Buy / stream: PhoebeBridgers...
Directed by Lachlan Turczan

[@krd2331]

This is one of the most heart-shattering songs ever written.

[@nameforcomments4092]

I also recommend listening to the Virtute the cat songs by John K. Samson / The Weakerthans. They're about a guy with depression and alcoholism reflecting on how he failed to take adequate care of a cat, a description that in no way does those songs justice. I should also mention three of the four songs are written from the cat's perspective. If anyone has any recommendations for me, pile 'em on!

Brutally honest. The whole subject of getting so self absorbed and having so much self loathing as you go through life even though all the while there are kids who never even got to see the days you're experiencing. Phoebe is a truly gifted being.

This is something I struggle with a lot, there's so much guilt over having a privileged life that others wish they had, but my mental illnesses prevent me from wanting to be alive at all. Life isn't fair and it's a heavy feeling

My friend died this summer and this line specifically makes me cry

[@markmeleady]

This line always gets me.

[@idontunderstand7665]

This song gives me a lot of comfort, but it makes me so sad. When I was in 7th grade, there was this boy I wanted to be friends with. He would let me borrow his watercolors in art class, was my dance partner in well dance class, and copy his homework. He started to miss school really often at the beginning of the year until he stopped showing up one day. A week later, we received the news about his head tumor. Everyone in school hoped he would get better, including me. My friend group that he was part of too wanted to go visit him, I wanted to go too, but they told me I couldn't because I knew him for less time. In the end, they got told he wasn't receiving visits from people outside his family, so they didn't get to see him. But I did; I was in the hallway and saw him; he was wearing an oversized jacket and a gray beanie. He looked taller, puff up his complexion was really pale, and he had the darkest eyebags. We talked for a short period, and I ask him when he was coming back to school. I hate how I didn't realize how insensitive that was at the time, how cruel; He said, "I don't know." Gave me a USB in the shape of a dinosaur with a project for our literature class and left. That was the last time I saw him. My classmates stopped talking about him; no one mentioned him again, not even the teachers, and we went into 8th grade like he was never there. October came in, and I got the news of his parting. It was a Facebook post telling us the reception date and directions; I cried, screamed, and sobbed all day. Going to the funeral was the most challenging part; We were supposed to wear all white, so I had to wear a graphic shirt that no longer fit me and my mom's white jeans. I didn't have any white clothes at that time. When I got to the funeral parlor, 3 of my classmates caught my eye, a girl in particular in that group. She was wearing a white shirt, a blue mini skirt, and beige high heels. But their behavior was even more infuriating, taking pictures, drinking coffee; It was really gross. They treated the funeral for a 13-year-old, cancer patience like some sort of hangout. But I was more disgusted at my own thoughts; I was jealous of him and angry at God for taking the straight-A student who wanted to be a doctor. Instead of me, someone who didn't have any dreams for the future and still doesn't. And I think that was the day I stopped believing in god all together. I felt so guilty for having those thoughts, especially after hearing more about him from his grandparents. How he would do all the school projects regardless of his illness and would say, "I'm in 8th grade!" even though he was no longer in school. How he was in so much pain every day that he would commit SH because he no longer wanted to suffer. It's been 10 years since, and I still think about him; And even though I know my schoolmates probably do too, it doesn't feel like it. I feel so guilty because I feel I'm wasting my life while he can no longer live his. But I like to think he's the one helping me when my path becomes rocky because every time I tried to unalive myself, I think of him and go on a walk and calm myself. I can't find a picture of him. It almost feels like he completely disappeared; I wish I could at least remember his face. This song describes the experience of losing someone who died being young while also being young and having an overwhelming desire to no longer stay alive. The horrible feeling to see all your friends move towards the future but being stuck in the past yourself. It gives me a lot of comfort knowing I'm not alone, that there are people with a similar experience as me. I'm sorry you're also going through this too; I hope we can all heal together.

