  • Altgang! What is good, in this video we breakdown NF I Miss The Days. What a crazy nostalgic vibe, I love how different this feels to a lot of the tracks we've listened too, it's a super nice palette cleanser from the hardcore rap stuff we're used to.

    Him saying he was acting was related to being happy. He's saying that he wants to feel legitimate happiness without having to act like he's happy in front of the world.

    This has to be my top NF song because it can be interpreted in many ways. You can listen to it and reminice in the point of view of NF where he just wants to be away from the problems where adults face. But at the same time from a different perspective, it can be interpreted as a happy song where you can just get lost for awhile to reminice your happy innocent days of yourself. Hands down in my opinion his best song he has made. The chorus and the choir really elevates for you to reminice your younger self or what the song is trying to tell you.

    @mikosdanes 3 года назад +15

    The line is take me back when I was happy but I wasn't acting. When you suffer from depression, you realize quickly that people don't want to be around sadness so you learn how to adapt and pretend to be happy even though you're dying inside. It's the idea of that drug commercial where someone who is depressed carries around a paper plate with a smiley face on it so they can put that in front of their face while in public situations. Loved you reaction by the way

      @@beyji1plays839 Trauma is among my top five, if not #1. I never suffered the "parental" abuse that Nate has, but there's still a ton of trauma from my growing-up years. I think we all have that somewhere, somehow, in our past. I'm 64 yo and NF was the first rap artist I ever listened to. That was about a year ago, and now there are several rappers I listen to on a regular basis. But NF....he's my favorite. I can, literally, listen to his albums on Loop for hours at a time! He's very therapeutic for me. Blessings to you from Idaho, USA...💛

    I love this song like a lot. I know I say that to like all of NF’s songs, but this one has something special to me, cuz it’s hype, and is sad, and it’s truthful, while feeling out of reach of what I feel like I can do, though I know I could do it (that’s a terrible explanation). The song is masterfully composed and put into a disgustingly awesome beat.

    @6:30 I think we can "rediscover" those parts of us from our past, but "reincorporating" them back into our older selves is whole different story. I guess that's why we have words like "nostalgia" in the English language. It's too bad we haven't figured out how to become our naive younger selves again. I suppose Big Pharma will come up with a pill for that sometime! I'd never dare take it, though....the side-effects could be catastrophic!! Great reaction...AGAIN. I love your breakdowns, AltSpace.

    I’m going to assume Nate is like a lot of us who others consider “type A” personalities....introspects...perfectionists with OCD.....people who have almost impossibly high standards about everything they do in life....from the way they breathe, to the way they sleep. What it does is make it difficult for others to accept those parts of us when we are focused on whatever our current focus is on. And for us....it makes it difficult to NOT feel like an imposter. We at times act....or perform.....in every relationship or interaction we have with others because it’s the only way to have common ground. Unless you are around other type A’s.....and in that case, you are talking total chaos 🤣
