This song reminds of my my friend from the Xbox 360 days. Knew him for years, and he said he’d be back in a few days since he was going on vacation. Never been back online. I’ll never forget you, David. Maybe we’ll meet again.
I’ll never forget when I discovered AJR. It was RIGHT when this song came out. I was driving to my first training conference to be an Assistant Director at Huntington Learning Center. I heard this song and it reminded me of my best friends back home a few states away. I got this sinking feeling right there that I was going down the wrong path, the “professional” path I never wanted to. I buried my feelings and finished the training and I was Assistant Director for a while miserable year. I kept this song close to my heart until I was finally ready to put in my 2 weeks and pursue my real love of writing. Growing up really did make me numb, and AJR helped me sober up.
Ja Boi dang it’s my boi!! Right now I’m actually not writing, making videos instead to market and expand my audience. It’s kinda killing me inside though ya know? I can’t wait until I’m done so I can get back to writing my own stuff. Right now I’m working on a writing course to teach others who want to write their own novel.
@@Muncheiy that's awesome! you're literally the best person i've seen in the comment section of a song. sure, the jokes are funny, but man, you're so cool! you'll go far
The line “my favorite color is you” brings back a very distinct memory for me. I used to have such interesting and meaningful conversations with a friend. She hated small talk and so we would often try to have more meaningful conversations. One day we were talking about liking AJR, and we mentioned this song and somehow we both sang this line at the same time. It was just so nice to share that moment and to be friends. We have drifted apart which is why I see this line as such a sad one personally. It reminds me of those conversations and how I wish I could relive some of those moments.
I love how in the first chorus when he sees the "inner child" in some dude's sunglasses, he isn't even embarrassed (or at least doesn't show it) when he realizes he was just awkwardly staring deeply into another stranger's eyes. He's just so amazed to see his inner child reflection. So many little things in this song that I love! This song is so relatable too. At first he realizes he's still a kid at heart, and his first reaction - as an adult - is to try and get rid of it by moving reflection to reflection really fast. When he does lose his inner child, he feels lost and looks everywhere trying to get it back. Definitely one of AJR's best music videos on top of one of their best songs imo
This is the one band that I actually feel like the members are just normal, down to earth, relatable dudes. Just 3 great guys that make great music, no fake shit no selling out like every other artist does
They’re not famous😏😅 yet. But Ry (What jack calls Ryan) and jack are students while Adam just got his PhD and they’re just cool guys. Making music out of random things.
This song reminds me of my friend Kendra. She was an excellent artist. Really liked cats, especially mine. I've never met anyone who believed in me as much as she did. She moved, but we still talked online. Eventually we lost touch from even that. She didn't show up online for a long time. Turns out she died eight months ago in a car accident. She was 15. The last thing she ever texted me was how she wanted to meet up soon.
My 11 yr old is obsessed with AJR. She showed me this about a year ago. We fled her daddy from an abusive situation. I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself, but my girl knows the right song for the moment. We've got this.
I can't express how much that just resonated with me. Honestly brought a tear to my eye. My little girl and I get through the bad times with AJR, too. You made me feel less alone and more capable of making a change. I love you for that, thank you! ❤
I celebrated 4 years sober recently, and AJR's music was a huge part in seeing how beautiful the world can be without self abuse. Please, keep up the good work.
@@AJSantiesteban That's awesome man, I'm in the middle of my own struggle quitting my bad habits at the moment and it's comforting to hear that someone has overcome it and holds similar comfort in AJRs music as I do, you've given me hope to push on, thank you sir. Hope you're still well, best wishes homeboy.
@@theiconic3994 That made my entire afternoon... Keep up the good fight. Even 5 years later, I still struggle with the occasional trigger. But for me, it's how I handle that situation that makes the difference.
Wow! These kind of songs rarely appear, but when they do we're in for a treat. It's original, catchy, and even uses instruments not normally associated with alternative! Bravo AJR!
French Fan alternative is mostly instrumental. It's alternative because it's incremental. That's just my 2 cents. Otherwise, yes rarely seen on the mass radio media.
I like how AJR’s songs aren’t about love and romance like other songs, they’re songs are about common problems, and I love that. They’re trying to say YOUR NOT ALONE!
awhhh i feel ya man. it sucks... but after all the memories with them are still vivid isn't it. Let's cherish all moments and memories we have with them. Separating paths are sucks but that's what life is....
This reminds me of my friend. We were friends in first grade, until he moved to Conneticut. We said we’d keep in touch, but I never heard from him. Turns out he was killed in Sandy Hook. Not a day goes by I don’t miss him. Rest In Peace, Chase 💚
@@amanda_marie1643 1 day i dream of just holding every1s pain and misery so they can feel happiness but sadly thats not possible I only want whats best for every1 even if im.feeling like shit or just out of it ppl deserve to feel true happiness
@@amanda_marie1643 I hope you do but a couple hours ago my friend tried committing suicide and if I could hold his pain and suffering he would never have done that and all I want is for him To see happiness but all he's seen is darkness and pain and suffering no1 deserves it and I wouldn't mind to hold the weight of every1s pain but I believe 1 day everything will be better but for now it hurts me and makes me cry to know that ppl I Care abt and just other random ppl idek it also hurts me seeing that they have to suffer my freind got serious head trauma and amnesia thank God he remembered me he struggled for my name but he still knows me there's so much I want to do for ppl that I cant do but if I had the power to I would most definitely do
While I love the reference, describing someone as your favorite color when referencing frequencies is fairly scientifically sound. The perception of color has to do with the frequency of the light waves and how those light waves bounce off of an object and to our eyes.
This song makes me want to live life to the fullest without any worries. Growing up brings pressure and responsibility, but life is also short and we don’t have time to stress or worry about anything. These guys are so carefree and so relatable. Their music makes me smile.. thank you, AJR!
I shed so many tears to this song and now that I got to hear it again, I too wonder where has it all gone... I'm working a job I don't like, living with people (family) who don't make me happy (after the only dear person from the bunch had passed away), having friends who don't reciprocate anything or who just do the bare minimum, I've never felt love with a woman, or similar belonging... The song says "all the big kids, they are drunk", but I feel that's the only way to cope :/ Oh and I'm writing this after a great vacation with a couple of real friends. So basically while I'm feeling "better than usual". Ah. What a tedious journey, this 'life'.
@@sc3961 hey, dude, i think you should seek therapy, i went through something that is fairly similar, and therapy helped me deal all that stuff. Please, you don't have to feel nothingness anymore
@@sc3961Keep your head up man, continue the grind and i hope you find what you’re looking for. Don’t be afraid to search for it. Have a marvelous, awesome, outstanding, terrific, wonderfully amazing life! I wish you all the best!
My boyfriend sent me this song saying it reminds him of me. Im crying after searching the meaning. My assumption to the meaning was pretty close, but essentially its about asking for help to sober up from the weight of becoming an adult. We are both carefree and happy with each other. He essentially told me that I take away the pressure associated with being an adult. That I make life easier. Which I feel the same way to him about. This song oficially makes me cry when I hear it, and I can hear him so vividly singing it to me on our call last night
It took me forever and a music video to realize that he was talking about his childhood innocence instead of a girl when he says, "Last time that I saw your face was recess in second grade."
