My 10 year old son absolutely loves this song. We heard it on "The Chi" finale and he instantly fell in love. He walks around singing it, says it "puts him in his feelings". Wow. Deep for a kid! Now this song is a family favorite!!!
In my top 3 best albums of 2015. And there were a loooot. I'd put "To Pimp A Butterfly" 1st, "Yesterday's Tomorrow" for 2nd & Leon Bridge's "Coming Home" for 3rd for this year. Nevertheless, Phony Ppl are the truth!
can’t believe it’s been nearly 7 years since this came out. Now I’m outta high school and working. This bringing back hella memories from them days. Gonna make me tear up fr🥲😂
Not to be mean or anything but there’s no good music or bad music, taste is relative.The only bad musician is bhad bhabie (Danielle bregolli) and everyone knows it

You guys fuck me up. It's like a drug. Everyone put in some ear buds, close your eyes, dance and just be. Listen to the music and feel it in your soul. If you're anything like me, you'll have the chills and the rest of the world is forgotten. Just you and this beautiful song.
This song is the soundtrack to my life. Idk about you guys but I found out about this song because I’m a hard core selenophile and my friend thought this song would be ideal. As soon as I heard it, it was orgasmic to my ears n lovely for my heart. Definitely underrated but So. Freaking. Dope. 🙌🏼🌙🖤
such a terribly overlooked group. there are a lot of groups out there that make the same type of music that are way more popular (Internet comes to mind) but these guys are much much better
saw y'all back in 2010 opening for Theo at the Brooklyn museum.... you guys deserve all your success. Keep going and Jah will bless your hearts like you've blessed us.
he did an opposite Romeo & Juliet lol J: O, swear not by the moon, th' inconstant moon, That monthly changes in her circle orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise variable. R: What shall I swear by? J: Do not swear at all. Or, if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self, Which is the god of my idolatry, And I’ll believe thee. Edit for simple English: J: Don’t swear by the moon. The moon is always changing. Every month its position in the sky shifts. I don’t want you to turn out to be that inconsistent too. R: What should I swear by? J: Don’t swear at all. But if you have to swear, swear by your wonderful self, which is the god I worship like an idol, and then I’ll believe you.
Found this song in late 2016, early 2017 and man... *it provided that help.* A song for the right mood. Late night, moonlight, sounds of suburbia or wildlife in the back. - Pay it the respect it deserves.

This is that sound we've all been searching for for so long. We found it, and its perfect, exactly how we wanted it, no biproducts
Your comment is relevant to not only the song but also to who we think about when we listen to it.

You know you have a good taste in music when you watching this video and Solange, Anderson Paak, Tom Mistch, and Childish Gambino is recommended below
Dani Turnr but do you got some playlist though?
mine has Kali Uchis, FKJ, Noname, Haiyatus kaiyote, GoldLink and Gambino. love me some Paak tho
Not to be mean or anything but there’s no good music or bad music, taste is relative.The only bad musician is bhad bhabie (Danielle bregolli) and everyone knows it
mine has goldlink, anderson paak, jungle, masego, l'indecis and steve lacy
@@simonfleischhauer7948 lmao
The guy rapping giving me serious J.Cole vibes. This group is disgustingly underrated.
i need The Internet and Phony PPL to collab asap.
Allie Jenkins omg imagine if they performed each other's songs together for like 3 hours with solos incorporated into each song if possible.😱🔥
they have only live
Allie Jenkins IKR!!
Allie Jenkins yeah that would be so cool!
we need it nowwwwww
[Intro: Elbee Thrie]
Real love's so hard to find
Just when you think you've found it
The illusions in your eyes
[Verse 1: Elbee Thrie]
That's why I love the moon
Every night it's there for you
It's constant
Unlike these human beings
Who lie about what it seems to be
You think the earth is where you stand
You're in the palm of someone's hand
And that's why I love the moon
'Cause it's always there for me
Every night up out my window
And that's why I love the moon
'Cause it's always there for me
Every single night I look outside
It's right there for me
And my mind
And that's why I love the moon, yeah
Because people can consume my love
In the wrong way
So I send it up
At night, at night, at night
[Chorus: Elbee Thrie]
Real love's so hard to find
Just when you think you've found it
The illusions in your eyes, it blinds
So be careful where you look for love, ohh
Just be careful where you look for love, ohh
Real love's so hard to find
Just when you think you've found it
The illusions in your eyes, it blinds us all
So be careful where you look for love-ove
Just be careful where you look for love, ohh
[Verse 2: Sheriff PJ]
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo, that's why I let the moon shine
('Cause through the time I've been confused on how to move on)
I'm stuck in between what wasn't and what could be the truth, ha
(Still up tryna escape the demons in my room, yo)
You see it's no change droppin' we learn to maintain profit
And how could anybody else feel pain when they brainwash us?
And watch us every time we make exchanges (We slaves)
Locked in a box, we use our mind just to escape all the same shit
I'm tired of the pain
Love is blind to the flame
That's why I look up, never hide behind sky's when it rain
Promises cooked up exercisin' through denyin' the pain
That's why I look for ways find whatever lies in the rain
'Cause shit change
I don't blame my father for lampin' I believe that helped
Went from tryna grow as your son to tryna grow as myself
So understand it when I'm stranded, takin' chances
Know I need that fall
Flat on my back, you just relax and kick your seat back, uh
'Cause when you think
That's when you let time run and escape what your mind loving
That's what you think
So what you think?
If love was easy to find, we wouldn't need it to complete our lives
So
[Outro: Elbee Thrie]
Peace to the moon
Peace to the stars
Peace to Saturn
And peace to Mars

I've loved this band for over a year and of course, once I go up to college I can't see them on tour. I wanna cry, big fan from the Motor City
I just can't get this song out of my head over 5yrs more. and I want the vinyl of this album so bad.
why is this exactly what i needed and it took me 5 years to find it?!? THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING I EVER HEARD
This song is the soundtrack to my life. Idk about you guys but I found out about this song because I’m a hard core selenophile and my friend thought this song would be ideal. As soon as I heard it, it was orgasmic to my ears n lovely for my heart. Definitely underrated but So. Freaking. Dope.

that lead at around 2 minutes in is perfect. sits so clean in the mix.
awesome song this will definitely be walking down the aisle to this....
I think I may be obsessed with this song... the full version is even more wonderful... love it 😍😍😍😍😍
such a terribly overlooked group. there are a lot of groups out there that make the same type of music that are way more popular (Internet comes to mind) but these guys are much much better

J Dilla is proud 💨
OMG, where have I've been?
This song is 🔥
I'm literally bout to run through this guy whole catalog
he did an opposite Romeo & Juliet lol
J: O, swear not by the moon, th' inconstant moon,
That monthly changes in her circle orb,
Lest that thy love prove likewise variable.
R: What shall I swear by?
J: Do not swear at all.
Or, if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self,
Which is the god of my idolatry,
And I’ll believe thee.
Edit for simple English:
J: Don’t swear by the moon.
The moon is always changing.
Every month its position in the sky shifts.
I don’t want you to turn out to be that inconsistent too.
R: What should I swear by?
J: Don’t swear at all.
But if you have to swear, swear by your wonderful self,
which is the god I worship like an idol,
and then I’ll believe you.
I seriously love this song so much.. my pick me up song for life! ❣️
Found this song in late 2016, early 2017 and man... *it provided that help.* A song for the right mood. Late night, moonlight, sounds of suburbia or wildlife in the back. - Pay it the respect it deserves.
