the end of humanity is only terrifying because so much of what counts as humanity is amazing, we only care about it ending because it's worth caring about at all
The idea that one day the sun will burn out and destroy what ever is left of us, and nobody will ever be able to decipher the scattered ashes.... Is beautiful to me.
I wrote a Dutch poem about this concept: "Het eind der tijden" Oh het eind der tijden, Wat ben je fascinerend Ons continu belerend, vernederend en snerend Altijd somber, maar nooit bevreesd De motor van alle mensen in je macht Oh het eind der tijden, Wat maak je het leven moeilijk Maar oh zo prachtig, alles heeft betekenis en tegelijkertijd niks Je laat ons verdwalen, naar ongekende laagtes dalen Oh het eind der tijden, Wat lust ik je rauw Alles wordt door jouw toedoen zo ongelofelijk grijs en grauw Oh het eind der tijden, Het moest eens afgelopen zijn Let me translate: "The end of times" Oh the end of times, How fascinating you are With your constant lecturing, humiliating and sneering Always dark, but never scared The driving force of all the people in your power Oh the end of times, How hard you make our lives But oh so lovely, everything has meaning and at the same time nothing You get us lost and push us to incredible lows Oh the end of times, I could eat you alive Because of you everything turns so moody and grey Oh the end of times, It has to be over one day
If there is ever a nuclear disaster. How beautiful would it be listening to the last verse alongside everyone. They should change the scheduled doomsday programming to this song.
"I liked the dancing and the music and the sea foam on the shore I wish the writers had been kind enough to sprinkle that in more 'Cause the war bits and the poverty, I wasn't a fan of But I really dug on all the parts where humans fell in love" - likewise
In any other era this is would be seen as a dark and pessimistic song but now we’ve all accepted our inevitable downfall so This is actually incredibly warming and comforting
When I heard the final verse on tiktok it made me cry and for some reason I thought I could make it through the whole song without crying again. Joke’s on me I never stopped crying in the first place
Just imagine if the world was catching on fire and bombs were falling from the sky, you were sitting outside watching the fire spread closer to you but you weren’t scared or crying, you were happy because you were listening to this very sweet song that made you brave and not scared at all, and then it all went black.
This is currently my favorite song, and it only has EIGHTY THOUSAND VIEWS? This is so hauntingly beautiful. Literally every lyric is a new slap in the face, it's so good.
this is my child's lullaby, ive sung it to him since before he was born and hes just turned three. some might think its too sad sounding for a bedtime lullaby and thats okay, but we love it. especially "with a clicker in his hand" hits so close to home, as my grandfather (who my child is named after) who raised me called the remote a clicker. thank you so much for this song
Same friend same, but in my defence tiktok's banned in my country. Heard this lovely song for the first time on a charming asmr video and had to search it up immediately, guess the universe doesn't want me to sleep tonight, my insomniac nights must be a comic relief for the aliens, huh?
I just want to say how incredibly this song has been mixed for listening to in landscape on iPhone? It sounds like the guitar is playing BEHIND me, I feel right in the middle of the song. I’ve not heard a song mixed so well for the platform ever! If you are listening right now please flip your phone to landscape and enjoy! Xx
I thought that "everyone's a villain who just looks out for their own" was gonna be followed by "and be careful picking favorites cause this shows like game of thrones"
Ever since I heard this on TikTok, I haven't been able to get it out of my head. Such a lovely song. Despite the horror that comes with the end of humanity, this song makes it into an intriguing and beautiful thought. Well done!
I dont have have a tiktok account, so i couldnt express how much i loved it there, and i cant even put into words how this song makes me feel. Its just so well put together, and the lyrics are beautiful. Overall an incredibly amazing song
As an Israeli with this whole chaos going on right now around me this song speaks to me in such a deep level that I cant even explain, and somehow it's soothing whilst still saying everything quite bluntly. Amazing ❤ and thank you
@@NoNameEst1992 the past few days were horid in ways I didn't even think were possible... Many people I know lost loved ones or have loved ones missing. But trying to do my best helping where I can and staying strong, and I know in my heart things will be OK at the end. Thank you for replying ❤️🇮🇱
I'm so glad I popped in with Nicole T.'s raid last week. I dig your music so much. Being a musician myself, this inspires me to get back to writing. Thank you Philip 💟 Love from Mars!
Dude, how is your music and singing and concepts so beautifil? You made me cry and feel so much joy. This is what it means to be human, yeah, I feel it, we all do I believe. Thank you.
I feel like crying...this is one of the most touching things I've ever heard ugh bro i was supposed to have a good day today (just kidding this is beautiful. Thank you for posting it in full for us all to listen to.) My favorite part was "i liked the dancing and the music and the seafoam on the shore/ i wish the writers had been kind enough to sprinkle that in more" me too, aliens. Me too.
