Rob Swire of Pendulum & Knife Party once said "I really respect what Porter Robinson is doing with his own stuff - out of everyone, it seems like he gives the least fucks and just seems to do whatever he wants at all times. And it sounds sincere and unique." and I couldn't agree more especially with this new era.
Even the visual language of an influencer standing on his viewers and looking down condescendingly at them is spot-on. Anime Boy is gonna dissect and display the tragedy of online culture so well. Edit: Just realized we're looking at him through glass. Just like, ya know, watching an influencer on your phone's glass screen. Edit edit: I think the chorus--and at least parts of the verses--are this influencer Porter is playing talking to himself. The "I'm in the mirror" line particularly seems to indicate this.
I'm not gonna lie, when I heard the second verse, I was like "Hmmm... is he portraying someone with a big ego?" and then I listened again, and it does sound like that's what he's doing, so you might be onto something
@@nazurin5982”Wouldn’t know how to brush my teeth without asking my team.” And “I’m a short lived joke, as soulless as I seem” and “Got a hundred million on my wrist, physically sick.”doesn’t really sound like him talking about himself.
I love howe confident he has gotten with his voice. He went from rarely singing except backing vocals, to singing a lot more but with heavy distortion and effects, and now not caring at all singing with mostly just his voice.
i think its really just that his previous synth-heavy EDM style would sound weird with these kinda of vocals. Now that he’s doing pop-punk it makes more sense musically to have his natural voice.
The lyrics that really get me is the “Got a hundred million on my wrist, physically sick… I’m sorry can I get a pic? Telling me a sad story, another reason not to quit” and just the feeling of the person flexing their fame while it actually destroys them mentally and emotionally, and how they want to give up and go back to being a normal person but then they read all these comments or hear how their work saved ppl and they feel like they can’t give it up yet
MY THIRD ALBUM “SMILE! :D” is coming out JULY 26th!! porterrobinson.com/ the album that I was TRYING to write was this nonstop party - NO sincerity, ALL fun, an album that revels in absurdity for a world that rejects context.

Oh so you're gonna make us cry,,,,,,, good Edit: how can it be your most heartbreaking album when Nurture exists??? We'll need financial compensation, Porter
@@jennygriffin3888 I am going to greatly miss the 'lying in a grassy field listening to Nurture and trying to heal my heart' era, but I can return to it anytime:')
i just realised that the end "behind scenes" was on "Wouldn't know how to brush my teeth. Without asking my team" line and then it shows literally his team finishing the take and cheering him. Anime Boy is gonna blow everything out about internet culture and music industry
The way I interpret "I'm in the mirror baby let it all out" is that we project ourselves onto the people we idolize and hes telling us to reflect on ourselves about it instead of putting it on them.
He's saying that our idolization, is reflective of something inherently beautiful and good that resides within ourselves, and that we need to put that energy into ourselves, but also that if we need him for inspiration go for it. IMO
@@mcsavage89 personally I don't think this song is about him specifically at all. I think it's him assuming the guise of pop stars who put themselves on a pedestal above others as if they are special and have important things to share, but in reality are just artificial projections of what people need from them.
@@TheBluffStudios That's one way of seeing it. I'm connecting the dots from Cheerleader, where it seems he was speaking about the reciprocal nature of artist / fan. Since that was the impression I got from that song, I figured it was a running theme. This time putting a focus on the vanity of it, but that in reality these people are just humans too. Especially the line: "if I'm everything you talk about, why do you keep letting yourself be let down?" and "If I'm everything you talk about I'm in the mirror, baby, let it all out Knock yourself out". He's talking about the parasocial relationships we form really being a reflection of ourselves. The bridge specifically from Cheerleader, is why I formed these thoughts. Although art is subjective, so these are just my isolated impressions of the art. I love the song regardless of what message it's sending though.
