It doesn't matter how you found this band or this song. What's important is that you FOUND it and that it's something that makes this world a little better for you.
17 running from innocence Like it's a lion Nipping at my heels But I'm young, so I outrun 'em Jailbait baby, hunting men in their 20s Cupid's shooting arrows But I'm cold, so I outgun him Bad boy talking fast, talking dirty He tells me that I'm hot so I tell him that I love him And he says, "Girls your age Never mean what they say" I've got a renegade heart And it's screaming his name But then it beats like You've got time to kill Baby, don't go jump the gun Live fast while you're young, honey Don't go chasing love, chasing love 21 throwin' back revelry like it's morphine Thought I knew what I wanted I never saw you coming Black suit, looking sharp with your dark eyes He loves my imperfections so I tell him that I love him Bad boy talking fast, talking dirty He tells me that I'm hot so I tell him that I love him And he says, "Girls your age Never mean what they say" I've got a renegade heart And it's screaming his name But then it beats like You've got time to kill Baby, don't go jump the gun Live fast while you're young, honey Don't go chasing love, chasing love And he says, "Girls your age Never mean what they say" I've got a renegade heart And it's screaming his name But then it beats like You've got time to kill Baby, don't go jump the gun Live fast while you're young, honey Don't go chasing love, chasing love
This song really resonates with me. I was a ‘good’ kid until about 17 when I made bad decisions that would linger with me for several years. I pushed away innocence & put on a facade that I was older/maturer than my years to avoid emotions and hurt. But in reality, I wish I could have those years back to avoid all the unnecessary pain I brought upon myself. That time really does seem like a dream, and i think this song really captures that whimsical and bitter teenage delusion- a contradiction within itself. So to anyone reading this, a calloused heart is not always better than feeling emotions.
i find it weird how hey violet can pull both from transviolet's name and their song? Like, they're making it kinda obvious? This song has so much more thought and maturity in it I feel
I remembering listening to this song when I was 17 and I just felt it, I was living a toxic life lol I’m in a better place now with someone who loves me 😊💕
1:05 lol talk about heavy lana influence. Lana, Florence, Lorde and Imogen heap seem to have all given birth to all these sort of new age pop sounding artist. Awesome voice though this girl has.
+thisrandom madchick did you see them at Manchester? I was there and I believe they were having technical difficulties so that might have been why? idk haha
this song has a special place in my heart because I had no experience with relationships or love when I first heard it, then the first guy i "loved" was because he thought I was attractive, the second one i "loved" because he liked my insecurities ...
when you used to listen to this song because you loved how it sounded but didn’t ever think it would relate to you, then a few years later you find it again and now the song is scarily accurate
Both song and video have such a powerful message. I absolutely love this! The symbols and hidden meanings of the video, how the song is even changed by the video is absolutely goregous. This was such a great find. *-*
perhaps the tape symbolizes how everyone's so vulnerable. and when she's constantly yanked around maybe that symbolizes how someone's taken advantage of her? and when she finally takes the tape off she's showing her independence?(edit: god, i hope no one saw that typo)
I discovered you when you opened my twenty one pilots concert a couple of months ago and now you're going to play near me again and I'm seeing you, I'm so hyped
theyre so underrated :( i discovered them last year and i really like their music and they even reply to me on instagram i was happy :D i hope they got popular.
absolutely LOVE this so much !! i'm so glad i got that mysterious tape in the mail with this song on it, because it helped me find a really great band with really great music! keep up the great work 😌
I only got here because it was on my recommended list. I ought to trust my RUclips recommended list more often it knows me so well because HOLY SHIT. THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF MUSIC I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR.
I'm here because I fell asleep while watching a cavetown video because I was tired and autoplay was on and now transviolet is in my recommended. I listened to multiple different artists in my sleep and this is the last artist in my history. I like this very much.
I love when I find music that no one else I know is listening or telling others about. It's like having a secret. I want to tell everyone, but it seems like a better idea to keep it to myself.
"He loves my imperfections, so I tell him that I love him."
Spoke to my soul
same.
Samuel Medina YES
Samuel Medina * Lov
Samuel Medina like " he tells me that im hot so i tell him that i love him."
that part came on just as i read this . . . shook much?
Don't you just love when you find an undiscovered artist? It's like finding a hidden gem, then keeping it all to yourself.
