As someone that was born in 1982, I can attest that growing up in the 90s was everything this song imagines and more. The generation that grew into the internet but had a good portion of our lives without it.
It was a Transition of times . That's what made it hard as well as loved * nods * and greatly missed. Everything was so....Fleeting. Just as ya went to grab something, it was ending...
I was born in 1983 and we truly are a strange generation to grow up in. We had childhood without internet, the early days of it, and now the internet obsessed world we are in now. This song completely encompasses that experience.
I hate most of everything nowadays. '93-early'97 is what it was all about for me. Although, they were the worst years of my life, they were the only few that even mattered. Now, I am just hoping that the infections spreads quicker, and while everyone else is packing lunches or getting botox, or head down phone first-ing, I can simply slide from out my skinsack, and never have to worry about what I might think of Billy Crystal's son/daughter ever again.

the fact that Finneas does one-take music videos is so impressive. The artistry, choreography, and commitment to perfection is incredible and these videos are always gorgeous!
I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it a thousand more times: THIS MAN CANNOT MAKE A BAD HIT!! Finneas is just on a different level, and his word play, please don’t get the started on how beautiful his word play is!
Finneas already gets recognition but he deserves the whole world🥰he is beyond talented, from his voice to his writing skills, to his PRODUCING MA GODZ beyond wonderful✨
honestly i'm so mad i didn't listen to his work sooner, even tho i listen to billie all the time. just binged all of his songs, i literally can't stop. he's truly amazing, the instrumentals, lyrics and his voice is fucking sick
GAGAGAGAGA I just disliked my own face because I am unpretty. HOWEVER: I always like my GOOD videos however. No dislikes allowed where I come from. Don't be mean, dear misha

"When your heart starts to harden, lay your guard down in your garden" are the best lyrics of the album and actually my favourite from any artist in a while.. this guy's an old soul like everyone is saying
Finneas is so underrated, I know he's getting recognized, but for me, he needs the recognition as one of the best artists in the planet EDIT: I think that you guys misunderstood this. I'm talking about his solo career recognition. Obviously, I know that he's one of the most awarded and recognized producers nowadays
He's more talented than most of the male artists these days. He play lots of instruments, sings, writes, composes and produces everything he does.. i dont know why he's so underrated when it comes to his own music.
Because sex sells ... People love when artists sing about sex and clapping a$$ and trashing their exs . Him James Blake and Labrinth are really underrated .
My honest opinion of this song is that the lyrics don't particularly make sense or tell a coherent story, the use of jarringly obvious autotone (or is it vocoding? idk) is off-putting, and the production is average. If this is representative of his music, I can see why he's not getting as much attention as you would like.
@@SavitTheGoalie he writes better songs for her but can't make better songs for himself. That's why he's not blowing up like his sister. Billie's voice fits well for the songs she sings his songs just don't click well

The film Midnight in Paris explores the concept of nostalgia, and specifically how every generation tends to have a longing for an idealized era they didn’t experience while forgetting to live in the present. People in 20 years will be romanticizing this very moment we are lucky to be experiencing.
You said it well 👏🏼 People always romanticize their old lives before such and such happened or whatever. BUT you're right. 20 years from now people will pretend that these years were so magical.

