the second verse is talking about a gay man, he is a young james dean but would never fall in love with a girl (he could never love somebody's daughter) as James Dean did, and "football team, loved more than just the game" can be interpreted as the guy didn't join the football team just because he liked football and thought it would be fun, but because of a boy that he was in love with who was on the team (interpreted because of the next line, "so he vowed to be his husband at the altar). That's how I interpret the second verse, since the song is called "new americana" where america is changing, accepting the lgbtq community and gay rights, which goes with marriage, which is portrayed in this verse.

It's one of those songs made for an age range. Like made for a specific age range that Halsey is in and younger imo. Which is awesome.

Gasoline is a fan favorite, helped a lot of people with their mental health 🥺❤️ It’s a deluxe track but one of the most successful of the album. She talked a lot about her bipolar disorder on this album.

3:13 her first project is Room 93 (EP) which has (one of) probably the best song of her career (Is There Somewhere). You should check it out!

Woo such an underrated album!

She did an EP before Badlands called Room 93, you should listen to it! There are 5 songs but you already know 2 of them (Ghost and Hurricane). In this Ep there is "Is there somewhere" which is, in my opinion, the most beautiful song in Halsey's career

You should react to the room 93 ep There’s only 5 songs and you’ve already heard ‘hurricane’ and ‘ghost’. So that leaves, trouble (stripped), is there somewhere and empty gold. Trouble is just heart wrentching and the vocals are on point. Is there somewhere is a fan favourite about escaping reality essentially. And my personal favourite empty gold is like the ending to a movie of light twilight or a murder film where everyone but the main character dies and the ending is just them walking in the woods at night to this song covered in blood.

Agh this album is sooo good its a masterpiece, no skips for me, the lyrics, the production, the imagery, storytelling, her vocals. Just perfection, I used to listen to it constantly. I remember listening to this, Florence, Lorde, Marina and Ellie in those days, my alt pop queens.

I LOVE THIS ALBUM WITH MY SOUL AND BODY

you’re exactly right about colors part 2 btw, it was made to be played live! Whenever she performs it actually it’s the intro to colors. You should really check out her badlands live from webster hall album (and possibly do a reaction to it too 👉👈)!! It’s SO good and she goes in to detail on the “talking breaks” tracks about THAT is how she meant for the album to be heard, how she performs it live. Even if you don’t make a video for it I really hope you check out the album. She put it out for 5 year anniversary of badlands this past summer and it gave everyone the concert experience they were missing during quarantine:) (it was recorded in may of 2019, the next night she performed HFK in full and when that show ended, she announced nightmare as her next single!)

My jaw dropped when I saw this on twitter and I clicked immediately

Halsey's lycris is always personnel she really share so much of her in her music like in gasoline and controm and more and I love that you appericiate her voice so much halsey approved so much vocally she even realized live album for badland

The chorus of New Americana was probably so familiar because it sounds so much like National Anthem by Lana Del Rey

Hi Caitlin, I just wanted to say THANK YOU! i appreciate all your hard work you have given us this year, every recommendation I have given yo have done which is so amazing. Thank you so much for all your work and time I know how it hard it is and draining it is. Thank you and love you

Colors pt. ii live is SO GOOD!!! I've seen it on tour and it just.... feels like being on tour

this video gave me so much nostalgia to reading teen wolf fanfictions with this in the background

PLEASE react to Ava Max's debut album called "Heaven & Hell"!

You should watch the mv to "colours" tho, definitely worth it ahah it gives the song a new meaning with a plot twist

I'm sooo excited to watch this reaction!!! and hfk one is gonna be epic too, hfk is literally my favorite album of all time, it's just perfect!! you should as well react to her first ever project, room 93, and her single nightmare, which is my fav song of her!!

omg i'm so happy you reacted to this, you'll most likely really enjoy hfk!

this has been one of my favorite albums since i was a teen and you're my favorite reactor i can't explain my happiness when i saw this video

Badlands is one of my favorite albums ahhh, i'm so happy you're reacting to it !!

Drive is not only my favorite on the album, but just my favorite by her in general.

Ok i LOVE this reaction even if i didn't see it because i wanted to listen to it for so long but now imma listen to it with you

Your editing skills leave me speechless I love every single video !!!

