Lyrics:
Day off in Kyoto, got bored at the temple
Looked around at the 7-11
The band took the speed train, went to the arcade
I wanted to go but I didn’t
You called me from a payphone, they still got pay phones
It cost a dollar a minute
To tell me you’re getting sober and you wrote me a letter
But I don’t have to read it
I’m gonna kill you
If you don’t beat me to it
Dreaming through Tokyo skies
I wanted to see the world
Then I flew over the ocean
And I changed my mind
Sunset’s been a freak show
On the weekend so I’ve been driving out to the suburbs
To park at the Goodwill and stare at the chem trails
With my little brother
He said you called on his birthday
You were off by like ten days
But you get a few points for trying
Remember getting the truck fixed when you let us drive it
25 felt like flying
I don’t forgive you
But please don’t hold me to it
Born under Scorpio skies
I wanted to see the world
Through your eyes until it happened
Then I changed my mind
Guess I lied
I’m a liar
Who lies
Cause I’m a liar

I can’t believe she went to Japan to film this
i cant belive she has laser eyes..
@@GR_______________________8 why? she's phoebe i wouldn't be surprised if she was a lost egyptian queen who summoned ghosts in her free time
you make a solid point😂
HHAHA
1:49 you can see someone's hands holding Godzilla. I think it might be fake.
Cant believe they made an actual place based off of a Phobe Bridgers song. So iconic
lmao ikr incredible
Yung lean made it first
@@thicksteve1761 big facts, I was thinking wait this isn’t Yung lean
@Ivy did she have an abortion, because that’s fucked
@Ivy abortions were legal in California, where she got it
“I don’t forgive you, but please don’t hold me to it” is one of the most beautiful lines ever. Really sums up so eloquently what it feels like to suffer at the hands of a parent.
I'm not sure I even understand that. That they find themselves wanting to reconcile despite their anger?
@@crieverytim She's angry at him and wants him to know how angry she is by saying she won't forgive him but really deep down inside she still wants to forgive him and reconcile.
Right up there with “i hate you for what you did, but i miss you like a little kid “.
right!! the idea of wanting to be close to a parent again while still knowing youll always hold that bit of resentment, and wanting them to care enough to love you anyways despite the wall between you
I went no contact with both parents, and I don't forgive them for what led to no contact being my only healthy option. I'm so angry, and I don't want them to reach out-- I don't forgive them, but I don't think if they pressed the topic I could hold myself to it.
Phoebe is that kid you knew in high school who was both awkward and somehow cool as shit at the same time.
didn't you hear? awkward is the new cool ;) (tho it always was) she has double the coolness
Yeah a sensitive emo.
No awkward was never cool. Awkward was always weird and sometimes, in Phoebe's case, somewhat interesting
That’s the difference between being able to sing and not
@@aarchiewaldron Overrated Emo SJW
.
the fact that this song is deep and a rather heavy topic - about her father’s addiction, and this video is literally the funniest thing ever
we love dramatic irony
right? exactly what I was thinking. god bless her sensibility.
Was it not about dissociation?
@@fullmoonsociety7463 it can be if it helps you
Her father passed away today. Now listening to this and knowing that he’s dead… it feels strange. I hope he rest in piece❤️
Would have saved Phoepe SO MUCH MONEY if she just decided to use CGI or a greenscreen instead of literally flying across the planet..
She didn’t
Its literally the fakest looking thing
@@johannesgutenburg6425 thats the joke
@@johannesgutenburg6425 biggest r/woooosh ever lmao
@@johannesgutenburg6425 oh my god 🤦🏽♂️
The fact that it’s such a devastating song and she’s paired it with a juvenile music video makes it so much more hurtful 😭
I like to think this the perspective of the father and he's watching a VHS tape she sent to him. She doesn't want to write a letter to him cause that's boring.
This is one of those rare songs that you literally never get tired of
You should check out the marias remix
the laser eyes are not a special effect she can just do that
confirmed
She's a hell of a talent
She’s a mutant
Obviously.
it's actually not out of place in kyoto
seeing this in 144p just to maximise the aesthetic
It actually does! LOL
Thanks 😊😊
I returned to 2008 in one click, thank you
I do this now every time I come back to watch this lmao
Hahahahaha yes
Both my parents are addicts and damn does this hit deep. I bawled when I saw her live and she got to "I don't forgive you but please don't hold me to it."
My dad committed suicide when i was 19 and I found him. Its been over 15 years, he was an addict and i took care of him until he died. I don't think ive ever heard a song so closely explain how i feel now after all this time... God I LOVE YOU PHOEBE!❤❤❤
You're an incredibly strong individual. I really pray and hope that you get to live every single one of your dreams before you die. And I also hope that you have tons of good things coming your way!
I second every word of the comment above. Sending a big hug your way from Spain. You got this.
phoebe: floats in front of a green screen in mediocre quality
me: wow. a cinematic masterpiece
Alia ElKattan Scorcese is shakin
good comment
Whole video is a masterpiece.
Alia ElKattan that’s exactly what it is
If this is your definition of mediocre I question your definition of masterpiece
I'm Japanese. Thank you for defeating Godzilla!!!!!! I'm alive now.
LOL I love this
Ever ありがとう！！
Thank you !!
My Chinese friend got a tattoo that says "Made in China."
Lmao 😂