I am 2004 born but there's a term Anemoia which means nostalgia for a time you've never known/lived. I really wanna go back to the times when internet didn't exist and close ones weren't connected only through phones. When people had real life and not social life, when music was better and made sense. Thank you for this song. Very relatable.
I was born in 1978. It was everything you can imagine and more, just wonderful. The good news is, you can still choose not to live a life through a phone screen, if you wish.
@@wildbird78 no everything has gone online and everyone talks on texts on the phone it's next to impossible to not be on phone When I'm having class, the notes are shared there and everything and covid ruined it to be honest
Thank you for teaching me a new word. I grew up in the late 90s and early 00s. I miss the time we weren't all stuck to our phones and screens :( Being connected 24/7 is so mentally draining. I forget what it feels to be truly relaxed and 'free': with just a few taps I can be reading the news, or looking at an old classmate's photo album, watching junk videos, or reading opinion forums... when am I alone with my own thoughts? It's not healthy :/
What I like most about Finneas productions is that there will always be a plot twist in the song. When you find out how melody works while listening, suddenly there's a BOOM and it improves even more. He always surprises me. I'm a fan of this guy.
I loooooooove the melody, the creative autotune in the chorus, the coreography, everything that made this song so unique and perfect! Thank you Finneas for blessing my ears on this fine Thursday evening!
there literally is not one song i do not like from your discography and i’m so glad you’re putting more and more music of your own out. it’s just so good!!!
Can we just take a minute to appreciate this genius? He made it possible to guide and make Bills 🥰 album and ALSO worked on his own album an music? This mann is literally so talented.
I love how his voice changes octaves in sound. He is so good at everything he does and needs to be recognized more. He wrote all Billy’s music as well as his own. Kudos to FINNEAS ❤
Everything about this just seems so deeply thought about like the lyrics are insane and so meaningful and the intentional autotune is just a cool effect that adds so much depth to the song finneas rlly out did himself him with this one
I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m obsessed with this song. I’m obsessed with finneas, Billie and their music and that’s all Ive been streaming for the past week
I grew up in the 90s and I loved every minute of it. I remember the day the internet was introduced and having it for the first time on dial up. lol The music and the social life was way better. I miss the 90s.
"...you could sign me up for a word without the internet." I share this sentiment. Some days I do actually miss that time when we all weren't so hyper-connected to everything and everyone. For me, I do remember living without the internet, or a computer. My family didn't get our first computer till 1995, and I do sometimes reminisce on the days when Hotmail, AOL Instant Messenger and Diaryland were what my friends and I would, I guess, use as our "social media" at the time. I remember when the internet was actually exciting and fun to explore. Now I just want to shut it all off much of the time. -- D.
Love it Finneas, you captured it well ♥️ The 90’s were my teenage years, I wish I could go back in time. I hate seeing the world, my preteen son, is experiencing and living in. The difference to the freedom I experienced as a child/teenager, are like 2 different worlds. This song captures it well, feeling nostalgic now.
This is like the peak of nostalgia that deeply saddens you, I can’t even begin to explain how often I have nostalgia that makes me sad rather than happy, bruh I’m so bad at being an optimist💀
I think some of my best times were also some of the hardest times between 1996 and 2000. I was in my 20s, moved into my own house with a string of roommates. Lived in a small town and saw my friends regularly. Then they started moving away, my family split up and moved leaving me behind until I could catch up 3 years later. Everyone's moved on now, we're in our 40s, we hardly ever see eachother, if we're lucky we share a few memes on Facebook. It's so lonely now.
It is kinda weird to think of my own youth as what it really is, historically. Born in '78, my youth was mid 90s to start 2000s. And at the time we didn't really grasp how enormously groundbreaking everything was. The internet was creeping up on us, but was still mainly a source of information, and not the social foundation it later became. I don't romanticize those times, though. It had its own problems. But when I think of my youth as being part of probably the biggest and fastest shift in how the world functions, it really is strange to have memories from both before and after this transition. Especially because it really is hard, even for me, to imagine having being cut off from information and relations as soon as I left my home. When I stood on a street alone, I really was alone. And when I got lost, I really was lost. If I got out of touch with my friends while we were out, I just didn't find them again, and had to accept that... But. People treated each other horribly. Lots of bullying, lots of wars (Many more world conflicts than today). Racism was a LOT worse. The world IS better on almost any parameter you chose measure on. And while the last 10 years has seen a new kind of intolerance grow, we do treat each other a lot better now, and accept our minorities more gracefully. As a teacher of people in their twenties, I see so many people dressed and presenting themselves in daring and creative ways that would have gotten them immediately destroyed had it been the 90s. I wish for the future to end the polarization of groups, and for social platforms to take more responsibility in getting their algorithms functioning. They divide us. And I hope everybody stops being so damn afraid about the future. I hope we figure out why our young ones are so damn sad and broken. It breaks my hard to see how many people have lost sight of their own role to play. And I hope the "moral elite" will find more productive, less divisive, methods to change the world. Don't look back at the 90s for answers, look to the future. We were screwed up in different but just as intolerable ways. And the internet CAN be the best thing that ever brought the world closer together, if we stop walling ourselves into our little echo chambers.
90's was first complete decade of my life, because I was born at May 23th, 1985. I'm true Millenial (Generation Y) and really missing for these times. I really want to get certain album from 1998. This is sole self-titled solo album of Mark Hollis, former leader (already deceased) of 80s synthpop band Talk Talk. This is the most anticommercial album released by commercial label (in 90s for Polydor recorded duo Lighthouse Family and boyband Boyzone), because is exprerimental, entirely accoustic jazz-like music with windwoods. Album was released at February 2nd, 1998.
the talent it takes to paint a perfect picture with everything in this song is immense. from the slightest word choice to the undertones of the instrumental and audio mixing, to the incredibly illustrative images to accompany the song. Incredible! i wanna work with FINNEAS one day, you’re sonics are insane!
Ive been working as a nurse in a covid ICU since the beginning of the pandemic, and Finneas music is truly one of the few things that can make me relax and let go of it all. Thank you
@@dragonfly5665q he says “I know that everyone romanticized it. But you can sign me up for a world without the internet”. He also says “I think about the 90’s when I was not a problem yet”. He’s not saying he wants to go BACK bc he himself never experienced the 90’s. But he does wish he existed in that timeframe with no social media and no crazed fans hunting him down.

