[@kanevout1406]

Abhishek Basnyat you've obviously not heard the spongebob theme song

[@henryjackson2357]

Does anyone else consciously feel genuine melancholy coursing through this song? It always makes me feel sad and it lingers after the song is over. The chorus is famously triumphant and anthemic, but it's tinged with a direct yearning that I think people feel but don't exactly register, if that makes sense. A yearning for a kind life beyond a feeling of quiet emptiness, conveyed through the urgency of the music and cryptic lyrics. As the narrator seeks to find someone or something to make him feel whole again, the listener understands how compelling and identifiable that feeling is. It's radiance mixed with sadness and I think that may explain its enormous popularity with the youth of today (and those who fondly remember it from a time long gone). That mix of feeling is so pure and seemingly uncomplicated that it just hooks so many and plucks a deep, resonant chord. Maybe it's just my rueful nature, but I'm sure people of all dispositions can understand this. There's something desperately melancholy about it becoming THE millennial anthem - I believe it's appeal for millions lies in the current political/social climate. It's a catharsis for the young people becoming adults in strange times. (4/4/18)

[@bestiediananas]

Henry Jackson me! i always felt this melancholy... and i’m 38... is beyond generation... just the magic of music

[@michelleh6176]

Wonderfully expressed! I’m also 38 and was in Africa for a few months as a 4 year old when this song came out. I came back to the states and thought this song was about my own personal experience 🤣 I can smell Africa, and the wonderful time that I had there when I hear this. It’s very emotional for me. My all time favorite!

[@CrimsonWolf69]

Your explanation is exactly correct, at least for me. It is definitely a feeling that is hard to put into words.

[@pancakesgo7995]

@@MrHantz101 The video is kind of posed. The drummer, Jeff, recorded this on a standard kit and there was some additional percussion overlayed too. The main beat is actually genius in its simplicity, it's the percussion that makes it sound a little more complicated when put together.
