Lyrics
Boy, when I left you you were young
I was gone, but not my love
You were clearly meant for more
Than a life lost in the war
I want you to be happy
Free to run, get dizzy on caffeine
Funny friends that make you laugh
And maybe you're just a little bit dappy
Fly
Feel your mother right at your side
Don't you know you got my eyes
I'll make you fly
You'll be happy all the time
I know you can make it right
Boy, now your life is back-to-front
But you'll see that's not for long
'Cause I know you'll feel the ghost
Of some memories so warm
Boy, I want you to be happy
Free to run, get dizzy on caffeine
Funny friends that make you laugh
And maybe you're just a little bit dappy
Fly
Feel your mother right at your side
Don't you know you got my eyes
I'll make you fly
You'll be happy all the time
I know you can make it right
Boy, I want you to be happy
Free to run, get dizzy on caffeine
Funny friends that make you laugh
And maybe you're just a little bit dappy
Fly
Feel your mother right at your side
Don't you know you got my eyes
I'll make you fly
You'll be happy all the time
I know you can make it right
I'll make you...
Boy, I want you to be happy
Free to run, get dizzy on caffeine
Funny friends that make you laugh
And maybe you're just a little bit...
Oh oh oh

"Don't you know you got my eyes"
I don't know why but this really hit me
saaaameeeeeeeeee
im sorry for your loss, we all have rough times. it gets better, never let anyone put you down, people care for you, even if you don't think they do. if you have problems, reaching out is okay!
My 2 sons have my eyes and I feel what u mean.
Get a grip
im literally bawling right now
In Arabic when we want to express how much we love and cherish someone we say "you are my eyes".. And for some reason that line "don't you know you got my eyes" makes me really nostalgic and sad.
OMG I THOUGHT I WAS LIKE THE ONLY ARAB HERE WE GOT TASTE

Vocalist/guitarist Dave Bayley explained the story behind this song to Paste magazine: "The idea for this one came from a story someone told me once. They were telling me about their child, and something awful had happened to them. She was crying - but at the same time the memories that they had from that previous life made her so happy - so she was also smiling. That combination of emotions kind of made me feel like my heart was being ripped apart but also optimistic in a weird way. She had found a way to see happiness in this awful thing that had happened to her. That combination of emotions is what this song is getting at."
Oh god, I’m so scared to think of what might have happened to the child :(
@@sistersamich2075I can think in just onde thing, and I guess you think the same :(
I love how well the song's sound captures this feeling
😔😔
so is the child in the music video a ghost in a sense? i’m not really sure what the plot for life itself is. i’m assuming that has something to do with the terrible news about the child?

