I'm 26 now, I discovered them during the black and white, self-titled era as well! (shoutout to the OG fans, I still remember seeing them for the first time in 2013 with all the big white rectangles on stage... what a time) Listening to this album feels like a sort of "full-circle" moment. In a way, this era in particular feels like the band and we as "older" fans, have come to understand and appreciate the concept of maturity or maturing. I get the sense that they are finally getting past the identity crisis that comes with living through your 20's. It feels as if they're encouraging us to learn to accept ourselves for who we are. It's about enjoying life for what it is, being honest with yourself, and the ones you love, and finding happiness wherever you're at. They've been a part of my life for over 10 years, and in that time I've come to really respect how they've managed to tackle pressing global issues and ponder life's biggest questions and challenges, whilst at the same time being so contagiously funky and hip. What I love most about The 1975 is their almost, uncanny ability to write what feels like the soundtrack to my life. They captured the edgy, angst of being a teen, they told the story of what it's like to be a depressed, confused, and passionately-lost 17-year-old. They nailed what early adulthood is like in A Brief Enquiry, the growth and experimental era of being 23-24 on 'Notes'. And now with BFIAFL, well, enough said. They're consistent, they're honest, they're fun, and they're incredibly talented. They will go down as one of the most influential bands of the 21st Century.
i completely agree Mitchell!!! so cool to see all the fans grow together with them and their music, I love that the albums are like different chapters and eras. Thanks a ton for sharing❣️
Being Funny feels like the most confident record by The 1975. They have really cemented their style, they know which was they can bend the rules and they know when to keep it simple on this record. The lyrics are genius, sound is beautiful, and overall I FUCKING LOVE THIS ALBUM AHHHHH
Wintering fan where u at? 14:00 Wintering means: the act of staying at a particular place throughout winter. Like birds wintering in a warmer place. In the case of this song, I believe Matty is talking about coming home for the holidays. Your description was on point 💛
I love the happier vibes of Being Funny! Feels like their discography is a lot more filled out or "complete" now with songs like Happiness and I'm in Love w/You. Oh Caroline is definitely in my top 3 fave songs!
Looking for Somebody to Love hits like a Killers song. Caution, Run for Cover, From Here On Out, etc. Adored this record. Plenty of tears and smiles. Couldn't have asked for more.
it’s really hard to pick a favorite because i’ve been listening none stop since the fist single buttt i think for right now it’s the last track when we are together… it’s just so beautiful
Ahh you're literally someone I'd be pals with!! Been listening to their music since I was 14/15 and I'm 25 now too! Your reactions are so wholesome and everything you're saying I'm like "YES!!" 🙌😍😂
Man I just found out about them in 2020 I was going through a breakup.. writing my own music and needed some inspiration.. woke up one Friday to check for new music because I love doing that. And I said “If you’re too shy” then Somebody Else came on next.. the rest is HISTORY.
okay you're so incredibly relatable; i'm 24 and got into them at 15/16. i was living for all of your facial expressions and honest reactions and jamming out. i loved your commentary, please don't apologize for talking too much! p.s. oh caroline is probably my favorite from the album so far, i cried like a baby the first time i heard it. more specifically i started crying during looking for somebody (to love) and it was off and on until the end. incredible album, what catharsis :)
Also, I thought the lyrics in Looking For Somebody (To Love) - "but the boy with the plan and the gun in his hand was looking for somebody to love" was a callback to Robbers!! I could be wrong but it would make so much sense!! Either way, the lyrics are just top tier 👏 this album feels so upbeat and feel-good but the lyrics still cover important topics 👌 I can't wait to see them live again in January! 😍😍
honestly just clicked the video to see how you’ll react to Oh Caroline and About You as I have listened to the album 4 times now. Was not disappointed 😁
When they began dropping their new songs and „part of the band“ came out, I was kinda disappointed because I wasn’t feeling the track as much as I hoped I would. Then they showed us some clips from „happiness“ and first I thought it’s going to be the same style as part of the band but when they released it I was IN LOVE. That’s the kind of sound I wish they would produce more. That’s the typical „the 1975“ sound in my opinion - Kind of a signature sound - same with „I’m in love with you“ and „ oh Caroline“ - Caroline is my fave so far. Even though I thought u can’t top happiness, they just did 👀😌 I‘m from Germany and wanted to go to their concert in Munich, but then Covid showed up.. I hope they will add more tour dates for Europe 🥲🙏🏻
I LOVED YOUR REACTION❤️✨❤️✨❤️ And I love. I’m in love with you, and I don’t think that you appreciate that bc of your relationship (well idk but) I’m aromantic and asexual and not interested at all in relationships but THAT SONG IS ONE OF MY FAVS AND I CAN APPRECIATE SOMEONE SAYING I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU BC IS SO POWERFUL AND INTIMIDATING USING *THOSE* WORDS and I love people being honest and raw idk
I'm almost 30 years old and your reaction to the intro track was pretty much identical to mine when I first heard it 😂 I did a remix of "If You're Too Shy" on my channel, would love it if you checked it out!