Jack (I think that’s his name) is so symbiotic why he is chasing his younger reflection. It is really deep because as you grow up you only wanna get younger but you can’t. Your youth will always be running from you. Once you embrace that then you might finally find your true youth.
Yeah I started chasing my youth at 29. When I realized I lost it lol. We all wish we could have are youth back with the knowledge we have now. What would the world be like if so? Youths with major knowledge like a 50 year old.lol that would be crazy
This song always brings tears to my eyes. Especially "Goodbye, goodbye. I said to my bestest buds. We said that we'd keep in touch. And we did our best." I've definitely been there many times.
Fun fact: if you didn’t already know this..AJR is actually made of 3 brothers. Also the meaning of this song, the song represents the numbness of growing up and the struggles along with wanting to know what it feels like to be young again.
This is also why the video for "3'oclock things" features them wearing "TB3" shirts. It was what they went by while busking in the Washington Square Park area way back in the day.
when i was like 8 i didnt know what it meant, i looked up what sober meant and i thought it literally meant sober im listening to this again and i just realized
@@hiiilolol It's pretty haunting. They have a knack for deep, meaningful songs that sound a lot like bubblegum pop. This song in particular is something I and many people I know can really relate to.
This is the most relatable thing I’ve ever heard. Being the youngest in my family, and moving around a lot when I was younger, this really hits hard. Most of the time when I’m around family I’ve run out of emotions to their antics or I’m just the stupid younger brother. Then I try and find friends who can help me feel alive and my age again, but then they end up being more of a burden than I intended. One day I hope to finally be able to feel like I was when I was younger and had my major emotions.
AJR definitely deserves more love. I love their music. Honestly, the work they do is absolutely amazing. I can’t say I was surprised when I heard someone blasting this song in their car.
Why didn't I find AJR back in 2020. These are the best songs I've listened to and the best songs I will ever listen to. Kudos to AJR for being so talented at what they do.
Same but I could not tolerate that happening because AJR is my favourite band.Also how could you almost forget I mean you're a real AJR fan I think I'm just a man listening to music If that makes sense
It's 2020, and I reconnected with my online friends of 10 years of friendship. And I'm feeling something again. They were my childhood, they bring laughter, they were my friends.
Y'all are inspiring. I was an alcoholic and this song just hit so many realization points for me. Then I got pregnant with my son and gave up alcohol, this song helped me literally sober up. It's beautiful.
Lyrics: Hello, hello, I'm not where I'm supposed to be I hope that you're missing me, 'cause it makes me feel young Hello, hello, last time that I saw your face Was recess in second grade, and it made me feel young Won't you help me sober up? Growing up it made me numb, and I want to feel something again Won't you help me sober up? All the big kids they got drunk, and I want to feel something again Won't you help me feel something again? How's it go again? "Goodbye, goodbye, " I said to my bestest buds We said that we'd keep in touch, and we did our best All my new friends, we smile at party time But soon we forget to smile at anything else Won't you help me sober up? Growing up it made me numb, and I want to feel something again Won't you help me sober up? All the big kids they got drunk, and I want to feel something again Won't you help me feel something again? How's it go again? How's it go again? (Go again, go again, go again) My favorite color is you You're vibrating out my frequency My favorite color is you You keep me young and that's how I wanna be My favorite color is you You're vibrating out my frequency My favorite color is you You keep me young and that's how I wanna be Hello, hello, I'm not where I'm supposed to be I hope that you're missing me, 'cause it makes feel young Hello, hello, last time that I saw your face Was recess in second grade, and it made me feel young And I want to feel something again I just wanna feel something again Won't you help me sober up? Growing up it made me numb, and I wanna feel something again (My favorite color is you) Won't you help me sober up? All the big kids they got drunk and I want to feel something again (My favorite color is you) Won't you help me feel something again? (My favorite color is you) Can I finally feel something again? How's it go again? You're Welcome :)
AJR inspired me to start writing music. They're the reason I started to create my own art. Now, I'm recording my first album with an amazing team to help me. Songwriting has become my therapy. Thank you, AJR. Thank you.
I usually listen to older music. But when people start saying there is NO good music in our generation. I would like to say there are a few exceptions, i.e this song.
This song reminds me of my friend from 2nd grade. We used to go to school(School of Tomorrow) together in Ethiopia. He then moved to the US. I wish I can meet u again Michale.
Madilynn Phelps THEY DESERVE EVERY HUMAN BEAN ON EARTH TO SUBSCRIBE TO THEM. THEY DESERVE THE UNIVERSE TO SUBSCRIBE TO THEM. EVEN THANOS SHOULD SUBSCRIBE TO THEM.
Growing up definitely made me numb. At age thirteen I lost my best friend. Life was full of comparing life before and after. She’s still gone, that hasn’t changed, but I’m learning to cope. I wasn’t a child anymore. I grew up really fast. And it was terrible. Enjoy your childhood, your youth. Please.
@Eunice Carmona my best friend since before preschool moved and this is the first year without him at school. I can’t contact him and when I heard that line it made me cry in the inside
I know no one will see this but, I will always remember the drive from California to Las Vegas on my way to my grandma Margie funeral and this song conferred me. It played a million times and her favorite color was purple and when he says “my favorite color is you” it gives me the happy sad feeling. It also reminded me of my childhood because I was taken into foster care at age 5 and my grandma was like my mother to me when my mom was getting high and shit. Honest to god, if it wasn’t for this song I don’t know if I’d be alive. Thank you AJR
I have an alcohol problem & was coming home from my first therapy session & this song came on the radio... I had never heard it before. It was meant to be! Now I love it ❤️
Alexis hey girl music soothes the soul and can be very therapeutic and it sounds like every song was meant for u and ure situation not only did I recently fall in love w this song but also BROKEN by lovey the band good luck cause I’ve struggled with addiction for over half my life so I dnt know if ure young with her whole life ahead of u but I’ve been in this at least 25 yrs because I started young well good luck
"All the big kids they got drunk" this line hit me very hard. I'm in middle school and I noticed how much everyone has changed. In elementary everyone was all about recess, drawing, making friends, but now everyone is vaping, dating, and cussing. Sometimes I just wish things were like old times
Lots of people change in middle school. It's hard to adapt. I found my middle school family in band Keep and open mind and remember everyone is trying to find who they are and it'll be okay
When i first was in middle school i hated a lot of things. It seemed like all of the people i called “friends” switched up on me. Its gonna be like this for the rest of your life as the world around us changes. Just know that you have to do whats best for yourself first, then others
im in 7th grade, and i felt like no one was the same. we're all changing. theres nothing we can do to stop that. but we can keep pushing through it, and keep moving on. hope youre doing good, and just know that there are still others going through exactly what youre going through. at least, when it comes to middle school/junior high
edit over a year later: I was just cleaning out my email inbox and saw a bunch of emails from RUclips because people responded to this. Didn't realize this reached so many people! It really warms my heart to see people of all ages relating to this sentiment
holy shit thank you . i am lucky i found this comment , i am 17 and preparing for college entrance exam tests and keep reminiscing about 5 years back when school was so easy . this made me snap back
As someone who’s turning 18 very soon, and feeling like my childhood is growing increasingly out of reach, this song helps me realize that I’m not the only one who’s gone through this. AJR truly is the most human band out there!
