i'm fucking tired of all the perks
i've tried nothing everything works

he slurs use at your discretion its been a pleasure stefan
head on like dead on like grey
death in your way not in my way i got my way
i was in my way crept out my way kept out my way
i'm on one like bae you're on your way way way way
i'm fucking tired of all the perks
i've tried nothing everything works

all the nights i don't die for you
wouldn't believe how many nights i ain't died for you on gp
not that i care i'd be a liar if i sat here claiming i'd exit in a minute
but i can't say i wouldn't i have my limits - เพลง

On some real shit though, this is actually the saddest DG song I've ever heard. It's hard for me to really connect with Stefan when he's all about primal emotion and anger and violence, and although he does talk about sadness quite often, he puts it in a light where it's only due to drugs or he ends up saying "but fuck it, I don't care" somewhere in the song. "It's been a pleasure, Stefan" hit me so fucking hard.
My point is, I've never seen Stefan as a human until now, I've only seen him as MC Ride. This is a man with a life, a family. He presents himself like he doesn't give a shit, but the same primal instincts he goes off of for anger and power give him fear and sadness. I like it.
Real shit.
I knew it was sad but damn nigga, shed a tear for stefan.
You're going to make me cry.. stop
This shit is sad as fuck, that bit "chant kill cause i can
this body by my own hands
my friends and family won't understand
so i stay in the end don't make none to me" is too fucking real
As much of a Death Grips fan that I think I am,
"My point is, I've never seen Stefan as a human until now, I've only seen him as MC Ride. "
I have to fully agree with this. This song is Stefan personifying himself again.
MC RIDE IS DEAD.
Listening to this while sitting on a weird shy Chinese girl's bed in a hotel. She's playing a PSVITA RPG and hasn't said a word in 10 minutes.
Ask her if she wants to fuck to this song.
you think that, but she's actually listening to this tune breh
sex?!
Great imagery
hit her
This song stopped me from killing myself many many times when I was 16-17, I listened to it after writing a note three different times and decided to continue on. Nobody in my life was safe to speak to about it so this band became my outlet. I still cry every time I listen to this song because I know for a fact I would be dead without it. If his lyrics are any indication I know Stefan is predisposed to self loathing like myself but I would hope he could know that I did not die because of him and his art. I’m 21 now
proud of you my friend!! much love
this is a very touching story, thanks for sharing. I'm glad you found a way to survive
keep pushing forward, g. even if we aren’t there, we’re still massively proud of you for sticking around. let’s keep it that way
It's not too late to reconsider
Beware of some DG fans throwing you ideas of reconsideration. There’s always wolves at the door. You’re doing the hard work day by day. That’s an accomplishment on to itself and maybe that’s enough to keep you going.
_there's no more beast to worship._
*go home everyone.*
Does that mean ride is gone? Since he's the beast he worships?
@@nevod. it means *_you_* are gone aswell, just like time.
Man I JUST got here, do you know if there are any demi/semi beasts around? I can't believe I missed out on this 😪

Death Grips is really starting to grow on me, it's a pity I'm like 10 years too late.
It's never too late, give it time and let it grow m8
To late for what? Now you can enjoy everything that they have made! And probably more to come!
same
It’s never too late. Music doesn’t have an expiration date. Some music may be more of a product of an era than others, and not really stand the test of time. Regardless, nearly all of DG’s projects have withstood that test and then some. Always be willing to go back and listen to stuff you didn’t get a chance to listen to initially
You're right on time, family
The best Death Grips song of all time and one of the best songs ever

Derrick Stefano I MISSS YOUUUUUU
Absolutely agree with you, I use it for sound healing...I feel it as total catharsis and reset for dealing with life.
Derrick Stefano I SAIIID GOODBYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYE TO THE GROOOOOOUND

There are many times that the only reason I didn't kill myself is it would destroy my family. Those last lines hit really hard.
Verified Scrobbler Same here
This is the exact reason I haven't yet, either.
fuck the family
That's very unfortunate for the 2 of you ^^^ but it's still an extremely selfish act considering those who do still *care* about you..
All you can do is prove them wrong and fight.
@@seriousbismuth2173 it's not selfish. guilt-tripping others not to kill themselves is such an evil thing to do. they are suffering, yet they have to keep on suffering just so people in their lives don't have to deal with the inconvenience that some do not see a reason to keep on pushing and living through hell.
They don't use guitar much but when they do its FUCKING AMAZING.

