it reminds me of myself sitting on the Han river park in Seoul... playing all songs of The Japanese House and just watching beautiful river view, people taking a walk and enjoying their weekend.
So lucky you live there... I would like to visit the Han river in Seoul one day, I'm gonna work hard for it! Also I discovered one of my name is korean, which is Sol? It means sun in Spanish that's why my mom put in on me but coincidenlly I heard it is a korean name too
@@Elí-1984 I was referring to the Cocteau Twins who were an old guitar based act from the 90's - check them out - you might like them. Their track called Bluebeard in particular was a super lush guitar based track.
This song gets me dreamy and nostalgic feeling. It’s like I’m in a different dimension with a gloomy weather with a lot of past random memories in my mind. I love it.
This song makes me feel like I’m the main character in some movie and my coming of age moment is about to happen, you know the part where I take control of my life and get my that happy ending I’ve always wanted.
"I tried my best at sleeping but my dreams were unappealing" i have never spoken about this with anyone but i have aphantasia (i don't "see" my dreams i just experience storys which apperently isn't how my friends experience dreams) and i used to lucid dream and whenever i started actively "controlling" the narrative of my dream i used to get into this kind of sleep paralysis state. So i stopped trying to "control" my dreams and eventually stopped lucid dreaming. I barely ever have dreams now. I see so many people wanting to experience lucid dreaming but that can be so scary! I was so afraid to sleep at some point. It obviously doesn't have that much to do with the song but that line just brought those memories i tried so hard to supress back up and I just needed to express myself. Have a nice day, or night whenever you're reading this.
@@shin3071 oh hope you have someone to talk to about that! Coping with something by yourself really isn't a healthy solution. Don't try to actually hurt yourself your life is important and there are people who love you. Feel free to reach out if you need someone to talk. Sending you love and pls pls pls promise me to talk to someone who supports you ❤
Lyrics: Now tell me something Is there a point to this? Or are we living for the Feeling when we look back on what we did and reminisce? 'Cause I’ve looked within and I've read But instead I keep focusing On just how thin I can get Now I'm looking for something else I found myself, I'm someone else I keep looking for something Even though I know that it's not there (Maybe you're the reason) Every time I try to figure it out You're the only thing I can think about (Maybe you're the reason) And I think I'm dying 'Cause this can't be living Should I be searching for some kind of meaning? Apathy's a funny feeling I turned my gaze to the ceiling Thanked a God I don’t believe in for the scene outside I tried my best at sleeping but my dreams were unappealing So I searched for people in the landscape, passers by I keep looking for something Even though I know that it's not there (Maybe you’re the reason) Every time I try to figure it out You're the only thing I can think about (Maybe you're the reason) I keep looking for something Even though I know that it's not there (Maybe you’re the reason) Every time I try to figure it out You're the only thing I can think about (Maybe you're the reason)
She is a truly special talent. Like many I first heard them on PES mobile game (it’s my only real exposure to new music these days😂). Enjoying exploring more of her music
i love this with all of my heart there's not one single song that amber has made that i don't love she's literally my favorite human being ever and i don't even have the words to describe how much all her work means to me
we're all dying, that's not important, what's important is what you do with your time. So try finding something that makes it worth the while, and hang in there, everything is a transition, nothing ever stays the same. Not even the bad things.
I heard this song from my brother and I shazamed it, I cant believe this kind of good music was made 4 years ago I'm so glad I stumble into this music I love her style of music
Such a pretty song and something I went through. Or maybe we all go through it at some point. We look back to an age where we were our "most ideal selves." Maybe it was a state of mind you loved, or how you saw the world in that moment, how you behaved and were, or the things and people in your life. It was the most ideal. And then as time passes, the cycles of life changed on you again. Change of work or positions, departments, majors, friend groups, houses, rooms, cities, ideologies, state of mind. Just fluxing and then we are caught in a place that doesn't feel like home. It feels like we passed a train. That this is not the you you wanted to be yet or had been. It's like...a haunting ghost then, that "you". And for me, it was my past self, innocence. I wanted so much for this world and from it. To think I'd become this. But self love starts with accepting where you are and how you're still in progress. Amazing. Even this you, that you love or hate or are indifferent to, you will change. It's the passage of time. The cycles of life. And we have no way of knowing who we'll be in 5 years. Will we still like the same music? Will we still love ourselves and our dreams? This is what this song meant to me. I just hope you can be good to you, no matter where you are in your self development. Hope is a nightmare. And yet, the most beautiful ideal that ignites every road onward.
