That boys is a typical woman who can't let you have anything without it being about her. I'm not just saying this, but his version is far better. What makes me sad is she will get some clout for stealing he's shit just claiming it's from a woman's perspective. Write your own shit and see if anyone listens to you off your own graft.
even without checking the comments i knew something wasn’t adding up😭💀 the song never mentions broken promises or trust and it’s the guy showing his vulnerability, he’s literally the victim here lmao
@@Random_guyy... sad reality. my gf of 9 months and who had a crush on me for more than 1.5 years waited for 2 months cheated on me for more than a month. and then her new bf and her say its my fault. crazy how the world works
she gets creative and makes hypothetical stories about hypothetical female characters in thia channel and she might not known that the story about cheating . y'all: 🗡😡
My only issue is that the actual song doesn't seem to have anything to do with him breaking promises or being a bad partner so this doesn't seem to be a "from her perspective" song so much as it is "make the guy look bad" Edit: so apparently he wrote this song about a time with his ex-girlfriend where he felt vulnerable, most likely near the end of their relationship... So yeah the female perspective really isn't adding up
It’s should have been “I’m so sorry to let you down harshly I could have given you some sympathy I didn’t think that you’d be so lonely So I didn’t let you slowly let you down, down let you down down let you down. I’m so sorry I didn’t show more sympathy, I should’ve let you down more slowly”
To be honest, I hate it from her perspective because it takes a sad story of a guy who is losing his lover and making the guy sound like a bad guy and that annoys me to be honest
Why must we make the GUY the bad guy? He did nothing wrong. Actually, his lover, the one she's making the song point of view from, CHEATED ON HIM. This guy's song honestly helped me so much. Why must we paint him as the bad guy when his lover is in the wrong? I sense sexism here. Edit: I am a woman. I do not date because I think people deserve better than me. And honestly? People blaming the man is barely any different than saying, "What else can you expect from women?" You really aren't any better than this girl, who literally just painted the VICTIM as the villian. I sincerely apologize to those that I may have offended, but I stand by my statement.
Ma'am this is Wendy's. You need therapy. That's just a lyrical video and there can be 100 renditions on the same tune. Doesn't matter. Nobody is bad guy. Just take it as a song.
@@Unknown-fj4wr i am not trying to fight but have you read the pin comment? she said it was a creative expression tbh i didnt know the backstory of this song until yall, and i had been a fan of this song for years- so maybe she didnt know it too.
@@itssakura Well, maybe she could have said that the song was going to be different and not say it was from her perspective. Because, as I said, the man is the victim here. And when she said those words it sounds like it was the guys fault when it was her fault.
Accountability and women are like oil and water. Accountability is female Kryptonite. It doesn't matter how great a guy is the woman will always put the blame on him even if it's just to say that he was boring
maybe she got cheated on so she's singing changed it to fit her but she doesn't want to directly say she's been cheated on because that means she picked a terrible man to be her partner
Bro I thought she was actually gonna sing from the girl's perspective but she just made the guy look like a bad person 👍 Why do my most random comments always blow up
Seems like she can't think of a scenario where something bad/sad happens when it's neither person's fault to write a lyrics about from her perspective to keep the with the theme of the song and instead made some shit up, she HAS to blame the other person. Idk if she's just talentless or toxic.
Yes but this could be the perspective of an alternative relationship where the roles are reversed, maybe they didn’t cheat but it’s just not working out? I mean, this is a cover, they’re not saying the guy did this or that, just changing the lyrics to match their au. Sorry if this comment isn’t make sense lol.
@NuclearBoy lots of guys do the same exact thing... "all girls these days are cheating gold diggers, only flowers a man gets are at his funeral, blah blah" "They" always do this, "they" always do that... Dayum could you find a larger brush to paint with?
I feel like this sort of demonstrates a lack of understanding of the source material. It's not about a man begging a woman to stay with him after he wronged her, rather the song is about Alec watching helplessly as his relationship grows more and more distant, and hoping for a clean and painless end to it. Here's what the writer had to say about the song: "In the chorus I am pleading with her… If you’re gunna leave… please let me down slowly. I’m a fragile soul (lol jk….but for real tho…i am kinda…) and at this time I really felt powerless. I couldn’t ask her to stay (because that would be her choice of course..) but I felt that I needed to ask for her sympathy and that she let me down as gently as she possibly could"
Yea in my opinion it's definitely cringe and kinda shits on the source material and yea everyone's free to interpret it in their own way it just seems a bit disrespectful especially cause it seems like Alec Benjamin puts his heart into his songs
@@ADthehawk yeah but the claims she makes in this cover make no sense in the context of the original song LMAO I don’t see anything in the original song that proves he did anything wrong. The relationship is just dying, which is a normal thing
I agree that this song is not good for several reasons, but men have done that too. With Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor swift I’ve seen it most. Stop acting like women are the only ones who do it and don’t bring feminism into this, because it has nothing to do with it
@@-nary-zy5jt What you’re doing is generalising feminists. Also how go you know she is a feminist? And even if she were a feminist, this song has nothing to do with feminism
@@christinaromanov3612 ahh "generalizing"? Tell me third wave feminists are not like this? Just tell me?, I mean I'm a feminist too but to a point where it's about equal worth and rights not where they demand getting a privelage more than men everywhere.
@@serenaxiao3415 ur right, 'from her perspective' literally means that 'WHAT IF' the guy had cheated instead and she made the song instead of the guy. After going through and reading the comments I realized how dense everyone is, trying to pin the blame on others. People need to learn and understand English a bit more, even a bit of common sense would help.
What's sad.. really sad.. is the original is about a Man who knows he's becoming less than he used to be. Worse than when they started and he only hopes that if she does leave, that she leaves him with mercy. He knows he's unworthy. Mercy meaning he may not deserve it but he hopes. "A little sympathy", he says. Yet your female perspective makes him out to be this person who deliberately hurt you and owes You. Saying "You let me down" is such a cut to the neck. He was already sad and falling apart, couldn't you stay and help him out? Point out that he's crumbling and needs to be helped? Make a version where she lends him a hand?? Pulls him from that depression???
Welcome to 2022, people don't look at subtext or context.. a man made that song and if you only read the title, you think it's negative towards the woman.. so a woman had to do a version bashing the guy even tho the original song was him bashing himself.. Needless attacks against men just because they are men, no sympathy, no reason, no questions.. just attacking.. thats where we are now.
@@yossyasmey8245 Not you totally ignoring what we said just to try to bash us because we are men with an opinion.. literally what the one minute video is doing too.. good job
true man if you're making a cover make it like that, in this cover it feels like alec getting blamed for everything and feels like she made him the real culprit
