Lyrics
[Chorus]
Girl, would it kill you just to show a little bit of attention?
If I hurt you, I'm afraid God's gonna teach me a lesson
[Pre-Chorus]
Now would you hate me if I said goodbye
So quick you could eat my dust?
Now would you hate me if I ran like hell
In the wind from dawn 'til dusk?
[Chorus]
When you cry, you waste your time
Over boys you never liked
Can you not be so obvious?
So keep it light
So keep it light, no
[Verse]
I thought I'd vocalize my troubles, but nobody will listen
I know I'm cryptic and I'm weird, that shit comes off as indifferent
I don't wanna die so young
Got so much to do
I don't smile for the camera
Only smile for you
Smile for you
[Pre-Chorus]
Now would you hate me if I said goodbye
So quick you could eat my dust?
Now would you hate me if I ran like hell
In the wind from dawn 'til dusk?

This made me belly laugh. Thank you, sir.

@Dakota Shealey AHHHHHHHHH
I love the simplicity of it.
I found you ♡
I like that I can understand (at least my own understanding) of what this means and what he means. It's simple like you said. While also being straight to the point.
Ikr
I was just about to comment the same thing
You mean the minimalistic beat or the lyrics?
Joji's facial expression is literally what I've been feeling for the past 2 years.
I hope you’re fine man
@@MrBicboys I appreciate that, thank you.
That my facial exprassion since 10
You wanna talk about it?
@@AtheistJr I have to pay bills now
I personally want to thank JoJi's parents.

How relatable of you .
It's my favorite flavour too!
quirky xD hehe I also have depression 😚🙈😔🥺😢 ever seen one of those Simpson edits............. They hit like a different level hehe xD
We really need more Joji’s singing live
@@Ben2D Hopefully after seeing the feedback on this video he has a little more confidence in singing live more at his concerts.
YES
yeees
@@Lareshhh
You can hear some small differences between his studio track and this, but yes, it's completely live, as all Colors shows are! :)
Agree.
Joji looks like the people in the back are pointing a gun to him.
the straightjacket looking outfit doesn't help either
He doesn’t really like being there I’d say
This killed me lmao
He's maybe just moody?
Nice profile pic
Joji's voice has improved TREMENDOUSLY since this performance. He really should come back and perform some of his newer stuff.
Omg I keep coming back to this video coz he already sounds so great like??? i think I'll die if I'll get another one of these acoustic versions
I really liked the toned down voice he used during this era tbh
Yezzzz pleasee
@@mikeangelo94❤
Who ever picks the colors are gods, it really fits the vibes of this song.
Versaucey go away
@@Gabriel-ls6bk oof
Gabriel WHO hurt u?
The artists pick their colors.
@@DokPYT ye thats what i thought too, is it really true? if they pick their own colors that makes sense
He look like the guy who told me japenese bad words
LOL
It is him actually

I hope people internalize how beautiful it is that joji says he doesn’t want to die.
man looks depressssed, low-key made this song that much better
cause hes depressed
That’s the aesthetic
@@SIXTEENSIXSIXTEEN nope
@@tlc9316 yes sir!
Filty frank
Colors, please invite him again and make him sing Sanctuary.
Edit: PLEASE MAKE HIM SING RUN. WE NEED IT NOW.
Edit: Colors, so Nectar is released and we’re still here, you know? WAITING.
YESSS
Please
or L O V E U S A G A I N
tbh i didn't really like sanctuary that much, i much prefer his in toungues album and his soundcloud stuff
He has the voice of an angel
Colors is the successful version of Genius
Jacob Cook facts
They’re completely different things that actually makes no sense
alan cook ikr
uh are you saying genius is not successful lol ?
why does this have so many likes they're completely different and genius is extremely successful lmao
If he performed glimpse of us live I might die
With black background
@@orbitjunita7525 shush
honestly i think it's so emotionally intense he probably wont but im ok with that because it has a sound that feels ruined after say being overused.
But what would be nice is a studio performance with some added on to esentuate the song but thats probably not happening lol
I like the big contrast between your comment and your profile pic🤣🤟
“I don’t smile for the camera, only smile for you” how special that would be😭😭😭
Joji sings like an angel
Eeyy Chris Chann gang
Shouldn’t you be eating dogs?
go ice someone lol
You got very good taste for a half mexican :)
Always loved it when you put his music in your videos.
Did you already listen to him while only chloe burbank was going on ?