Seeing Porter having fun with the new songs makes this era so cool to witness. I'd rather musicians enjoy the art they make than try and recreate the same thing over and over. 10/10 gonna go throw my phone into the sea
Samee. I'm happy he's trying something different and seems to be enjoying it so much. I'm also really loving the music so far. Can't wait for the whole album!!
It's experimental enough to keep my dumb self interested, but musically incredible enough to not actually be terrible. I absolutely love it when artists go above and beyond traditional genres to excel in their own little field. I like weird experimental music as it is, but when it actually sounds beautiful and well done? My god I could cry!
@@txchno4271 It reminds me of some songs off of Nurture honestly, just a bit more upbeat and positive sonically. Particularly I'm thinking of Musician, though I also saw people elsewhere in the comments say it reminded them of Mother a bit
The guts to call out TSwift by name in your song about selling out so completely you're no longer a real person you're just a brand is just like *muah* 1000/10
He could also be referring to changing musical genera. I was a teenage girl in Kentucky when Taylor swift was a country music artist and her move to pop was seen as selling out but ended up giving her fans amazing new music. Haha he’s Taylor swift, moving genera’s and ‘eras’.
In this new era, people casually judge every bit of other people and try to outsmart others. This album really wakes up the time when people are just being silly, genuine, and enjoying life.
Lyrics: [Verse 1] I threw my phone into the sea Simple human being Wouldn't know how to brush my teeth Without asking my team Living in the afterglow of everything you feel But, baby, I'm a short-lived joke As soulless as I seem [Chorus] And I'm everything you talk about Why should you keep letting yourself be let down?

I feel like this song is definitely Porter's reaction to fans that don't appreciate his creative freedom on the new project. It's like regardless of the frame you put me into, I am gonna be creatively free, and you can knock yourself out!
I found you when we were 100% in the B. I stood and wept to live Worlds and live Nurture. And tonight I danced in my kitchen with this on repeat while I cooked dinner for my husband and kids, and it was pure joy. Porter with the Midas touch. Stay gold, Ponyboy. 🫶
Porter: Releases banger after banger warning about the dangers of parasocial relationships Some of these comments: "Omg Porter literally determines the tone of my life" Yeah he might be on to something.
@@mcsavage89 Well yeah I'm not gonna give a full dissertation in a meme format in youtube comments of all places lmao. And I'm not talking about the average fan, I really love Porter's music. Just the comment every 10 comments or so that's basically idolizing him. His take is definitely more nuanced than just "parasocial relationships are unhealthy" but I don't think that's a bad beginner summary of it before getting more in depth on it.
the plugin at the beginning reminds me a lot to that classic intro in Thank you, my Twilight by The Pillows. This one song will definitely keep in memory too.
Fr I literally googled "songs like Owl City" once and that's how I found Postal Service. Right around the time I had a long distance break up too. Wish it got more of the recognition it deserves.
I'm obsessed with this direction. Super freaking exciting and awesome. Thanks porter for always being yourself and showing your emotions in the way you feel fit.
So super fast first impression is that this is a self-deprecating song telling his fan-base not to look up to him too much, cuz he's got his own issues he's dealing with. But if we're able to connect with him and his music, maybe we should take some time to think about why and use that as a way help ourselves.
Yes, I think he's also saying he's not actually very different from the viewer: "If I'm everything you talk about, I'm in the mirror baby let it all out". We think similar things when looking in the mirror in the morning, so spend some time to gas your own self up. If you want one of Porter's top qualities: throw your phone in the sea and be passionate about that crazy idea in the back of your head as if no one is watching... Smile :D
I had a similar impression. Like simultaneously being self-deprecating and SUPER ironically overconfident. I kinda felt that contrast in areas like “got 100 million on my wrist, physically sick”. Like this big flexer persona is something that’s being put on even though it makes you feel fucking dead inside. I could be overcooking it idk I’m super tired
I love seeing the evolution of Porter Robinson and how each one is so reflective of the state of his life. It feels really honest, but fun. //// you're voices timber + the fun beatssss really be pulling me out of a hard time in life 🙈💛 LOVE YA PORTER I DONT WANNA DIE EITHER
i know it s been 3 months and maybe you don t read the comments anymore but i was rlly depressed for a long time and u randomly put a smile on my face! Im 20 yrs and i ve been listening to you since i was 12!
