► LYRICS:
pushing and peeling myself out of my disguise
looking at you now i am wondering who am i
if i could try to take you back i couldn't define
feeling
absence of time
knowing
all is decided
there's nothing
here left to find
the story's all in my mind
pushing and peeling the layers
that cover my mind
looking into the shadow
now i notice the light
magic is real
when you see it inside
you decide
it's like a snake shedding skin
creating
life to begin and all you know has vanished again
transcending
virtue and sin
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things
when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things
when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
yeah
gotta decide how we’re gonna feel it
i am trying to find out
gotta know
that life is fragile
gotta know
but
gotta go
i stood in awe
inside a temple
of a god i didn't know
wanna go
find the one
who understands
why we wait for pain to change us
to let me know
that life is fragile
it's like a turtle in sand
making
way to the ocean
almost
meeting the end
because the
birds are in motion
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things
when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
yeah
gotta decide how we’re gonna feel it
i am trying to find out

WILLOW is so creative with her musical direction, but we're not giving enough credit to her producers for the amazing instrumentals
love when producers and artists synchronizeeeee🫶🏿
We hanged our harps Upon the willows in the midst thereof. Psalm 137:2
He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a willow tree. Ezekiel 17:5
WOW!!!!!!
She tries hard but just doesn’t do it for me I’m sure she had her team
Nope ...can't
THANK YOU for reminding the world that catchy songs can have musical complexity, and reminding music geeks that complex music can still be catchy.
💯💯💯
Seriously this should be the #1 comment.
This 100!!!
Don't think music geeks ever thought that complex music can't be catchy.
Exaaaactly. Brilliant song
The alt/pop rock, r&b and jazz influences on this track are so crazy it’s like sounds from all her best songs from her best era’s MASTERPIECE
It’s literally a perfect mix/balance of all the things! So hard to do but i love it.
jazz fusion for real. She put everything in it
She Need To Help Jaden Out With His Music 😂
I think its called math rock genre
Sounds like an epic anime intro song
I'm a metal head and this is just gorgeous. The modulations and her vocal control is incredible. THIS is good pop music.
THIS is definitely not pop...lots of Jazz influence moreso I'd say. Even some joni mitchell story telling vibe.
Yooo same here! \m/
Metal head here also. Sometimes, you need a palate cleansing from all the blast beats. Check out 'First Aid Kit', if you haven't already. I'm sure you would appreciate for the same reasons.
I could almost hear A Perfect Circle in this
This ain't pop
I love that she's in a space where she can be a real ARTIST.
YES omg
Makes me realize how much having to work "a real job" has changed me. I used to art for a living, but the poverty became unbearable.
Exactly what I thought. She's an authentic artist. Breaking down stereotypes and showing .capacity for creativity that includes so many different sounds.
For real, she is talented... but god money helps a ton.
how hard is it for her to be in a space to be a 'real artist' when she has multi-millionaire parents with connections? while everyone else has to slave away at a job or are forced to attend college in hopes of upward mobility, she gets to 'explore' herself musically without a care in the world. she speaks of 'existential concepts' without having never known what is was like to go hungry, worry about finances, or wonder how she's going to come up with $$ for studio time.
this is one of the most unique songs I've heard in the past decade. really.
Preach 🤌🏾✨
She loves what she’s doing-no argument there. But she’s no phenomenal singer
There's a lot of unique songs that this song borrowed elements from, you just probably didn't hear them cause they're not mainstream
We hanged our harps Upon the willows in the midst thereof. Psalm 137:2
He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a willow tree. Ezekiel 17:5
Yeah right, it's like wannabe cage the elephant with the indie from a Regina Spektor with a Courtney ,,Terra Naomi
she's got the type of talent that will allow people to forget her family tree and just indulge in her art. rare considering she is who she is.
No pun intended I presume (sorry)
all puns always intended @@cooldebt 😁ahaha
Smh yall kill me
Agree she is talented
Ridiculous. She’s who she is BECAUSE of her family tree. Her entire family is extremely talented. All self made successful artist. The rest is all BS.