This video changes my whole perspective of the song. It isn’t about someone else, it’s about herself. To become something more. Change. Or at least that’s what I got from the video
I cannot - for the life of me - remember where I heard this. But, i did, and I added it to a generic “chill out” Spotify playlist, found it on shuffle one night, and am forever grateful ❤️
Only heard this today downloaded it from google play never heard of japanese house before great song i like it reminds me of the beloved crossed with the korgis and prefab sprout its beautiful
Allie, regardless of whether it's with me or someone else. You deserve to have the greatest love story of all time! You are truly a remarkable and amazing woman! Gifted and talented beyond anything I have ever seen! A pure joy to know! I want you to have all the love, peace and joy that this life has to offer!
i listening to the new album right now and there's just something about the sound, her voice, the lyrics and her music in itself that get to me in such a deeper lever than any other musicians out there. she's just changing the game and i wish all the success and happiness she deserves. love love love from uruguay!
We all have a story behind our favourite songs. Mines not that interesting but it has its place in my life- I’m from the UK but spent the year studying in Winnipeg, Canada. I discovered this song the same day I was due to fly out to Vancouver to spend some time in British Columbia. I practically listened to it on repeat 1 the entire flight out and transfer to my hotel downtown. I’ve visited many parts of the world in my life in Europe, North America and Asia, but have yet to fall in love with somewhere like I have Vancouver. So this song will now forever go hand in hand with my favourite place in the world. A pretty big feat for one song :)
Esta canción es celestial, increíble, perfecta, hermosa y todos los sinónimos que puedan haber, me gusta DEMASIADO. Definitivamente es de mis favoritas
You have great taste in music! I suggest you check out some more of her songs then! You won't be disappointed. "Follow My Girl" and "Face Like Thunder" are also fantastic songs! She released a debut album in March; "Good At Falling" You can check that out if you can. Happy listening! 👍
I just found out about this song few days ago and I cannot stop listening to it, I relate to every word, I feel I attracted this song to my life especially in this phase. I love it ♥️
I'm so glad I bought this Vinyl. I was shocked I could find this at my local vinyl store. Dude there definetely knows his shit. Listened to this album drunk today, really helped me. Thank you Amber.
go listen to the entire album everyone. its insanely good.
huhndaking777 what's it called?
@@elliotkcollins Good at Falling
Kinda want to buy anything from Amber, probably with my next paycheck. No chicken for dinner next week 😞.
On repeat repeat repeat
i do all the time. i love f a r a w a y
admit it guys. our taste of music is amazing
Don't do this. Don't make people hate us
I just discovered The Japanese House and Amber Bain's voice is amazing
Fadhlan we have great taste indeed 🤙🏽
Eymmm 2 minggu lagiii doi dateng
He’s right, I grew up listening to Metallica, Marilyn Manson and smashing pumpkins 🤷🏻♂️. Now I’m into Julien Baker, phoebe Brigers etc.
Love It If she made it.
nice hahah
matty did lol
what if WE made it? xd
did she not? she wrote it.
i understood that Reference xD
i like how it can be understood two ways:
- you're the reason for my existence
- you're the reason for my existential dread
She want to meet herself i mean the good part and its amazing,
I work in H&M Russia. I heard this song in the shop 100000 times. Finally i found this :3
I heard this song playing somewhere and i thought i have to find this song and i did, glad i did.
Gotta get Shazam for your phone!
@@jandesteen9736 i dont use phone when im working :)
this does sound like a H&M song
Shout to H&M for picking up songs like this
it reminds me of myself sitting on the Han river park in Seoul... playing all songs of The Japanese House and just watching beautiful river view, people taking a walk and enjoying their weekend.
it must be nice living there :(
So beautiful to enjoy the little things ✨
So lucky you live there... I would like to visit the Han river in Seoul one day, I'm gonna work hard for it! Also I discovered one of my name is korean, which is Sol? It means sun in Spanish that's why my mom put in on me but coincidenlly I heard it is a korean name too
Such a great unexpected chord progression. What a breath of fresh air this lot are. Hints of the Cocteau Twins in there too. Utterly gorgeous.
Love the unexpected chord progression! I could sense a bit of Imogen Heap in it as well
It’s just one woman- no twins, just special effects
@@Elí-1984 I was referring to the Cocteau Twins who were an old guitar based act from the 90's - check them out - you might like them. Their track called Bluebeard in particular was a super lush guitar based track.
