Stars, they come and go.
They come fast, 'n slow.
They go like the last light of the sun,
All in a blaze.
And all you see is glory.
Hey, but it gets lonely there,
When there's no one here to share.
We can shake it away,
If you'll hear a story.
People lust for fame,
Like athletes in a game.
We break our collarbones,
And come up swinging.
Some of us are crowned,
Some of us are downed
Some of are lost and never found.
But most have seen it all.
They live their Lives,
In sad cafes and music halls
They always have a story
Some make it when they're young,
Before the world has done it's dirty job.
And later on, someone will say,
"You've had your day, now you must make way."
Don't they always?
But they'll never know the pain
Of living with a name you never owned.
Or the many years forgetting,
What you know too well,
That you who gave the crown,
Have been let down.
You try to make amends
Without defending
Perhaps pretending
You never saw the eyes
Of young men at twenty-five,
who followed as you walked,
Asked for autographs,
Kissed you on the cheek.
And you never could believe,
They really loved you.
Never
Some make it when they're old
Perhaps they have a soul they're not afraid to bare.
Perhaps there's nothing there.
But anyway that isn't what i meant to say
I'm meant to tell about a story
since we all have stories
but can't remember it anyways
So i can tell about the mood in the in United States today
Permeating even Switzerland
It Goes ...
[music]
But i continue anyways until i get it together
Some women have a body,
Men will want to see.
And so they put it on display.
Some people play a fine guitar.
I could listen to them play all day.
But anyway, I'm trying to tell my story.
Janis Ian told it very well,
Janis Joplin told it even better,
Billy Holiday told it even better.
We always, we always, we always have a story.
The latest story that I know is the one that i'm supposed to go out of
Feeling, nothing more than feelings,
Feelings, nothing more than feelings.
Feelings of love.
You know that?
I have never cried so hard during an animated comedy.
aint that the damn truth...I sat there thinking "I don't deserve to be devastated right now. I came here for cartoon foolery" But it truly is a masterfully done show
Safe to say at this point that the comedic bit was a plot to get us in. I have a feeling Bojack Horseman is a straight up drama. A damn good one at that.
Me too pal, me too!
You have if you have seen *that* episode of Futurama......
+WhatsHerFace005 yes Futurama is so real at times!
Harper: "Daddy?"
Bojack: "Harper."
Harper: "Where do the stars go?"
Bojack: "Oh, they're still there! We just can't see them because the sun is shining."
OH MAN STOP!!! :'(
That foreshadowing tho
shit dude right in the feelings
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa (crying)
CAN'T STOP CRYING😭
"See, Sarah Lynn? We're not doomed. In the great, grand scheme of things, we're just tiny specks that will one day be forgotten. So it doesn't matter what we did in the past, or how we'll be remembered. The only thing that matters is right now, this moment, this one spectacular moment we are sharing together. Right, Sarah Lynn? Sarah Lynn? ... Sarah Lynn?"
"This isn't going to end well!!!"
"Now you see me, now you doooonnnnnn't"
Oh wait, wrong show...
I love how special she made this song sound. It really seems like she's singing the story of her life, she's singing from the bottom of her heart. What a talented lady.
Sam Livermore She died way too soon
She is so emotional when singing, she forgets what she should and shouldn’t say/sing but she continues anyway until she gets it together. Pure honesty of this song and Bojack in that moment leaves me speechless and filled with tears
This was the first time I full-on teared up watching Bojack.
Perfect song to close such a brilliant, yet depressingly real season
That's too much man
At first I hoped season 3 would not get so deep. i am glad it did. season 2 got deep but season 3 pulled it off better.
Oh man, bojack season 3 just totally broke me. I really didn't know what to expect but that season finale really hit the spot.
CCScorseseVideos for me it was "sarah lynn? ... sarah lynn?"
Bojack is the best show ever
it’s the kind of show that reminds you everyone’s gonna die and you have nothing good enough to remember,and nothing bad enough that you want to forget, just worthless shits
Nina Simone told it even better.
IsiahGames Nina Simone told it best
Nina simone didnt write most of the song 😂
What song of Joplin would she be referring to? Any idea?
@@gonssavm4048 No song- Life-death.
