    Since TMM's recent release, I'm reflecting a bit and coming back to this song, the very song that got me into AJR.

    A year from now, you'll still be kicking. And you'll become one of the giants, because the giants learned from this band.

    Most Underrated AJR song. One of my favorites, while living room isn't my favorite album, this is a diamond in the rough.

    • @captain8051
      @captain8051 Год назад +8

      Fax. The living room is good because of how creative it is but it’s not my favorite either, personally I like neotheater the best but this song is on other levels bro

    • @YepItsSandro
      @YepItsSandro Год назад +2

      My least favorite is the Living Room, but if you find the good one, like Infinity or this one, then it’s absolutely fire ngl
      My fav is The Click cuz its like OK Orchestra but done a bit better. Neotheater is just kinda mid tho, but Living Room is the least consistent.

    • @captain8051
      @captain8051 Год назад

      @@YepItsSandro interesting. My list is pretty much the same but my favorite album would have to be oko and then neotheater. I love how creative oko is and every song is good, the only bad song imo is the truth but even that isn’t bad. Neotheater is a banger filled album with songs like break my face beats the entertainments here birthday party wow I’m not crazy and next up forever. My 3rd favorite has to be the click. Don’t get me wrong I love the album cause it has great songs like sober up, bud like you, let the games begin, come hang out, and turning out. But I just feel like the whole album just doesn’t compare to neotheater or oko but it’s still a great album. The living room is my least favorite because there are only like 5 goods songs for example living on love, the green and the town, woody Allen, infinity, and buy you a rose.

    I think I love this song so much because it has such elegance. It's a really pretty song with awesome accompinament and chord progressions. It's awesome to listen with headphones on full blast and to sing along to. It's just that kind of song which defies the rules of modern musical culture. Thanks Adam, Jack, and Ryan, for daring to do what no one else would.

    A year from now, we won't be pretty
    A year from now, we won't be young
    But we will live among the giants
    Before the giants learn to run
    Now we are the blessed, now we are the strong
    Take my hand, and let me know that it feels good
    To feel at home
    We would sail across the ocean
    If cloudy skies should take our friends
    And we will learn from the giants
    Before the giants learn from them
    Now we are the blessed, now we are the strong
    Take my hand, and let me know that it feels good
    To feel at home
    What can I say, without a say?
    We've got a way to go, and what can I do
    To get back to you, and help us to find a home
    To search the green and town
    A year from now, we won't be lovers
    We'll just be suits and ties and shoes
    And we will grow without our parents
    'Cause soon we will be giants too
    Now we are the blessed, now we are the strong
    Take my hand, and let me know that it feels good
    To feel at home
    What can I say, without a say?
    We've got a way to go, and what can I do
    To get back to you, and help us to find a home
    To search the green and town
    I will search the green, and I will search the town
    But I will never find no one like you
    I will search the green, and I will search the town
    But I will never find no one like you
    I will search the green, and I will search the town
    But I will never find no one like you
    I will search the green, and I will search the town
    But I will never find no one like you
    I will search the green, and I will search the town
    But I will never find no one like you
    I will search the green, and I will search the town
    But I will never find no one like you

    But I will never find no one like you

    I can’t express how much this song means to me. With this being my last year of High School, I just connect with the idea of leaving something you’ve known for so long and finding a way to be okay with the new and unknown.
    In a year, I’ll too be a giant.

    This song is AMAZING. I can't describe how much i like it. It gives me opposite vibes: either it's a farewell or meeting after long time not seeing each other... I like how there was used word "Giant" instead of "Adult". Growing up is really scary thing, so, i feel like these are farewell to childhood and greetings to adulthood.
