I'm a 57 year old bloke introduced to Lizzie's artistry via Alix Page this year and unable to stop playing her music since. Travelling to Paris for her gig from UK as all dates sold, so I guess the rest of the world are starting to find out !
@@jurelkirklandfilms2510 ugh, there are so many. I would recommend you experience her music as entire albums in one sitting, if that makes any sense. In this order: For The Roses Blue Clouds Ladies of the Canyon Hejira There are, of course, other ways one could go about it. This is just how I organically discovered her. Maybe just start with “For The Roses” and you’ll see. Keep in mind she’s unfortunately not on Spotify at this time.
Shes schizo this is so funny because women are all delusional so thats why this relates to them so much im dying laughing because theyre so pathetic AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH
i think its cool how so many people have different interpretatinos of this song. Some people think of it as a breakup song, others like me feel like its an anthem for hopeless romantics who live in our own heads because love is terrifying in real life
True! Like my interpretation is she is actually sitting in the car with this person (boyfriend, husband, whoever). And she’s remembering or imagining how things used to be and how he was and how he loved her. But then she snaps back to the present and that version of him isn’t real anymore.
It starts with staring at a ceiling, plaster... ends with you don't exist... In the middle, she can't remember the last time she was kissed... It's all in her lonely, longing heart and head
it’s always reminded me of falling in love desperately with a book character. “… but it’s not real, and you don’t exist, and I can’t recall the last time I was kissed. it hits me, in the car, and it feels like the end… of a movie i’ve seen, before”. 😢
I've said it before, but this song is absolutely tremendous. I think the production on the record is immaculate and so impressive, but the song stands up so well when it's just vocals and acoustic guitar. It's a masterpiece of a song.
This song was a cure for me during the hardest time of my life. Being in a position where you love someone who doesn't love you back and doesn't feel the same way, you start to believe things that happen in your dreams. You get so lost in those feelings that you start to miss the line between fantasy and reality- until it hits you. when you realize it's not real and the person you love so much is not really that person, you fell in love with a person that you mostly made up in your dreams and mind. It hurts the most when you realize that. To anyone who's reading this and facing the same problem- my only advice is that you try to bare it. There's nothing you can do. Things will get easier with time but I still don't feel "cured" from this feeling after all this time, but time moves on and so will you. You can do it. Good luck.
i sobbed and screamed to this song during my last breakup. it hurt but especially because it happened the week before we had planned to go to new york city together. the lyrics are just so beautiful and raw and real and hearing it acoustically is even more tearjerking. great work as always
Ceilings, plaster Can't you just make it move faster? Lovely to be sitting here with you You're kinda cute but it's raining harder My shoes are now full of water Lovely to be rained on with you It's kinda cute but it's so short Then you're driving me home And I don't wanna leave But I have to go You kiss me in your car And it feels like the start of a movie I've seen before Before Bedsheets, no clothes Touch me like nobody else does Lovely to just lay here with you You're kinda cute and I would say all of this But I don't wanna ruin the moment Lovely to sit between comfort and chaos But it's over Then you're driving me home And it kinda comes out as I get up to go You kiss me in your car And it feels like the start of a movie I've seen before But it's not real And you don't exist And I can't recall the last time I was kissed It hits me in the car And it feels like the end of a movie I've seen before Before
‘Five seconds flat” is the album of the year, and this is one of my all time favorite songs. The emotion conveyed by Lizzy is something you feel in the core of your sole. Lizzy’s fans (of all ages) genuinely feel this emotion and have responded with much deserved adoration. She is destined for greatness. There are things that can be explained to others, and things that can’t. You either feel what she is singing about emotionally or you don’t. It can be hard for me not get emotional knowing that the songs are about real experiences she has lived through. I do hope Lizzy finds the “love of her life” soon. She deserves it.
to me this is like the hopeful start of a relationship when you're hoping the person will turn out to be the one you've been looking for and the "it's not real and you don't exist" part is the realization that they aren't the idealized version of themself that you want them to be. The person is there with you but the version of them that you wan't doesn't exist.
ceilings is definitely my favorite song off five seconds flat. i remember the first time i heard it in the car i pulled over and just cried and then listened to it another 8 times until i knew it by heart. something about this song just hits me right in my chest and this live rendition is so fucking powerful im so grateful to be alive while you're making music lizzy. thank you
The ability of her singing is unlike anyone around these days. She knows when to be quiet and when to bring volume. She knows when to run and when not to. She’s incredibly talented.
Came across this song almost by accident and I'm genuinely stunned... This song has made me realise - for the first time - how beautiful it is that every time you listen to a new piece of music it might speak to you in a way nothing else has, it might become your favourite song, or bookmark the next chapter of your life.
This song brings back incredible memories for me ironically but seriously it's so fucking gorgeous #1 song I wanted to learn on guitar when the album came out
NO WAY LIZZY THE WAY I WAS JUST LOOKING A FEW HOURS AGO IF YOU HAD A LIVE ACOUSTIC VERSION OF YOUR SONG FROM THE ALBUM??????? What a coincidence. Please do mooooore!
OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS WHAT AN INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE. Can we please get the entire five seconds flat album made acoustically and posted on Spotify? I know that’s a big ask but geez you have such a talent and it comes out brilliantly in ONE way with all the production and brilliantly in ANOTHER way when it’s stripped back like this. Just in awe, well done.
Her voice is so special and the control she has of it is amazing. At first listen, her songs seem simple but then when you analyze her alternate tunings, lyrics, melody, arrangement…. The songs are so advanced. Amazing.
My soul just left my body, this is all I’ve ever needed in my life. I connect to this song on such a deep level and her voice and storytelling just makes it even better
Ohh Wow . Sweet hearted young lady. Your Aura has the strength of a fallen angel. Your voice Wow My my my. I heard a lot of music all over the world . This is one of the most touching and beautiful experiences to watch you sing that song, My goodness. I'm touched. Thank you
One thing I love about Lizzy is that she has somehow, the ability to touch listeners of all ages with her lyrics. I've seen comments from 65 year olds to 12 years olds about how her music has made them feel.. She clearly holds a lot of power in that blessed voice of hers. and this song is one of my all-time favourite songs btw
this song brings me back to the time where i started dating my wife back in 2005. downtown chicago, small apartment with few furniture, all night talking, cuddling n music like this kind playing on the back . sweet simple time.
Lyrics: Ceilings, plaster Can't you just make it move faster?

