Sounds like a song that would have been all over the radio when I was a teen in the 90's. That was a magical time...for us older farts that grew up then...at least in our fading memories that grow fonder with each passing year. It really was the last time to experience the wonder of coming of age without social media and all the shit that must come along with that for kids today. Anyhow, enjoy the music and remember to look up from your phones every once in a while!
Me and my best friend, Agustin, loved this song. This was our song when we were dating and we listened to it all the time. He passed away about a week ago and listening to this song just reminds me of us so much. He got me one of your vinyls and you all signed it. It’s my favorite gift I have ever received. Thank you for being a big part of his and my life. I’ll continue to play your music when I visit his grave so he doesn’t miss the new releases. Thank you 💛
I had the pleasure to see this band opening for DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE in Cologne last week. THE BETHS really have great potential. I bought the debut album - one of the best debut albums of the last 10 years, incredible catchy and dense. I hope that they will receive the success they deserve.
Summer 2020. I matched on tinder with a girl I’d had a thing for since high school. By the fall, what was originally supposed to be a long-anticipated hookup turned into a budding relationship. Spring 2021. 6 months into this passionate but turbulent romance in troubled times, I come across this song. I think about how much it resonates with me - how I think this girl is probably going to break my heart one day, and how I want to risk it anyway. I add it to her playlist. November 2023. Today. I’m packing my things to move out of our apartment. We broke up two months ago, and two weeks ago stopped trying in vain to patch things up. All the things past me warned future me about came true. Future me hates past me, but it was still worth it.
I mean the following with the best of intentions, no snark implied... At least you have a brilliant song to attach to all the good and bad memories of this relationship.....
Crazy, I finally searched this song on RUclips after months of listening to it on Spotify expecting 10 mil views, to find only 311k! It deserves way more as it's a classic hit. Just wanted to say I love the singer's NZ idiomatic vocal mannerisms such as when she says "future heedaches" and "i'm defeeenseless".
As someone who produced a music video show in the 80's and 90's, and who's never stopped listening to new music, this is genuinely my favorite song of 2018. Looking forward to their US tour later this year.
Heard this song on the radio half an hour ago and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Using my (limited) knowledge of the lyrics I was able to find this video. I'm really chuffed.
Love this song, which I found through my Spotify Discover playlist. After my third or fourth listen, I thought to myself that I was listening to the musical successor to Rilo Kiley, who I miss dearly. Was not surprised to then find that the Beths' lead singer idolizes Jenny Lewis and credits a Rilo Kiley album as the most influential album in her life. Looking forward to listening to the rest of the album.
Thank you for this! I just heard this band today for the first time, thanks to Joe Scott. One of the other songs I listened to by th Beths made me feel a strong Rilo Kiley vibe. I was lucky enough to see Jenny Lewis live twice. Once with the Postal Service and then a Rilo Kiley show. Now I will be looking for the Beths to come to the USA after these lockdowns finally end!
Love them! Just saw them in Brooklyn at Warsaws - they were amazing. Great sound, great harmonies, the band is so tight. All excellent songs, perfect show. Sold out show and the crowd was very into it , knew every word. Long live The Beths.
After having a couple years to digest this incredible tune, I have to agree with you. The lyrics and melody are as good as pop/rock songwriting can be, and they've arranged and recorded it brilliantly.
This song actually makes me feel stuff. You guys have something here! Wish I could have seen you in Seattle but the show was sold out. Heard you live on our awesome KEXP.
