*2:52** “But who I am is in these episodes, so don’t you tell me that it’s just a show...”* This quote reminds me of every show I watched as a kid. They all ended eventually, but they still shaped who I am today.
Shows can be a big part of people's lives, they can shape your world, embrace your imagination, and get you through the hard parts of life. Shows are more than just shows they are a part of our lives and memories and like everything they eventually end so you just have to enjoy and learn from them while you can then when they end embrace the memories and they will always be a part of you .
Sure, the lyrics are about The Office. But this song is so much more. This new age of media is what shapes who we are today. We are inspired by the ones on our screens. Who we are is impacted by who we watch. It's not just a show. It's the art that shapes our future.
As someone on the autism spectrum, this song is a pretty good way of describing how the media I've hyper-fixated on has effected my life in various, deep ways. I've never watched the office, but the idea of a piece of media being a major comfort&influence on a life, particularly in hard times, is one I can highly relate to.
I'm the same way. Gravity Falls is almost 10 years old, but I've still had it as a special interest all these 10 years. It really did end up shaping me, and helping me through my major bouts of depression throughout middle and high school. It helped me find people I've been mutual with for a long time, and I'd say, without it, I'd be a very different person. The show means a whole lot to me, so I kinda wanna commemorate it this June (as June is when the shoe premiered.)
I second this statement also being on the spectrum, I'd like to add how its not only shows but also people and communities online can shape how you act and feel.
I’m deadass crying. I relate to this so much. I started watching the office on netflix when I was 11 and just diagnosed with severe anxiety disorder and watched the office to cope. Seven years later and I still come back to the office almost every day, especially when I’m down. This hits so close to home. Don’t you tell me it’s just a show.
Eddie Spaghetti I have extreme anxiety disorder too and im 13 The Office is currently my favorite show and I’m in he middle of watching the whole show for the 2nd time
The thing is, the office doesn’t just feel like a classic show. It feels like a lifestyle. The classic sitcom “laughs” aren’t there, making it truly arbitrary, as Creed would say. It doesn’t just feel like a show, It feels like as if each character is real. Jim’s love for Pam, Dwight’s infatuation with becoming manager, Michael’s desperate attempt to find and be loved. These little quirks that built the characters, they exist within ourselves. It gives us something to look for in life. That no matter how many obstacles come your way, whether it’s another 364 days till pretzel day, a co-worker firing a gun in the office, or being in love with someone who doesn’t see you the same way, you know that it gets better because you are going to get hitched at Niagara Falls, and that’s what makes The Office unique. Being just a show, its part of us. Its who we are. Its inside us. And that’s what she said.
i found an edit of the office to this song (it’s actually a compilation) but i’m pretty sure it’s called “the office edits that are to hard to resist (that’s what she said)” and the first edit is to this song and it’s so good i cried. Also best of luck with your anxiety
So I had no idea that the office was leaving till after it was gone and this song makes me remember all the good times I had watching it and the bad times as well
yeah on new years i was watching it and it stopped me because its was January 1st and it was the last episode kinda made me die a little inside im so sad it left