I’m 60 years old and it’s rare for me to embrace any music that’s put out there these days, but I found myself listening to “Wait a Minute” and became interested in who Willow was as an artist.
Of course, I knew who she was, but I never bothered to listen to her music because I only listen to old stuff…from the 60s and 70s, but this young woman is so mega talented that I can’t get enough of her music!!!
This new album, “empathogen”, is just absolutely perfect!!!
If this album doesn’t win a Grammy for Album of The Year, then something is definitely wrong here!!!
Best of luck to this extraordinary young artist and I am a solidified fan!!!
have you heard / seen Esperanza Spalding's "12 Little Spells"? strong esperanza vibe in this song.
@@axolotl8694I have not. But I will check it out! Thank you!!
I'm 78yrs and ditto. Wait a Minute caught my ear also.❤😊
Your sentiments resonate with me perfectly. ❤
I'm 60 and I like what I hear from this beautiful girl!!! something different!
she has that beautiful energy around her and you can feel it in her music, the production, the vocals

Beautiful 😍❤️❤️
Totally agree❤her!!!!
I agree
She's Willow Smith, she's surrounded be yes men/women, so everything she does the reaction is "Yes, omg that's amazing." Which is why the music sounds like this
im glad that she found the genre that truly fits her.
YES, everything find their place
She has many genres stop boxing
Well the phase / box she's in now compliments her beautifully. ❤
Tf you mean? She made her own genre lol
She does it well.
Honestly, I think this is the best song I've heard so far this year. When I saw it was Willow Smith, I had to do a double take - but that's my fault I guess for being ignorant of her music - I had no idea she was so gifted. Looking forward to seeing what else she has made if this is anything to go by.
If this is your first time listen to her, pls go back on her albums they are sooooooo good
If you like this listen to her song alone. The arrangement is phenomenal
🙋🏾♀️ Guilty
Willow has real good music you need to go listen
Some songs I recommend of hers are alone, curious/furious, why, come home, lonely road, time machine, and gajendra.
"When suffering wants to see the light...we gotta decide how to heal it..."
Powerful words. TY, Willow!🔥🫶🫰
This song was so refreshing because it doesn't sound like anything else out right now, yet it was still fun to listen to.
Kayla ❣️ Marke is similar to WS
exactly it was fun, upbeat and felt good to hear
wrong, listen to more music LOL
It sounds like you're talking about only listening to a specific mixture of music that's currently being released, but this is a genre that's been made for a very long time you just have to listen to more music
This is what I neeeed
Nahhhhh this song is crazy. Crazier to think we first heard Willow's music like almost 15 years ago. And somehow she's still pushing herself to grow and try new things
The way I absolutely forgot about the iconic Whip My Hair until reading this comment!! 🤯 time flies !
She was 9 when that song was released so not really surprising her music is still evolving, she's only 23 it will evolve more no doubt...
I agree with you 💯 % . Willow needs to grow and mature in vocal cords. You can't give her higher potential b/c of her parents. If she was an ordinary singer like so many others on VOICE and other non celebrity talent shows. So many singers sing nicely, but Willow voice needs stronger process in vocal cord range. She sounds like she is singing from the back of her throat. Her voice isn't fully developed. Yes, I watched VOICE, WHO HAS TALENT etc...
You actually have people who can sang, sing, plus song 🎵 🎶 another artist with perfectly arranging vocal cords hitting those notes that Willow can't do. You actually have singers who can sing w/o music background. Sorry Willow, but Nah.
What's crazier is Ice Spice and Willow were born the same year.
@@kathykatherine874 this is just a different style of music that you probably don't prefer. She is singing beautifully and sung all this life recently even better. There are so many deceptively complicated things she does with her voice singing live that many "sangers" would probably struggle with. All music does not need to sound the same.
This is… gorgeous. My ears are so happy. Willow, I’m a fan. 🙌🏾❤️
Stop the cappuccino
Have you listened to feel like a bird? It's a masterpiece. She is seriously under rated.
