Class of 2013: you were your mom's favourite, you were the gifted child, the one obedient child, you were never wrong. But it was only when you got older that you realized that you were actually emotionally and mentally abused by your mom. But even then, you can't help but love her at the same time. Every time you have a fight, you go to your mom for comfort, even if you hated her. You want to be a child again, free of responsibility and expectations
washing mashine heart: tired of being used and being in a guilty backup relationship. You are dating your dream guy but he loves someone else. “baby when i close my eyes, ik who you pretend i am”
ok, my favourite song is washing machine heart, this is like me and my crush's relationship, he's hella annoying tho and reveals my secrets. I hate him at the same time. I just can't stop.
indeed, its my fav song and i loved someone and almost got into a relationship with him but he was still loves his ex but i still loved him tho, thank god it didnt evolve into anything
Actually,Mitski said it's about a normal marriage. At some point it just loses it's romantic phase and just is like- "I chose to marry you so I will stick with you" type of thing.
i thought it was abt a girl escaping her abusive marriage by committing suicide but she is trying to mask the abuse with making fake scenarios of what could’ve been/what she tells people, and at the beginning it’s her committing and the rest of the song is her right before/when she was going to wherever she was going to commit. sorry for yapping but i think it’s really interesting to share interpretations of songs if that makes sense
I always interpreted that as someone having a dream of being a star but feels restrained by settling for a simple life and it’s a choice between career and relationships. this is probably because i want to be an actress but thats how i always saw it
I feel its like she was scared of marriage and she thought she would have to shut up and listen to her husband but her husband didn't do that, he actually loves her and listens and takes care of her and it is just her realizing that maybe marriage isnt that bad. Not the way im scared of marriage because of my grandparents were she had to shut up and please my "grandpa" and how ive noticed that some other marriage arent like that and they actually love and take care of each other and that maybe marriage isnt that bad. I think every interpretation is kinda attached to each of us with our current feelings and thoughts and thats so cool.
My love mine all mine: You feel insignificant to this huge world we live in and feel like you don't have control over your life sometimes but that one special person is always there for you when you need them.
I bet on losing dogs: you don’t care how successful or popular of “normal” your friends are, you don’t care how weird they are. They’ve been through a lot and you have and always will stay with them through it all. You know they’re gonna have highs and lows and you’re gonna stick with them through it all. You yourself have been there and now you want to be there for others.
I just love it because the lyrics, to the naked eye, seem like it’s about some wholesome crush on a person with strawberry blonde hair, and it also reminds me of my sister.
My body's made of crushed little stars-your depressed,ready to unalive, but you're waiting for something good to happen so you can live for even a few more seconds
My body’s made of crushed little stars(also one of my favs, I relate to this one a lot): you feel like you are never good enough, you tend to overachieve.
‘I’ve been big and small, and big and small, and big and small again. But, still, nobody wants me. Still, nobody wants me.’ THAT HITS HARD OKAY I CAN BE SAD, HAPPY, SAD, HAPPY AND NOBODY WANTS MEEEE AAAAA
Nobody: you must have gone through a trauma or a love disappointment that just marked you and even if years have passed you still remember EVERYTHING and are afraid to relate again and as the song itself says. You feel like no one else and you think no one will love you like that person did.
First love/late spring feel more to you loving them so much (obsession from being loved and to love) but it hurts to be with them (they affect your mental health) and you're so confused about your feelings, you feel like you're slowly losing your mind. And by " i was so young when i behave 25", the one you're in love is older and likes it more when you're acting mature for someone your age. And by "tell me don't so i can go back in", you want them to tell you that they love you, you want validation from someone else, you want to feel loved.