Fuckin right in the feels man... Good music still exists
Honestly I don't understand songs in english right away (not a native speaker) but the feeling was there. My dad wasn't there for me, but it made me appreciate all the good things he did for me when he was there.. there's no happiness without pain, there's no white without black. :)
Well s h i t. That was depressing. I knew it had a sad story, I didn't realize it was that sad.
@TheStarFighter one day you'll be and you'll have to face your emotions alone good luck
UnforgettableAlice 😭💦💧🌊 😢🤧🤑
The boy probably represents youth and the pure, free spirit of being young. When you grow up, it's hard to find that spirit again. You have to search for it.
That's deep man
interesting
that's exactly what I got from the video too, I agree 100%
this
I get that the mom is a single mom who has hard times looking after her child so her youth is gone and she's doing whatever she can to make him have a good youth?
its insane to me how heat waves got that much of a hype with songs like this on their discography
This one, domestic bliss etc. They really have a lot of depth in their songs
I'm almost upset because I started listening to their music a few months ago because I heard Heat Waves and thought it was _interesting._ Like it's good, but almost every other song they've made is better so?????
Heatwaves appeals to the general braindead public. The lyrics are pure generic trash. Their earlier works are much better.
Yeah, agreed. The first two albums are absolute fire. I hope people delve into them.
The song was in fifa. So millions of people got to hear it through that
I hope my son can find some type of solace or message in this song one day. We lost his mother my wife when she passed suddenly three months ago at 23 years young. He was only 2 years old and 7 months when it happened. It was a short time for him but so many happy memories. They spent every single hour of every single day together. We’re so lost and devasted without you, We love you Deja C Rodriguez
This story is heart wrenching, its absolutely tragic to hear about the loss of a young beautiful life. I am actually 23 years old and to think that someone my age could be ripped away from this world is horrific. Unfortunately nature takes its course in unforeseen ways, but the bright side is although it feels like she's gone her soul isn't. I truly believe that she is there watching over you and your son each and everyday, trying to guide you down the right path in subtle ways. I know its not the same but she lives on, especially through your child and some day soon enough you will all be reunited again. I can only imagine the pain you must feel, but thankfully time will continue to heal your heart, you just have to be patient and allow the time to pass. Meanwhile if you need a person to listen, you can talk to me! I'm sending positive energy your way, I hope you can take some comfort in this ❤
@@alivc2458 thank you for the kind words and yea that would be nice.
Have solace that one day all the dead shall rise again, in Jesus name. Prayers for you and yours!!!
how old are you?
@@ManiyaVinashe’s twelve 🤡🤡 pay your respects and move on weirdo
As a mother whose had to let her son go for his life to be better, this song is about exactly that. The pain and sacrifice and love and the warm memories you pray they will have of the sweetest moments you've shared when you held them so long ago.. I miss you.
Reborn Baby Harry Potter love sent your way
The more I read the comments the more I identify this women as my mother putting me in adoption nooo why did I came herere
I'm imagining two characters going through through something like this. Adam and Athena were expecting a son. If his birth were to occur naturally then it kill him and his mother.
Adam had an idea, have him be born in the Sanctum. A plane of existence much like their own, however they can't go back. Archangels, like Adam and Athena can. He was able to be born but it would be years or centuries that he would exist on Adara.
I imagine Adam and Athena singing this song to their son while he becomes light. Becoming part of the moon in the Sanctum.
Wow.. I didn’t know my comment had any likes, and I happened to listen to this song yesterday while mourning my loss, and just noticed today that someone commented five days ago on this thread, and it brought the likes and comments to my attention. Thank you to anyone who has prayed for me or had me in their heart or thoughts. I’m still here a year later, missing him and coming back to this song to sing my heart out hoping he can feel my energy. 💗💕
SauceyCakes I’m just now seeing this comment! Thank you so much 💕🥺
It’s been 3 years and I still can’t sing that chorus without tearing up

I had to pause the song, hits close man
I can't even sing it

Right??? He's jammin'
He vibin and we love him for that
he's adorable he's just vibing man
His little wiggles are top tier
Absolutely grooving
My dad passed away in 2012 and now he communicates to me sometimes through songs. If I ask him a question the next song I hear will have the answer. This year I had to start my life over completely and I have moved across the country away from a toxic person, and then I moved again from the next place I lived from another toxic person, all during the pandemic. I am also legally blind and otherwise disabled so I worried about how I would make it on my own after my losses and divorce. I don't know anybody here and I'm completely alone. This comes after 10 years of loss and change that started with his death. Anyway, When I asked him how could I ever have a life again he sent me this song. He always does. I have been told he is my spirit guide and I can tell when he's here. I love glass animals
spanish please?
This is a very touching story
The devil wants to feed off your emotion. I’m deeply saddened by your lost that must be difficult but you should read the Bible and see for yourself.
Leviticus 19:31 ESV
“Do not turn to mediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them: I am the Lord your God.

I hope my mother hears this… if she’s alive

This, send them off, chariots,high and low 🥲

Time goes by fast kid. Stay humble
I saw this live at the glass animals concert. My fiancé and I both agreed we couldn’t provide for our daughter that was on the way so we had to give her up for adoption. This song came on at the concert and I lost it. I was singing the chorus completely choking up. Voice cracking that turned into straight sobbing. My friends and family all knew, they held me saying how much they loved me. Every memory I have of my daughter is in this song. My god I don’t think I’ve cried so hard in my life while singing. It was closure I felt and needed. Thank you glass animals truly. As I write this I can feel the tears. Thank you so much for playing this song at your concert. Waited 7 years to see them live.
Had the money for a concert with the father but couldn't pay for Cheerios to raise your own child?
@@promontorium that was over 5 years ago when that decision was made. You can keep stupid comments to yourself. Also I didn’t pay for the tickets. They were a gift. Have a good one

bunnyluveable oh god yes! It's absolutely amazing.
this is exactly my thought!!!! XD
Amen
I feel the opposite, their music is like a cool and refreshing breeze blowing through on a hot and humid summer day in the tropics
This is a rare thing... I like every song a band makes
That's exactly how I feel.

