It Started With Hey - Madds Buckley Full EP

[@olixqs._]

Do you love me?.. you can lie..~” THAT BROKE ME INTO MILLIONS OF LITTLE PIECES.

[@peristeronic5520]

2024 anyone? Coming back cause I still love this album!

[@EYECEOFFICIAL33]

SO REAL❤

[@herebyaccident5174]

Nothing has ever summed up my feelings about love and relationships as much as At My Back. Seriously it vocalized something i felt for years and will now be the song at my future wedding

[@dansenkat]

not to be dramatic but "the letter" makes me wanna jump off a cliff (in a good way!! it's gorgeous!! i'm typing this through my tears!!)

[@kristagwynn4079]

just commenting so you can come back and feel that way again because im here and alive, making it everyones problem

[@gay1916]

What color is pineapple+grape

[@alisonyroses]

"Hold Me Close" is a GEM!!

[@sleepybatteriezzz]

I love every song here but Hey Stranger and Hold Me Close have got to be my favorites. Hearing the lyrics, "Lover dearest, lover mine. How I've loved you, all this time." makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I really just adore everything about this.

[@myalea3792]

Same

[@kristopherwernicki1587]

i agree, I love both of those songs but 'At my back' fits me personally on so many levels

[@jacksondang8408]

I know some of these are based off of fanfictions but can we have a list of what they are? I want to go read them and then come back to enjoy this music even more (if that's even possible)!

[@jacksondang8408]

@@dansenkat thank you!!!

[@faithaquino7327]

the hoping on another life is based on a BokuAka fanfic "In another life"

[@jacksondang8408]

@@faithaquino7327 thank you!

[@archani2314]

Having Halloween isn't based of a fic but an anime! It's called Banana Fish (if you are going to watch it their are alot of tw and you will be needing a lot of tissue 😭🖐️)

[@emtb5810]

I just saw the comment about hating Halloween oops I haven't seen banana fish yet so that's that

[@joulskafilms8815]

I can’t decide whether this EP is a relationship that has a triumphant beginning and a bittersweet departure or a collection of separate love stories Either way I love this ep

[@theweirdowhodoesstuff2.079]

Do you want to hear that they are all based off on fanfics and anime lmao

[@YeetYootNeetNoot]

I never thought of it being multiple! Either way, I wouldn't call the ending bittersweet, lmao. It's heart-wrenching, though understandable that the recipient of Hey Stranger (as I see the lore) needed space.

[@faith4858]

omg I just cried for 22 minutes and 23 second straight thats crazy

[@justace_x]

14:00 The more I listen, the more details I catch and start to cry even harder

[@chuusama2217]

At My Back makes me feel fuzzy❤

[@megurubeechirara8744]

Hi! I just want to say that your song are so much deserving to be heard and recognize. Because of you, I'm being frustrated 'cause your songs are so good! And I'd promise to myself that I would do everything to discover persons talent and encourage them to continue. So thankyou! I'm not gonna realize this if I didn't have heard your song! Keep your head held high! 🤍❤

[@analenic2488]

Bro the way she actually made full versions,, absolutely iconic It must've taken so much effort and they're all so GOOD istg she deserves way more recognition

[@xXSquidGirlXx]

I think the most gorgeous thing about this EP is that, despite being a compilation of songs inspired by fanfictions and ships, it tells a story within its own. The light and warm-hearted beginning and how it slowly transpires into heartache and bittersweet memories is so emotional, and since there's some liberty to how this story ends, it allows the person listening to determine the fate of what drove this couple apart. Pair it with characters that mean something to you and you've got yourself a sob fest! (in a good way haha) I know for sure a few songs on here have given me some ideas for me to write and draw (I've been listening to "The Letter" non-stop and making myself tear up. It got to the point that I felt like I had no other choice other than to sketch a small drawing based on it). You did such a wonderful job with this and I want to thank you for making something so emotional and inspiring!!

[@aqmarjabeen9255]

My god every single song is such a masterpiece. At my back absolutely makes me wanna jump up and down and just sing it to my non existent crush to ask them out or something.it’s just so cute >.< But then I get crushed by the next few songs , hold me close is so beautiful and hoping on another life story puts me in so much pain lined with hope 😭 The letter felt like an interlude until I was destroyed by the next two songs. Also hating Halloween ; ^ ; asheiji deserved so much more than they got and I will stand by that till the day I die. This was so good , the EP turned out great 😭😭

[@mikkime8974]

The Letter and Hating Halloween give me Banana Fish vibes... I'm not crying, you are.

[@blackfalconotaku4392]

Hating Halloween was written based off of banana fish so yes.

[@TheFloofyBoi]

Listened to this full EP a few times through now, more times than I've listened to artists' albums/EPs I've been a fan of years, this is exactly my type of music and is so well done

[@jodiewinsper2627]

The quality of this video is beautiful the lyrics are there and the songs when they start and your voice is beautiful it's easy to see your going to have a bright future ahead of you ☀️🌜😁

[@millipanda2621]

NOT EVEN A MINUTE IN AND IM ALREADY IN LOVE WITH THIS

[@jacintamadridnoguer7759]

I just wanna say I listen to this album in loop on Spotify and its the same feeling I got when i felt eveything and anything when i was younger, and this is the first thing in a very long time to make me feel like that. To feel like light, to feel like reading at 3 am under the covers, and to feel the same way as u watch sunsets very far away. Like Hope

[@Royce_H]

It Started With Hey sounds like a good book title. AND I LOVE THIS SM.

