Are you a content creator or a content consumer? post relatable lyrics in my comments - and make sure to save it to playlists on your favorite streaming service! ffm.to/idolize
Being both a consumer and creator (but on a somewhat smaller scale) has been an interesting journey for me to say the least. It's very rare for me these days to get caught up in idolizing others, or to hold them to this standard of constant perfection like they're nothing but a machine that's trying to appease the algorithm. My creative endeavors have made me feel that to some degree in the past (and bordering on toxic a handful of times), and I know that it's not fair to be seen as nothing but a machine who has to constantly push out content. Thank you for all that you do, Caleb! Your talents and skills are valuable
Hi Caleb,
I'm not sure if you remember me but my name is Stavros and I met u at kumoricon
The song wasn't bad it had a solid beat though a bit repetitive throughout the chorus other than that the song was pretty good to listen to
We need a Tomoya Ohtani - Undefeatable (Feat. Kellin Quinn)
“Were you told to subscribe to lies” and “bring a tithe to the altar of success” both hit so hard. I want to believe what people put forth but I can’t. So many do horrible things behind closed doors. And, I’ve tried to hard to get I to content creation. But every time I feel fake because I’m following others’ plan to success
I don't have any clever meme or roast for this comment. I'm just so proud of this song and glad I got to co-write & produce it 😍
This song and Bait feel like companion songs telling a very influencer story and I dig it.
It's okay, Jon. I'll roast myself.
@@CalebHyles Please don’t, you’re already too hot as is. *Finger guns*
Great job, guys. You've created another masterpiece
Agreed.
that final chorus dude
chills
Thank you, dad ❤️🙏
@@CalebHyles IRL dad or internet dad? Papa Hyles must have raised you right.
"You and I are more than just numbers on the screen", such powerful lyrics.
Words can be more powerful than we know. But that is why we choose then so carefully.
@@Shadow_dweler True. Sometimes words can hurt more than any wound.
@@henriqueabreu9706 but they can also be the thing that heals them
@@Shadow_dweler Absolutely.
1:30 very powerful part indeed. The analytics, ideas and YT stuff feels like sometimes we are dehumanizing ourselves or even our audiences
🙏 that's how it feels sometimes, for sure
That is how the world these days work and youtube is just becoming more like a business where creators are employees with quotas to reach. The freedom to create and explore different topics slowly fading in the stream lined ideology. This song holds very good message wish more people saw it.
Ι was in Twitch when they were recording this song. It's been polished but it still has the heart it had when Caleb first performed it. This journey of seeing some trully resonant music being created from scratch to release has been wonderful
Me too I can’t wait for the others to come out, if they ever do
@@ReverseBacktwo they're all coming out 😊
This is actually really relatable in a number of ways even if you aren’t a content creator because we are expected to never have flaws a lot (at least that’s how I see a lot of the millennial generation ) we are always on a tightrope told what to do and not to do to keeps our jobs, to prevent people from using things against us or even if we present ourselves a certain way. One picture or post from Facebook Twitter tumblr wherever that can be taken out of context and you’re in kangaroo court when your friends are now claiming that you were fake terrible or manipulative. How one wrong word makes it seem like you were mocking a group when it reality it was sarcasm meant to show how terrible something actually is, you are never allowed to be anything but the picture perfect version of what others want of you and it sucks. You are always pressured and about to break not knowing if something you do will be a success or a tremendously huge failure just because of one misstep, sorry I’m getting all rambler. I’m glad I finally got a chance to listen to this in detail. And I can’t think of any lyrics right now but I’d say this is up with LA Devotee in terms of the message of how in your case social media and in Panic! case Hollywood like Celebrity Status can effect people (there are other songs too and I have too short term of a memory to remember song lyrics from other songs let alone yours to pick out what I liked the most. Again sorry that I ramble) great job Caleb!
This song is so freaking powerful!!! Caleb you are an incredible and far more than numbers on a screen. All you are and all you want and will become are real, true and powerful! Never forget your worth, never be what others think you are because in the end all are equal in the eye of the maker. Whether our time is limited or extended, the way we are going as a race is towards nothing but destruction. Kindness, understanding and mercy are the only way we can truly have a future.
