ok i got freaked out when her face started moving i thought it was just gonna be the album cover😭🤣
haha me too!
haha, i can totally see that element of surprise!
I think they counted on that.
“We can be anything, even apart” that lyric gets me every time man
Zachary Lacosse it WAS written by a 17 year old, it doesn't mean it can't be meaningful...
Zachary Lacosse Yeah it's cheesy and unrealistic as hell.
There’s a few people here who have never had a dream
Zachary Lacosse Honestly everything about your initial reply are the exact reasons I love the line and her songwriting in general
How is it unrealistic? I mean, if you don't know how a broken relationship works. But I guess it's your opinion. אנונימית אנונימי
2020's gonna be a hell of a year
Edit: this aged like fine wine
luisa agudelo gonna b hell for sure
you werent lying
yep
You are right
Fuck you
this song is basically a first love/immature love type of experience: you love so intensely and you're so insecure about their feelings that you constantly question them about it "who's your type of girl? who's top of your world?" and wanting to so badly be with them that you're willing to compromise yourself for them, "i can be anyone. We can be anything". it's just being completely and utterly blinded by love and believing you know yourself so well that you're certain you'll never love anyone else BUT this person. it's a bittersweet song
@@fancychannelname Agreed. We are all idiots when we are smitten with somebody early on.
I'm 24 and haven't had my first love yet and I'm terrified. You know what they say; first love is like chickenpox, the later you catch it, the worse.
@@GLamoRousCooKie Oh just fuckin relax dude and give yourself a break. just date around. meet bitches. you won't like them all either.
@@GLamoRousCooKie It will be great, I promise, even if you'll get hurt, you'll recover from it and become a better person with more experience
shhhhh... and I am 29, recovering addict and love sick for over a year now
Everyone here has great taste in music
lol anyone who likes Snail Mail has a good taste of music for sure
I don't want to sound dramatic but its hard to describe how this song makes me feel. Somehow euphoric and kinda sad at the same time. Its wonderful.
isn’t that how love feels
Get this EXACT feeling. Nostalgic in a way, hurts but feels good to hurt like that
welcome to my music taste
That's gay
It's a nostalgia feeling
“You’ll never change to me, cause I’m not looking” ooooofffff that’s such a badass line
Always gets me but i dont know if i got the "real" meaning
@@laurenwerlangshe only knows an idealistic version of this person because she is blinded by love. Even if the person changed she wouldn't even realize it.
I'm 52 years old and I've listened to college radio for decades, this song crept up on my playlist like many other classics.
Same. 49 here. Been listening to a lot of Pinegrove, Snail Mail, and Saintseneca. Good music
Time to grow up there buddy.
Ben Donnelly who gives a fuck let people do what they want ya spoon
Ben Donnelly just shut the entirety of the fuck up
Age is just a number! 🤘
I was fortunate enough to see Snail Mail live in Brooklyn the very night before Lush dropped, and it was one for the books. You could tell Lindsey was overwhelmed at the sheer size of the crowd before her. Over 600 were singing along to this song, and it felt like watching someone reach self-actualization before my very eyes. Like in that moment she knew she finally made it. That all of her hard work paid off. I was completely overcome by it all, the sheer emotion of the moment when the *entire* room brought home the last verse together. I got choked up, as a few tears escaped my eyes. I was front row, and she saw me, and got choked up, too. She had to take a few seconds to regain her composure, as the crowd cheered her on. She made it through in the end, but it just felt monumental being there, seeing a rock star crystallize before your eyes. The next day, the album dropped, to pretty much critical acclaim by a sweeping majority. It was such an honor to see her cross that threshold into stardom live.
....
Well put
thewhatness cool moment thank you for sharing.
Right on!!
cool
i met lindsey at a clairo concert literally the most indie sentence
oh to be u
@Dakota Hope no she was in the crowd and i saw her when i was leaving the concert :)
all hail indie sapphic artists 💕🌸🌺🌹🌼🥀💖
@@ruejules8348 yes!!!
this reminds me of when I met conan gray outside of a 1975 concert haha
I’m 60 and love this fucken song! Sounds so good loud in the car!
There's something about that guitar, it's a simple but good sound....
love the guitar. reminds me of early juliana hatfield.
...mmmh or the first album of The Cure!!!!!
not really...unless you have a specific song in mind...
The first 4 bars are highly reminiscent of Foo Fighters' Everlong.
The tone and playstyle are very similar to a lot of Duster stuff.
This really is an immaculate pop song, with an absolutely fantastic video. I'm 49 but feel 19 listening to this.
