Omg 3 hours I’m so seated

Kennedy Underwood

AHHHHH, I’m so excited oh my goodness! I’ve been listening to this album the entire day. I have so much to say…. But tbh have no idea how to say any of it☠️😅💙

Holly Woods

I'm sat. 🧘🏻‍♀️

Olivia is a really talented vocalist and really knows how to use her voice to enhance the experience of a song. I think the songwriting is excellent on the new album, but she also uses her voice to deliver that songwriting really effectively. She knows when to go soft, when to escalate, when to wail... and there are multiple songs on this album that hits super close to home right now. Especially begged!!

Valentina

So excited!! I'm watching this in a few hours 💜

3 HOURS???? THIS IS A FULL COURSE MEALLL IM SAT. i was in the middle of making my food while listening to the album 😭 thank you so much danny for your dedication we love you ♥️

Sarah Savala

I am so seated for a 3 hour breaking of your own heart listening to this. I made the mistake of listening to the album last night and then a few hours later watching the most recent episode of "Go For It, Nakamura!" which uh yeah I bawled (IYKYK) so now my brain is like "oh okay now you wanna cry along with Danny?! you masochist"

icyguess

I’m only 36 minutes in and will have more comments later but Stupid Song is a fucking masterpiece. “Fuck yes Olivia!” I second your statement 💯

Liv Heskett

Olivia filming the stupid song MV within like a 5 block radius of my childhood apt, my dads apt (ew) , and 2 of my ex bfs apts (double ew) is actually diabolical 😭😂 and I’m convinced she did that on purpose🤨. I don’t know her but it was on purpose 😂😂😂

Liv Heskett

I’m gunna have to collect all my thoughts cause there is too much to say. But just wanna say thank you for being so vulnerable. It’s not easy but it’s very appreciated ❤️

icyguess

Well crap I guess I’m not going to be able to help commenting after almost every song 🫤 those beautiful background vocals you commented on in Honeybee are Conan’s. They are yin to each other’s yang. It sent me. And yes. When you lose someone who your axis spins on everything changes. You weren’t wrong. Sincere hugs to your mom. And to you.

heather

ahhhh my fav album of hers!!

Jee

This album hits too close to home rn. when she announced this album, i had finally experienced the love from someone’s love ive been craving for. then when she released the cure, it turned out to be totally the opposite. this album has completely destroyed me. i’m officially broken :( i did infact knew what his face looks like going….

Diego Acevedo

DARE I SAY ALBUM OF THE YEAR ??!!???!? 🩷🩵🩷🩵

Julian

Cried with you during Less. Thank you for being so open and raw with us all the time, it means a lot!

Orla

Probably a random comment LOL, however I was rewatching Ted Lasso right before the album dropped and here are some quotes from the show I thought of when listening to some songs my first few listens. Will have more to say after watching your reaction probably 😄 “You deserve someone that makes you feel like you’ve been struck by f**king lighting. Don’t you dare settle for fine” - Roy Kent - “You’re a great man, does Jane make you greater?” - Higgins - “My wife is the oxygen that gives me life” - Higgins - “Our deepest fears are like dragons guarding our deepest treasures” - Relke - “When I’m with her the world just feels more interesting” - Coach Beard - “I want to be with her. All her, all the time” - Coach Beard-

Holly Woods

I'm half way though but I just wanted to touch on one thing before I forgot it haha! One, thank you for being vulnerable, I absolutely adore that you've been open and honest in a way that still protects you both. I'm keeping all my faith that things will work out for you both when the timing is right. This was the same with my husband, we were best friends, but the timing was always off, we were too young when we first met in school, we then were either dating other people or life took us on different paths for a while. I believe even though you find your person sometimes we have to experience things first, learn from things and grow into the people were meant to be when we finally get that timing right. You're also so right in people thinking love is simple, sunshine and rainbows. I think of my grandparents generation, back when they married going and often stayed together for life. I think it's because they didn't have the technology we have now. They didn't see these perfect couples and just the positive sides of a relationship all over social media, it wasn't so easy to meet people from all sorts of different places online. They had limited TV. They'd be out at local dances, the movies, walking around the local parks. Back then you worked hard for everything, including eachother. They met, and they worked through the rough times together, weathered the storms. Now it's so easy to just drop something when it gets hard and move onto the next. Right! Back to watching and I'm sending that big hug your way Mr!