in my opinion, Glass Animals are the greatest band of our generation
Camilla, hundred percent concur with you:)....what a stunning band and their sense of creativity............it's almost unreal.......what beautiful soundscape they create.....and add to that, the oh so evocative videos.....utterly lovely!!
+shoyusha THIS
A child's innocence is one of the most beautiful things on this planet.
this song is so heartbreaking. The first time i heard it i sobbed. my mother is so incredible and i imagine this is how she felt when i was sent to the hospital after my suicide attempt. mothers have to sit back after their child is raised and just hope for the best. they love from a distance and this song literally describes their desire for their child to "be happy and free to run."
Non
Clicked on this by accident but glad I did this song is amazing

isnt it strange??
the more you listen to this song, it gets sadder each time.
at first i hear this song as casual happy and high. now it kinda becomes sad especially when he said "boy... i want you to be happy.... free to run" :'(
That is so frikken true. Months after hearing it as an uplifting happy tune, now I cry at the first beat every time.
noooooooo pls don't do this to me
I sob everytime i watch this
I wish I had never seen this video, because I really liked how this song made me happy before
Its opposite for me. Each time hearing this song I connected to it some way. And each time hearing it, i felt it more closer to myself. Lately I've been connecting strongly to the sadness of the song. And I somehow always find bittersweet in sad
"Please continue eating. Don't mind the child dancing on your table."
Nah its good
Aahahahahaha because all i wanna do is be happy 🤣
Every mall food court ever
I enjoy it.

What fifa was this song
@@gijslangeveld5736 17 i remember it vividly
@@gijslangeveld5736 fifa 17
I sure am
I cried watching this video, this is my first time seeing it.. It just reminded me of my mother, how she raised me alone. Seeing me happy and dancing all her life . How she works hard day by day just so I have a roof on my head and food on the table. She's amazing...
If u can tell it to her. She probably would be rlly happy
I lost my little sons to the care system because i had depression and experienced domestic abuse. I see them now sometimes. It doesn't get any easier and I miss them a lot.
I hope and pray everything works out for you ❤
I hope you find peace.😥
I'm in the same boat as you. I heard this song in my dream last night. Didn't know it would lead me to feel sad, and nostalgic about being a mother.
I lost my first child because he died, and I lost my 2 boys because of the care system, as well as domestic violence that carried on to my oldest son. My youngest wasn't born at the time.
This song makes me feel so many different emotions at once.
I pray for you all and I hope everything is OK ❤️
Prayer to you 🙏 wish you all the best
this song perfectly encapsulates that deep instinctive parental love, that need to protect your child, raise them, watch them prosper, to kindle that next torch and do anything to keep that flame alight even if it means snuffing out your own. ive only ever gotten this feeling in small glimpses but this song just wakens it entirely and it’s beautiful
This song makes me understand the pain my mother had to go through, seeing her dear children leave the nest and become independent, reminiscing a time during which we were all together.
I’m incredibly thankful for everything she did and she has such an important part in my heart.
I hope I can do my best to make her happy.
Literally any frame in this video would make an amazing painting.
especially the kid dancin'.
On it
so right.