what other tracks do they use guitar like this? i like it
I usually play music in the background while doing stuff.
When this song plays i don't do anything. I just sit and listen.
+Zefo No same man, I was skating thru the whole the powers that b and when this came on I sat down and listened to it in it's entirety. You can't just listen to it mindlessly, it's deeper than that, at least to me it is.
guess u got the point of the music video. interesting shit. feel the same about this
Wow ye also centuries of damn
Zefo No :-) It's fucking great. It's wonderful music like this is still being made in these times.
Yes, completely unique track. As powerful as some of the classic rock masterpieces
this is not ride singing
it's stefan
that brought a tear to my eye
why? i dont get it
listen to the lyrics
It's said to be Stefan's most personal song as of yet
this is not stefan singing
this is stefan rapping you silly billy
I used to be the type of guy that think "This music saved my life" type comments are corny until this music saved my life
Lmao same
When is it appropriate to use used and use
Still corny
if its gonna be any song it'll be this one
this music brought me to the brink of insanity
If you've ever been in the bowels of suicidal depression then you know exactly how this song feels, unfortunately
It hits your soul so hard, you understand the anger in this song, you get what it means when the drumstick hit the drums, when the guitar chord rings..
For me, this song sounds like a manifestation of all your insecurities kicking you as you lay powerless on the ground
Real talk, I almost wish I didn't learn what the lyrics to this actually were.
Yep...
@@hedged-valley1148 god when the verses end and it's just Zack going in on the drums in the last few bars fucking amazing
Where were you in 2015 when DG went prog-rock/shoegaze and transcended experimental hip hop?
The same place I was when I first heard a DG track...
Honestly man, in shitty Chicago area about to watch the last 3 episodes of Cowbow Bebop on blur-ay, also very drunk and using a mac next to my drum machine, my god that whole sentence sounded pretentious...sorry I think these lyrics are just hitting me a little harder than any music has in awhile.

This may be the most triumphant song about depression ever. It's incredibly sad but also powerful beyond words.
As much as this song is dreadful and filled with sadness it is as hopeful as any song I have ever heard. Singing it like he’s being honest about himself and allowing to be ok with those feelings can be therapeutic in nature. This is a person that’s ready not to die but to learn how to let go of the idea of dying right now.
@@0412lennon It's so cathartic. The entire song is like the feeling of just getting all of it out of your head, just being straight up and honest with yourself finally after bottling things in so long. Only then can you move on.
The sound to me is just sticking it to everyone that ever doubted you, sticking it to yourself, to your depression. You could give up and die and be free, but you won't. You staying alive is defying the depression, forcing yourself to overcome it. It's basically a bitter triumphant way of staying alive out of spite, just to prove something
@WB that's beautiful man. Jam on
This sort of "depressing yet triumphant" sound should be a subgenre on its own. It's a very specific but very intense and real feeling and I find it a bit difficult to name other examples.
Hey. I hope you're doing okay today. I'm glad you're alive.
Same to you, brother. Stay healthy and noided

this song giving me hope
This is such a contrast to some of their first few songs, like "Beware" in which Stefan seems to be much more accepting of his crimes and desires. I feel like, personally, every album is an evolution not only in DGrips music, but their personalities. That is why I love the group so much and wish them the best of luck when it comes to both their lives and their art.
Well said man
Yeah i agree I think
Be careful not to mix up Stefan and MC Ride
Favorite song in their discography, it has such great shifts in tone and it feels so massive
Very great song. Highlight off the TBTB and Jenny Death for sure. One of their best lyrically as well.

The organ has a richness and depth to it that feels so powerfull
At 2:38 Stefan rests his head against the wall after his name. That's such a great moment.

I've never heard an instrumental like this, it sounds so grandiose while also sounding incredibly defeated, this song is genuinely amazing
Check out Elia Cmiral's soundtrack for Spec Ops: The Line. It has a similar melancholic yet oddly triumph sound to it.