Hope your tendinitis gets better, sumo ❤
"I thought I'd vocalize my troubles but nobody will listen" love this line
"Only smile for you" is another good one but I agree
"I don't wanna die so young
Got so much to do" is pretty relatable
Victoria all of it is relatable
That line "I thought I'd vocalize my troubles but nobody will listen" reminds me of his video about exposing himself but at the time nobody really paid attention.
This line combined with the bass distortion gets me
“I thought I’d vocalize my troubles, but nobody will listen” why is this so relevant
His voice trembles like a violin and it sounds great here.
Producers: why are you expression-less the whole song?
Joji: "I don't smile for the cameras"
shit you just made me laugh man lol
He is papa franku
It’s a sign of weakness in primates
Personally i'm always expression-less
damn :(
nice work joji 💘
I loveeee😘
Where is yalls verification wtf
A mother coming to congragulate her child who have come so far.
Go Joji!
How u have over 2 mil subs and not have a check mark wtf youtube gay as hell
You look like a parent, who is proud of his/her son
"When you cry you waste your time over boys you never liked"
I forgot how much I love this song. So many good and depressingly relatable lyrics. Really takes me back to how I felt when I first found Joji.
Please invite him again, we miss Joji. Joji is what we need right now.
"I don't smile for the camera
Only smile for you"
*SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT*
I loved that
I loved that
x4
Janus Nyesssss
Wow look at the likes
My pink boi can sing
Gray now
Sad now....
Sux now
lol
Hot now
why is this not on spotify!!!!!!! honestly i think its better than the studio version
Agreed.
The mix is so much better
ITS SO MUCH BETTER
Bruh I just realised it’s a green screen at the back now the vibe feels weird
Why would you do this to me
Daniel Coulson it was inevitable
no it’s not?
I thought it was a white room and they jst changed the lighting
u are crazy my friend
it's not a green screen, plz
Why does this look sad, sounds sad, makes me sad, but still I can feel happiness inside from this song?
Ignelioo that’s Joji for you :)
because the melody is made of major chords
I can 100% prove that he is inspiration to me and I believe that he is inspiration to a lot of people around the world, in every place, ffs I love him and his music
@@ignasstonikas90 inspiration how? his music is more of a refuge, relief, emotional release but not much for inspiration, unless you re making lofi or planning suicide
He still has hope, thats why.
The line "I only smile for you" while looking at the camera melts my heart
And he knows it too
Sad boi he looks at you like u just fucking woke him up wtf u talking about
jembuf
@@goldfisher15 xD
FrenchMexican it’s his signature “Jim” look
I prefer this version to the original
Yo igual
I was a longtime filthy frank fan and although he is greatly missed im still so proud he's doing what makes him happy and was able to transition successfully to being a musician
Man he sings so well even without opening his mouth
exactly what i was thinking how is that even possible
We asians mostly talk like that in english when we're like tired, sad, or something that makes us down
@ i'm indonesian hello and i like joji
@ some asian can easily mumble sing just edit it you will be fine
Well there’s 2 ways to sing actually one is threw your mouth as in your lips are where the sounds sorta come from and one is using like your bellow sorta. It’s a interesting thing t-pain has this style as well I’m pretty sure
Joji makes me cry
👁
My CHANNEL will make you vomit
SUBSCRIBE anyway
Mumbling makes you cry? Fuck off
@@LightYagami-wt1jw Lol sorry youre mom never loved you hahahaha
8D version is out check it 🙏🤘❤🎧
why is he soooooooooooo cool? i wonder how he gets his voice on that tone... I always want to come back and listen it again.
It’s the cigs he used to chain smoke
Proof you don't need a complex beat, and crazy dynamics in your voice to produce something powerful. This song is actuality an entire mood, and sung so true to feeling and subject matter.
barely opens his mouth but sings beautifully
that's joji
Oh hell yeah Joji got on colors
D1stant feelin more like Colors got Joji on
@@jameslankester3940 Lol
@@jameslankester3940 true, he's bigger than this
@@TuttifruttiNinja Getting on colors still is an accomplishment for everyone but the Kendrick's & Cole's of this world
@@hetcoolekanaal and it's great that joji made it this far as a musician. Happy to see his life change for the better.
he 's not liyng on a single note with his voice its EXACLY the same then in the official audio, love him
Dont ever die Joji
*I thought I'd vocalize my troubles but no one will listen*
I'm listening Joji
O my gosh
on what level would you be able to respond to his troubles? Will you ever understand his struggles without experiencing them? What if inside he's disgusting to you?