LETS CHAT 🙌🏽
please do on hit the ground by Justin Bieber please 2 🥺
Best songwriting in modern music ❤
oh caroline is my favourite by far. not only relatable but his voice is so good
Yessss the vocals 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
well it's about doing drugs so.....
Relatable? You ok? He talks ab being s*icdal
Agreed!
my favourite song from this new album is about you is so amazing at number 2 is oh caroline fantastic songs
Wouldn't be a 1975 listen along without sitting in a car late a night. Love this and imo "About You" is easily my song of the entire year
My favorite too. It reminds me of Inside your mind, which makes it even more better
I'm 26 now, I discovered them during the black and white, self-titled era as well!

Thank you
I love About You as a follow on from Robbers, there’s so many little call backs to it and it’s just fantastic. The whole album is a masterpiece.

“And I got a boner” truly genius lyrics
Wintering fan where u at? 14:00

What a song ❤
Probably my favorite and most tolerable Christmas song
About you is the best 1975 song since 2016, about you is robber’s, Medicine and a change of heart all together
you said it so perfectly my god 😭
about you is the continuation of robbers according to matty and it feels like an epilogue of it
i also hear undo cuz of vocals
I love the happier vibes of Being Funny! Feels like their discography is a lot more filled out or "complete" now with songs like Happiness and I'm in Love w/You. Oh Caroline is definitely in my top 3 fave songs!

Ugh oh Caroline is one of my faves at the moment!! But I’m seeing them live in November for the first time and I’m beyond excited I can’t wait!
me too!
im seeing them live in Toronto too!!! this will be my first time ever seeing them and I’m so excited!!!
About you is the best song in the album and I got to see them perform this album live in San Francisco and it was amazing 🙌🏻❤
Ahh you're literally someone I'd be pals with!! Been listening to their music since I was 14/15 and I'm 25 now too!
Your reactions are so wholesome and everything you're saying I'm like "YES!!" 🙌😍😂

I’m going to see them live with my two buddies when they come to ATLANTA November 12
I remember watching your reaction to A Brief Inquiry years ago! So happy to see you back on my feed and growing with you as a huge fan of The 1975! 🤍
IM SO HAPPY YOURE STILL HERE WATCHING ME❣️❣️
okay you're so incredibly relatable; i'm 24 and got into them at 15/16. i was living for all of your facial expressions and honest reactions and jamming out. i loved your commentary, please don't apologize for talking too much!
p.s. oh caroline is probably my favorite from the album so far, i cried like a baby the first time i heard it. more specifically i started crying during looking for somebody (to love) and it was off and on until the end. incredible album, what catharsis :)
being 17 years old listening to this album hits different
Well I’m sorry if you’re living and you’re 17
Fr 😂 I’m 17 and when I first heard the lyric “I’m sorry if you’re living and you’re 17” I was like “ he’s talking ab me oh no”
i remember being excited for your reaction to abiior lol, this is so cool to see how long it’s been
Aw means a lot that you’re still here ❣️
About you is like a sequel to robbers I started tearing up 30 seconds into it 😭😭😭
by the way, you are gorgeous 💕
'Oh Caroline' Vevo live performance is top tier.
IM GOING TO THE TORONTO SHOW TOO!!!
ME TOO!!!!
About you, is probably my favorite off of the new album
About You is so damn good i can’t wait to listen to it on a rainy day in my car
Human too is one of my favorites... it made me cry😪
oh god i love your facial expressions 😂 id love to have a friend like you where we could listen and react to the 1975 like this HAHA
First person I thought of when they announced the new album was you bc I couldn’t wait for the album reaction!
means a lot!!❣️
Also, I thought the lyrics in Looking For Somebody (To Love) - "but the boy with the plan and the gun in his hand was looking for somebody to love" was a callback to Robbers!! I could be wrong but it would make so much sense!!
Either way, the lyrics are just top tier 👏 this album feels so upbeat and feel-good but the lyrics still cover important topics 👌
I can't wait to see them live again in January! 😍😍
OoOoOoOoooOHhHh didn’t think that, I love it
About You is actually like a continuation/part 2 of robbers!
When we are together is just PERFECT. Matty vocals, tho. Im so happy to have this band as my favorite 😪
This album deserves to win album of the year, if not album of the century.
I can't stop listening to this album, it's just SO good. About You is my favourite song : )
I watched your previous reaction, on NOACF...nice to see you again!
It feels like a 2000s coming of age movie where Matty is the main character and it’s set in the 80s
I’m fond of your reactions. Thank you!❤
Thank YOUU❣️
honestly just clicked the video to see how you’ll react to Oh Caroline and About You as I have listened to the album 4 times now. Was not disappointed 😁
I'm stuck between Oh, Caroline or About You for my favorite tracks.
I’ve been watching your channel damn near as long as I have been a 1975 fan wow 😮
Ahhhh so cool! I appreciate you watching me!!
Your facial expressions at his lyrics are everything 🤣
about you should have been the first single! love that song the most
When their album comes out , I just waiting your reacts😂 big fans tooo