Being loved deeply makes you feel the most alive for sure. One of life’s greatest blessing to have a partner that encourages you to feel things fully and allows you to be vulnerable and human. To be allowed to be yourself without reservation or making you feel stupid or like you have to put on a persona. That kind of freedom is priceless. There is also love in being witnessed. It is a pure form of love when you feel seen by another person just because you are. There is an unsaid acceptance and regard when someone is present and stands by you even through your lowest moments. When you’re loved purely for who you are and they accept all faucets of you without trying to change you. It is a silent form of healing for many of us.

“This is probably my worst reaction”—alright… listen here, you floppy-haired hunk! This is easily one of your best videos. 🤣 You let yourself feel it all. What more could we ask for when your feelings are still so raw? I also think you did a fine job of not projecting the specifics of your life onto Olivia’s. Keep in mind that Olivia likely processed all of this long ago, given the time that’s passed since she wrote and recorded this album. Her experience is valid, and so is yours. ❤️ I do think this is her best album sonically and lyrically. There are a number of instant discography classics here. Funnily enough, honeybee is the song that made me the most emotional. I’ve mentioned this before, but I’ve never been in any sort of romantic relationship, so the theme of that song (hopefulness) really resonated with me in what I presume is a rather unique way. I certainly hope to have the opportunity to experience romance one day. Maybe I’ll enjoy it, maybe I’ll find that it’s not for me—but “here’s to hoping.” 💕 (Love songs with a hint of darkness/macabre are my favorites, so I’d absolutely make this my wedding song! 😂) Keep living. Keep loving. Keep wearing sleeveless shirts. You’re doing amazing, sweetie!

icyguess

I made it past Purple without needing to comment, but The Cure and hearing you share killed me dead. You aren’t projecting onto the song, you are using the song to express and heal. That’s what music does. It gives us a frame for unexplainable emotions, things that are hard to find words for. Thank you for doing this for us, when you weren’t feeling like yourself. It’s honestly touching. You are working through your pain right in front of us. ❤️ Brave, Danny. Brave. The Cure is a catharsis. What a gift she gave us.

Hope

me n my gf broke up an hour and a half before the album came out #wlwbreakup im actually not chill #help

This is an album that I feel is the most personal Olivia has ever gotten. All the other albums are so personal, but idk this one feels different. I think it's because she's older and she's grown as an artist and i think this album shows that. I had many things to say, but every time I typed them they never felt right so my very shortened version is this: I love the slower songs, because the emotion and her voice on them are so powerful. I think this reaction was great because it showed the power of music. it showed that music can change lives and perspectives. The fact that you were very open and related to the songs is remarkable and that is a testament not only to Olivia but to you and how much you feel things deeply. And I know it's hard now and I don't know when it'll get better, but find joy in the smaller things even if its for a fleeting minute. And I personally think it shows how human you are and I think that is why this album is great because of what it can make all of us feel (even if what we all are feeling, are different from each other). Love is complicated and sometimes love is messy and confusing and frustrating. But on a lighter note things will get better and it'll take time and maybe things won't work out, but that doesn't mean anything is wrong with the both of you. But i do hope one day things can work itself out because love is a beautiful thing no matter the outcome. My favorite songs are the songs that made me really think about the emotion and lyrics and how beautiful it is: honeybee, cigarette smoke, stupid song and the cure

icyguess

Wow. Wowowowowow. What did Olivia just do????? 🤯 Danny, what a reaction. Honest, vulnerable, authentic and heartbreaking. Don’t hide from your emotions. Face them in whatever little bits you can handle at a time. Olivia kicked you in the ass. She poured into your cracks and let you know you aren’t ok. Which is ok? It may not feel like it but she just pulled you one step closer to managing with your heartache. Only an artist channeling heavenly songs could do that. I only had 4 full albums saved on Spotify. Now I have 5. I hope you know you did not overshare, you did not weigh anybody down. What you did do was not be fake and not try to pretend like you have any answers at all for what is happening to you. This raw, emotional album from Olivia took all of us out. Don’t worry about being strong. Just process. And don’t hide. 💙