I rarely comment on anything, but this is one of my favorite songs ever. Lush is one of my favorite albums ever. Snail Mail is brilliant.
Cried when I heard this song for the first time in concert and I just cried again while listening to it on my bedroom couch. It hits too hard 🥲
“I’ll never love anyone else.” I always feel that way whenever I’m practically heartbroken by a crush that goes nowhere. It’s like, I feel like I don’t ever want to be with someone else, but eventually I just get over it. Emotions (or lack thereof) are weird.
Being with people is overrated. This song hits differently if you read it as an internal dialogue.
The song really captures the sense of loss one experiences when you're a young adult, you've found love for the first time, but for whatever reason it just doesn't work out. I think by listening to songs like this, we better understand loss and are able to move forward in our lives towards better things. So in that respect, what a fucking beautiful song to make, 'Snail Mail.' Please continue to make amazing songs that let you and others come to terms with suffering, and create happiness. Awesome.
Sorry to break it to ya, but loss never gets easier. But, yes, this songs does capture that feeling.
Brian Eastburn Can confirm.
Don't know if I agree, I think this song is very specifically about NOT getting over that first love and holding it in your heart forever. As supported by such lyrics as "Ill still see you in everything for always..tomorrow...and all the time" "Ill never love anyone else"
So true! It's been almost 3 months and the loss still hurts, but I'm trying to take it one day at a time.
I feel the same
"And I know myself and I'll never love anyone else
I won't love anyone else
I'll never love anyone else"
Instantly starts crying....
Me. All day
Aaliyah Leveau currently how I feel
This song used to make me cry on my lunch breaks.
No matter your age, who can't relate to this? If music makes us cohesive then this band is part of the glue.
right! hope you have a good day!
Pristine
Untraced by the world outside you
Anyways
I'll never get real
And you'll never change to me 'cause I'm not looking
Anyways
Same night
Same humility for those that love you
Anyways, anyways
And if you do find someone better
I'll still see you in everything
Tomorrow and all the time
And don't you like me for me?
Is there any better feeling than coming clean?
And I know myself and I'll never love anyone else
I won't love anyone else
I'll never love anyone else
It just feels like
The same party every weekend
Doesn't it? Doesn't it?
And if you do find someone better
I'll still see you in everything
For always, tomorrow and all the time
Don't you like me for me?
Is there any better feeling than coming clean?
And I know myself and I'll never love anyone else
I won't love anyone else
I'll never love anyone else
If it's not supposed to be
Then I'll just let it be
And out of everyone
Be honest with me
Who do you change for?
Who's top of your world?
And out of everyone
Who's your type of girl?
And we can be anything
Even apart
And out of everything
It doesn't have to be this hard
I could be anyone
But I'm so entwined
And out of everyone
Who's on your mind?
And no more changes
I'll still love you the same
This is a lyric video... the lyrics are in the video dumbass
Thanks but it's a lyrics video💀
The lyrics aren't there immediately when she sings the words and sometimes the lyrics aren't that readable. THANK YOU
the real hero.
I didn't think much of this track on first listen, but now it's consuming my every day.
She is reminiscent of Nico, Blondie, Silversun Pickups, Pavement, Sonic Youth...that minimalist sound, a little voice that screams and howls at the moon and expresses so much in such a short sweet song. Thanks snail mail :)
I’ve listened to this song over and over. This is the type of song that would have ruined cassette tapes. You’re so fucking talented.
Sums up heartbreak so succinctly, directly and rawly without being krass or cheesy. Absolutely amazing
You should listen to “Valentine”
It’s another really great one she did, kinda about heartbreak too among other things.
Can’t believe I heard this at a Starbucks the other day lol
Is it wrong to relate deeply to this song in your mid 20s rather than as a teen? Bc it's hitting me hard
Chad Ross same
Nope. Not at all. I'm 49 years old and love Snail Mail. Her guitar playing gives me a nostalgic feeling. I love it
I'm in my mid 20s as well so hopefully not? It helps if you're a hopeless romantic though and you can be that at any age.
The heart is the heart no matter what age.,
Fuck me too. I dont want a divorce, but I can’t change her mind.
if you haven't danced like crazy to this song, you haven't lived!!
This somehow reminds me of the past, and an unrequited love that lingers on. Tears in my eyes when listening to this. Fantastic tune.
well fuckin obviously, the lyrics are right there. somehow???
Raffy Rillo Well, the music screams 90's or early 2000's
Same.