Things I love about finneas's music: lyrical genius, doesn't write just a ton of romantic love songs, he changes up his style and tries new things

Lyrics:
Sometimes I think about the 90s
I know that everyone romanticized it
But you could sign me up
For a world without the internet
I hate how easy they can find me
Just by looking up my mom’s address
I think about the 90s
When I was not a problem yet
[Chorus]
All the time I should’ve been so happy I was here
Wasting it on worrying, just made it disappear
Now my head feels so heavy
I’m left holding up the levee
Feels so foreign, I’m already home
[Verse 2]
I think about the 90s
When the future was a testament
To something beautiful and shiny, now
We’re only countin’ down the time that’s left
With everything behind me
I wonder how much of it I’ll forget
I think about the 90s
When I think about what I regret
[Chorus]
All the time I should’ve been so happy I was here
Wasting it on worrying, just made it disappear
Now my head feels so heavy
I’m left holding up the levee
Feels so foreign, I’m already home
When your heart starts to harden
Lay your guard down in your garden
Same backyard, but we are not home
[Bridge]
Sometimes I think about the
Sometimes I think about the
[Chorus]
All the time I should’ve been so happy I was here
Wasting it on worrying, just made it disappear

i deleted instagram yesterday because i'm going through a bad time and i wanted to be alone. i was sooo happy to see this notification today because the only thing that really does me good is you and your songs. if i can go abroad one day, the first thing i do is to come to your concert and sing those songs that made me cry with a smile. i love you
@whisper of the heart thank you sooo much, sweetie!! i hope all goes well. take care of yourself too and do you mind if i ask your name? because this comment made me really happy and i want to remember it. thank you again hun
Take as much time for yourself as you need, social media can wait and is not going anywhere if you ever want it back. YOU are important!!
@@tabitha8250 i'm really gonna cry rn, thank you so much. sometimes, people, you don't know make you very happy and that's what's happening to me right now. 🤍
Omg, i also deleted my Instagram yesterday, so I'm here for spending time
Sometimes I think about the 90s
I know that everyone romanticized it
But you could sign me up
For a world without the internet
Hate how easy they can find me
Just by looking up my mom's address
I think about the 90s
When I was not a problem yet
All the time I should've been so happy, I was here
Wasting it on worrying, just made it disappear
Now my head feels so heavy
I'm left holding up the levee
Feels so foreign, I'm already home
I think about the 90s
When the future was a testament
To something beautiful and shiny, now
We're only countin' down the time that's left
With everything behind me
I wonder how much of it I'll forget
I think about the 90s
When I think about what I regret
All the time I should've been so happy, I was here
Wasting it on worrying, just made it disappear
Now my head feels so heavy
I'm left holding up the levee
Feels so foreign, I'm already home
When your heart starts to harden
Lay your guard down in your garden
Same backyard, but we are not home
Sometimes I think about the...
Sometimes I think about the...
All the time I should've been so happy, I was here
Wasting it on worrying, just made it disappear
Now my head feels so heavy
I'm left holding up the levee
Feels so foreign, I'm already home
When your heart starts to harden
Lay your guard down in your garden
Same backyard, but we are not home
I’m so beyond excited for this song!!!! O’Connell family for the win!!!