“so don’t you tell me that it’s just a show” any show is not just a show. their are relationships, friendships, enemies, lovers, funny moments, sad moments. you just need to find the right one :)
IDK yeah but I guess he was excited he found out and wanted to say it in the comments even though most others probably knew, but I can understand why he'd do that
A couple shows I’ve loved that have ended in recent years: Gravity Falls: 2012 - 2016 Regular Show: 2010 - 2017 Adventure Time: 2010 - 2018 OKKO: 2017 - 2019 Modern Family: 2009 - 2020 Steven Universe: 2013 - 2020 I’ll never forget these gems, my childhood would not be the same without these. Also can’t believe I never found this song until now.
Criminal Minds, The Office, Law and Order, Steven Universe, Star vs. The forces of Evil, Regular Show, OK KO, Liv and Maddie, KC Undercover, Gravity Falls, Marvel, All are just a fraction of how many amazing shows that are out there. "Part of the journey is the end" - Tony Stark
The Office has been such an incredibly big part of my life. I am 14 now and I remember watching it when I was two years old. I watched the Office the first night I slept in my own bed, but still in my parents room. I watched it when I moved out of Pennsylvania to Virginia, when I moved from Virginia to Maryland, Maryland to Kentucky, back to Virginia, and I watched it when I moved away from everything I knew and loved to Colorado. My family watched the Office to keep ourselves from crying from exhaustion after my baby brother was born, and I watched the Office to feel better after I was rejected. We watched the Office to celebrate my mom and I moving back in with my dad after he finally got himself sober, and I watched the night before high school started to stop stressing out. Who I am is in these episodes. So don’t you tell me that it’s just a show. Edit: I am now 15! Thank you so much for all the likes and the love and encouragement in the comments💕 Now I am facing yet another move to yet another state. I also am finally on meds that I’ve needed forever. The Office and “Parks and Recreation” have been a big part of keeping me steady and grounded through those, and they will always be such a big part of my life. Once again, thank you all for the likes and for caring:) 💚
Holy crap, this is basically my life story but with different places (also my dad and mom aren’t together) The story will never be over, as long as we carry it in our hearts.
I have never related so much with a song as I do with this one. When my parents got divorced and my brother left for college, oddly enough The Office, and the ability to just laugh and forget about my problems for an episode, is what got me through. Thank you AJR for making such beautiful and relatable music for us
"who am I to tell me who I am" will forever be my favorite lyric. i don't decide who i am. i am an amalgamation of everyone I've ever loved, i am every piece of art that has spoken to me. who i am has been shaped by those around me, and that's a wonderful thing.
When I first listened to this, the Jim reference passed me by. The second I heard "paper company", I sat bolt upright, and as the song continued, a feeling of agreement and excitement and nostalgia kept building. Thank you for bringing this show back to life for me with a brilliant song.
Rafia Afzal sams when I heard him I was like it couldn’t be but then paper company, Steve, Dwight, and Michael were all mentioned and I was like OMGGGGG
I thought this song was going to be about how our lives are controlled by TV or something, instead it turned out to be a tribute to The Office and how we use fiction to cope with life and I'm so happy. I've only just recently discovered The Office, but it's now one of my favourite shows. I know that secondary school would have been much much worse for me without it and shows like Stargate SG1, Doctor Who and Agents of Shield. My parents think I'm kinda ridiculous to be so invested in something that's not real, but without other worlds to get lost in I would have struggled with anxiety etc even more than I did and still do.
This song really captures how I feel about most TV shows, especially The Office. As you watch it over the course of your life, you grow a sentimental bond with it. It becomes a part of the way you act, the way you feel. AJR has a special talent to capture emotions in their beautiful music.
I have never watched the office but I legit cry nearly every time I listen to this song... not even understanding what it is about the emotions are palpable
The show premiered while I was in 9th grade. I graduated in season 4. I joined the military in season 5. I lost my Grandpa in season 8.. I left the military in Season 9. Coming up on the finale again. Hits me in the feels so hard. DON'T YOU TELL ME THAT IT'S JUST A SHOW!!!!!

I don't know why, but I actually cried after listening to this song a few times, thank you AJR for making an amazing song about the Office...... I love you guys❤
Never have I experienced something this amazing in music. The Office was, and still is, such a big part of my life and to hear a song that is someones life in time with The Office is truly awe inspiring because I can relate with this song so very well.
Look, kid, everyone wants to believe they are "chosen". But if we all waited around for a prophecy to make us special, we'd die waiting. And that's why you need to choose yourself. Eda Clawthorne, The Owl House 2020-2023
"...if you spend all your time expecting the deer to run, it's already long gone. -a book i read But, truth be told, maybe the deer was never gone in the first place. Maybe, you were too distracted to notice, Maybe, It was right behind you Waiting. Maybe, they were right. It's the ones you least expect." -the next lines, on the first page
2:52 this line is so accurate, it's not just the show that's important, it's the lessons we learn, the memories we have, the characters we can relate to. As someone who has seen the office, this song hits different
This is my favorite song on the album.... relating life to seasons and series. Funny because that's how we remember episodes and songs. By the things we are going through when we are listening to or watching them.
yeah, but also season could be replaced with grades (crush in season 2/grade 2, filling hands with glue; her leaving in season 3/grade 3) "don't tell me that it's just a show" could allude to this as well. thought it could really just be about the office and just the office