You're listening, we're listening, but it won't ever be enough. Us and him: different people.
@@scootchoong3920 aahhhahah, lol, i love cunty youtube comments. just leave , go keyboard warrior somewhere else you silly prick. this all about the music not the attention your not getting..
I think he meant that we listen to you Joji, by feeling what you feel. Im feeling exactly what you are about to tell me in this song, right now and its hurting even my soul. Feeling so lost that nobody cares about your shit, because it is reality. Thank you Joji to sharing this with me. :)
@@scootchoong3920 all I'm saying is that if he feels he has no one to talk to just turn to his fans ;-;
Finally. Joji X colours. Needed this since forever.
JET MAXIMUM90 blessing our ears!
we all have
incredible
This song never gets old. No matter how much I listen, I'm never bored
Joji is what this generation needs.
Yee
i was born in the right generation
I love joji he makes me feel good When i'm in a bad time
he is beyond GOD
@@_Sat4ns.kidd0 tf? it worsens the depression does it not?
For such heavily produced tracks, his voice is still very authentic.
But he kind of mumbles when singing. I personally like clearly sung songs so pink season is still my jam
Joji always hits hard, it's difficult to explain.
"I don't wanna die so young, got so much to do". Damn that line hit me
I prefer this over the album version. The distorted bass on the album is cool but this version is better
I feel the same! Joji's clear vocals need more appreciation!
The COLORS version always better than the studio
naw
The album version is Just fk horrible
88rising is ruining everything of his that they touch
How he singing and mumbling at the same time and why does it sound so good? also.....
*press F for respect*
wrong use of respect template
F
How bout we call this mumble singing.
He's an amazing artist, but he needs to learn how to open his mouth when singing, it would make him sound 10x better
F
COLORS, how about inviting Joji again to sing, that'll be fun
his face be like "damn dude, i just woke up"
Nope, it's just called being broken
@@crxckhexd5199 wtf no!?
@@umeshkaushik2129 How come? He said several times in his songs that he's depressed
This is actually much better than recorded version.
Very true.
The beat slaps
So trueee
well thinking that he came from the airport then recording this is mindblowing
This isn’t live tho.
1:19 man can DEFINITELY SING
This man really expresses things on his songs. You can feel the music and not just hear it.
Who or whatever broke joji made him into a legend he is right now
He was loosing his voice and he had many heart attacks so he quit.
@@jupiter227 seizures*
I dont know they were similar so I mixed them up
his very own fans, and seizure
The red on the floor looks real good with the white/grayish color. Makes the red really pop.
The Boy looks like joji had his period
Why are you paying attention to that
@@evanspell727 aren't the colors like the point tho? The channels name after all. I'm always curious what color they select for an artist.
The Boy the song is called attention he’s asking for the attention not the rug
@@evanspell727 I just glanced at it haha. My playlist shows he gets a lot of attention from me
Joji: "I don't smile for the cameras"
Joji * looking in the camera*: "only smile for you."
its Samreen * still doesn’t smile
@@quiettimegaming3642 because its the camera
I don’t comment on RUclips videos, but I loved frank’s videos, and now joji’s music is so good. Let’s support the the people who can make fantastic content and then continue it a different way. Bless Franku, in all endeavors.
i don't smile for the camera
only smile for you
smile for you🙂
i think the fact that he came straight from the airport adds to the vibe of it lmao
"I don't smile for the cameras"
*look the camera*
"Only smile for you"
I'm dying
LOL
I ain't gay but that had me blushing like a 13 year old fan girl.
GameZource3 ahah sameee
INVITE JOJI TO PERFORM GLIMPSE OF US
Nobody commening on how he looks to the camera when he says "I don't smile for the cameras; I just smile for you"...
i love this part so much :((
You know I never realised how much music means to people until I saw joji.
That was deep
CB Granola that’s so true
Same
Same.
10000000
i want to hug him, he looks so sad :--(
"I don't smile for the cameras" actual genius
He said he did this strait out of the airport and was exhausted.
He’s always so pale
He is not sad all the time
I'd give him the pink suit
“ if I hurt you I’m afraid god’s gonna teach me a lesson” right on the money joji…
This version is so much better than what’s on spotify
"I don't smile to camera i only smile for u"
fax
My boi dead inside since 2011
He isnt the only one...