The editing 🙌👏 an actual masterpiece

OMG BADLANDS IS A FREAKING MASTERPIECE YEES! the moment you said that drive was going to be one of your favorites i thought "she's is a visionary" because that song is PERFECTION! loved this reaction caitlin, love you 💜

YES YES YES YES YES FINALLY ANOTHER PERSON WHO STANS DRIVE! Drive is my all time favorite halsey song! it’s so euphoric and just visual i have a different vision / music video in my mind every time i hear it!

This album is so dark but it’s my favorite

This album changed my life.

When I saw her in Paris in february she played colors part II and did like a choreo during it ! It was sick

thank you so much for doing reaction this Badlands 🖤

major throwback!!!

I have been waiting for her to do this album for so long I’m so glad that she goes back and does older albums instead of just like the new albums from artists

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS OF ALL TIME IM SO HAPPY THANK YOU!!!!

I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS BUT I LOVE U FOR IT

About six months ago, they leaked a song called Honesty that was supposed to be on the album, but ended up going to the unreleased. Find it and listen to it, it’s bop.

my all time fav halsey song is hurricane 💕 i love that song so much

Honestly each song in her albums are certified bops. One of my favorite albums

i went to her concert and hearing Haunting, like irl, it was just mindblowing and i loved it, and her voice was just flawless and so strong and raw- god i wanna go baaaaack

This is everything omg I've never been so early

Killing Boys is my favorite song from her Maybe my favorite song ever It’s so good

YES

THE EDITING YESSS QUEEEN

I’m waiting for HOPELESS FOUNTAIN KINGDOM, in my opinion her best album with Manic

this album is my therapy

Your halsey reactionnn❤

Omg I love this so muchhh!!! I hope someday you would react to her webster hall live version too

wow I CAN'T WAIT FOR HFK!!!

I’m so happy her first 2 albums are just perfection

Now react to Hopeless Fountain Kingdom 👑 ⛲️🔮😈🔥

I couldnt tell how much i love this, badlands is my fav album ever, u r right, the production, her voice, the dark sounds... the haunting of hill house/bly manor btw 👌👌👌👌

HOLY SHIT HALSEY DISCOGRAPHY JOURNEY!!!! I'm ALL in! Also, please react 2 AURORA's discography at some point. Your world will NEVER be the same again!!!

please do marina (and the diamonds) she’s incredible

Badlands is everything. Badlands was my jam when I was in School and I still listen it a lot, and my Jam right now is Manic when I on way to university (It takes me 2 hours to get there so yeah I can confirm that listening to Halsey is the best for those moments) Now I'm in Home for the pandemic of cause but I listen to Halsey 24 along with BTS, Shawn Mendes, Avril Lavigne, 5SOS, Conan Grey...

Please listen to pure heroine and melodrama by lorde!!! You’ll love them so so so much

please react to AURORA's "All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend" album, HER VOICE IS PHENOMENAL!!!!

Just so you know Badlands is a concept album about a place called Badlands and though the songs are all about her, the songs tell a story together.

I've been raking my head trying to think of great poc artists for you to react to ever since your expressed you concerns about it.... how about Khalid - American teen and Kali Uchis - Isolation, I think they would totally be your speed...

This album is a masterpieceeee

She released an EP before this called Room 93 and there are 5 songs on it 2 songs are on Badlands but 3 of them are unique to the EP

young god is my favourite halsey song for sure it's just so transcendental

YES, 'strange love' is everything!!

omg I feel like im 16 again, I forgot how much I LOVE this album, thank you for reminding me ♡

this album is so nostalgic

Gasoline, Control, Haunting and Hurricane are my faves. I have lyrics tattooed all over me

This is my favourite Halsey album! (And one of my favourite albums of all time) New Americana, Gasoline, Ghost, Drive, and you know what, every single song is my favourite

FINALLY YAS

YES QUEEN! Also, recommendation, 5sos and The Vamps🤧🤧❤❤

Yaaaaas finally

This album just plays all my memories from when i was 14-15 it’s actually crazy.

colors part 2 was cool to hear as an interlude live... miss those days

OMG I never clicked so fast.

hurricane is my fav song of badlands omg 😭💔

her best album imo

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

Drive is def my favorite

This album was really big on youtube when it came out, sooo many fanvids and multifandom vids with her songs. Castle espessially, which btw was also used for the soundtrack for The Huntsman movie. But also Young God, Control and Gasoline. But I gotta say that Strange Love, Drive and Haunting are my favorites. Also I Walk The Line is a cover, the song is originally by Johnny Cash, an old old song.
