Lyrics:
I should move
Cause New York is getting muddy out
There’s LA
But it’s always kinda sunny out
And I don’t wanna hurt no more
So I set my bar real low
I’m A-okay
I’m A-okay
You say it but you just don’t mean it
You’re so insane
You’re so insane
Shut up and just enjoy this feeling
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
I wake up
And I’m not so mad at twitter now
Living sucks
But it’s sucking just a little now
And I don’t wanna cry no more
So I set my bar real low
I’m A-okay
I’m A-okay
You say it but you just don’t mean it
You’re so insane
You’re so insane
Shut up and just enjoy this feeling
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
I may be wrong
I may be wrong
It’s stupid but it’s all I have
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Well I can’t fall asleep
And I’m losing my mind
Cause it’s half past three
And my brain’s on fire
I been counting sheep
But the sheep all died
And I’m trying too hard
But I can’t not try
Well I can’t fall asleep
And I’m losing my mind
Yeah it’s half past three
And my brain’s on fire
I been counting sheep
But the sheep all died
And I’m not dead yet
So I guess I’ll be alright
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
I may be wrong
I may be wrong
It’s stupid but it’s all I have
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad

Wow YES
Hi MAX aaaa
You're finally here lol!
my favorite nyc besties
.
YOU GUYS NEED TO COLLAB! working for the weekend is still on my ajr playlist lol
this made me way less sad
Even more when it was the day after my birthday.
I was about to comment that
m.th-cam.com/video/a4cggOCGBMs/w-d-xo.html
@Jackson
Exactly what I said☺️
Between Bang, Bummerland, My Play, and this, IM HYPED FOR OK ORCHESTRA
Yeah! Im excited for for this album :)
Same
Aren’t we all?
@@kg_sammich I hope so-
Yep
"I'm not yet dead , so I guess I'll be alright" . Line hits 💥💥
It's "I'm not DEAD yet
Also I agree
They put that line in “OK Overture”
Yes! Your so right!
sure he's not dead but that poor, poor hat
The meaning of half of AJR’s songs are basically “I’m depressed but not that much”
That is the best summary I’ve heard
We're depressed but not that much..........
After we hear this song
true
you dont even know the half of it. the rest of the album is pretty crazy
oh wow
This is the first song that I’ve heard that acknowledges that you don’t go from depression to good in a day.
you might like don’t be sad by Scotty sire :)
Another good song about that in between depression and 'happy' is a work in progress song is "I don't wanna be sad" by Simple Plan
However they did write a whole musical about that called next to normal....
Thats ajr for you. Always somehow knowing all of us
Someone in the comment section of Bummerland said that "whenever they're depressed they listen to this and they're normal again" that isnt how depression works my guy
“People want shirts with the band name on it”
Jack: wears a shirt with “the band name” on it
All of us: you naught naughty, you teasing me

@@elielelias24 well I want one :(
@@cadoncastrechino9586 I think they sell it on their merch store
@@tmp123ful if they sell an actual shirt that just says “the band name” on it I need it in my life lol
I love how I can encapsulate all of AJR’s music into the theme of “life sucks, everything sucks, but I’m making the best of it.” Truly inspirational music, nice job guys!
LMAO that’s so true lol
Frfr
It's so realistic... It's validating the feelings a lot of people have without trying to be a "rescuer" by saying "everything will be fine" like some other messages that go out with toxic positivity
Yes!
Yeah for sure. Eden, my favorite artist of all time has the exact same vibe.
AJR’s Video Editor - “I’m a-okay! I’m a-okay!”
Me watching 2:56 - “You say it but you just don’t mean it”

"Living sucks, but it's sucking just a little now" is the best line I've ever heard in a song. I can't get it out of my head

That's not a line
That's a quote

@Camryn Taylor what link
@@duckman5545 I'm guessing one reply had a malicious link, which I'll presume has since been removed
I love this song because instead of focusing on “I’m not happy yet”, the upbeat beat makes it sound more like a celebration of the fact that “I’m way less sad” and since as the song suggests, you don’t go from depressed to happy at the flick of a switch it teaches people to celebrate their little victories and the small things they can do to improve their state.
Cheers, ill drink to that step-sis
Yes!

