Lyrics:
DAD GOT HIS EAR PIERCED, HE’S 49
UNEMPLOYMENT ISN’T TREATING HIM FINE
HE TRIES ON MY CLOTHES
AS IF THEY’LL MAKE HIM COOLER
MOM’S STILL WORKING ON SOME LAWYER CASE
SHE’S NEVER HERE,
I’M FORGETTING HER FACE
AND I’M AFRAID
OF WHAT DAD MIGHT TAKE UP NEXT
PETER BOOKED HIS NEXT BIG ROLE
BUSSING TABLES
HE SAYS IT’S A STRETCH FOR HIM
BUT ME, SURPRISINGLY,
I’M DOING GREAT,
BECAUSE TODAY
ME AND MR. POPULARITY
WILL BE SPENDING MORE TIME YOU SEE,
‘CAUSE HE NEEDS A TUTOR FOR COMPUTER SCIENCE
UNTIL THE SEMESTER’S END
AND FOR ME THIS IS THE CLOSEST THING
TO HAVING A FRIEND
TWO WEEKS LATER AND THINGS ARE NEAT
SOMETIMES HE WAVES TO ME ON THE STREET,
BUT THAT’S ONLY WHEN
THERE’S NO ONE IN SIGHT
I COULD TAKE IT PERSONALLY,
BUT WE’RE NOT HANGING,
JUST TUTORING AND IT’S FINE -
I UNDERSTAND MY ROLE
BUT TODAY, HE CAME TO ME,
IT WAS KINDA NEW
ASKED IF I WANTED TO SMOKE WITH HIM SOME NIGHT
AND I SAID,
“UM WELL, I’VE NEVER SMOKED BEFORE BUT ALRIGHT!”
ME AND MR. POPULARITY
WILL BE ENGAGING IN ILLEGAL ACTIVITY
GUESS HE’S TIRED OF COMPUTER SCIENCE,
SO NOW I’M GONNA SPEND
A NIGHT GETTING TO KNOW A JOINT -
AND MAYBE A FRIEND
SUCH A STRANGE AND NEW SENSATION
ACTUALLY HAVING A CONVERSATION
FEELING ANXIOUS AND NERVOUS,
BUT HE’S INCREDIBLY CALM
HE TALKS ABOUT FOOTBALL AND GIRLS
HE LIVES IN SUCH A DIFFERENT WORLD
A LIFE HE SEEMS TO PROTECT
SO I NOD, AND I LISTEN AND LEARN
WHILE IT SUDDENLY STARTS TO TURN
THINGS YOU’D NEVER EXPECT
SEEING HE’S SOMEWHAT OF A WRECK
AND THAT’S SOMETHING WE CAN CONNECT ON
DAD NOW LISTENS TO LIL WAYNE
MOM IS STRESSED AND GOING INSANE
AND NORMALLY, I WOULD CARE
PETER’S STILL AUDITIONING
OUT THERE LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM
AT LEAST THAT’S WHAT THEY SAY
BUT ME, REFRESHINGLY, I’M DOING GREAT
I’M APPRECIATING ALL THE TIME I SPEND
‘CAUSE I NEVER KNEW
I NEVER KNEW, BACK THEN THAT
ME AND MR. POPULARITY
WOULD BE SPENDING MORE TIME
YOU SEE, ‘CAUSE HE NEEDED A TUTOR FOR
COMPUTER SCIENCE
BUT THAT WAS WAY BACK THEN
NOW WE LAUGH AND TALK AGAIN AND AGAIN
AND REALLY, I THINK HIM AND ME
ARE POSSIBLY
BECOMING FRIENDS - เพลง

The lyrics, the melody, his voice, the story... GOD, it was incredible!!!
I loved the song
Thank you!
@@JoeyContreras Is In Pieces an actual musical? I can only find the album and covers of the songs. Sorry if this is a silly question but is it an actual play or just a collection of songs?
please tell me i'm not the only one who laughs too hard at "me and mr popularity will be engaging in illegal activity. guess he's tired of computer science"
Why am I addicted to him singing "computer science"?
not complaining tho
Never hit a thumbnail so quick before. "Is that Linguini!?!?"
Hahahahah!
@Helen Yim lmao same. It's so weird to see new fans when we spent the whole year watching Broadway Jackbox xD
Right! I remember watching him win the Jimmys!
How did I know that Andrew would option up at the end??
*we're close, but not that way*
stop😭😭
One of the best ever versions of this song! I've listened to ALOT of them on TH-cam. I like the pace, cadence and just the voice that is ABF! He fits the character so well, and his voice has matured since the Jimmy Awards and DEH. Can't wait to see him in HSMTMTS
I can’t wait either!! Thanks for listening and commenting 🤍
Andrew is adorable I can’t 🥰
AND I KEEP FORGETTING THAT ABF IS STILL TEENAGER.
First thought was this will be a boy version of little miss perfect, but he said he just want to be friend with mr. Popularity 🥺💖💖 that's sooooo cute💖
It’s up to interpretation since we don’t necessarily have the context of the song in the musical yet! I personally see it as them becoming friends and something more than that ☺️
I’m glad that it’s about friendships I feel like there aren’t enough songs about friends 😂
It’s not about the friendship. They fall in love in the musical.
Each second that passes I become increasingly more excited for this!
!!!!!!!
omg, this is such an Evan song! i love that andrew’s singing this!
🤍🤍🤍
Why is his voice so amazing???
This actually slaps so hard
Heh, thanks 😛
FLAWLESS!! Also, chills on that last note
Omg he is so resonant with his notes! So amazing!
