I can believe the man sampled from megalovania at 4:45 Which is funny, for his early career also contained megalovania remixes. Can't help but notice he's talking so much about wanting to ride fame, and there is no pinnacle to trying to ride fame then megalovania in the meme remix time.

[@valentinaaugustina]

yeah but he’s our rock n roll nerd

[@TaxyMaxy]

alright I've been kinda avoiding it but I feel these songs are connected to Chonny feelings. This is a direct one to me y'know. This song can be talking about how Chonny(or anyone) can't relate to some song writers who can write deep meanings. But the lyric "you either got it or you don't" is kinda true. And I think chonny got it. Even if songs don't have deeper meanings, they can be wonderful anyway. But I believe Chonny has deep songs even if he doesn't believe so. Art is always subjective either way. The reason I bring up "all stars are in bars" is since it fits into this theme. And the direct connection of disliking pubs when the music is too loud. Anyways I'll stop being a little analysis nerd and enjoy the ride

oh wow. this is the first song i'm hearing in the ego series and something about this is speaking directly to me. nearly every single word of every lyric is something i've experienced. feeling like you need to have bad things happen to you to make art, or to be taken seriously with your art - not being content with the ordinary, yearning to be something more, needing to be recognized for how unordinary you've made yourself - feeling like everything you make has to have some sort of meaning or commentary or reason to be besides just _wanting it to be_ - is apparently a much more universal feeling than i thought. this was seven minutes but felt like two and an eternity in the best possible way. thank you.