Some people with anxiety or depression talk about getting 'tunnel vision' in acute episodes of their sickness. These people are usually quite deep feeling, and can be profoundly empathetic, but in these times their sadness can be so all encompassing that it shrinks their ability to see outside of their immediate need for relief. They feel that this is a mark of selfishness, and beat themselves up for it in a torturous feedback loop. I think Phoebe puts these feelings perfectly in her inflection of "Jesus Christ I'm so blue all the time", especially after the end of the second verse: "wishin I was someone else, feeling sorry for myself when I remembered someone's kid is dead" Unreal songwriting.

When I was in the 4th grade our class sang for 6 funerals. When we were told we'd leave class for 2 hours so we could sing for a funeral it seemed like good news.

I remember still each funeral, the crying, the sadness and I felt the loss of strangers as if they had been a friends.

[@cello9877]

I met a girl way back 2018 at the at the reception area of the hospital when I accompanied my mother who had undergone chemotherapy at that time. I think we're at the same age and we talked for a while. She was all smiles and have this really vibrant aura in her that I immediately felt. When I learned that she has a cancer, it shocked me and didn't know what to say after what I learned. We said goodbyes when we parted ways. And I can't just stop thinking of her at that day. Now, when I think of my mom (who died a year after), I always think of her too, wondering if she's doing okay. I don't have her name but I always try so hard to at least remember her face, in hopes that I might see her again. These kind of stuff are really alive at late nights whenever I dwell on things on the past esp. my mom whom I always missed forever.

Such a strange confluence of emotions on this track. The lyrics are just a sheer, earth-shattering depression that hits you square in the chest, yet the delivery / vocals offer this warm, disarming embrace.

This is such an achingly beautiful and accurate description of clinical depression. As someone studying psychology that also has been dealing with depression for most of my life, it’s cathartic in so many ways to hear Phoebe put lyrics and melody to feelings I’ve felt so often. There’s a profound sense of guilt with depression in feeling you could have it much worse, but at the same time, always feeling so blue. “Always have and always will.”

[@bwolf1598]

“Jesus Christ I’m so blue all the time… and that’s just how I feel…” Wow she could be singing about me and my son Joe. I miss him so much.

My life has been so different since he shot a bullet through his head. Since I left him that day. I am always wondering what might have happened if I had stayed. If he would still be here.

i'm so glad this song didn't exist when i was 12 years old going through my emo phase because the line "jesus christ, i'm so blue all the time" would have taken over MY LIFE this song is so beautiful

I came back to listen to this song again today and for the first time ever I didn't sob my eyes out. As the song ended I realized that I'm getting better. I then immediately started happy crying LMAO. I never thought I could feel this good ever again, but I do. I can't describe how good this feels

[@vermaledeit1799]

she‘s speaking somehow through the guitar in the beginning... I‘m shaked😍 I love the sad songs, too phoebe🖤

[@lucaunderground]

Jesus Christ, I'm so Blue all the time And That's just how I Feel Always have and I Always Will. There's a sort of sweet sadness to this, like she's accepted the reality of herself. She says this sad line, but she says it like she's ok with it.

I was clinically depressed for years, somehow like walking out of my own body in a dream, the depression fell away. All of a sudden I was a butterfly. I don't know how this happened but sometimes I get a glimpse of the old me and I wanna run away so fast. I am a new fan of Phoebe Bridgers, she makes me think, she keeps me humble

[@blakemcneilly9500]

Addicted to the heartbreaking beauty of someone summing up my entire thought process in this song. 💔.

[@HelloSadness101]

Listen to this song constantly and it always gives me tingles. Feels like they get more intense with each listen. So rare. I've felt strongly about alot of music, but this one song in particular just grabs my heart and squeezes it so damn tight.

[@spencersuen3360]

probably one of my favorite songs of all time, everything from the lyrics to the instrumental to Phoebe's voice is so melancholic & poignant

[@user-dl8pg7hr6o]

This was my favorite song about a year ago. It got me through a lot. God, the nostalgia.

[@audreyjohnson5954]

it's like she wrote this song for the elementary school shooting in Texas. hopefully the young angels are safe in heaven.

