Perhaps nihilism at most, but Ben literally just says in the words... if heaven and hell decide [to shut their doors/not accept anyone new in] then "I'll follow you into the dark" the dark being the unknown.

[@marktaylor7293]

LAV is an Aussie independent radio station's in-house live performance thing they did/probably still do live on air. Acts would do one cover and one original song. As far as I'm aware its always been amazing stripped down raw performances. And its always had a rep for taking it seriously. if you go back through the history there are so many amazing covers from bands you've never heard of taking a well-known song putting their own spin on it but still respecting the original. Bands usually had to put thought into it as well. like the radio hosts would make them give a really obscure hint to the cover song. That's what they would use to hype the act coming on the show. The artist just before they performed the songs would talk about why they chose that song imparticular. Most times it was a really personal connection to the song for the artist. For example, as far as I know, I could be wrong on this. No one has ever lip-synced for example. tripleJ (the radiostation) for the most part, some people debate it now. but they always had integrity and usually supported music genuinely. And totally agree the original was way more emotional, but credit where credit's due. These guys hit it out of the park.

I remember listening to this song at a younger age and just enjoying the jam. Now it brings tears to my eyes as I look at my wife and realize she is my absolute everything and something worth finally dying for. To go from being scared of death to embracing it is a very beautiful thing, that both confuses you and feels so right.

Well jus so u know she looked away so she didn't laugh into the mic. Nothing to do with shyness. She's in front of a very sensitive mic. It catches even small breaths. So she had to turn away cuz she slightly laughed. That's why. Most likely they don't give a shit about each other. Celebrities know it's all temporary.

She's under a lot of pressure to look a certain way though, y'know? Most female artists are - and she's a beautiful girl, so you can't really blame her for leaning into it. I think she's always been a great performer, even if her notes are shaky or off sometimes. Stellar vocals are only a small part of being a great musical artist, especially a female solo act.

[@penzotoko6619]

@@tugba5939 Because with only a few exceptions, ballads are artistic and mental oatmeal. They are the things that almost always ruin good rock bands and most of the pop stars use them to defibrillate a slipping career. The ballad is essentially the Hallmark card of music, safe, boring and mind-numbingly sappy. Add to the fact that the recording industry for years has set the standard that every album has to have at least one and it starts to become nauseating.

Yes, Halsey and Dom broke up. But they are on good terms and are still friends that support each other!