❤️🔥
Listening to this after Bummerland makes it feel like a story of someone who's hit rock bottom and is slowly working their way back to happiness. Very nice.
Maybe an unannounced continuation of turning out?
Honestly true because bang was they’re lowest like REALLY low there’s a line saying “ everybody come HANG LETS GO OUT WITH A BANG “ and slowly it’s all depressing stuff but getting more happy and bang was the first song of the album
I've recently gotten into AJR in the past year, but every song they drop is *exactly* where I'm at in life... Bang, bummerland, turning out 2, and now this. It's amazing, but I'm getting better..
Wait a second maybe that's what they're doing
Or starting with my play as a prequel and then bummerland and then way less sad gives a reason too
This song resonates deep in the bones of anyone who's been through depression.
Being way less sad is an accomplishment
I have osteoporosis
So I guess that's why I love this song
It got me through COVID.
I don't know if I've been through depression... but this song explains me... should I be worried?
I think this song is a way healthier than the songs we typically get about depression. Depression is often portrayed as happening to most people because of something bad that happened in their life, and then they get help once and it is like the mental illness is gone! Maybe that happens for some, but for a lot of people, depression doesn’t go away completely. Very, very rarely, it may never actually go away at all. That is terrifying! Many people seem confused by the concept someone can do everything right and still be depressed. They go to therapy constantly, take their meds on time, actively use appropriate coping skills, and always follow the advice of their doctor and yet it doesn’t help. So, what do we do when that happens? What happens when we have tried countless medications, therapies, and treatments and it still doesn’t get any better? Is that the beginning of the journey, or is that the end? This song validates the experiences of those kinds of people. In my opinion, not being happier but being way less sad is a fantastic achievement!
It's just the beginning. It takes a lot of time to realize that there are more ppl going through what you are and still dealing with the same doubt. Success does not have the same measure when you have chronic depression. Wishing you all the best in your daily achievements! And that's how we should measure, day by day going forward not with the yard stick of the past.
y'all these were worded beautifully ? like damn didnt need to have me crying in the club
People mess up their own lives all the time, getting over depression is really easy with the right mindset.
@@hllyenaylleth9576 wtf dude
@@vasconcelos7356 still true. And what, is everyone a dude on the internet?
This has gotta be one of the weirdest all over the place music videos they've ever done and I LOVE IT
Even more than 100 Bad Days?? Actually yeah you’re right, this one pretty out there...
Yea
I agree this is very weird but it is now one of my favorites
100 bad days is kind of trippy
Nah. Still thinking 100 Bad Days still takes the cake.
Can we appreciate that three dudes that did covers for songs made a band that made so many people happy through tough times
th-cam.com/video/lmLZwE10Cu0/w-d-xo.html..
Yeah. This was uploaded a day after my birthday. I am grateful
They're such nice people, it's amazing.
@@taralamlam1287 Damn, that's crazy, but I don't remember asking.
th-cam.com/video/5T94LTYSvlU/w-d-xo.html
This song means so much to me, I was depressed for a couple of years back and only now I'm starting to feel finally "ok", not happy yet, but I'm not that sad anymore. Not only that, but my dad used to ask me why I wasn't happy with life and I tried to explain so many time that I wasn't unhappy, but I wasn't happy either, I was just "ok", so one day I sent him this song, and I think he understood, because he has never asked me that again.
This song really gives me a good, wholesome message in my dark and sad times, almost as if everything will he okay.
Wow, I fell like that too, must be hard but after listen to this song I still fell okay, not happy yet, but still okay
me too!
Lol you should be depressed if you listen to literal garbage like this 🤣 😂 😅
@@ypcsquirrel I used to be, but the song helped me a lot, there's nothing wrong with disliking a genre of music, but I think what's really depressing is putting others down for liking what you don't like, almost like we're completely different people and we won't agree on everything.
yo this is sibling goals
also, thank you for making me feel way less sad!
Yes!
Le gasp! I'm a big fan! Do you think you'll use this song for a little pickle town animation?
OH MY GOD I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCHHH I DIDNT KNOW YOU WERE A FAN OF AJR
I didn’t know you liked AJR! Hi anana!
OMG
My daughter is 6 and has autism. She loves this song and is currently listening to it on repeat. 4 times in a row now with her angelic voice singing the lyrics.
She told me she wants to play music like that. Thank you for inspiring her!
Much love.
Well, I speak from experience when I say: get used to this. And for her sake, I hope you do. Those of us on the spectrum need our parents to support us, and not get bored of songs on repeat, or infinite dinosaur facts, etcetera. Let her know you're behind her, and I'm sure you'll see amazing things in the years to come. I'm sure she'll be grateful to know you're there.
I also have autism and I can confirm that this song is amazing and I too am inspired!
I know your daughter will be great.
I'm sorry, this is just so cute-
I hope you and your daughter have an AMAZING day!!!
So sweet, bless your heart
I’m shocked they’re not more famous than they are... like I love how they’re kinda a hidden gem but I know so many more people would/could love their music the way I do
th-cam.com/video/lmLZwE10Cu0/w-d-xo.html.......
@Tyler Nelson and we'll never know what their habits are or that they spent 20 grand on shirts
Based on how they sold out the Anthem in DC right before the lockdown last year, and their major commercial features this year, I'm gonna say they're not so hidden anymore ;)
agreed
Exactly, their music is really unique and they don't just make music about love and breakups, they're really special.
I love the line "so I set my bar real low."
It illustrates the picture that you need to start small when getting over things like depression. Eventually, things that seemed monumental in effort seems like "real low."
Hang in there!
There ya go. "No I ain't happy yet, but I'm way less sad" has been my battlecry for a while, it was nice to hear a modern artist sing about how we don't always just get to paint in broad swathes like that.
Fr
Yesssss 😢❤❤
"It's stupid but it's all I have," is the next best lyric.