Listening to all these songs from Glass Animals feels like an adventure.
A really comfortable lay-back-and-enjoy-the-ride adventure

@@firex.6273 Facts
@@firex.6273 yep. It's a sad decline for fifa. But at least there's something to enjoy. Although you could just go on Spotify or something. But you dont get the same vibe as hearing it in fifa soo
And phone numbers from fifa 20
I would literally dance on this song while I was playing fifa 17
And now I Don’t Wanna Talk (I Just Wanna Dance)
I always heard as if they were counting in the chorus since they used phonetically similar words. Even reading the lyrics I still hear it. Like:
ONE, i want you TWO be happy
THREE to run and dizzy on caffeine
FOUR your friends that make you laugh
And maybe you're just a little bit dappy
FIVEEEEEEEEEE
strangely enough i never heard the second fly as Five hahaha. But always felt as if the counting was symbolizing the priorities she wanted her child to have.
holy shit
i genuinely thought his was the lyrics before i listened more carefully
Yo…
This is an awesome connection. Good thoughts but difficult to implement…
I’ve always wondered the weird pronunciation to those words
I thought it was counting too, I'm positive it was done on purpose.
this is how i used to hear the song as well :')
This song literally makes me cry every time I hear it it's just so sweet
Bittersweet
same, the music video and the lyrics are just too much. so heartbreaking
[Verse 1]
Boy, when I left you you were young
I was gone, but not my love
You were clearly meant for more
Than a life lost in the war

And maybe you're just a little bit dappy

Don't you know you got my eyes
I'll make you fly
You'll be happy all the time
I know you can make it right
[Verse 2]
Boy, now your life is back-to-front
But you'll see thats not for long
Cause I know you'll feel the ghost
Of some memories so warm

finally. ive been looking for the lyrics in the comments 😂
노망구 S
노망구 you're the best man
Thanks
I read up to the first pre-chourus and fEEELS
My interpretation:
The mother put her son up for adoption because of their life not being in the best state so she left him so he could have a better life, either the lyrics are a message to him before he was put up for adoption, or a message to him when he has grown up.
Easily my favourite song ever since I first heard it on FIFA 17. Great game and great song.
one of the best songs i've ever heard. it just invokes so much emotion that you can't describe
I know no one cares about stuff like this but I just wanted to speak on the power of art because it’s beautiful. This video and this entire album has been a huge catalyst and help in me saving myself and my family. I was forcing my husband and 3 kids to live with my abusive parents so that I could try to make them love us before they died. All they did was hurt us more and instead of dealing with it I kept staying there and started doing pain pills. This video helped hit home how much I don’t need my parents and it made me never want to escape from my reality again. I hadn’t quite gotten to a stage of disgust, but I sure have done a lot of regrettable things. This album helps me have the strength to keep doing my best to learn to be better and to learn to be the best I can be for my kids. I don’t want to be held back by anything anymore and I don’t want to hold back my family. Thank you glass animal and crew:) your saving lives with this music
this comment is beautiful and i think other people might care :P
❤️
That was so deep my eyes teard I'm happy for you hope you make the right decision and never forget asking for help from your loved ones is never a bad thing :)
I'm a little late on this but music is just that...tight hand hold of love and guidance. I'm joyful for you and your family and the healing trek you've been on.
Hi, Samy. I think you’ll love Glass Animal’s new song, Domestic Bliss. It makes me bawl my eyes out every time I listen to it.
miss you mom!! 17 years since you gone. from the heaven i know that you take care of me...
i am not afraid to admit i cry every time i listen to this song. It reminds me of my own mother and i wouldn't trade her for any other mom in the world
the fact that for the evening shots the little kid is in a coat is adorable and I appreciate it after such a deep song. It's nice to just take a moment and think 'wow this must have been really fun sometimes!'
It was so hard to find but here are the actor's names:
Brock Brenner (the kid)
Dorian Hampton
Camila Ivera (the waitress)
Pat Janssen
Heidi Kaufman
(The others are in life itself)
Omg BrockHampton is in the names
You fckin legend!! Waiting at least a year
Omg you're a G 😂
Good!!
Where else have I seen Brock Brenner? 🤔

