    My girlfriend of 3 years passed last august from a random act of gun violence, iris was "our song" and she was the one who put me back on to mgk after not listening for years. She sent me Don’t Let Me Go at midnight when it dropped and it’s been my number one song on repeat ever since, but this might replace it, Thank you guys for this cover 🖤 long live megan keleman from stow ohio 🖤 this song plus your name forever will be songs I listen to for the rest of my days
    edit: thank you everyone for the comments below, she was my person. all I ask is you always be aware of your surroundings, I lost the love of my life just because someone broke mentally and didn’t get the help he desperately needed. Always tell your people you love them, life is too short

    • @InsidiousDC
      @InsidiousDC Month ago +1

      @@user-sx7xn9td3nto play devils advocate, the lanes Tory is filling are in a sense running parallel. He’s super talented as well with what he’s doing but they’re all very close to one originating sound. The lanes that MGK is filling are all on different directions if you know what I mean. From country to pop rock to grung to rap to r&b to “drill” style raps. I think between the two, MGK is more diverse with his artistic ability but he isn’t the first but may be one of the most versatile we’ve seen. Tory is killer and crazy talented too tho. I just don’t think his range of sound and music quite compares to MGK.

    [Verse 1: mgk & Julia Wolf]
    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't wanna go home right now
    And all I could taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    And sooner or later, it's over
    I just don't wanna miss you tonight
    [Chorus: mgk & Julia Wolf, mgk]
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    [Interlude: Julia Wolf]
    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
    [Verse 2: mgk, Julia Wolf, mgk & Julia Wolf]
    And you can't fight the tears that ain't comin'
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
    [Chorus: mgk & Julia Wolf, mgk]
    And I don't want the world to see me

    I just want you to know who I am

    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand (Mm-mm-mm)
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    [Chorus: mgk & Julia Wolf]
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

    There are certain songs that stay with you your whole life because they say the things you feel but don’t know how to express. Iris has always been one of those songs for me. Hearing MGK’s version hit me in a way I wasn’t expecting. It’s raw, vulnerable, and full of emotion. I also love Julia’s voice. It is not just a cover, but a whole new way to feel the song. You can hear the heartbreak, the longing, the honesty in every line. This cover isn’t just music, it’s a reminder of how deeply songs can connect to our memories, our stories, our emotions. Thank you for bringing this one back to life in such a beautiful, personal way. It’s perfect in every single way, I want and I need more covers like this.

I was drunk and just wandered into his area and he slapped the seat next to him when i was tryin to say hi. Sat down talked for a bit got a pic with him then he slowly left with his crew and dapped me up before he walked out. I hope he hasn't changed when it comes to his hospitality.