...Wow. Damn, this is powerful stuff. It's got me all nostalgic, thinking of all those little seemingly insignificant moments you dont realise are special until you look back. She's very talented.
the more I listen to this song the more I have deja vu of a feelings I had 20 or more years ago from now, but I never had listened to them as a song at that time, ...which now I can ...thank you.
I felt like this song could of been longer the ending of the songs leaves me wanting to hear that part again and the Chorus. Wish there was an extended version love her voice ❤

'Older', the new album, out now!
lizzymcalpine.lnk.to/OlderAlbum
She sounds exactly like she does on the recording. Which means she’s ultra talented.
nah she sounds better here than on the recording this is so good
SUPERIOR
She’s just a real artist unlike everything you hear these days
@@jaketorpepper-king3930 there are more "real artists" today than ever before
I believe she went to school for that.. discovered her with maro singing Hey Ma and her run was /immaculate/
THE “BUT ITS NOT REAL” was mesmerizing
left me shook
passed away
Had me almost crying ngl
It sends me to outer space
got me fucked uppp
Ceilings is one of my all time favourite... I can't even describe how much I can relate to this song and HOW WELL IT IS WRITTEN LIKE DAMN
FR BRO
She went to Berklee and studied Songwriting… it definitely shows, she’s really good at writing.
@@pjhill5452well music not songwriting but I get you
same girl sameeee❤❤❤❤
This is well-written?
dude her range and the way she seamlessly switches between chest and head voice is so incredible
fr! she does it so clean and effortless
Can you explain what this means? I've never been able to understand it

We need MORE acoustic versions. They are just a delight
Strongly agree on thiss, it's just lovely
I got to see her in Nashville. It was all acoustic and it was amazing.
@@leiffrazier8480 ohhh opening for Dodie? what I'd give to be in one of those shows! sadly I'm far away in South America
@@AleTrosman Yeah it was. It was such a great experience Ticket Master messed up our seats and comped us front row seats. It's definitely in my top 3.
I could never agree more
Ok, I’m a 45 year old Dad…I’m not ashamed to say that I love the music that Lizzy makes. I really can’t explain it but she’s reaching into my soul with this stuff. I can’t remember that happening since the first time I heard Joni Mitchell. She deserves way more recognition than she gets. I have no doubt that someday ..the rest of the world will find out what they’re missing.
I really get that Joni Mitchell reference, John, though obviously Lizzy is unique.

Travelling to Paris for her gig from UK as all dates sold, so I guess the rest of the world are starting to find out !
I'm 23 and I discovered joni when I was 11 and until lizzy I hadn't heard anyone who I thought could compare
What are some of your favorite Joni songs? The way you’re talking about her, I wanna start listening.
@@jurelkirklandfilms2510 ugh, there are so many. I would recommend you experience her music as entire albums in one sitting, if that makes any sense. In this order:
For The Roses
Blue
Clouds
Ladies of the Canyon
Hejira

Try being 72+
You are correct sir
“but it’s not real, and you don’t exist” hits so hard🥺🥺
Shes schizo this is so funny because women are all delusional so thats why this relates to them so much im dying laughing because theyre so pathetic AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH
hard AF

original version hits differently
I've said it before, but this song is absolutely tremendous. I think the production on the record is immaculate and so impressive, but the song stands up so well when it's just vocals and acoustic guitar. It's a masterpiece of a song.
yes pls the harmonies is just surreal
Exactly...when a song can be just acoustic u know u got something great...she nailed it with these lyrics 1000% and the guitar
"I can't recall the last time I was kissed" - Damn Lizzy...this just hits different 😔
This song was a cure for me during the hardest time of my life.