@@debra13 exactly that. I think she is refering to the depth of joplin's and holiday's emotional expressions via music. And I agree with nina, Holiday is just so moving to me. The pain that comes through her music is unavoidable but somehow comforting.
Back in the 90s, I was in a very famous TV show...
😂😂😂 damn you
god damn it I am crying so much!! this tv show is too good
Me too!!
At first I hoped season 3 would not get so deep. i am glad it did. season 2 got deep but season 3 pulled it off better.
Me 3 !
"I can't do this again. This isn't right."
*cliche greeting*
Wo u watch Bojack?
@@rang4889 of course he does
Didn’t expect to see you here
Bruh, where Bojack retrospective part 2?
*Btw take your time on it cause we all love you, Schaff :)*
They picked such an amazing and fitting song for Bojack Horseman. The struggle of aspiring to fame and fixating on building a legacy in order to bring happiness is so wonderfully expressed in this song and in the show. What am I supposed to do while I wait for the next season?
Build your own story.
+Roy great repsonse
Everyone has a story. What will yours be?
I think I'm gona play this song when I commit suicide
livestream it please
"It gets easier. Every day it gets a little easier. But you got to do it every day. That's the hard part. But it does get easier."
Bojack Horseman is a masterpiece.
So many Bojack comments. I want to respond to them all. This song is so perfect for such a great show for its season 3 finale. RIP Sarah Lynn. And remember Bojack. When your sad, keep running. Don't look back. The past doesn't matter anymore. All that matters is what is ahead of you, and the beautiful moments you share with others in the moment. It gets easier. Everyday it gets a little easier. But that's the hard part. You have to do it everyday, but it does get easier. Run Bojack. Run and be responsible for your long lost happiness.
this comment was so beautiful I screenshot it.
''Everyday it gets a little easier. But that's the hard part. You have to do it everyday.'' oh shit, im crying
Holy shit..you just made me realize why they used the horses running with no dialouge
Todd's rant at bojack and Sara Lynn's death finally woke up Bojack. Bojack just keep trying you can fix your friendships and I hope they will in season 4.
I just logged to give you my like
Amazing that Janis Ian wrote this song before the age of 23. Its words are so world-weary, though I suppose she saw more of the world at age 14 than most do until much older. It's a perfect marriage to hear her words voiced with Nina Simone's experienced gravitas.
"I really wanted you to like me Diane"
"I know"
I'm glad they used this, Miss Simone's story and the song itself both really, really fit.
So, like last year, I know people will rush here and before they get here, I just wanted to say that I hope it affected you the way it affected me.
U talkin about bojack??
Me too man. Me too.
this definitely reflected on bojack past and present...I wish Sarah didn't have to die
+Jordan H. I just saw the ending of season 3..I broke out In tears because you kinda root for him. And never works..and that hurts.
i knew you were talking about Bojack, i just did, lol
She's so brilliant, she had a hard life, she was strong as she was fraggle, i just wish that she had more of the beauty of life because she deserved so more, i think......
I've never felt so simultaneously saddened for and awed by any person before or after her. So much beauty put in the world and so much pain received.
she was the fraggliest ... :'(
The Rock?
@@FleaMcP NOTHING CAN GO WRONG
Thanks Bojack. For reminding me how great Nina Simone is. Every word is full of empathy and pain. Lovely woman and singer.
season 3 was beautiful
Totally agree!
it was awesome!!! L:D
One of the best seasons of any tv show ever. Immediately rewatching it.
At first I hoped season 3 would not get so deep. i am glad it did. season 2 got deep but season 3 pulled it off better.
you hoped it wouldn't get deep?? What even is the show without depth?
It's a depressing, but incredibly calming and genuine song, you can hear the unsteady breathing in hear voice showing just how real singing this song feels for her. I love how upsetting and amazing yet simple this song feels and I listen to it a lot
Don't worry Bojack, we're all running away from something. Some of us just don't know it yet.
"When you get sad, you run straight ahead and you keep running forward, no matter what. There are people in your life who are gonna hold you back, slow you down, but you don't let them. Don't stop running and don't you ever look behind you. There's nothing for you behind you. All that exists is what's ahead."
it's almost like they wrote the show around this song, that's how relevant the lyrics are.
Thats what i was thinking, weirdly tho 5 yrs later how are you
"The latest story that I know is the one I'm supposed to go out with."