OMG NAPTURAL! ❤️❤️❤️ Hope your hair journey is going well 💯💪🏾
Im a fan, too!
@@Dontbeahypocrite5 , one of my favs
I love the shape of her eyes.
Her eyes are so beautiful, especially the shape of them.
@@fyreal9123 sounds like a serial killer obsessing over a specific body part of his/her victims
@@grassu8156 lol ok buddy
The percussion is outstanding, love the pauses, the arrangement..All the instruments & Willows vocals amazing!!!!
It's incredible . Piano just settles it all so perfectly to
Yes!
Hearing 7/4 in a pop song is class 🤌
Can’t wait to hear more of what she creates
Absolutely
lol hearing it is easy but seeing your comment that you know what 7/4 is, is the cool thing
@@IkeOg most don't. i love it.
Odd time signatures are so cool once you understand them. Hopefully more stuff like this comes around in pop going forward
Willow is AN ARTIST. Her music is explorative and ever-evolving. As a listener, I just feel blessed to bear witness to her musical metamorphosis in real time😌
Cudnt have said it better
EXACTLY
she is amazing!! she is definitely not stuck in a certain type of music.....love her artistry!!
Same
@@kemzyacco5629 I appreciate that😊
this bass is absolutely stunning
mohini dey
The keys, the bass, the drums, the vocals, the dynamics, the harmony....... breathtaking!🙌🏼
And the 7/4 in the verse!
@@fionakiely3505 such a flex🤌
This song sounds like it would be the outro of an anime. I love it.
For real
my thoughts exactly! it's the detuned piano and "skippy" drums
OMG...it does!!❤❤❤❤
Yes, while I was listening to it it reminded me of one the Tokyo Ghoul intro/outro.
IKRRR
The cadence, the selected flow, the tone. Jeez Louise . This is incredible .. SO beautiful. Out of this world creativity
Yessss
I’m glad Rick Beato did a video about this song! I wouldn’t have heard it otherwise. This is quite good all around, especially the rhythm and the melody.
Same here!
me too
Yep!
Thanks Rick!
Yep!
Ditto
A true Flower Child✨️

Back at cha ❤sending love & peace ✌️ your way too

Same to you!!!
Thank you. Wishing you well too!
Mo’ Uvit , Love to you with our pilot @willow smith ! I never would’ve guess the young swan 🦢 would’ve took a beautiful blossoming path , she is what the world is missing ! A genius she is
She's such a free spirit
Her lyrics are just unreal
There’s something so nostalgic but new and current about this.
its giving 90s realness pm dawn tori amos jeff buckley own lane realness
that's the comment i've been looking for. felt the same! it reminds me of 90s/2000s videoclips I would watch on mtv
Yes!!!
Reminds me of Incubus...
@@wheatbread2002yes!!! I've been trying to figure it out, definitely Incubus but possibly something more that I can't put my finger on 🤔
I'm 60 And You Just Knocked Me Over The Head With This One. Most Definitely Grammy Worthy Material. Excellent Song Willow! ❤
Some people don't have the ear to appreciate how amazing this production is. It's complex rhythmically, melodically, harmonically, it's switching up time signatures. Imho it's operating on a slightly higher vibration to what we’re hearing on top 40 radio. I don’t know if radio would even want to play this
It's another song on the radio u listen to unvoluntarily. U don't remember the lyrics and u don't know who's singing.
@@StellaNormandy i haven’t heard this on the radio yet once
@@GetOnMyHypeJPthis is an AI, Mashup, 5 min production song.
@@StellaNormandygo back to school
@@StellaNormandyall you're doing is making it clear you have no musical background at all
Why aren't we talking about this song every single second we have a chance to talk about it? I can't remember when I've heard something so freaking fresh and clever
I am...
Check out Imogen Heap, Frou Frou- Must be Dreaming. Toro y Moi for more like this.