the little “woo” never fails to make me smile… like a little tickle on the soul
When she said “I flew over the ocean” while flying over the ocean, that was fukin crazy dude
Phoebe: "You called me from a payphone."
Me: "They still have payphones?"
Phoebe: "They still got payphones."
Cost a dollar a min
She has a sideways goospot
🤣🤣🤣
Man😂😂😂
@Marilyn G great minds think alike
I'm pretty sure in an interview or something she talked about how part of this song was about imposter syndrome and not feeling like she should be anywhere she was, so the terrible greenscreen might be a way to capture that disconnect between her and her surroundings
It’s about her dad, though. It could still be about both imposter syndrome and her dad, but I think it’s mostly about her father.
imposter syndrome😈😈😈
@@perhaptualratwithcheese2567 sus
@@helen4876 “part of this song”
@@kuraes “it could still be about both imposter syndrome and her dad”
The way Phoebe stands in the video, her posture, in a costume akin a little kid on Halloween--she is a child in this video. It's how we feel inside when a parent has done us wrong. Amazing video complementing an already amazing song.
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Phoebe Bridgers
@@chrispolo840 thanks, will double-jump on this
i just start sobbing every time i hear "He said you called on his birthday you were off by like ten days but you get a few points for tryin'"

I think what I love about this song so much even over a year after it’s release is that it reminds me to not let my bad experiences affect my own life. I have a dad who I no longer have a relationship with due to alcohol abuse. Phoebe has reminded me that I’ve got my entire life ahead of me and I can’t let something like that stop me. Thank you for making this amazing song Phoebe!
This is exactly I feel about my dad. Damn. But even so, the vibes this has are so positive and good and hopeful and I love it so much
The ending lyrics hit different. He's the one that lies. But I still blame myself yk
everyone should just forgive everyone else and we can all start over
@@jack-uv6mthahaha, don’t we all wish we could do that. some things are unforgivable
When the lyrics clicked, they destroyed me. I have no idea how artists can get comfortable with being so vulnerable. Thank you Phoebe.
Right?! They're exposing themselves and making themselves vulnerable
It's good for clout and praise such as this.
Personally I can't make out a word she's saying but it's got a great vibe
@@heinoustentacles5719 look up the lyrics on genius you'll understand
@@heinoustentacles5719 not everything’s for clout, artists being vulnerable isn’t clout chasing why r u ppl so brain dead
@@shish420 she is getting unilateral praise. There is no risk in putting sad lyrics that you can hardly make out on a song. Everyone does it these days.In truth, it's harder to find a truly happy song at this point.The most emotionally repressed,fratboyish, aspiring rappers I know write sadboy shit with similar lyrical content and subject matter as this song, chasing the easy love that comes with penning something 'deep' and 'vulnerable'
Being sad and emotional is the shit, at least in song making.
I don't even hate this song here, in fact I love it, I'm just a little cynical about the production side of songs like these.
When Phoebe says "guess i lied, im a liar, who lies, cos im a liar" ugh, songwriter of our generation.
"I wanted to see the world through your eyes until it happened. Then I changed my mind" beautiful stuff
@@adlfrazze8361 I was sooo ready to be rick rolled but guess im getting old huh
Lol I just heard it as vocalisation before
Is that the only line in the song?