This show is beyond relatable. Truly captures and fully encapsulates the struggles of anyone living. You don't have to be famous you don't have to be poor. You don't even have to be a human. You just see and understand pain when someone feels it in the show.
I wonder what the comments were like before Bojack Horseman
Mr. KingAwesome tHANK yoU
I love bojack horseman myself, but this song is a fucking masterpiece. I'm kinda tired of seeing "I wanna be an architect :(((" and I want to see more comments on Nina Simone's life, legacy, and general genius.
+Masuna My youngest child loves Nina Simone, and has done since they were 8, when I introduced them to her. L is 11 now, and a prickly, perpetually late, frustrating kid, but an incredibly deep and beautiful soul. So glad I introduced Nina when I did.
Probably... well, this song is perfect for Checking out
@@MasunaMasu original song is by janis ian
Me too honestly.
i deal with depression and this show easily conveys how people really feel when depressed. this show really resonates with me.
I battled depression earlier in my life. I wish I had this show to help lmao.
Dude, me too. However, I also noticed it can almost enable my depression as well. Fantastic show, I just need to be careful how much and when I binge watch this show. Probably watched all 6 seasons at least a dozen times now. (Don't judge me)
This is a song not a show
Ths most human show I have ever seen is about a horse
I think I speak for everyone when I say that bojack horseman is one of the greatest cartoons ever. Funny jokes, true messages and meanings and deep moral that we can all look too. Bojack just feels complete
Excellent song choice for the ending of season 3 of Bojack horseman. The lyrics sync up to the meaning of that episode and the entire season. Simply phenomenal.
As much as I enjoy bojack, fill the comment section with respect for this woman with admiration for how elegantly moving her artistry was before she left the earth; Nina was truly a star
I want to be an architect,
do you want me to cry again, is that what you want ?!
The tears will never stop
I work in an architecture office. I honestly didn't know how to feel about that.
Just when I stopped crying.
im studing architecture... and believe me... she wasnt to be an architec haha
I absolutely love this. People constantly look at the rich, the famous, and think "wow, their lives are just perfect!" When they couldn't be further from the truth. Every one has their problems. Insecurities, failures, fears, money or no money. For me, this song is telling us to empathise instead of immediately assuming others have it better.
An incredible voice for an incredible woman. Such a beautiful performance. It sounds like it was recorded live and the utter silence after the welcoming applause is so telling. Her audience is spellbound, whether hearing her live or listening to her years later on youtube.
Wes this is exactly what I was thinking! This is imo one of the most powerful performance I’ve ever heard before
I’ve always loved Nina Simone, but never heard this song before Bojack. That episode, Nina’s voice, the lyrics....just beautiful. I definitely cried.
"I want to be just like you when I grow up"
"Like me?"
Damn....
Connie Francis' "I Will Wait for You"
Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt"
And Now Nina Simone's "Stars"
All songs that perfectly captured the impact of amazing and emotional moments in animation. All beautiful scenes accompanied by beautiful songs.
1st and 2nd are 'Futurama' and 'RIck and Morty'?
Kiryl Puchyk And third is Bojack Horseman.
Obviously :)
Ronnoc Neerb This song was written by Janis Ian.
in what animations those songs were featured?
i've felt in love with this song. i love how Simone sings it, i love the instrumental, i love the lyrics, how genuine they are and the loneliness in them. i love how it fits that BJ episode/season finale and Bojack's character in general.
i can't help but think there's something wrong with me tho, bc even after listening to those lyrics, i still wish i could relate to them more closely. i still wish for that stardom. i still wish i could experience it all for myself and i just hate to be this way.
"People lust for fame,
Like athletes in a game."
You are Secretariat.
i dont know of any other cartoons that have real drama and can affect us emotionally like this series of Bojack did... Whilst still remaining totally free of all usual conventions and sense of reality - awesome stuff, and I love this song!
Moral Orel, and I've heard Rick and Morty throws punches but I haven't caught up on the latter since its first episode. I'm changing that soon.
+Joe F Rick and Morty doesn't quite have a story like Bojack, but the finale of season 2 is kind of "emotional" I guess.
I actually watched Rick and Morty over the last weekend, and you're right. In its right, it's a fantastic show but it's not AS emotional as BoJack and I don't think that is what its intent is. I do find it more consistent than BoJack though.
