[@whalesaph]

I hope everyone who's a fan of these boys gets to experience them in concert at least once. They always feel like they take place in a whole other world. I just sat here and cried remembering how happy I felt when I watched this live LOL (Also, their "Making of" parts of the shows are always a stand out no matter what.)

[@heyguysitsme.5560]

I haven't been able to yet, but I'm really hoping they'll come closer next year!

[@fantiscious]

I hope there's an AJR5 tour!

[@alexmixitall]

I have wanted to go this year since they came to Europe, the plan was to go to France, but I couldn't get tickets for the concert. I hope one day they'll come to Portugal.

[@Whitehawk_10]

Same I cried remembering the feelings I had at this moment is the concert

[@francesleones4973]

I hope they have a concert in the Philippines in the future!

[@kuricat16]

The fact that a baby crying fits the message of the song makes this that much better One of my favorite songs by far 🙏🙏

I saw it live. You really don’t know what it is until they add the last part. When everyone realises it’s weak it’s really amazing

[@TheSarahBackwards]

I remember being gobsmacked it was Weak and I didn't realize it till they did the baby crying part. I hope you get to see them live one day! It's truly an experience.

[@ActuallyBrandonYamamoto]

I remember this live and it took me a while to figure out what song it was! They honestly did such a good job of constructing their biggest hit without it being obviously Weak. Incredible performance gentlemen

[@mustbge0]

Yeah for sure, I could only tell which song it was when the trumpets came in.

[@Darth_Spyro]

I thought their biggest hit was either Way Less Sad or Bang...

[@andesite.]

​@@Darth_Spyro During 2020 it was but if you were looking at their older songs. Weak was one of their biggest hits yet.

that moment of realization i had when i realized which song was being built up to was probably one of my favorite moments of the entire damn concert (second only to the finale!!) when the melody comes in it needs no introduction, just jump right in and the audience follows suit, it's such a great feeling! by far the best concert ive ever been to 🥰🥰🥰

This is also my favorite part of their shows. Seeing the process behind their music is something I love

[@BDNDailyOfficial]

1/10 👎 Reason: A Absolute Flop.

[@Emma-fp3nu]

Tears are literally streaming down my face right now; this song means the absolute world to me. I discovered this song a couple of years ago when I wasn't going through a great time in my life, starting high school, going through a breakup, and struggling a lot with mental health. But I remember feeling alive when I listened to Weak, this flood of emotions through my numb heart that gave me hope and comfort. A few months ago, I was lucky enough to get to see AJR live in Brisbane, best experience of my life, but it was a whole other level to see Weak be played live. To be there I was taken back to that little girl those few years ago who was in such a dark place and couldn't see a reason to live, and yet continued to live and try despite being so weak, to preserve to see this song that means so much to me in person, to still be alive despite it all. I felt alive. Needless to say, it was incredibly difficult not to cry that night, but I can't thank AJR enough for their music. This one song that has gotten me through so much, I just, thank you

[@rheah7180]

I was at that show!! I was sitting right next to BananaBoy on the balcony 😂 That was one of the greatest nights of my life, experiencing the vibe of the show and the crowd was so incredibly uplifting and just incredible. I’m so glad this music could help you thru your trials and that you got to experience that show as well. Much love from a fellow Brisbanite

[@TOGCMelon]

Honestly I think my favourite part about watching AJR live is purely how fucking INTO it Jack gets when performing. Look at those moves! You can tell he loves it!

[@lionelanderson9570]

Their music just hits different.

[@danielvenancioduartecarval242]

For me, it's not a song about love, it's not a song about cheating, it's a song about loving yourself, and I love it

[@pumpking413]

God I absolutely adore AJR and the way they perform, cause it really does have the overwhelming artistic passion that a lot of artists had for their work back in the day, and more importantly, the very obvious love for their fanbase through the inclusion of their collective contribution to the show similarly to the way Queen used to do

[@HS_521]

2:40 I'm not gonna lie, I like this horn line way more than I should. AJR should make a song with horns this jazzy.

[@thategg9447]

I would like it too if they added those kind of horns. I would also like it if they added the badass like horns in their songs.

[@zmazebowl]

Way less sad is sort of like it

[@luciel.2232]

That moment when all the crowd realize that this is Weak is just incredible. With a few notes everybody understand what song it is after being so focus on the explanation. Such an amazing band and what a show!💯💯💯❤

[@braddasseymusic]

I love it when people do stuff like this. As a music, producer, myself, I love to see how things are put together and brought to life. I probably watched this video like 85 times now lol.

[@shutupfam4237]

I’ve always loved these “how we made” videos when it’s live it’s so nice to see

[@KaleDarville]

I love when they put it all together and the audience is singing the chorus... Just ... Wow.