Being just a show, its part of us. Its who we are. Its inside us. And that’s what she said.
I’ve been watching a show for around six years. It’s helped me through so much, suicidal thoughts, my aunts death, bullying, depression, bad days, everything. It just recently ended and I’ve honestly been devastated. I’m glad to know I’m not being stupid and that other people have deep connections with shows. I called my mom crying after the end and she just laughed at me. Hit me deep. The part where he goes “now the finale’s done...” really hits hard
Recently my grandmother passed away of Alzheimer’s. I hardly spoke and watched my mother cry. I was going through stages of anxiety. Everyone tried helping my mom and I but nothing helped. Then I found this song. This song got me through super tough times and since I was a huge office fan I understood everything going on. Thank you AJR for producing this wonderful song. Rest In Peace Grandma
I hate getting made fun of because of my love for this show. People who haven't watched it have no idea the impact it has. I suffer for severe anxiety and this show got me through some dark days.
I've heard some pretty damn good music this year but I'm truly blessed to be sitting here teary-eyed, pay my bed time, just to hear this wonderful song. Thank you for validating my feelings and bringing to life something that I struggle to explain to people on a daily basis. Movies, TV, TH-cam, art, music, they forget mold me and you guys have forever been apart of that. It may not seem like a lot to some people, but this sing is truly amazing, thank you guys.
i finally finished The Office tonight i started it when i was in 7th grade and now im a junior in high school it took me so long because i never wanted to finish watching, but i was forced to finish it because its coming off of netflix Britt, if you see this in the future, are you ok?
My cousin passed away a few months ago. In the days after my family learned of his sudden and unexpected death, all we did was watch The Office. We didn't know what else to do. We were confused, in shock, and grieving more than any of us ever had before. This song just embodies to me how we used it to make it through dark days. It's the dumbest, most cliche sounding thing in the world but the show means more to me than words can really say
The Office is one of those shows that takes the pain out of a person, even for a little while. I'm so sorry to hear about your cousin. I wish you only happiness. lost my grandfather while I was super into the office so that lyric where they say "my grandfather died in season six" really gets to me. I think anyone who has watched The office knows that it's more than just a show.
DUDE I KNOW, RIGHT!? And I have to miss out on my INLY opportunity to go see them live here in Indianapolis July 11, cause I'll be at my moms, and need NEVER let me go, unlike if I was at my dads... :( I'm legit heartbroken cause of it
This song makes me emotional. It reminds you just how much the little things matter on a greater perspective of life. Sometimes, it makes me ask myself, is all this living really worth dying for? Does our little marks, really make the difference we are searching for? But the big question I've never been able to answer, does the world really care... Because growing up, we don't realize just how fast it really goes. And for me, it goes so fast my questions about how to live keep piling up. Edit: Omg thank you all for all the likes, and I wish you the best through the rest of the pandemic :D
[Verse 1] I had my first crush in season 2 She passed me notes and filled our hands with glue And in my corduroys we'd walk to school I sat and crossed my legs like Jim would do She moved away, I was on season 3 It hit my heart so hard I'd hardly speak But I could find some peace and privacy A paper company to sit with me [Chorus] Who are we to wonder where we're going? Who am I to tell me who I am? Let's take it back and take in every moment Who am I to tell me who I am? [Verse 2] I turned down Jameson when I was 12 I spent that Friday night with Steve Carell The one where Dwight became the head of sales My eighth grade graduation wished me well I lost my grandmother in season six I watched my mom, she cried and held her kids My mind was broken up I couldn't think So I just hugged her the way Michael did [Chorus] But who are we to wonder where we're going? Who am I to tell me who I am? Let's take it back and take in every moment Who am I to tell me who I am? [Bridge] Wonder where we're going Tell me who I am Take in every moment Hold it close again [Verse 3] Now the finale's done and I'm alone I'm on a netflix trip here on my phone But who I am is in these episodes So don't you tell me that it's just a show [Chorus] Who are we to wonder where we're going? Who am I to tell me who I am? Let's take it back and take in every moment Who am I to tell me who I am? [Outro] Who am I to tell me who I am? Who am I to tell me who I am?
Even if its not a proper show, I cant help but think about Unus Annus when I hear this song, and all the memories I have from it. Memento mori, everyone.

This song actually hits me hard. I watched The Office with my dad, it was some of my best memories with him. After every long day, I could look forward to sitting on the couch with him and watch a show without having to worry about what would happen next, him holding me close. He also was the one to introduce me to AJR. Hearing this song reminds me of all those nights. He's gone now, but I still like watching the show or listening to the bands he played. This song makes me smile and want to cry at the same time. Thanks. Edit: Today is the anniversary of his death. Just listening to all the songs. Basically just leaving comments on all the one's that really hit me hard on this day. I don't really know what else to do.
@@bigmustang1972 Hey, not all of us grew up watching the show, ok? We all have our own show preferences, and honestly, even tho I'm a 2003 kid, I never once watched the office(I might go back and watch an episode or 2, but I'm just saying..)
this show, star vs the forces of evil, actually shaped and changed my life. i started watching it when i was 8 years old and ended right before i turned 13. through those years, i was bullied for liking the show and cartoons, in general, and i still am. but in the end, i’ve moved onto other cartoons and shows and embraced what i loved. then 2 years later, i started editing cartoons, finding a hobby i love (that could lead to a future career) and people who had the same interests as me. i had found this audio from a steven universe edit on instagram, which is also another show that i love that is also ending. so coming back here after star vs the forces of evil ended brought tears to my eyes. thank you. ❤️
I've actually started watching The Office after listening to this song. 2 seasons down, it's amazing. Thanks AJR :) EDIT: 3 days later, I am now halfway through season 4. Still amazing.
Billie ellish: *has ten second audio from the office in a song that has nothing to do with the office* Fans: oh my gosh she’s a big office fan Ajr: *makes and emotional song about the office that can be applied to any kind of tv show* Fans: lol whatever
“It’s over isn’t it? Isn’t it? Isn’t it? Isn’t it over! You won and she chose you, and she *loved* you and she’s *gooooone!* It’s over isn’t it? Why can’t I move on…” Gravity Falls. Steven Universe. Adventure Time. The Infinity Saga. Iron Man. Black Widow. Captain America.
When I was little, I would lay on my moms lap, watching The Office. When I heard the show ended, I was upset, even though I only watched it every now and then. Thank you AJR.
Bry Caught the RyeTM Same. I've tried to burn them out, and I can't. Literally, 28 years of my life and I've always burnt out good music, but this is amazing.

