The video is meant to show growth, just like the song "Summer" shows growth from earlier times, like "Anchor Down". The dude is coming out of probably a hard divorce/break up and is now on his own, he lets himself go, but then puts himself back together, and eventually takes it one step at it a time, until he goes back outside to face the world, even if it's just quickly to realize he isn't 100% ready yet. Beautiful video to match a beautiful song. Also I think it all totally represents Kyle in a really quick way.
It's interesting how people really seem not to like the lyrics to any of their songs. Yet, for me, I find it the exact words I feel. I relate to these so much. Which also kind of sucks because when I try to write lyrics myself I end up writing parts of theirs
+Klinthrin or their lyrics are basic af. look at other bands using their diction to elevate what they're saying. Real Friends shells out zombified verses of "sad" to relate to a group of people. they're more of a guilty pleasure than an actual band I would recommend
Dude, right! I was reading criticism of their lyrics and I am really like "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?" I think they have the best lyrics of any pop punk band!
This video was so incredible. The way it was filmed and written, and how well it related to the song... I felt this video on a very deep, emotional level. Love it.
i really liked this video i saw it as he locked himself in to spend the winter alone (seasonal depression) and hopes for when it gets warmer he would feel better but when he goes outside he feels he not as ready as he hoped
The videography in this video is stunning, it really makes me want summer when right now it's cold and snowing outside. Real friends always nails it with lyrics, these are beautiful. This song has become one of my favorites along with I've Given Up On You!
Oh Real Friends, when do you not make me feel things? I already really loved the album but now this song and video just really do it for me. Cant wait to see these guys out again with The Maine.
This band always reflects different phases of my life, well probably not just my life i feel that a lot of people must feel the same way sometimes , how sometimes i feel sad after break up and on those lonely days you just don't know what else to do but just miss that other person .
I really enjoy the fact that Real Friends went on sort of a different Route with the new album. It's a good change. They focused on dynamics and more emotion. It's a great album, all throughout.
+Poppa Punker Once again... CANT WAIT FOR SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha last summer I also met a girl, fell in love, and she left me. How fitting to this song lol.
I love Real Friends so much!!! It was so great to see them play back in November! The fact that the movies are VHS just brings back memories from my childhood, but I don't think he had enough!
This music video is perfect, it captures exactly how some of us react to losing someone important, and the song does a pretty good job at that too. Best video from Real Friends this far. 10/10
Yup. This is the perfect example of a depressed, online school student with no friends. I know thats not the point of the video but it's still extremely accurate.
It’s been a year since he left. These lyrics right now are something I definitely relate to. Because I never thought I’d see the day where I think about him and not have it hurt…I’ve grown so much since he left. But there’s still times when I think about him and it still slightly hurts. But not as much as it used to. He truly made me believe that we had something but I was dead wrong. I know I’ll make it through this winter without him. I cant find another song that I can relate more to at the moment.
I love the way they portrayed the song through this video. Its not the most typical video, yet I feel like a lot of people live like this inside themselves (not necessarily literally in a house). But this visualizes it perfectly. Great video for one of my favorite songs on this album!
I've loved this song since the album came out, but I first found this video when I lost someone near and dear to me. Almost a year later I showed the song to someone new, who I cared very much for. Now I've lost them, and I'm back at this video again
This is honestly one of my favorite songs off the album and I think this video does an AWESOME job at getting the point and emotion of the song across to an audience. I seriously love this. Great job.
heres what i think of this video: this guy wants to be alone for almost a year. when the weather has noticeably changed and he realizes life is outside, thats why he goes outside. he probably goes back inside because he wants to make this change little by little.
I thought the video was pretty straightforward, he just got dumped and he goes into depression, but at the end when he goes back inside its because he realizes he's not ready to move on. Fits the song
This video and song are so good! I like how he barricades himself inside all winter and comes out for one second in the summer lol. Really fits with the lyrics, congrats on the new video Real Friends!
I love this song! Was not expecting them to do a music video like this, it's cool to see them go a different more serious route. You know that this song really means alot to them.