To any who read this I hope you are able to see that all you are is worth more than anything material can devise. You are of infinite value, never let the world determine who you are. You are able to be whatever you wish.
This is just... So you, y'know? I always feel like you put so much of yourself into your covers and songs, but this time is pure Caleb. Hope you're doing alright on the other side of the screen!
Also, looooove the early 2000's vibe
I really appreciate this song of your. There's a message here, one that isn't seen enough. Your ability to take that concept and put it in your own song, in your own words, in your own style, your ability to capture this is absolutely beyond incredible. Thank you for this, it's amazing!
One day, some new musician will be covering this, unaware that you used to cover songs. They will "Idolize," you.
Several people already do.
@@phictionofgrandeur2387 and he deserves it.
This song is incredibly good! It was definitely worth the wait.
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
🙏🙏🙏
Holy crap I watched this song getting made on twitch like forever ago, I'm jacked that it's come out!!! What an incredible song caleb and great work to johnathon and everyone else who helped work on it
I think my favourite and most relatable is where you sing maybe one day we will be reborn or this humanity's final form
[Lyrics] Caleb Hyles - Idolize
[Verse]
Were you told what is real and beautiful?
Were you told to subscribe to lies?
Do you feel like you're lost? Delusional?
All your time is monetized
Get the camera to capture all your tears
There's a currency in your cries
They are listening close to all your fears
Your emotions weaponized
I can see it in your eyes!
[Refrain]
You and i are more than numbers on - the - screen
to analyze - Just close your eyes
Are you searching for a window into me
to idolize? ... Idolize
[Verse]
Bring a tithe to the altar of success
you will not be demonized
The adrenaline coursing through my chest
in a virtual paradise
Is there anywhere left where i can rest?
Is there ever a private life?
I'm expected to show you all my best
and it's leaving me paralyzed
[Refrain]
You and i are more than numbers on - the - screen
to analyze ... Analyze
Are you searching for a window into me
to idolize? ... Idolize
[Bridge]
Maybe one day we will be reborn,
or is this humanity's final form?
Into the mirror we are tired and worn
Must i fight for more?
[Refrain]
You and i are more than numbers on - the - screen
to analyze - Just close your eyes
Are you searching for a window into me
to idolize? ... Idolize
--------------------------------------------------
... i know it is a lyric-video, but maybe this is a bit more readable for some.
Atleast it helped me for a little bit of karaoke.
I really like this song, it reminds me of older Starset.
Hope to hear more original Songs!
The little voice break at 1:30 gave me MASSIVE chills. Beautiful song Caleb, much love and blessings from NZ
YES! More, please.
I mean, I like the covers, sure, but I love when y'all pour your hearts into the originals too.
Honestly I've followed you as a lurker for 8 years, ever since your "This Day Aria" MLP cover video. It's been amazing to see you grow into a fully realized artist, and hearing your vocals develop and grow better and better has been a pleasure. This song is incredibly raw and you can feel a lot of anger and pain in it but also a touch of hope
An absolute banger with a much-needed message! Amazing as always, Caleb!!💙🤘🏼🔥
WHY DID RUclips DIDN'T NOTIFY ME OF THIS ABSOLUTE BANGER!?
Original Caleb songs always make me happy dude, my absolute favorite singer that I met through youtube
This song reminds me of Starset, my favorite band.
It's so epic and so well produced that you could easily think it belongs to one of their albums.
So proud of you, Caleb. This might have becomed my favourite song from you.
Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷💜
I was thinking it reminded me of Starset too!
Ironically, it sounds more like Starset than Caleb's Starset cover.
Never heard of Starset tbh
Starset!! My favorite too!!
"we are more then numbers on a screen" and "are you reaching for a window into me, to Idolize?"
these lyrics hit hard and in a good way, and "are you reaching for a window into me, to Idolize?" reminds me of how I was growing up I idolized youtubers willynilly and didn't make the connect the dots of "hey, kid, these are people too" I was doing the same thing people did with celebrities when I was younger with youtubers, but as I got older, and saw many youtubers that I used to like outed for doing some...terrible things to say the least, and sure I may look up to youtubers still but I no longer put them on this metaphorical pedestal that they are this perfect human being, they are human, small mistakes, emotions other then happy, and many other examples exist that prove that, they are just people doing what they love.
