This song makes me feel so effing good. "Don't you know I'm tired of these paint by numbers/Talk about my comfort, that's a risk I'm willing to ride to try to be happy" Fucking AMEN. Can't help but bop down the street with a big smile on my face when this one comes slipping through my headphones. Thanks Wong team for writing a song that is almost as good as therapy for me.
My favorite of all the Wong charts for sure, the chords, the vocals, the melody, the MEANING, are all inspiring in a way I never knew possible. Thank you so much for this!!!!
The Jeff Lynne vibe on the vox harmonies is stellar, but what continuously melts my brain on these tracks is the musicality and separation in those drum overheads. Keep working with the best Cory.
another legendary production by the unmatched Cory Wong. the vocalist..is the fire inside. DUAL DRUMS? YES OF COURSE. sometimes the beat must have an underline. The organ hits and dimension is born
0:20 On the edge of blowin' away I'll stay This balance game Is what I'm happy to play Must be This feeling of free Don't you know I'm tired Of these paint by numbers Talk about my comfort That's a risk I'm willing to ride To try to be happy Sounds like a plan to me Don't it sound like This is the fire that keeps me out all night And still at church on time And feeling light as anything This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright That keeps my pocket tight And somehow light as anything I'd say that life is better on my side So come and waste some time We could be light as anything Look down Do you see the ground?

Fade out It should not be up to me To say what gives you release It should be a world that you decided I keep my head in the clouds But keep my feet on the ground That's for me A world that I decided So look down Wave goodbye to the ground And watch what happens now This is the fire that keeps me out all night And still at church on time And feeling light as anything This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright That keeps my pocket tight And somehow light as anything I'd say that life is better on my side So come and waste some time We could be light as anything Won't you look down Wave goodbye to the ground And watch what happens now

Sounds so Wong, and yet so Wight
Jordan Allen class
lol
It’s spelled White. Jk! :)
It's Ripe though, isn't it?!
Wight as anything
Robbie Wulfsohn has a fantastic band called Ripe that all of you should check out immediately.
Thanks for this tip! Goon Squad is a JAM
And now Ripe has a new fan! Thanks for the heads-up!
Wow! EPIC thanks for the recommendation! LOVING IT
They are REALLY REALLY GREAT! I was looking for confirmation and I GOT IT without Googling. Thanks.
Brendon Hester thank you so much
Everyday I pick her up and my 2 and a half year old daughter asks for the happy song, this is her happy song!
John Mayer is grooving to this!
Joao Pedroza source?
John Mayer - Vultures
Sort of has a general maroon 5 vibe too, in my opinion.
That pitch correct vibe
krimi j.m. likes alot of vulf's stuff on IG
phenomenal voice
Dreadnöught__ go listen to Ripe. Hes lead vocals with them and its amazing.
Cory Wong, living proof that you don't need to play face melting solos to inspire people to play guitar!
Yeahhhhhhh.
I love it that I keep running to your comments.
He does though, just on the low...
Also not needing the most expensive guitar when you have your trusty high-school guitar that helped you win the talent show.
Except he's also able to do them face melting solos ;)
Except that he loves soloing just as much 🎸✨
This should be on a radio.
There’s a John Mayer guitar feeling somewhere there. Vocals top.
i mean it really just sounds like a Mayer song.
I thought it's autotune.
@shorabali if I heard this on shuffle I'd 100% believe it's a Mayer song (obviously trying a different pitch in his vocal approach)
The vocals are insane. What a vocie
Still in love with this piece, 5 years later...
We need another Cory and Robbie Collab!
*when 2 of your drummer friends wanna play but you're bad at saying no*
This comment is so wholesome and I keep thinking of it.
It's funny
You should see snarky puppy👉
Also funny because they’re easily the two best session drummers alive.
Zanon12 who are they?