See where you got me.
I kinda wish they continued musically in this direction, I hope they do at some point
This song's more like Nick Reinhart and Zach having a jam
The guitar riffs were insane, definitely hope they do more stuff like this too.
I think they kind of do in bottomless pit.
dangermann there are more guitars on BP but none are as sorrowful or rhythmic as on gp. I kinda got the same vibe on "no love" but thats it
I'm just saying they might be taking a step into this musical direction

"The music has emotional suffering on the darker and deeper side of what the human experience is like, but it's also a beast-- you could take a bite out of a bowl while listening to it. That's the kind of energy we want to project." -Zach Hill
I love these guys
@@petrichor04_ yea me too
Every statement that Zach has ever made about Death Grips has only added to the allure. They knew EXACTLY what they wanted to do right from the beginning and they just got better at it. These guys are the absolute peak of punk to me, and they speak to fears that'll carry over the centuries.

This song saved my life a couple of weeks ago
Keep goin', king
Head up mate. Dont let your crown fall down
We're all gonna make it.
keep your head up. it'll be okay.
first time?
This song really exposes the terrible feeling that is having someone care for you but in the wrong way. It's not their fault, but they're wrong in the way they care for you. They don't give you what you need, they don't treat you the way you need to be treated.
But still... they care for you, and that alone makes it borderline impossible to end it all. You're not going to end it all, not because of their help, but simply because of them being there.
It's a conflicting feeling, and I know it all too well.
no its about life being gay and not killing yourself because you are man enough to not put you friends and family through dealing with you taking your own life.
this totally describes my situation right now...thanks for articulating that
this used to be me
***** How did you fix yourself?
I like hearing stories from other people that are/were in my situation.
thats also how I found out about death grips in the first place, she broke it off w me in the first place and then we got back together and I broke it off. Being sad af I started browsing youtube and found death grips randomly and bam here I am long time fan. guess there was something good that came from the relationship
ok let's be real here this is one of the greatest pieces of musical art ever produced by mankind
no dude

I hope Ride isn't doing too poorly. This song makes me genuinely sad and scared.
Mike Kearney he’s not going to kill himself because he knows the severe amount of pain it would cause.
SoundCzech yes, that’s very comforting
september lmao
Mike Kearney ride could never scare me personally but I do get worried time to time
Mike Kearney you don’t belong here
"Phone ring too long" hits way too hard to me. I have a girlfriend who's really depressed and somewhat suicidal and there's been times where she's in an extremely dark place and she won't answer when I call her, whihc usually makes me think she killed herself or something. This is definitely my favorite Death Grips song.
So sorry. Stay strong and be there for her, hopefully she reaches out for help and everything works out brother ❤
It's a must to get her some help. And most importantly don't forget to also take care of yourself.
You shouldn't be with someone like that bro trust me
all the nights I don't die for u ;(
Hits every time

That is an ALTEC A7 Voice of the Theater speaker. One of the most well respected loudspeakers ever made. Designed for cinemas back in the 60's. Because of the dynamic range necessary for sound reproduction in film (think explosions or machinery or sirens for example) they were designed to handle an extremely wide range of frequencies from close to sub-sonic bass to practically inaudible highs without distorting or losing authenticity at any level. Accordingly they can handle contemporary music like dub step or techno despite the fact that when they were designed no one could have imagined that bass would become so pronounced in the music of the future.
They produce one decibel per watt and can be deafening even when driven by a low wattage tube amp. Like David Klipsch, James B Lansing believed in efficient speakers. Hence the strategy of using horns in front of the constituent drivers. The woofer at the bottom is situated in a bass horn. The hf driver is also similarly situated in large tuned horn. The tweeter in this speaker weighs more than the typical subwoofer these days. As a sound wave travels through a funnel from narrow to wide, it's height increases in proportion to the increasing width of the channel it is confined withing. The height of the wave or amplitude denotes the level or volume of the sound in question. By using horns it is possible to exponentially increase the volume produced by a speaker without using electronic amplification. Making the speaker more efficient and requiring less output from a power amplifier and thereby keeping unintended ambient electronic noise innate to circuits to a minimum. They have an excellent signal to noise ration in audio parlay.
Eric Clapton and Jim Hendrix both dedicated entire chapters of their autobiographies to extolling the virtues of these speakers. Getting a pair in the 70's was like a rite of passage for successful rock stars. They cost as much as a house back then. A castle and a pair of VOT speakers. This combination was the gold standard for rock royalty.
Of course film makers had similar appreciation for them too. Roman Polanski had a pair at his place in LA. The listening party that his girlfriend Sharon Tate hosted and that was subsequently invaded by Manson's acolytes was held in this house. Sharon and the folks invited were listening to the Beatles White album this pair of VOT speakers. On of only a handful of privately owned VOT systems in the country at the time. In the wake of the bloodbath that occurred that night Manson's minions sat down and listened to the entire album before leaving. The sound system was far beyond anything that they had ever experienced before and in combination with the Beatles it blew their minds (further). They paid fealty to the fidelity by quoting lyrics from the album in the form of graffiti written in blood. HELTER SKELTER was one phrase that they picked up on and then daubed on the wall with fingers dipped in viscera.
This tribute was not used by ALTEC LANSING to promote their speaker line for some reason.