Thanks a lot for commenting the lyrics, freind.
The lyrics are in the description but thanks mate
The first time I heard the song, I thought that the line “Boy, I want you to be happy, free to run, get dizzy on caffeine” said “One, I want you. Two, be happy. Three, run and get dizzy on caffeine” as if they were counting what they wanted the boy to do
Agree. I also hear four in funny and five in fly. The emotion and the song builds with the count and you can let go at fly (five). Great song.
@@jsandlaw12 100% I think he inflects that way on purpose
I have always heard that too and was wondering if it was on purpose or if only I heard that
Oh trust that’s what I thought as well
I was looking for this comment, I think he maybe did that on purpose its too coincidental
My 2 yr old grand daughter made her dancing debut this week to GA songs. Seeing her little body dancing like this made my heart burst with joy.
Keep the joy!
I found this song the day after the funeral of my friend who I loved and trusted like a little brother and saying that is still an understatement of how much he meant to me, he died at only 11 years old , he was an optimist and knew where he was heading, he took others before himself and was the most selfless person I've met, he would always great me as his hyper self running down the stairs from his room and yelling "VIIICCKKKKYYYYYYY" my God I would have done anything to make him happy, and I did, I tried, to see him upset was to see the world crumble and yet the world seemed to go with him as a whole when he left. Jesus Christ this song hits hard
What happened to him?? 11 years old and to go away...it's just pure tragedy
Your choices of sounds and melodies are fucking great, I feel so great, high and comfortable with your music guys ❤️ this vibes are life!
It's so soothing.........so pleasing.........def one of the bands one can take to the grave.
your so right!
The kid killed the dancing that's how your supposed to just vibe to glass animals
a moment of silence for those who haven't found this masterpiece yet
Just found it. Can’t stop listening.
Thank you for holding the silence. It has drawn me in one year later. Let’s hold silence for those to yet join in the next year.
I like how the kid is walking around at dawn in the beginning, then it goes directly to the mom opening her eyes like she’s waking up from a dream (of him).
This album is going to be golden
I can't imagine how my mom would cry if I ever sent her this song. I'm her second son, her first having been miscarried. Her entire life has been devoted to being a mother, and she has three surviving children, so this song would really hit her hard.
Just here crying as I wakeup dealing with life and my own problems. This song is something else when your going through it.