@@ElektronikGirlEpic totally agree. However this has a more complex structure in terms of bass and drums. Imogen is a godess for sure, her genesis with froufrou is amazing. Toro and moy is something else. Great taste and culture you have. ❤️
@@ElektronikGirlEpic mac miller with thundercat!
@mcerruti77 if you know any other 7/4 7/8 tracks with this type of sound I'd love to hear it! It's such an awesome time signature. Polyrhythm by Perfume is one other pop song with a mold-break that I know of.
THAT HIGH NOTE OMG
The rest was interesting for fellow gaizers and yard flares.
Oh my God 😢❤❤❤❤❤❤
This arrangement deserves a grammy 😢 this is beautiful
YES!
For real
Willow Smith is flying under the the radar as a amazing talent
it's for the best !
Not anymore lol
She's on the radar now, and NORAD is rocking.
Utterly stunning. I never expected Willow Smith to be the person that made my ears wake up to new music again after not hearing something special for so long. Brilliant
Same feeling here.
Willow hasn't come up on my prog/fusion complexity radar until just now. I'm blown away, she's changed my whole outlook on what's to come from young musicians.
Did not think id arrive at a point in life where i wanna hear a 3way collab between willow, paramore and jill scott
I don’t know who paramore is but I could definitely get behind Willow and Jill Scott!
Well dang. The trio I didn't know I needed.
@@Creyole Pleaseee go listen to Paramore 😩😩😩😩 one of my fave bands back in the day
I was thinking this song gives Hayley Williams' Petals for Armor vibes lol
That would be amazing
She just did a Tiny Desk Concert. AWESOME
Lives were changed
Totally amazing
I PASSED IT UP ILL GO LISTEN TO
I THINK SHE'S GOING TO DO A BIG DESK CONCERT SOMETIME NEXT MONTH BUT I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHEN.
th-cam.com/video/DmC2QQESN6E/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=NPRMusic
this song is an absolute masterpiece. I am beyond shook
SAME! My husband played this for me last night without showing me who it was and I thought it was Amy Lee from Evanescence! Willow is so incredibly talented
thanks to Mohini Dey on bass
She literally just laid there and it was incredible.
we can thank the director for that aspect. and her mama nem who made her so gorgeous.
title of your sextape!
i mean... she's one of my biggest celebrity crushes... she's got that nala energy all over
Relatable tune
This may be her most mature song yet... sonically, vocally, melodically. The chorus also
I almost cried hearing this for the first time, it’s been a really long time since I’ve heard something unique and different, it’s been a while, lately I’m just rediscovering old music because i feel like nothing new is as good, but this, this restored my passion towards music again, u talking about feasting your eyes, while I’m feasting my ears and mind with this, u probably ain’t reading this, but, thanks Willow
Check out Jacob Collier. You might like his music.
Next check out the newer stuff from Knower and Louis Cole. Mindblowing songs.
@@lilachavez1173I LOVE HIM AND THAT SONG “Feel” OMG
Omg sameeeeee😫😫💕
My arrangements may not be as good as Willow's but I just released an EP under my name that I think you would like. I am accidentally creating a new genre and if you're looking for something unique I think you will find it in my music. It's under "Izzy Savides"
this song is ingenious. her tiny desk concert is fire. holy cats... we have a real artist on our hands.
David Bennett Piano brought me here.
Amazing song, congrats!
Same, well done!
Same !
me too, it's crazy
Same
Even the first 10 seconds was epic that I knew I had to check this out after watching his video of it.
Her voice is so unique , I love the musical direction she’s gone in.
She looks alot like her mom Jada
This has a 90's alternative touch to it
Like a baby Bjork vibe
Yeah also some Tori Amos
Yes. Fiona Apple, Tori Amos, and hints of Bjork.
Yall just be saying anything 😂
She's got it all in there. Vocal melody start off like Tove Lo 'Bitches', a few Janelle Monae flourishes, Bjork, Bush, lol. #lovely
Again, I love this composition because it feels modern but you can also hear that its using other musical theory other than what is most common in main stream songs. Its a good balance and I hope this song reaches more people.
