its crazy how some people will never know this side of her. Like I love being a fan of hers and seeing her grow musically but its a shame for me personally that some people will never know the SZA that first captured all our hearts you know?
I RELATE TO THIS SO HARD. Something so bitterly rewarding in the raw honesty of her older music. Does that make sense? I don't know. Ugh i just love her so much
Same here this was the first song I heard by her when I was in highschool and while I'm happy she's getting more publicity I get annoyed that most people don't know she has even more amazing music under her name than just the Ctrl album. Even then people only consider three of the songs any good while ignoring the rest.
This girl is just amazing, no half-naked-ness, no fake ass persona! Just a beautiful girl with amazing music! This is PURE TALENT. I never heard music like this before and I really like it you can't compare her to anyone!
This is such a beautiful song. Its a spirtitual song which speaks about purity and finding the beauty within yourself and your soul. And she just wants to escape from everyday life and go to a place and a space where everyone shows their light and beauty. Its really stunning and the video is just that, simple, symbolic, peaceful, beautiful and in my represents that place visually and shows wat shes talking about.
I think this song is about finding an escape. If you listen (for some reason a lot of people here can't understand what she's saying, but I can), she says "Summertime, Sadness" at the beginning of the song, and that right there should indicate depression, and I think she's asking for some sort of escape. A happy place. Therefore, that indicates the video. It's like she's in a fairy tail, it's as if in the song she was asking for a getaway, and in the video, she's finally found her new limbo. The song also talks about purity, religion beliefs and disbelief's, and obviously, depression and the yearn to feel happy.

I'm proud to say that when I found her here 10 year's ago I felt this song and knew she was special. Now I'm so proud to see how far she's gone and grown ❤
I love how she's so playful and earthy, to the point of the surreal. The music feels like it borrows from that era of 80s fantasy synth, the sort of ambient music you'd hear in a kid's adventure movie (think Labyrinth or Goonies), but coupled with this fantastically rich bass. Makes for the most wonderful effect. I'm officially a fan.
Lol yeah, see, this is how you know who REALLY listens to her. If they say "Uhhhh...... The Weekend or Broken Clocks are my favourite songs," they likely don't listen to her like that. I love both those songs, but if somebody says ICE MOON or CASTLES or Once Upon a High, then you can say "Ok, you know what you're talking about."
I love Ctrl, but her style here was what drew me to her, very unique. I know she had to make a more commercial album and that’s okay I just hope on her future projects she could go back to this sound. It sounded more authentic and passionate.
She didn't have to make mainstream trash. She sold out, made pleb fans, and doesn't need her witchy, esoteric, and/or higher brain-celled audience anymore.

Still listening to this! I remember seeing SZA at Jhené’s Enter The Void concert in 2013 and she performed this. I was right in the front of the stage and was one of the only people who knew the song. We had our little moment 🥺
@@lovegod1steverythingelse2n47Same here✋🏿🎧💯! She was just on a whole level with this song😍. Sometimes you need to just go back to the oldies of artists😌