[@Lauridixx]

This song is so meaningful and perfect. Thank you for sharing this with us♥️

[@clcr932]

That's interesting that you say that because I had the same feeling until she said, 'I don't need you to tell me what that means, I don't believe in that stuff any more'. That took what I thought was how I understood the line she said before that to something I don't know how to describe. But yes I agree

[@ShellRobertsonx]

My mum passed away at the end of 2021 and one of the songs I picked for her funeral was 'blue' by Joni Mitchel. This song reminds me so much of Joni, it's almost like a response song for me, navigating the grief.

[@KevinEdwardMusic]

This is the most incredible song I’ve ever heard.. someone shared this with me on Reddit. So happy now

Never forget the first time I heard the intro. I looked at my wife: “Away in a manger?” “No,” she says. “Keep listening.” Imagine my surprise when I met the chorus. Well played, Ms. Bridgers.

[@Otterlyconfused]

It’s been 6 years since my dad took his own life. Every year I listen to this on repeat. Also “Christmas Song”. Christmas time always hurts so much.

[@tinamarief51]

Just found Phoebe Bridgers today... wow, I love her music, she is now on my daily rotation. Love hearing new music

[@capricorn2410]

This just puts my feelings into words - I couldn't relate any more to a song it - makes me think of losing my brother and everything, and it just feels like someone understands

[@C0H87]

The first verse of this song really might be one of the best pieces of writing in modern music. It honestly saved my life. Wife left me. I was drinking alot. Couldn’t see a way out. Thought constantly about ending it. Came close a few times. When I heard this song I realized what that would do to the people who loved me who I’d be leaving behind. Every time I hear this song now I can’t help myself from crying. It’s automatic.

[@hazelmanaig8670]

This song... I feel it in my bones. Phoebe's words are mine.

[@bigbossman2864]

Thank you, Phoebe Bridges for making the world a little less lonely.

[@olivergrubb]

There's something about how blunt the lyrics are in this song that always gets to me, like just straight up saying 'I'm so blue' for some reason is super affecting

[@amymenz5962]

this song gives me shivers every time "jesus christ im so blue all the time." sobbing.

[@astridlil]

This will probably get lost in the sea of comments, but honestly, the first time I heard this song was a little more than a year ago now. Just after one of my friends had overdosed and died. She was only 16. We all were. At that same time I was and still am dealing with mental health struggles. It was and still is so hard to live some days. But then I remember what her urn looked like. And the eyes of her father and sisters during the funeral. Young people should not die. This song is so important to me, because it describes grief, self-hatred, and just a total loss of innocence so well. There is nothing like losing someone young when you are young yourself, only those who have gone through it can really understand, and this song perfectly encapsulates that. Please tell your loved ones you love them.

This song takes me back ten years when my friend died, I remember being at the funeral with a bunch of my school friends.

[@rachelhoualaha7970]

The summer I turned pretty brought me here😢

[@ankithakishorchandra7030]

I'd heard this song a couple of years ago, but I'd never experienced death in a way that would make me understand this song. However, I lost a friend recently; he was a gem of a person - always ready with a smile and a joke, and was knowledgeable in the sort of way few people can only imagine. I was trying to accept the fact that he was gone just a day before his funeral, and I remembered Phoebe had this song from SITA. I listened to this song on repeat the whole day before my friend was buried, and the day of, and the day after...I cried constantly. It was the only song I could listen to for a few days. I once could not relate to a single word of this song, but today, every single word cuts deep and bitterly. This was bound to happen someday, obviously, but I just really wish it wasn't because of his death. He shouldn't have passed. The world needed his ingenuity. The lyrics talk about not believing in much, self-pity and the self-hate that follows from that cycle, and I have been going through these motions everytime I think of him. Me and a friend reached out to his mom and dad, and they are understandably shattered beyond description. I will always remember my friend as an amazing person and I know that everyone who had the good fortune to meet him will do the same. As for myself, I am thankful I have this song to both: remind me of him and cherish the invaluable memories that remain. I hope he knew how much I really liked him.

[@wtmuller1]

If this song doesn't make you cry or at least want to, you have no soul. Beautifully written and executed. Thanks Phoebe.