[@ZacharytheAJRFAN15]

Thanks for everything AJR I appreciate all that you guys do pls keep going my favorite artist ever 🤍💜💙🧡💛 Edit: Btw the color of the hearts are the color each album represents 😊

[@rand9672]

I hope I'm not the only one who got chills at the end of the song when all of the extra voices got added in, some really awesome work was put into this version of the song

[@kilian4387]

What a way to start a song!

[@AlyssaCGiles]

this concert was the best one i’ve ever gone to. i promise you, it will be the best experience you have ever had in your life. they are such talented people, and they will blow you away by their amazing acts!!!!

[@tinyfoxyg5846]

The thing they don’t show in these videos is that (at the london performance at least) you can hardly hear AJR over the crowd belting out all the songs with all their heart, it’s incredible to be in a crowd surrounded by people who also love this artist and know the same songs as you. Best experience ever.

[@PROD5VE]

[@omiandneptr9222]

i love that they’ve done this for a couple of tours already, one of the bests parts. :)

[@DoMorrMusic]

That trumpet and cymbal line is one of my favorite parts that’s not the main track.

[@D0M04XX]

They did this at Glasgow and it was honestly the best thing ever to watch live. I hope they come back to Glasgow on their next tour because they are awesome and definitely know how to wow their fans!

[@ianmitchell5979]

Even if his singing was iffy, everyone's energy and effort here was through the roof! That's way more than what I can say for a lot of live performances.

[@acejoker1477]

I mean credit to Jack he has to jump around like an energetic child for multiple hours of straight it's inevitable that his voice would get tired and sound iffy but it still sounds pretty good even despite that

[@tastytwixthefirst]

It makes him so human. Relatable. It is honestly more beautiful for it.

[@twistedtoast3538]

Kind of matches the lyrics of the song

[@RelicQuadrangle]

This isn't a recording. Artists are going to lose their voices. It's common at concerts. Would you rather him lip sync? Not to mention he's dancing around and that already makes someone out of breath.

I just got Beats headphones for my birthday and this is the first thing I’m listening to with them on! This is awesome! Thanks AJR for being my first song and video to watch/listen to with my new headphones!

[@WasteMaster89]

You guys have been an inspiration to my life. I’m in high school and have been focusing on my strengths which help me create challenges for my weaknesses! IM WEAK, BUT WHATS WRONG WITH THAT! Is such an importance in this song; we’re all weak but we don’t need to focus on that but focus on the strengths of our selves but create goals to kick your weak points! Thank you, AJR, I’m fully looking forward to your future songs.

[@Ar_Moon]

I love seeing the behind the scenes! The joy that comes over me every time they get to that one part of the song that everyone knows that tides the whole thing together is just amazing! Seeing everyone’s reactions as they start to figure out what song it is! Amazing!

[@dexterkronos]

Saw them live in Brisbane, and man, I was scratching my head on how the baby fit into it. Once the song started playing in full, I got it! Brisbane Concert was literally the best thing that happened to me in several months - not counting my birthday. Hearing their songs live with two of my friends was something my heart didn't know it needed until right there and there. I hope that their next concert will be just as amazing, and will come back to Fortitude Valley Music Hall. ...actually no need to hope, it's AJR, they ALWAYS surprise us fans. Love your work, AJR, and please, get yourself something nice to eat as you work hard on your new passion project. Trust me, it'll help 💙

[@mustbge0]

I was at Brisbane too! and yeah, that was the most incredible day of my life so far. I couldn’t even tell which song it was until the horns but when I heard them my heart just filled with so many emotions, then hitting us with that transition into the song was just something else. After years of not being able to come to Australia, especially not being able to do neotheater due to COVID, I was so excited when they said they’d be coming here. I hope they come for the next album too, I’ll be getting tickets the second they come out.

[@yuapanda]

I'm so sad I missed the Melbourne show. Next time...

[@S0s0yy2]

this song got me into AJR 5 years ago and I'm so happy to see that they did this song on tour in this fashion. I hope to listen to AJR for the rest of my life. You guys might have some haters, but I'll always be a supporter.

I started listening to your song sometime in 2019 or 18 if I’m not mistaken. The first song I heard was bang on the television and I took my phone and downloaded just that one. Trust me I listened to it almost everyday when I downloaded it. After a while I forget about it. A year later I was obsessed with the same bang song and decided to check other songs out. Weak was the second on my playlist I had and loved from AJR. After that I started listening to some of your songs more often and after a while I started following on Instagram and trust me I’ve been obsessed since then. And guess what my love for AJR just grew bigger ❤ lots of love from 🇳🇬❤️