Well, I mean, theres no reason to smile outside of times when it is required. Empathy is what creates unsuccessful people. Friendships are valuable but they wont post you up in a multimillion dollar house in LA. Like, imagine thinking friendships are more valuable then a mansion and a Lamborghini when a human body is only valued at around 450,000 lmao
I was very into AJR a couple of years ago, and listened to it all the time, but then kinda forgot about it. Now listening to all these songs brings back so much memories i didn't even think i would remember with such a cozy feeling inside of me. Thank you, AJR!
I am now into AJR, it's my hyperfixation for 10 months already- And i will be so happy to re-discover these guys's creations later... 'cause sometimes i get new hyperfixations on the music that i liked before.
I'm 19 and since about 16 I'm feeling so stressed out and depressed because of growing up and leaving my beautiful childhood years behind and this song makes me feel like I'm not alone who feels just the same UPD: I am now 20 and the war started in my country and now it's worse... But now I'm more worried about surviving these times and not about missing my childhood...
This is litterally almost everyone dont be deppressed about new opportunities, sure, you now just left something behind but that's kinda more reason not to look back, right? I dont know I'm just a goddamn 13 year old.
im 13 and i dont want to leave my childhood either i wish i could stay a child forever. i dont like the feeling of growing up. people say youre more free once youre an adult but i doubt it. i feel like i would be less loved and etc i cant explain.
I'm 16, felt the same since... well I've hated that I can't turn back time since forever, but really I started realizing that over the last year or so I'm going to be an adult soon I'm already struggling with high school What the hell
Every song from AJR always has a meaning and its confusing unless you look and see whats happening for example he is trying not to loose the feeling of being a kid in this song and its just a nice feeling
Same.. The sh** we went through growing up made us the badasses we are today, I tell myself that everyday. And no matter how many times we may fall we will continue to pick ourselves back up again, stronger than we were before. We got this 💪
@@LizaKondratenko-e6z its his past self when he was in second grade, back when he had no wories and his feelings where not num. He reverts back to that part of himself at the end of the song which is why he appears a child.
One of my friends sent me a message saying, "AJR" and I asked who that was and he said, "idk, search it up" and I found this song and I decided to listen to it... Fast forward 2 years and I absolutely love AJR and I went to their Neotheater concert back in November (Nov 8)! Thanks Matthew for sending the message, "AJR" :3 Edit: Love you Matt! (Just wanted to add that cause yes)
@Lex ? Honestly, everyone complaining about it should be appreciative that their "favorite hit song" is gaining the attention that it deserves. lmao they really upset that the song is becoming more well known and becoming even more of a hit.
Damn. I think others have already spoken but this song really relates to teens. None of the angst or anything but they fear of losing your childhood. Feeling as if you are abandoning everything you know for the scary and unknown world of adulthood. But its ok to grow up, just don't lose touch with your inner child, we all have friends that need it. So do you.
i drove 3 hours to another state bc i thought they were giving a concert. turns out they were just opening up for another band. they played 5 songs and then left but it was 100% worth it
I remember listening to this as a kid on the radio, always loving it. I’d be so oblivious to the actual point of the song. But, that’s how you know it’s an amazing song. Here we are, years later, and a HUGE fan of AJR, finding this music video. Every time I listen to it, it just bodies me in nostalgia, and it’s impossible not to cry, especially with this video. It just hits so hard...
Dude the song is like 3 years old. Unless you were like 17 than your still legally a child. Plus even teenagers go through stuff so your probably still a 9 year old child. Also your allowed to have your own taste in music but seriously your a fan of ajr. All of their stuff is terrible this is the only song by them that's actually bearable.
@Music With BD It’s his/her opinion and personally I don't like people who just show up to a comment section and reply to a random comment and call out someone. Yes, you can be anonymous, but it doesn't mean that you can use that as a way to be mean to someone. And also “all of their stuff is terrible”? I’d like you to watch their live concerts here on RUclips and tell me that their stuff is terrible. Personally, my favorites are the overtures cuz it's such a unique way of starting most of their albums that I’ve never heard before. I'm just trying to speak reason and I hope u have a good day. :)
Atzi Chavez It doesn’t really matter but he literally had 5 comments in a row when he could have put them all into one or two comments. I was just telling him.
This is the best music video I've ever seen. You guys are so amazing and I am so proud if how far you've come. My compliments for this music video. It hit me right in the heart and I think it perfectly describes the feeling the song gives me. Thank you for everything guys, you deserve all the good things in the world.
I'm probably gonna be crying to this song in my 30's knowing that it's one of my favorite songs now, and the meaning will be perfect for my mid-life crisis.
This is my favorite AJR song. It’s gotten me through some dark times, and reminds me that sometimes, yeah, maybe I do need to sober up. While listening, I was cleaning out my closet and saw my old Girl Scout uniforms, Daisy to Cadette. The memories came flooding back, and I realized just how drunk I was, and that I needed to feel something again, feel that bright carelessness of childhood. I’m growing up now, sometimes a little too fast, and need to remember all those memories every once in a while. Thank you, AJR.
i used to listen to this song all the time. i had a friend i was really close with but she moved and we lost contact because i was in 4th grade. i always used to listen to this when i missed her. i commented about this when i was younger but i can’t find the comment anymore. i loved you guys when i was 9. i’m a sophomore in highschool now, entering tenth grade. i made contact with that friend again. i just got back from your concert. this song gave me chills. it brought back so many memories, i teared up. thank you for making music, your show was incredible and im so lucky to have discovered your music when i did because it made such an impact on my life.
I'm seriously crying right now, I have been having a really hard time with school lately and decided to listen to them in hopes of making quarantine less lonely and school less difficult. I've listened to them forever and they've gotten so far in their career, I'm so proud and happy for them!
Okay okay, when I was about 8-9, fun. and twenty one pilots were my absolute favorites. My little brother started listening to AJR recently, and when I heard this song I instantly fell in love and I couldn’t figure out why. Then I realized... the spirit of fun. lives on- through these guys. And man am I thankful.
I cannot express to you how much this song has done for me. You helped me to feel again when I thought all my emotions were buried too far down for anything to reach them. I can still remember the feeling of release when I would cry to this song in my room. I’m in a much better headspace now than I was before, but this song is still easily my favorite of all time and I thank you for helping me through that time in my life.
Rivers where ya at?? I love that people are saying AJR sings about silly yet relatable things and here they have a major rockstar (Rivers is the lead singer of Weezer for those that don’t know) and he doesn’t even want to be in the video. My guess? SOCIAL ANXIETY. He’s notorious for being extremely shy and doesn’t like the spotlight. Perfect for AJR and all of us who can relate! ❤
"Growing up has made me numb and I want to feel something again."
Oh how true that is.
brandon heat i felt that too
Dalton Zucco I felt that too much
690th like lol
I legit hated the time of my teens when I could feel myself getting less emotional about stuff
True
AJR is the definition of "oh hey, I've heard this before" but not knowing they're all from the same band
omg yesss
For real
Facts
I thought i was the only one!!!
I only stared listening to AJR when I heard burn the house down on the radio and when I looked into them I was like"wait a second, I have heard these"
This song reminds of my my friend from the Xbox 360 days. Knew him for years, and he said he’d be back in a few days since he was going on vacation. Never been back online. I’ll never forget you, David. Maybe we’ll meet again.
Itama Z hey bro i hope you see him havent talked to my friend in years i feel you cheers to us mate