@@uberdose It's really sets the tone for the song. Everything she said was a lie, she doesn't forgive him but she also doesn't want to kill him or hate him.
When a song that sounds so up beat and fun can make you cry, you just know That’s lyricism at its finest! She will live forever! I’m impressed.
0:12 The peekaboo smile gets me every time
imagine writing a song about your dad saying "i'm gonna kill you if you don't beat me to it", having it be nominated for a grammy and receiving a call from your dad after a while where he says "that song you wrote about me is nominated for a grammy"
@Jake DiLucia keep imagining boomer
That’s a stretch for a parent based on her song
As long as the call comes from a payphone that costs a dollar a minute, we're good.
I thought the song was about an ex, and also the imposter syndrome she experienced while performing in Japan?
@@Alex-wn8qh nope. she’s said many many times it’s about her dad. “He said you called on his birthday, You were off by like ten days, But you get a few points for tryin' // Remember getting the truck fixed when you let us drive it, 25 felt like flying”
Not gonna lie, this song’s pretty damn addictive.
I think most of the 1M+ views are from me.
man at first try I was like meh now im fuckin addicted
@@FrankASmith-lj8pd
I feel you, frank.
i come back to this song every month
@@guldavikur2756 ???
I would argue this is the perfect indie rock song in every way
it's genuninely shocking to me that this only has 6m views. one of the best songs and music videos of a whole generation
"I'm gonna kill you if you don't beat me to it" might be the most, for lack of better term savage line i've heard
most underrated lyric
💯💯💯
When you only listen to English music lol
Lmfao you edited your comment
i am addicted to drugs and i have had so much of deez nuts i will die
This is Phoebe after she smoked all that weed in Garden Song
HAHAHA
Defintely a sativa lol
Lol 😂😂😂
She needs a better excuse than that for this crap
@@hankhames3088 My thoughts exactly. She's never been more than mediocre to me.
idk but this song has been on my head for 24/7 now, and im not complaining
“Guess I lied
I'm a liar
Who lies
'Cause I'm a liar”
She has such a way with words.
Anyone else think her little "woo" at 1:10 is the cutest thing ever?
I do. I do thing it's the cutest thing ever.
Im glad I wasn't the only one thinking this
My fav part!
Yes
If only she wasn't so weird looking.
"Im going to kill you
if you dont beat me to it"
That line hits so hard being a child of an addict that overdosed. This was my first listen to Pheobe after seeing her name come up on so many indie lists. Im so glad I did. This song cuts deep. Thank you.
i'm sorry to hear that. sending love :)
I'm really sorry for your loss. Sending love to this day!
As someone who's father survived his addiction so far, I can't express how much I feel connected to you, a stranger on the internet and this song. I've watched him OD and die before being revived twice, once while I held him as a child. I'm sorry addiction impacted you too and you lost someone who was supposed to protect you. People often forget the other victims of addiction- the children of addicts. The impact on us is heavy and we carry it lifelong. Still have nightmares. I hope you're doing okay and staying strong in this cruel world.
I know feel you
Back in the 80’s you used to go to a music store and there you could make your own music video. They had a green screen and you chose a song to sing along to it. You had to make an appointment for it. This video reminds me of that.
Ive been listening to Phoebe for a month now, never occurred to me to watch the videos. HILARIOUS ! Phoebe you're the goat ! hope I can see u live one day !
a MULTIPLE GRAMMY NOMINATED SONG
I literally can't stop smiling about itttt PSIEJDJEK