This song makes me fucking weak!! The lyrics have always been powerful to me but revisiting it years later just hits different and makes me emotional….God bless
There is no sza like the sza from this era. You are dearly missed. Your new music is still fire but nothing compares to this. No one else has this style. I also see willo got some of her style from you
I liked this Sza wayyy more compared to the mainstream one. I kept telling myself about how uninteresting she was until I heard her older music. Legendary 🥺❤️
I love how innocent and almost childlike, but also creatively beautiful this video is.. the nature and music gives you positive vibes.. it makes you appreciate the world we live in.
When i heard she comes from my state, New Jersey, it gave me an inspiration to keep producing my music. Shes introducing the wierdness and tripyness of the rebellious youth group in NJ that im happily apart of. This woman is amazing, hands down.
man. feel like i just woke up. ive been listening to sza for 4 years. on and off. very fondly. i loved her voice, the cadence of the words, the sad but hopeful melodies. i just really sat back and listened to all this old stuff again and realized it was all about working through trauma. i cant imagine. "im rare, chosen, by who" its crazy that i could listen to something for so long and not realise the meaning behind it.
This song introduced me to SZA (The whole S mix-tape really) and to this day it is my favorite song she has put out. Its just so refreshing and sentimental.
This is...*he continues to be speechless*(kinda lol); more than amazing, this has surpass that state of being simply "amazing" by leaps & bounce; when a connection has been made due too a sound being sincere, & full of range (if you live this type of life) you understand what freedom is; this is an unconstrained sound, not influenced by society, happy, & allowed too shin like it would except nothing less; I love my good decisions!! this is the 1st time I'm hearing this tonight, & I wasn't even going too watch the video (likes, what's wrong with me?!?), & I've listen to this like 11x already!! lol this is a needed sound in music RIGHT NOW!! because music is not music any more, it's just sick, & this can be part of the healing process; definitely looking forward too hearing more from SZA!!
@@ladycrillz I'm good, I got them a long time ago already when they 1st came out. But the option of being able to stream them is more convenient. I'm glad I got them when I did.
Still listening to this in 2020 & beyond. Only the OG Sza fans can relate
Yoooo no way
Yes absolutely
Absolutely! And be blessed, mate.
Same here. Can't get enough
💪🏽
its crazy how some people will never know this side of her. Like I love being a fan of hers and seeing her grow musically but its a shame for me personally that some people will never know the SZA that first captured all our hearts you know?
Breonna Penn I’m a “new” fan and I’m discovering the old music. LoVE HER
I RELATE TO THIS SO HARD. Something so bitterly rewarding in the raw honesty of her older music. Does that make sense? I don't know. Ugh i just love her so much
Breonna Penn YES!!
That’s how it was with Nicki Minaj too. If they weren’t fans since the underground days they won’t truly understand the hype.
I know right...
She must return to this music. It sounds absolutely transcendentally...That's SZA for me...
hope she drops A with like 20 tracks and then leaves music at that.
@@ytyoungrichnhighI think she scrapped A to do ctrl
Let the woman grow🙌🏽
Ikrr
@@ytyoungrichnhigh A is ctrl
this song makes me feel like a spiritually enlightened person that loves being in nature n shit
flower child, beautiful child
Raqraqxox yes!

This song makes me want to go to a forest and just chill for as long as I need to.
frrr

This song makes me think of my daughter growing from a baby girl to a woman.
This is the most beautiful music video I've ever seen.

HRH General Djehuty Well Played Well Played

Young Riah Thanks, fam. I just caught a few minutes of her show, I'm cool...she takes nice pics though.
Good lookin' out.
I feel the same
Shout out to the OG SZA FANS!!
✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
literally
🙄 yall so corny with these comments. Here's your 🍪
after the grammy's I reflected on how it's been 10 years of me listening to her! love to see her win🏆
The way she sings "Go to church if you're scared"
I can tell she meant it in a good way
I don’t think she meant it in a good way
Ernesto she didn’t ppl
i miss this sza
Aurora Lara so do I, although I appreciate the more emotionally open one in CTRL. but her new fans don’t know the real her....
Yup
Same 😪
Same here this was the first song I heard by her when I was in highschool and while I'm happy she's getting more publicity I get annoyed that most people don't know she has even more amazing music under her name than just the Ctrl album. Even then people only consider three of the songs any good while ignoring the rest.
Aurora Lara Absolutely miss this sza😍😍💯
Her earlier albums are the best.
Don’t get me wrong CTRL and SOS are great, but Z just hits different 🥹 It’s so nostalgic and dreamy
This isn't even from Z 💀💀 it's from S
@@Kraniaks yup
S my girl❤
@@Kraniaksshe has album S and Z. I wonder if she has album A anywhere?
@@anabellaaiyanna4253 ctrl is what A would've been
this made me cry a little wanting paradise like this
My Life and The Media it made me tear a lil cause I had a female like this that I lost
Man, sometimes I miss this sound/style from her. Im glad SZA is seeing so much success now
me too but she cant make it in the industry with this sound the general pop wouldn't support this type of music or at least aren't ready to
They did with Kate Bush and Bjork but not a black girl. ☹️
This the Sza that captured me
This is the only one I know, this one and Child’s Play. Haven’t followed her career at all but those two still fye to me
This was my introduction to SZA on release day… Been a fan ever since. It’s crazy to see how far she has come…
WHOs VIBING TO THIS IN 2020??
Daily💯
In 2021 ✌🏽
2024
One of her hardest songs
This girl is just amazing, no half-naked-ness, no fake ass persona! Just a beautiful girl with amazing music! This is PURE TALENT. I never heard music like this before and I really like it you can't compare her to anyone!
Check out Genesis by Grimes
still ugs tho.
yep.
I couldn't have said it better.
Exactly, and I love how doesn't have a stylist of any kind. She dresses and makes up herself. You know she's real.
This side of her .. I fell in love with … A Glitter Trap combustion of alternative R&B ✨🖤 beautiful!
'Glitter trap' 💙💙💙✨✨✨
This is such a beautiful song. Its a spirtitual song which speaks about purity and finding the beauty within yourself and your soul. And she just wants to escape from everyday life and go to a place and a space where everyone shows their light and beauty. Its really stunning and the video is just that, simple, symbolic, peaceful, beautiful and in my represents that place visually and shows wat shes talking about.
she should make more music like this and actually release it on more platforms 😭
I think this song is about finding an escape.
If you listen (for some reason a lot of people here can't understand what she's saying, but I can), she says "Summertime, Sadness" at the beginning of the song, and that right there should indicate depression, and I think she's asking for some sort of escape.