damn this man is physically incapable of making bad songs. Each one such a different story and vibe>>>>
I am 2004 born but there's a term Anemoia which means nostalgia for a time you've never known/lived.
I really wanna go back to the times when internet didn't exist and close ones weren't connected only through phones. When people had real life and not social life, when music was better and made sense.
Thank you for this song. Very relatable.
I was born in 1978. It was everything you can imagine and more, just wonderful. The good news is, you can still choose not to live a life through a phone screen, if you wish.
@@wildbird78 no everything has gone online and everyone talks on texts on the phone it's next to impossible to not be on phone
When I'm having class, the notes are shared there and everything and covid ruined it to be honest
Thank you for teaching me a new word. I grew up in the late 90s and early 00s. I miss the time we weren't all stuck to our phones and screens :( Being connected 24/7 is so mentally draining. I forget what it feels to be truly relaxed and 'free': with just a few taps I can be reading the news, or looking at an old classmate's photo album, watching junk videos, or reading opinion forums... when am I alone with my own thoughts? It's not healthy :/
@@yoshidababies4222 so true
yeah, same here
What I like most about Finneas productions is that there will always be a plot twist in the song. When you find out how melody works while listening, suddenly there's a BOOM and it improves even more. He always surprises me. I'm a fan of this guy.
This song is amazing. Gave me “I’m in love without you” vibes
No. This is so criminally underrated.
lyrics, melody, instrumentals, concept, THE WHOLE DAMN PACKAGE FINNEAS ILY
th-cam.com/video/luKRDxulwqs/w-d-xo.html short mixtape kesa h plz comment kr k bataiyega:)
I loooooooove the melody, the creative autotune in the chorus, the coreography, everything that made this song so unique and perfect!
Thank you Finneas for blessing my ears on this fine Thursday evening!
Anyone else has this song stuck in their head for like a month?? My brain even replays it when I’m asleep 😅
there literally is not one song i do not like from your discography and i’m so glad you’re putting more and more music of your own out. it’s just so good!!!
FINNEAS IS THE BEST PRODUCTOR, SONG-WRITER, ALIVE, a fact.
and singer.