I don't know whether to be horrified and sobbing, hesitantly happy and smiling, or just empty. This song is so visceral in how the human race being perceived by aliens is treated like some reality TV show with an awful script and how it makes sense. Everything is so complicated and dramatic and, much like reality TV, I never know who to root for. The world is messy and it scares me. Everything seems to be collapsing and it feels like we're powerless to stop it. We may only have a couple seasons more and that horrifies me, but it's not like humanity has nothing to offer. There's a lot of trashy bits, but there's also some good bits. This songs puts the same fear in me that I had when I was a young child and spontaneously had the thought that an asteroid could destroy us or the sun could explode. It also gives me the feeling I had after getting through brain surgery and feeling like I was brushing against death's hand. This is a beautiful song and I hate it. Sorry for getting personal.
The end of humanity is such a terrifying thought, yet you turned it into one of the most beautiful songs i’ve ever heard. Thank you so much
the end of humanity is only terrifying because so much of what counts as humanity is amazing, we only care about it ending because it's worth caring about at all
The idea that one day the sun will burn out and destroy what ever is left of us, and nobody will ever be able to decipher the scattered ashes.... Is beautiful to me.
I am waiting to see your face on that Day 😂😂😂😂
I wrote a Dutch poem about this concept:
"Het eind der tijden"
Oh het eind der tijden,
Wat ben je fascinerend
Ons continu belerend, vernederend en snerend
Altijd somber, maar nooit bevreesd
De motor van alle mensen in je macht
Oh het eind der tijden,
Wat maak je het leven moeilijk
Maar oh zo prachtig, alles heeft betekenis en tegelijkertijd niks
Je laat ons verdwalen, naar ongekende laagtes dalen
Oh het eind der tijden,
Wat lust ik je rauw
Alles wordt door jouw toedoen zo ongelofelijk grijs en grauw
Oh het eind der tijden,
Het moest eens afgelopen zijn
Let me translate:
"The end of times"
Oh the end of times,
How fascinating you are
With your constant lecturing, humiliating and sneering
Always dark, but never scared
The driving force of all the people in your power
Oh the end of times,
How hard you make our lives
But oh so lovely, everything has meaning and at the same time nothing
You get us lost and push us to incredible lows
Oh the end of times,
I could eat you alive
Because of you everything turns so moody and grey
Oh the end of times,
It has to be over one day
I mean it'll happen regardless of what we try to do to prevent it so it's pointless to be scared of it
0:00 - 3:23 the best part
wait... that's totally legal and very clever.
@@thaverex agreed
Mm hmm. Facts
how did you get an extra second???
@volksanti I disagree my fav part was more 00:00 till 3:23 tho
If there is ever a nuclear disaster. How beautiful would it be listening to the last verse alongside everyone. They should change the scheduled doomsday programming to this song.
I’ll keep it in mind and play it if I’m still a round, when the world ends. I’ll look out into the sky and think “We had a good run”
Hum... we might be closer than we thought before
Aye if it happens this is how imma go out with a spliff in my mouth a cuppa tea in my hand and this tune just vibin away
If this song or jamiroquai's virtual insanity aren't put in the background of nuclear war, I ain't participating.
It gives me "I built a friend" vibe that I adore
I love I built a friend
“The show’s in multicolor but it acts so black and white”
Genius writing
"I liked the dancing and the music and the sea foam on the shore
I wish the writers had been kind enough to sprinkle that in more
'Cause the war bits and the poverty, I wasn't a fan of
But I really dug on all the parts where humans fell in love"
- likewise
The best song ever ... AND IM IN IT?!?!!
All of us are in it
Are we both the villain who looks out 4 there own?!?!
Some songs just hit different... this is one of them 🥲❤️
Somehow capturing the tenuous fragility of humanity alongside it's optimism and hopeful sentimentality. A heartache that hurts so good!
never before has an existential crisis had such bangin tunes to play in the background. amazing song, man. like, really.
never before have I heard something as weirdly powerful as "they might only have a couple seasons more"
Metaphors are powerful
I don't know why, but the line "Earth was decent, 7/10" hit the hardest.
this song is just perfect
Was just about to comment that
In any other era this is would be seen as a dark and pessimistic song but now we’ve all accepted our inevitable downfall so This is actually incredibly warming and comforting
When I heard the final verse on tiktok it made me cry and for some reason I thought I could make it through the whole song without crying again. Joke’s on me I never stopped crying in the first place
I’ve listened to it so many times now and I nearly always cry - it’s beautiful
I loved the remixed version. I hope he sees it and they produce a full version together. :)
Just imagine if the world was catching on fire and bombs were falling from the sky, you were sitting outside watching the fire spread closer to you but you weren’t scared or crying, you were happy because you were listening to this very sweet song that made you brave and not scared at all, and then it all went black.
The perfect end
Listening to this with broken headphones gives me so many feelings
Same
same
This honestly deserves a grammy
im in love, thats the best song ive ever heard.
You're a wonderful lyricist, and I think if the aliens are listening, this song's probably a hit in outer space.
This song is really soothing, my anxiety thanks you. I now know what to play when someone asks for my favorite song :)
I literally can’t sing along with this without crying I love it so much
This is currently my favorite song, and it only has EIGHTY THOUSAND VIEWS? This is so hauntingly beautiful. Literally every lyric is a new slap in the face, it's so good.