"we are more then numbers on a screen" hit hard as well cus of how social media treats us nowadays when it comes to ads and such, asking about "hey, we are gonna do personalized ads and such, agree?" and most blindly hit agree, even without hitting that button though, you still feel advertisers (except for some more indie sites like new grounds or tumblr), watch you, try to piece together everything you do and what sites you go to, which can make it feel hard to disconnect from reality calmly when ads try to force you back to it.
continue making bangers dude. glad to see you doing more original stuff
I work in graphic design in an industry that has recently been crippled by the introduction of all the various AI art generators (Midjourney, etc). People are idolizing the AI art because it is free, and beautiful, and they are abandoning human-made art for this stuff that's spit out by a computer. So for many reasons, this song really hits home. I've spent years learning, building a career, just to watch not only mine, but my friends' as well, fade away as people go nuts over art that requires nothing more of them than entering a few keywords.
So sad to read this, i am just a hobby artist, using traditional items to draw. I never was a fan of digital art by all means but this AI sucks. I do hope it is just a phase, like so many hypes, that will go over. I pray for you and your friends, please keep going, there is still many people who prefer real artistry.
I love this song, amazing work on your original work as always Caleb! I've said this once and I'll say it again, people need to give your original music more of a chance. You're an amazing artist who has gone unnoticed for way too long.
ANOTHER ORIGINAL!!! very catchy and impactful, well done!
Always love your music incredible as always
Music: 10/10; Lyrics: don't apply to me, but they hit a huge audience; Singing: also, 10/10. I will always support Mr. Hyles. You're fantastic and I'm so proud and into your original music!
You know I’m not even a content creator and this song really hits the feels. It’s just how society and the digital world feels right now sadly.
You deserve a Grammy 🤟🏻
Chills less than a minute in. This is incredible. Reminds me of growing up listening to Skillet and Three Days Grace.
"Is there anywhere left where I can rest? Is there ever a private life? I'm expected to show you all my best and it's leaving me paralyzed" damnnn
Any time I see the name Jonathan young or Caleb hyles next to the words "original song" I get super pumped. May have found them from their covers, but I stayed for their originals
Wow. Amazing song... As a fan, I feel uncomfortable to think this is the pressure we put on creators. I hope you are free to create the art that makes you vibe so we can vibe to it, free to enjoy yourself and be proud of your work. Keep making amazing music apart from likes and fans projections. Your music is very cathartic and insightful.
Dang, this song goes in hard!!! Excellent work, my dude! Really hits at the core of modern existence!
DANG, What a powerful message to sum up what so many of us forget
"Must I fight for more?" Dang. The weariness and the frustration of such a deceptively simple question got to me.
I fell like Jonathan's "BAIT" was more subtle about the whole subject of losing yourself on what's expected of you on RUclips and other social media but the music production and vocals are out of this world. Props
Bait was more specific about the platform: RUclips - imo
While Idolize seems to talk about "social media" music artists in general
BOTH slap tho!
holy SHIT DUDE. fucking BEAUTIFUL! the line "are you searching for a window into me" is probably my favourite, it's so fucking good
I just listened to this song and i absolutely love it I'm emo and I listen to all sorts of stuff of emo music and when i saw this on tik tok i just had to listen to it I love this song so much and I cant wait to see what other kind of songs I can find on RUclips!!😁😁
Dude... You have officially found your sound. Love this! This song ROCKS!
I think I've listened to this four or five times now, and despite the lyrics in the video I find myself hearing, "Are searching for a window into me to idolize, Idle Eyes?"