I'm so thankful for him and his music.. i'm having a really bad few months, feeling like i hit rock bottom again but his music keeps me company down in my dark hole. Makes me want to stay alive just to see if it gets better someday, thank you Porter :)
Im loving the presence of Porter's natural voice! Something Comforting really made me associate his natural vocals with really making contact with his natural self and feelings. So of course this era of "just" his vocals reads very clearly.
This new era of porter is coming during a hard time in my life and could not be more excited to have something uplift me when I need a break from society and other songs I listen to.
2:13 till the end is just dopamine and pure unfiltered happiness explosion i deeply needed since COVID porter thank you porter thank you porter thank you porter thank you EDIT: *You gotta hold on, i'll tell you about it again. I GOT A BRAND NEW FEELING IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD*
2019 100 gecs: Ima go and throw my phone into the lake, yeah 2024 Porter Robinson: I'm gonna throw my phone into the sea 2029: we all throw our phones into the ocean?
I don't know if you'll ever see this but your music is getting me and my boyfriend through the most turbulent time of our lives. I'll always remember this album as the one that I came back to when I could barely take the pressure anymore. It means more than you can know. Thank you Porter Robinson. ♥
Hey, this is pretty good. I didn't think I was going to gel much with this one based on the preview, and while I dont see it being an all-timer for me, it's a pretty fun song! I think I "get" it, in terms of lyrics, seeing some of the discussion and "hype cycle" around this and previous album releases. I think SMILE! :D is proving to have some pretty interesting directions for Porter to explore. Cool stuff!
Sometimes i feel like i am also just like him doing whatever i want to do …. His music has the feeling that that depicts slight warmness of hope in during you downtime feeling but not sad …just like the feeling of a golden hour.
I’m honestly so here for this version of Porter. Nurture was an emotional journey-this album sounds like it’s going to be something that inspires us ☺️❤️
I'm still not over the Nurture era of Porter, first it takes him so long to release another album and now I'm thinking "Stop! It's too fast wait for me!" 😭
I'm genuinely loving every bit of this era tbh, its great! The little chiptune bits in this song remind me a lot of Thank You, My Twilight by The Pillows.

This is porters OP story arc he went through his character development with nurture and now he's unstoppable
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I threw my phone into the sea
Simple human being
Wouldn't know how to brush my teeth
Without asking my team
Living in the afterglow of everything you feel
But, baby, I'm a short-lived joke
As soulless as I seem
[Chorus]
And I'm everything you talk about
Why should you keep letting yourself be let down?
If I'm everything you talk about
I'm in the mirror, baby, let it all out
Knock yourself out
Knock yourself out
[Verse 2]
Don't know my schedule on the fifth
Bitch, I'm Taylor Swift
Got a hundred million on my wrist
Physically sick
Crying at the airport
"I'm sorry, can I get a pic?"
Telling me a sad story
Another reason not to quit
[Chorus]
And I'm everything you talk about
Why should you keep letting yourself be let down?
If I'm еverything you talk about
I'm in the mirror, baby, let it all out
Knock yoursеlf out
[Post-Chorus]
(Four, three, two, one)
[Verse 3]
I wear a big smile, got a drink in my hand
I got a face tattoo, I'm not a regular man
You gotta hold on, I'll tell you 'bout it again
I got a brand new feeling in the back of my head
I wear a big smile, got a drink in my hand
I drive a new Bugatti, not a Mercedes Benz
You gotta hold on, I'll tell you 'bout it again
I got a brand new feeling in the back of my head
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
who let you drop this without the warning of falling in love. i am now obsessed.