Beautiful voice, and beautiful lyrics, but I’m pretty sure this song was supposed to be about the boy being in pain. Men can be in pain from relationships too, again I’m sorry if I misinterpreted your lyrics.
@@Funilesh Well, they are saying she took a more neutral perspective and turned it so that the og pov is seen as the bad guy. The orginal song never specified anything about doing anything wrong. Just that their relationship got cold. But this one seems to put the blame entirely on the og pov which is unfair since this was supposed to be a gradual neutral thing. The relationship just wasnt working not that there were actual issues in it
This could've been a really cool idea where both partners understand that they are falling out of love and there is nothing they can do about it, but you had to completely misunderstanding a complex situation.
maybe she got cheated on so she's singing changed it to fit her but she doesn't want to directly say she's been cheated on because that means she picked a terrible man to be her partner
@@naylisyazwina6836 I mean yeah I guess. But she has freezed the title to imply that this is a sequel to the original song just from a different point of view. In this version she completely misrepresents the original song. That was my point
That's why mens are afraid of telling their stories. And that's why mens are more suicidal. Womens are mentally weak, but they have a good friends to tell their stories. And mens are mentally strong, but they don't have many friends to tell their stories.
@Raven_puff. yea no shit you idiot, clearly your to brain dead to see what we were talking about so why even bother to try to fit in when your just a useless feminist that nobody likes
Yeah as a girl wtf, the song is about him getting cheated on and she's like "it's too late for earn the trust that you owe me" She's literally ruining the song I'm sorry
•Both of them are being slightly toxic to each other. •Causing both of them to be sad about it. •But they won't share their worries? This has the same energy as: "If two mind readers are reading eachother's minds, whose mind are they reading?"
There's a reason why a brokenhearted man is losing his lover.. and She's explaining that in this version!! there's a reason why he's losing her ...! Very beautiful and heart caching when you imagine the both Senario together!! he's grieving his lose and she's remembering all the reasons he gave her for she has to leave him and lose trust in him ...! meanwhile they both love each other...💔
@@lindabusan4415 dunno, it sounded very negative from the singer perspective in this one. I believe the Featured version was More accurate describing the perception of the female
Lol wtf 💀 she's just singing a song from another person's perspective of course it's gonna be on their side. Example somebody that I used to know. Y'all are so laughable these days
Exactly like I didn't mean to make you upset I just don't love you anymore but she made it out to be "oh yeah you broke promises you did all this stuff and you expect me to feel bad for you" when that's not what the songs about
Oh yes, now i got the point from her song. Thank you. Is that mean, this girl is trying to make his gf more evil looking by playing victim? Cuz u see everyone are triggered by her song, and now i made up my mind by reading your comment. 😂😂😂
Is that really what happened I literally thought this song was about knowing you're going to break up but not wanting the other person to be cruel just because they don't have feelings anymore
Now I'm even more upset with this version cuz like before I thought she Twisted it until he did something wrong when she just didn't love him anymore but now it's she cheated and she's trying to twist it around back on him the hell
A song about a completely depressed guy at his lowest point hoping to get at least some help by that other person. And you make it seem as if he was the person destroying the relationship. The protagonist was literally just begging for some help and being let down slowly (as easily noticible in the title and text). Why not a version about her doing what he begged her for? He wasn't being an asshole as shown in this version but a very very depressed person. People who've been there can relate.
My thoughts exactly. I do find it rather annoying when people make their own interpretations of music/poems while completely disregarding the author's true intentions.
@@2scent Holy shit you are delusional. I never stated that? Wtf are you interpreting here? The song is literally about a depressed person begging for a little help in hopes the other person doesn't let him fall... That this goes for both genders is obvious. You are so unbelievable thinking that I stated what you are blaming me for. She made a version that has NOTHING to do with the actual song. It is a new interpretation... Not the perspective of the female. Because the protagonist is not asking something selfish or to "fulfill his ego" as you say. He is just begging and hoping she doesn't throw him away too harsh as he is in a very hard situation. You clearly never experienced anything similar. Also you absolutely misunderstood the original song "let me down slowly". Read the lyrics then talk.
Shouldn’t the lyrics be “Could you understand I am really sorry” “I didn’t want this to be a sad story” “I never meant for you to be so lonely” “Broken promises is all I’ve shown you It’s too late to earn the trust I owe you” “I let you down, down down, let you down down,” So it can be from her perspective (Btw context of this song is that Alec Benjamin got cheated on by his gf so he wrote this song)
This song written in her point of view: _Could you understand I need some variety,_ _the same taste and smell, is begnin' to get me,_ _While you never wanted me to be lonely,_ _but Jerome and his football team keeps me busy,_ _oooh... keeps me so busy,_ _I'm the queen of the streets, don' tie me down, down, tie me down._
Not always women are right many people discriminate men from women and think women are always right. I am not saying men are always right but you don't have to always oppose something without knowing the entire thing.
"You don't even know me." To be fair, who does? A lot of girls can be as mercurial as the tides. Who they are and what they want can change dramatically in a single season.
Dude why take it so literal. She’s not even saying that was what happened. She makes different sides of the story. Why take it to this? This is what she likes doing, making songs different. Men do this with female artists too. It’s a thing. Why get so insulted by it when she didn’t see it like that at all. I don’t understand how she even implied that she was being like that. She even commented saying how she was sorry people felt that way, she didn’t mean it like that, etc.
Actully Alec wrote this song about his girlfriend who cheated on him, so this would be a more realistic lyrics from her perspective (ik it's not great but it's just an example or idea) *Could you understand That I felt so lonely Cause' days without me Is all that you've shown me While I never wanted you to be lonely I got bored at home, can't you understand me? Let me down down...*
@@serenaxiao3415 bro stop talking everywhere kid. You do know what perspective means right? 1 story 2 perspective, 1 relationship 2 perspectives. The girls perspective of the breakup. Stop making men look bad.
@@serenaxiao3415 I would say so, but I was straight dated two abusive guys. So I tried dating a girl(despite my family’s ridicule and judgement the entire time) and she cheated on me after 6 years. So now I just don’t care and I’m a “tomboy b!tch”🙃 even my family said everything was my fault.
See how the "guy" never blamed? He just asked if you have to go, then dont be an ass about it. Then there is the girl blaming the guy... I dont think it is fair
Alec Benjamin songs helped me through tough times, and this one, as beautiful your voice is, is one of those that should have stayed in one perspective. No hate tho. **hugs**
Although it wasn't a bad song, "from her perspective" always paints the guy in a negative light. Notice it is rarely the case when flipped. This is manipulation at its finest.

