Halsey - Lonely is the Muse | Vevo Official Live Performance

[@postpup]

Easily one of her best songs, if not THE best. What an incredible homage to Amy Lee - all while creating a strong, powerful image for themself. Halsey is one of the greats of our generation, and this record will absolutely stand the test of time.

[@condzg]

you go get that journalism degree. this was amazing to read

[@postpup]

@@condzg LMAO thanks!! If I ever had the time to really sit down and express my thoughts on every album I listen to, I'd totally start something up, but time is such a commodity anymore. Leaving little blurbs on KZbin videos is enough for now lol

[@condzg]

@ if you ever start come back and tell me !!! I’ll even help

[@Jmarsh1992]

I know she said Amy helped inspire this, but Life of the Spider sounds JUST like early Evanescence demos. It's wild. This, not so much.

[@alexandria_rae]

Favorite song off the album. But her top will always be anything from iichliwp, it’s my absolute favorite!

[@ailanflowers4768]

It’s crazy that this sounds even better than the studio version

[@Linnypie1]

Exactly what I was thinking, I wish I could get this version on spotify

[@ailanflowers4768]

@wynonareign It was sold as an exclusive for 24 hours along with the other vevo performances. If you didn’t get a chance to buy it, I think there are people who made google drives with the audio files on them that you can upload to Spotify from the local files on your phone. I saw people posting links to the audio files on Twitter and the Halsey subreddit, which you can download and put on your Spotify. People did the same for the other bonus tracks like Lessons, Afraid of the Dark, etc. I hope this helps!

[@muzikgod88]

So much emotion she puts into this version

[@evilangel1859]

All her songs she redoes with her voice are so much better than the original

[@no-hx6li]

I think I'm addicted to her voice lol it's perfect

[@youarecutoff375]

this is one of the best songs she’s ever made

[@bodybloodsoulanddivinity]

She's tapped in. I want her to create from this place more.

[@nunninkav]

that is INTENSE. Musically and lyrically intense. The more I hear it the more I'm convinced, this is her sound, this is her best song ever as far as being compelling and having gravity, this is not light fare, this is heavy.

[@bodybloodsoulanddivinity]

Heavy is a great description. The fact she can say the vulnerable things so powerfully is courageous. 100% her sound. More of this please @halsey

[@cerinashippey]

No seriously like she needs to release an album like THIS

[@nunninkav]

@cerinashippey I would love it. Her label may wonder WTF happened to our pop girl? She went Metal??

[@nunninkav]

@@bodybloodsoulanddivinity the lyrics really do hit with authentic emotion. The paradox of loving a narcissist who treats you as an apparatus when you are the one with "platinum status".

[@a.4963]

@@cerinashippey Her album If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power is pretty much that

[@yosineri5113]

The perspective of the Muse being an incredibly lonely position is genius. The most underrated artist

[@Actuallyalizard]

I saw it as The Muse is a Lonely person while also being that the emotion of being Lonely is the Muse for actions that you know might not be the best for you

[@deeleigh1626]

Oh I interpret it as her loneliness is her muse as it drives her attachment to toxicity and pain that translates into her art.

[@joshuaphonharath8294]

This song for me is Halsey identifying herself as a muse, always inspiring others with ideas and interactions and experiences. The saying lonely is the muse exists because muses always do so much for others while, in this context, they themselves are beings who are codependent on others to give them purpose. Love how the song examines this dynamic

[@elzawalkers]

@@Actuallyalizardthis is genuinely such an amazing interpretation of this song and now i’m looking at it so differently i love itt

[@Actuallyalizard]

@@elzawalkers thank you! It’s like, why would you mold yourself/change yourself so much just bc someone is giving you attention? Loneliness. Why would you continue to do it when you know that once they get what they want out of you (For her to be their muse), they will discard you? The fear/feeling Loneliness.

[@smittyave]

I have no one to talk to about this man this song is insane

[@moniki7013]

@@junedanieltamor9071 not really, this album is more a pop rock, only easier than lying is closer to this song, but i wish the whole album was :´)

[@Blitzbrie]

@@junedanieltamor9071 I love that album but that album doesn't have a single song that sounds like this. That was more industrial and experimental, this is very 2000s emo/alt/nu metal influenced. This is closer to something like Nightmare tonally, but much heavier.

