@@aussie698 You can't be a philosopher without being anxious, Carlos. Just accept your anxiety as a facet of your personality. At least that's what i do, at some point i gave up the battle and now anxiety for me is like a girlfriend i don't really fancy, but we're kind of soulmates...

[@ptanyuh]

@@aussie698 No, it isn't. It may seem like that if you compare yourself to others, but only you are you. And our anxiety means we're thoughtful, caring, empathetic, and careful people. This isn't a waste as much as the gaslighters want us to think it is. Take care

It's a little early for album of the decade already but that's not stopping Wolf Alice from dropping it anyway :)

[@darrenmcmahon4215]

Your work isn't bad either. Similar feel to an Aussie band we had here in the 80's and 90's, Weddings, Parties, Anything.

Ellie said in an interview recently she wanted to show off her instrument more (her voice). Well she has smashed it out of the park here. Glorious. This song is going to be huge live. They love festivals and I can see this being a massive song in such a setting. One of those "moment" songs you won't forget.

[@darrelsdiamonds3353]

Because there being delibrately kept down (radio air time, youtube views manipulated/pushed down whatever you wanna call it) cause of there support for Palestine which I completely agree with (there support for Palestine). The world is run by an evil Zionist regime that you make enemies of if you go against them. They are my heroes, not just for the music but there bravery in supporting the BDS movement (boycott, divestment and Sanctions) against Israel. They risked there career for there beliefs and no doubt they'd be bigger if they towed the line. Last Man On Earth should've been there biggest hit, there no1 and time to shine. This is the first time I've seen a chance to mention all this cause of your comment. I hope they don't get bumped off one day like the lady from The Cranberries so obviously was

[@robertstephanek7063]

Right there with you Tony. At 64, I stumbled onto a Wolf Alice video 8 months ago. I just had the whole band sign my Jackson guitar signed in Kansas City. Amazed at the body of work this band has put out. To go big time, and play your own material is incredible!

[@David-qo2mj]

Being alone in your little poorly lit room. Too much amphetamine but at least I'm not drinking. I am trapped inside this song, again and again and again. I want to stay here forever. It's fucking beautiful. I wish someone was here so we could watch and listen to this together. I am afraid of the inevitable sunrise. The sun will destroy everything. But Wolf Alice is amazing.

Really impressive vocals and creative arrangement. Ellie really showcasing the absolute power and dynamic abilities of her vocals, some of it sounds very much next level. Ellie is in a way, a next-gen Cyndi Lauper, Stevie Nicks, Dolores ORiordan, Liz Phair, Kim Deal and even T.swift hybrid all rolled into one- she's really incredible and the band has a brilliant chemistry.

This is the band that carries the legacy of the 90’s alternative rock scene the best.

[@edpitts2110]

Picking best Wolf Alice songs makes Sophie’s Choice look like a walk in the park but I’m going with the holy trinity of Silk, Don’t Delete the Kisses and How Can I Make it Ok? Utterly breathtaking.

[@YamiCris91]

The song is brilliant, and the video clip gives me such a moving and powerful message. As a personal interpretation, it made me think that you shouldn't be afraid of being yourself. If it doesn't affect anyone negatively, you should be brave to do whatever makes you happy. Maybe some people may laugh at you or think you're a fool (e.g., when the crowd rejects to join in), but by showing who you really are, you may lighten up some other people's mood, just like the man who joins in singing. The end is sublime and brought a tear to my eye. We're all human, after all.

[@reyvarela9572]

[@theenforcer22]

One of them refusing to join in was Theo from the band!

[@c1c3ro]

I totally agree with you, but I like to see it from the perspective of someone with social anxiety, this song is just so powerful, it's her talking to herself: "I'm not fine here, how can I make it ok? I just want myself to be happy"

[@adrianjas284]

I find the video clip distracting, but also poignant. It's karaoke (or lip synch?) and nobody wants to join in when its a "creepy old guy" doing it but one man doesn't care. He just loves the song so much that he has to jump up and join in, and embrace the man that loves the song as much as he. It takes a surreal turn at the end but it feels like the crowd joins in too. It looks on the surface that they may be suddenly gay for each other, but imo they are attracted to the song. They are connected by love.

@@adrianjas284 ah that’s beautiful. I agree with you ✌🏻❤️

[@michaels6944]

There's something so beautiful and human about this video. One of the most remarkable videos I've seen in a while. Kind of hits at a sort of nostalgic, once-in-a-lifetime feeling that comes on a night out like this. This sort of ephemeral closeness, where maybe you'll never even see this person again, but it's meaningful enough in that moment. I'm rambling, but maybe some people will get this. Gives me some hope for the future of human connection

[@leemids]

im 52, sadly probably have more experience in new bands etc than most but hopefully not all, wolf alice for me are one of the only bands right now pushing any boundaries musically, better live than recorded equals greatness, and that they are......

When I first heard this song, I enjoyed the melody & production. Much later I paid more attention to the lyrics. As I listened to the lyrics I just felt a complete wave of emotion. I am presently addressing & healing from childhood trauma. The lyrics of this song are helping me to heal. "to live in fear is not to live at all". This refrain stuck in my head & it was like a switch went, I just knew, now was the time to get the help I so badly needed. I want to make things ok and I want to make myself happy.

[@benbenmr]

This song means a lot to me. It's been 3 months and I'm still moving on from an abrupt break up from my 6 years of relationship with my ex. It sucked and traumatized me. This song helped me cope and managed to make me smile and get up from wallowing in existensial dread, especially when I listen to this song while looking at myself in the mirror bawling my eyes out. This song feels like a pat in the back, it feels like logical me talking sense to emotional me.

[@CottonCandyNationYT]

When I first listened to this song, I imagined it was one person singing to another. Now that I'm trying to stop people pleasing and stop giving a shit what everyone thinks of me, this song hits different. I see it as a song to sing to oneself. It makes me emotional to sing to it to myself, and I love it. It feels so good. It feels like an empowering release. It feels like I can be shaky but still confident in myself. The music video is beautiful, too. Such an amazing album and an amazing band. Thank you.

[@neptuned4746]

About 8 years ago now I remember hearing this band and thinking "Why do I have this feeling this band is gonna do great things?" little did I know the absolute God smack of albums and songs that were to come. I'm so glad you guys stuck around.

" gives me chills. The overlap with that refrain is sooo perfectly done. Also the changes in this song and the transitions where the guitar parts come in heavy are fucking amazing.