Funny friends that make you laugh
And maybe you're just a little bit...
It's helpful to put lyrics because I don't know what they are saying most of the time
> Now your life is back to fun
> But you see that's not for long
I hear that as "back to front". Makes more sense than "back to fun".
Théo yeah because the boy is dead.
I don't get that vibe from the music at all, neither the lyrics nor the actualy melody. Makes much more sense as a very poor mum that gave up her son to another family so that it could get a better life.
@@KaiserFredVIII bro… there are so many layers to what this could mean and tweaking the meaning to that one idea limits these different perspectives.
It seems like when she's looking for him he kind of goes away but when she's distracted she's missing out on seeing him. Youth itself kind of is like that. If you keep trying to chase after how your past used to be, it's just going to get further away. And if you try to push it away and forget about it, you miss the good things that it could've given to you. Our childhood dreams can't stay forever, but to just forget about them is kind of callous. She's also too invested in her job it seems to be able to be 'young again'.
And, like most music videos, I don't think the lyrics have the match the meaning of the video perfectly.
You're right Edward
I think in this case it's both, the video is an interpretation but yours could very well be another legitimate interpretation
Essa era do FIFA, nostalgia pura ❤️
17
Fifa 17 was so damn underated.
Crazy how far i had to scroll to see a fifa comment. Glass animals have really blown up in the last few years
Squad building challenges really changed FUT. Thanks Fifa 17, I never had a good player above 85 in Fifa 13 or Fifa 14 and in Fifa 17 I had such a good team with even 90 rated players
Me hizo acordarme de butland😡
@@luisduraznox1246 😢
fifa 17 was the best fifa ever its the goat ... and that comes from somone who played them all since 07... and the soundtracks from fifa17 were legendary
This song is so pleasant.
I love it!!!
it's good music for sure
your picture is gayyy
So is your momma
+Ron Howard lmaoooooo
They really like that water dripping sound effect.
same
It adds to the overall feel.. I personally love it!
so do i
Aren't they Djembes?
so? it sounds like water
I searched up fifa songs 😭to get hyped but I ended crying to this song 😭makes me remember how when I was a kid my mom had to work a lot of hours and took me to my grandma and I was just a happy kid without knowing how poor we was and how hard they was struggling bust still never gave up on me ❤️❤️now my mom owns the biggest and longest house with the biggest land in her neighborhood
I'm rewatching this song in 2024, it's such a style. Now I feel alive again 🌹
This band is amazing. Their lyrics have meaning and soul. The vibes are chill, and are excellent in every way.
it's literally impossible for you guys to make bad music. pls don't ever stop
This FIFA 17 banger is iconic
Yeah dude...
Interesting. She feels his presence, misses him, but never actually sees him/finds him
Its a.... gho.. ghost!
The boy is "Youth" itself. She had him, but lost him. While searching for him, he is long gone.
Exactly...it's sad. :(
Thanks for defining the deeper meaning, however I am still stressing over the fact that she's lost her child! :-O #Mothersworry
So tell me then, how do you left youth at a young age? The lyrics start with the line "Boy, when I left you you were young".
You can only leave your youth young. Youth is always young by definition.
What an emotional video. I love reading all the perceptions. From my perspective, I think it is about a single mother who worked endlessly to provide for her son the best she could, even if it meant bringing him to work and she had him taken away from her because she failed to provide an adequate life for him. Now she grieves the loss of him as she still works at the same diner endlessly.. unable to move forward.
dude no, she had him to a white guy we met at work but she was too young to support him and he didn't stay to help/she didnt tell him so she gave him up for adoption and she's grieving over that.
Chris cancercell Everyone sees it differently. In my interpretation the child died, you’re he was adopted out, theirs he was taken by foster care. There is no right answer. It’s all perspective.
It's seven years ago since I was playing El Clasico in FIFA 17 with my father. My Cristiano Ronaldo against his Messi.
Now,it's just good memories and the goats will retire.
How I miss the old and good times😭
this is absolutely one of the most underrated songs i have ever heard. it is fucking beautiful and i get chills every time i hear it.
you guys created a masterpiece and i wish i could tell you directly how beautiful it is.
YES! A continuation of "Life Itself". Glass Animals makes the best music. These guys are so underrated.
this song is so underrated! gosh it gives me good vibes and the storyline is just amazing♥
How can a song be underrated if it has only been out for two days
+Liam Pope well the band kinda is like some songs get 5 million views after 3 days of releasing!
+Liam Pope haha yeah...
You should listen to their last album, ZABA. It's incridible.
But you don't know the story line...
Didn't know a song could make me happy and sad at the same time
This is a masterpiece
Ok...sure will do man
My first born son was taken from me at 6 months old. His father, my husband at the time, lied to everyone and made me look like a monster and took away my little boy. This song is the exact way I feel about not knowing where my baby was. It was beyond anything I've ever experienced. This song and video are so on point, it terrifies me. How did Dave know?
What’s the definition of Beautiful?
This
No u
I like that coment
Parent who truly love his/her kid/s and want the best for them-beautiful
can't wait for the album! please put out more canadian tour dates!!
I second this D:::::
can I THIRD IT?!
I agree!! More Canadian tour dates!
Guys we did it there is a Toronto date added :DDDDD
next up ontario dates!! (please)
i got a heat waves ad in this video. im literally not disappointed its such a pog song
ME TOO