Thank you so much, it’s been years but I’m still stuck on that “fantasy” guy…
This happened to me too
I texted him this song
feeling this
her vocal control comes so naturally
screaming crying, im in love with this song. and the live version is just, AH, beautiful, angelic, everything.
i sobbed and screamed to this song during my last breakup. it hurt but especially because it happened the week before we had planned to go to new york city together. the lyrics are just so beautiful and raw and real and hearing it acoustically is even more tearjerking. great work as always
I’m so sorry your hurting. You’ll get through it and I’m so proud of you💜💜
so relatable. weird.
can we talk about the fact that her voice sounds EXACTLY the same (and even better) as the studio version?
Ceilings, plaster
Can't you just make it move faster?
Lovely to be sitting here with you
You're kinda cute but it's raining harder
My shoes are now full of water
Lovely to be rained on with you
It's kinda cute but it's so short
Then you're driving me home
And I don't wanna leave
But I have to go
You kiss me in your car
And it feels like the start of a movie I've seen before
Before
Bedsheets, no clothes
Touch me like nobody else does
Lovely to just lay here with you
You're kinda cute and I would say all of this
But I don't wanna ruin the moment
Lovely to sit between comfort and chaos
But it's over
Then you're driving me home
And it kinda comes out as I get up to go
You kiss me in your car
And it feels like the start of a movie I've seen before
But it's not real
And you don't exist
And I can't recall the last time I was kissed
It hits me in the car
And it feels like the end of a movie I've seen before
Before
Thank you
There’s always someone who posts the lyrics for likes.

this was incredibly well said. she’s such a beautiful soul
This song is for us maladaptive daydreamers . Finally , something that describes the hell/heaven we go through
her voice sounds like soft rain, so comforting
Did anyone else notice how this song loops perfectly?? Every time I click on this I can't help but listen to it over and over and over again
nothing hits harder than lizzy’s live acoustic videos and this outfit
AMEN!!!! SHE IS SLAYING IN ALL WAYS POSSIBLE
"Lovely to sit between comfort and chaos" It's just beautiful

She has an incredible voice....and she is so young.
I’ve never heard this song but for some reason the way she sang it made my heart ache

this song strikes me in the heart every. single. time.
Seriously explains how I feel when I’m in “Love.”
AAAA this sounds just like all those acoustic versions of her other songs that she has on SoundCloud I’m obsessed
This song sounds only perfect in her voice.
This will be my most-played on Spotify this year. So happy to receive this acoustic version!!!
I love her
can you please come out with a fully acoustic version of your album!? The acoustic versions are sooo moody and I love them!
The power of her voice is matched only by the power of her lyrics. I am absolutely mesmerised by this pure talent. ❤❤
this song..... it's literaly... so good... i ......... it's..... soooo fraking good ahh.....
Ceiling feels like a fan favourite. For a good reason. This song hurts so good. Thank you for sharing this acoustic version with us.

the fucking LYRICS. the talent.
i rarely listen to songs on loop And i'm in a happy relationship but this song is just so gut-wrenchingly beautiful it makes me feel pangs in my heart
Marathon-ing Lizzy McAlpine's music before the release of her new album. Ahhhh can't wait
this is next-level songwriting, awesome performance and slightly mysterious storytelling -- go Lizzy
this is the best best best ceilings version in circulation
this is DEFINITELY one of my favorite songs from the album. it's been stuck in my head ever since it got released
...Wow. Damn, this is powerful stuff. It's got me all nostalgic, thinking of all those little seemingly insignificant moments you dont realise are special until you look back. She's very talented.
This has an early Suzanne Vega feel to it.
Lizzy's voice and delivery is sublime.
Timeless.
I'm so blessed to be able to listen to this
This acoustic version is incredible! I got actual chills listening to it.
I'm excited to see her August I think it's going to be a memory I'll treasure forever
I will never be able to put into words how perfect this song is in every way
So amazing in so many ways.
lizzy's acoustics give me goosebumps, i really enjoy these acoustics a lot
I literally listen to Lizzy all day. I think I’m in love with her and her music. :(
Lizzy your voice is like honey and your singing makes me goosebumps every time
the more I listen to this song the more I have deja vu of a feelings I had 20 or more years ago from now, but I never had listened to them as a song at that time, ...which now I can ...thank you.
Ceilings has become my favourite song of 2022!! I think it is in my top 10 of all time
my song forever
I am a crying wreck omg this is so beautiful. She is pure talent
We’re paying our hoa’s with this one 🗣️🔥
Usually not really into this type of music but DAMNNN she's good!!
her tone is insanely beautiful
When you played this song live opening for dodie before the album was released I knew it was magic. So happy to be hearing it acoustic again.
Just found this lady. Insane. So good.
I felt like this song could of been longer the ending of the songs leaves me wanting to hear that part again and the Chorus. Wish there was an extended version love her voice ❤
My heart omw 😭❤️
A rare live I like as much as the studio version. Amazing vocals
I'M OBSESSED
Lizzy's voice is so clear and breathtaking, her singing live literally sounds exactly the same as the recorded version (if not even better).
It's just so pretty it makes me tear up
Her voice is just soooo good
Love love love
This is one of my favorite songs ever and this acoustic version is everything I didn’t know I needed in my life!