You're too harsh on yourself about your reaction. It was brilliant! The whole week was really good, I looked forward to having a video to watch every day and I appreciate you so much for that ❤️ I have just a few thoughts to share I think on the songs. One thing I'd add about the stupid song music video is that to me the ballerina's showcased love and how beautiful it is. However, like Olivia has said in interviews she also wanted to portray love in it's gross/dirty forms. You can see throughout the video the ballerina's have grass stains on their outfits, almost portraying this. On the recurring theme of her insecurities, yeah that's definitely a big hurdle in her life it seems. I always go back to logical on this one. That relationship really seemed traumatic to her: "Brought up the girls you could have instead Said I was too young, I was too soft Can't take a joke, can't get you off" Honeybee is an absolutely devastating song in the context of the album. Absolutely agree with you about that strange genius interpretation at the end of less. I very much see that song the same way as you. I hate to do this one because it was one where you interpreted it happy and different to me 😂but to me expectations isn't actually a happy song. It's almost like the relationship ends in less and then expectations is her deluding herself into thinking she's ok. Going to bars, etc pretending she's fine, and then it just goes back to reality on cigarette smoke which is a gut wrenchingly beautiful closer imo. It's an absolutely beautiful, haunting and devastating album. I absolutely love it.

GabbyG

Cigarette smoke is like accepting things are over, those memories of what you had will fade and you’ll have to move on cause that persons no longer there anymore. It’s like eventually you’ll go back to being strangers and love other people ❤️‍🩹😞

Alfie

Time heals and helps forget those strong feelings you once felt. You’ll learn from your mistakes, both move on and find happiness with your soulmates. Don’t worry about sharing. Your vulnerability helps me and many others and what makes you stand out in a sea of creators. Sending hugs!

Jeffrey Van

Im a tad disappointed you dismissed my way. It was kinda fun hearing her be authoritative.

Jeffrey Van

You made me tear up when you were talking about Begged and then once the song started I saw your pain. I hope good things come your way soon.

Blue

"less" is extraordinary, it makes my heart ache in the best way. thank you for sharing your personal situations and feelings and for being yourself with us. sending you a giant, endless hug❤️

Jeffrey Van

I’ve also never understood the if you love me you’d let me go mentality. That’s just something that person says to make it easier on them

Valentina

Hate seeing you hurt, but I love that you feel safe enough to be vulnerable with us. I had a feeling this album was going to hit you right in the feels. Sending you a big hug 🫂 Relationships are complicated, but love is always worth it. Allow yourself to sit with the pain for a while, feel it fully, and be gentle with yourself. It's going to get better 🩷

Valentina

It really feels like a complete story from start to finish, I deeply love this album!! 😭 And, am I the only one who thinks some of these songs are very OCD/ROCD-coded? A lot of the thoughts and emotions described felt incredibly familiar to me 💔 I can't pick a favorite song just yet, but if I had to name the songs that didn't resonate with me as much, I'd probably say My Way and Purple. Speaking of Purple, it immediately reminded me of Colors by Halsey: "You were red, and you liked me because I was blue. Then you touched me and suddenly I was a lilac sky. Then you decided purple just wasn't for you." I don't know if anyone else made that connection 💜

came from yt been waiting for this! this album was a ROLLERCOASTER of emotions. absolutely beautiful, AOTY!? thank you for being able to cry with us

