i know there are typos in this! im sorry about that! i didn't notice them until after i had uploaded it x All rights go to halsey. No copyright intended.
"Young James Dean some say he looks just like his father but he could never love somebodys daughter football team, loves more than just the game so he vowed to be his husband at the alter." damn...wow
+beep boop James Dean was a 50's role model, mainly known for being a hot quarterback, and he died when he was 24 in an automobile accident I think. A lot of people believe he was gay, but was pressured into maintaining a facade of being heterosexual due to the society at the time shaming homosexuality. Halsey contrasts this by saying that "New Americana" culture would accept him, and even celebrate him for his individuality.
No, but seriously, this song is brilliantly done and super catchy. Also, it's hilarious to watch the older generations whine about the newer ones, when it was their complacency that brought about most of the world's problems.
You are so spot on with that statement. They were mentioning that at victory family church's saturday service yesterday. It's lack of action on the older generations that allow problems to remain or grow larger.
My girlfriend talks about this stuff a lot, and since she usually like boy bands like one direction, i assumed Halsey wasn't what you'd call great......but holy shit this is good.
***** if it's a stupid rude stereotype then why would you call her that. Why does it matter if ppl follow the stereotypes. We get judged for not following the stereotypes, and then we get judged *for* following them. Some ppl just.... smh
+Masked And Gaming yes it is a race? The politically correct term is Caucasian but yes, white is a race. Stereotyping IS being racist, it doesn't matter what race it is, so maybe you need to get your facts straight.
+Whitney Cavanaugh Not all stereotypes are racist. Stereotypes are stereotypes. Racism is racism. that wasn't really racist imo. more stereotypical. Racism is more like thinking a race is superior or inferior.
+KkLucky no you are right, I am sorry I included every stereotype like that, but if a stereotype takes into account the race of someone, saying that they'll be better or worse at something, then yes it is racism. Also to the other reply, a 'white' girl is a race, just as much as an 'black' girl or any other race you could take a stab at.
OK kids I'm almost 50... but I'm a big fan of Halsey.. she has a edge and I am not going to lose a second of what she is going to bring to our culture of female artists..She is the New Americana...
my mom caught me singing this in the car once and told me I can't sing it so I was like, "WE ARE THE NEW AMERICANA, MY MOM WON'T LET ME SING THIS PART!"
0:59 This sent a shiver down my spine form. How much it sounds like me and the words "but he could never love somebody's daughter..." yeah this part of the song just sang my life, and it's so pretty yet to scary.
ah throwback to those 2015 nights where halsey and melanie were the queens of tumblr and i'd chill in my room with christmas lights, blasting their music, and think i was quirky.
Her voice is so powerful but it has that sweet innocence to it and its just like Oscar material. I love her so much she is my queen. Also when brendon urie did a cover of this it was soo good I love his voice. If the y ever do a collab together I would like freak out.
Great singer. I was raised on biggie,tupac,acdc and nirvana. Funny that me and her are the same age.This sounds like our generations theme song. I love it.
Ok so I'm chewing gum and looking at other things while this is playing in a different tab and I switched back to this at the exact moment she says "what kind of bubblegum have you been blowing lately?"
I know you commented this like, two years ago, but I don't hear it. I've listened to "National Anthem" and I've (obviously) listened to this song, but I don't think they sound that alike.
This song was released 6 YEARS AGO and guess what, I heard that song for the first time a week ago 😳😱... Who ever heard this song after passed 6 years is a legend! 😀😩
This is a representation of this nation of how the old Americana is dying and it can be looked at two ways, the more we progress the more we loose in values, spirit, thinking, and well what the world think is right and what the world thinks is wrong. In turn we become more open and accepting of new ideas progression has a cost everything does. But those who let themselves not progress creates a divide gets lost in their own past soon making it their only life. But those who only concentrate in the future don't understand their own history. With every generation there is a new Americana born with different thoughts and different ideas each parting and meeting. Remember this today's good could become tomorrows evil and vice versa.
thurston james And there’s the song poets! I’ve been looking for y’all! Instead of sitting around maybe y’all can become the next Shakespe- no J.K Rowling. Because she is the 21 century Shakespeare, so be the next J.K Rowling!
When I was younger, my cousin brought his computer to my house to listen to music, and then he played this song. I actually really liked it! I’m surprise my favorite song was introduced to me from my cousin!
There's something about the beat of the song when she sings, "We are the new Americana, high on legal marijuana." That's gives me nostalgia. Idk what it is but it made me fall in love with this song.
When 0:59-1:14 resembles your crush. Fuck this shit i'm out. I don't know what the fuck just happened but i don't really care cause i'ma get the fuck out of here.