I am absolutely in love with this. The production and lyrics to this is extremely radiant to me.
Me too.

I dare the new fans to listen to her old stuff . Shes been the beeznees for a long time shes just now getting the attention she deserved . 🌻
Yes I'm like I been here since day one just about lol ...

Tbh I'm new to her and I love her old music more than her new. Nothing but being a side hoe and sleeping around and its like whaat
I cannot believe I am still listening to a SZA even this year. I miss this sound from her.
2:06 omg so cute 😭💕💕
Her jumping around is so cute wtf
I'm proud to say that when I found her here 10 year's ago I felt this song and knew she was special. Now I'm so proud to see how far she's gone and grown ❤

She really spoke her real in this music
That moment when you wanna be a tree

Being a new fan of her doesn't mean to only listen to ctrl 🤦🏽♀️

I’m still doing it now at the end of 2023 ❤

This song makes me fucking weak!! The lyrics have always been powerful to me but revisiting it years later just hits different and makes me emotional….God bless
i really do miss the glitter trap era
me fucking too.
Her neo-soul era from Z >>>
There is no sza like the sza from this era. You are dearly missed. Your new music is still fire but nothing compares to this. No one else has this style. I also see willo got some of her style from you
Out in the woods, under the moon with no lights near just enough to see the stars while this playing this its like it takes you to another galaxy!
I miss this SZA so much 😭
Will always be in my top 10 song from Sza. Miss this side of her ✨🥰
I love love love this song so much. SZA makes such good music.
i was a sza fan during this era but she really came into herself for ctrl. ctrl and sos are superior
Something about dark and depressive Sza though that sounds so authentic.Personally a fan of her pre ctrl era but yes artists have to evolve.
My favorite era of her music
The Sza that I fell in love with🥺
First song i heard back in 2013 & fell in love since
This was the first sza song I heard back in 2014 and it’s what made me love her ✨
This song makes me want to eat a bunch of shrooms and chill in the woods for some reason.
😂😂😂
Aww, Damn! You too? It was my first thought about this vid and sound.
I'm like 95% sure this song was inspired by psychedelics...
You should. Also check out Ice Moon Revisited ft. Ab Soul... That'll really make you wanna do drugs
Me too:)
The glitter trap days ✨
Feel like im floating whenever i listen to this song
Same
Out of all the songs Sza has made this still my favorite 💐 🌈 🍬🍬💜 this song goes so hard on the speakers
Wha wha wha one hunnit
I liked this Sza wayyy more compared to the mainstream one. I kept telling myself about how uninteresting she was until I heard her older music. Legendary 🥺❤️
This song raised me ❤
Still listening this is my go to song when I’m feeling down summer time sadness 😭🧿🤍
i love watching sza grow she has most def found her sound
She is stunningly beautiful. I'm just slightly obsessed with this song and her.
I swear it's healing. I always come back to this 💖🌿
The memories this brings 😩
i miss old sza
Forever wishing this was on Spotify.....
We’ll never see or hear from this Sza again🤦🏾♀️
I love how innocent and almost childlike, but also creatively beautiful this video is.. the nature and music gives you positive vibes.. it makes you appreciate the world we live in.

Sza from six years ago is a totally different artist in 2020 no more alternative vibes
I hope she keeps her style!! I LOVEEEEEEEEEEE this chick's music!
It’s 2020 and I’m still and this makes me emotional 🥺❤️
SZA is mother nature from the ice moon . #mindblown
My favourite female artists right now, real talk
2024 i am still here… i like this SZA
Just went to a SZA concert yesterday and some part of me was hoping she’d play this for her OG fans 💔
ugh. sza finally getting the love she deserve nd everyone’s comin across this song
she has the most chill music ✨
I think I wanna go there 💫
man. feel like i just woke up. ive been listening to sza for 4 years. on and off. very fondly. i loved her voice, the cadence of the words, the sad but hopeful melodies. i just really sat back and listened to all this old stuff again and realized it was all about working through trauma. i cant imagine.
