[@JesseJamesGalvan]

We need more fresh artists like Troye! Definitely brings something new to the table.

[@michellebarry1555]

100%!

[@michelled8408]

Why? I'm not being sarcastic but I find this music to be awful on its own and I don't think we need new artists. I don't know if you can call this music.

[@FindThisAnywhere]

New? He's been around for quite a while now

[@Denis-89]

He is not exactly a new fresh artist though..

[@Demitrival]

“Fresh” lol

[@SongbirdAliWhispers]

I love Troye so much. His songs are awesome and he's so unapologetic about who he is and what he wants. It's refreshing. Thank you for having him on Jimmy!

[@GenLis]

I really love Troye Sivan's energy. And he is so talented, funny, and beautiful!

[@wallyhodges]

He is so angelic looking. He looks like a Disney Prince... lol

[@amandareyna7407]

I think what makes the album so amazing is the accompanying music videos. The cinematography, the colors, the diversity, the dancing! It’s so beautiful 🥹

[@JohnHuxleySavage]

Absolutely agree! So much effort is put into all the details, the cinematography, choreography, costume, makeup, framing and lighting. Top tier aesthetic sensibilities

[@jenlambie14]

Definitely the "choreography" ❤

[@showmoke]

I think Troye may be one of the most successful OG KZbinrs to ever hit the mainstream entertainment industry. A few other KZbinrs have had success within the mainstream as well, but the difference is that Troye can sing, he can act, he can dance, he's very good looking and he's a nice guy - what more can anyone ask from an artist!

[@jonnyfendi2003]

most people dont even know who he is, get real.

[@showmoke]

@@jonnyfendi2003 - well, that's changing I think, particularly as he has now had several appearances on this show plus featured on SNL which is a big plus for any artist's career.

[@peaceful_chaos14]

@@jonnyfendi2003they didn’t say “everybody knows him”. They said he’s had success on mainstream music scene that no other youtuber has had. Try to read properly.

[@caitlynsult2685]

The video of Troye Sivan singing when he was a child. Oh my god, my heart melted 😢❤❤❤ so cute.

[@mattbosley3531]

He really knew how to play to those mums.

[@IsaiahHarrell]

His EYES! They're so 😭😭😭😭😍😍😍😍

[@robertantonnyc]

such a cutie.

[@ploomich]

Melleted** 😉

[@davidpowellseattle]

Love that he picked Somewhere Over The Rainbow (made famous by big gay icon Judy Garland) as his TV debut.

[@phoenixluk]

Thank you for promoting non-American queer artists!! Can't wait for the new album, Troye! Omg Fallon is rocking it tonight with these guests.

[@-streaminadream-5356]

WHOOHOO

[@TheDamagedKoda]

An artist is an artist. No need to mention anything else. Lol

[@phoenixluk]

@@TheDamagedKoda Being gay in some countries is still illegal. In Brunei, a gay person can be stoned to death. In 2023. Homosexuality is illegal in several other countries, and in many others, physical assault against gay people is not a crime. As long as this is true, we are still fighting for our right to survive in liberation. So yes, saying it with pride gives us our power and ourselves back to us.

[@TheDamagedKoda]

@@phoenixluk I'm saying it shouldn't matter. You do you lol.

[@phoenixluk]

@@TheDamagedKoda I'm saying it *does* matter. What you're saying is minority representation doesn't matter. A Black actor is the same as a white actor. No. Did you hear about the uproar with The Little Mermaid. And that was about a freakin' mermaid. Representation matters and should be considered in many facets of our lives, from Hollywood to politics to our social circles. It's not labeling everyone for the fun of it. It's empowering marginalized peoples instead of erasing their identities and assimilating them to the white standard.

[@peterbishopswife6503]

I'm late to the Troye Sivan party, but I'll tell you this, the choreography from "Got me Started" is what got me into him, and he needs to sing and dance!!! He's just wonderful!

[@bakerboycat]

I've been following Troye since his KZbinr days. It always makes me smile to see him talk about his origins 😢

[@rileyolson6008]

I will buy tickets to his show immediately with no hesitation

[@visualhatefvck]

I feel like its going to be a "early Britney Spears" kind of show and I Am here for it 💃💃💃

[@pinkturtle2016]

FRRRR ESPECIALLY TO SHAKE ASS TO RUSH

[@rileyolson6008]

@@adamp108 I’ve seen troye live. He usually does minimal coreo and only a few songs on the album really give choreo. I feel like it would be a good balance AND WE LOVE TROYEEEEE

[@rileyolson6008]

@@adamp108 sounds like you’re hinting at Taylor swift… not sure what the problem is lol. Troy’s choreo has been great so far in his music videos… no need to compare or be negative towards others…

[@pommesschale5440]

I've already seen Troye live in a rather small venue in Cologne, Germany. It was an amazing show, he's a good live singer! I'm really looking forward to see him in a big and spectacular pop show. Maybe even in an arena, who knows.

