lauv's style is so dreamy, like those pastel colorful nails, his hair, his clothes, even his voice is dreamy!!!

[@kagss366]

One of the things that I love about Lauv is that he didn't just say like "I'm depressed" he took time to look into it and find out if he was sad or depressed. So many people in particular my generation (gen z) seem to throw around the word like it's nothing. You might be sad and stuff but most people aren't depressed of they say they are. Some people will say that they are depressed or have anxiety just to be cool. Like bruh.... it ain't cool it's a serious disease and illness that people sometimes spend their life trying to beat....

PREACH

[@calvinmiller2800]

Lauv giving Owl City the love he deserves for all his music not just Fireflies makes me so happy

[@theEXOaudio]

same I'm so happy

[@andresmolina8913]

Lauv is the next big thing in music. His lyrics and melodies are so sincere and emotional. Excited for more music!

[@DaanyAC]

Lauv is so introspective. He is a phenomenal & genuine artist

[@Cam4peaceseeker]

I love the way you interact with your guest. You bring out so much from your interview. Keep up the great work.

[@siupunk9371]

When Lauv spoke of Owl City, Nevershoutnever and Myspace, I love him even more because that's basically me in that era

[@Robdeltonie]

I wasn't around for Owl City during his MySpace days, but I think Lauv really hit it on the head with what Owl City is about!

[@MarloAlvarez7]

Love me some Lauv music. Dude is a cutie...He can get it.

[@glendinamingram]

Both Of Y'all AYYYYYOOOO PAUSE

[@tenordrummer101]

Lauv is something else, I love him so so much

[@manontubbiolo1576]

Love him you need to get ruel on here. X love your interviews u always ask the most interesting questions

[@mashitup7713]

yes ruel!

[@manontubbiolo1576]

@@mashitup7713 ahh hes just amazing and soooo talented ahha

[@honestlynicole1493]

margot tubbiolo definitely! zach knows how to ask questions and start deep conversations and itd be interesting to see what ruel says plus i love him sm haha

[@mashitup7713]

I really love how open he was while explaining his feelings and the meaning behind his songs wow

[@theEXOaudio]

if you know owl city that much you'll find a lot of traces of his production style to his music especially in Lauv's early days. being both a Owl City fan and Lauv fan, it makes me so happy that he's inspired by Adam.

[@asppl]

Zach- Your interviews are my favorite! Your questions are so insightful and I love how you try to make your best feel really comfortable. It clearly works bc I feel like your energy is just like talking to an old friend. Its great seeing interviews where artists are actually humanized instead of idolized. Thanks for the great content

[@safichii]

I actually can’t believe how quickly I am now such a fan of Lauv and I haven’t even heard that many songs yet, jeez he’s such a deep, positive advocate for mental health how does one not love this dude! Another great interview from Zach 😎👌

[@FelTongII]

OMFG!!! 27:17 he said he's in relationship and in love!!! who is the super lucky person????

[@brendanSD]

Ari is so great

[@klaudiamihalj]

Yes finally!! Lauv is hella underrated, I'm so glad he was on this show, hope more people can appreciate him now.

[@alysia1433]

zach really makes the best interviews. always has great questions!

[@ellatocador8263]

i just met him two days ago, i cried but he was the sweetest person ever :')

[@farley333]

I just love him. I've been always too afraid to get diagnosed, but I definitelly have some kind of mental crap going on. It leads to very dark and some times quite prolonged periods in my life. I vividly remember that his "Reforget" track singlehandidly got me out of one of these. He gets it. He knows what happens in brain like that. And you can hear it in the interview too. All that self validation stuff. So true. It also makes me proud to find out he actually studied in my country! I always wondered what was Prague doing in that video for "The Other". I wish I have met that guy over a beer back then, hehe. :) Thanks Zach for this and Lauv, keep rocking man, you never know who and how might need it. :)

[@alaistv]

1. Never Shout Never omg! I loved him, I would have love for him to continue....I was a huge fan!! 2. I was never in Myspace cause here in Perú it wasn't a thing, we had Hi5 and then Facebook happened. But I knew Myspace existed tho. Although till this day I don't know how it looked like or how it worked. 3. Hearing you talking about being depressed really got me, the way you explained it was really detailed, thank you for that. People sometimes don't realized what's going on with them. Specially people my age that doesn't talk about these things as frequently or as easily as the new generation. And being in that state sometimes you don't realized what is happening to you, cause you lose perspective. 4. I love your music! Keep going! You choose the best collabs.

