I have a tendency to forget just how much raw power there's inside this tiny woman

Tiny 😂

And if my child needed protection, from "toot toot"-SOMEONE like that man.. Hayley apologized on her IG for not cursing on BBC lmao. I LOVEEE ITTT

[@rachelsamuels8569]

[@dontmintme]

What actually happened between them?

[@jmile001]

The pandemic robbed us of so many live performances from BOTH her albums, it's so frustrating. I hope she still makes plans to perform these songs live. HAYLEY PLEASE! :(

[@seanfrank32]

Definitely. She was literally talking about touring in Feb 2020. And her masterpiece will never get the recognition it deserves.

[@rowansix7158]

Her vocals are still mixed too low in comparison to everything else. She's one of the cleanest and strongest technical vocalists and this just doesn't do her justice. Get it together BBC Radio 1!

[@kombe971]

Rowan Six she’s just not singing high notes

[@connorbenson1907]

Kombe i think that Rowan was speaking in reference to the volume and not the pitch

[@mundaneamazing]

Lo-Fi is what the kids want.

[@rowansix7158]

@@kombe971 it's the volume of her mic in comparison to everything else. You raise your mics volume to pick up more sound, especially when you're singing lower notes or in a lower register.

[@cheyennemoseley319]

Her voice taking a break from high notes. That’s right.

[@renzodangelo845]

I just love to see how she changed, she sounds a lot heavier now, she was already one of the greatest but i think that now she´s really getting to another level of awarness and emotional expresion, just loved it!

[@itsthetraumaforme1456]

The word “simmer” can’t describe the emotional vibe of this song. It’s a simmer definitely, but more of a slow burn, that amounts to no huge explosion. The song keeps the same emotional level, but Hayley takes it to another level with her emoting and sheer vocal technique. This is an anomaly of a song, and it’s so beautiful, sad, potent, and absolutely burning. I can’t simmer down, Hayley. You won’t let me!

[@MrDarren690]

Great eye. Ears? Anyway, yeah, I feel like the constant remarks about simmering are a self-command. She's not simmering; she has to _tell_ herself to simmer down.

[@TerraMarie34]

Yasso - Yup Hayley said it herself. She says she doesn’t do much in terms of working out and stuff. She said it’s just a healthy vegan diet and taking care of herself. I don’t think she wears much makeup though unless it’s performing. She post herself without makeup all the time and she looks virtually the same as she does in this video. She’s flawless without it too.

[@funkycoldmedina29]

Genetics is probably all it is

i guess the audio is a little better, but seriously what is up with your mixing?? This wasn't the first time the microphone wasn't loud enough

it's crazy how similarly our lives have been. I'm the same age, have have been struggling with depression, pain and other sh*t Paramore's music saved my life and has been always been my favorite band. The right words every damn time. Hayley's vocals and lyrics all these years. Now I see her and feel like we've grown together somehow. It may sound crazy by I can't explain how identified an passionate I feel about her. I'm so happy she gets to do her own music. I just hope they don't pull another mcr hiatus.