PERIOD
dont forget charlie puth love
Bruno mars still alive
The 90's were magical. It was the last stretch of innocence and rose colored glasses. If you were there you just know.
Can we just take a minute to appreciate this genius? He made it possible to guide and make Bills 🥰 album and ALSO worked on his own album an music? This mann is literally so talented.
th-cam.com/video/mnq6L0qJPeQ/w-d-xo.html
I’m literally so excited he’s so talented
I love how his voice changes octaves in sound. He is so good at everything he does and needs to be recognized more.
He wrote all Billy’s music as well as his own. Kudos to FINNEAS ❤
I like this alot x
Hi!!😁
👋
is there a reaction for this? its fine if theres none 😍😝
th-cam.com/video/echCmkUQ0yw/w-d-xo.html
Finneas is releasing new music really often, and I'm proud that I'm here for it
this album is gonna be INSANE
IVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR NEW MUSIC AND NOW ITS HAPPENING IM SO EXCITED AHHHHH
AHHHHHHH!!! Same!!!
me tooooooo !!!!!
same bestie !!!!
That 'drop' is giving me major Hyperpop vibes and I adore it. Thank you Finneas for carrying on that baton!
seems like finneas and billie found the voice effect section….. love it.
Everything about this just seems so deeply thought about like the lyrics are insane and so meaningful and the intentional autotune is just a cool effect that adds so much depth to the song finneas rlly out did himself him with this one
The vocal processing on this track is probably the best I have ever seen in a pop song. That auto tune part is so clean, damn.
The production is crazy, literally ! This man is messing with pop music and we like it
Exactly
I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m obsessed with this song. I’m obsessed with finneas, Billie and their music and that’s all Ive been streaming for the past week
90’s! The golden years! Take me back please!!!
WOW! Can't wait to see him performing this live!! Amazing, he's such a creative force.
This is actually a f*cking masterpiece.
I grew up in the 90s and I loved every minute of it. I remember the day the internet was introduced and having it for the first time on dial up. lol The music and the social life was way better. I miss the 90s.
"...you could sign me up for a word without the internet." I share this sentiment. Some days I do actually miss that time when we all weren't so hyper-connected to everything and everyone. For me, I do remember living without the internet, or a computer. My family didn't get our first computer till 1995, and I do sometimes reminisce on the days when Hotmail, AOL Instant Messenger and Diaryland were what my friends and I would, I guess, use as our "social media" at the time. I remember when the internet was actually exciting and fun to explore. Now I just want to shut it all off much of the time. -- D.
Aside from dial-up, sure.
The snippet was so good. I know I'm gonna like this a lot. I can't wait to see you perform this song in November Finny!!
I’m going to see him in November too and cannot wait! Where are you seeing him?
@@ashleynicole2857 where r u!
@@ashleynicole2857 in denver
As a 90s kid who’s about to be 30 and is emotionally damaged, this song resonates and HURT SO MUCH.
"When i wasn't a problem yet" damn finneas why dont u go ahead and break my heart again
This is absolutely fantastic. An alternative album from Finneas.... this is about to be INCREDIBLE.
@@user-sj4ou6jc9u yes it is
Love it Finneas, you captured it well ♥️
The 90’s were my teenage years, I wish I could go back in time.
I hate seeing the world, my preteen son, is experiencing and living in. The difference to the freedom I experienced as a child/teenager, are like 2 different worlds.
This song captures it well, feeling nostalgic now.
NEW BOP finneas is so underrated, the electro parts are definitely nostalgic!!
love how he experiments with new elements and styles. that's what makes an artist extra ordinary.
several's times until I realized colorful umbrellas can be also FRIENDS reference which is everything what the 90s was and nostalgy
Favourite composer FINNEAS
favourite singer FINNEAS
Favourite songwriter FINNEAS 🔥♥️

