@@A13T7 if you study JJ's process of writing you can see that he talks more about overall feelings and the main process than about certain persons, he's more like a narrator of the entire feeling.
@@A13T7 i think JJ is more like the inner voice of every model and influencer, and when he says "you have the ugliest smile" it's about her (the model) negative thoughts and confidence issues.
What I don't get is why they aren't more recognized and popular in general. Truly, are musical tastes so strictly bland and pop culture boring that Kaleo can't get a rising tide of acceptence going? I mean, this voice, these lyrics, just the freaking musicality! Sheesh...
For starters they pour their heart and soul into what they make and do. Also, they refuse to be a heavily commercialized band with a leash around their neck that's held by the money monster the world calls the music industry.
@@edsonnieves7844 Trully agree, they just are a couple of gossip magazine fans that define if a song, album or artist is good or bad, this got spotted on the last grammy´s when they dont nominate The Weeknd just because they have a argue with him
hmmm....i don't think this song is about body shaming. It's actually the opposite. I conveys the anger and pressure of someone who is constantly trying to stay perfect for everyone else. Read the lyrics in the description. I can definitely feel the pain and distress in the song. Love it. Kaleo is amazing. I can't wait for the new album!!
I agree. Poetry can be read and understood in different ways. While this song talks about body shaming and self harm I think you can hear the expectations and pressure on KALEO in this song and in Break My Baby. "They’ll take you in and spit you out you’re only worth how much you sell" "Just give the people what they need" "Does it start to show now the pressures on? Will they call my name when it all goes up in flames?" And then, like you said, this song also talks about pressure and "burning out"
@@macytodd4298 thats also what i thought,i think he says the labels want him to do music in the mainstream way and not in thier own style and keep pressuring them
It's stressful trying to live under everyone else's expectations of you. That stress is eating people up out here. It's another great song from Kaleo. 💙
I agree. The middle part "Your face..." until "suicide teen" reminds me of many shared private messages. Definitely what the person in the song is experiencing from the outside world.
Well, art is about giving audience something to think about. Best art forms are the one where they convey different once at the same time. Art isnt defiant, its what you make of it.
Okay so I don't know if this song was meant to be taken so literal but that's how I listened an lemme tell ya...as a recently recovered anorexic after 5 years or so, I am full on crying on my floor. Nothing could ever hit so hard and feel so real. This man's voice ignites my heart and melts my pain frozen mind in a way I can't explain
Glad to hear about your recovery, please stay safe. Yes, this is about the pressure everybody feels, but especially women. It's good to remember that it's a fucked up world, so let's not pay so much attention to our image or the others', that's the way to resist.
What a world we live in; depressing and devastating but in the same time full of hope, the only ones who could perfectly picture it in our minds. Thank you Kaleo.
First album released right as I was graduating high school, five years later I’m about to graduate college and this album comes out...one of the few bands I actually still listen to from high school for this very fact you said....they. DO . NOT . MISS
This is my favorite song from Kaleo (all their songs are great), no matter if the lyrics resonate with you or not, either way this is an amazing song. Never get tired of hearing Kaleo
Wow, this song... It cuts so deep inside of us. It shows how wretched our society where everyone wants to validate themselves in a group of strangers and actually ignores those who are really important in their life. It's all about "look at me, look at my perfect life, I have a perfect body, perfect spouse, perfect places I have visited". We live in a sick society with sick individuals. That's why I deleted Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and live my life privately where I could truly become a better person. I only use TH-cam right now and that's the only thing left for me.
Same here,we must connect deeper to each other rather than posting fake shit for attention and little self confidence boost.its crazy how these days people worship likes and attention
Wasn't sure what to think of this while first listening, but you pegged the intention! Yes he is not sick, he's exposing the sick world! So sad but true.
When I got acquainted with KALEO for the first time - I was impressed. Then I searched for his live performances - I was literally in seventh heaven. These guys are amazing. Jökull Júlíusson is a gift 👏 👏 👏
I think most of its about speaking to people wherever they are in life. Some songs are darker then others but it hits different depending on where you are in life or see the world. Thats what makes it great.
Ok, yes, JJ's voice just goes to even more ridiculous levels here, but can we all take a minute to acknowledge the drummer's bad-assery. That ghosting and his kick control during the bridge!!! OMFG
I can't describe how much I love KALEO's texts and voice, they are so strong and impactful that no matter what emotions are in them I feel them through, it's just incredible...
Man, I have been through 6 wars and three marriages, never amounted to much to be truthful, but you nailed it with this song, boys. Thank you from an old guy.
It's with 100% no doubt the greatest song that I have listened in the last years.. You can fell the pain and the angry in your soul when you listening that song.
Hearing Kaleo's songs in the loudspeakers at full volume I think is the most beautiful and magical thing that anyone can ever experience..I'm completly in love with their songs😍🔥
As someone who has dealt with all he describes, I wish anyone who feels this way, burnt out, knows it's not your time yet and there will always be a person out there that loves you for exactly who you are, beautiful body weight and all ❤️
Kaleo is hands down my favorite band, ever since I found them a few years ago. One of my favorite authors, Richard Kadrey, recommended them. I've been a fan ever since.
DAMN I don't have the words... Just this is my favourite group for ever. At every new song I'm not disappointed. They are so talented it breaks my heart.
Randomly discoverer Kaleo for the first time in my life last night. This morning its jamming in my car on my way to work and at work. Now just as end of day is hitting me, Kaleo drops a new album with more new songs!. WFT/ Wow. Im dead inlove.
As someone who has had the ups and downs with an ugly eating disorderTHANK YOU for bringing light to the situation! To anyone struggling with ANYTHING: YOU GOT THIS! HEAD UP!
I'm at a real bad point of my life right now, with depression and an ending therapy and everything is just getting to much for me right now... and then i hear this masterpiece... just thanks, this song is fucking great
Hey Calvin - I don't know you, but don't ever give up on your life. You matter. Heck, maybe some day soon we will all be at a Kaleo concert enjoying ourselves. Keep on pushing through.
@@therausas8809 thank you, means a lot... Of course it is never easy but giving up is never an Option... Falling is okay but you always have to get Back Up. And yeah thats a nice dream with the kaleo concert 👍💪
Sending hugs. A real meaningful hug. We all need one and can never seem to get one. If I could I'd give you a real one, but in the meantime, music is a magic healer and thankful we have beautiful artists like this.
Love listening to these guys. I turned 15 on Wednesday, the day before this released, and couldn’t have wished for a better birthday present. Great lyrics, great band!
Another masterpiece ❤😍 I don't care whether you release a new song every 3 months or every 1,2...5 years cause your work is timeless! It's not just another hit pop song that will be forgotten after 2 months like it never came out. Quality over Quantity, that's why we love your work!
@@RevoltEnergy Чому ж не читала? Читала. Але як людина ну дуже слабо англомовна, в першу чергу люблю Kaleo вухами, хоч це наївно і по-дитячому. Тексти глибокі та серйозні у багатьох їхніх піснях. "Way down we go" взагалі гімном 2020 року багато хто вважає...
Yo, I always feel Kaleo's music, but I gotta say this song was crazy deep. Definitely felt this one! Thanks, y'all are amazing. Anyone who reads this should Definitely share this song.... like EVERYWHERE. 💯💗🤙
I understood why they release a song just once in a blue moon, we wouldn't stand up to so many songs all beautiful all together. They are too much for us mortals