Babe wake up AJR just dropped another song that perfectly illustrates how you've been feeling for the past few weeks in a way that makes you appreciate the band's existence as if they were designed specifically in this universe in order to comfort you through hard times!
I might not be your babe.... but this guy agrees with you. :)
The worlds still not doing any better then it was last year, but here is hoping.
Yes honey :|
i wish i could unread this
Ok
This song is a double wammy for me. First, its the song that was on the radio while my mom drove me to my high school graduation. Second, I play it after my therapy sessions to help me feel proud of myself. I love you AJR. Thank you so much for writing this.

“I may be wrong, it’s stupid but it’s all I have”
That is one of the greatest lyrics AJR has ever written and nobody can prove me otherwise
brb proving you otherwise
Agreed
“I been counting sheep but the sheep all died” a bit disturbing but catchy!
I've always been partial to "because I wanna move out, I don't wanna move on," "all my new friends, we smile at party time, but soon we forget to smile at anything else," and "all of my life I have been starving
- not for a dinner with friends, more of a starving artist."
@@strawberrana THANK YOU! i was about to mention those!.. ok maybe not all of em but definitely don't throw out my legos.
Me: I don't know how to describe this moment in my depression.
AJR: It's THIS.
Yup
Fuck, this is so accurate...
Haha .. Y e a h
*sighs* w h y
When people ask how I'm doing I just say, "I'm way less sad then yesterday"
man, im 62 years old and have never cared to be a groupy and although hearing great songs over the years, nothing really struck me as this is great, refreshing and enjoyable, you are a real dork man and thank you for sharing yourself with the world. I hope your music stays working for you and not working you. yeah the hat is cozy and comfy, id wear mine all the time but it would always get tilted and kicked to a 45 still comfy. good luck in recognizing and achieving your dreams
Saw a lot of older fans at the show I went to last night. The age range these guys attract is so wide.
Anyone else noice how every time they say “I’m A-okay” is when they’re underwater about to drown?
Yes :')
Yup. It's odd, but that's what makes AJR awesome. The odd things.
@@stargazer0365 or maybe not 👀
Yeah it's like the This Is Fine meme while they're on fire
@@cosmicofthestars3095 they never actually went underwater, its jst camera tricks
I’ve been a fan for a little over a year now and they still have this effect on me where as soon as a new song comes out I’m like “eh, it’s ok I guess” then I hear it again and I’m like “oh crap, it’s a bop”
dude sameee!!! only difference is that ive been a fan a lil longer but doesnt matter. we still a part of the same fam base :)
same!!! it always hits with some delay lmao
I’ve only been a fan for a few months, but same. Even when I went back and listened to their older songs. Usually I listen to one of their songs for the first time, my reaction is “It’s alright,” but the next day somehow the song pops into my head. So I listen to it again and I love it
yea i started listening to him when weak came out and never stopped
same
So I've followed AJR since "What Everyone's Thinking" and seeing how large their audience has grown is incredible. I think I can speak for 1.54 million people when we say thank you AJR for doing what you do and giving us all a safe space to just listen and relax. Even if it's just background music while some of us do homework or go to sleep, you three are incredible and do incredible things, so thank you.
Agreed!
Agreed it's been a ride
Agreed
Yup
Definitely. I’m really glad to say I knew them since Living Room, but DAMN, have they come a long way
I'm convinced that if this song was sung by any other band it would be the saddest song on the iternet
Fr
This song has helped me come to terms with my mental health, over the years, sure I'm not happy yet but I'm way less sad and that's fucking progress.
Same!!! It’s like a mental health anthem!