I fully believe this is the best indie rock song ever written
i fully agree, it was incredible off first listen and just keeps getting better and better
Dizzy On The Comedown has that spot but this top 10 for sure
Goddamn, she chooses the best chords
“Is there any better feeling than coming clean” has been my Ig bio caption since this song came out and I still kind of forgot about it. Coming back and it still feels so damn good. Such a good summer when this song came out....I was in love. And now I’m not. And the world changed. But this feeling when this song plays is still the fucking same 💜💜💜 thank you Lindsey for your words, and that amazing voice and that band that crushes my soul every time I’m screaming these songs in my car 🤣💜💙💙🖤💜💙🖤
I can't believe I saw her live opening for Courtney Barnett and didn't even know who I was watching. I was mesmerized and the crowd seemed oblivious! Glad they are getting recognition
*This, but unironically*
I recently realized that I may never see my first love again. I only admired him in secret, and the worst part is that only now can I see clearly that my feelings very likely weren't one-sided. As pathetic as it sounds, I'm hung up on someone I liked 10 years ago, and I'm only 20. I don't know if I could love anyone else, but I'm painfully aware that he only exists as an idea to me now, a memory that is increasingly ephemeral.
Its a bad feeling but i know what it feels like and i got the courage to ask her 5 years later if she really did have a thing for me in high school and she did she gave me a good hug and a kiss on the cheek and said she was very disappointed i never noticed but that was my fault for thinkin nobody could ever love a guy like me and when i see her at my best friends new years party every year but thats was almost 7 years ago i dont really go anywhere much i still think about her but in the end i just hope he takes care of her and makes her happy
@@angeldellobo5979 I'm sorry that things didn't work out, but good for you for not holding onto resentment and being able to wish her the best.
I know it's not my place to comment, but I think it's unfair that she told you that it was your own fault for thinking that nobody could love you :/ Similar thoughts have crossed my mind, (actually, I think that's what blinded me from seeing that my feelings were reciprocated), and I know the feeling, it really sucks. But I don't think it's your fault for feeling that way. There could be a number of reasons why you were made to feel that way that have little do with you and more to do with the world around you. Nobody should have to feel like they're undesirable, so it comes across as pretty heartless to me that she would find you at fault for feeling so solitary. Like, just because she secretly had a thing for you, that doesn't automatically invalidate the insecurities you felt at the time (especially since you were in high school).
Sorry, I know I don't know anything about the situation other than what you wrote, and I don't want to presume, but still, I think what she told you was kinda awful! Why was the onus on you to notice her feelings? Why not the other way around? You wrote that she was disappointed that you never noticed how she felt, but if she was aware of your feelings, she could have, I don't know, made the first move? But I guess she expected you, the guy, to because of ~ye olde gender norms~. Idk, man, kinda sounds like she was expecting you to do something that she wouldn't be willing to do herself which seems super unfair. But, again, what do I know? Despite what she said, I don't think you should hold your lack of confidence against yourself. Not that I'm really in a position to be giving advice about this topic... As long as you've made your peace with it, that's what really matters.
Oh damn thank you but no my wording was wrong no im saying that it was my fault that i never got the hint she didnt fault me for missing it it was my fault im still great friends with her but these last 3 years i have lost contact with her entirely and its sad sometimes cause i d just like to know shes well but i feel that i shouldnt just cause shes with him now and id only be causing problems even if thats not my intention
I take your kind words with much appreciation friend thanknyounand sorry for the misunderstanding and thank you for taking the time to conversate this is why i love to watch music videos and find new artists cause i end up meeting wonderful people in the comments
@@angeldellobo5979 oh okay, sorry for misunderstanding 🤦♀️. Glad to hear that you're still friends, though! Hopefully you can get in touch with her simply to send your well wishes!
My favorite album of at least the last 2-3 years, and I'm even older.. almost 56 now. Reminds me of early Pavement in some ways. Very unassuming and clear.
Man girls have been killing lately....
I love it
I've noticed that too, historically I haven't been into that many female artists but lately I have discovered heaps
Right, listen to No Vacation
I guess you don't realize how sexist that statement is...
@@emptyname12345 fuck off idiot
@@frarfarf I was talking to the original commenter. You're clearly sexist as fuck tho.
"But don't you like me for me?" gets me everytime
I love this video. Growing up with Mary Timony and MD/DC indie in the 90s, you can just hear it drench this song.
Love love love
JON HIII
Your reviews suck ass. Nathan Williams is better than you.
I was just watching your Billboard's Top 50 so far, and you brought me here. I'm not disappointed.
thank you Jon for exposing me to this with today’s new beyond artv video.
Lol nvr thot i c u here
this is so fucking good
yess
Mhmm
probably one of the most underrated musicians in the musical world right now...