The Beths "Future Me Hates Me" I never wanted to, I didn't want to fall I don't believe that love's a good idea at all Oh this well designed world Everyone that I know is broken And has fell for it before And sometimes I think I'm doing fine I think I'm pretty smart I'm quite convinced that I Can keep myself up high Oh then the walls become thin And somebody gets in, everything's less But it won't happen again It probably won't happen again But there's something about you There's something about you There's something about you I wanna risk going through Future heart break, future headaches Wide eyed nights late lying awake With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes Future me hates me for, hates me for It's getting dangerous I could get hurt I know I've counted up the cons They far outweigh the pros Oh and if word gets you down It's a mob or a sound, I am drowning It's too late for me now I need you sticking around Cause there's something about you There's something about you There's something about you I wanna risk going through Future heart break, future headaches Wide eyed nights late lying awake With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes Future me hates me for, hates me for Future heart break, future headaches Wide eyed nights late lying awake With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes Future me hates me for, hates me for Future heart break, future headaches Wide eyed nights late lying awake With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes Future me hates me for, hates me for Future heart break, future headaches Wide eyed nights late lying awake With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes Future me hates me for, hates me for Future heart break Future cold shakes
@@declankennedy4379 I found out you needed to be fully vaccinated plus a booster at least a week before the show.... there was no time to get a booster and thus I missed the show T_T It's a big disappointment but sometimes life hands you lemons and you play board games at home instead.
The sound of this song perfectly sums up the wonder of childhood and also the pain of losing it and growing old... idk it makes me nostalgic but in a weird way
awesome!. the music scene now reminds me of when i was in my 20's and you had blake babies/ juliana hatfield, veruca salt and liz phair. lots of cool women in music today. i love it. i love liz's accent.
last monday i saw liz phair with speedy ortiz. and friday night i saw swearin'. juliana hatfiled joined liz on stage for a song...talk about a star studded week of awesome ladies. this friday i see weakened friends...annie and sonia, week after is breeders...week after that is joy formidable and tancred and the week after that is mannequin pussy. ive got shows for days.. oh crap...lemuria and bethleham steel is in there too. geez thats a lot of driving..
Ngl, this song speaks to me a lot, especially given the year it was released: 2018. 2023 me vehemently hates 2018 me, especially given I was very young and careless in 2018 and now, I'm not so young anymore.
I never wanted to I didn't want to fall I don't believe that love's A good idea at all Oh this well-designed woe Everyone that I know is broken And has fell for it before And sometimes I think I'm doing fine I think I'm pretty smart I'm quite convinced that I Can keep myself apart Oh then the walls become thin And somebody gets in I'm defenseless But it won't happen again It probably won't happen again But there's something about you There's something about you There's something about you I wanna risk going through Future heart break Future headaches Wide-eyed nights late-lying awake With future cold shakes From stupid mistakes Future me hates me for Hates me for It's getting dangerous I could get hurt I know I've counted up the cons They far outweigh the pros Oh and the floodgates are down It's the Marlborough Sounds I am drowning It's too late for me now I need you sticking around 'Cause there's something about you There's something about you There's something about you I wanna risk going through Future heart break Future headaches Wide-eyed nights late-lying awake With future cold shakes From stupid mistakes Future me hates me for Hates me Future heart break Future headaches Wide-eyed nights late-lying awake With future cold shakes From stupid mistakes Future me hates me for Hates me for (Ba-bah ba, bah bah bah) (Ba-bah ba, bah bah bah) (Ba-bah ba, bah bah bah) Future heart break Future headaches Wide eyed nights late-lying awake With future cold shakes From stupid mistakes Future me hates me for Hates me for Future heart break (The floodgates are down) Future headaches (It's the Marlborough Sounds) Wide eyed nights late-lying awake (Walls become thin and somebody gets in) And future cold shakes (It's a well-designed woe) From stupid mistakes (Everyone that I know) Future me hates me for (Is broken) Hates me Future heart break (Floodgates are down) (It's the Malborough Sounds) (Walls become thin and somebody gets in) Future cold shakes (It's a well-designed woe) (Everyone that I know is broken)
Don't ask me why, cuz I can't explain it, but this song and especially the video makes me incredibly happy. Future me loves current me for listening to Liz and The Beths!
In a perfect world this song would be a huge hit worldwide
my channel 5 It’s growing. A whole bunch of different places brought people here.
In a DECENT world. ..
It's not the most popular but they're not unknown.