I’m really sorry about that I know how you feel
Vøødøø _ thanks, and I’m sorry for you too, since you can relate.
Two months from now marks the 6th year.
A guy in the train was singing this while using his guitar and man was it so good to hear it in the train it felt like a checkpoint rest of life

This is so surreal reading this. It’s like I’ve just poked my head into part of someone else’s life. Hope u find ur friend mate :)

definitely some of the nicest, most down to earth dudes
i love that
Yeah, they really are! They're some some of the most laid-back people you'll meet!
Ngl I'm jealous
I’m pretty jealous right now, you’re so lucky.
*VISIBLE JEALOUSY*
I love how in the first chorus when he sees the "inner child" in some dude's sunglasses, he isn't even embarrassed (or at least doesn't show it) when he realizes he was just awkwardly staring deeply into another stranger's eyes. He's just so amazed to see his inner child reflection. So many little things in this song that I love!
This song is so relatable too. At first he realizes he's still a kid at heart, and his first reaction - as an adult - is to try and get rid of it by moving reflection to reflection really fast. When he does lose his inner child, he feels lost and looks everywhere trying to get it back.
Definitely one of AJR's best music videos on top of one of their best songs imo
This is the one band that I actually feel like the members are just normal, down to earth, relatable dudes. Just 3 great guys that make great music, no fake shit no selling out like every other artist does
And twenty one pilots
They’re not famous😏😅 yet. But Ry (What jack calls Ryan) and jack are students while Adam just got his PhD and they’re just cool guys. Making music out of random things.
Also they’re brothers too. Imagine making a band with your siblings

