Lyrics:
It’s come to my attention
That I don’t show enough
Of what I think
It’s only when I drink I open up
But I promise that I love you
Even with that hairdo
I’m sorry I made fun of it
It’s not your fault it looks like shit (like shit)
I have never tolerated someone for so long
I’ve never laughed so much
I haven’t written a sad song
There’s no one else I’d rather fall asleep with
And dream with
You’re my best friend in the world
When we’re ninety eight and ninety nine (ninety nine)
Tumbling down the stairs
You’ll barely catch me in time (tumbling down)
We’ll argue about what to watch on TV
Finally pick a movie then we’ll fall asleep (asleep)
We’ll still be a little bit strange
Some things never change
It’s funny cause you drive me half insane
A universe without you would thoroughly mundane
There’s no one else I’d rather fall in love with
And that is my best friend in the world
You’re my best friend in the world

this is the beginning of the new golden age of jazz

[@Apple-mm9ml]

Omg if this generation’s jazz is like that ima go crazy of how good it is

[@karlbenedictperez8655]

laufey is helping jazz rise again. love it

[@юджинмузыкович]

thats real real jazz! i like it!

[@michaelsanchez347]

Most don't know it but we're actually in a golden age of jazz right now. There's so much good music it's crazy but if this helps get it into the mainstream that would be cool

[@karlbenedictperez8655]

@@michaelsanchez347 jacob collier's old stuff were jazz. he went pop in his latest album (maybe he was just experimenting) but in his future album snippets, i heard some jazzy sounds so it's good to see him play jazz again. bruno mars and anderson paak's "leave the door open" is very jazzy (based on my music theory analysis and the sound, though i hear r'n'b, i consider it jazz) and that song is mainstream.

This sibling bond is so unreal and adorable! Can't imagine how it feels like to bond with my siblings like this. We used to hit each other with chairs back in the day 🤣

[@gracie99999]

just be bond forget about it

[@awilli182]

It's strange... Both in media and in real life, sibling are usually depicted as always trying to kill each other only to get along when trying to avoid getting in trouble with thier parents. But whenever there are siblings out there that act like BFFs....it's weird. Why can't they all be friends?

[@andypianoman]

Same here me and my brother threatened each other many time with real knives as kids. But now that we are both 28 we are inseparable. We are twins BTW so we had many reasons to hate each other besides being siblings (constantly being compared to each other lol).

[@HerEvilTwin]

Even more so when you have an identical twin

[@finnibugz]

Sister and I have a big age gap so it's really hard for us to find things to agree on.

[@AugnierCalyenin]

Laufey does the singing and Junia does the music videos, she creates the romantic visual world in the videos and so much more than that. So both sisters are insanely talented in what they do and they combine their talents to give us the absolute best performances and entertainment in music. The best identical twins ever

[@alicewatkinson2981]

Her music sounds like falling in love, Chet is smiling down from heaven!

Just discovered her a few days ago, been playing her covers and originals on repeat. I'm so glad I got to be here for the premiere of the official video version of this beautiful song Edit: The group harmonising "Like shit" is one of the best parts of this song :)

[@VanessaHolloway0104]

Omg me too! Her songs are on repeat everyday hehe ❤️

[@carabuse7042]

I feel like twin relationships have to be one of the best, most fun, type of relationships in the world. Makes me so jealous

[@JoeTheKiddo]

the way she says thorougly mundane at 2:16 is just breathtaking

[@jesusRamirez-xv7xp]

True love songs dont have to be about a romantic relationship. I long for more songs about brother friend sister and motherly love. Beautiful song and beautiful relationship you two sisters have. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with us.

[@dewniper]

My best friend sent me this today. I love them so much, they’re one of the reasons I’m alive and I couldn’t make it without them. Thank you for existing and being there Chevy

[@Mafata-potato]

A special person for me wrote a part of this song in a notebook, which made me curious to listen to it, when I saw the lyrics and listened to it, I was so pleased that I wrote this to remember this day and I really thank you for dedicating it Now from now on every time I hear this song it will be like seeing you, I love you little brother.

[@f52_yeevy]

Your music is just so... pleasant. All the elements are so well put together like the variants of coffee beans in a refined blend. It makes me travel to the streets of NYC, everything moving in slow motion, the air permeated by your voice while I stand in a present moment between the two seconds of past and future living and enjoying everything around me. Thank you.

[@Nicole-xw4fx]

man your voice is like such a warm hug this is so amazing

[@nicolazzmusik]

This is a beautiful revival of old vibed music

[@kielijakantele]

Beautiful and clever lyrics! The melody and harmonies are set to be a jazz standard... I expect this song and all her other originals (like her Valentine's song, for example) to be covered by numerous KZbinrs who have the good taste to try their hand at her amazing music.

[@henkdevries2002]

Yes I was really surprised at how good all these songs are when I first found this channel, as you said this could have been a jazz standard. It's quite similar to Ain't Misbehavin' in terms of chord progression. Very nice!.

[@felipeputney]

It left me with a huge, indelible smile, followed by a sense of peace and comfort that lingers every time I listen to this song 💛

[@luvis9481]
