Honestly, this song is immaculate. Abandoning familiar singer-songwriter structure, forcing you to fall into the story it is yearning to tell. The lyrics at first glance are wayward but soon reach their destination when examined as an entire poem. It is when that gorgeous pathos of a string section begins that whatever emotion that wasn't explored during the verses gets codified with meticulous and visceral phrasing. This boy is 21 and has seemingly seen the world through a lens far beyond his years. This song is paint and we are the canvas; part of a perniciously heartbreaking but inviting album. A true talent.
When my uncle and brother passed away in the same year, I came across this song. I remember crying so hard after hearing it for the first time. There's something about this song that makes me feel like they're with me, comforting me, even if it'll only be temporary. This song feels like a warm, comforting hug that I never thought I needed.
I literally have the same experience. My uncle passed away in December and when he was getting sicker, I came across this song and I got so emotional. I still listen to it anytime I want to feel closer to him.
I just saw him live last week. His sound and voice were exceptional. He did not slip up once while he was playing the piano switching out playing guitars jumping around just pouring his little heart out sounding no different than studio except of course only better because of the live factor. Pure talent I love him so much
at 3:00, amazing how these arrangements always manage to bring me not only tears, but a unique feeling that I've never felt with any other song, the feeling that everything will be fine, it doesn't matter the situation, eternity is our way
*"growing older everyday,"* *"i feel at home when im around you"* this song makes me bring back every memory i had with him, even though my mind doesn't want to remember it, alexanders song makes me feel like its worth waiting for him...
My son played this song for me knowing I would love it and now everyone I hear it it reminds me of him. He just left for college and all I can thin k about is how vulnerable this time is for him
Your son sounds like a wonderful young man, hope his year went well. I have 2 grown sons both graduated from college and I shared this with my youngest who is in love for the second time and falls hard.
Rex really captures the feeling of living through the transitions of life with the people/person you love. He makes you feel how lucky we can be in life with the people we are with and how we can be better version ourselves not only for them,, but also for our own sake. While life happens and when your effort can seem like they're always never enough, all it takes is just a 10/10 album for you to be inspired now to make decisions you couldn't before because you never had the balls.

He grew into his own style so well and even looks so different from before. So proud of his growth, we all are potentially watching the evolution of one of the greatest artists to ever live. Lucky time to be alive
I love this song sooo much 🥹❤ ive been streaming on YT Music on repeat 🔁 with my ear buds in , at night lights off, 2:58 to 3:55 is EVERYTHING!🥰 That orchestra is healing in a way ❤
The way he looks up to the ceiling savoring the moment right there with the cellos and violins playing in the background at 3:40 really gives me the butterflies in my stomach.
seen him play this as an encore on his tour rn and I swear I was in tears when he said " hope this encore last forever" because I truly enjoyed every second of the show with the love of my life. I love you Shawn
He's technique in singing isn't technically demanding, so I don't think he needs it (unless if he wantes to) autotune. He just have a very nice timbre, but he really avoids high notes in his songs.
Dude, everyone uses it to an extent. Unless, it's live. Which it can still be used, but not as many do. That's why music sounds different live than in the studio. The only music that doesn't use it is classical music and any music before maybe the 70s or even the 60s
this song ..especially when that part hits after old enough to understand just gives me flashbacks when i was happy and everything and all those nice things it makes me tear up everytime i hear it and gives me chills cos its just so damn beautiful
idk if i’m looking into this too deeply but i like how the instrument players aren’t all facing rex meaning that there is no particular spotlight on him and they are all just doing their own thing.