is it weird that I think the song sounds almost triumphant in a weird way
I feel that. It feels almost triumphant in how much you've managed to come through. When I was suicidal, and listened to this song on loop, it made me feel like I was considering my whole life as some story, that this song was the credits to the movie of my life. That it was the triumphant end, on last hurrah before riding off into the void.
Pretty fucked.
yeah i agree, the feeling I get from it is that life is a crazy ride, both good and bad. Bittersweet but epic.
i don't know much about Stefan but i'd venture a guess that he suffers from PTSD or BPD, going by these lyrics and the themes of his past lyrics.
NO - ALL THE NIGHTS I DON'T DIE FOR YOU
many songs have made me feel that way.

Just the incredibly angry, exhausted and distorted delivery of the last line - “I’m fucking tired” - really hits home in the context of the whole song. There’re so many feelings drowning out one-another that become so incomprehensible that they can’t be described any further than a crude blanket statement.

Not to be a buzzkill, but isn't the last line "All the nights I don't die"?
@@sneezlebottom137Yes, it is. But there's also distorted first verse in the background that starts immediately after the last line
What I love about Stefan is how real this man is. He doesn't give a fuck about fame, and he hates talking about himself and exposing himself in the media. But when it comes to his craft he's 100% open about himself.

I don’t think anybody has noticed the organ that comes in at 1:31 followed by a much more mellow version of the melody is supposed to signify some sort of comfort. The comfort of death basically, since organs are usually stereotyped around funerals or death in general it would only be fitting. MC even starts rapping about buying a rope, as if there’s comfort of death. The song gets much more intense once he realises he can’t reach that comfort because of all of the consequences it would cause. Then the song goes back to that organ melody, signifying this is an endless loop of wanting death and realising you can’t have it.

The choice of being able to die when ever you want and leave a world full of false meaning and pain is ironically a complexed decision that will send back to self reflection and understanding the internal conflict within you.
spot on
It only occurred to me that not only does Stefan have a story to tell, but they all do, Stefan is just lucky he is able to sing, as its the most easily interpreted.
this is kinda a late reply, but really they've all talked about their feelings in their own ways. zach's solo career and his career with Hella let's him show his emotions through his ever-so erratic drumming. call me crazy, but the way he uses his drums conveys how he feels. and andy, I'd say hes the most mysterious of the group. never speaks during interviews. posts captionless pictures of himself on Instagram. even then you can kinda determine how he feels from how a song sounds, because when it comes down it, hes the one who orchestrates how the final product sounds.
@@levantist zach is the main musical head. Hes the main driving force behind deaf gips
@@bleghbleghinson that's beautiful.
@@archivehans I disagree
@@archivehans Nah it's Andy
haven't really seen anybody pointing that out, but it's worth mentioning how fucking fast Zach drumming from 0:31 to 0:43 it's almost ridiculous.
He isn't human you goober
practice your rudiments mang.
Knowing Zach this was probably not so hard for him too lmao
you think he might be double stroking or diddling that bc the snare volume kind of matches the consistency of doing that.
@@vaporghoul it's all single strokes, classic zach hill move that you can see him do live, look up Hella doing Been a Long Time Cousin live, some where in Japan I think, maybe from the Concentration Face DVD

I doubt anybody will read but, i am a beginner drummer who has been kind of teaching myself by playing along with songs, and ive played this one a lot, but one time about halfway throughout, and stopped playing, left my throne and just broke out into uncontrollable tears. This year has been very difficult, and death grips has helped me really vent my feelings.
Its been a pleasure, stefan

Five words that completely sum up a couple years of my life. Being depressed and knowing what I had to do to better myself with the advice people gave me, I just didn’t want to… I didn’t believe it would work. I wish I listened to everybody sooner.
This song will forever have a special place in my heart, hits me like a train.
Interesting interpretation, I always thought it referred to methods of suicide. Hope you're doing alright friend. Any fan of DG is a friend of mine