[@goldenhour2410]

I have been following Troye since the Blue neighborhood era, and he has become a part of my life, his songs never fail to bring me comfort ❤, looking forward to the new Album

[@meshzy13]

ME TOO!!!! As a gay man, his songs gave me hope and let me process my emotions, trauma and heartbreaks too like no other artists do. His lyrics and music just hit different for queer fans me thinks.

[@blancoarnau]

i've been following him since he posted youtube videos back in 2013

[@AkariIto]

"Whether it is a couple of seconds in your case or a couple of hours in mine" 💀I'm dying of laughter

[@Ras_Mc]

“ whether it is couple of seconds in your case…” ☠️ Love songs and videos that already out. Excited for the whole album

[@Antimanium]

Bro roasted him

[@meshzy13]

He is so funny lol

[@rebeltvr6046]

I'm a straight guy but I love Troy's music. So detailed, great hooks, great voice, a very talented artist who is very underrated imo.

[@XanStephP]

OMG! Did he just win that whole crowd over?!!!! Did you hear them when they said tour?!!!!! Yes Troye!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@meghansullivan6812]

Omg I love troye’s totally neutral and even sorta look of admiration during the kid video! Most celebs would’ve been all embarrassed and Shit it’s nice he wasn’t

[@BlakieTT]

I like that "What's the time where you are" song. Jimbo's right, certified BOP!

[@abinadi92]

"I was starting to feel like this connection to not just myself but to everyone and to realize like, how beautiful, even a relationship that last a few hours can be" 🥰

[@tiagomaqz]

This album needs to be number 1. It’s SO GOOOOOOOD!

[@muaddibnelson]

I need Troye to go on tour so bad for something to give each other! He’s one of my favorite artists and his music is so special to me.

[@npats550]

I do like how he is so comfortable with who he is. That whole stage name at age 4! But that clip of him as a kid- that guy was born with talent. Damn catchy, bops! Especially "Got me started". Although he was great at acting in The Idol too.

[@TJD63]

I like Troye so much. Rush and Got Me Started are amazing. I hear both songs and just cant not dance. In the middle of working out today at home i just started dancing like a nut when rush started playing. So good to see someone realize his lifelong dream and then share it. Wishing him the best. Unapologetic and free!

[@meghansullivan6812]

Yes immediate dancing when I hear those songs!

[@james2390]

This era is going to be a MOMENT. 🔥

[@Softball_lvr06]

People acting like Troye is a new artist he has BEEN serving y’all go look at his old songs!!!!

[@taiwanmark]

Troye is so lovely and charismatic

[@nashville._.]

I can just tell I'm going to be SO OBSESSED with this album for atleast the rest of my life 🙏🏻

[@showmoke]

Don't you think that it's about time that Troye was featured and interviewed on the Graham Norton show? LONG overdue imo.

[@e.j.b.3715]

Troye, ilysm. You give me such queer joy. Your music is amazing. Your visuals, your energy, your dancing, the topics of your art,.. i have no words, i'm just in awe

[@PetDKK]

Troye sivans new album is so incredibly beautiful, good and has such a beautiful message!! 😍😍❤❤

[@audreyflow152]

Troye is unstoppable. His music just keeps giving

[@michelled8408]

What on earth does he sing? Is it great like classic rock, metal and some 80s stuff?

[@LuxuriousInterior]

​@michelled8408 it's pop music. Very openly gay pop music

[@zara.1212]

so unbelievably proud of him always ❤️

[@karenromero2568]

He’s so nice and so talented I’m so happy that he finally getting the recognized that he always deserved

[@tasscee511]

His songs are really something fresh in music. Love that Mv filmed in Bangkok too.

[@rhishiko-8644]

Troye is like the fresh air, like reflection of the sun in a dewdrop! He is so good🔥 (it was my 1st time to see him in childhood - real angel!💙🤍- i was thinking that he's shining now, but in that age bb was a dazzling diamond😳)

[@edgarmarafuga143]

Troye is so Beautiful! Love what he is doing

[@mjohnson9563]

I saw Troye at the Moody Theatre here in Austin back in 2018 six months after he did a private show at South by Southwest. He was very well received and the concert was one of the best due to its intimate touch in front of 2500 screaming fans. The only minor flaw was he did not thank the fans who were from San Antonio or Temple Killeen here in Central Texas. Outside of that it was an incredible concert and I truly do enjoy his songs as they tend to be a bit Euro Pop. I'm sure his next tour will be much more involved with more tour dates and locations. I do hope he finds another boyfriend. As the saying goes, when you fall down you have to learn to pick yourself up and move forwards.

[@literallyleo7]

i was there too!

[@williamguerrero5894]