Dude.... that’s some Mayer equivalent vultures kinda Tone... sounds righteous
THIS IS CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED.
This song couldn’t be more stuck in my head atm
FINALLY a singer that combines the looks Reggie Watts and Bob Ross!
Yeees!
Literally
(Cory Wong sounding guitar fill) killlllllllllllllled me. So good.
Robbie is such a great singer. Thanks Cory for bringing him to my attention. Killer tune, too.
Nice 90s funky, tight pop groove. Fantastic vocals, songwriting, guitar, everything!
Best song of last year. Robbie's vocal is sensational. In a just universe, this would have been seven weeks at #1 on the Billboard charts.
The positivity of this song still touches my heart. Thanks for producing something beautiful, Cory.
My favorite of all the Wong charts for sure, the chords, the vocals, the melody, the MEANING, are all inspiring in a way I never knew possible. Thank you so much for this!!!!
3:41 WAVE GOODBYE TO* THE GROUND
4:22 Nailed it!
THANKS RUclips! This just started playing randomly and absolutely made my day!!!
Wong births some of the best pop around. A true shame this isn’t played on the radio
I will always love the person who introduced me to this song.
Robbie Vocals and Cory FUNK collab is FIRE
Whole album is LIT
i mean RIPE
I can’t stop listening to this!!!! Absolutely loving it!!
The Jeff Lynne vibe on the vox harmonies is stellar, but what continuously melts my brain on these tracks is the musicality and separation in those drum overheads. Keep working with the best Cory.
I cant stop watching this song. So catchy guys voice is killer
i m listening to the song everyday until we are reaching 1M views , and then reach infinity and beyond ! is that Wong ?
This is a really great song, Cory. Vocals are phenomenal.
I literally play this song every day, thank you cory and you're team are amazing God bless you all
Fav track
I’M SEEING DOUBLE
FOUR DRUMMERS
another legendary production by the unmatched Cory Wong. the vocalist..is the fire inside. DUAL DRUMS? YES OF COURSE. sometimes the beat must have an underline. The organ hits and dimension is born
no one talking about that clean ass drumming
How does this not have 1 million views and where did I first hear this song?!!!
Thanks to Spotify I discovered this amazing song
Vulf compressor does wonder on the sonic warmth of this!
a friend told me to check this song out on spotify and I was like "Wow that sounds like Robbie from Ripe"....that makes so much sense now!
Oh yeah!!!! Man, this new album is FIRE.
The crunch is strong with this one.
yo ive been listening to this song fo2 years and I JUST noticed teh whispered vocals in the chorus
PLEASE, CORY + ROBBIE ALL DAY ALL NIGHT, EVERYWHERE, BAM! *easy clap*
I still can't believe it doesn't have a million views. It deserves to be.
Kevin MacIntire...killer bass!! WOW
Fantastic.
CD copy when tho?
I keep coming back to this one over and over. love the dynamic drumming duo! I thought they were twins for a while.... AWESOME!
Perfect radio song! Thats a compliment.
This song should be on the radio
This track is pretty... Ripe
The vocals are so nice bro
I can't stop listening to this
More songs and positivity like this in 2019 please
Cory you're rad

On the edge of blowin' away
I'll stay
This balance game
Is what I'm happy to play
Must be
This feeling of free
Don't you know I'm tired
Of these paint by numbers
Talk about my comfort
That's a risk I'm willing to ride
To try to be happy
Sounds like a plan to me
Don't it sound like
This is the fire that keeps me out all night
And still at church on time
And feeling light as anything
This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright
That keeps my pocket tight
And somehow light as anything
I'd say that life is better on my side
So come and waste some time
We could be light as anything
Look down
Do you see the ground?
Fade out
Dad says don't be out late
Stay safe
I hope that we agree on what that all means
'Cause I've been
Itching for a little escape
Don't you know I'm tired
Of these paint by numbers
Journeys to discover
Happy's just a spot in my mind
Breath a sigh of relief
Sounds like a plan to me
Don't it sound like
This is the fire that keeps me out all night
And still at church on time
And feeling light as anything
This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright
That keeps my pocket tight
And somehow light as anything
I'd say that life is better on my side
So come and waste some time
We could be light as anything
Look down
Do you see the ground?
Fade out
It should not be up to me
To say what gives you release
It should be a world that you decided
I keep my head in the clouds
But keep my feet on the ground
That's for me
A world that I decided
So look down
Wave goodbye to the ground
And watch what happens now
This is the fire that keeps me out all night
And still at church on time
And feeling light as anything
This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright
That keeps my pocket tight
And somehow light as anything
I'd say that life is better on my side
So come and waste some time
We could be light as anything
Won't you look down
Wave goodbye to the ground
And watch what happens now
I found Ripe first, then this song appeared and the vocalist sounded very familiar. Ripe and Cory Wong sound so great
Love this song
oh man I knew I recognized those vocals, SO GOOD
I love him with Ripe, and if anything his voice here is even better
What a great song, gosh
Cory Wong. You’re the man
First time hearimg this. Didnt quite know the words but man i was singing along
Aww yeah! This sounds incredible!
I'm sooooooooooo happy i discovered this song.listening to this uplifts my soul.
Thank You Cory and Team.
That is damn good.
YES!!! That's what I'm talking about
what a great voice!
Temón Locooo!
the clean vocals and guitar tone really remind me of John Mayer

Hot off tha frickin press!!!
Man this kicks!!!
This is a perfect track.
This song is such a vibe. Quickly became my favorite song 🤘🏼
What a fantastic song. So poppy yet so substantial.
It’s dumb how good this dudes voice is in this traq
Killer arrangement! OK, I'm in: get me some Wong concert tickets!
Your playing here makes me think of some kind of amazing collaboration with you and Paul Simon.
Minimalizm , to co mi się podoba i rytm. Super....
I’ve been rewatching the trailer over and over again to listen to the sample of this song. Elated it’s finally out!
Nice voice!!!!!
Love the song! Why is it not on my local radio station yet!!
My new favorite song at the moment 👌🏼
I feel the soul so bright in this song
What a voice! Oh yeah, the guitar was off the hook, as always with Cory.
I. Love. This!
Listened to this track 10 times in the last few hours let alone the last few days.
Beautiful music.
Once a day. Minimum. As a remedy.
this is a perfect song
hah! I thought the drummers were twins! but man they DO look a lot alike! awesome double drums.
This is a nice, nice song. Millennial twist on Steely Dan. I'm down with the Juluka shirt on vocalist.
Vinyl purchased! Can’t wait to get it !
lots of jhon mayer vibeees. Loving it. Been listening to you guys lately and you are awesome
This song is fire!!!
WOW! Mind blown! This is all I want to hear the rest of the day!
Love this song.
This is my favorite new song! Thank you Cory for the tasty jam!
Feels good man.