Holy CRAP, that was incredible!!! 🤩 Knocked it right out of the park, Caleb! Remindse of the early days of Three Days Grace but with stronger vocals. Love its message too! Well done! 👏
The three days grace influence runs through your veins and I love it
Holy crap! I love this! When your album In One Breath first dropped and you uploaded the entire playlist to your channel, I made sure to listen to each one each day. I held myself to making sure I didn't advance to the next song in the order of succession until the very next day, despite how tempting it was. It took 11 days in total, since how I had skipped over Goodbye Monday considering how I had already listened to it the day it was released as a teaser. Each and every song on that album I ended up saving to my main playlist on Spotify once I could, and even to this day - despite how often I delete songs from said playlist - all 12 of those songs remain. You can be sure that this song, and likely any others will be added as well; though only time will tell if they stay like In One Breath did. (Between you and me and literally everyone else, however, I don't doubt they will.)
♥♥♥ This means so much to me
Holy cow! This is...oh my gosh, I have no idea how to describe it, other than freaking AMAZING! Just...wow. Fantastic job Caleb!
Simplemente bueniiiisimo,q fuerza ,q voz!!!!Larga vida a el rock y sus subgéneros!!!🤘💪🏻🤘
This rocks so much ever created by you, Caleb Hyles as always man i love it to you
This song is so amazing!🤩
Suited up Caleb with this epic song 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Keep up the awesome work bud. Been here for a long time.
DAMN THATS SO GOOOOD, i loved the "is this humanity´s final form?"
Omg finally! Waited so long after hearing y'all work on this. So hyped!
Edit: ok, just finished. 100% lived up to the expectations. Amazing job, well done Sirs!
Everytime I see a new Original song from you (or any creator for that matter) I go through the exact same motions:
"OH so and so made an original song...ehh, it's not *[insert song here]* so I'll watch it later"
*Later*
"WHY DID I SLEEP ON THIS SONG FOR SO LONG!!!"
So, today I decided to change that; I...still listened to this song later, but more so because of time than my usual reason; Eitherway, I am glad I decided to actually listen to this song when I did.
It is amazing and it hits hard with me and how I feel about content creators, thier viewers, and youtube as a whole. Great job.
This is so dang good, you killed it man 🎸
I used to binge-listen for random songs I might like, I found your channel and binged listened through your metal covers on a daily. Im not into the metal genre but you and Jonathan Young's awesome music skills made my inner rockstar, that I didnt know exist, pop out HAHAHA- After a year or 3 I started scouring for music again and I found this song, PERFECTION.
I don't generally leave comments but I love your work, so here I am feeding the algorithmic gods.
Caleb's originals are always great!
Songwriting has improved; poignant, of the times, if a little reliant on a single rhyme. Singing on point (as if there would be any question), as is the musicality surrounding it; Hyles and Young have never struggled to put together sonorous, full-bodied sound and solid rock licks. A solid sophomore effort and a head-banging good time. Rock on, boys!
One of the few instances where i keep a song on my day to day playlist after working with it.
Love the track, looking forward to working you again ✌️
love to get more original stuff from you!
Great job Caleb, this song sounds amazing!! I really love the message of the entire song, stay awesome ^^ Peace, love and Metal!
This song is fantastic!!!!!!!!! Your performance is stunning and I love the guitar chord progression.
Wow. I'm just amazed. As a creator and vocalist myself, this is just what I needed to hear. It's the perfect message for so many people. It's the perfect message for me! Thank you so much!💙
This is absolutely fantastic! You always do amazing work but this is on another level 💖
My only problem, The Songs not long enough!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE IT! DEFINITELY MY GOING TO BE BLASTING THIS ON MY SPEAKERS!
This is a great song! I'm going to be putting this on my "RUclipsrs making passive aggressive songs about RUclips draining their will to live and/or sucking" playlist, it's not a very long playlist(I think this will be song 5), but I listen to it from time to time whenever I get to caught up in corporate hype in general and remember how much work being a content creator takes out of people.
So much power in not only your amazing vocals but also the cutting lyrics. No preamble needed, we all know the emotions you’re singing about.
Gosh I love when a song is actually relatable to relevant subjects in everyday life. I can only listen to so much materialistic ideals and love songs. Kudos Caleb, as always!
This song is so powerful and so true. It's making me feel what I've been feeling. Such an amazing song, please keep it up!
This was soooo goood Caleb! Keep it going! :)
I was completely blown away by this, fantastic work Caleb!
