Honestly (Video)

[@fabianibarra9125]

Man, I just finished playing Hi-Fi Rush and this song playing in the last scene was something else. I didn't remember this song existed and it was one of the best rediscoveries of songs I've ever had. What an awesome game and what an incredible song.

[@lobinio]

The hifi rush comment I was hoping to find

[@ShinobuFTW]

I finished the game and was like "This sounds like Billy Corgan. Who the fuck is Zwan!?"

[@SuperTenacD]

@ShinobuFTW his voice is so distinct. I never heard of zwan either, but knew it had to be Billy Corgan

[@Daftkid95]

Chai and Billy Corgans guitar in this video are very similar 🤔

[@ChristianBradley]

Yup, finished it last night and came here this morning. Song and game are perfection and complement each other well

[@angelakaye1101]

[@krispellett2897]

A total under the radar gem....this song is proof that Billy is capable of being in a good mood for at least 3minutes and 50 seconds.

[@ficklefartrecordsco3451]

[@Mathemusician97]

I haven't felt the feeling the ending of hi fi rush gave me in so long. It felt like I had to take a moment to pause and reflect and take the whole game in. This game is such a rare gem. I hope that we get more games in this vein! Or even a series!

[@le_big_monke543]

ong bro I have played through the whole game 3 times now (on different difficulties) and each time I get to the ending it still has that huge feeling of accomplishment and satisfactory contemplation

Dude I finished game and I was whoa like amazing then end credits started so did tears because it was so emotional I can't explain why. But havnt felt that from a game in long time

[@aaroneckardt5514]

I didn't know it was a game. Watched a youtube video about it. Didn't see the song in it. Must be hidden somewhere.