May The Japanese House never stop making music. Also, I just LOVE the band name, being half Japanese.
I discovered this artist at a pretty rough time in my life (now lol) and the music has been holding me together.
welcome!
Hope you’re feeling better now
Damn this is dope. have a crush on this one
This song gets me dreamy and nostalgic feeling. It’s like I’m in a different dimension with a gloomy weather with a lot of past random memories in my mind. I love it.
“I keep looking for something even though I know that it’s not there” DAMN I FELT THAT
Billie Eyelash that's exactly what I call Billie eilish. And go listen to Out Of Sight by Chelou. That's the song you're looking for.
Even though I know that it's *NOT THERE.
Lol i had to like your comment cuz I am into eyelashes
perfecto by mac miller is about a similar concept :)
This song makes me feel like I’m the main character in some movie and my coming of age moment is about to happen, you know the part where I take control of my life and get my that happy ending I’ve always wanted.
Gina Leonora We all feel that moment, especially when we arrive late and the opportunity has definitely slipped away from our hands.
Best comment I’ve read in a while 🤣 so true though
i am in that position right now,youtube has been giving me the perfect playlist
Gina feel like it’s more of an opposite. I got the vibe from the video that the person is in a limbo of not having a reason since their lover is gone
@@sage7296 share some golden music plzz
This song is fast becoming one of my favourites of all time
theflemface me too!
It IS my favorite out all of their music thus far
LEGIT SAME
ugh yes
@@marshielove3263 UGH. So good
Wow, 3 years this has been out. Happy to have found it.
'I keep looking for something even though I know that it's nothing'. I can relate to that and their lyrics just resonates with me

I am having nightmares for past few months😞 in which i found that i am cutting myself and many more bad things

Wow. The music is SO well-polished well-coated with extraordinary gloss!
Lyrics:
Now tell me something
Is there a point to this?
Or are we living for the
Feeling when we look back on what we did and reminisce?
'Cause I’ve looked within and I've read
But instead I keep focusing
On just how thin I can get
Now I'm looking for something else
I found myself, I'm someone else
I keep looking for something
Even though I know that it's not there
(Maybe you're the reason)
Every time I try to figure it out
You're the only thing I can think about
(Maybe you're the reason)
And I think I'm dying
'Cause this can't be living
Should I be searching for some kind of meaning?
Apathy's a funny feeling
I turned my gaze to the ceiling
Thanked a God I don’t believe in for the scene outside
I tried my best at sleeping but my dreams were unappealing
So I searched for people in the landscape, passers by
I keep looking for something
Even though I know that it's not there
(Maybe you’re the reason)
Every time I try to figure it out
You're the only thing I can think about
(Maybe you're the reason)
I keep looking for something
Even though I know that it's not there
(Maybe you’re the reason)
Every time I try to figure it out
You're the only thing I can think about
(Maybe you're the reason)
Thanks
❤
Causes fire
Thanks
As a non native speaker written lyrics are always useful
Artists should include this always
Some of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard
Brilliant euphoric melodies with just a hint of sadness, what's not to love. Amber, restoring my faith in new music.
She is a truly special talent. Like many I first heard them on PES mobile game (it’s my only real exposure to new music these days😂). Enjoying exploring more of her music
i love this with all of my heart there's not one single song that amber has made that i don't love she's literally my favorite human being ever and i don't even have the words to describe how much all her work means to me
how i feel
Where have you been all my life? Why did I only discover your work a few days ago? Well, I'm still glad. I love you.
"i think i'm dying...should i be searching for some kind of meanimg?" my life lately.
you are not alone...
Hang in there
we're all dying, that's not important, what's important is what you do with your time. So try finding something that makes it worth the while, and hang in there, everything is a transition, nothing ever stays the same. Not even the bad things.
eagletmars meaning idiot
Someone needs you more than you need yourself. That's how you find your purpose and your peace. Do it.
I heard this song from my brother and I shazamed it, I cant believe this kind of good music was made 4 years ago I'm so glad I stumble into this music I love her style of music
I just saw them in concert with my girlfriend-- and this song was the PERFECT close to the night. Thank you for such a great experience!

@catchinggates Thank you for that! Beautifully said and I felt every word.