@@wowwow-xp9sk I hope you never have to experience significant loss in your life
😢 ❤
The chorus always makes me smile. I love how Liz's kiwi accent comes through on the word "Headaches." Perfect indie pop.
hiddaches
To me this song sounds like Taylor Swift wrote a song for ABBA and they recorded it with The Breeders and George Martin as producer.
The Marlborough Sounds is the tell-tale.
the chord progression gives me pinkerton vibes.
current me likes you
this is cute🌌💞
I live for the way she sings "Everyone that I know is broken" in that NZ accent.
Or the future hidaches
I absolutely adore this band, so sweet, genuine, and still heartbreaking. I need the Beths sticking around

There''s something about this moment that I love

It has 10 mill on spotify now :)
@@youthofyesterdayrecords No, it's Luz from The Biths.
I cannot get this chorus out of my head
Ryan Zepp so catchy right ?!
Genius of a hook, lyrically and musically, this entire song is brillant as is this whole record
@@jackmack7533 This record is renting a room in my head! ;)
Me neither.
God bless everyone still waking up everyday chasing their dreams salute
This song has something so special and true. It always feels like it listening to this, listening to the Beths.
I so agree😊💙
As someone who produced a music video show in the 80's and 90's, and who's never stopped listening to new music, this is genuinely my favorite song of 2018. Looking forward to their US tour later this year.
Definitely my favorite album of 2018. I love this track, and have really been digging Little Death lately.
Sheet fye
As someone who first heard this in 2023, we need a better way of promoting music. I should've heard this song years ago!
Power pop at its best
Heard this song on the radio half an hour ago and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Using my (limited) knowledge of the lyrics I was able to find this video. I'm really chuffed.
This song makes me cry sad tears of joy. It's the best song ever written about what it's about. Period. God bless the Beths
Is it bad that I was SUPER invested in the onstage storyline in this cute cool video
Yes
Glad I wasn't the only one hahaha
when I was a youth in Montréal there were sometimes wonderful warehouse parties full of performances like these, they are so refreshing
why are The Beths the best thing ever and not even the best thing ever yet?!
Just saw them in Melbourne tonight. As an expat kiwi it was such a beautiful show.
Perfect pop song. All their songs are great. Have cool hooks, lyrics and guitars.
I have listened to this song every day for three weeks straight. Solid!
This song is so cheerful but the lyrics is so relatable in a sad way for me :') i can enjoy that
This song has not stopped absolutely slapping since the first time i heard it, such a banger. 10/10
Great song, that one guitar rift reminds me of the song Skin by The Wannadies which i absolutely love
God Bless The Beths for writing this song. A truly incredible jam and Liz Stokes voice has all the hearts

Another brilliantly original song subject👍👏🏼🫡
Crazy 90s sound.. can't believe I am just finding out about these guys now..
This song makes me feel like the main character of a movie
Make no mistake..this is a perfect song. Or as close as one gets. Perfect sound.
After having a couple years to digest this incredible tune, I have to agree with you. The lyrics and melody are as good as pop/rock songwriting can be, and they've arranged and recorded it brilliantly.
2:55 Beth's little head shake is so adorable 😳
The intro looked like improv. I feel like Elizabeth was intentionally kept in the dark to get that genuine surprised reaction. Very cool
This song actually makes me feel stuff. You guys have something here! Wish I could have seen you in Seattle but the show was sold out. Heard you live on our awesome KEXP.
The starfish playing with it's fins cracked me the f up. This song is so godamn pretty
I could listen this to another 100 times before I need to go to sleep, where I'll probably sing it in my sleep.
The Beths
"Future Me Hates Me"
I never wanted to, I didn't want to fall
I don't believe that love's a good idea at all
Oh this well designed world
Everyone that I know is broken
And has fell for it before
And sometimes
I think I'm doing fine
I think I'm pretty smart
I'm quite convinced that I
Can keep myself up high
Oh then the walls become thin
And somebody gets in, everything's less
But it won't happen again
It probably won't happen again
But there's something about you
There's something about you
There's something about you
I wanna risk going through
Future heart break, future headaches
Wide eyed nights late lying awake
With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for, hates me for
It's getting dangerous
I could get hurt I know
I've counted up the cons
They far outweigh the pros
Oh and if word gets you down
It's a mob or a sound, I am drowning
It's too late for me now
I need you sticking around
Cause there's something about you
There's something about you
There's something about you
I wanna risk going through
Future heart break, future headaches
Wide eyed nights late lying awake
With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for, hates me for
Future heart break, future headaches
Wide eyed nights late lying awake
With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for, hates me for
Future heart break, future headaches
Wide eyed nights late lying awake
With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for, hates me for
Future heart break, future headaches
Wide eyed nights late lying awake
With future cold shakes from stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for, hates me for
Future heart break
Future cold shakes
You were the sound of the trans Canada highway! I cranked this song passing thunderbay! Omw down to toronto!

How was it?