Not joking, I've been strictly listening to death metal and all manor of extreme metal for the last 5 years. But these dudes right here, expanded my horizon and damn I love pop punk
I love this song and the new video. I can't even describe how close to home this has hit me. Incredible work Real Friends, hoping to hear more from you guys soon!
We all know that "Cover You Up" or "I Think I'm Moving Forward" should've been used instead. Those to me seem like they would be powerful singles for this album. Introducing new fans to the essence of what Real Friends is all about. Hard riffs, relatable lyrics, jamming choruses. I don't think "Summer" and "I Don't Love You Anymore" are bad songs at all, I just think that there are more worthy songs as RF's singles. This is my favorite band after all. Not bad.
I agree with you for Cover You Up, I think that one should've been used instead of sixteen. To me sixteen is trying too hard to be like I've Given Up On You and Hebron. If I Think I'm Moving Forward were a single I would've traded that with Loose Ends. The two are kind've even with me though because they both would've been the weaker singles out of the ones they have released. Cover You Up definitely is the best song off the album though.
Robby Johnson I agree with you about sixteen. I wouldn't personally have chose that as a single either. Dan's vocals can get a little over dramatic sometimes when it comes to their slower songs, but really I think it depends on what Eric wants to write about. I disagree with you about Loose Ends and I Think I'm Moving Forward though. I personally think Loose Ends sounds too similar to Cover You Up. In ITIMF, I think the overall song on it's own is very powerful, from the lyrics to the way their implemented in the hard hitting chorus. My only problem with the song is that I feel that it's too short. But I do agree in saying that Cover You Up would've been the perfect single to release for the album. I love the song an incredible amount. And having Joe from Knuckle Puck on there during the bridge I though was wonderful. I really wish he was used during the last chorus though. Overall, not bad, but not that spectacular compared to Everyone That Dragged You Here (which is my personal favorite by RF). I did enjoy Put Yourself Back Together too.
***** I think this should have been the first single, then cover you up (or vice versa) then sixteen (you sort of need an "acoustic" song in there you know?). I love loose ends but it took some getting used to (personally) where as I loved summer and cover you up from the get go. I think there's more of a variaty of sounds on this album? It took me time to tell songs apart on the ep's because they often had the same sound. (my opinion). Can't wait to hear the new stuff live ^_^
I feel that the band decided what felt right to themselves. Although, some other songs might be more lifting in the way they produce them to us, however I think the band was gripping at the lyrics more in my opinion. I adore their choice of music videos in I Dont Love You Anymore and Summer, they deserve to be produced in the way they were, so they did a fantastic job conveying how they thought their band truly was.

The way he screams "heavy on my heart" is fantastic
me to
me too thanks
perfect
refrigerator
Falling in love is like hearing a soft lullaby. Falling out of love is like screaming into the void. That’s what I got out of those two lines.
I've always loved this song, but I never thought it would apply to me until right now. Never thought I'd be so heartbroken,
same tbh
Jocelyn Martinez I love your profile pic
Same for me , at this very moment
how are you now?
Jocelyn Martinez same sis
The video is meant to show growth, just like the song "Summer" shows growth from earlier times, like "Anchor Down".

You made me believe we had something
Well I guess that I was wrong
This broke my heart.
+Raine Ramos It can hit the spot
+JjustGreg yeah you're right. It really hits me hard too
Same it made my heart do that twinge thing
brought on that lonely hurt empty shock... definitely learned my lesson.
U.y
It's interesting how people really seem not to like the lyrics to any of their songs. Yet, for me, I find it the exact words I feel. I relate to these so much. Which also kind of sucks because when I try to write lyrics myself I end up writing parts of theirs
+ItsAPartyGetDown Imo their lyrics hit way too hard, people dont want to accept the truth..
+Klinthrin or their lyrics are basic af. look at other bands using their diction to elevate what they're saying. Real Friends shells out zombified verses of "sad" to relate to a group of people. they're more of a guilty pleasure than an actual band I would recommend
Their lyrics suck, but we like them anyway. The part about him sitting in the basement with the lights off is soooooooo fuckin whiny.
Dude, right! I was reading criticism of their lyrics and I am really like "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?" I think they have the best lyrics of any pop punk band!