I truly cannot get over this vocal performance.
She’s getting better and better ❤
Amazing isn't it! Exquisite
Willow is simply brilliant. Her voice, style & name suits her. A unique human that deserves more recognition.
the flow on that second verse is so crazy to me. I love this song
The vocals, the beat in 7, the chord progression the melody, everthing is so heart touching and perfekt done ....incredible
The only incredible thing here is Auto Tune.
@@drosophilamelanogaster3957 Just as you want
@@drosophilamelanogaster3957 And Midi.
I like how when she says "transparently" the music like smoothly shifts to the music for transparent soul while she says it. That's mad cool 😭
Was looking for this commment i heard it too🤭😍😍
No problem @haladitheman
There is so much imagery in the lyrics. Groove makes me have it on repeat. I’m 49 and normally an 80s rock, 90s grunge. Oh. And Whitney. Can’t stop thinking about the GOAT. Folk, Jazz, but this. Jeesh. She is textbook perfect. PERFECT!
I fell in love with willow when I heard the album “the 1st” and realized how meaningful the lyrics were. She has the soul of a philosopher, a spiritual seeker, someone who’s truly devoted to find meaning in this deep ocean we call life. And to put that in her music is a big act of courage and truthfulness in a world that is becoming more and more artificial and vain. As a Brazilian, I hope to watch your concert somewhere here in the near future. I love you.❤ thank you for your art ❤
Well said. 🤌🏾
There it is, I couldn't have said it better ! You are right .
This is pure joy to my 67yr old ears 🎶 I love the jazz influence, took me back to the 70s! My generation grew up with AMAZING artists nd Willow can definitely hold her position, always evolving yet stayn true to her art her gifts, obviously she has a great team of musicians nd producers nd I'm here for all the magic! TY 💜
I never ever thought i would like a Willow song., but this is seriously some transcendent music. This song is amazing 💗💗💗
She has matured into such a good artist. I love how she has made the effort to create herself out of her mind’s eye. I adore that.
She really is growing into her sound, and I'm here for every new chapter.
I like how she's diving head first instead of dipping a toe in to gauge her listeners' reception. Willow is committed to refining her sound regardless of the direction it takes her.
Willow's sound is just a massive contrast to a vast majority of the industry and it's such a breath of fresh air. I can listen to her all day.
Icon
“find the one who understands
why we wait for pain to change us”
This line hits so close to home, especially now. People crave the pain that brings communities together. People crave sympathy, not empathy. Yet, once we fall into a state of depression, our minds are warped. We asked the world to cry for our pains, yet the only ones left crying is ourselves. Willow, this song is pure artistry. It transcends the limit of modern pop, and it’s a joy to dissect your fruitful lyrics ❤
Even in exercise, the way you build muscle is to literally break the muscle fibers and wait for them to repair. It is the repair that makes them strong.
this entire arrangement, so dynamic, so beautiful, THIS WILL BE HER BEST PROJECT FOR SURE.
Wow, a star WILLOW with her own unique style.
We hanged our harps Upon the willows in the midst thereof. Psalm 137:2

Willow is a breath of fresh air. She's unlike any artist out there. Love her voice and songs. ❤
Never in a million years did I think I'd unironically love a willow smith song. This sounds like peak radiohead or something. Every bit of it is just so good, it's groovy and complex but accessible, has good lyrics, catchy, like legit it's a good song.
Willow has blossomed artistically and she is creating something beautiful and for the soul. She is not just making empty noise, her lyrics here are meaningful and with the instrumentation and her voice, melodies she is able to create a mood.
Her versatility is absolutely amazing! She's soo blessed with talent.
I am so happy to hear her blend all her influences. Rock,folk, alternative, and soul.🤌🏾💅🏾❤️
It's so beautiful
There's some Kate Bush sounds in there to me
R&B as well
Some of the runs, yes Ma’am ❤
A mixture of just great music.