this is the only song that’s given me goosebumps. a mixture of nostalgia from being younger and hearing this on FIFA 17 as well as a newfound appreciation for the beauty in this song.
tbh i cry every time i watch this music video because it's so heavy and symbolic of life ugh
WestCoastWannabe same
WestCoastWannabe I get the feels when he sings 'you have my eyes'. beautiful
WestCoastWannabe Don't you mean its symbolic of Life Itself? 😁
please make a third part to this
this is too beautiful to not see them reunited
when she's older
and he steps up in her cafe
and doesn't notice at first it is him, because her sight is still clouded
but when she sees his eyes she does
is there a second one?
@@ksvideodiary999 I'm guessing the 1st part is 'Life Itself' and this is the 2nd part
This is the ultimate summer song. It just feels like every aspect of summer
i feel like i’ve heard this when i was a child on the radio. i’m 25, and it came out 5 years ago so that can’t be true,
but i feel like i can vividly remember this song coming on. it’s got a truly nostalgic tone.
u play fifa ? its from fifa 17
I don't understand this video, but the music is beautiful and very pleasing to the ears.
me neither
Kaito Reader93 I think it's about a mother that lost her son but his still there and makes noises to let her now his still there
Louie Daily Hmm. Good Point.
"The idea for this one came from a story someone told me once. They were telling me about their child, and something awful had happened to them. She was crying-but at the same time the memories that they had from that previous life made her so happy-so she was also smiling. That combination of emotions kind of made me feel like my heart was being ripped apart but also optimistic in a weird way. She had found a way to see happiness in this awful thing that had happened to her. That combination of emotions is what this song is getting at. Have a look at this character’s website, too."
Chloe Aebersold Wow. What a sad story. I think I finally understand now. Thanks for opening my eyes.
This song makes me cry sometimes. Idk why, it just does.
Egypt Hubbard me too every time I get this huge wave of emotion
Same here he casually pours his soul out in his music and its so listenable but sometimes I'm sure your subconscious picks up on what he was putting into his words and singing and it just kinda shows up in you
Egypt Hubbard ... Agreed!!!!
Me too its love and grief lyrically and haunting voice coupled with this heart wrenching video
Me too.
I wish there were more songs about the love a mother has for her child. It’s so relatable yet no one wants to sing about it
remembers me of Fifa 17 !!!
There's MGMT- Kids and then there's this spiritual sequel Glass Animals- Youth
True, I also thought about MGMT when I heard this
Little kids dancing are so cute. I remember when my nephew and daughter were that age they just don't give a shit but they still got the moves.
My nephew is four and kinda looks like him... can relate
I love it when they jig out of sync with the music they’re just wee humans still learning 🙈
My dad died before I was born on my older sisters birthday while driving to her party. I never got to meet him but I'd like to believe these lyrics would be something he'd say to me. Rest in peace Marc Owen Renville
one of the few songs i never get tired of listening ... even after all these years. Always gets me.
This boy is absolutely adorable
This song is so underrated imo
Definitely. It should be on top charts. Too bad they're not sellouts that over sell their songs on the radio to get their money's worth.
FIFA 17: Youth
FIFA 21: Heat Waves
FIFA 22: I Don't Wanna Talk
All epic songs from this great band.
FIFA 23: Heat Waves 2x
not to be that person, but my mother passed away in 2018 and i was only in 8th grade. it hit me hard and im still learning to cope. a few months ago i found glass animals and on my way to school one day this song came on and i instantly started to sob my eyes out. glass animals is and will be one of my favorite groups for the rest of my days. cant wait for the concert in march.
I'm sorry for your loss. I wish you find a good way to cope with how you feel (including listening to this song). And have fun at their concert in march!
i teared immediately reading this
I just can't get tired of thinking how beautifully directed is this video...
how to be a human being is a great album
also the kids dancing is adorable
my little brother literally danced like that... it was seriously the cutest thing
FIFA 17 introduced me to this. 😭
I dnt understand why the radio doesn't play all they bangers its sad. He a great artist
fr they only play taylor swift like i like her sure but cmon have a change once in a while
the kid in the video is actually one of the cutest kids i've ever seen
Just some thoughts... This video makes me feel the song is about mother who grieves of her child. They're not together anymore by whatever reason could be. She's dressed in red and he is in pale blue t-shirt, that's important. When he dances under the red lights this could mean she's still with him in her thoughts and tries to take care of him. When she sits at the table looking into the camera she has pale blue cup on the table - this also could mean she's always thinking of him. The pale blue empty car as a symbol of the place in her heart left empty without her boy. Also pale blue sky when she's running out looking for him could mean that now he's everywhere around her. Didn't think the song is so sad until I saw this video.
That makes this sad 😢
You got it pretty much completely correct ma dude
There's actually a music video that comes before this called "Life Itself". This seems to be the second in a trilogy of music videos.
Yes, thanks, I've spotted it a bit after. Great idea, telling one story through a series of music videos.
Awesome interpretation!
How to Be a Human Being was their best album so far.
The boy symbolizes the joy and carefree bliss of youth (hence the song title). At the end of the video the woman (who I don't presume to be his mother, personally) is going around looking for him....looking for "it" - that joy she has lost, but it (the boy) is alluding her. I take as sort of a cautionary tale about never losing the joy and wonder of living, no matter your age. But it can and does get harder as you get older.