As I also can’t wait
This is such an important song. Sometimes aiming for ‘happy’ feels like too big of a goal, so for the time being you aim to just be ‘a bit less sad’, then a ‘bit less sad’ turns into ‘way less sad’

Their parents must be so proud that they raised 3 amazing musicians.
ikrrrrrr
I think they most definitely are :)
more importantly, how they named their kids decided the band name
Yes, but they were probably proud long before. Try having kids- you can't not be in love with everything they do. I'm just saying being proud of them starts with eat, sleep and poop. It's only up from there. LOL

I know I'm late, but thank you so much for this 🙏 I have a cancer diagnosis and it's been such a horrible year, just between feeling like hell, isolation and VERY few good days, it's been fking hard. I feel like I finally have some people who love me and support me regardless--and this song feels like love. Everyone knows I'm not getting better, but despite it all... I'm way less sad. This song is my "good days", the full band makes me feel alive and the lyrics are just perfect. Simple yet so relatable. I'm not loving life... But I am living every day I can. It may be stupid but it's all I have... These lyrics make me cry and smile at the same time 🙏💕
To anyone going thru hard times, it's ok. It'll never be perfect, and you don't have to be soaked in positivity, but I hope this song brightens your day like mine 🤗 Try again tomorrow 🥂

Something I love about AJR is that they don't try and make everything seem perfect. In this song and even in bummerland the main theme is compromise. Your depression may not be completely cured and you may not have the perfect life, but at least its getting better. At least you've made progress and honestly thats enough for me
They are realistic and that is comforting. Same with turning out and turning out pt. 2. They take into account realism and makes such great music as a result
I feel like this song connects with a lot of us.

I love this song. It sums what I feel perfectly.