Man I don't know what would I do without Death Grips
Death Grips is one of the only music bands that so far, never disappointed me with their music
Usually I listen to Death Grips when going through any stress or just when having a bad day. Through, I listen to their music almost every day, because of how uniquely enjoyable their music is
Thank you, Death Grips for making my every day a little, or sometimes, a huge bit better
Much love from Kazakhstan
There’s this video on TH-cam called something like “Therapist Explains ‘On G.P.’ by Death Grips”
He’s the last person you’d expect to “get” Death Grips or give it a chance just by looking at him, but he clearly did all of his research and had a ton of appreciation for this song, its message, and its writing.
While you’ve got time during quarantine, I’d definitely recommend giving the guy’s video a watch, if you love Death Grips it’ll really hit a chord with you, and honestly while I was watching this middle aged Jewish therapist go over everything that works so well in this song and with Death Grips in general, it really put a smile on my face
Thanks for writing this, you convinced me to watch it and it ended up making my entire day. :)
thanks from me too. I haven't watched it, i'm just now starting a relisten while reading the lyrics and will watch this right after. I've vaguely known the gravity this particular track is supposed to have and have been saving it up for a quiet minute where I'm in the right frame of mind i.e. now. And it's funny, because, as unlikely as something like this seems, it also seems so fitting to this insane hyperreality outlook I get from listening to Death Grips, like OF COURSE there is some middle aged psychologist who totally gets this! It's just part of the incredible sort of logic defying things this group seems to bring with it, and as if I didn't have a weak spot already for wholesome unlikely things like some tidy, professional man just getting everything right about something as abrasive and chaotic like this, it's so much more incredibly precious when it's in regard to something as crucial as this particular song. Seriously, thanks, I'll dive into it now and then report back, I think I have something appropriate for you as well!

I'd say it's an post-modern avant-garde ballad. It's not about the pleasures of conformity, but a personal statement from the band itself.
is it, like, Death Grips' Stairway to Heaven or what
"Stefan felt alone in a world full of people who do not care about him. Those who did care were not prepared for Stefan in any way.
This desperation drove Stefan so far into madness that he met an untimely death.
'what are you waiting for'
Stefan overcomes his own death and thereby aquires deaths weapon, an ultimate confidence and certainty of being the master over his own death.
'Death in your way, not in my way'.
All the nights I did not die for you.
I still do not know what GP means however.
So far goes my interpretation of the text. I see myself in this interpretation of this text.
Thank you DG. You remind me of myself in times where I am at a low.
Much love to you guys.
On General principal
On Government Plates
On Gunpoint
on general principle.
the way I interpret it is "All the nights I don't die for you, on GP" means if Stefan didn't have his friends and family he'd commit suicide, almost as if it were general principle. he wouldn't hesitate, it would just be the default thing to do

biggestfanofroger song of ever
*I FALL THE FUCK OFF THIS WORLD*
Tonight is one of those nights.
This is one of the greatest artistic statements of all time.
Death Grips as a band has always made the conscious effort to stay at an arms length from their fanbase, not just as a personal choice, but as a core fundamental of their identity. It's tough to call their music impersonal, but there has always been an obvious wall between listener and artist. I would assume their writing has personal meaning to them, but to work backwards from the end product to try and figure out what these people are actually like is impossible.
So for them to release a song that bridges that lyrical divide in such an obvious way, after years of shying away from doing so, while also simultaneously embracing more conventional song structure, it's nothing short of a courageous move; they have dropped the wall completely and are letting you see right through to the other end. As a listener, this is not only gratifying, but it adds to their legend. It show's they are capable of being this authentic, but will never do it on your time. They had something they wanted to share, and that's all you're getting.
The importance of this song is verifiable by the reaction it has and continues to receive. This kind of outcome from you being personal cannot be achieved unless you've built up an association between you and the opposite, and I don't think anyone in any medium has subverted that expectation better than Death Grips.
this is so good thank you
great write up
I'm actually afraid of Stefan trying to kill himself, even thought the song ends otherwise.
Hes not gonna because he knows the severe pain he would cause
Why would he try to kill himself
What is your profile picture?
I remember the night this was uploaded. I was so excited that Death Grips had new music, but this song hit me like a fucking semi truck. I was not ready for such an emotional roller coaster and just such an amazing track, but in a way I did not expect.
at 2:17 when stefan tilts his head during the ''my most recent purchase old black rope, gonna learn how to tie it'' lyric, i felt that man
Drug misuse, loss of nearly everyone, deaths, near death experiences, reconnections; nearly lose my wife to an unknown illness, trying to get better, get cleaner, the withdrawals.. finally getting married after nearly 10 years together. This song makes me choose, life.