I can't understand how can someone have such an amazing voice this is insane
Seems unreal doesn't it? And the crazy part is ....live, he sounds exactly the same. Really not use to that with artists today.
His voice is truly amazing Live. One of the only bands that sound better live in my opinion.
Its called tallent
always thinkin the same unreal..
I had the same thought!
Kaleo... !!!! Always feelin your music in the depths of my soul!!!!
This one hit DIFFERENT. Obviously about social media and models.
i was thinking it was maybe about the woman he was with, i haven’t really seen anything about her in a while

How is Kaleo SO GOOD 🥺
Prioritizing making great blues-rock instead of their 'image'
they are from iceland...name one bad band from iceland
Cause they‘re real
These guys are ‘no good’.
For starters they pour their heart and soul into what they make and do. Also, they refuse to be a heavily commercialized band with a leash around their neck that's held by the money monster the world calls the music industry.

Too true

What a world we live in; depressing and devastating but in the same time full of hope, the only ones who could perfectly picture it in our minds.
Thank you Kaleo.
Producer: How much anger and resentment do you want to put into this song?
Kaleo: Hell yeah
KALEO:i wanna sing it at a live volcano
Producer:ok!
I’m no pretty sure he just would have shouted YEeeeeAAaH!
You forgot...

It's about quality not quantity :) if you want quantity listen to Lil Pump :D
you better be patient dude

Kaleo is one of those artists who has to be gatekeeped from all those tiktoks & reels for sure
Kaleo- “what makes you angry?”
Me- His voice is truly amazing and I’m jealous of it!
I feel you bro
Loving this band at 70 yo.
@cmac: 👍💯
Me too…69.
When I clicked all excited for a new song, I wasn't expecting to cry over the lyrics... What a world we live in.
It’s a masterpiece, ur a legend
I've listened this song about 40 times on repeat today. And the day is not over yet.
KALEO are so great it's hard to believe they are modern band!

Cant rush masterpieces like this.
Good lord this band is refreshing for music nowadays...
This song is surprisingly more dark for them, but I like it!
Actually a lot of songs from them have a dark and blue tone but that's what I enjoy about them
yup there recent songs have deep meanings,but i love it and also im hoping for some crazy song like No Good
More dark than "Broken Bones" or "Way Down We Go"?
There's a sense of genuine outrage and resentment in the vocals. Good song. Got some anger to it.

Prawda !
Quality is King.
As someone with a severe anorexia, BPD and anxiety, this hits close to home. Nice job KALEO. Got me in the feels...
Surprises like this keeps the tough times going on smooth
One of the most underrated bands of this age. Kaleo manages to revive dead genres with a breath of fresh air. Keep making bangers Kaleo!
This has to be the only band I haven't listened a single bad song from. Underrated‼️
I wanted to write the same
👍👍👍
Kaleo are one of the few bands that I listen to every new song multiple times when I first hear it, because they are so so good
The start of this song hits different
WOW I have had goose bumps through this entire song ! His voice is literally the best !!😍
I can't describe how much I love KALEO's texts and voice, they are so strong and impactful that no matter what emotions are in them I feel them through, it's just incredible...
I freaking love this song!
And I thought music vanished when we got passed the 2000s. This is the best I've listened to in two decades, by a mile.
👍👍👍
Great voice, great band, great song! Thank you Iceland for this precious! We don't disserve!
Your music is always so raw and beautiful orchestrated . Don’t ever change
This band is ice cold 🥶 supremely underrated! Go ahead Kaleo
When i think its impossible for them to do better songs... they come and make this masterpiece.
I am genuinely amazed
The guitar at the end is impeccable, something about it just releases so much anger.
I was genuinely afraid for a moment that the notification for this song was an April fool's joke 😂
They pulled a reverse psychology on us😂