I feel like this sort of demonstrates a lack of understanding of the source material. It's not about a man begging a woman to stay with him after he wronged her, rather the song is about Alec watching helplessly as his relationship grows more and more distant, and hoping for a clean and painless end to it. Here's what the writer had to say about the song:
"In the chorus I am pleading with her… If you’re gunna leave… please let me down slowly. I’m a fragile soul (lol jk….but for real tho…i am kinda…) and at this time I really felt powerless. I couldn’t ask her to stay (because that would be her choice of course..) but I felt that I needed to ask for her sympathy and that she let me down as gently as she possibly could"
Yea in my opinion it's definitely cringe and kinda shits on the source material and yea everyone's free to interpret it in their own way it just seems a bit disrespectful especially cause it seems like Alec Benjamin puts his heart into his songs
Yessss
When a relationship goes sour, both sides usually have their grievances. That's normal.
@@ADthehawk yeah its normal.
but like.....
whose the side thats complaining rn?
@@ADthehawk yeah but the claims she makes in this cover make no sense in the context of the original song LMAO
I don’t see anything in the original song that proves he did anything wrong. The relationship is just dying, which is a normal thing
she took " Its always men fault "to another level
We should start a riot to take the video down

Her perspective seems like she was the one to break him first💔
Exactly
She was
It was very much a one sided deal, her perspective is probably on the hub 😂
When feminists can't hate men enough They'll turn their heartbreak song into mansplaning.
I agree that this song is not good for several reasons, but men have done that too. With Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor swift I’ve seen it most. Stop acting like women are the only ones who do it and don’t bring feminism into this, because it has nothing to do with it
@@christinaromanov3612 well i never said that men don't break hearts, but the way how feminist just think they are always right is what I'm saying.
@@christinaromanov3612 lol and how did you come to the conclusion that i think women always do that??
@@-nary-zy5jt What you’re doing is generalising feminists. Also how go you know she is a feminist? And even if she were a feminist, this song has nothing to do with feminism
@@christinaromanov3612 ahh "generalizing"? Tell me third wave feminists are not like this? Just tell me?, I mean I'm a feminist too but to a point where it's about equal worth and rights not where they demand getting a privelage more than men everywhere.
You did my poor Alec dirty, her perspective would be her saying how she let him down… He is the victim in this hahaha
So who do you think is the victim though.