This is such a banger. Fantastic job from all of you!!
OMG ! The lyrics is 🔥🔥🔥
just saw this on Facebook and had to come here to drop some love! 🤘🔥🤘
I know I'm a bit late, but I'm always so excited for the originals! The music always carries such passion and soul, and don't even get me started on the harmonies, vocals and instrument choice. I don't usually leave comments and I know these take so much work, but thank you. Thank you so much for sharing all this music, I eagerly await whatever is in store!!
This suits to the generations today and the previous, and what will follow
I've been waiting for this one after I heard you working on it on Twitch. Well worth the wait, nice job!
A thinly veiled metaphor for the burnout RUclips/art/music creators go through to maintain a fan base but it's genuinely destroying people. It's people chasing a dream struggling with bills and deadlines they barely meet then have things like their health or home fall apart. Support them when they take breaks or vacations or things get delayed. They need it.
I'm so happy to see you making your own music, you genuinely have the voice and music style to make it big. This is genuinely some of the best music I've heard in a hot fucking minute and it's reminiscent of Starset's music while still being it's own original, new vibe. It's so good I can't even begin to explain how much I enjoyed hearing this original piece from you.
Hope to see more originals soon!! Keep up the good work.
Beautiful yet ironic. Also I hope one day we are more than numbers and content generating machines
I need to know if there are any other Seduce Me fans here to hear how similar one of the repeating series of notes is to Chained The Monster, because it's so close, but changes at the end of the string, and the rest of the song is entirely different. It's a wild coincidence.
DAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNGGGGG MAAAAAAAAAN, this is amazing man. Well done....
Another certified Caleb Hyles banger 🔥🔥🔥
A time machine into the 2000s early 2010s emo rock era, but a fresh take… oh wait it’s Caleb Hyles, only the best from the best!
"Is there anywhere left that I can rest? Is there ever a private life?" That one hit hard. Well, most of this song gave me total chills. We record everything about ourselves, I even did a whole project at school on parents recording everything about their kids and posting on social media, nowadays there really isn't such thing as a private life, especially for those whose work is solely on social media. Amazing song with an important message, definitely going into my playlist.
Duuuude hell yes! This is so good! Can’t wait for more kick-ass rock songs from you!
@Caleb Hyles My prayer for you is longevity. You have unique message in your talent and sadly too few of you in this industry exist. Be rooting for you!
Caleb! More! More! More! Songs like this and Darkness Before the Dawn! This is sounding AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn bro,this song is my favourite❤
Found this song by chance... holy fuck dude, you're killing it!!
I clicked on this video not expecting to feel such strong emotion- Even as a smaller content creator, this absolutely hit home.
Every new song i love Caleb even more
This was PHENOMENAL! I feel like I’ve been hearing a lot to just make what makes me happy, and ignore the algorithm. And this goes right along with that. ❤🤘
incrível, sinto orgulho de acompanhar o trabalho desse homem a anos
Wow....this is amazing! I was glued to the screen the whole song. So great~ can't wait for more! Keep up the wonderful work! Thank you for your dedication! 💖
I'm happy to see more content creators are speaking and telling their follows to stop idolizing them and what not.
First off, LOVE LOVE LOVE THE SONG. Though in an odd way, it feels like when you miss a step on the stairs. My formative teen years was listening to alt rock, alt metal and emo (Three Days Grace, Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin, Linkin Park etc etc etc) and this really reminds me stylistically of that. It's so familiar but it's also weird for the inherent theme of the genre of "christ but sometimes don't we all just hate ourselves and feel like we don't belong, and at least we're in pain together and aren't alone" to be transposed a step to the left into being alone on social media
Interesting take!
Excellent work!
Not gonna lie, I was expecting a really heavy guitar solo in the middle to really drive home the last part of the song. This one’s on the playlist! Keep up the good work!
I'm very impressed with this song. Very catchy. I'm also very sorry for your pain and trouble to get this far, but I think your doing great! Make sure you take care of yourself.
This is such a fantastic song with a meaningful message. Gonna be blasting this on repeat for a while. Kudos to everyone involved!!