I only just figured this out 😂
This song reminds me of my friend Kendra. She was an excellent artist. Really liked cats, especially mine. I've never met anyone who believed in me as much as she did.
She moved, but we still talked online. Eventually we lost touch from even that. She didn't show up online for a long time.
Turns out she died eight months ago in a car accident. She was 15. The last thing she ever texted me was how she wanted to meet up soon.
That's horrible, I'm sorry about that.

R.I.P Kendra ❤
I'm so sorry to hear that. that must have been hard
I feel you I lost my good friend when I went to a different school 😥❤
My 11 yr old is obsessed with AJR. She showed me this about a year ago. We fled her daddy from an abusive situation. I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself, but my girl knows the right song for the moment. We've got this.
I love AJR too! I hope you guys make it through ❤
Hold, I need to meet her, as a fellow 11 year old obsessed with ajr

Keep fighting. I’m sorry about your situation
I can't express how much that just resonated with me. Honestly brought a tear to my eye. My little girl and I get through the bad times with AJR, too. You made me feel less alone and more capable of making a change. I love you for that, thank you! ❤
"My favorite color is you" is giving me major vibes of "my taste in music is your face"

I celebrated 4 years sober recently, and AJR's music was a huge part in seeing how beautiful the world can be without self abuse. Please, keep up the good work.
4 years! Cool!

@@AJSantiesteban That's awesome man, I'm in the middle of my own struggle quitting my bad habits at the moment and it's comforting to hear that someone has overcome it and holds similar comfort in AJRs music as I do, you've given me hope to push on, thank you sir.

Your comment says two weeks ago, and soon… 6 years before we know it 😕
Yes
Ok magyve stop 😊
Seriously though. Time flies faster and faster.
Wow! These kind of songs rarely appear, but when they do we're in for a treat. It's original, catchy, and even uses instruments not normally associated with alternative! Bravo AJR!
French Fan so true!!
Ikr it’s o good and catchy
French Fan alternative is mostly instrumental. It's alternative because it's incremental. That's just my 2 cents. Otherwise, yes rarely seen on the mass radio media.
French Fan use uke like twenty one pilots
The feel good song of the year!!
I like how AJR’s songs aren’t about love and romance like other songs, they’re songs are about common problems, and I love that. They’re trying to say YOUR NOT ALONE!
i think every song is about problems.

"My favorite color is you."
"I'm not as think as you drunk I am."
[Insert Roblox Death Sound Here] my taste in music is your face
We love a panic! Reference XD
My favourite you is colour
MURPLE
While I love the reference, describing someone as your favorite color when referencing frequencies is fairly scientifically sound. The perception of color has to do with the frequency of the light waves and how those light waves bounce off of an object and to our eyes.
This song makes me want to live life to the fullest without any worries. Growing up brings pressure and responsibility, but life is also short and we don’t have time to stress or worry about anything. These guys are so carefree and so relatable. Their music makes me smile.. thank you, AJR!
Ugh yeah. All their songs really make me feel something in a way no other band has really ever done for me.
same here! i love these guys haha@@themoistfeltlipsofsatanasamupp
I shed so many tears to this song and now that I got to hear it again, I too wonder where has it all gone... I'm working a job I don't like, living with people (family) who don't make me happy (after the only dear person from the bunch had passed away), having friends who don't reciprocate anything or who just do the bare minimum, I've never felt love with a woman, or similar belonging...
The song says "all the big kids, they are drunk", but I feel that's the only way to cope :/
Oh and I'm writing this after a great vacation with a couple of real friends. So basically while I'm feeling "better than usual". Ah. What a tedious journey, this 'life'.
@@sc3961 hey, dude, i think you should seek therapy, i went through something that is fairly similar, and therapy helped me deal all that stuff. Please, you don't have to feel nothingness anymore