It could be a version where a male cheats... Why does everyone laugh and say what do you expect from women...
@@serenaxiao3415 ur right, 'from her perspective' literally means that 'WHAT IF' the guy had cheated instead and she made the song instead of the guy. After going through and reading the comments I realized how dense everyone is, trying to pin the blame on others. People need to learn and understand English a bit more, even a bit of common sense would help.
Your voice is so good!
What's sad.. really sad.. is the original is about a Man who knows he's becoming less than he used to be. Worse than when they started and he only hopes that if she does leave, that she leaves him with mercy. He knows he's unworthy. Mercy meaning he may not deserve it but he hopes. "A little sympathy", he says. Yet your female perspective makes him out to be this person who deliberately hurt you and owes You. Saying "You let me down" is such a cut to the neck. He was already sad and falling apart, couldn't you stay and help him out? Point out that he's crumbling and needs to be helped? Make a version where she lends him a hand?? Pulls him from that depression???
Welcome to 2022, people don't look at subtext or context.. a man made that song and if you only read the title, you think it's negative towards the woman.. so a woman had to do a version bashing the guy even tho the original song was him bashing himself.. Needless attacks against men just because they are men, no sympathy, no reason, no questions.. just attacking.. thats where we are now.
Not y’all getting mad over a one minute video 🤡

true man if you're making a cover make it like that, in this cover it feels like alec getting blamed for everything and feels like she made him the real culprit
People when the male is the victim:
Typical. Girls always have to make ANYTHING about themselves lol.
her: what if this song is from her prespective?
me: so lemme tell u a whole story abt why alec benjamin made the song-

It has nothing to do with his life. She just made a song from another person's perspective

Wow! This amazing! This hits hard....Thanks for doing this from her perspective.deep and emotional! Xxx
Beautiful voice, and beautiful lyrics, but I’m pretty sure this song was supposed to be about the boy being in pain. Men can be in pain from relationships too, again I’m sorry if I misinterpreted your lyrics.
I 100%agree with you, this version turns a sad song of a guy feeling pain from losing a lover and makes him seem like a bad guy
@@calvinchily709 Well that the whole premise isn't it? No one's claiming her versis better than the original
@@Funilesh
Well, they are saying she took a more neutral perspective and turned it so that the og pov is seen as the bad guy. The orginal song never specified anything about doing anything wrong. Just that their relationship got cold. But this one seems to put the blame entirely on the og pov which is unfair since this was supposed to be a gradual neutral thing. The relationship just wasnt working not that there were actual issues in it
@@seraphywang4638
Probably a misunderstanding from the girls side that led the man to beg her to stay
I thought the song is about a guy who lost his lover from suicide.... am I misinterpreting it?!?!?
So her perspective was ok to cheat 😂
😂
nahh he wouldn’t do that to someone plus his gf cheated on him 💀
Absolutely amazing bro... Ur a good singer!👍❤️
This could've been a really cool idea where both partners understand that they are falling out of love and there is nothing they can do about it, but you had to completely misunderstanding a complex situation.
maybe she got cheated on so she's singing changed it to fit her but she doesn't want to directly say she's been cheated on because that means she picked a terrible man to be her partner
@@naylisyazwina6836 I mean yeah I guess. But she has freezed the title to imply that this is a sequel to the original song just from a different point of view. In this version she completely misrepresents the original song. That was my point