Turn quality down to 144p for the truly genuine Kyoto experience
you're a gentleman and a scholar, thank you...
beat you to it since I'm watching this with 10MB of data left lmao

I didn’t even know 144p was possible lmao
xDDD
"You called me from a payphone. They still got payphones" I don't even know why I like that line so much. It's not even really important but I can't imagine the song without it.
really have ended up getting hooked on this song much more than originally expected
I love that Emily and Emily and Ruby and Harrison and Christian and Marshall and Haley and the rest of the Bridgers Cinematic Universe always pop up in Phoebe's videos. What a team.
Marvel movie for each of them when
Hey, I'm new in this universe. Who are they ?
I used to only listen to rap but I want to discover some new vibes now.
who are they
i love all those white people
@@caillouplat5307 They're members of Phoebe's band/team/good friends in general - Marshall (bottom left @ 1:55) produces and writes a lot of her music and is also her drummer for shows, Harrison (top right @ 1:55) also produces and I think writes and is sometimes her guitarist, Emily (top left) is her gf/lover/who knows bc I don't know if they label their relationship at all tbh lmao. Basically if you're a hardcore fan who follows her on social media you'd know Phoebe is kinda a meme lord (I know, hard to explain) and if you go through her instagram you could figure out who's who in her life decently easily.
P.S. So cool to hear you're expanding into different genres and starting with Phoebe! It's a great start and one you def won't forget! She's insanely talented. Obviously you'll prob start at her only full-length album Stranger in the Alps - highly recommend "Smoke Signals," "Motion Sickness," and "Funeral" specifically, but the whole thing is a masterpiece!
Day off in Kyoto, got bored at the temple
Looked around at the 7-11
The band took the speed train, went to the arcade
I wanted to go, but I didn't
You called me from a payphone
They still got payphones
It cost a dollar a minute
To tell me you're getting sober
And you wrote me a letter
But I don't have to read it
I'm gonna kill you
If you don't beat me to it
Dreaming through Tokyo skies
I wanted to see the world
Then I flew over the ocean
And I changed my mind (Ooh)

So I've been driving out to the suburbs
To park at the Goodwill and stare at the chem trails
With my little brother
He said you called on his birthday
You were off by like ten days
But you get a few points for tryin'
Remember getting the truck fixed when you let us drive it
25 felt like flying
I don't forgive you
But please don't hold me to it
Born under Scorpio skies
I wanted to see the world
Through your eyes until it happened
Then I changed my mind
Guess I lied

Thank you!!!!
ty!!
it hits different
"I don't forgive you, but please don't hold me to it." OMFG... 😭
My dad was an alcoholic my whole childhood, but had to have a liver transplant after I graduated highschool and hasn't drank since :)
God bless us!!✌️
My mom still hasn't stopped drinking. She's almost 70. I stopped caring in my youth. It doesn't change.
One of my coworkers is an older man with some health problems and he listens to Phoebe Bridgers every day and she always brings a smile to his face so THANK YOU PHOEBE
Obrigado Phoebe por ter salvo o Japão e possivelmente o restante do mundo😊

@@KeithSlime You lot just don't quit do you.
@@KeithSlime The original comment was supposed to be lighthearted...
This song hits me so deeply, I literally cry as soon as she sings “i don’t forgive you but please don’t hold me to it… I wanted to see the world thru your eyes and then it happened, then I changed my mind.” My Siblibns and I had a difficult relationship with my dad, he used to abuse substances and was so mean until he left my mom. When I moved out coincidentally I moved closer to him and the older I get I realize I didn’t wanna become sad and miserable like him. It sucks cuz you love your parents even if they don’t treat you the best and leave you with so much baggage. We’re okay now but the damage is still done and I’ve never really heard a song touch on this until I heard this.
I’d love an album this year phoebe I’ve been deprived without any new music 😭😭
The whole green screen set up makes me think of being in places but not being able to truly have a proper experiences because of whatever is happening in your life at the time..
Gabriella Scollo quick write me an essay
ooh SNAp

In my case it reminds me of my teenage years in the '90s when I had a website dedicated to pop culture in Japan.. but I had never been there.