Liv Heskett

Expectations is maybe my fave songs of hers I was actually laughing listening because it perfectly sums up dating rn. To give examples, “guy with fake job”-literally met a guy who said his job was sports trading on Kalshi…. I wish I was lying. What happened to like being a doctor, mechanic, ups worker?😭😂 “their indecision is painfully unattractive” my friend just went out with a guy who was 38, apolitical, and said he’s still figuring out his relationship goals but that he wanted a girl who was loyal and didn’t want to be with anyone else. The audacity 🙄😂. Loved this album but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to your thoughts and reading everyone’s comments. Just know that your thoughts and feelings are unique (that goes for everyone) so if you are sad while listening to something like this, do not apologize, it’s part of the human experience, I’m sure there are hundreds of people who woke up on release day in a perfect mood with a totally positive mindset, but guess what? Only you are going through these exact feelings and emotions, and that makes what you have to say interesting. Never apologize for expressing yourself! Hope you are taking care of yourself ❤️

Staim Diaz

I would have loved to give you that hug you were hoping for at the beginning of the video. I truly hope things start getting better for you soon. One of the things I love most about life is how music connects us and allows us to learn more and more about people, helping us become more empathetic along the way. Thank you for being vulnerable, for sharing these feelings so openly, and for feeling comfortable enough to be yourself with your community. Love is complicated, life is complicated, but all we can do is stay resilient and trust that the rewards will eventually come. From Colombia, I wish you peace, comfort, and brighter days ahead. I hope you find them very soon. A big hug, u + us = <3

Liv Heskett

My heart was truly breaking for you this video. I want to give you a hug. Was crying with you, grief and heartbreak are two of the worst feelings but they remind us that we have so much capacity for love. Two of the most human things you can experience. Begged has really taken on a new meaning since I started thinking about my dad (sorry ughh gunna get weird). It’s hard to have a narcissistic parent and begging for them to just care about you more than they do themselves, in fact I don’t even want it if it’s not authentic, but like fuck you cause why is it so difficult for you? Mental illness sucks and it’s confusing. I just wish everyone could be loved by those that are supposed to love them unconditionally. ❤️ ok that was my trauma dump for the month I’ll be back next month for the next Lana album 😂

Maya

I love this album even though half of the songs are technically love song they all have this gloom threaded throughout. You can love someone in an unhealthy way and this album sums it up perfectly. 🫶🏽 giving hearts to anyone that needs it 🥹

Abbie

Some thoughts… I love the transition from purple to the cure that line about melting till it all turns black KILLED ME and it was a perfect transition to the sad side of the album I loved how she goes from the song less to in expectations she says “now I ask for more and and more and more” Speaking of expectations IT IS SUCH A BOPPPPP I’m obsessed and getting major material girl vibes from it There’s so much more but overall I love this album so much, thank you for getting vulnerable Danny. Sending you love and healing ❤️‍🩹

Art

great reaction. the latter half of this album may go down to be some of the best closing songs. at least for me. jeez, cigarette smoke was an amazing closer.

Aastha Sharma

I love the sound of this album, she has grown so much and coming into her own as an artist. I am so sorry Danny for what you're going through. I have been in this exact situation before where we loved each other but never got the timing right and couldn't explore what it could be no matter how much we wanted to and it took me a long time to let go of the wondering of all the what ifs and what could have happened. I really hope that you guys are able to work things out but I admire you so much for handling this with so much maturity and patience. Thank you for being so open and vulnerable with us and I am sending you all the love and positive energy and I hope you can change your situation and start living in your new house with renewed energy.

marie

your face when conan’s vocals came on in honeybee was the same as mine 😭 his voice suit hers so well! the way they include each other in their career in subtle ways is so cute. at the wishbone tour, he starts it with “bad idea, right?” playing and he starts his performance after she says “i know i should STOP” and it’s adorable. i love their best friendedness

Mary

Does anyone else get a bit of anxiety from stupid song?

Tori

crying with you through nearly the entire album! I love this album so much already and I have many thoughts I can't yet articulate. It brought me right into my own feelings as I went through a breakup not too long ago that still hurts I am finally coming out of it but its hard its someone I was also friends with first and I wish we could have stayed friends but they're going through it and stopped communicating with me so I am just trying to keep my peace and wish them the best.I love your vulnerablity about your own experiences its so brave to share what you are going through and from my own experience I know that no matter what people say we still have to feel the loss but I am right there with you. I think you deserve a love as beautiful as you and I believe you'll find it with someone just as special at the right time, sending hugs 🤍

Lucky Lavender

Your reaction while ‘less’ was playing 🥹

Trinity Crawford

I love that u+me=<3 captures the childlike feelings when first falling in love. Even down to the wording

Matthew

so excited for this!! First time buying something from patreon

Alice Hatch

I’m SEATED! Stupid Song has me in a chokehold but… they all do. This album is on repeat at my house, in my bed, in my car. It’s so special.