I had to let go of someone who was doing more harm than good. Sad songs like these always seem to make me feel better.
So does a shotgun
this song will be a golden treasure forever, i'm thankful it exists
went back and rewatched this since we're quarantined rn.
I MISS YOU LIKE THE SUMMER.
+Matteo Iommi RIGHT NOW I THINK I NEED YOU HERE
+hey hey hey it's j. |-/ BUT I DON'T REALLY NEED YOU.
+MyckelJay I'LL GET THROUGH THE WINTER WITHOUT YOU!
you're all cancer
its sad because its true
This video was so incredible. The way it was filmed and written, and how well it related to the song... I felt this video on a very deep, emotional level. Love it.
11 seconds into the song and I already like the band omfg
I'm surprised there hasn't been any comments about how relateable this video has been for the year of 2020 😂
why is this the best music video I've ever seen?
i really liked this video i saw it as he locked himself in to spend the winter alone (seasonal depression) and hopes for when it gets warmer he would feel better but when he goes outside he feels he not as ready as he hoped
The videography in this video is stunning, it really makes me want summer when right now it's cold and snowing outside. Real friends always nails it with lyrics, these are beautiful. This song has become one of my favorites along with I've Given Up On You!
this video takes on a whole new meaning these days
Oh Real Friends, when do you not make me feel things? I already really loved the album but now this song and video just really do it for me. Cant wait to see these guys out again with The Maine.

I love the plot of the video, it ties in so perfectly to the lyrics. We all just want to get through the winter.
I miss you like the summer!!!! I love this song. So excited to see them with The Maine!
I really enjoy the fact that Real Friends went on sort of a different Route with the new album. It's a good change. They focused on dynamics and more emotion. It's a great album, all throughout.
This song helping me with my heart broken, can't describe how this song makes me feel, just love every line from this song
One of the greatest songs off the album. Great video.
I'm loving this video as much as this song, the time lapses compliment it perfectly. Real Friends just keep getting better and better.
Like all Real Friends songs, the lyrics to Summer are very beautiful, not to mention quite relatable especially with this terrible winter weather!
I'm out here freezing in the midwest... CAN'T WAIT FOR SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Same!
+Poppa Punker Once again... CANT WAIT FOR SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha last summer I also met a girl, fell in love, and she left me. How fitting to this song lol.
The "I'm a little worn out, since you fucking tore me down" gets me every time
I love the cinematography of the video itself.
As someone who likes the Winter, i can still understand his pain.
I love Real Friends so much!!! It was so great to see them play back in November! The fact that the movies are VHS just brings back memories from my childhood, but I don't think he had enough!
This music video is perfect, it captures exactly how some of us react to losing someone important, and the song does a pretty good job at that too. Best video from Real Friends this far. 10/10
This only adds to the many reasons why I love real friends
This dude knew that the quarantine's gonna happen and prepared for it years ago..
Who else loves this song?! Great work on this one guys, also the video is superb!
Yup. This is the perfect example of a depressed, online school student with no friends. I know thats not the point of the video but it's still extremely accurate.
I connect with this video on a spiritual level
I love how well this music video goes with the song!

I cant find another song that I can relate more to at the moment.
I found the ending priceless. Love the story behind this.
Real Friends keep getting better and better. Omg so good.
I love the way they portrayed the song through this video. Its not the most typical video, yet I feel like a lot of people live like this inside themselves (not necessarily literally in a house). But this visualizes it perfectly. Great video for one of my favorite songs on this album!
Love it! The time lapses are rad:)
But that dog totally had to go out to pee.
Ha
That's what I thinking but then again he had whole winter teach his dog to use the toilet. Haha.
Probally but how would it work to take a shit dogs tail would get all wet
Taylor Mckinna You know a dog can hold its tail up, its not just dead weight on the dog.
nahh thats why the dog was only in for a little while ..... it died ..rip cute doggy
These guys never let me down, and this is one of my favorite songs off the new album. Well done guys!