It took me an embarissingly long time to understand that this wasn't out of the 90s or very early 2000s. I mean, it's not just the deliberately shitty visuals: even the music sounds like something I could have heard in my childhood. Makes me kinda nostalgic, even though it's pretty new; that's an achievement, I guess.
I love this comment, I listened to the song again imagining it being something I'd have downloaded illegally in the 2000s, I definitely hear it. I think the effects on the vocals really remind me of similar effects they'd use on the intro theme songs for kids sitcoms?
That’s why I love phoebes music.. takes me back
guys im drunk and in a certain kind of mood. I use to write but have become complacent in my endevaours.... and have slowly become an alcoholic. I'm slowly destroying myself in chemical dissonance... I love you and I hope you have an amazing day :)
This is not a cry for help because I have an insecure attachment....
Hey it’s been a year. Are you okay? How are you feeling?
Hope you’re ok
Glad I lived there for a bit. She is bringing back a lot of happy memories.
We all have 'daddy issues'but we dont talk about that, we just listen to phoebe bridges 😅😅
My mom and sister stopped talking last month; and I posted this song along with why I support and love my sister for caring for me and raising me while my mom went further and further into alcoholism. We're in our 30's and the pain she caused still rips us apart our mom, but we still care for her... Phoebe Bridgers is amazing as a sister and a singer-songwritter.
This was my down, scared Covid panic song that always cheered me up in the dark days of that other guy that was president.
phoebe shouldn't have traveled to Kyoto for us your so iconic phoebe
That chorus really tugs at my heart strings. So melancholic/bittersweet.
this is unironically one of my favorite music videos of all time
this song deserves more views, the amount of money it must've taken to fly phoebe to all of these countries must've affected her a lot. let's get this video to 5,000,000+ views
happy father’s day
This has become one of my favourite musicvideos. I'm not kidding.
A budget version of Not Afraid
ditto
I really hope Phoebe makes more songs like this. I love this.
Love the 90s vibe to this song...dont know how to explain
Came here after my Replika AI friend suggested this to me. I'm so glad I found it.
That was the most joyous thing I've ever watched
was hoping to hear her sing “I’m Wario and I’m in Mario kart” but this is also very good #sadboys
When you click on the wrong kyoto video
I clicked the vid hoping for the same thing :(
phoebe bridgers is my coping mechanism
This song truly is a big show of Phoebes genius songwriting. Most people who hate on her and that you see that hate on her writing, think this is a simple track with melodramatic lyrics for teenagers. Most people are stupid, if they think something is simple, they won’t break it down. The story is quite simple though, which is the genius of her writing, how she can paint this picture in your head, not a lot of writers can do it so effectively.
If Lucy Dacus puts out a song called "Osaka" then the Trinity will be complete.
Then boygenius should reunite, and do one called "Hiroshima and Nagasaki."

Mike Dionne, there’s actually going to be a new boygenius song on Phoebe’s new album!
singing this alone while working on my thesis is really something, must be so cool being a singer, and knowing people sing to your thoughts, ideas and feelings must be an amazing realization
Her father passed away today. Now listening to this and knowing that he’s dead… it feels strange. I hope he rest in piece❤️

