this is so stunning. reminds me of those songs that your mom, or grandma would sing gently to you as a baby, this is so beautiful. i’m in tears, laufey is painfully underrated.
Yes, this is the feeling I get from this!! I found it hard to explain, but this is exactly it. It's both comforting, like a lullaby, and saddening because, as an adult now, lullabies are no longer sung to me. Very bittersweet.
@@georgiacrossley2274 Same, it's beautiful to listen to, I guess I'm one of the few teenagers that still appreciates this sort of music instead of mainstream pop😍
@@jamesh3051 Many actually appreciate it our age, mainstream pop is just targeted for our age groups so it gives a large impression of the music we listen to when in reality it is much more diverse. I agree although mainstream pop isn’t something to be looked down on, if that’s what people like then that’s fine by me haha
Magnolia She could have anyone in the world Floats around town in a golden gown Born in a castle on a cloud Magnolia Prettiest girl that I know Stars in her eyes Handpicked from the skies Beautiful soul How can I compete with her? Perfection is the only word I think of when I think of Magnolia She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her I wish I could be Magnolia Magnolia She can move oceans and rivers with ease A word from her lips Her sirens kiss Will send you straight into abyss Magnolia I wish she'd give her secrets away Enchants everyone And I think it'd be fun To be like her someday But I cannot compete with her Perfection is the only word I think of when I think of Magnolia She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her I wish I could be Magnolia Magnolia Laufey Lin
I had a friend who passed away who was called Meg, and we planted a “Meg”nolia tree in her honor. She was the prettiest girl I knew and this song makes me think of her. Beautiful soul. Enchants everyone I think it’d be fun to be her someday. But I cannot compete with her, perfection is the only word, I think of when I think of Magnolia.
I played this song for a clarinet solo today! A lot of my friends and teachers said it was a gorgeous song, and I picked it because I thought it was the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. Thank you Laufey for this masterpiece :)
im tearing up too bc my name is magnolia and I’ve been called so many insults at school but this song makes me feel a sense of calm and makes me feel pretty😭🫶
0:39-1:12 "how can i compete with her ? perfection is the only word that i think of when i think of magnoliaaa!! she doesnt know that the world is turning just for her.. i wish i could be magnolia."
You know a song is wonderful if it makes you dream. I felt like I was seeing Magnolia in a garden playing by herself while I was calmly admiring her next to Laufey. I love when a song is able to pull you into a world and I think this is Laufey’s secret talent. Its so lovely and admirable, this song is my musical Magnolia.
I think this is what the modern music industry needs right now, meaningful lyrics portrayed through a beautiful melody. No drugs, no hate, just plain and simple singing
Keep in mind that you’re Magnolia to someone out there, and you can’t say “nOoOoOo i CaN’t Be i’M UgLy” yes you can, you don’t know that the world is turning just for you
This both comforts me and makes me want to cry. It's rather inexplicable.... It's such a beautiful song, yet the longing is so strong, and it tugs at my heartstrings. I feel hopeless.... and yet, I feel I'll be okay, too.
Just lost my bff last week...she is a replica of your very song as far as my love for her as a friend us concerned...I'm in no way threatened by her but I take pride in myself having to be a part of her lifetime full of love and happiness...thanks for you beautiful song that will always remind me of her...BTW, her name is Athena and she lived up to her name,too
literally my favourite underrated song. the metaphors and description the lyrics exemplifies along with the wistful, gentle tune that is not music to my ears, but 𝓶𝓾𝓼𝓲𝓬 to my ears. literally love you so much laufey, u deserve so much more attention!! xoxo
literally every girl in my life is a magnolia and im just the branches. this is one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard, thank u laufey for bringing me into the jazz industry, u are a beautiful magnolia
The absolute beautiful display of poetry in your songs is just awe inspiring. We will support you throughout. Never forget the feeling you give your fans
The creation of harmonies instantly captures me from all the noises from everyday lives... What a magic... This tenderness is just super healing...🍃✨🤍🙏🏻
I can tell you've taken an extraordinarily amount of time studying artists, developing musicality and finding your voice. Just wanted to say it's awe inspiring. Keep up the good work it's definitely paying off!
Whenever i listen to Magnolia, I'd like think it's about a one-sided sapphic love story. Instead of singing "i wish i could *be* Magnolia", I'd replace it with *love* 💘
There's this really awesome girl I know and I've admired her since freshman year and we've become pretty good friends since then, (I'm a junior now) she's one of the sweetest, most real people I've ever met, and she knows what she wants, is head-on with her goals but is a human being with lost of love to give, not to mention shes gorgeous and her style is immaculate. I have such a platonic admiration and love for her as a person and I think of her when I hear this song not in a bad way like jealousy but in a way like "Wow I can't believe people like you exist and are so close to my age".
I hope you know I cried from first play 😭❤️ My magnolia is literally so perfect that everytime you say "How can I compete with her" I shed a tear cuz I feel like I can't get on their level, and every time you say "it'd be fun someday to be like her" I smile cuz I see myself becoming more like them little by little haha I just love it, thank you ❤️
Easily my favorite song off from the EP it’s amazing, it’s dreamy and it’s just very smooth. I’m glad I followed you after listening to one of your tiktoks
It's a beautiful day today and I suddenly came across your latest song... Soooooo Beautiful a song! Such A Perfect day with the unforgettable melodies! Thank you Laufey!
Whenever I listen to this song...it just reminds me of my grandmother and how she takes good care of me....I close my eyes and all I could see is her smiling face cradling me. Gosh I love this song