@@freglee255 sobriety is feat and an accomplishment. Please don't disregard it.
My boyfriend sent me this song saying it reminds him of me. Im crying after searching the meaning. My assumption to the meaning was pretty close, but essentially its about asking for help to sober up from the weight of becoming an adult. We are both carefree and happy with each other. He essentially told me that I take away the pressure associated with being an adult. That I make life easier. Which I feel the same way to him about. This song oficially makes me cry when I hear it, and I can hear him so vividly singing it to me on our call last night
thats so sweet
Awww thats so sweet! ❤
that was wholesome.
Not you making me tear up 😩 This is so wholesome
I wish I had a BF who is so good to me, most guys I meet are absolute jerks or emotionally abusive or both. Your a lucky girl. He’s a keeper.

"My favorite color is you" is the cutest song lyric I have ever heard.
I know right
My favorite line in the song
They didn't come up with that line surprisingly. Rivers Cuomo from the band Weezer wrote that line.
Oh yeah, Rivers Cuomo is featured in this song
What does it mean
Jack (I think that’s his name) is so symbiotic why he is chasing his younger reflection. It is really deep because as you grow up you only wanna get younger but you can’t. Your youth will always be running from you. Once you embrace that then you might finally find your true youth.
You made me cry, you earned my like
Wow so beautiful
*symbolic
Yeah I started chasing my youth at 29. When I realized I lost it lol. We all wish we could have are youth back with the knowledge we have now. What would the world be like if so? Youths with major knowledge like a 50 year old.lol that would be crazy
Haha, yeah that’s his name
The reason i keep coming back to this song is the Cello. Man, it just hits different in this song.
This song always brings tears to my eyes. Especially "Goodbye, goodbye. I said to my bestest buds. We said that we'd keep in touch. And we did our best." I've definitely been there many times.
All my knew freinds we smile at party time but forget to smile at anything else
Honestly this song gives me the good feels so much so that I cry a bit
to my futrure husband somewhere in this world this is my song
You’ll find him, I found mine/sorta didn’t ask yet but I found my favorite color
I mean he didn’t ask for my hand yet but I feel he will
she gives me one more [best] reason to appreciate some sobriety. i love her more than booze, that's for sure.
Got you I will go buy the full Album
de todo corazón y con toda fe espero que lo encuentres y sea bueno
Fun fact: if you didn’t already know this..AJR is actually made of 3 brothers. Also the meaning of this song, the song represents the numbness of growing up and the struggles along with wanting to know what it feels like to be young again.
How does it go again??
This is also why the video for "3'oclock things" features them wearing "TB3" shirts. It was what they went by while busking in the Washington Square Park area way back in the day.
when i was like 8 i didnt know what it meant, i looked up what sober meant and i thought it literally meant sober im listening to this again and i just realized
OH SHOOT THIS WAS LIKE 3 YEARS AGO I WASNT 8 NEVERMIND I FEEL MORE STUPID
@@hiiilolol It's pretty haunting. They have a knack for deep, meaningful songs that sound a lot like bubblegum pop. This song in particular is something I and many people I know can really relate to.
This is the most relatable thing I’ve ever heard. Being the youngest in my family, and moving around a lot when I was younger, this really hits hard. Most of the time when I’m around family I’ve run out of emotions to their antics or I’m just the stupid younger brother. Then I try and find friends who can help me feel alive and my age again, but then they end up being more of a burden than I intended. One day I hope to finally be able to feel like I was when I was younger and had my major emotions.
I spend two days looking for this. Right as I give up this ends up in "recommended for you" and my two day search is now completed.

Lyrics:
Hello, hello, I'm not where I'm supposed to be
I hope that you're missing me, 'cause it makes me feel young
Hello, hello, last time that I saw your face
Was recess in second grade, and it made me feel young
Won't you help me sober up?
Growing up it made me numb, and I want to feel something again
Won't you help me sober up?
All the big kids they got drunk, and I want to feel something again
Won't you help me feel something again?
How's it go again?
"Goodbye, goodbye, " I said to my bestest buds
We said that we'd keep in touch, and we did our best
All my new friends, we smile at party time
But soon we forget to smile at anything else
Won't you help me sober up?
Growing up it made me numb, and I want to feel something again
Won't you help me sober up?
All the big kids they got drunk, and I want to feel something again
Won't you help me feel something again?
How's it go again?
How's it go again? (Go again, go again, go again)
My favorite color is you
You're vibrating out my frequency
My favorite color is you
You keep me young and that's how I wanna be
My favorite color is you
You're vibrating out my frequency
My favorite color is you
You keep me young and that's how I wanna be
Hello, hello, I'm not where I'm supposed to be
I hope that you're missing me, 'cause it makes feel young
Hello, hello, last time that I saw your face
Was recess in second grade, and it made me feel young
And I want to feel something again
I just wanna feel something again
Won't you help me sober up?
Growing up it made me numb, and I wanna feel something again
(My favorite color is you) Won't you help me sober up?
All the big kids they got drunk and I want to feel something again
(My favorite color is you) Won't you help me feel something again?
(My favorite color is you) Can I finally feel something again?
How's it go again?