Two days ago, the greatest show I’ve ever watched ended, maybe it’s not the most popular, but it’s was The Owl House… I just finished the finale ten minutes ago, and bawled my eyes out to this song, the show spoke to me like nothing before, I related to it and loved almost every second of it, it helped me in dark times, and now the finales done, and I just listened to Netflix trip here on my phone, The Owl House was such a huge part of me and my life, so don’t tell me it’s just a show, to anyone else who came here after the finale, or any finale, all good things have to come to an end, but damn, I’ll sure as hell miss it.
The owl house was so important to me too the way luz acted and how it was hard for her to fit in and how amity was sour to sweet and how certain characters got the redemption they deserve or the karma... The ending was bittersweet but it was still amazing 💜
this song represents “the 100” and “the vampire diaries” for me, those shows truly shaped who i am as a person and how i see life, i’ve laughed so hard my face hurt and cried myself to sleep when my favorite character died (still not over lexa dying) but i’m glad i was blessed to get to watch these amazing shows and get introduced to these amazing actors and of course my idol, Alycia Debnam-Carey❤️♾
My head canon: This song is talking about when growing up (I think during highschool) they all watched the office, they talk about how sometimes they could relate to and stuff they went through while the show was airing, I feel it talking about the show helping them cope with everything going on. Thank you for coming to my TED talk😂 (It's just my head canon I might be wrong)
@@samuelcreighton7287 How did they misunderstand? The song states that you should take in every moment and keep it close to you while you experience it. They watched Netflix to cope with the modern day hardships. It starts in Middle school, where he had his first crush. She then moved away, and he was hit hard and started coping with The Office. It then states how he turned down Jameson, and then promptly graduated from 8th grade. When they reached season 6, their grandfather passed and it was devastating for the whole family. 'Who are we to wonder where we're going' is a statement about how you shouldn't always try to force yourself to wonder about what you could change in the life you had. 'Who am I to tell me who I am' refers to the fact that you should never force yourself to become one thing without the influence of life's push. Open up your mind for a bit, and let yourself take in this wonderful Interpretation that the user "Please Don't" made
this song reminded me immediately of she-ra which ended not too long ago, i grew attached to all of the characters and its plot and when it ended i was a total mess not ready to say goodbye to any of the characters i fell in love with, and seeing the comments here makes me happy to know i’m not so alone when it comes to growing attached to a show. thank you for everything you’ve done these last two years, she-ra. you’ve made such an impact now and it’s only going to get bigger in the coming years. ❤️
I'm not here for The Office, but I still know the sentiment. One of my favorite shows just ended yesterday. I still can't really believe it. That song helped me connect with some of the people I loved the most. It's not just a show to me, and it never will be. Thanks, TOH. I'll be sure to watch you again.
1 minute before listening to this song i searched "is the office on netflix'. i love the office so damn much and can't express how great this song is . watching tv shows is a routine for so many people and the way they relate it to certain life events just makes me love this song so much. AJR's lyrics in general are so real. The references to the office are awesomee especially when you listen to them through such a great song
Television will never be the same. So many shows lost. Steven Universe, Adventure Time, The Amazing World of Gumball, Star vs. the Forces of Evil, Modern Family, the Office, the list goes on! This song captures how many people grow up perfectly. Not enough people realize how much emotional significance a single piece of digital entertainment can carry.

This quote reminds me of every show I watched as a kid. They all ended eventually, but they still shaped who I am today.
Shows can be a big part of people's lives, they can shape your world, embrace your imagination, and get you through the hard parts of life. Shows are more than just shows they are a part of our lives and memories and like everything they eventually end so you just have to enjoy and learn from them while you can then when they end embrace the memories and they will always be a part of you .
Yes and whenever I reach watch those shows it brings me back. And it makes me sad that my fav show Steven Univers just ended
@@loki7831 yep I feel you I started watching that show from the beginning it was beautiful but now it's over.
This'll sound stupid but I feel this way about the Harry Potter books.

Sure, the lyrics are about The Office. But this song is so much more.
This new age of media is what shapes who we are today. We are inspired by the ones on our screens.
Who we are is impacted by who we watch. It's not just a show.
It's the art that shapes our future.

As someone on the autism spectrum, this song is a pretty good way of describing how the media I've hyper-fixated on has effected my life in various, deep ways. I've never watched the office, but the idea of a piece of media being a major comfort&influence on a life, particularly in hard times, is one I can highly relate to.
I'm the same way. Gravity Falls is almost 10 years old, but I've still had it as a special interest all these 10 years. It really did end up shaping me, and helping me through my major bouts of depression throughout middle and high school. It helped me find people I've been mutual with for a long time, and I'd say, without it, I'd be a very different person. The show means a whole lot to me, so I kinda wanna commemorate it this June (as June is when the shoe premiered.)

