    As a 22 year old who's never been in a relationship and had quite a few failed dates, this one hits a little too close to home. It's good to know there are lots of others in the same boat though! Only discovered Laufey a couple of days ago but man, I can't stop listening to her. Her voice is just so soothing.

    There’s no problem with Falling Behind in love, it’s like fine wine. The longer it takes to have that someone, the higher your standard gets and the quality rises too… then you end up cherishing yourself more and actually be okay with Falling Behind

    "poking fun at yourself" - exactly what is needed in Bossa Nova lyrics... you manage to capture that wistful, self-deprecating, but also not-taking-myself-too-seriously feel that's so typical of the Portuguese lyrics by Jobim, Vinicius, etc.

    Moved out to a new city
    June is dawning down on me
    And all that I can find
    A sickly romance in the air
    Lovers stroll without a care in sight
    Ooh, this can't be right
    'Cause the sun's engaged to the sky
    And my best friend's found a new guy
    I'm only getting older
    I've never had a shoulder to cry on
    Someone to call mine
    Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
    Touched the ocean, fell right in
    Stepped outside and burned my skin
    My life won't go my way
    Bossa nova in my room
    Hope that I'll find someone too to love
    Because
    The sun's engaged to the sky
    And my best friend's found a new guy
    I'm only getting older
    I've never had a shoulder to cry on
    Someone to call mine
    Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
    Everybody's falling in love
    Everybody's falling in love, oh
    Everybody's falling in love but me

    The 22 year old Laufey featured here has no idea how famous she’s going to be. One day, she will perform this song at the Hollywood Bowl with the LA Philharmonic as back up in front of a sold out crowd. The filming of that concert will then be in movie theaters in IMAX. With all that talent and hard work, she deserves everything good coming her way.

    @MrGreenAKAguci00 2 года назад +1

    Please release these acoustic versions too. They are a treat. I feel like I'm just sitting in a room and you are playing it for me and I'm convinced that everyone feels that way while listening to these. They are somewhat raw and unfiltered but that makes them authentic. For me they definitely fall into the cool and unpretentious sprezzatura. It feels like you are showcasing your genius specifically for whoever is listening and without any effort, but you are a bit shy to do it. They feel intimate, cosy and personal, please don't let them stay only on you tube.