star: - having a good relationship with a special person that you truly cared about but slowly starts to get isolated from them as the relationship burns away like a star over time while getting replaced by somebody else from *that* special *person* while keeping the good memories you and that person had, before it ended but still appreciating that special person of yours even after getting isolated by them but still wanting them to look up more than the sky *itself* while keeping a trail of memories of that *person.*
Drunk walk home: your either a true Mitski fan and listen to the whole song, or you just listen to the screaming part for edits/vent animations (or smthin else) /j If you like this song then your with the majority of people. It’s generally interpreted in all sorts of ways. Some people see it as what women struggle with when walking home late at night (If you know, you know), getting SA’d or harassed in anyway, or if you’ve simply been treated in a way that makes you want to SCREAM. We are all on the same page, We all want- Actually… We all *need* to scream
Mine is Francis forever,there’s actually two reasons.the first was that the lyric “I’ve been trying to lay my head down but I’m writing this at 3:am” because I was constantly trying to stay awake when I was depressed, The most recent reason is when I broke up w my boyfriend,(he wasn’t in love with me) “I don’t know what to do without you” saying that I’ve been through so much in the relationship that I can’t help but wnat to go back,and “I miss you more then anything” being that I miss him but since he loved somebody else he probably dosent miss me.
Mine is first love/late spring and this is so accurate it hurts I love her, but I don't know how to express my feelings and she's so sweet... After some internal discussion I resumed the video and then 'saw Humpty which I also like. Is right the "you find hard yo trust people" but I actually interpret this song to myself like "Am I strange? I see everyone expressing their emotions, but I can't like they do. I'm like an egg shell, but I appear to be almost like a rock, not sharing my feelings to others because I don't know how" and there's another things, but I won't say this to every random people in internet-
Nobody is so underrated 😪 fr For me it's has a deeper meaning since its how life is to so many ppl at some point in their lives, it's like loosing a loved one, and no one cares or being betrayed by everyone even humanity can't save you and you are left alone to rot and die
Love me More : you feel like your partner doesn't love you as much as you love them so you desperately try to get them to 'love you' even though you're really just hurting yourself and your partner and risking your relationship. Or you either get pressured constantly in getting into a relationship even if you are not really ready for it yet.
I bet on losing dogs: you want to be loved as how you loved the other people in your life ( i know someone all ready did it but lets face it "mommy issues" fits the intire mitski sondom
I interpret this song as being about a woman with severe self esteem issues, who feels as if nobody cares about her existence "I steal a few breaths from the world for a minute, and then I'll be nothing forever"; and her husband who loves her a lot, but no matter how hard he tries, can't get her to see a fraction of what he sees in her. So instead, he is focusing on making her feel like at least she means the world to one person, and he would realize if she was gone. "I am the idiot with the painted face, in the corner, taking up space. But when he walks in, I am loved, I am loved" At the end of the day, he can't magically fix everything or make her wife as happy as he would want her to be, but if he can take just a bit of the pain she always has to endure, that's enough for now. "Me and my husband, we are doing better".
First love/Late Spring: I love this song and I'm single since birth. 1. I actually listen to it to cope up with my grief whenever I think of my late father while crying. Ya it's weird to listen to it as a coping mechanism for grief, but that's what it is. I love the sounds and the melancholic it gives. 2. Love the chorus especially the japanese line "Mone ga Hachikeri Sode" right after "I can't breathe". Make me want for them to leave alone since their expectations and overthinking about the future suffocates me. 3. I listen to it to make sad imaginations on my head sometimes. 4. It's actually the song that gives me depression after listening to it in 2 days and getting addicted to it. The song that makes my heart heavy. But I still loved it.