i CRIED
U made me cry, u fucker
You bitch now my pillow has tears all soaked in it
Instant chills all over my body
I’m deadass crying. I relate to this so much. I started watching the office on netflix when I was 11 and just diagnosed with severe anxiety disorder and watched the office to cope. Seven years later and I still come back to the office almost every day, especially when I’m down. This hits so close to home. Don’t you tell me it’s just a show.
Eddie Spaghetti I have extreme anxiety disorder too and im 13 The Office is currently my favorite show and I’m in he middle of watching the whole show for the 2nd time
The thing is, the office doesn’t just feel like a classic show. It feels like a lifestyle. The classic sitcom “laughs” aren’t there, making it truly arbitrary, as Creed would say. It doesn’t just feel like a show, It feels like as if each character is real. Jim’s love for Pam, Dwight’s infatuation with becoming manager, Michael’s desperate attempt to find and be loved. These little quirks that built the characters, they exist within ourselves. It gives us something to look for in life. That no matter how many obstacles come your way, whether it’s another 364 days till pretzel day, a co-worker firing a gun in the office, or being in love with someone who doesn’t see you the same way, you know that it gets better because you are going to get hitched at Niagara Falls, and that’s what makes The Office unique. Being just a show, its part of us. Its who we are. Its inside us. And that’s what she said.
Jack Krueger Exactly the Office is truly a comedic masterpiece
i found an edit of the office to this song (it’s actually a compilation) but i’m pretty sure it’s called “the office edits that are to hard to resist (that’s what she said)” and the first edit is to this song and it’s so good i cried. Also best of luck with your anxiety
Fiona Gill saw that too
this song hits different when the office has one day left on netflix
Also after it left
so true I am devastated because my summer was just watching the office
So I had no idea that the office was leaving till after it was gone and this song makes me remember all the good times I had watching it and the bad times as well
Ye
yeah on new years i was watching it and it stopped me because its was January 1st and it was the last episode kinda made me die a little inside im so sad it left
“So I just hugged her the way Michael did.” Why does this part make me cry so much 😫❤️
Ftfbgchggfghgg
I KNOW RIGHT??!!?!

THIS SONG IS ABOUT THE OFFICE I'M IN TEARS
It’s not just the office but okay
Ronan Armstrong Yeah it is lol
@@ronanarmstrong293 it is..
It has lyrics involving the office to get people to relate or understand what he’s feeling. It’s not just about the office.
The Sensible Dreamer No, it has Greys anatomy references in there too. It’s about popular Netflix shows, hence the name..
The Office has been such an incredibly big part of my life. I am 14 now and I remember watching it when I was two years old. I watched the Office the first night I slept in my own bed, but still in my parents room. I watched it when I moved out of Pennsylvania to Virginia, when I moved from Virginia to Maryland, Maryland to Kentucky, back to Virginia, and I watched it when I moved away from everything I knew and loved to Colorado. My family watched the Office to keep ourselves from crying from exhaustion after my baby brother was born, and I watched the Office to feel better after I was rejected. We watched the Office to celebrate my mom and I moving back in with my dad after he finally got himself sober, and I watched the night before high school started to stop stressing out.
Who I am is in these episodes.
So don’t you tell me that it’s just a show.
Edit: I am now 15! Thank you so much for all the likes and the love and encouragement in the comments💕 Now I am facing yet another move to yet another state. I also am finally on meds that I’ve needed forever. The Office and “Parks and Recreation” have been a big part of keeping me steady and grounded through those, and they will always be such a big part of my life. Once again, thank you all for the likes and for caring:) 💚
Holy crap, this is basically my life story but with different places (also my dad and mom aren’t together)
The story will never be over, as long as we carry it in our hearts.
This is so cute

PS: I love this song
I have never related so much with a song as I do with this one. When my parents got divorced and my brother left for college, oddly enough The Office, and the ability to just laugh and forget about my problems for an episode, is what got me through. Thank you AJR for making such beautiful and relatable music for us

"who am I to tell me who I am" will forever be my favorite lyric. i don't decide who i am. i am an amalgamation of everyone I've ever loved, i am every piece of art that has spoken to me. who i am has been shaped by those around me, and that's a wonderful thing.
When I first listened to this, the Jim reference passed me by. The second I heard "paper company", I sat bolt upright, and as the song continued, a feeling of agreement and excitement and nostalgia kept building. Thank you for bringing this show back to life for me with a brilliant song.
Rafia Afzal sams when I heard him I was like it couldn’t be but then paper company, Steve, Dwight, and Michael were all mentioned and I was like OMGGGGG
Your comment was so well written I love it omg ❤️
The exact same thing that happened to me
AJR+The Office=perfect
LilyLuna OMG YESSS
I LOVE THE OFFICE I DIED WHEN I LISTENED TO THIS
same
torificus SAME I WAS SO NOSTALGIC
When I heard the name Jim, I knew this song would be amazing.
I thought this song was going to be about how our lives are controlled by TV or something, instead it turned out to be a tribute to The Office and how we use fiction to cope with life and I'm so happy. I've only just recently discovered The Office, but it's now one of my favourite shows. I know that secondary school would have been much much worse for me without it and shows like Stargate SG1, Doctor Who and Agents of Shield. My parents think I'm kinda ridiculous to be so invested in something that's not real, but without other worlds to get lost in I would have struggled with anxiety etc even more than I did and still do.
I know “world’s smallest violin” is getting really big, but this will always be my favorite song by them
i agree
my first and greatest song ive heard of them
Same! I mean this and the worlds smallest violin and this is my fav. Although I mean… I wish this one was still big
cant beat this song man. Since 2017 this has been the best song ever created.
Agree, my most favourites song so far
This song really captures how I feel about most TV shows, especially The Office. As you watch it over the course of your life, you grow a sentimental bond with it. It becomes a part of the way you act, the way you feel. AJR has a special talent to capture emotions in their beautiful music.
I grew a bond with the middle over the 9 year period, and I got really sad on the finale
I have never watched the office but I legit cry nearly every time I listen to this song... not even understanding what it is about the emotions are palpable
Me:
*Doesn't have Netflix*
*Hasn't watched The Office*
*Still loves this song*
Its worth it to pay for Netflix and watch it
IcewingRainwingMewtwo definitely worth it imo