Let's face it, Rock as in really Rock music wasn't for her, she didn't like the fans and the fans didn't like her, so it's great that she's doing what's her real self, pop music.
Amazing song and groove. Trying to play along on drums at home. Key word "trying." Knowing it's 7/4 only helps a little.
She's always had a distinct style of her own 💕
Middle aged woman here, just discovered Willow. She is so fresh anb unexpected. Love this song so much!
I love how she is just in her own lane. No forced agendas just straight from her heart and w.e she is feeling. Willow keep doing your thing a true artist
i AM OBSESSED WITH THIS WHOLE ALBUM LOVE IT
Yessssss I’m ready for this genre of music and a Alt/ rock / indie black singer eraaaaa
HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT. FINALLY some REAL music! It’s SO incredibly refreshing to hear some real music that’s different from EVERYTHING you hear on the radio these days. And tbh I NEVER thought it’d becoming from WILLOW SMITH. Need the album A.S.A.P. Good lord. THANK YOU.
She has albums released, mate 😁
I can't get over it. This is not a pop song. This is like. REAL music.
hey now, pop is real music ;)
@@floofymuffinI mean..
Art is subjective, but I feel like most Pop is too industrialized to be considered "good" and therefore not music to me. But again, it's all subjective
Guys, pop is just an abbreviation for the word "popular". So... yea
@@alessio511 and there just so happens to be an extremely consistent way to predict how this popular music will sound
@@TisKirran this is just not true and sounds so high horsey. i wish people would stop being snobby about music
Willow Smith’s incredible vocals remind me that her dad started his career as a hip hop rapper.
She appeals to me as a perfect jazz-funk fusion. I haven’t heard much from her, but I predict she will have an incredible musical career that is all over the map. I’d love to hear her doing covers of David Bowie, Paul Simon, Pink Floyd, & Stevie Wonder, among others. I am confident she could perform scat like no other. DEFINITELY need to hear MORE from her!
Her evolution has been so rewarding to watch as a fan. She has been making music for over a decade now. This album feels like a perfect cultivation of her original style and all that’s she’s learned about herself along the way. Incredible indeed! I hope she wins the Grammy and has all the more success!
I've been a metalhead for 30-35 years and as of recently I've become a bass teacher. So I've been listening to a lot more jazz and Hip-Hop lately.
I think I got to say she really knocked it out of the park on this one, great track.
Its like Willow is taking directions and cues from the universe instead of social trends. This young lady must have tapped into something mystical, spiritual, and unseen. I'm here for it.
She 'tapped' into many of the greats: BACH, Stravinsky, Ravel, Jerry Goldsmith, Hancock, Evans etc.,) I applaud her and her collaborators for listening to the "Masters".
Willow whipped out the Math Rock. Music Nerds REJOICE!!!!!!!
this is not math rock.
It is clearly inspired. Pay attention to the tempo.@@Mathias_101Music
It most definitely is.. just picture it with guitars instead of piano.. 30+ years of playing.. and building instruments.. this is mathy AF.. very modern "jazzy" as well
@@capturedbyjupiter Ah ok, but instrument selection creates genre aswell no? Never heard a math rock song with vocals either. This song goes from 7/4 to 4/4. so that time signature change makes it math rock? mkay. Who cares what we call it tho, it sounds so lovely.
@@capturedbyjupiter being mathy doesnt make it math rock. plenty of jazz is plenty mathy.
this is obviously a pretty unique style, but it sits somewhere in a jazz-pop fusion space.
so unbelievably obsessed with this song omfg
her voice is so freaking hypnotic now. its crazy
This young lady is pure talent!!! I appreciate the fact that she leads with her talent and don't use tons of sex appeal.
Keep my comment out my phoneee
doesn't** and not using sex appeal isn't something to praise. you either use it or you don't ...
@@bluebestfriendSex appeal with modesty.