This is the firs AJR song I ever heard so it will always have a special place I my heart❤
yey, nice
This also goes for me, since the first time I heard it was on the radio, but I didn't catch the name and I had to wait for it to come on the radio again, and ever since learning the name I catch myself revisiting it almost weekly, sometimes multiple times a week
i believe i heard burn the house down first but i didn't know who they were yet.
Yessss 😂😢❤
This gives me the “enjoy those little moments” type of feeling
Like the part that says “Shut up and just enjoy this feeling” followed by “I’m not happy yet, but I’m way less sad”
He’s not cured, but he needs to enjoy what he gets
thats basically what ajr songs all about
@@nanand.r yea I guess ur right
Me on a daily basis
@@nanand.r unus annus maybe?
In all seriousness, I get it tho
Like when you are in between the process of getting better so you're not happy or "cured" but hey you are learning how to cope better
AJR, you make incredible work. I'd say you deserve more, but its your decision of how much fame you want. We're all proud of what you accomplished. And Winter will be too.
I agree
“Winter would be too” aww🥰
"and life will be too"
This is such a wholesome comment oh my gosh-
100 percent
Aaaaaaaaaaa i love it alreadyyyy
Hello
whats your favorite song btw? mines gotta be sober up
sdfg
sameeeee
Blackie Im a fan because of your "im not famous vid" (P.S. i didnt know you were a real ajr fan so 👌👌👌👍👍👍)
I’m A-okay
I’m A-okay
You say it but you just don’t mean it
You’re so insane
You’re so insane
Shut up and just enjoy this feeling
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
I wake up
And I’m not so mad at twitter now
Living sucks
But it’s sucking just a little now
And I don’t wanna cry no more
So I set my bar real low
I’m A-okay
I’m A-okay
You say it but you just don’t mean it
You’re so insane
You’re so insane
Shut up and just enjoy this feeling
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
I may be wrong
I may be wrong
It’s stupid but it’s all I have
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Well I can’t fall asleep
And I’m losing my mind
Cause it’s half past three
And my brain’s on fire
I been counting sheep
But the sheep all died
And I’m trying too hard
But I can’t not try
Well I can’t fall asleep
And I’m losing my mind
Yeah it’s half past three
And my brain’s on fire
I been counting sheep
But the sheep all died
And I’m not dead yet
So I guess I’ll be alright
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
I may be wrong
I may be wrong
It’s stupid but it’s all I have
Don’t you love it
Don’t you love it
No I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
😢😅❤❤❤

Somehow every AJR song sounds exactly the same yet completely different at the same time
Ikr 😭❤
It has the AJR charm but its unique too 👌
So true
like its sound boring at first but afterwards you ove it
Right?☺
As someone who struggles with depression, this song speaks the language of my heart. It's ok to admit that things are rough, but hopefully today is less bad than yesterday was.
times are rough, we just have to make the best of it. keep thinking positive thoughts!
same bro
Y’all’s comments are making me cry in a bittersweet way and idk why 😩🥹✨
"I've been counting sheep but the sheep all die"
Plot Twist: He kills a sheep every time he counts one
10 kill streak juggernaut ready
LMFAO
I died laughing at that part idk why it was so funny
This song has gotten me thru some dark days. Thanks guys ❤
Same
Same
The “way less sad” part sounds JUST like the “still turning out” in Turning out in the click‼️
Ya but happier
Exactly what I was thinking
@@UnknownUser-ty5ux you mean way less sad?

I like how he’s actually doing a bunch of things that kids do to feel happy, like jumping on the bed, or hanging upside down. He just want simple happy.
Uhhh 0:35
Should I be concerned about what you did as a child?
@@ryantalley5284 ummm...swimming? Ok, that’s a good question. Or maybe that floaty feeling in an elevator...?
@@arianabell9351 that one is basically just symbolism for "drowning behind closed doors." You want to press the open button, it'd be so easy to just let go of your issues onto someone else, but you keep them shut because you don't want to flood anyone.
yeah bouncing on beds, hanging upside down, hanging out with your 20 clones on a staircase. All the kids happy feels.
@@ryantalley5284 LOL
Is it just me or every song they do sounds so damn good
Yep
Too GOOD 🙌🏽 🙌🏽 🙌🏽
“People want shirts with the band name on it”
Shows shirts with the words “The Band Name” on them
OH MY GOD THAT'S SO FUNNY I JUST REALIZED
I can't remember which song the line is from, help me out?

Jack's hat is already part of him, it doesn't even fall when he is upside-down
Yep
YOUR SO RIGHT LOL 😂😂
if i had a therapist i would definitely be bringing this song to our next meeting
Thank you for giving me this idea😂😂😂 I will be doing this on Friday
If you brought this song to a therapy session, I would definitely want to be your therapist
@@prawnking6061 lol same
I literally showed my therapist some of AJR’s songs yesterday and she’s probably more concerned now 😭
@@lexigavin3745 DID YOU LET THEM KARMA?!?! *MAD LAD*
Lol I remember when this song came out, I was celebrating my birthday the day it came out and I remember I was going through a lot that year and y'all's music made me so happy! I remember running up to my mom and saying "AJR MADE A SONG ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!" and we played it at my party and everything lol, love y'all!
Wow that's awesome! Must've been one amazing birthday gift :O
Other Peoples dreams: "Omg I was dating with my crush in my dream"
My dreams:
Slowed + reverb of this song on my channel check it out,sorry for self promo,only promo I have rn:]✌
Shut up and enjoy this feeling... ;)
must be good dreams
I wish I had dreams with ajr in them, all i get is obamacopter
Lol
can we consider ajr the master of the “shifting instruments?” like when instruments become different instruments in a super cool way
Lol inventor? I don’t think so- they talk about their influences all the time. Jon Bellion is a huge one.