I know no one will see this but, I will always remember the drive from California to Las Vegas on my way to my grandma Margie funeral and this song conferred me. It played a million times and her favorite color was purple and when he says “my favorite color is you” it gives me the happy sad feeling. It also reminded me of my childhood because I was taken into foster care at age 5 and my grandma was like my mother to me when my mom was getting high and shit. Honest to god, if it wasn’t for this song I don’t know if I’d be alive. Thank you AJR
I saw this, and I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how it feels to loose a grandparent.

Brittney Bernardin thanks so much! Good luck to you too
Alexis keep fighting sista.
"All the big kids they got drunk" this line hit me very hard. I'm in middle school and I noticed how much everyone has changed. In elementary everyone was all about recess, drawing, making friends, but now everyone is vaping, dating, and cussing. Sometimes I just wish things were like old times
Lots of people change in middle school. It's hard to adapt. I found my middle school family in band
Keep and open mind and remember everyone is trying to find who they are and it'll be okay
Katelin Vandehey Thank you🥺
When i first was in middle school i hated a lot of things. It seemed like all of the people i called “friends” switched up on me. Its gonna be like this for the rest of your life as the world around us changes. Just know that you have to do whats best for yourself first, then others
Galaxy People try out every personality in middle school, including being jerks. By high school most people figure out how to be decent humans.
im in 7th grade, and i felt like no one was the same. we're all changing. theres nothing we can do to stop that. but we can keep pushing through it, and keep moving on. hope youre doing good, and just know that there are still others going through exactly what youre going through. at least, when it comes to middle school/junior high
edit over a year later: I was just cleaning out my email inbox and saw a bunch of emails from RUclips because people responded to this. Didn't realize this reached so many people! It really warms my heart to see people of all ages relating to this sentiment
holy shit thank you . i am lucky i found this comment , i am 17 and preparing for college entrance exam tests and keep reminiscing about 5 years back when school was so easy . this made me snap back
This comment made me realize a lot of things, thank you
just enjoy life, let it pass, be chill about it things will happen, and pass thats how life is.

Freshman going to sophomore in high school. I’ve listened to this song a lot lately, and I’m gonna take my chance while I still have it
As someone who’s turning 18 very soon, and feeling like my childhood is growing increasingly out of reach, this song helps me realize that I’m not the only one who’s gone through this. AJR truly is the most human band out there!
“We smile at party time..but soon we forget to smile at anything else..”
It’s hurts how much I relate to that....
i always hear begin, not forget
Well, I mean, theres no reason to smile outside of times when it is required. Empathy is what creates unsuccessful people. Friendships are valuable but they wont post you up in a multimillion dollar house in LA.

And i will be so happy to re-discover these guys's creations later... 'cause sometimes i get new hyperfixations on the music that i liked before.

I'm 19 and since about 16 I'm feeling so stressed out and depressed because of growing up and leaving my beautiful childhood years behind and this song makes me feel like I'm not alone who feels just the same
UPD: I am now 20 and the war started in my country and now it's worse...
But now I'm more worried about surviving these times and not about missing my childhood...
I'm younger than you, but yeah.
This is litterally almost everyone dont be deppressed about new opportunities, sure, you now just left something behind but that's kinda more reason not to look back, right? I dont know I'm just a goddamn 13 year old.
im 13 and i dont want to leave my childhood either i wish i could stay a child forever. i dont like the feeling of growing up. people say youre more free once youre an adult but i doubt it. i feel like i would be less loved and etc i cant explain.
I'm 16, felt the same since... well I've hated that I can't turn back time since forever, but really I started realizing that over the last year or so