God. Really love Porter's angle on Pop music and where it can go. Super excited for the whole album!!
So super fast first impression is that this is a self-deprecating song telling his fan-base not to look up to him too much, cuz he's got his own issues he's dealing with. But if we're able to connect with him and his music, maybe we should take some time to think about why and use that as a way help ourselves.
Yes, I think he's also saying he's not actually very different from the viewer: "If I'm everything you talk about, I'm in the mirror baby let it all out". We think similar things when looking in the mirror in the morning, so spend some time to gas your own self up.
If you want one of Porter's top qualities: throw your phone in the sea and be passionate about that crazy idea in the back of your head as if no one is watching... Smile :D
I had a similar impression. Like simultaneously being self-deprecating and SUPER ironically overconfident. I kinda felt that contrast in areas like “got 100 million on my wrist, physically sick”. Like this big flexer persona is something that’s being put on even though it makes you feel fucking dead inside.
I could be overcooking it idk I’m super tired
I love seeing the evolution of Porter Robinson and how each one is so reflective of the state of his life. It feels really honest, but fun. //// you're voices timber + the fun beatssss really be pulling me out of a hard time in life 🙈💛 LOVE YA PORTER I DONT WANNA DIE EITHER
i know it s been 3 months and maybe you don t read the comments anymore but i was rlly depressed for a long time and u randomly put a smile on my face! Im 20 yrs and i ve been listening to you since i was 12!
That’s 8 yrs ago, when shelter came out. I’m the same age and been listening since shelter era as well 😊
Loving the beep boops in the intro! Reminds me of the intro in Pillows’ “Thank you, my twilight”
telling my kids this is taylor swift
Porter you have no idea how wildly excited we are for this new album
Yoooo it's distantstar!
Hi distantstar!!!!!
Give album me give hear album me hear album give me hear album give me NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
hi distantstar
Distantstar goat 🐐
I'm so thankful for him and his music.. i'm having a really bad few months, feeling like i hit rock bottom again but his music keeps me company down in my dark hole. Makes me want to stay alive just to see if it gets better someday, thank you Porter :)
Keep going, we all go through difficult things, just remember that.
Im loving the presence of Porter's natural voice!
Something Comforting really made me associate his natural vocals with really making contact with his natural self and feelings.
So of course this era of "just" his vocals reads very clearly.
i suddenly feel the vibe of "mother" in this track
Strangely, I felt the same.
I got the intro of "Thank you, my twilight" by the pillows as it started
I immediately thought the same thing! The intro gave me The Pillows vibes right away.
Yeah me too. goosebumps for sure
HOW
i love the fun this has in contrast to the serious, emotional nature of worlds and nurture. its a strange switch but its awesome

didn't really like this song when it first premiered but it started growing on me, now it's one of my favorite songs from april
"If I'm everything you talk about
I'm in the mirror, baby, let it all out" such a good line, projection in internet culture is so prevalent.
Anime Boi, Porter Swift, DDR Kid-the legend goes by many names
Porter in his weirdcore arc and I'm here for it fr ❤
What a departure from ‘Worlds’ and ‘Nurture’ this is!
I can't believe the same person made this and Sea of Voices lmao. Just proves what a talent he is
been here since Spitfire lol def a departure with every album
This new era of porter is coming during a hard time in my life and could not be more excited to have something uplift me when I need a break from society and other songs I listen to.
I can't wait to go to your world tour, this song is so inspiring. The shot at the ballons was such a power move and it was cute seeing his team cheer!
2:13 till the end is just dopamine and pure unfiltered happiness explosion i deeply needed since COVID porter thank you porter thank you porter thank you porter thank you
EDIT: *You gotta hold on, i'll tell you about it again. I GOT A BRAND NEW FEELING IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD*
I completely agree!! 2:13 onwards is such a freaking dopamine hit I didn’t know I needed!!!
@@SubScoutRIghtt?? The chorus, the visual with all that confetti smoke bomb just chef kiss!!