Charles Wheeler Steven universe.
the og futurama, although that's from way back when cartoons weren't supposed to have complex stories, but many of their episodes made me cry a lot
Another reason to love bojack horseman. Never knew about this song before watching the show. And the scene was perfect.
can't
stop
listening
O shit its you what up
You have to click where it says "Pause"
as a young man at 25, this resonates with me.
I still come back to this song, it’s one of the only pieces of art that touches me so hard.
I really didn't expect that for Sarah lyn :(
Louise Belcher is next
*****
Janice Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix, Kurt Cobain p.s. Lindsey Lohan died? Shit
*****
That's funny almost disappointed "no... she's still alive..."
never going to be able to watch gravity falls again without getting sad :'(
I wasn´t expect that too.... I don´t like her but that broke my heart
Sarah Lynn, Amy Winehouse, Miley Cyrus, or Brittney Spears. The same story captured by Nina Simone, Stars - Live at Montreaux, 1976 - "the latest story that I know is the one I'm 'sposed to go out with". Heart breaking and beautiful, as was Nina. Surprised that Bojack Horseman could conjur such resonant, heartwrenching emotions, history reliving itself perpetually with these joked-about talented women, royalty and culture makers abandoned, ending up dead or obscure in cold european cities. Trying to answer - what happened, miss simone? Such beauty and sadness.
Well said.
I'm glad Brittney Spears at least seems to be making her way as an adult talent. She is still greatly respected among many circles, even after going through the turbulence of young fame.
Joseph Bochenek don't forget the Olsen twins, growing up on Full House, I see them more as Sara Lynn
god its been like three years and this still fucks me up bad
i just realized after watching it a second time, but in the opening credits to the season finale, sarah lynn isnt in her usual spot by the tv at the house party.
VvVLuffy the opening scene is constantly changing, bojack is become more and more alone
this song needs more recognition
Rest in peace Nina Simone and Janis Joplin.
Damn 8 years ago, still alive?
We always have a story.
I believe this version sung by Nina Simone is one of the best and the simplicity of just the piano and her make it so emotional
Nina simone was an incredible human being. 😪
Cette chanson, les harmonies, la voix de Nina, son regard sondent la profondeur de nos âmes. Et je pleure mais ce n'est pas de la tristesse. Ce n'est pas de la mélancolie ... C'est autre chose et je ne sais pas quoi.
What a beautiful way to end another chapter.
This really brings back the song. Now it's midnight here and I can't make myself to sleep.
This song gives me chills. It’s so breathtaking
Oh my goodness, I'm on silent listening over and over again, I promise I replied back to her and ask a couple of questions a few times, oh lord what a beautiful song!
GOD DAHMIT BOJACK I THOUGHT THIS WAS A COMEDY, I NEED TO GO TAKE A SHOWER SO I CAN'T TELL IF I'M CRYING OR NOT
Such a beautifully heartwrenching track. Simone was truly a queen of song and always will be.
I didn't tear up or cry on the ending of season 3. But when I heard this song, I cried. This song reflects bojack so much.
Hope it affected you guys as much as it affected me........ "Fuck man. What's left to say."
Seriously 😪 it was pretty emotional like I was speechless
just the fact Todd was telling bojack what he was killed me
The meaning of fuck in the series is whenever bojack completely destroys one of his relationships beyond repair. Just the fact that Todd was the one that said that it's sad
Which version is this?
Who will say it next? Diane? Mr. Peanutbutter? Himself?
"We Always have a Story"
This is sooooo sad, but wonderful. In this song I almost feel like Nina is becoming transparent in the sense that we really see all of her, nothing is hidden, we see and hear everything that is lurking inside of her.
I don’t know her personally, so it all is just a feeling I have, but I truly love Nina Simone as an artist and this song really is the most beautiful one for me.
Beautiful, from a time before everyone had to be perfect to express themselves. True beauty comes from having lived the life you are singing about. This song is wonderful, and if you are someone out there worrying about what people think about you and what you do...well you gotta be easy on yourself and love your faults. You are you. Your life is your life. Celebrate it!!!
An absolutely soul wrenching song. I adore Nina and I love this song.
One of the best scenes in television history in my opinion.
What a song!