Same tho
Sammmmmeeeee! Its just too good...

Never have I experienced something this amazing in music. The Office was, and still is, such a big part of my life and to hear a song that is someones life in time with The Office is truly awe inspiring because I can relate with this song so very well.

Look, kid, everyone wants to believe they are "chosen". But if we all waited around for a prophecy to make us special, we'd die waiting. And that's why you need to choose yourself. Eda Clawthorne, The Owl House 2020-2023
"... so you don't tell me that it's just a show."
this gives me "love isn`t big kid, it`s little and quiet" vibes
"...if you spend all your time expecting the deer to run, it's already long gone.
-a book i read
But, truth be told, maybe the deer was never gone in the first place.
Maybe, you were too distracted to notice,
Maybe, It was right behind you
Waiting.
Maybe, they were right.
It's the ones you least expect."
-the next lines, on the first page
2:52 this line is so accurate, it's not just the show that's important, it's the lessons we learn, the memories we have, the characters we can relate to. As someone who has seen the office, this song hits different
The second i heard about Dwight i was like
"Holy sh** this is a song about The Office what the hell"
I heard Jim, Steve Carrell (Michael), Michael, and Paper company
so that's a lot of clues
Oh yeah we need the office on a Netflix trip
Nyaix The Wagon lmao
SAME
this line would fit right into the song tbh
This is my favorite song on the album.... relating life to seasons and series. Funny because that's how we remember episodes and songs. By the things we are going through when we are listening to or watching them.
Rowyn Oak it’s about the office wth are you talking about
yeah, but also season could be replaced with grades (crush in season 2/grade 2, filling hands with glue; her leaving in season 3/grade 3)
"don't tell me that it's just a show" could allude to this as well.
thought it could really just be about the office and just the office
Subconcious Rift that would be a cool “theory” if it wasn’t so god damn clear it was the office
I just made you read this why can’t it be both though?

I’ve been watching a show for around six years. It’s helped me through so much, suicidal thoughts, my aunts death, bullying, depression, bad days, everything. It just recently ended and I’ve honestly been devastated. I’m glad to know I’m not being stupid and that other people have deep connections with shows. I called my mom crying after the end and she just laughed at me. Hit me deep. The part where he goes “now the finale’s done...” really hits hard
:(
Recently my grandmother passed away of Alzheimer’s. I hardly spoke and watched my mother cry. I was going through stages of anxiety. Everyone tried helping my mom and I but nothing helped. Then I found this song. This song got me through super tough times and since I was a huge office fan I understood everything going on. Thank you AJR for producing this wonderful song.

My cousin passed away a few months ago. In the days after my family learned of his sudden and unexpected death, all we did was watch The Office. We didn't know what else to do. We were confused, in shock, and grieving more than any of us ever had before. This song just embodies to me how we used it to make it through dark days. It's the dumbest, most cliche sounding thing in the world but the show means more to me than words can really say
That is so deep
The Office is one of those shows that takes the pain out of a person, even for a little while. I'm so sorry to hear about your cousin. I wish you only happiness. lost my grandfather while I was super into the office so that lyric where they say "my grandfather died in season six" really gets to me. I think anyone who has watched The office knows that it's more than just a show.

This song makes me emotional. It reminds you just how much the little things matter on a greater perspective of life. Sometimes, it makes me ask myself, is all this living really worth dying for? Does our little marks, really make the difference we are searching for? But the big question I've never been able to answer, does the world really care... Because growing up, we don't realize just how fast it really goes. And for me, it goes so fast my questions about how to live keep piling up.