You have been nurtured, now you must SMILE! :D
Just got it, thanks!!!!
2019 100 gecs: Ima go and throw my phone into the lake, yeah
2024 Porter Robinson: I'm gonna throw my phone into the sea
2029: we all throw our phones into the ocean?
This song was his 2024 opener. Confetti on the drop was hard!
the mouse clicks at 0:46 were an insanely good detail added IMO
HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!!
Holy shit
I don’t see it!
@@The_Ride_Guy theyre subtle under the rest of the mix, turn up the volume a bit and just listen carefully!
They're more like keyboard clacks, but that is a great spot haha
I hit a tree while walking on the street and listening to this song. I literally knocked myself out. Thank you.
youre welcome :D
これは俄然アルバム楽しみになる神曲や
The melody at the start reminds me a tiny bit of the one at the beginning of The Pillows - Thank you, my twilight
朝から元気貰える☺️
ドロップサイコーです🎉🔥🔥
日本、しかも福岡に来てくれて本当にありがとう...
必ずライブ行くよ🔥
本当に7月が楽しみで仕方がない

Fully here for Porter Robinson going full Owl City-core
I don't know if you'll ever see this but your music is getting me and my boyfriend through the most turbulent time of our lives. I'll always remember this album as the one that I came back to when I could barely take the pressure anymore. It means more than you can know. Thank you Porter Robinson. ♥
ok
that bits reminds me of Thank you my twilight by the pillows
THATS WHY I THOIGHT IT SOUNDED FAMILIAR
DUDE YEAH SIMILAR KINDA SOUND XDDD
I'm pretty sure its exactly from that song. Good reference
It is a big reference no doubt
YES I THOUGHT THAT TOOOOO WE LOVE TO SEE IT
Hey, this is pretty good. I didn't think I was going to gel much with this one based on the preview, and while I dont see it being an all-timer for me, it's a pretty fun song! I think I "get" it, in terms of lyrics, seeing some of the discussion and "hype cycle" around this and previous album releases. I think SMILE! :D is proving to have some pretty interesting directions for Porter to explore. Cool stuff!
Absolutely love these tracks and the messaging. Can't wait for the full album to drop.
Sometimes i feel like i am also just like him doing whatever i want to do …. His music has the feeling that that depicts slight warmness of hope in during you downtime feeling but not sad …just like the feeling of a golden hour.
This is my favorite Porter Robinson song now😂 So exited for the album to be released ❤
I’m honestly so here for this version of Porter. Nurture was an emotional journey-this album sounds like it’s going to be something that inspires us ☺️❤️
I'm still not over the Nurture era of Porter, first it takes him so long to release another album and now I'm thinking "Stop! It's too fast wait for me!" 😭
im glad im alive so i can experience this evolution of porter
I'm genuinely loving every bit of this era tbh, its great! The little chiptune bits in this song remind me a lot of Thank You, My Twilight by The Pillows.
2024 porter is awesome, brought some light to my year fr
0:49 this specific part feels like Owl City sooo much it’s a vibe
Fr, i felt that too
another classic, such a fun and free-ing type of song. i feel like this new record is gonna be something we all need rn!
i love it when he Porter Robinsoning all over the place
Big Fooly Cooly "Thank you, my twilight" intro vibes
WHEN I HEARD IT I THOUGHT THE EXACT SAME THING !!
DUDE YES @@brycep49
This is a certified hood classic.
Right from the melody, you can see how happy the song is, he brought a lot of joy into it😊
got recommended this by some twitter friends this is PEAK keep it up Porter
These singles make me excited that this next album is gonna be an absolute bop!
It’s giving Owl City and I’m here for it
Honestly this one had to grow on me, I wasn't into it at first but especially after the concert I really love it now!
가사하고 노래가 너무 맘에 들고 중간중간 8bit 멜로디도 좋다... ㅠㅠㅠ 흑흑