This song explores the speaker's contemplation of their role as a protector and the uncertainty about its significance. There's a theme of a perpetual show, with references to a projector and an everlasting encore. The lyrics also express a desire for enduring connections, especially as the years pass. The speaker feels at home when surrounded by loved ones and reflects on the joy of growing older together. There's a recognition of not fully understanding oneself, with a hope that understanding may come in time. The song conveys a mix of introspection, longing for lasting connections, and the comfort of being understood by someone who knows the speaker's darkness and secrets. Really, a great masterpiece of a song. Salute rex!
I'm going to see this beautiful king in concert with my loving girlfriend. I'm so lucky to be in a time where we have so much incredible music to help make life worth it, and push us to succeed. Rex helps us appreciate life and deserves to be praised 🙏❤❤
it’s just an accusation 😭 we gotta stop completely ruining someone from allegation alone . It’s like the Salem witch trials lol let the Mf try and prove himself innocent first
2:56 before that last note until the violins starts gave meee shivers down my spine because I didn’t expect it. And I know this is a love song. But when the violins starts. I think back to my grandpa. He passed away a year and half ago, I think back to when he said I will be old enough to understand the feeling of lost. That was the year he passed away. I didn’t cry the first time, but I cried when I heard the LIVE at Radio City on Spotify. Bc it hit different. Thanks for listening!
I just think you are the most incredible artist. The journey you take me on makes me feel utterly complete. Like crystal shards of sound, every note just exactly where it should be and what it should be. Thank you for colouring in for us what we instinctively know to be there.
Don’t get me wrong this is my favorite song rn and it’s beautiful but Idk I feel like this is more of a funeral song in my opinion. Totally up to you 😀
i know that exact face when music becomes apart of everything you know and when you truly feel the music, I love this song i always cry ;( it’s so beautiful
I get goosebumps and tears no matter how many times I listen to this song. It’s so comforting to me. Thank you Alexander for sharing such an emotional and meaningful price with us.

Soon I hope, or as soon as I'm old enough
Stay forever, you know more than anyone, yeah, whoa
And it's you that knows my darkness
And you know my bedroom needs
You could blast me and my secrets
But there's probably just no need
Thank you
Thank you,good sir..
Thank u very much!
You forgot the "old enough to understand" lines :) no hate tho
Bob Bambo is it “odd” or “old” ?
always gotta goosebumps all over the body when the orchestra part coming
Agreed
trueee
ik it’s hella late. but it is a quartet
SAME
This song explores the speaker's contemplation of their role as a protector and the uncertainty about its significance. There's a theme of a perpetual show, with references to a projector and an everlasting encore. The lyrics also express a desire for enduring connections, especially as the years pass. The speaker feels at home when surrounded by loved ones and reflects on the joy of growing older together. There's a recognition of not fully understanding oneself, with a hope that understanding may come in time. The song conveys a mix of introspection, longing for lasting connections, and the comfort of being understood by someone who knows the speaker's darkness and secrets. Really, a great masterpiece of a song. Salute rex!
that “I’ll do the same” and “old enough to understand” am dying for.
3:02 is what u going to hear when ur body lifted as u going to heaven
Ahh always love this part😌
or when ur life flashes before your eyes
my imagination of creativity of animating contains this music
"MAMA! I DID IT! IM IN HEAVEN MAMA! *hugs while crying*"
Indeed
I love Rexs music. Even if he might be guilty, his music will always be a part of my heart. I really hope hes innocent though
he is indeed innocent!! 🙏🙏
@@supremecrackerr4687 neder doubt he wasn’t 🥳
This sounds just so comforting and warm.
When he said "the great protector, is that what im supposed to be" i felt that
it always give me goosebumps everytime the strings kick in
3:40 *blessed image of rex orange county*
Screen shotted so fast
This may be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard.

I think Rex has a way of singing his songs in a way that you feel like you’ve know him for years
Exactly!
That outro makes me feel like I’m going to heaven
Fr

I'm going to see this beautiful king in concert with my loving girlfriend. I'm so lucky to be in a time where we have so much incredible music to help make life worth it, and push us to succeed. Rex helps us appreciate life and deserves to be praised 🙏❤❤

1:24 this part is something else... it gives me chills, a piece of art
Late af… but same