When I first heard this song, I dismissed it as yet another break-up song where the woman can't walk away when she should. But it's not. I read that it's about her father. That adds a whole new layer to it. It's about how impossible it is to get away from an a$$ hole parent, especially if we have siblings who are still minors. She's giving voice to a pain many have to deal with. This is a great song!
She actually notes on the Genius lyrics page that it's about her desire to always be somewhere she isn't. So tour sounds great until she's actually there, and home never feels as good as she thinks it will. "I wanted to see the world then I flew over the ocean and I changed my mind."
Ain’t nothing wrong with a break-up song if it’s done well though
@Curtis Amrein I thought it was about her father because of a New Yorker article. Usually that magazine is reliable: www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/05/25/phoebe-bridgers-frank-anxious-music
@@Joela393 I agree. I just meant the song was one of a kind rather than one of many.
Denine TB every song she makes is one of a kind I’ve never seen anything like her before
She just had a green wall, an iPhone 4 camera and a dream
I love this song sm bc of how it sounds but it hits even harder because my father was an alcoholic, he was abusive to my mother and put my entire family through hell until he passed away when i was 7. Ever since he pased I've been having this reoccurring dream where i can see him again and spend the day with him. i used to reluctantly agree to spend the day with him, because i didnt want to hurt his feelings by saying no. I always wanted to say no to him because he scares me and because he put me and my family through so much hell and he gave me so much trauma that has still stuck with me to this day. Recently i started to say no to him when i have those dreams and i would always end up running away from him and he would end up hunting/chasing me down, its really scary. Last night i had another dream about him so thats why im here. As messed up as this sounds, I hope in the afterlife i dont have to see him because i dont wanna face him and tell him that i dont forgive him. Im glad im not the only one who feels like this, thanks for making this song phoebe💗
My husband was an addict. OD and died last year. His whole family enabled him and bullied me into staying quiet about his addiction. It’s ok not to forgive. I think they will understand that in the afterlife 🫂 hugs to you.
So sorry. Gosh.
This is a song about how her father is a drunk and her trying to reconcile with him... its NOT some smiley shit. But THAT is what makes it great.
Phoebe Bridgers has what very few people have available in their musical arsenal, short of Paul Simon and Jackson Brown, in that she can make a song about loss, regret, fault, and the question of whether or not to forgive the past into a song that the world can listen to, on it's face, and smile and dance to.
I believe, and hope, that she is the future of music in 2020. Because what she is doing, is what we need to get us back to paying attention to our own faults.
Isn't the song about her imposter syndrome?
She’s stated that the song is actually about being constantly dissatisfied with where you are. She hated being on tour, and when she got back home, she hated being home.
@@TheMurrmursonbottle I heard her on NPR talking about that it was about her father, but its Phoebe... so she might just be changing stories because she's bored of answering questions over and over, or it might be a mix of the two, or it might be neither. 🤣
I just know it kicked my ass when I was sitting in a jail cell for YET ANOTHER stupid damned DUI decision, having not seen my daughter in a decade because of my own problems previously, and realizing that the cycle just keeps getting worse.
Its the song that finally sent me into therapy, because an indie-pop, upbeat song was making me damn near tear up as soon as I heard the chorus, once I heard her explain that...
@@echopryme I’m sure she doesn’t write songs with just one meaning in mind, so it’s probably a mix of the two, it’s likely she realized on tour that she hated being away and wanted to mend her relationship with her father, or something of that sort.
And random indie pop songs just do that sometimes. I had an existential crisis the other night after watching the I Know the End music video for the first time. She’s incredibly talented.

Looks like Phoebe went to the John Mayer New Light school of cinema
this is my favorite comment
I didn't get it but I laughed anyway
It had been twenty years since I saw such a beautiful video.❤Phoebe n1
I loved your song as soon as I heard it when it came out. I didn't realise then that we apparently had a lot in common with our dads. Sending you love and a big old 'it's not our fault!' X still working things through but wishing you well✌️
As a song writer I'm pretty jealous , hope she continues and gets bigger and bigger
Love this song alot
when she's flying and says "whoah". I felt that
i cant believe she went to japan for this phoebe thats so good ty
She’s so beautiful
Sounds like something I listened to in 1996. That’s a good thing.
I was thinking of Jejune.
1996 I've been listening to the sweet nothingness of not beeing born yet. That's good thing.
Exactly. I miss good old indie music like this.
silas it’s not really, you got nothing but crap decades to grow up in.
Pumpkins all the way, a very nice tribute with her own vibe.