And in my corduroys we'd walk to school

I see a lot of coments saying that they are sad because X series had finished, but... "i lost my grandpa during season six"... Does nobody cry with that???
The whole song is sad and beautiful, we can identify with what he says... Growing up with a show, so... We crying bc of the whole song
I couldn’t sleep bc of that like I lost grandfather really that hit me in the wrong vibe

_"but who i am is in these episodes,_
_so don't you tell me it's just a show."_
Myrin so me my favorite show just ended and It felt like so much more people don’t understand what shows mean to people my favorite show svtfoe just ended and i miss it a lot it got me through a lot of rough times whatever show you thought about I hope it went out well
This song actually hits me hard. I watched The Office with my dad, it was some of my best memories with him. After every long day, I could look forward to sitting on the couch with him and watch a show without having to worry about what would happen next, him holding me close. He also was the one to introduce me to AJR. Hearing this song reminds me of all those nights. He's gone now, but I still like watching the show or listening to the bands he played. This song makes me smile and want to cry at the same time. Thanks.
Edit: Today is the anniversary of his death. Just listening to all the songs. Basically just leaving comments on all the one's that really hit me hard on this day. I don't really know what else to do.
🥺🥺
I lost my dad 16 years ago, I understand 🫂
oh sweetheart 🥺🫂
Stay strong 🫶🏾
i wish Steve Carrel hears this song and realices how awsome he and the show was.
2 things that will make any man cry.
The end of the office
And when Michael Scott leaves the show
💔😞
WHAT I AM A NEW FAN HE LEAVES?!?!? NUUUUUUUUU WHAT SEASON
And Jim and Pam's wedding
I’d never cried at a movie or show until the Office...
Brazehn Michael scarn
Or when a ajr song ends
the office has helped me through so much sadness and anxiety...it’s definitely not “just a show.” it’s something i can always turn to
Everyone: "they made a song about The office. This is awesome"
Me: *has no idea what "the office" is but still loves the song*
Boy you been living under a rock for nearly 20 years?
@@bigmustang1972 Hey, not all of us grew up watching the show, ok? We all have our own show preferences, and honestly, even tho I'm a 2003 kid, I never once watched the office(I might go back and watch an episode or 2, but I'm just saying..)

@@MasterOfTheBrood yeah I have
this show, star vs the forces of evil, actually shaped and changed my life. i started watching it when i was 8 years old and ended right before i turned 13. through those years, i was bullied for liking the show and cartoons, in general, and i still am. but in the end, i’ve moved onto other cartoons and shows and embraced what i loved. then 2 years later, i started editing cartoons, finding a hobby i love (that could lead to a future career) and people who had the same interests as me. i had found this audio from a steven universe edit on instagram, which is also another show that i love that is also ending. so coming back here after star vs the forces of evil ended brought tears to my eyes.
thank you. ❤️
DelicateDreamer I’ve seen so many people on here from SU edits lol, and I totally felt all of that
I also Loves and will love SVTFOE it was asnd is may fav show (along with steven universe, I literally refuse to pick)
i felt this. it started warchibg svtfoe when i was 10, now i'm almost 15 its crazy
it started when i was 14, and ended when i was 18. its sad to see it go, but its definitely been with me through some of the hardest times of my life.
You should watch shira I thinks that’s how you spell it but it’s good and my cuz watches it with me a lot

You did right. More enjoyable than a hung result.
& more enjoyable than anything.
I've actually started watching The Office after listening to this song.
2 seasons down, it's amazing. Thanks AJR :)
EDIT: 3 days later, I am now halfway through season 4. Still amazing.
you're not gunna like season 7 ;)
Hoaky FTW oh I finished the show ages ago, took me 18 days to finish it all. Season 7 was sad but it was a good send-off for sure.
Callum Wale I just finished it today, I'm a mess
aren't we all when there's no more Office left to watch!
Ugh you guys have no idea I'm right now watching the office for the 16th time all the way through. I can't stop
Billie ellish: *has ten second audio from the office in a song that has nothing to do with the office*
Fans: oh my gosh she’s a big office fan
Ajr: *makes and emotional song about the office that can be applied to any kind of tv show*
Fans: lol whatever
yeah i know it's annoying that they aint getting as much recognition and everything, but don't put billie ellish down for it.....
and, no offense, but imo this song sounds way better (but i also don’t rlly like her style of music so-)

When I was little, I would lay on my moms lap, watching The Office. When I heard the show ended, I was upset, even though I only watched it every now and then. Thank you AJR.
1:17 I cried at the grandma part, Ryan's voice thoo
this made me cry...but in a cool way
Mel You've made my day by saying that ! 😂
Dylan I love you for your Harry Styles reference
Dylan Harry styles 😂
ahhahaha lol
I'm listening to a song by AJR about The Office and responding to a comment about Harry Styles why are there so many things I love here
Lets take a moment to praise every show, cartoon, movie , anime and so on that have passed

I remember loving so many shows and movies, blissfully watching without a care as a child. what I give to get that back.
All of AJR's music feels my soul with so much happiness 😊

Mae Em yeah the first time i heard them it was on pandora and it was the song weak. i did not like it at first but then i tried it again and it became one of my favorites. so i started to become a huge fan and i sung all of their songs and i also found a song that was never released call married on a hill. i remember when i was watching the weak video i thought it meant that jack would split up