The fact that jacks hat stays on while he’s upside down proves it’s fused to his skull 😂
Yes, in the music video "Bummerland" they had to perform surgery on Jack
nah they just put a wig over the hat and then put the bald head on top of the wig on the hat
@@chasington5102 There was actually a story behind the surgery, it was said that Jack might not make it. Look it up mate
@@lexian2348 Oh my god, just looked it up. That's so horrible. So glad he made it through okay.
@@localdreamer13 nice pfp, memento mori my friend
NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I HEAR THIS SONG IT NEVER GETS OLD
Yes I was an ajr fan since 2 yrs ago
And yet each time you get a little older... thinks
Agreed ❤❤❤
I am a South Korean who will join the Marine Corps next week. My favorite artist is AJR. They always make encouraging songs and write influential songs. I'm always rooting for you.
Rooting for u to hope it goes well
good luck!
That's incredible, I wish you the best of luck!
Best wishes, hope it goes well and luck is on your side.
Good luck
If you look closely at the scenes where Jack is upside down, the painting in the background is a balloon, which symbolizes happiness. But when the camera turns and he’s just hanging, the painting is a tear. To me, this symbolizes that it’s easy to find happiness by living a lie.
Wow.
*d e e p*
This went fron 0 to 100 real f*ckin' quick
Here we have an English teacher in the making
My guy wrote a pretty ok intro to a thesis paper
didn't know my teachers listened to ajr

“I wake up and I’m not so mad at twitter now, living sucks, but it’s sucking just a little now” that line understands me

I know AJR themselves wont see this but.....
I have a really amazing friend who introduced me to AJR last few days ago and I already love it, it's so fun, relatable and so interesting, I personally love I won't, Steve's going to London and Drama and honestly they've done an incredible job, I know I'd never see them live but seeing such a close and heartfelt group of friends makes me think that they're still is good in this world, weather it comes in the form of an animal or an Adam, Jack or Ryan it makes a difference in our universe, our world and our community and I would like to say that you've done and amazing job and don't listen to anyone who hates or tries changing your music just tell them that you wouldn't, love you guys ❤️
Anyone else notice that at 0:48 Jack is literally wearing "shirts with the band name on it" a nod to Don't throw out my legos. God I love this band
They actually sell that shirt on their merch website too
finally, an anti-depression song that not depressing
look at like all of their songs, humpty dumpty, bummerland, and a lot more song by them, it's just kinda their theme
Yes
i can’t act like i don’t know, these guys are one of the only ppl i listen to
Hey come on man, the sheeps all die
What about maps?
Wait a second..
"I can't fall asleep, 'cause it's half past three."
I guess you could say it's Three-Thirty..

k, that's good.
Damn, that's good.
Thats a good way to put it
Man, this song hits hard if you've been through depression.
Me: listens to song
Me right after it ends: plays it again
Plz never stop making songs AJR
Or at least end it with with a Bang! :D

FACT OF THE FACTS :
AJR DOES NOT HAVE BAD MUSIC.
All those haters are too blind to realize what they’re missing
I first heard Sober Up and Burn the House Down a few years ago, and I've loved everything I've heard since I started listening to them.
@@cxiong21 those are exactly the same songs that brought me in, I cannot stop listening now
@@cxiong21 it was Weak for me
@@cxiong21 hhh I heard I'm Ready for the first time maybe a year ago and that's how I started listening to them
The temptation of turning on a VPN right now and listening is strong, but I’ll wait till the official release in my time zone!
I saw someone do that on TH-cam and I am fighting temptations
That actually works?
Nobody: bored
Everyone: Can’t wait to be “way less sad”after hearing this song