So true.
+MetusBatman V7 who shit in your cornflakes
+Dawn Giglio "(C) 2015 Epic Records, a division of Sony Music Entertainment" - hm.
+RADAT exactly what i was going to say.
The OP is kind of dumb
+Dawn Giglio True that, i do it all the time :P
Why is this song not popular wtf I'm obsessed
Ikr it's amazing
+Summer Norfolk Agreed.
+Summer Norfolk sometimes it's not for a good reason...
+Summer Norfolk ask google or youtube why :P
i know, right? the world is cruel
Hey Violet - Guys My Age
Trans Violet - Girls Your Age
WOT
Zarah Gonzaga same
DarkOFFICIAL I guess the difference is this song is better
Glad i wasn't the only one freaked out haha
SOMEONE MAKE A MASH-UP!!!
DarkOFFICIAL yeah and their both Violet too 😂😂😂😂
yeah , i was like wtf is this some kind of joke? hahahaha
lyrically reminds me so much of early Lana, sonically Halsey, but really this stands on its own and I'm here for it
Dk bout you but i can also hear Melanie martinez
danielle taylor yessss
danielle taylor I personally also hear a bit of AURORA
danielle taylor much better than both
Mary Frančova same
transviolet - girls your age
hey violet - guys my age
"can I copy your homework?"
"yeah just change it up a bit so it looks different"
CarpexDiem the songs are so so different. gosh people are so dense.
relax pal its just a joke lmao
im a fan of both songs and both bands
CarpexDiem exactly what i thought
Words
it's a fucking joke about the titles of the song not the song itself. The only dense people here is you.
CupOfSass oh I get it now!
It doesn't matter how you found this band or this song. What's important is that you FOUND it and that it's something that makes this world a little better for you.
preach hon preach
When you're the only one here because you stumbled upon it on youtube by yourself and not from some star.
Chrissy710 I did too
Chrissy710 same
Chrissy710 same!
I did too
Chrissy710 Same hete
i listened to this song at 17, dating someone 11 years older than me. im 22 now and still friends with him, but this song brings back memories.
Are you okay?
17 running from innocence
Like it's a lion
Nipping at my heels
But I'm young, so I outrun 'em
Jailbait baby, hunting men in their 20s
Cupid's shooting arrows
But I'm cold, so I outgun him
Bad boy talking fast, talking dirty
He tells me that I'm hot so I tell him that I love him
And he says, "Girls your age
Never mean what they say"
I've got a renegade heart
And it's screaming his name
But then it beats like
You've got time to kill
Baby, don't go jump the gun
Live fast while you're young, honey
Don't go chasing love, chasing love
21 throwin' back revelry like it's morphine
Thought I knew what I wanted
I never saw you coming
Black suit, looking sharp with your dark eyes
He loves my imperfections so I tell him that I love him
Bad boy talking fast, talking dirty
He tells me that I'm hot so I tell him that I love him
And he says, "Girls your age
Never mean what they say"
I've got a renegade heart
And it's screaming his name
But then it beats like
You've got time to kill
Baby, don't go jump the gun
Live fast while you're young, honey
Don't go chasing love, chasing love
And he says, "Girls your age
Never mean what they say"
I've got a renegade heart
And it's screaming his name
But then it beats like
You've got time to kill
Baby, don't go jump the gun
Live fast while you're young, honey
Don't go chasing love, chasing love
Rowan Horan Thank you!!
Who's here because they found Transviolet on their own and like this type of music. Not because of a band?
The same xd
I'm here from a Google Music ad a while ago. So suck that.
you make it sound like a bad thing.
My friend told me to check out Transviolet. I did and i like it! So...suck that I guess but totally not necessary.
I mean actually New Bohemia was on a google commercial and I fell in love instantly but yeah Go Transviolet

Eclipsical Lane I thought the same thing!!
also the looks are quite similar and it's sad in comparison how much popularity they've earned individually.
Both the songs are wildly different though, and their look is different. So I don't agree, but ohwell!
Hey Violet was a name a fan actually chose, and Guys My Age may be similar in name, but the songs are so different. So do not assume plagiarism.
Hey Violet changed their name before this song (and album entirely) was released. Guys my age came out after. It just seems like coincidence.