[@junedanieltamor9071]

@ ya’aburnee sounds similar Edit: this was a joke

Hoping she adds it soon, she just released a download of this version to buy on her website

[@lesbiiianic]

this song was made for being heard live….i love the studio version but this is just on another level

[@nunninkav]

you get more dynamics of the band, from subdued, hazy dream of the verse to the frenzy and thrash of the chorus.

[@icanbreathe9161]

I wish the whole album was this rock themed 😢😭😭😭😭 it’s still a great album I would just love to see Halsey do a full entire rock album like this it’s SOOO good!!!!

“Thank you Halsey” we chant in unison

[@bodybloodsoulanddivinity]

[@SkylineTokyo73]

Perhaps I’m selfish for this but I really hope she releases an album rock,metal, alternative theme. I absolutely loved her work with on her last one! This song was absolutely full circle for me. A lot of musical memories flooded my mind as soon as heard this song. For me this song holds a lot of personal symbolism. Super grateful!

Her doing an early 2000s punk/rock album would do insane numbers. Her vocal range has always been incredible but at the end... The transition from screams to singing goes wildly hard.

[@relyn5544]

I was expecting for the original notes in the released version, but when the second chorus dropped with you singing the harmonies... I got goosebumps all over my body like that switch conveys such a different hidden meaning for the song... The released version is more vengeful, angry whilst this is gloomy, still angry but acquiescent as if a siren that has lost all hope singing and captivating souls for one last time. incredible

you can even say halsey was "fully alive". 😏

[@gibbiechirico5939]

Totally agree with this and I'm 37

[@jayhillxo]

her best song EASILY i’ve struggled with being alone a lot this year. this song came out right after my best friend of 11 years moved away, my best coworker friend quit, and with everything i’ve already been feeling this year climaxing when this song came out life was so intense. the sound of this song encapsulates the rage, pain and exhaustion i was feeling so spot on. i wish she would make more music that sounds like this

[@lexiwarren8229]

I love when she goes harder and more raw! She's so versatile and talented. Truly one of my all time favorite artists.

[@isaarkana8331]

It's been a month and I'm still not over this. The raw emotions. The vocals. Just soooo good

JESUS CHRIST AND ALL THAT IS HOLY. FUCK. This is aesthetically EVERYTHING, vocals are INSANITY, the cinematography is CRAZY WORK, the relaxation of such a chaotic song. I’ve loved this song since it came out but it’s solidified as my favorite Halsey song ever tied with easier than lying. Like THIS IS YOUR ELEMENT HALSEY!! This is your moment. These performances are EVERYTHING. I’m so proud of you 😭

[@shavedparmesanprosciuttoan4317]

Damn this moved to tears. Her voice and these lyrics are dripping with venom and sarcasm and I feel her anger and feeling of powerlessness to someone else’s vision of you. Always so impressed with Halsey

[@MsLelle98]

I love anything and everything she’s even made but she truly shines in this genre, I desperately need to her more screams into her songs

[@itsryderperry]

She has said so many times she doesn’t make music for the mainstream media, she makes stuff that comes from her soul and that the fans would love. I definitely feel like this genre is much more suited to her, especially the way she can pour her soul out so much more in these types of songs in my opinion. She could easily make an entire y2k, emo, punk metal album. It’s definitely something a lot of her fans (including me) has been waiting for and are dying for. She would also gain a whole new genre of fans as well, just like Demi did with holy fvck!

[@moon_design]

Could barely listen without feeling myself tear up... This song is just so devastating and raw and their vocals make it even more so... Halsey you're so amazing.

Halsey is just so versatile... she can do hip-hop r&b, chamber pop, country, and goth rock. She is a true chameleon of modern day music. When I look at Halsey... I see ingredients of Billy Eilish, Pink, Kelis, Hope Sandoval, Maggie Linderman, Nelly Furtado, and Jess Glynne all rolled into something so marvelous and yet so different from anything you've heard so far by any artist.