@@kenyakobayashi5238 haha shut up
Same though
COLORS: Which Color do you want for the background
Joji: Grey.
COLORS: But..
JOJI: GREY.
COLORS: Ok.
This song and “Love Me” by Lukaz are literally the only two things getting me through these hard times, thank god for music! I love you 💜
We must protect joji at all costs
He has been hurt so bad by himself and other people 😢
Let's get uncle frank castle to handle any of jojis beef.
please fucking protect joji i aint wanna lose him
He actually stated at one point that he’s been happier than he’s ever been and just knows how to write sad music.
I made a cute video edit of joji on my channel go check it out if u want
Joji’s songs gives me a happy and sad feeling but I love it
melancholy.
Same feelings 💘
Happy cause it’s Joji, sad cause of the lyrics 😣
We just late 2 years for this song 🥺
TAF🙋
Never is late to listen to Joji
beautiful
Raisa Bruner says: " His songs read like unedited diary entries, raw and unaffected, over unhurried beats. There's a strain of early The Weeknd's darkness, but Joji is sweeter and more resigned to fate, his songs a comforting existential sigh where other artists might scream. "
starxsirius thank you for sharing, perfectly put
his current song had more beats feels like he following some pop music
really miss his ballads song
This version is much better because he doesn’t distort his voice.
I think the distortion helps the atmosphere of the song, but i also like this version a lot.
arrow9245 yeah I think the distortion is fine on the beat, but his singing sounds better without it
There’s effects on both voices even this. It’s just through the mic trust me
I prefer this too
robert lane
It’s the low end on the original that make it sound so distorted.
His voice gives me chills like, so much smoother than in his music!! His concert in Houston was sick as hell 🥳
Thats Instagram BTW lmao
hes actually got an amazing voice
"I don't wanna die so young
Got so much to do"
Wow, i felt that.
Life can be like that tho... But Jesus gives me the hope of everlasting life 🙌
We are infinite man..
@@alexm7627 yikes

FACTS BABY
GAY
This hurted me in the chromosomes
cmon he alrdy said he wanted to be joji, yall cant stop bringing it up HERE
🥺his music just hits different
Best song of joji❤
Joji is a real dude. His music resonates with people because it has this overwhelming feeling of being authentic. To all the people saying he’s not the best singer in the comments, you’re missing the entire point..... joji is what this generation needs!
I have a cancer
馬修tofu trash couldn’t have said it any better!!
I always thought that was just my car's shitty speakers.
yesss.
馬修tofu trash NO THIS GENERATION NEEDS PAPA FRANKU BACK
Sincere. Melodic. Authentic.
Yo guys, fancy meeting you here! :)
Jungle Beats hi dead channel
Authentic? This is marketing. He has even got "cool" clothes on. The moody facial expressions. To paraphrase past Joji: "young girls go nuts for this type of crap."
Hey, guys. I hope you can get into another radio station back again if ever that's in your plans. Good luck on your channel!
This is almost 3 years ago and that makes me want to cry. Joji forever.
He is beautiful.
Joji's voice is unbelieveable💘
oh yeah yeah
yes he has come so far since beginning to sing, he is gettting better at live performances too. Imagine if he didn't damage his voice from so many years of acting as "Filthy Frank". Fuck I miss that part of him though
Wtf lmao
tbh it could use some work but its ok
Only Colors can make Grey look so good
Me sits down in school chair sees this on recommended page. Now loves his music
That's what we wanna hear
Jojis most underrated song
This sounds better than the official audio because the official one distorts his voice too much when the bass hits
Mattツ idk man I like the distortion over the clear vocals
the distortion makes it stand out. and i kinda like it ;D
I like this version so much better but it's not on Amazon music so I listen here
@@nerp__ the distortion makes the feeling of the lyrics hit wayyy harder
The distortion came when he said
"I thought I'd vocalize my troubles but nobody will listen" to emphasize the meaning of that
I'm so proud of you George, this is my favourite song and I've been waiting for you to do a colors show.
This is the most perfect video on the internet
Yeah right, yeah right
So true
Watching this made me straight cry. He grew up so much. This is fr one of few vids we get to see him just sing yk. No music video or live concert. Just him singing. A depressed song that reminds me of where I’m at in life. When he was making his old videos everything seemed so good. And now he helps me cope through life and struggles through music that just portrays every single thing I feel.