Yep.. and a bit used for my body which I know the line "I told him I'd do anything to have him stay with me, so he layed me down and I felt happy, come inside of me" isn't a sxual reference but I take it as that.
the only heartbreaker: the relationship (either toxic or onesided) has such lil efforts given by the other person that, she thinks she's the one breaking her own heart
really? i always interpreted it as being with someone who you know would never hurt you, yet feeling as if you’re a terrible person and hoping for them to make a mistake so you don’t feel bad or so that you can leave them without feeling bad. then again i kinda based my understanding of it on my own experience.
my favorite song is 'Nobody' and I can relate so much. Each day I try to hold in my tears and feel genuinely lonely. I have too much pressure to get everything done and have major anxiety issues. I feel like a object and (almost) hate myself. I want to be confident but I'm not. I try to be the best even though I'll never be. I can relate so much to this song. I have too much stress on my mind and get stressed through the smallest things. School doesn't help at all.. The teachers do nothing and say 'it's just a couple days. You'll get over it' even though it's a huge issue about myself. I try so hard to make a friendship but it won't work and I crave love in this world. Nothing really helps and I get bullied too and no one understands what I've been though. Absolutely no one. I try my hardest not to cry but it won't work. I feel like no one loves me. I only have 2-3 friends and they really help. I feel unloved at my school because of bullies and the fact that no one (except my 2 friends) understands. They tell me they went through worse times or 'I've been though that' when they really haven't tasted what I've been through. I don't know if this is another issue with me. Can someone explain or tell me?
I bet on losing dogs: falling into relationships that you're aware of are hopeless and too damaged, yet still try to fix it even though in the end there will be nothing to gain
Love how you mentioned how Mitski's songs can be interpreted in a lot of ways and here is my take on First Love/Late Spring. Even when the title is obvious and Mitski has explained her story behind the song, I just take it in a similar meaning but with people who give you unconditional love: You feel safe and become very vulnerable with these people but at the same time you feel like it's too much and you don't deserve it. You feel like you're not doing enough to give back as much as you receive and you feel awful about it. You try to push them away and as if testing the waters, its always constant reassurance and wanting to know that they still care. You know they do but at the same time you just can't believe they love you so much that they would still stick with you even during your lows. Most of the time, hearing "don't" when you go over the edge is the only sign you need that they still do care.
strawberry blonde was the song that was playing when my partner told me they loved me for the first time, and i really can’t believe i have them now. i had a huge crush on them for such a long time and then heard from someone that they said they didn’t like me as more than a friend and i was heartbroken for a while but decided to be stubborn and not give up on them, and now i really couldn’t ask for anything more. i promise you, there will be someone whose face lights up every time they see you and there will be someone that will always be there for you. i love you, max.
Me too ! From the lyrics to her voice, everything is perfection. I'll never get over the " to think that we could stay the same " part, I'm addicted. This song deserve to be more known
The "Nobody" is definitely me... Sometimes I wished ppl would love me, and sometimes I feel like they're ignoring me when I talk.. I feel really lonely at night/midnight. Having a family issues is really hard for me to handle.. I wish my family was "perfect" like others family... I had a crush on this boy for years but he still doesn't realizes me and I just found out that he already has a crush... 💔
Same.. I feel like that song is like your either in a low key abu$ive relationship, or your just recovering from one. Or another is your tired of being criticized and you want to be left alone for once
Nobody: I feel lonely, left out or just feel like I'm self centered/ or an attention seeker. I feel like I'm hated by my own freinds and underestimate myself.
First Love/Late Spring was the first Mitski song I ever listened to, and having listened to all her albums I can still confidently say it’s my favorite song. I have a very happy and loving relationship but that song is just perfection to me.
francis forever: you have a trauma about losing people you love...
I had a friend commit suicide recently and three months after (presently) I can't stop listening to it.

Mitski is one of the best artists of our time.
star: - having a good relationship with a special person that you truly cared about but slowly starts to get isolated from them as the relationship burns away like a star over time while getting replaced by somebody else from *that* special *person* while keeping the good memories you and that person had, before it ended but still appreciating that special person of yours even after getting isolated by them but still wanting them to look up more than the sky *itself* while keeping a trail of memories of that *person.*
Drunk walk home: your either a true Mitski fan and listen to the whole song, or you just listen to the screaming part for edits/vent animations (or smthin else) /j
If you like this song then your with the majority of people. It’s generally interpreted in all sorts of ways.