This video changes my whole perspective of the song. It isn’t about someone else, it’s about herself. To become something more. Change. Or at least that’s what I got from the video
I keep coming back to this. LOVE the production.
What is this, I went looking for Japanese house music (in case it existed) and I find this. Soul satisfied.
And I think I am dying, cause this can’t be living...
I have been listening to this on a regular basis, one of my favorites ❤️
This is so supportive and understanding. I'm crying. We love you.....
This girl is creative with her songs.
No Spotify!
I am a faithful listener!
It's altruistic music, a sensational softpop.
She has a Spotify
This is totally what I was looking for, maybe because I have lost myself too many times but I always find the way to love my weaknesses again
this album helped me so much with my depression. thank you
I cannot - for the life of me - remember where I heard this. But, i did, and I added it to a generic “chill out” Spotify playlist, found it on shuffle one night, and am forever grateful ❤️
Only heard this today downloaded it from google play never heard of japanese house before great song i like it reminds me of the beloved crossed with the korgis and prefab sprout its beautiful
When she said: "I found myself, I´m someone else". I felt that, bro.
Just heard her songs and I'm starting to love her.
Dope song, dope video, love the colours. Can't wait to hear 2:46 live.
On repeat. I hear something new every time I listen to it. Absolutely amazing...

I saw Japanese, I clicked. So goooooooooood! Can't stop listening.
Weeb
Beautiful
Everyone’s talking about how this song cured their depression. I just like that one funky bit with the electric guitar in the chorus
Holy hell.....one of the best songs I've heard!
You have great taste in music! 👍 You should check out some of her other stuff! If you liked this you won't be disappointed 😉
you take me to places where i feel safe x
Honestly such a good way to describe how her music makes me feel ❤️
Safety is overrated
@@thepubliceye263 we all need that safe place sometimes
Really catchy. Love the guitar tone.
I always play this while im cooking breakfast. Because I have good taste in music.
wow this song and video is kinda haunting to me. everytime i listen/watch it i get this funny feeling in my chest...
The Minimalists bought me here - so glad. Really love this song. Style and voice reminds me of Imogen Heap.
I love the crunchy synth sounds
This song is just so underrated
that note at 0:58
i love that so much
I'm not normally into art rock, but a great tune is a great tune.
OK Amber. Your next release PLEASE!
This entire album is beautiful
the bass on this song is resonating with my soul on a deep level
Most of her songs has great bass. It hits you deep down I agree!
Esta canción es celestial, increíble, perfecta, hermosa y todos los sinónimos que puedan haber, me gusta DEMASIADO. Definitivamente es de mis favoritas
This song literally helps me finish my big-time essay about love ^^
this is my 43rd time listening to this song. not even joking.
you're behind, im at 134

Just discovered this song last night.. Thank goodness it just led me to heaven

THANK YOU AMBER!!!! I’ve been having a really hard week and your music is keeping me sane. Beautiful & aesthetic as always!!!
Respectful music video. Has a meaning. No nudism. No bad language.
3:27, where the song's magic is revealed.
I just found out about this song few days ago and I cannot stop listening to it, I relate to every word, I feel I attracted this song to my life especially in this phase. I love it ♥️
Such an absolutely underrated artist though. Amber you have a part of my heart ❤️
2:46 that part of the instrumental makes me nostalgic idk why
This album is crazy good. So much going on
Wow. Just plain wow. Can someone please please serenade me with this song?!?
this music really makes me feel a certain type of way,,, i am so in love.
nice, I love a song with some surprises
Sometimes RUclips recommendations are gold.❤️
I'm here for the same reason 😂
Ok. Aesthetically I love how the video ties into the overall mood of the song.
This is the kind of music you’ll listen in stores and jam to 🤙🏼
Very soothing
It sounds so modern yet so 80’s
Have you ever heard 80's music before? This ain't it.
Neo 80s ...
every song by her is insanely amazing. genius
This song is just amazing, just like everything you do.
Amazing
Glad it's on my suggestion and I accidentally clicked it! It's so good. Hopefully a lot of people will discover you soon!
I'm so glad I bought this Vinyl. I was shocked I could find this at my local vinyl store. Dude there definetely knows his shit. Listened to this album drunk today, really helped me. Thank you Amber.
So I was trying to sleep and I got a RUclips notification. First time that having trouble to sleep is worth it.
pls i love her sm
Criminally underrated! Love u guys
Congrats on the masterpiece “Good At Falling” is. You killed it, Amber.