It's funny how I found this song. I jumped on the trend on Instagram where they search for their names in the ig music. I typed my name (Pristi) then this song came up and matches my personality so much, like this song is tailor-made for me. My heart is jumping right now, this song is now my main character soundtrack 💙❤💙❤💙❤
Such a cool origin story!
theres something about her voice i just wanna be best friends with her and tell each other cool stories go shopping and stuff haha
sameeeee
unknown user a bit aggressive much?
Well i just want to listen to her music because we might not click personality wise so i don't want to ruin the music for me
@I say shotgun, you say wedding nice Bikini Kill reference
being nonchalant is the mood for 2019 and all of time
Snail Mail's sound is so clean and pristine. Love this!
I can't stop listening to this song
..send help immediately
2018 is a great year for music already
you can say that again
no joke
what else is coming out this year?
true.
examples?
" i know myself and i'll never love anyone else " 😭
this song is currently getting me though a tough breakup, thank you snail mail
I didn't know this was essential to my existence until I heard it
rip to the people who have never heard this song
I'm addicted to this song now, this one and Heat wave
There's something about her voice,
I feel deeply moved
NPR brought me to them like 2 years ago..still my favorite tune. Still my favorite station.
It's like the apotheosis of all the music from the 90s that fascinated me. Super literate about influences but natural and unselfconscious. It makes so much sense that theyre on Matador. My favorite band right now.
about a year after this was released me and my partner at the time slip up and this became my crying song. literally to this day everytime this song plays i become a mess and it's been isolated to my sad playlist
When I make art this song encapsulates what I wish to express...sheer individual expression, no pretension, no desire to be mystical or unique...she is so honest that her whole being and personality is on display for all
3rd time playing this song today. It's just a vibe
I literally cant sing along without crying this song pierces my soul.
Those high notes are so raw....Im in love!
I'm still coming back to this masterpiece
this song is a headbanger but also a heartbreaker
i listened to joji - run, wich lead me to phoebe bridgers, wich lead me to rosemary fairweather, wich lead me to this, i sometimes love how youtube works
beautiful girl with a beautiful voice singing beautiful lyrics
this song is amazing
“, but I’m so entwined” best part
This song gets me everytime
one of the best songs ending.
That ending. Immense !
i've known about snail mail's existence for like half an hour but... how could I even exist without Lindsay's music in my life?
Massive massive props to the video editors
Wow 1 million. I heard this at 50k and it easily became one of my favorites of summer 2018. Nice to see lyndsey getting more recognition 😌
I'm just glad that Lush never released an album called "Snail Mail." This place is already weird enough
Masterpiece
Damn, about a year ago I would listen to this song because it was relevant to something I was going through at the time. I will always deeply relate to this song. The lyrics are just so fucking good
one of my favorite songs of all time
Absolutely agreed! Just heard it for the first time a month ago but I knew right away it had that power.
Checked this out after an NPR interview with her. So glad I did. This song is fantastic!
damn, this song is goood
There are probably 100 artists who have mined the 1980s effectively in the last 15 years. It is much rarer for anyone to mine the 1990s well. Snail Mail does it, however.
Beabadoobee and Pale Waves also.
i can only think about you when im listening snail mail
So many 90's vibes into this, amazing
Im obsessed with this song, love her voice
I just heard this today and I feel so bad that i overlooked this artist! I'm so sorry Snail Mail
this girl is literally underrated,i hope she gets the attention she deserves
Usually I write comments to songs that I really felt. And I felt it, really hard.
This is one of the best songs of the past decade
Fell in love with the song by listening to the alternative radio in the sims 4. I love it! Super underrated. Thank u sims 4
her songs kill me yet some how uplift me. snail mail wins 2018!
This is like Liz Phair type stuff and I'm definitely here for it. Chickies got a great voice!
I LOVE YOU SNAIL MAIL I played this song at least one thousand timesss
The Districts, Pinegrove, Kurt Vile, Ron Gallo and now this, damn good stuff!!
The definition of talent
The definition of talent is to have rich parents?
echo what?
@@the-chameleon this isnt a Clairo song
Been in my head for days now, Love this band
This song is stuck in my head so bad
Instant classic!
Now that's a great fucking song!
I love this song so much. Brings me to my youth when the first album of Placebo came out. I can't stop listening to this song.
so when i first heard this song when it dropped i was in a really really rough place and i listened to it on repeat. so now that i'm back in a way better head space, this song is heartbreaking to listen to. though it still smacks, but it will always have a special place in my heart and playlist.
Nice Sound, Sounds AMAZING.
This is alot like hearing teenage riot by sonic youth for the first time again. Great tune
Happy !! Thanks. Love your music.
the best song ever, i love snail mail 💓