Mine is Francis forever,there’s actually two reasons.the first was that the lyric “I’ve been trying to lay my head down but I’m writing this at 3:am” because I was constantly trying to stay awake when I was depressed,
The most recent reason is when I broke up w my boyfriend,(he wasn’t in love with me)
“I don’t know what to do without you” saying that I’ve been through so much in the relationship that I can’t help but wnat to go back,and “I miss you more then anything” being that I miss him but since he loved somebody else he probably dosent miss me.
Humpty is my absolute favorite song. The description was not accurate, but I do have a body in my freezer.

For me it's has a deeper meaning since its how life is to so many ppl at some point in their lives, it's like loosing a loved one, and no one cares or being betrayed by everyone even humanity can't save you and you are left alone to rot and die
Nobody ain't overrated,I've heard it a million times unlike "remember my name"or other actually underrated Mitski songs
Love me More : you feel like your partner doesn't love you as much as you love them so you desperately try to get them to 'love you' even though you're really just hurting yourself and your partner and risking your relationship.

Francis forever : you watched adventure time or fall in love very easily but never finding someone that actually like you back 😢
Texas Reznikoff (one of my favs): you want to escape, wether it be school, work, toxic relationship or just life.
I interpret this song as being about a woman with severe self esteem issues, who feels as if nobody cares about her existence "I steal a few breaths from the world for a minute, and then I'll be nothing forever"; and her husband who loves her a lot, but no matter how hard he tries, can't get her to see a fraction of what he sees in her. So instead, he is focusing on making her feel like at least she means the world to one person, and he would realize if she was gone.
"I am the idiot with the painted face, in the corner, taking up space. But when he walks in, I am loved, I am loved" At the end of the day, he can't magically fix everything or make her wife as happy as he would want her to be, but if he can take just a bit of the pain she always has to endure, that's enough for now. "Me and my husband, we are doing better".

3. I listen to it to make sad imaginations on my head sometimes.
4. It's actually the song that gives me depression after listening to it in 2 days and getting addicted to it. The song that makes my heart heavy. But I still loved it.
I love Liquid Smooth
Me too its so understed
i want you: as u love and care for someone so deeply but you know it’s time to give up on them
all of them: you have little to no angst/trauma in your life and just listen to mitski cuz shes an amazing artist
Jobless monday: you feel like you are stuck where you are with no way out, lack of money and a toxic relationship
Can't one just be a mentally stable Mitsuki fan that just enjoys hearing her voice?
no
its impossible
it’s not physically / mentally possible
Yeah fr it's low key kinda annoying
My fav is "remember my name" ngl
I love remember my name so much omg
REALL
REAL ITS MY FAVE
same
" i look up at the gaps of sunlight, i miss you more than ANYTHING. "
i bet on losing dogs: you try to help others so much it's breaking you.
does nobody like townie?? its my favorite song of hers and no one talks about it!!
i like townie
THIS IS SO ACURATE-
FR
Happy: you are not okay with the way everyone's relationship is going. You feel empty and not loved even though you are giving lots of love to others
Yep.. and a bit used for my body which I know the line "I told him I'd do anything to have him stay with me, so he layed me down and I felt happy, come inside of me" isn't a sxual reference but I take it as that.
the only heartbreaker: the relationship (either toxic or onesided) has such lil efforts given by the other person that, she thinks she's the one breaking her own heart
really? i always interpreted it as being with someone who you know would never hurt you, yet feeling as if you’re a terrible person and hoping for them to make a mistake so you don’t feel bad or so that you can leave them without feeling bad. then again i kinda based my understanding of it on my own experience.