I remembering listening to this song when I was 17 and I just felt it, I was living a toxic life lol I’m in a better place now with someone who loves me 😊💕
her: libra, aquarius, gemini, leo, sagittarius, aries, virgo
him: taurus, capricorn, scorpio, cancer, pisces
accurate
Acuario :')
1:05 lol talk about heavy lana influence. Lana, Florence, Lorde and Imogen heap seem to have all given birth to all these sort of new age pop sounding artist. Awesome voice though this girl has.
omg yes!!
+Cervant Christian putting Imogen Heap in the same list as Lana is a crime.
You are spot on!
+Cervant Christian marina as well
Yes! I totally hear it
Just checking these guys out before they open up for my twenty one pilots concert tonight in Newcastle, ngl they're sounding pretty cool
+Beth W I saw them last night in Leeds, they're awesome!
I saw them last night too, they're so good!!
Me too
i saw them tonight and not to be rude but it hurt my ears no one liked it it was to high and other stuff im not trying to hate on them
+thisrandom madchick did you see them at Manchester? I was there and I believe they were having technical difficulties so that might have been why? idk haha
"He tells me that I'm hot so I tell him that I love him" always cracks me up
I'm here because I like good music lmao
it's called indie music people
Katty Daddy i'm wheezing
"He tells that I'm hot so I tell him that I love him"
Sadly this is the reality of our generation
Anette Jimenez lol I guess
Like how? Girls today get constantly told how sexually desirable they are that they’ve become desensitized to it
This is the unfortunate reality of our generation and all past generations as well. This is nowhere near a recent concept.
Had been warn, still did not listen sis. (I mean me not you hehe)
and you're telling me that I found this masterpiece only now? 😍😍
this song has a special place in my heart because I had no experience with relationships or love when I first heard it, then the first guy i "loved" was because he thought I was attractive, the second one i "loved" because he liked my insecurities ...
I just love how soothing her voice is. Definitely one of my go to songs.
this song has a permanent place in my mind. Reminds me of so many memories. I still love it xx
thank you harold. this is great.
Ughhh so good. this song got me from my teenage years into adulthood. Loooovvvveeeeeeee
everyone here from Lauren and I'm here from a comment on Guys My Age
Ari The Little Mermaid same
same
Ari The Little Mermaid same
me tooo
same
When I was 15 I used to lie about my age and go out with men in their mid 20's. This song hits so deep for me.
The line 'Live fast while you're young' reminds me of the 27 club.
I demand a Halsey/Transviolet duet fucking ASAP!
Same here. I heard Gasoline by Halsey of course and I was like. Duet needed now!
+Caleb Donovan SAME!!!!! I THINK I WOULD CRY!!! Even though their sound is different, I'm sure they would both come up with a fucking bad ass song!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
SAME OMG
omg pleaase!
when you used to listen to this song because you loved how it sounded but didn’t ever think it would relate to you, then a few years later you find it again and now the song is scarily accurate
harry blessed us all with this song
The lyrics make me cry, I feel like they resonate with me I don't know why it's so weird ...
Also it's a very good song I love it !
when halsey and lana del rey meet
nona ihab true 😂😂
oh god dear lana and transviolet im sorry that this person would compare you to halsey
adore's bich halsey is great
I'm not hearing halsey in this at all
And lorde
this song always brings out the daddy issues in me.
For some reason, this is giving me a laidback Bastille vibe!
thanks lauren
sameeeeeee
Thanks lauren x2
yeeeeees 👏
Thanks Lauren x3
thanks lauren x4
thanks harry
I can't wait to see more of your singles and upcoming albums. Spotify is such a great place. Good luck on your career!
Both song and video have such a powerful message. I absolutely love this!
The symbols and hidden meanings of the video, how the song is even changed by the video is absolutely goregous.
This was such a great find. *-*
I remember my first time listening to this song I was 17 years old back then.
Now I’m 21 and I still love this song
This song is still everything
perhaps the tape symbolizes how everyone's so vulnerable. and when she's constantly yanked around maybe that symbolizes how someone's taken advantage of her? and when she finally takes the tape off she's showing her independence?(edit: god, i hope no one saw that typo)
I love that RUclips recommends all of these artists it all started with Melanie Martinez and then Halsey, hey violet and now I'm here lol
I discovered you when you opened my twenty one pilots concert a couple of months ago and now you're going to play near me again and I'm seeing you, I'm so hyped
This song makes me cry
I will forever thank Harry for helping me discover this song. It's about to be on replay all day just like yesterday.