Lullabies with laufey
Yes, this is the feeling I get from this!! I found it hard to explain, but this is exactly it. It's both comforting, like a lullaby, and saddening because, as an adult now, lullabies are no longer sung to me. Very bittersweet.
She's a reincarnation of the best of 40s jazz.
omg i had the same thought!!! i wanna hold my future baby daughter while i lip sync this song to her.
Well now I have to have a child
Laufey is truly one of the great upcoming artists of a generation.
I’m so happy to say I’ve been here since the start

Now she is🤭
Magnolia
She could have anyone in the world
Floats around town in a golden gown
Born in a castle on a cloud
Magnolia
Prettiest girl that I know
Stars in her eyes
Handpicked from the skies
Beautiful soul
How can I compete with her?
Perfection is the only word
I think of when I think of Magnolia
She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her
I wish I could be Magnolia
Magnolia
She can move oceans and rivers with ease
A word from her lips
Her sirens kiss
Will send you straight into abyss
Magnolia
I wish she'd give her secrets away
Enchants everyone
And I think it'd be fun
To be like her someday
But I cannot compete with her
Perfection is the only word
I think of when I think of Magnolia
She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her
I wish I could be Magnolia Magnolia

Good job, making the light at the end of the tunnel
this song gives me major Heather vibes but more dainty and endearing and I love it
YES! this should have the same popularity as Heather
@@user-km9bx3gf3z totally! her songwriting is immaculate!
yes, it's so beautiful and whimsical
This is going to be a jazz standard in 10 years.
lets make it happen
Transcribing the chords as I read the comments lol
Frrr
Very True 😭🤧
Aye. Time to revive my jazz special interest.
Music I listen to when the homies aren't around
Same, Internet Dinosaur :)
homies are missing out on so much bro
or "Music I listen to when the real home are around"
This music is best shared with the homies
True and hilarious!
This is like a reverse lullaby, instead of trying to send you to sleep, it keeps you in dreamland
"stars in her eyes, hand picked from the sky"
adding THAT to my tattoo list
FR SUCH A BEAUTIFUL LINE
I have a baby cousin named magnolia and I put this song for her and she smiles calms down and sleeps thank you laufy
thats so cute
Aww thank you for likes

"how can i compete with her ?

when i think of
magnoliaaa!!
she doesnt know that the world is turning just for her..

Transportive, magical, sorrowful - it's a unique kind of tragedy when someone isn't able to recognize their own individual beauty.
Damn, this sounded so beautiful i could loop this for just 72 years.

If I could sing I would sing this to my gf

YASSS KPOP STAN IN LAUFEYS COMMENT SECTIONN
guess what she just won a grammy
This is sooo beautiful, I loved when she uploaded the voice memo, I'm glad she included this song in the ep
This both comforts me and makes me want to cry. It's rather inexplicable.... It's such a beautiful song, yet the longing is so strong, and it tugs at my heartstrings. I feel hopeless.... and yet, I feel I'll be okay, too.
Leaving this comment so whenever someone likes it I come back to this masterpiece
i want to sing this song as lullaby for my daughter someday
same
I thought 'Best Friend' would be a whole year trauma song, It has a rival now. 😍😍 Love your songs, Laufey!
Laufey + Magnolia = Laufey

This song makes me cry.
One of my fav Laufey song for sure👯♀️💌✨
Laufey, this song is so... tender and sweet. Thanks for publishing it. It is BEAUTIFUL
“How can i compete with her perfection is the only word?”.....
I need a playlist of songs like this ASAP.
Also, lesbian anthem?? 👀
Im so happy my sister showed this song to me. I can now peacefully spend my afternoons with this playing in the background

DAMN this is so moving for lack of a better word. Gorgeous and flowy, amazing job!
This is so gentle and sweet.
I love music that makes me fall in love with people I've never met or that might not even exist.
This is so beautiful. I hope you go far in your singing career because the world needs more original artists like you, Laufey!
The tension and release is soooo nice
My friend said this song reminded her of me 😭💜