Caleb Marcellus

3 hours is crazy! I just subscribed. I loved all your youtube reactions I had to come watch this early. I'm so exciting for your reaction

forest

seeing Danny cry hurts my heart so much 😭 i just wanna give you the biggest hug omg

Kennedy Underwood

I finally got myself through this entire reaction. It took me a few days I’ve been a little busy, but I’m absolutely in love with this album. The honesty, and vulnerability in the whole thing has me so in love. From start to finish she described feelings I couldn’t even fully describe myself if I tried honestly. The album definitely broke my brain too a bit when I first heard the entire play through of it. It’s a lot of different emotions to work through, knowing Olivia felt that way for so long was the hard part for me. I love the entire album, but this is my ranking of them all 1-13. Stupid Song, Begged, what’s wrong with me, Honeybee, Less, Maggots for brains, purple, drop dead, expectations, cigarette smoke, my way, and then u+me! I love every single track though so this was a hard ranking😩🤭 I have not stopped listening to stupid song, it’s been on repeat since Friday!🔥

Володимир Ткачук

I've read on Threads that this whole album is like the whole failed relationship period. From meeting and getting a crush on "drop dead" to this regretting in "cigarette smoke" And you crying during "less"... it actually broke me. 'Cause I do it too, every time listen to this song. 'Cause I'm living this song right now. That is like the one beautiful common thing about us: crying over relatable songs. And I know that someday I'll move on, but for now it's still "If loving me means letting go and wishing me the best, Then I guess I wish, I wish, I wish you'd love me less..."

Matt

Wishing you all the best Juke! When it is the right time and the right person, it will all feel almost too easy. I found my person 10 years ago, and it rarely feels like work. You seem like a great guy, so I have no doubt everything will fall into place in the end. Hang in there! Also, your reaction was great. Don't be so hard on yourself. And i'm not just saying that to make you feel better. It really was a great one. The best reactions are where you all are clearly moved by the music, whether that be seeing a reactor's face light up, or getting emotional. Feelings are good! It means you're alive!

indizzl

You're such an amazing human being, thanks for being so heartfelt and vulnerable with us ❣️ I feel like I can relate because I've been the one in the relationship that has had conflicting feelings about receiving love, and feeling unworthy of it. For me the journey to self-love was a path I had to go alone. I was able to learn so much about myself and finally get rid of negative thought patterns. Now I just hope to find true love again someday, until then I'll keep it pushing 😊But guys like you give me hope that there are amazing emotionally in-tune men out there.

Savannah Marrero

I know I am writing this comment a long time after the album came out but I’ve been thinking about this album a lot. I feel like with listening to these albums and type of song my brain always jumps to thinking of both sides of the relationship an artist is describing (because I’m such a big empathetic it’s a problem 😂😂) . I’ve seen people say that insiders in Louis’s and Olivia’s friend group said that Louis apparently got ‘spooked’ by how how fast their relationship was going which matches with the fact that in Olivia’s song about him So American she says “I apologize if it’s a little to much just a little to soon” and Olivia mentioning several times that she feels like she jumps into relationships fast and falls in love fast and hard and I think it could be possible that Louis felt like he had an obligation to make it a more serious relationship possibly leading to marriage and he maybe wasn’t ready for that. Which I don’t think that’s necessarily a reason the end a relationship because I think that can be talked about through communicating with each other. But I think a lot of these feeling could have lead to all of these emotions that she felt through this relationship… ANYWAY obviously we don’t know anything for sure that just me thinking out loud 😃😃

diy cyfi

This album gets so much more tragic when you realize Louis was originally groomed by the women that Olivia was talking about in my way. I believe they originally started dating when he was around 16-17 and the women was 25.