Uncharted 2 was my first real video game 😍😭
Two days ago, the greatest show I’ve ever watched ended, maybe it’s not the most popular, but it’s was The Owl House… I just finished the finale ten minutes ago, and bawled my eyes out to this song, the show spoke to me like nothing before, I related to it and loved almost every second of it, it helped me in dark times, and now the finales done, and I just listened to Netflix trip here on my phone, The Owl House was such a huge part of me and my life, so don’t tell me it’s just a show, to anyone else who came here after the finale, or any finale, all good things have to come to an end, but damn, I’ll sure as hell miss it.
The owl house was so important to me too the way luz acted and how it was hard for her to fit in and how amity was sour to sweet and how certain characters got the redemption they deserve or the karma... The ending was bittersweet but it was still amazing 💜
I loved the ending part where everyone said "BYEEEEEE" I gonna miss The Owl House a lot man😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I love how many owl house fans came straight to this song after the finale.
The owl house is literally my all time favorite show, so sad it’s over, but glad I got to watch
DAMN IT I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS COMMENT AAAAAA
AJR makes me so happy! I was sad but this album change my mood. Thank you, guys.
"Who am I, to tell me who I am?"
*Me like three months ago* wait am I hearing this rig-WAIT IS THIS THE OFFICE
*me looking at the lyrics right now* OMFG IT IS
This song reminds me of old Disney shows that we’re actually good but sadly ended😢😭
R.I.P. Gravity Falls
Niko Stark yes it was amazing *sigh* god I miss that show
this song represents “the 100” and “the vampire diaries” for me, those shows truly shaped who i am as a person and how i see life, i’ve laughed so hard my face hurt and cried myself to sleep when my favorite character died (still not over lexa dying) but i’m glad i was blessed to get to watch these amazing shows and get introduced to these amazing actors and of course my idol, Alycia Debnam-Carey❤️♾

Harmony Williams I haven’t heard of any of those shows before 😂
None of those shows will come back because all the actors and people who watched it grew up :\
This song has nothing to do with Nickelodeon shows
@@drakeg3779 Literally all of those but big time rush are disney shows. To be fair, this song is more than just the office.
My head canon: This song is talking about when growing up (I think during highschool) they all watched the office, they talk about how sometimes they could relate to and stuff they went through while the show was airing, I feel it talking about the show helping them cope with everything going on. Thank you for coming to my TED talk😂
(It's just my head canon I might be wrong)
i think thats exactly right
Not really a head cannon since that's exactly what the song is about :)
No time for Hate
That’s not a head canon, it’s literally what the song’s about
I seriously don’t get where you got that at all... what about the lyrics suggests this?? I think you misunderstood the song.
@@samuelcreighton7287 How did they misunderstand? The song states that you should take in every moment and keep it close to you while you experience it. They watched Netflix to cope with the modern day hardships. It starts in Middle school, where he had his first crush. She then moved away, and he was hit hard and started coping with The Office. It then states how he turned down Jameson, and then promptly graduated from 8th grade.
When they reached season 6, their grandfather passed and it was devastating for the whole family. 'Who are we to wonder where we're going' is a statement about how you shouldn't always try to force yourself to wonder about what you could change in the life you had. 'Who am I to tell me who I am' refers to the fact that you should never force yourself to become one thing without the influence of life's push.
Open up your mind for a bit, and let yourself take in this wonderful Interpretation that the user "Please Don't" made
this song reminded me immediately of she-ra which ended not too long ago, i grew attached to all of the characters and its plot and when it ended i was a total mess not ready to say goodbye to any of the characters i fell in love with, and seeing the comments here makes me happy to know i’m not so alone when it comes to growing attached to a show.
thank you for everything you’ve done these last two years, she-ra. you’ve made such an impact now and it’s only going to get bigger in the coming years. ❤️
I will miss this show... 😞
THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!

I'm not here for The Office, but I still know the sentiment.
One of my favorite shows just ended yesterday. I still can't really believe it. That song helped me connect with some of the people I loved the most.
It's not just a show to me, and it never will be.
Thanks, TOH. I'll be sure to watch you again.
1 minute before listening to this song i searched "is the office on netflix'. i love the office so damn much and can't express how great this song is . watching tv shows is a routine for so many people and the way they relate it to certain life events just makes me love this song so much. AJR's lyrics in general are so real. The references to the office are awesomee especially when you listen to them through such a great song
"we are the crystal gems"
"MY EIGHTH GRADE GRADUATION WISH ME WELL" this cAme out the DAY i graduated eighth grade im crying more now thanks boys
totallyliv same
I'm in the eight grade. I'mma save this song for later-
Seventh grade right now...might play one of AJRs songs when I graduate
I'm sorry WHAT, WE FINISH 8TH GRADE ON JUNE 30
Television will never be the same. So many shows lost.
Steven Universe, Adventure Time, The Amazing World of Gumball, Star vs. the Forces of Evil, Modern Family, the Office, the list goes on! This song captures how many people grow up perfectly. Not enough people realize how much emotional significance a single piece of digital entertainment can carry.
And now just recently The Owl House ended too😭😭😭
I almost cried when Modern Family ended