[@eliskasimunkova1556]

He is so not like other "celebrities" i love how chill he is

[@andrew4460]

Amazing interview, amazing interviewer! And of course Lauv

[@soniachapple3141]

I totally hear you Ari! After my second transplant I didn’t realise that I withdrew from my friends/family and just stopped going out. I just lay down and listened to music, I wasn’t motivated to do anything. I didn’t realise until 6 mths after that I was suffering from severe depression. After seeing a psychologist I eventually pulled myself up and am now in a much healthier mind frame (although every once and awhile I lapse back). I knew I wasn’t quite right but just didn’t realise that I was suffering from depression ... I never thought I could be susceptible. 💙💗💙 Also I flove strings (I agree - there’s not enough live instruments) ... congrats an a kick ass song. Confidence isn’t always cocky or arrogant ... it’s just knowing who you are and what u want to do. So happy for you xx 💋

[@areej182]

i love lauv, so nice to hear his thoughts and know he's doing better

[@ChrissyGutierrez]

29:50 Watching this now during Covid Quarantine... If they only knew what was to come! At least he has a studio! lol I wonder if El Tejano does Margaritas to go?!

[@rainarashid]

this interview deserves more attention its so underrated!

[@SAVEDBYTHEREMIX]

such a sweet soul

[@lusaadyofficial]

Lauv is a really unique and genuine artist and person. I find his music so relatable and healing. Lauv's music has helped me get through tough times and you can tell that he pours his thoughts and heart into writing music. His music is who he is. He's one of my favorite artists.

[@kagss366]

Can you try to get Ruel on here? I get he's Aussie and it might be hard...

[@leilanidavis8483]

Yesss

[@adamcheklat7387]

Lauv is short for lauva, Latvian for lion. He was hinting his mother's origins in Latvia.

[@TheFrenzygirl]

Adam Cheklat found out about his Latvian roots just a couple of hours ago lol so cool!!

[@salvadorveiga363]

This interview is precious 💛💛

[@nicolebichota8847]

I LOVE HIM SO MUUUUUCH 😭

[@samhardeen4412]

He put el ‘tejano’ in it. I am grateful for this call

[@NaglNicole]

Such a great Interview , So happy to can hear how he developed and how he grow on himself, ... thank you so much for doing that amazing interview with Ari! And I agree, the old black hair were so cute and beautiful, and the romantic songs too, but I look forward for all the new and happy stuff, because Ari is in love so much right now, may it last a very long time... !!!

[@meowocats11]

one of the most interesting interviews i've seen in ages

[@sarahhayes609]

wow i really do love him with all my heart

[@toomanyrats534]

"So you wrote Drugs and the Internet with Jon Bellion." That right there was a spit-take moment if there ever was one.

[@khanestangkaew7394]

anyone noticed his nail colour?!?!? he's sooo cute

[@emilygee6618]

Wow, hearing his perspective on things is making me really want a BTS and Lauv colab! They seem to have a similar goal and I think there'd be great chemistry, and of course INCREDIBLE music. *Make it happen people* ;)

[@atikanabila6193]

they actually met at one of bts shows and ive never been happier!

[@showmoke]

Troye was hardly ever mentioned at all - just a couple of seconds right at the end!

[@sonalkumari4076]

It's LAUV's interview

[@tiannahjankey]

Dude what did you expect it was a Lauv interview like I'm laughing so hard

[@showmoke]

​@@tiannahjankey - even so, Lauv mentioned quite a few artists during his interview and spoke about his collaboration with them at some length, so I was expecting the same amount of detail about his collaboration with Troye, but Troye was only mentioned as an afterthought right at the end, and only when Zach mentioned his name, Just thought it was a bit odd that there was no info about his collaboration with Troye especially as Lauv would have spent some time with Troye during the production of the 'I'm So Tired' single.

[@jeanneseguineau6922]

What's the band he is talking about at the beginning?

[@kairag4048]