•Both of them are being slightly toxic to each other.
•Causing both of them to be sad about it.
•But they won't share their worries?

Shouldn't the her perspective of this song be something like: I am so sorry to let you down slowly
I am sorry to make you feel so
lonely
Exactly like I didn't mean to make you upset I just don't love you anymore but she made it out to be "oh yeah you broke promises you did all this stuff and you expect me to feel bad for you" when that's not what the songs about
It would require her to show the mythical female empathy toward a man and we cant have it.

Is that really what happened I literally thought this song was about knowing you're going to break up but not wanting the other person to be cruel just because they don't have feelings anymore
Now I'm even more upset with this version cuz like before I thought she Twisted it until he did something wrong when she just didn't love him anymore but now it's she cheated and she's trying to twist it around back on him the hell
Nice voice to hear 😊
A song about a completely depressed guy at his lowest point hoping to get at least some help by that other person.
And you make it seem as if he was the person destroying the relationship. The protagonist was literally just begging for some help and being let down slowly (as easily noticible in the title and text).
Why not a version about her doing what he begged her for? He wasn't being an asshole as shown in this version but a very very depressed person. People who've been there can relate.
My thoughts exactly. I do find it rather annoying when people make their own interpretations of music/poems while completely disregarding the author's true intentions.
Yess 😭
@@2scent say this to Tylor swift....
@@2scent Holy shit you are delusional. I never stated that? Wtf are you interpreting here?
The song is literally about a depressed person begging for a little help in hopes the other person doesn't let him fall...
That this goes for both genders is obvious. You are so unbelievable thinking that I stated what you are blaming me for.
She made a version that has NOTHING to do with the actual song. It is a new interpretation... Not the perspective of the female. Because the protagonist is not asking something selfish or to "fulfill his ego" as you say. He is just begging and hoping she doesn't throw him away too harsh as he is in a very hard situation.
You clearly never experienced anything similar. Also you absolutely misunderstood the original song "let me down slowly". Read the lyrics then talk.
damn your so stupid, read the top comment before writing ✍️
When woman is about to turn a song into a debate
Debate, in form of song 😂
Shouldn’t the lyrics be
“Could you understand I am really sorry”
“I didn’t want this to be a sad story”
“I never meant for you to be so lonely”
“Broken promises is all I’ve shown you
It’s too late to earn the trust I owe you”
“I let you down, down down, let you down down,”
So it can be from her perspective
(Btw context of this song is that Alec Benjamin got cheated on by his gf so he wrote this song)
You have such a wonderful voice! ❤❤❤❤
This song written in her point of view:
_Could you understand I need some variety,_
_the same taste and smell, is begnin' to get me,_
_While you never wanted me to be lonely,_
_but Jerome and his football team keeps me busy,_
_oooh... keeps me so busy,_
_I'm the queen of the streets, don' tie me down, down, tie me down._
…
*no*
wtf? 💀
What.. 💀💀

Thing is the creator wrote the song after his gf cheated on him so this version could be true.
Not always women are right many people discriminate men from women and think women are always right. I am not saying men are always right but you don't have to always oppose something without knowing the entire thing.
Are you saying women are bad? I don't quite understand.
What trust would he owe her if she cheated?
Both versions are so relatable

Dude why take it so literal. She’s not even saying that was what happened. She makes different sides of the story. Why take it to this? This is what she likes doing, making songs different. Men do this with female artists too. It’s a thing. Why get so insulted by it when she didn’t see it like that at all. I don’t understand how she even implied that she was being like that. She even commented saying how she was sorry people felt that way, she didn’t mean it like that, etc.
Actully Alec wrote this song about his girlfriend who cheated on him, so this would be a more realistic lyrics from her perspective (ik it's not great but it's just an example or idea)
