i ever heared*
This song gives me the game giddy feeling when I’m in love and it makes me feel so happy and flustered
ME TOO !!!!!!!! its so gooddd
This is a song that could play in moominvalley.
IT TOTALLY COULD

absolutely not lmfao

Even after 15 years this band is still my favorite

Damn. I dunno any 2025 listeners 😅
I don't have any comparisons to draw between characters or traumas i just think this song is very pretty :^)
I love this song so much I can't even put it into words
This song is a very lovely colour of bluey purple like a autumn sunset and its just so calming
Underrated, I love this song so much
I was confused the first time I heard this, I did not know the title and thought they were singing "wis-gum wis-gum" I thought it was about some gum or something... whoops

This song is so good😍
this song in your car in the middle of the night, yes. 😩👊‼️
one of my favorites uugh that chorus is just too good and bouncy

Is this really beautiful song...
This is gonna sound weird but the first verse reminds me of the story telling song in Tinkerbell and The Lost Treasure!!