@@avalonperez3806 Dang :( sorry to hear that. Hope you can catch a show in the future
Proof you don't need to rock the world if the world rocks with you
I can’t handle the staring into the camera and smiling a little at the “but there’s something about you part” 😩😩
when i listen to the voices, new zealanders are just scottish australians
The sound of this song perfectly sums up the wonder of childhood and also the pain of losing it and growing old... idk it makes me nostalgic but in a weird way
IS THIS THE BEST BAND EVER?
Yes
Future me loves me because i found you just in time! god damn, this is refreshing!
your chorus's always surprise in such a wonderful way
Nice.Great hooks and melody
God, I love this band.
1st time I heard this song was on KEXP. I can't believe this song doesn't have 1m views already!?! Definitely one of their hits.
TRACK OF THE YEAR
I feel like they made this music for me. “Like” if they made it for you too
I love the drummer in the star costume just smacking the drums
Thank you RUclips for recommending The Beths. I get a Weezer vibes along with 90's music feel too.
This song is the definition of slaps
Shel Silverstein was always my favorite drummer
awesome!. the music scene now reminds me of when i was in my 20's and you had blake babies/ juliana hatfield, veruca salt and liz phair. lots of cool women in music today. i love it.
i love liz's accent.
We must be of a similar vintage, a lot of current music sounding very 90s-ish!
Word. This is true
I love that 90's alt/indie is now influencing young musicians.
last monday i saw liz phair with speedy ortiz. and friday night i saw swearin'. juliana hatfiled joined liz on stage for a song...talk about a star studded week of awesome ladies. this friday i see weakened friends...annie and sonia, week after is breeders...week after that is joy formidable and tancred and the week after that is mannequin pussy. ive got shows for days.. oh crap...lemuria and bethleham steel is in there too. geez thats a lot of driving..
Totally agree, music is in great hands, such great bands around - King princess, Wolf Alice, The Regrettes, Courtney Barnett. Life is Sweet
the council of beths approves
(you might say that the Beths endorse The Beths)
Can't wait to see you guys in Perth with Green Day, Fallout Boy and Weezer
Lucky! My show isnt playing The Beths.

@@alittlebitoflight hmm. Great find for me by the way!
If you like this, you should check out Alvvays. They have a similar 90's ish vibe.
Can't believe this song isn't a world hit
Even better live, can you even imaginw how good they are , they are pure joy to the soul
This is one of the most positive and uplifting music videos I have ever seen. I love The Beths :)
New Zealand rocks!
I love the star tapping on the drums
that bass and guitar tone!
Thank you Rick beato
Hell yea this is what I was looking for
same
This sound, oh my God, yes!
Oh my. This is my second Beths song and it is unbearably cute and amazing in its truth.
oh this is music, funny how these kind of bands who make actual music only have 10k subs and are not famous
Wow! What a great song!! “It’s getting dangerous, I could get hurt again” wow!!!
This feels so much like 90s Australia. It's like a warm hug
Pretty close. NZ.

I saw them @ Best Kept Secret Festival in the Netherlands. Loved it!
The mix is excellent
I'm in love with this song right now.
I just seen that you are coming to phoenix!! I'm so there!!
An anthem for our times.
what a tune
July 2021 this song still can be a daily play
Heard this Song on german Radio (radioeins) a few days ago . I can‘t get the chorus out of my head since then. Great song from a great band.
Still making me happy every time!
내 상태를 너무 명확히 표현한 노래입니다. 미래는 절 싫어하네요
First heard this song when they came to Seattle, been stuck in my head ever since
Seattle? When? : (
I never wanted to
I didn't want to fall
I don't believe that love's
A good idea at all
Oh this well-designed woe
Everyone that I know is broken
And has fell for it before
And sometimes
I think I'm doing fine
I think I'm pretty smart
I'm quite convinced that I
Can keep myself apart
Oh then the walls become thin
And somebody gets in
I'm defenseless
But it won't happen again
It probably won't happen again
But there's something about you
There's something about you
There's something about you
I wanna risk going through
Future heart break
Future headaches
Wide-eyed nights late-lying awake
With future cold shakes
From stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for
Hates me for
It's getting dangerous
I could get hurt I know
I've counted up the cons
They far outweigh the pros
Oh and the floodgates are down
It's the Marlborough Sounds
I am drowning
It's too late for me now
I need you sticking around
'Cause there's something about you
There's something about you
There's something about you
I wanna risk going through
Future heart break
Future headaches
Wide-eyed nights late-lying awake
With future cold shakes
From stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for
Hates me
Future heart break
Future headaches
Wide-eyed nights late-lying awake
With future cold shakes
From stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for
Hates me for
(Ba-bah ba, bah bah bah)
(Ba-bah ba, bah bah bah)
(Ba-bah ba, bah bah bah)
Future heart break
Future headaches
Wide eyed nights late-lying awake
With future cold shakes
From stupid mistakes
Future me hates me for
Hates me for
Future heart break
(The floodgates are down)
Future headaches
(It's the Marlborough Sounds)
Wide eyed nights late-lying awake
(Walls become thin and somebody gets in)
And future cold shakes
(It's a well-designed woe)
From stupid mistakes

Future me hates me for

Hates me
Future heart break