Saw the tiktok of the last verse and immediately came to listen 🥺
Same, friend. Instantly hooked
Saaame
ye same.
Same
Me too!! Lol!
This is incredible, the imagery is so creative and strong, and it has such a comforting but sad tone
this is my child's lullaby, ive sung it to him since before he was born and hes just turned three. some might think its too sad sounding for a bedtime lullaby and thats okay, but we love it. especially "with a clicker in his hand" hits so close to home, as my grandfather (who my child is named after) who raised me called the remote a clicker. thank you so much for this song
Why am I always two years late to every perfect thing on internet?
Same friend same, but in my defence tiktok's banned in my country.
Heard this lovely song for the first time on a charming asmr video and had to search it up immediately, guess the universe doesn't want me to sleep tonight, my insomniac nights must be a comic relief for the aliens, huh?
This guy be breaking the fourth wall
This song has been stuck in my head all day
Same! Well...I also haven't stopped playing it. So there's that.
easily one of my favourite songs ever written
This song gives me chills 🥰🥰🥰... Looks like it's the only one I'll be listening to for the foreseeable future 👌🏾 Perfection
I just want to say how incredibly this song has been mixed for listening to in landscape on iPhone?

Man I love this dude’s music! Such a good song!

You are going places, young man! This is brilliant. Discovered you on tik-tok just now and I’m a big fan. Instant results!!
IVE WAITED SO LONG
OMG THE people talking in the background
for some reason this song gives me a lot of comfort
Y’all know when something is so beautiful that you cry?
This is comfort music
I thought that "everyone's a villain who just looks out for their own" was gonna be followed by "and be careful picking favorites cause this shows like game of thrones"
Real
Okay this comment made me chuckle 🤭 😊
Such a playful sounding song with such deep lyrics my god the writing is immaculate
Ever since I heard this on TikTok, I haven't been able to get it out of my head. Such a lovely song. Despite the horror that comes with the end of humanity, this song makes it into an intriguing and beautiful thought. Well done!
One of the best lyrics ever written, seriously dude
I dont have have a tiktok account, so i couldnt express how much i loved it there, and i cant even put into words how this song makes me feel. Its just so well put together, and the lyrics are beautiful. Overall an incredibly amazing song
I’m 45 years old and you made me cry on my second listen. Beautiful.
This song is beautiful

@@NoNameEst1992thank you so much, you have no idea what it means to us 🇮🇱❤️ 🇬🇧
Someone else already put this up under a random account, might want to report them- I had to go on a search for the legit one! This song is awesome 💖
I’m sobbing in my bed, I really wish I could go back to that time when I thought the only thing that could end humanity was the sun dying...
I love this song so much
Thank you so much for this ☺️ I’m going to set this as my alarm so it can be my theme song ☺️
I'M SO HAPPY THIS IS ON RUclips NOW
Reminds me so much of Simon and Garfunkel ❤. Amazing song🤗
I love this song so much, it makes me feel loved and seen :)
Heard this in a random short by bellisbotanicals. I am in love. Instant sub.

Absolutely beautiful storytelling in these songs
This is the best song I’ve ever heard
This is so incredibly beautiful. Thank you for making this song. You’re amazing
this song is everything :,))))))
I love this song!
Can't listen to this without crying, very cathartic
I went 2 years without knowing this song exists. I feel like Earth's writers should've had put this on a bit more often
I keep trying to get through this with dry eyes. Can’t do it. So lovely.
I'm so glad I popped in with Nicole T.'s raid last week. I dig your music so much. Being a musician myself, this inspires me to get back to writing. Thank you Philip 💟 Love from Mars!
This is my favourite song now!❤️
I’m so happy it’s finally out! Can’t wait to listen to it over and over! 🌍 📺 ❤️ 🧺 🐀
A tv, a basket, a rat…… what is the reason?
@@watermelooonseeds1822 Tv show called Earth and the Laundry Rats (In my apartment)
Dude, how is your music and singing and concepts so beautifil?
You made me cry and feel so much joy. This is what it means to be human, yeah, I feel it, we all do I believe.
Thank you.
I feel like crying...this is one of the most touching things I've ever heard ugh bro i was supposed to have a good day today (just kidding this is beautiful. Thank you for posting it in full for us all to listen to.) My favorite part was "i liked the dancing and the music and the seafoam on the shore/ i wish the writers had been kind enough to sprinkle that in more" me too, aliens. Me too.
I absolutely love the deeper meaning of pointlessness throughout the song… super well put together.
❤ Music is still beautiful!! Thank you❤
Goosebumps and tears. Thank you.
Love these lyrics. Great angle. One of those ‘I wish I’d thought of that’ songs. 👏👏👏👏👏👽❤️
I'm in tears this is beautiful
Aw i absolutely love the full song
Damn I got goosebumps when he said "earth was decent, seven out of 10"...😮