This is really great. An engaging story with a super catchy tune. Captured that awkward part of life in a truthful way. Bravo!
GOD I LOVE ANDREW he's so pure and perfect I've never seen anyone so perfect
I LOVE THIS so much... His voice is high-key amazing as usual and the music is Perfect
Thank you! Glad you love it ✨❤️ And yes, Andrew is incredible! 😍
love this, especially 1:38
I don't think I've ever heard a song with Andrew and was not totally impressed by how precisely he hits the notes!
Also is Andrew being type-casted as the awkward person in everything now? He plays it so well! Of course Evan takes the cake with awkwardness, but Linguini and this individual have their moments.
i couldnt care less if it should be "mr popularity and i" i adore this song 💀💀
Great song, Joey and great performance, Andrew. I'll add this to my JC playlist. I'm obsessed with your music
This is amazing! I hope Andrew stays with this show. I hope it's Broadway bound.
That was so good loved it
Thanks for listening!!
This is going to be one interesting colab! 😁
I love his voice Andrew Barth Feldman soooooo coool
absolutely BREATHTAKING!!!!!
I've loved this song since I saw Anthony perform it at one of your shows a few years ago. I love this version too!!
Love, love Anthony's performance of this!!

A PERFEIÇÃO KRL
Sheet music bought, song, LEARNING
Yes! Can't wait to hear!
Te amo, Andrew
I loved this song can’t wait to see the show! Honestly I’m hooked the last time I remember being this excited was for dear Evan Hansen.
I really am enjoying this song. It came up in a random TH-cam playlist. I remember being 13, 14, 15 and wondering why I wanted attention from “Mr. Popularity” haha.
I wonder about about the line “a life he seems to protect.” What’s the motivation here?
Also why have the word connect- on? It’s a really good song. 😊
You are adorable and so talented; keep doing what you're doing cause we neeed more of you in the world! 😊
Great song! I listened to your albums so much during corona, Joey! Thank you for your wonderful songs!
Thank you so much for listening! Hope it helped during the quarantine 💙
@@JoeyContreras Yes very much! A lot of new repertoire once all this is over ;-)
Is there an instrumental version? Would love to sing the song myself
You can get an instrumental track at joeycontreras.com!
Thanks!
@@JoeyContreras Will there be a female version of the instrumental of this song maybe? :)
Big fan of Andrew. Liked him in no hard feelings and a tourist guide to love. He should do more romcoms and sing
I love him so much. 😕
Hey is there a follow up to this? I tried search "In Pieces the musical" but I cant find any info... was it just an album? Or is it an actual musical play? I would love to know what happens to these characters and see the rest of the story...
Lyrics:
Dad got his ear pierced, he's forty nine,
Unemployment isn't treating him fine
He tries on my clothes
As if it'll make him cooler
Mom's still working on some lawyer case
She's never here, I'm forgetting her face,
And I'm afraid of what dad might take up next
Peter booked his next big role, bussing tables
He says it's a stretch for him
But me, surprisingly I'm doing great
Because today
Me and Mr. Popularity will be
Spending more time you see, cause he
Needs a tutor for computer science
Until the semesters end
And for me, this is the closest thing to having a friend
Two weeks later and things are neat
Sometimes he waves at me on the street,
But that's only when there's no one in sight
I could take it personally,
But we're not hanging, just tutoring,
And it's fine, I understand my role
But today, he came to me it was kind of new
Asked if I wanted to smoke with him some night,
And I said, "Um, well, I've never smoked before, but alright!"
Me and Mr. Popularity will be
Engaging in illegal activity
Guess he's tired of computer science
So now I'm gonna spend a night getting to know a joint,
And maybe a friend
Such a strange and new sensation,
Actually having a conversation
Feeling anxious and nervous,
But he's incredibly calm
He talks about football and girls,
He lives in such a different world,
A life he seems to protect
So I nod and I listen and learn
As it suddenly starts to turn
To things you'd never expect
Seeing he's somewhat of a wreck,
And that's something we can connect on
Dad now listens to Lil Wayne,
Mom is stressed and going insane,
And normally I would care
Peter's out auditioning,
Out there living the American dream
At least that's what they say
But me, refreshingly, I'm doing great
I'm appreciating every time I spend,
Cause I never knew,
I never knew,
Back then that Me and Mr. Popularity would be
Spending more time you see,
Cause he needed a tutor for computer science,
But that was way back then,
Now we talk and laugh, again and again,
And really, I think him and me
Are possibly
Becoming friends
Waitt.... I'm surprised that a Filipino/Tagalog translation was included in the subtitles.
you know I wasn't a big fan of Andrew when he was Evan it just felt off to me (my opinion) but man, his voice has grown and I love this song!
how do i watch In Pieces??? this cover makes me wanna watch it
Is there anywhere to watch the musical yet, or any plans to stream a performance of the whole musical? I want to buy the album, but I don't want to spoil the storyline before I've had a chance to see the show.
A feature film has been announced in London, and will be able to be streamed at the end of April!
@@JoeyContreras I CAN'T WAIT!!!
I wonder if I can do this for thespians districts??
Wait... part 2 all about how they end up getting together, right??
Maybeeeee, maybe notttt? ;)
if i said peter and jason’s origin story. well. i’d be right
what character in the musical songs this?
Charlie!
@@JoeyContreras ah thanks - so excited to see it! you’re unbelievably talented!
Was this shot at YU?
Yes! The exterior shots were outside of YU!
Will this song, Me ang Mr. Popularity, will form part of the the Heartstopper Musical? 😄