@furry Love what and who you have while you can. I'm sorry if my honesty was upsetting you or made you cringe.
The man I gave my cat's other 2 kittens to back in 2007, somehow won £108 million in the lottery in 2014. He now lives in a castle, with a massive lake and pedigree dog called Millie, and I don't know where my cats are which I was wondering about for the past 7 years. I played this same lottery myself, straight after he won it, cuz of my connection to him, and like doing stuff like this. About 6 wks later I somehow came up with what were the next set of winning jackpot numbers for myself. But in the very end I did not put them down in the shop because there wasn't a pen there, so bought Lucky Dips instead of retrieving a pen. I threw away £36 million and the occurrence of 2 Euromillions winners in a row, not just from the same town as e/o, but who share cats with e/o as well. Not good. Instantly I'm sucked into Hell on Earth, where I still am.. Had a stroke about a year later. Lost my world record video game talent that I had, which was my life. My mum died the week after my stroke, when I was in hospital. A bit later I get wrongly sectioned to mental hospital, put on drugs for schizophrenics, when I'm not that. Clever autistic I am. This evil crackwitch manipulates me in there, and robbed me bigtime when she stayed the night round my house a few wks after getting out. Stole my 3 best autographed photos of vintage pop stars. Including the main pride of the collection; the George Harrison. This impressive autograph collection was my mum's parting gift to me and somehow this has happened to it.
I've had quite the misfortune, and I'm still here. Only so I can sue the National Lottery's arses though. They owe me eternal happiness on Earth now, and is my job to get it. This is very tricky. Suicide would probably be easier...
rest in peace travis 2002-2020

I remember liking this song a lot when it came out back in 2015. It was so awe-inspiring and propulsive, and it felt like I'd been waiting for Jenny Death to come out for ages. Still though, it wasn't my favorite thing on The Powers That B, and I personally felt that people overhyped it a bit. I could appreciate the emotional vulnerability in the lyrics and the arena rock production, but to me it just wasn't as musically interesting as the first half, and after a few months of listening I stopped coming back to it.
It's been a few years now and I've recently been in the midst of one of the worst episodes of depression in my life. I was and still am having suicidal thoughts. A few weeks ago, I was diagnosed with bipolar type 2, which has a higher rate of suicide than bipolar type 1 and major depressive disorder. I'm slowly starting to get better thanks to the meds and therapy, and for some reason I've been going through music I used to play in the past. I listened to this song a few days ago for the first time in years and it just hit me like a ton of bricks, especially the second verse.
"my second nature chant kill cause I can / this body by my own hands / my friends and family won't understand / so I stay in the end don't make none to me / if it wasn't for them I'd make that decision on gp"
Having been so close to the edge with the intention to end it all and then finding refuge in my friends and family, I feel exactly the same way. Without the people in my life who helped me get help, I probably wouldn't be around. And just like Ride goes on to say, that doesn't mean that everything is better now, and that I'm suddenly okay. Living life is still hard as fuck, and when I have a bad day, you bet I'm thinking those same thoughts. But I know I'm not alone in the world anymore, and that makes me want to stick around.
Hey man, if you're still around, good job on this comment.
Hope you pull through, bud.

Keep going everyone, we can make it
I love how they put so much energy in the song and the video is the complete opposite of this
It's the point. It's great.
"I put all this work into my life, but why? What does it matter?"
My goal: Everytime this song gets recommended to me I have to watch it. so far I have succeeded in this goal.
im so glad to see this
this song is so amazing and deep that its too much to really sit there and consume without taking it all in, you either give it 100% or nothing, so I try not to listen to this cut much unless im really feeling it. does get recommended a lot tho
@@PKSkyler I mean that's really the one way you can do it. There's been times where I just wanna put Jenny Death on cause it's my favorite album from them, but once this song comes in it's usually going to be taking it all in instead of just partially.