@Lex ? Honestly, everyone complaining about it should be appreciative that their "favorite hit song" is gaining the attention that it deserves. lmao they really upset that the song is becoming more well known and becoming even more of a hit.
Damn. I think others have already spoken but this song really relates to teens. None of the angst or anything but they fear of losing your childhood. Feeling as if you are abandoning everything you know for the scary and unknown world of adulthood. But its ok to grow up, just don't lose touch with your inner child, we all have friends that need it. So do you.
i drove 3 hours to another state bc i thought they were giving a concert. turns out they were just opening up for another band. they played 5 songs and then left but it was 100% worth it
ukelleyle what band did they open up for?
I believe it was dashboard confessional
true fan
I think so to
Why does AJR have only 970,000 subscribers when I hear them on the radio more than my mom yells at me
I never here them
@Cosmic i have heard weak on the radio, but that's all
Rebecca Suzanne lmao
Did you rlly hear their song on the radio?
@@bulletbot2250 yeah tons of times
I remember listening to this as a kid on the radio, always loving it. I’d be so oblivious to the actual point of the song. But, that’s how you know it’s an amazing song. Here we are, years later, and a HUGE fan of AJR, finding this music video. Every time I listen to it, it just bodies me in nostalgia, and it’s impossible not to cry, especially with this video.
It just hits so hard...
Bro how old are you
Dude the song is like 3 years old. Unless you were like 17 than your still legally a child. Plus even teenagers go through stuff so your probably still a 9 year old child. Also your allowed to have your own taste in music but seriously your a fan of ajr. All of their stuff is terrible this is the only song by them that's actually bearable.
This was only three years ago.
@@bdthecat3517 *you're and this is definitely not one their best songs BANG, burn the house down, and weak are either equal or better
@Music With BD It’s his/her opinion and personally I don't like people who just show up to a comment section and reply to a random comment and call out someone. Yes, you can be anonymous, but it doesn't mean that you can use that as a way to be mean to someone. And also “all of their stuff is terrible”? I’d like you to watch their live concerts here on RUclips and tell me that their stuff is terrible. Personally, my favorites are the overtures cuz it's such a unique way of starting most of their albums that I’ve never heard before. I'm just trying to speak reason and I hope u have a good day. :)
Most underrated band ever!!! Absolutely genuine hall of fame band!
I NEVER hear anyone talking about them and Its so crazy, they're one of my fav bands and they're absolutely amazing and unique...
This song is a testament to my philosophy to always listen to each random song that pops up in your recommended
Unless it’s Cardi B then just keep scrolling
@@thedoctor8527 A notable outlier
Damn. I think I'm gonna start doing that.
@@Wintertit me too
AHHH ITS SO GOOD IM SO GLAD THEY ARE FINALLY BLOWING UP
·a talented bean · yeah blowing up but not growing up
Or are they sobering up?
AwesomenessManiac // Sunshine Riptide ooooooh nice 😂
·a talented bean · I’ve been a fan since 2013 ;D
Thought they blew up 4 years ago with I’m ready
Crazy that this song was uploaded in 2018 and it's now 6 years old and it still bangs
TikTok: *steals this song*
This song: “hello hello, I’m not where I’m supposed to be”
101
Yup
Im here because of a stranger thing tiktok with this in it!
Oh, and i get your joke just now😅
I was on that part when I was reading it... they were really not where there supposed to be.
This is the most beautiful music video I've ever seen
Twenty Paphonies You can put everything in 1 or 2 comments. You don’t have to make 5 separate comments for every single thing you want to say.
Phantastic Sundae why not? fuck it
Atzi Chavez It doesn’t really matter but he literally had 5 comments in a row when he could have put them all into one or two comments. I was just telling him.

you are everywhere ||-//
This is the best music video I've ever seen. You guys are so amazing and I am so proud if how far you've come. My compliments for this music video. It hit me right in the heart and I think it perfectly describes the feeling the song gives me. Thank you for everything guys, you deserve all the good things in the world.
I'm probably gonna be crying to this song in my 30's knowing that it's one of my favorite songs now, and the meaning will be perfect for my mid-life crisis.
Take it from me, you will be 😢
Students going back to school after quarantine:
"last time I saw your face, was recess in second grade and it made me feel young" xD
3rd graders talking to their crushes after quarantine: *last time I saw your face, was recess in 2nd grade, and it made me feel young*
@@wildmoose3979 lmao😂
funny haha
@@scientistdoggo ikr, it doesn't seem like it though
This is my favorite AJR song. It’s gotten me through some dark times, and reminds me that sometimes, yeah, maybe I do need to sober up. While listening, I was cleaning out my closet and saw my old Girl Scout uniforms, Daisy to Cadette. The memories came flooding back, and I realized just how drunk I was, and that I needed to feel something again, feel that bright carelessness of childhood. I’m growing up now, sometimes a little too fast, and need to remember all those memories every once in a while. Thank you, AJR.
Holy guacamole you guys... AJR is a band that can do no wrong 🔥
i used to listen to this song all the time. i had a friend i was really close with but she moved and we lost contact because i was in 4th grade. i always used to listen to this when i missed her. i commented about this when i was younger but i can’t find the comment anymore. i loved you guys when i was 9.
i’m a sophomore in highschool now, entering tenth grade. i made contact with that friend again. i just got back from your concert. this song gave me chills. it brought back so many memories, i teared up. thank you for making music, your show was incredible and im so lucky to have discovered your music when i did because it made such an impact on my life.
I'm seriously crying right now, I have been having a really hard time with school lately and decided to listen to them in hopes of making quarantine less lonely and school less difficult. I've listened to them forever and they've gotten so far in their career, I'm so proud and happy for them!
I hope things get better
Okay okay, when I was about 8-9, fun. and twenty one pilots were my absolute favorites. My little brother started listening to AJR recently, and when I heard this song I instantly fell in love and I couldn’t figure out why. Then I realized... the spirit of fun. lives on- through these guys. And man am I thankful.
Crystal Clear Films tr
i miss fun. !!!!
Dude that is literary or at least for the most part but same
I LOVE TØP TOO SO MUCH IM LIKE THERE MUMBER OME FAN THEN I FOUND THE- basically The Same Thing Happened
Clash Of Cadence uM excuse me- Josh Dun is the #1 fan of twenty one pilots...
I cannot express to you how much this song has done for me. You helped me to feel again when I thought all my emotions were buried too far down for anything to reach them. I can still remember the feeling of release when I would cry to this song in my room. I’m in a much better headspace now than I was before, but this song is still easily my favorite of all time and I thank you for helping me through that time in my life.
This comment deserves more
Holy crap I heard this once and now I think I’m addicted AMAZING job AJR!

GeekyGrace 10 same.
I love weak to
I have to say I think this is probably my favourite song
EVER
SAMEEEE!!!!
Wow, the bar is that low huh?
Edward Hernandez 😂
Rivers where ya at?? I love that people are saying AJR sings about silly yet relatable things and here they have a major rockstar (Rivers is the lead singer of Weezer for those that don’t know) and he doesn’t even want to be in the video. My guess? SOCIAL ANXIETY. He’s notorious for being extremely shy and doesn’t like the spotlight. Perfect for AJR and all of us who can relate! ❤