Someone quick make a mashup of Girls Your Age and Guys My Age
WHAT I WAS THINKING... yet here we are without one
@@sillycat13_ people are age
no that hey violet song is nothing compared to this
I found one! ruclips.net/video/oToDm6HBaAM/видео.html
@@roshanfey yesss this is waayyyy better
sorry to all you "wow I know this artist before everyone else" people but this song was suggested to me on Spotify, don't feel so special
Ryan Pooley YO SAME HAHAHAHAHAHAH

these guys are supporting tøp this feb... looking forward to this concert !
I've definitely listened to this at least 50 times in the past 2 days, love it
Every lyric speaks to younger me. I remember being 17 listening to this. He tells me that I'm hot, so I tell that I love him
everyone in the comments be like "lauren brought me here" when harry tweeted the lyrics already about 10 years ago 😎😎
yes!
the promo he did tho lol they even thanked him recently
theyre so underrated :( i discovered them last year and i really like their music and they even reply to me on instagram i was happy :D i hope they got popular.
Keep it raw, keep it honest.

Listening to this is like a spiritual experience.
THEY ARE PERFECT. THIS VIDEO IS PERFECT. THE SONG IS PERFECT.
"He tells me that I'm hot, so I tell him that I love him" God I've never related to lyrics more
This video is AMazing! Like...seriously well done (: great job Transviolet! I love your style
💜 getting obsessed over Transviolet💜
hey violet - guys my age
transviolet - girls your age
actual songs - have nothing in common
I came here because of myself, thanks me.
I'm pretty bomb.
omg same here xD
Hell yeah
This reminds me a bit of Melanie Martinez and Broods. 😍
the milk in jon's glass reference makes this video next level.
please stop comparing them to other artists, they're one of the most genuine and original bands out there
absolutely LOVE this so much !! i'm so glad i got that mysterious tape in the mail with this song on it, because it helped me find a really great band with really great music! keep up the great work 😌
yelyahisperfect dude i was so confused when i got one, how did they get our addresses??
I like this more then guys my age
I only got here because it was on my recommended list. I ought to trust my RUclips recommended list more often it knows me so well because HOLY SHIT. THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF MUSIC I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR.
Found Transviolet about a month ago and I demand a new album already. Thx
This song defines my best friend. Damn now I gotta send this to her
damn they were yankin tf outta her 😂😂
Idk why this song and music video make me cry
This song is magical
Just randomly remembered this song lol
i thought this was going to be a parody of Guys My Age by Hey Violet o.O
Okay I rlly thought it was some hey violet cover, but this song is honestly so good, like how can something be so perfect?
I’m obsessed with this. Everything about this.
Want to love this so badly, but how she pronounces 'love' is killing me lmao.
lahhhhhhhv
Knotai カラス I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE !!!!
Yeah it’s weird lmao
Thought she was saying "chasing walls" wtf
this song came out almost a year before HV's Guys My Age,,, who clapped back who now b👀👀
Listened to this song in a radio station in Brazil! Congratz!!! :D
Why is this song so addictive? I can't stop listening to it
Thank you Lauren
same
It's weird bc I can you see you as a 17-year-old but also as a middle aged mom
Really does remind me of Lana del Rey and I'm really loving it 🖤
I'm here because I fell asleep while watching a cavetown video because I was tired and autoplay was on and now transviolet is in my recommended.
I listened to multiple different artists in my sleep and this is the last artist in my history. I like this very much.
they played on the radio once and I got fucking hooked
Lauren is amazing
is true
true
true
I love this song so much! Did anyone else think it was so cool when she blinked and her eyes changed color?
I love when I find music that no one else I know is listening or telling others about. It's like having a secret. I want to tell everyone, but it seems like a better idea to keep it to myself.
+Rachel Burns If you want them to keep making music, better to not keep it to yourself. Gotta expand that fanbase.
Hey Violet - Guys My Age
Transviolet - Girls Your Age
How ironic
Can't wait to see you and twenty one pilots next week
|-/
This song defines 2017 for me
Omg same
This makes me cry