No because all the anime characters make this so much sadder
my favorite song is 'Nobody' and I can relate so much. Each day I try to hold in my tears and feel genuinely lonely. I have too much pressure to get everything done and have major anxiety issues. I feel like a object and (almost) hate myself. I want to be confident but I'm not. I try to be the best even though I'll never be. I can relate so much to this song. I have too much stress on my mind and get stressed through the smallest things. School doesn't help at all.. The teachers do nothing and say 'it's just a couple days. You'll get over it' even though it's a huge issue about myself. I try so hard to make a friendship but it won't work and I crave love in this world. Nothing really helps and I get bullied too and no one understands what I've been though. Absolutely no one. I try my hardest not to cry but it won't work. I feel like no one loves me. I only have 2-3 friends and they really help. I feel unloved at my school because of bullies and the fact that no one (except my 2 friends) understands. They tell me they went through worse times or 'I've been though that' when they really haven't tasted what I've been through. I don't know if this is another issue with me. Can someone explain or tell me?
I see no one saying last words of a shooting star... that one is so beautiful and painful
I bet on losing dogs: falling into relationships that you're aware of are hopeless and too damaged, yet still try to fix it even though in the end there will be nothing to gain
Love how you mentioned how Mitski's songs can be interpreted in a lot of ways and here is my take on First Love/Late Spring.
Even when the title is obvious and Mitski has explained her story behind the song, I just take it in a similar meaning but with people who give you unconditional love:
You feel safe and become very vulnerable with these people but at the same time you feel like it's too much and you don't deserve it. You feel like you're not doing enough to give back as much as you receive and you feel awful about it.
You try to push them away and as if testing the waters, its always constant reassurance and wanting to know that they still care. You know they do but at the same time you just can't believe they love you so much that they would still stick with you even during your lows.
Most of the time, hearing "don't" when you go over the edge is the only sign you need that they still do care.
strawberry blonde was the song that was playing when my partner told me they loved me for the first time, and i really can’t believe i have them now. i had a huge crush on them for such a long time and then heard from someone that they said they didn’t like me as more than a friend and i was heartbroken for a while but decided to be stubborn and not give up on them, and now i really couldn’t ask for anything more. i promise you, there will be someone whose face lights up every time they see you and there will be someone that will always be there for you. i love you, max.
me looking in the comments for "My body's made of crushed little stars"
i was finding this comment while commenting my fav is my body is made of crushed little stars,,
mine's gotta be two slow dancers 🙏 i never see anyone talk about that song ;(
YEEAAAHHHHHHH TWO SLOW DANCERS IS MY FAVE SONG EVER IN THE WORLD I LISTEN TO IT EVERY DAY
Me too ! From the lyrics to her voice, everything is perfection. I'll never get over the " to think that we could stay the same " part, I'm addicted. This song deserve to be more known
Heartbreaker but all of them sound amazing
Every mitski song is my favorite….
I bet on losing dogs: losing someone and a pet very dear to you. This song makes me cry every time
The "Nobody" is definitely me... Sometimes I wished ppl would love me, and sometimes I feel like they're ignoring me when I talk.. I feel really lonely at night/midnight. Having a family issues is really hard for me to handle.. I wish my family was "perfect" like others family... I had a crush on this boy for years but he still doesn't realizes me and I just found out that he already has a crush... 💔
Mine is bag of bones hnfnng i want to hear that song in my last moments
Same..
I feel like that song is like your either in a low key abu$ive relationship, or your just recovering from one.
Or another is your tired of being criticized and you want to be left alone for once
ME TOO
the nobody description is a little too accurate haha
nobody : you feel lonely nobify understands you you feel like your the only person in the world
Nobody: I feel lonely, left out or just feel like I'm self centered/ or an attention seeker. I feel like I'm hated by my own freinds and underestimate myself.
All her songs are my favorites . And I literally have a playlist with all her songs😭
Pearl Diver please, I'm a bit in love with the song
mines is either a pearl or my body’s made of crushed little stars 😭
everything you said, is so relatable :[ (2 are my favs)
First Love/Late Spring was the first Mitski song I ever listened to, and having listened to all her albums I can still confidently say it’s my favorite song. I have a very happy and loving relationship but that song is just perfection to me.