[@luisakgebara]

Its been a month since the ep came out, its been a month since ive been listening to this ep AT LEAST 5 times a day

[@christinebourgeois23]

Hold Me Close is my favorite! I love it so much!!!

[@erinsearles5562]

The fact that fall weather is hitting and hating Halloween is here, is just perfect

[@myalea3792]

The way all the songs link in with each other is amazing

[@YeetYootNeetNoot]

They deserved better ;-;

[@SleepingAves]

“Hoping on another life” sounds like a person singing about their lover that passed away and if I think about it like that it makes me want to cry so hard 😭

[@christinesalazar9001]

This deserves to blow up🤧💕

[@crystalstorm9]

At my back is me and one of my best friends

[@AGiraffePerson]

Who else just breaks down and cries every time they play these songs? 🥲

[@YeetYootNeetNoot]

Your strawberry Gfluid Kirishima pfp has cured me, lmao.

[@ellieroot1167]

Screaming crying falling over this is so good I have listened to it like a thousand times and I cry each time

[@nanabanana5023]

Im not being dramatic i swear but this is the best thing to ever exist

[@frogs2822]

Hating Halloween made me think of ash and made me cry so hard

[@allieypaige]

I know right!! ❤

[@percivalderolo6195]

Love the album! Shared some of the songs with my partner , gonna add them to our collab playlist

[@SazKei]

I'm loving these!!! Also, "At My Back" sounds super TsukiHina to me, and I dig it XD

[@thegamegaby]

This is so beautiful

[@gryphonelliott4017]

I'm about four hours into knowing you exist, and my god. Absolutely love your writing, tone, everything's golden.

[@albedoenthusiast602]

a year later and its still my favorite album of all time. i could listen to these until i died and id never ever get sick of them, thank you for making this

[@YeetYootNeetNoot]

I could imagine people in a large ballroom slow-dancing to The Letter oh, the irony.

[@trinilagos5957]

Right now I'm crying, this is so beautiful, it's amazing how talented you are, I can't wait to see you at the top :'D

[@giulianaromani1919]

i love it!!!!! you're super super talented

[@Joshkaposh]

Is there anyway you’d be able to upload all these separately? I just want to shuffle them all in a KZbin playlist haha :) really amazing ep though!! You’re so extremely talented and I’m happier ever day from finding you on TikTok ^^

[@MaddsBuckley]

The distributor I use actually uploads each song separately! If you search my name and the song title they should show up! : )

Soo good!!!! ❤❤❤

🎶hold me close for just a little longer I do not want this night to be over If you stay til morning I’ll be fine But I’d rather keep you by my side🎶

[@YeetYootNeetNoot]

These and Sunset on Summerville's album could be fandoms in themselves. Anyone wanna help me make a shiz ton of fanfictions about them and loop Ao3 into them?

[@exxwhy1645]

hoping on another life made me cry so badly it brought me so much nostalgia from my haikyu fic and gave me so many memories of the fanfic itself.

[@mvinskus5906]

Is “Hold Me Close” also inspired by a fic or anime? I couldn’t find any info on it, but I know Madds talked about the song inspirations live on the night the EP released? I just missed the part for that song.

[@lulizluvie]

she said in a tiktok comment that hold me close was inspired by fanart of suzaku and lelouch from the anime code geass

[@madelynnfox]

I CANT STOP LISTENING

[@acetanaka892]

It’s so amazing! I love it so much 💙

[@foldingcomet]

I like at my back ❤❤

[@PhoenixFlight8D]

Even if you havnt read the fanfics or know the pairings, you can still piece together a story of love and loss and recovery

[@ZelphelChronicalsdijock36]

So excited! Been waiting for this!🤗 Congratulations!!!🥳🥳

[@egoist3023]

what bokuaka fanfic is this inspired by? (if all the songs are inspired, i could be mistaken)

[@nicouryx]

It's inspired by in another life

[@lucero5082]

im sure “hey stranger” is a bokuaka story. im not sure about the next two but “the letter” is by the story “the galaxy is endless” which is an angst kuroken story. “hoping on another life” is “in another life” a bokuaka story. and “hating halloween” is by “banana fish” which is a sad anime.

[@egoist3023]

[@keowns7921]

Does this remind anyone else of Banana Fish?? Especially the last song

[@sleepybatteriezzz]

The last song actually is inspired by Banana Fish! Some of the others are inspired by Haikyuu fics.

[@bonesrae2224]

Yes! Thought these songs were inspired by Banana fish, but love them none the less

[@emirikyuu7308]

The letter sounds like the music for a really fucking sad pixar short ;;

Pls tell me what fanfics there inspierd by also sorry for spelling (ps love this so much!!!!!)

am I the only one who thinks of the anime banana fish? that was the first thing that came to mind and Idky

[@bonesrae2224]

Yes I did too! Hating Halloween definitely, and seeing the letter made me think this was about Banana fish