steady beats paired with vocals and some other instruments, absolutely genius
I've watched 5 seconds and its beautiful
Molly imagine watching the whole thing then..✨🌸❤️
Fr
This is such a good song! I really hope this young man doesn’t involve himself in any scandalous activities!
YOU KNOW DAMN WELL- 😭
it’s just an accusation 😭 we gotta stop completely ruining someone from allegation alone . It’s like the Salem witch trials lol let the Mf try and prove himself innocent first
honestly i can’t help but still love his songs despite the person he might be until proven guilty
He is innocent now
The charges were dropped
i’m really considering sneaking out for his concert
Did you? 😂
nancy AS YOU SHOULD
Honestly, one of the best songs I have ever listened to.👌🏻😄
Absolute magic… the lyrics are magical.. wedding bliss kind of vibe. Perfect for a proposal
loving is easy, best friend, and pluto projector are my happiness.
Somehow some of his song sound better on his live than the original, but still love it!
ah boong lu yub
2:56 before that last note until the violins starts gave meee shivers down my spine because I didn’t expect it. And I know this is a love song. But when the violins starts. I think back to my grandpa. He passed away a year and half ago, I think back to when he said I will be old enough to understand the feeling of lost. That was the year he passed away. I didn’t cry the first time, but I cried when I heard the LIVE at Radio City on Spotify. Bc it hit different. Thanks for listening!
I can’t hear this because I’m in class but I can already tell it’s going to be amazing, love you Alex and it was incredible seeing you live 🥺🥺
The feeling when the orchestra comes in...idk it fills me up with great excitement and tears at the same time. Great song fr! 😭👌🏾
I just think you are the most incredible artist. The journey you take me on makes me feel utterly complete. Like crystal shards of sound, every note just exactly where it should be and what it should be. Thank you for colouring in for us what we instinctively know to be there.
I'm 21, and he's 21.
what the hell is happening to me, Jesus?
Jangtree everyone has their own path💀
@@carter_cam5532 lmao fr
Don’t compare yourself to others. You’re good! Just never give up.
Best part @2:30 . The guitar solo then comes the amazing orchestra. Beautiful
This song made me feel lucky to have heard it in my lifetime. 🇹🇭
Look, I’m not typically a marriage person, but fuck, if I was then this needs to play at my wedding.
i think this isn't for wedding events
@@nleosala Music can be used for anything :)
Don’t get me wrong this is my favorite song rn and it’s beautiful but Idk I feel like this is more of a funeral song in my opinion. Totally up to you 😀
@@broxtoncook1828 I see where you’re coming from, In my opinion it gives be both wedding and funeral vibes lol
@@grungy_ghoull1467 I gotcha. It’s such a beautiful song!!!
His music gives me the chills ... he sings with so much passion. He looks like he gets lost in his own music, it’s beautiful.
Man, this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heared.
When the orchestra kicks in I wanna cry it’s so amazing
I literally don’t get how can someone be so talented, I’m-
His voice always gives me goosebumps
This is shot so fucking well, holy shit
i know that exact face when music becomes apart of everything you know and when you truly feel the music, I love this song i always cry ;( it’s so beautiful
I get goosebumps and tears no matter how many times I listen to this song. It’s so comforting to me. Thank you Alexander for sharing such an emotional and meaningful price with us.
The great protector
Is that what I'm supposed to be? Yeah
What if all this counts for nothing
Everything I thought I'd be?
What if by the time I realize
It's too far behind to see?
Seventy-mil projector
I can show you everything, yeah
And we're on our way to glory
Where the show won't ever end
And the encore lasts forever
And this time we're due to spend
Yeah
Spendin' the years together
Growing older every day, yeah
Yeah, put your lights in the sky
I feel at home when I'm around you
And I'll gladly say again
I hope the encore lasts forever
Now there's time for us to spend, yeah
And it's sublime with you, my friend
This right here still feels like a honeymoon
When you say my name, nothing's changed
I'm still a boy inside my thoughts
Am I meant to understand my faults?
I don't think so
I don't think I'm meant to understand myself
Well, maybe you do
That's good for you
And, well, maybe in time
Maybe one day
I'll do the same
I'll do the same
I'll do the same
I'll do the same
I said that I'll do the same, yeah
Uh-huh, I'll do the same as you
I'll try and hold it up
Soon I hope or as soon as I'm old enough
Old enough to understand, yeah
Old enough to understand, yeah
Stay forever, you know more than anyone, yeah, oh-oh
And it's you that knows my darkness
And you know my bedroom needs
You could blast me and my secrets
But there's probably just no need
Can we take a moment to appreciate that he is only 21
Thanks to the algorythms I found hope in a lost world of continuously repeat beats and tempos plugged together with bars that make ones ears bleed, this is a breath of fresh 21st century air.
Thanks ROC my faith in humanity has been restored. Bravo!!! 👏
The last verse just sends chills through my spine. His runs are incredible!
This made me cry, this song always makes me cry but THIS. Thank you.
Pure Passion and Pure Talent.
THIS RIGHT HERE STILL FEELS LIKE A HONEYMOON WHEN YOU SAY MY NAME
3:30 actual chills everytime