I would say she barely uses sex appeal in general, there’s elements of romance but definitely not sex appeal
The song is composed very well. The composers of the song are Brad Oberhofer (piano), Asher Bank (drums), Willow Smith, and Chris Greatti for anyone wondering.
Edited to add Greatti thanks to @AJM11011
thank you so much for that! I was wondering!👏👏👏👏🌞
Sounds like an Incubus song.
@@bluecafe509 I can hear it. Thanks for the reminder to get back into Incubus! 😎
how're you forgetting the main man chris greatti
@@AJM11011 my bad! Fixed
This song has that etheral vibe. I'm in love with Willow's voice 😍
This is amazing, this sound is just pure beauty, her sound is just so different and she just... Makes it sound so damn good - the 7 beat and her different uses of chords just makes this song even more unique. Absolutely lovely! 😁
She is intensely powerful. I love her songs.
amazing use of 7/4, and i love the major chord in the main piano riff. this song is fantastic!!
Willow effortlessly flows through different eras and genres. I hope I can see her live soon 🤎
Here here
Now, this is really great. I hear sooo many different influences of music past flitting through, but this is unique and wonderful as well. Musically and vocally gorgeous. This is top notch musicianship. Can't perform this unless you are damn good at what you play.
Her sound is soooo unique yet still an amalgamation of a 1000 influences n that's why it ends up being so beautiful n rich n authentic
I love this song and I love you Willow......I am a 63 year old man and I love your songs and your performances. Maybe I can see you perform live one day..... I live on South Carolina and a music geek ❤ and by the way....I listen to Wait a Minute all of the time......love it
I agree with Larry. I'm the same age group. I love Willow's energy in her songs. I love the complexity and soul and alternative blend. All ages love you and appreciate your amazing music. I also really appreciate your vocal style. I don't know which song I like more!
Thank you to whomever recorded the drummer & drum room. It's phenomenal.
I had no idea how talented she is. WOW.
just perfect.
it's crazy, i'm turning 26 tomorrow and i started to listen to willow when i was 16.
it's been 10 years since then and you're getting better year after year. i love the fact that i still love your music after a decade. you've been through many phases, yet you still create incredible music. i have "ardipithecus" tattooed on my arm, along with some of your lyrics.
i don't know who i'd be without your songs in my adolescence and now in adulthood.
i love you to the moon and back, willow camille.
My birthday is tomorrow too! Happy birthday ❤

We hanged our harps Upon the willows in the midst thereof. Psalm 137:2
He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a willow tree. Ezekiel 17:5
Willow is honestly one of the most interesting pop/pop rock/alt pop artists right now. Loving this so much!
Yess, I love the fact that she is kind of going into the Jazzy directions with the new music, but still keeping the pop rock influences.
Unique sound #SaveSoil 💚

I love how more artist are showing nature and hiking like Willow and SZA. it’s such a fun and peaceful thing to do
They're just following the rise of gorpcore fashion.
“Willow” is her own genre at this point.
THIS- is art. You can just feel the originality and artistry oozing through this song. It’s absolutely beautiful- one of the most beautiful songs/creations I’ve ever heard. We’re all lucky to say that we got to be around to experience Willow’s music. Man I would love to sit down and talk to her one day 😆✨🤍
Right. Computer. Midi. AutoTune. Not playing one single instrument live. This is real art. How creative. How much effort.
Yes!
Yes!!!
What I really love about this track is that it breaks thru all boxes meaning its next level....can't put this in a box....Love it....Total freedom. Those music catagories restrict a true artist. We need more like this that goes beyond every boundary and yet it is universal like its supposed to be......this is the future of music.....write on.......love & light
This song is like traveling the Universe....Willow has phenomenal talent
I'm a tool fan, electronic, drum n bass, alt rock, soul, blues......Yet i'm here completely addicted to this sound.
It's bloody good hey. I'd say there's even some Tool influence in this song. That sweeping guitar that comes in at 1:56 sounds very similar to Lost Keys (Blame Hofman).
Best thing I’ve heard in long time
