I used to hate summer, it always meant more work and lonely times, especially for someone without many friends. Last year I worked on my mental health a lot and realized the reason I hated this season is because I hated myself. But this year I got a new job, made a lot of new friends and even started a new relationship, this song captures everything good I've felt about summer this year and that makes me really happy. Thank you Half Alive

I think this is what everyone wants, but few can attain. Everyone wants friends to endlessly experience the joys of life but in an age of heightened fears, this keeps seeming more and more like a distant dream than an achievable reality. To those living in summerland, kudos to you. And also, how do I get there?

And 25 years later you'll says to yourself god damn i can't get that back and yet you'll remember so much. And wish you could go back because it was better then because there was no Facebook no social media no political outrage around every corner and of course you were younger. But what do i know 🤔

You might never get there, but my advice is don’t let it get in your way when it comes to living your life and making memories. I recently had an experience close to summerland (except it’s winter down here) and though I had a fun time with my friends it wasn’t even close to what my mind had idealized. So I guess life will never be what we want it to be, but this unachievable reality shouldn’t stop us from being thankful for where we are and who we’re with
This video hits that perfect happy-sad nostalgic sweet spot.

fivels laugh throughout the video makes this even better than it already is 😍😍😍
I just figured out that the whole video is a loop, at the beginning Josh watches Fivel leave at the airport and then at the end Josh watches Fivel leave again, so does this mean that he is stuck in summer land and that the song is metaphor for being in a dark place and instead of getting help, they just decide focus on the good parts and that's all they do, but deep down inside they not ok, because at the end and beginning Josh looks worried
@0jellybelly01
3 жыл бұрын
I don't think he's "stuck" in a dark place, but the reality is that we go through happy and hard seasons. "Whatever ain't golden will always come back around" and "something about May makes it all feel better" show that to me🤗 great eye noticing the loop!! Gives it more meaning

To me, the loop is more like wanting to replay these moments again and again in your head because they are happy memories. They make you nostalgic, remind you of times more free, where possibilities were endless, but Summer will end and so too will this Summer romance. Josh is reminded of that by Fivel's friend in the dishwashing scene and his face in the beginning/end conveys he knows it's the end now too. This Summer will now be nothing more than a happy memory. It's bittersweet, but such is the fleetingness of Summer.

maybe going a little deep there. just seems like the whole video takes place in that moment she leaves. and all he's doing is remembering the great summer they had together.
@crysheart
2 жыл бұрын
Considering the vibe of the song, I personally don't think the video is supposed be that deep and/or dark. In fact, I think it's the total opposite-- Josh is singing about the joy and comfort he feels whenever summer rolls around. The video looping could either be just a stylistic choice, or him thinking about all the fun they had. Also, rather than being worried, I think Josh is just sad to see her go at the start and end.
you guys are just the greatest!

Everything is freedom 'Til the seasons change And the trees start dying And the sunlight leaves your face Hear the crack of lightning Where your heart will break Into new beginnings beginning to erase [Pre-Chorus] But something 'bout May makes it all feel better, baby Summerland holds what I want right now It's like the hoodie you find and you wear forever, baby Whatever ain't golden now will only come back around [Chorus] When summer comes, I'ma cut my hair Take a long drive heading anywhere Be dancing all night with all my friends Sittin' on the shores of Summerland, oh When summer comes, I'ma cut my hair Take a long drive heading anywhere Be dancing all night with all my friends Sittin' on the shores of Summerland [Verse 2] Now the year is aging And the shadows grow And the color's fading And the people start to slow Like a crowded station Where the air is cold All the strangers waiting On the train that could bring them home
manifesting this kind of summer for me and everyone watching this rn
The most unbelievable thing about this whole (very well done video) is that these people have friends at their age who are actually available to go on (what appears to be) MULTIPLE different road trips. I can barely get by with a day or two of vacation at a time let alone plan elaborate week long getaways with multiple individuals of exactly corresponding days off.

I saw them twice - they opened for twenty one pilots - first two nights of TOP residency in Columbus. I’m so thankful for their music just as much as 21s. This song is infinite. This song is nostalgia floating in a messenger bottle waiting to be discovered. Absolutely brilliant highway serenade.

soo excited for this, the song itself is great, and just based off of the preview it looks like the real thing will be really aesthetically pleasing. Also noticing how well written the description is, even with it being just a paragraph. Can't wait!! Edit: I was not at all dissapointed. It looks like it was so fun to film, who cares about daily serotonin when you can get the yearlong package with this stuff. aaaa I love it, also the part starting at like 2:54 is so well transtitioned i cant anymore

this made me feel some time of way... wish i could rewatch that for the first time again.
If I'm going to be honest, I think I like this song the most, like more than still feel.
Their cinematography and story telling is constantly getting better and better.
This is the kind of song where you say "it's cool" and the more you listen to it, grows on you to the point of goosebumps 💛
This video just broke my heart but I also loved it so so much. It captures very very strong feelings and emotions that I’ve experienced before and that I long for again. This video, just like every other half alive video is perfection. I’ve admired josh ever since the first time I set eyes on a half alive video in 2019 and wish I could have him or someone like him in my life. Everything about him reminds me of someone I once use to know. Beautiful video. Made me cry.