Damn 9 years ago, still alive?
4:56 is where I started to press on the gas
It was a Tesla, it doesn't use gas.
this song literally made me cry....
Beautiful . Beautiful . Beautiful . Thank You .
When I heard Nina Simone's at the end of season 3 of bojack horseman literal tears were in my eyes
bojack horseman was everything that was missing in TV today and knowing how being a famous celebrity has it's ups and downs and the constant spiral and how flawed everyone is in life thank you.
I found this song in keyboarding class…then two years later in bojack however you got here be glad your here to hear her story
i could listen to this song all day...
I heard this song on a cartoon called, "BoJack Horseman," I love this...I looked and looked, and found this here, on TH-cam. Ms Simone, this is beautiful...
season 3 was a masterpiece man
thank you, nina, for just existing, blessing us.
HOW CAN THEY PICK SONGS SO FITTING LIKE EVERY SONG IN THIS SHOW IS GREAT
Bojack will be one of those shows being discussed and loved decades after. Fucking shaking.
I'd give anything to see a Nina Simone movie done the right way.
protectyaneck__ There's a documentary about her on Netflix. It's definitely done the right way. You must watch it.
I believe it's called "Nina." Very good.
I haven't felt this in so long its like sadness but also happiness because Bojack is so broken and society is messed up but damn these emotions and moments and thoughts are beautiful
Great song of Janis Ian.
Thank you Nina, you are sorely missed in this lifetime..
This song helps me when I'm depressed.
Thanks Bojack Horseman for introducing me to this song.
Yeah, sometimes I need as well a bit of encouragement when trying to checking out...
You should give “Take Me Somewhere Nice” by Mogwai a listen. I like these kind of songs.
A horse man made me cry, and this song helped. :'(
And holy crap, that *spoiler* that called *spoiler* at the end. Who the hell was that?!
The theory is that it is his daughter. He mentioned about people he paid in the past not getting abortions, or so he thinks.
i hope i wake up happy
"I want to be an architect."
Ashley Powers stop😭😭
I'm not crying, you're crying.
Damn ninjas cutting onions
Ashley P fuCk I’m nOt cryiNg I SweAr
STOOOPPPP NO DONT DO SARAH LYNN LIKE THAT
this is *sobs* too much man
Watching Bojack means that for 20 minutes I’m watching someone who’s more fucked up than I am. That’s comforting.
To think a show about a self hating, alcoholic, addict, narcissistic, abused and abusive anthropomorphic horse would ever do such intensely emotional things.. that's too much man. Don't tell me it's a comedy. It's a drama with comedic aspects. And a goddamn amazing one at that.
I think what really makes the ending so sad is the sound of the record still spinning over the credits after the song ends.
Thanks Miriam. Nicely put together. Boy, this song could have been written for her - you know she's feeling it. Simone was a one off - there was never anyone like her before or since. One of the greatest musical artists of all times.
I think it's safe to say that everyone is here for the same reason. Bojack Horseman is a national treasure. What was once a mediocre animated comedy has become so much more. The emotional impact this show has had on me over the past year is tremendous, and I'm not sure where I'd be without it. Its comforting really, being able to watch someone elses life destroyed. It's almost spiritual, even if it's just a show about a cartoon horse. Watching Bojack Horseman helps me to forget about my shitty life. It makes me feel better knowing that my life could never get as fucked up or depressing as Bojack Horseman's. Here's to another 4 seasons.
I love nina simone I knew it was her when I heard it on Bojack Horseman. It just really set the moment
rest in peace janis japlin.
This is beyond ridiculously amazingly beautiful.
and i could listen your music day and night .
my queen
cuando bojack escapa de sus problemas y de repente ve a un grupo de caballos siendo solo caballos salvajes, con este tema de fondo... es lo mejor que he visto en años!
No entendi lo de los caballos pero con la cancion y cuando acelera y cierra los ojos me fui a la mierda
yo tampoco entendì muy bien...creo que debe querer mostrar que en la simpleza esta la felicidad
4:57 Bojack Horseman's best scene ever starts playing
Absolutely another ❤masterpiece ❤
I am still so messed up over the season. I definitely thought he was going to die.
"Daddy, where do the stars go?"
"Oh, they're still there. We just can't see them because the sun is shining."