Agree
Yesss
Agree
This is like the peak of nostalgia that deeply saddens you, I can’t even begin to explain how often I have nostalgia that makes me sad rather than happy, bruh I’m so bad at being an optimist💀
Optimism is overrated anyway 🖤
I think some of my best times were also some of the hardest times between 1996 and 2000.
I was in my 20s, moved into my own house with a string of roommates. Lived in a small town and saw my friends regularly. Then they started moving away, my family split up and moved leaving me behind until I could catch up 3 years later.
Everyone's moved on now, we're in our 40s, we hardly ever see eachother, if we're lucky we share a few memes on Facebook. It's so lonely now.
I love this!
Favorite lyric:
"When your heart starts to harden / lay your guard down in your garden / same back yard but we are not home"
Okay this is the first thing i saw as soon as i opened youtube and now i am so happy aargshgssg
It is kinda weird to think of my own youth as what it really is, historically. Born in '78, my youth was mid 90s to start 2000s. And at the time we didn't really grasp how enormously groundbreaking everything was. The internet was creeping up on us, but was still mainly a source of information, and not the social foundation it later became.
I don't romanticize those times, though. It had its own problems. But when I think of my youth as being part of probably the biggest and fastest shift in how the world functions, it really is strange to have memories from both before and after this transition. Especially because it really is hard, even for me, to imagine having being cut off from information and relations as soon as I left my home. When I stood on a street alone, I really was alone. And when I got lost, I really was lost. If I got out of touch with my friends while we were out, I just didn't find them again, and had to accept that...
But. People treated each other horribly. Lots of bullying, lots of wars (Many more world conflicts than today). Racism was a LOT worse. The world IS better on almost any parameter you chose measure on. And while the last 10 years has seen a new kind of intolerance grow, we do treat each other a lot better now, and accept our minorities more gracefully. As a teacher of people in their twenties, I see so many people dressed and presenting themselves in daring and creative ways that would have gotten them immediately destroyed had it been the 90s.
I wish for the future to end the polarization of groups, and for social platforms to take more responsibility in getting their algorithms functioning. They divide us. And I hope everybody stops being so damn afraid about the future. I hope we figure out why our young ones are so damn sad and broken. It breaks my hard to see how many people have lost sight of their own role to play. And I hope the "moral elite" will find more productive, less divisive, methods to change the world. Don't look back at the 90s for answers, look to the future. We were screwed up in different but just as intolerable ways. And the internet CAN be the best thing that ever brought the world closer together, if we stop walling ourselves into our little echo chambers.
Let's take a moment to appreciate the effort he puts into his music videos. They are all just one take
Lol Whooa
Yesss!! I'm glad someone said it!!
the director & the whole team as well!
Legendary
Hi😳
yep
this god is literally so underrated. im so proud of you and billie
I wish Billie and Finneas could do a song together
Like make the most baddest/coolest song together, as in
they both sing!
I wish they do...
In one Billie song 'I Love You' , Finneas also sung with Billie. Even though it was faint, but he was audible behind Billie's voice.
If I could time travel back to the 90's, this is the song I would take with me.
90's was first complete decade of my life, because I was born at May 23th, 1985. I'm true Millenial (Generation Y) and really missing for these times. I really want to get certain album from 1998. This is sole self-titled solo album of Mark Hollis, former leader (already deceased) of 80s synthpop band Talk Talk. This is the most anticommercial album released by commercial label (in 90s for Polydor recorded duo Lighthouse Family and boyband Boyzone), because is exprerimental, entirely accoustic jazz-like music with windwoods. Album was released at February 2nd, 1998.
This is prolific
From I’m In Love Without You to now he has never disappointed ever
Finneas is one of the greatest musicians of all time. The man is a literal genius.
FINNEAS IS THE DEFINITION OF PERFECTION.
The musical talent in this family is so necessary for this world.
When I listen to his music, I'm taking notes.
what kind of notes if u don t mind me asking ?
@@emiliadumitrescu340 songwriting structure, lyrical analysis & sound choices
one of the greatest artist of our generation
the talent it takes to paint a perfect picture with everything in this song is immense. from the slightest word choice to the undertones of the instrumental and audio mixing, to the incredibly illustrative images to accompany the song. Incredible! i wanna work with FINNEAS one day, you’re sonics are insane!
I love the behind-the-scenes parts of his mv's. It's so refreshing!
this is so gorgeous wtf
the set, the clothes, the props, the lyrics, his *voice* omfg everything
The way he randomly adds the auto tune sounds so good he's so amazing. ❤ I wish to see him in the future.
Finneas doesn't know he's making everybody's days a lot better with his music
Yes he does that's why he makes it

Ive been working as a nurse in a covid ICU since the beginning of the pandemic, and Finneas music is truly one of the few things that can make me relax and let go of it all. Thank you
Wow thankyou for your your services 🙌
Thank youuu for all you do, it's very appreciated 🤎🌨️
@@bellaurs6904 thats so sweet, thank you ☺️
@@fatdinosaur6845 😊❤️
80's and 90's the music, the clothes, the movies, TV shows, the Vibe! Omg...so happy I didn't miss out on it 🥰
One of my favorite songs he’s ever put out. Absolutely outstanding.
finneas: "sometimes i think about the 90s"
also finneas: IS LITERALLY BORN IN 1997 !!
That's the whole point of the song.
@@Mix2Fix wait what? how? he literally romanticized it saying that he wants to go back when there was no social media yet
@@dragonfly5665q I’d hate to listen to music with your awareness.
@@user-ux1vj9vx7s ok am confused
@@dragonfly5665q he says “I know that everyone romanticized it. But you can sign me up for a world without the internet”. He also says “I think about the 90’s when I was not a problem yet”. He’s not saying he wants to go BACK bc he himself never experienced the 90’s. But he does wish he existed in that timeframe with no social media and no crazed fans hunting him down.