I've loved this song since the album came out, but I first found this video when I lost someone near and dear to me. Almost a year later I showed the song to someone new, who I cared very much for. Now I've lost them, and I'm back at this video again
This is honestly one of my favorite songs off the album and I think this video does an AWESOME job at getting the point and emotion of the song across to an audience. I seriously love this. Great job.
This video surprised me,its better than i expected.
Best song of the album!
Dan's voice gave me chills through out the song
love the band
and this is why I love real friends so much
Ever since I started listening to real friend s my depression slowly but surely us starting to fade
I was waiting for this video. I've needed this song.
quarantine vibes
Almost through the winter without her now
heres what i think of this video: this guy wants to be alone for almost a year. when the weather has noticeably changed and he realizes life is outside, thats why he goes outside. he probably goes back inside because he wants to make this change little by little.
I thought the video was pretty straightforward, he just got dumped and he goes into depression, but at the end when he goes back inside its because he realizes he's not ready to move on. Fits the song
And this, kids, is an example of "what the author meant" VS "what your English teacher thinks the author meant"
ORRR he left the water running.. thank you ill be here all week!
LMAO
This video and song are so good! I like how he barricades himself inside all winter and comes out for one second in the summer lol. Really fits with the lyrics, congrats on the new video Real Friends!
I loved the video! It goes very well with the song which is something you actually don't see a whole lot.
This videos so good omg. It makes me love the song so much more
Freaking LOVE this song! It's one of my new favorites! Keep making amazing songs like this one! Cheers!
I love this song! Was not expecting them to do a music video like this, it's cool to see them go a different more serious route. You know that this song really means alot to them.
What an awesome video. The director/editor on this did an amazing job. Great song too!!
The chorus is super catchy. ❤️❤️ this is one of my favorite bands, keep up the good work guys
That was really inspiring. Wish I had seen it when I needed to years ago.
It's great that this is one of those subtle yet powerful videos matched up with Real Friends' powerful lyrics and vocals. It's a perfect fit
I love this song and the video they keep getting better and better!
Not joking, I've been strictly listening to death metal and all manor of extreme metal for the last 5 years. But these dudes right here, expanded my horizon and damn I love pop punk
These era of real friends 🤝
love this and makes me miss summer
The time lapses in this video are awesome tbh
Okay but did he not walk the dog at all
+Angelica Raqeal doggy door maybe??
Such an amazing video, great job! Favorite track off the album!
Damn ...one of my fav bands man
This man ain't sad. he's in Quarantine.
Love this song!! The music video is really cool too!!
I love this song so much!!!
Oh man. Words. Feels.
I love this song and the new video. I can't even describe how close to home this has hit me. Incredible work Real Friends, hoping to hear more from you guys soon!
Love this song and music video!
I got through the winter without her. Healing takes time, but it eventually will come.
I really like the time lapses. Really nice song 👌👍👏 keep it up guys 💋
when he put the sign back on the door I was sad
This is one of my favorite songs on the album! I think the video works really well with it. Keep it up guys :)
It sounded as if it came from 2008 but no, its right now. I am very culture strucked. I have missed the 00's so much including the 90s.
So excited to see a new video! Great song guys I absolutely love it! :)
Great song! Always loved how unique Dan's voice is :)
I love this music video so much!
In love with this!!
They were so awesome live!
now this is a quarantine video
Right at the end hes just like "fuck this shit. Outside is horrible"
Graphics are great, Gameplay is alright. Respawn times suck.
The outernet is too scary
Needed this today ❤️
literally just spent my winter like this for the same reason.
Thank you for making amazing music!
This was almost encouraging.
I love it regardless. Still an amazing music video from an amazing band. ❤
Love this video and the song! Sooo good!
I love this song but I hate the summer because I live in Arizona. 😭
Aubrey Sky me too :(
Aubrey Sky 4 seasons? nah fam we got 2 seasons: Summer and slightly colder Summer
i leave in france :'(
such an awesome video, and beautiful song!
I can't wait to see real friends on may 7th at best buy theater.. It's going to be so good

Looks like Soupy
@@heyholetsgo What as in Dan Campbell of the wonder years? nahhhh fam I dont see it
I fuck with this song heavy.
This song came out when my babymama left me and my son we haven't seen her in 7 years now this song always helped
