I just have to say…👏👏. I can’t even imagine how many hours of thinking, feeling, planning, executing, editing and refining this video took. Amazing to give each type some love.
Most ENTP song is obviusly ”it’s tough to be a god” by Sir Elton John.
So incredebly relatable.
Hahahahhahahahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahaha this is already on my list for "16 Personalities as Songs From Musicals"
Hahaha, I actually liked her choice initially I thought the ENTJ song would have been better for ENTP but after listening to the song (which seemed really intuitive to me personally and it was hysterical to hear her describe it as esoteric without coming to a point)
But I realized it actually captures a sort of little known aspect of the ENTP ( generally an optimistic type) I like to call the dark before the dawn moment. Because the ENTP is so internally logical but also exploring the emotional world which is so often marked by senseless violence and injustice (kinda felt like there was a BLM reference in there) it causes a lot of turmoil and discomfort- especially because even when motivated ENTPs can feel paralyzed by the various options and not know how to help. To me this song captures that feeling of wanting to hide away and not needing to make those hard calls but finding the strength to do it anyway (once the Si engine is full again and the Fe is charged from being on stage)
But that’s just how I heard it!
Whereas I chose “Welcome to the Internet” by Bo Burnham for ENTPs. 😈
@@nerysghemor5781 for all xNTP
This was so fun, I’d love it if you did this again! Partially because I love having an assignment to do, especially one where I can take many notes.
ISTJ = I Strive to Jot
INTP = I Take Notes Poorly
Ok cool. But I'm still trying to understand how one could "love" having an assignment. Like, WHAT??! (Don't get me wrong, it was fun trying to figure out what song went to what type, but as soon as it becomes an assignment I'm just gonna yeet outta here. 😅)
@@claytonpayne4346 It's an IxTJ thing. We wouldn't understand. (My INTJ wife also likes school-type settings and styles, although she rarely liked an actual school.)
@@claytonpayne4346 Well, I think it depends on which part of the concept of an assignment you focus on. I (ISTJ) like to have clearly defined tasks with specific goals and objectives. This provides the platform to achieve something quantifiable and I can ignore the part where it is a "must do" in most cases (especially since this was optional :) ).
@@gh8076 100% true
Cat’s in the cradle made me SOB! Because it Reminds me of my parents, except I’m still a teenager, and I’m glad I’m aware of it and I’m an enfp so I have different priorities
Also you got ENFP’s so spot on that I feel called out with the duality of self and it wasn’t something I was previously aware of, that I now recognise is true for me! I just knew from the “I was born in the arms of imaginary friends of imaginary friends” because the amount of times I have wrote about imaginary friends in poems and songs is a lot!
I am an ISTP, and I love instrumental music (which could account for the fact I mostly listen to movie themes) (especially star wars) so I think the song you chose was a really good choice.
Yes, the ISTP has a decent chance of not writing lyrics at all. And if they do, they might be closer to recitations of fact than anything insightful. I really, really like "Breadcrumb Trail" by Slint for ISTPs.
I mean yeah as an istp who just loves metal and heavier rock I don’t care about lyrics just the sound
My husband said that the song for ISTP should have been Fuel by Metallica. Which I had never heard before. Being married for 14 years and I'm still learning more about him. Which actually proves Kristin's point in picking "I will possess your heart." "Like a language you don't know.. just yet."
As an ISTP I like instrumental music too (specially metal and jazz) but tbh my Ti much prefer when the song has intelligent lyrics, like metaphors, word-plays, sarcasm, philosophy or just any kind of criticism. I like the song she chose but I think “Things have changed” by Bob Dylan would be the perfect Ti-Se song, I seriously doubt that anything can represent ISTP better than those lyrics.
ISTP: I have a better suggestion: Falling in Reverse, Popular Monster
i've seen a few "16 personalites as music" type of vids i was expecting a short vid as they usually are but i didnt though you go this well into details and telling us why do you think the chosen song is perfect match, a huge thank you for this
ENTJ here, I was half expecting something really metal or heavy considering how many of us seem to like classical and metal. I do really like the song you picked though, vocals that run through each other and strong drums are something that i can vibe with!
Same! All my ENTJ friends love heavy metal. An interesting video would be the music genres that types tend to enjoy.
Try out some marches. Or metal rock. I(also ENTJ) really liked it, so, I suppose, you too will find it interesting
Hey youtube commenters! I just wanted to mention again that Kristin has a patreon goal that when she hits 500 patrons she's going to make "16 Personalities In A Musical." Let's make that happen!
Even if you can't afford the lowest patreon tier, I'm sure a custom pledge of any size would help her achieve her goal of becoming a full time content creator. Even a dollar would help! So, if her content entertains you, or enriches your life in some way, please consider donating!
I love the song you picked for INFJ. One song I have related to is Learning to Fly by Pink Floyd. On the surface it’s just a song about learning to fly a plane, but when you look deeper it’s about learning to be human, which feels very INFJ to me :)
Interesting choice for the INTP. Yes, it's true that we are more prone to nihilism and atheism than most types. I suppose that's because our relentless drive for the truth and understanding makes us unable to really resonate with anything personally unless we feel like it makes sense. At a personal level, this is what drove me to philosophy and, far from making me a nihilistic atheist, it also led me to an incredibly sure belief in the Christian God because, all of a sudden, what I was told to accept on faith before now made logical sense to me and seemed to be the most reasonable conclusion to believe in.
In my own not so humble opinion, I actually think that "Epitaph," by King Crimson is a great INTP song because of how it deals with a sense of confusion and despondency at the human condition. It appeals to the wisdom of the past and wonders why it's all being ignored, a very Ti-Si trait. The lyrics aren't primarily dealing with things that are personal to the singer but are abstract references to real things, very Ne like. Even the song itself is quite slow and dour, like a funeral march; and the singer sounds incredibly bitter and sad throughout. There is a certain tone of bitterness and cynicism in the entire song that us Ti types can be prone to in our darker moments. And, to top it all off, the chorus always ends with a line saying that he'll be crying at our fates: a strong indication towards that pesky inferior Fe. We INTPs typically just wish that everyone would get along and don't understand why people are so eager in the rush to hurt and kill each other. One of the most overlooked things about the INTP is that we often try to build a logical system for ethics in order to know how ourselves and others ought to behave in the world.
Probably my favorite song choice for the INTP so far. I picked mine solely based in musical content (Meshuggah - Dancers to a Discordant System) rather than lyrical content because I don't ever really relate to or analyze lyrics, but complex music theory concepts are my jam. I had a preference off the bat for the INTP song to be proggy, and your choice of King Crimson DEFINITELY fills that role, and I like your reason for choosing those lyrics based on your description of them, what with lack of personal attatchment to things (sentimental things, I guess).
"confusion will be my epitaph" is a line that any INTP will relate to. Most of us will cover it up instinctually, but we all relate to that sentiment.
I'm really curious tbh - were you raised Christian? I also love the song you picked! I'm an INFJ but resonated a lot with her description of the INTP struggle with faith.
@@bbhdd6181 I wouldn't say I was raised Christian since there was a mix of views in my family, including Christian. Everyone was encouraged to come to their own conclusions. I would say that I became a Christian around the age of 14 or so after reading the gospels and then a ton of books on apologetics, which then began my lifelong love of philosophy.
Glad you liked the song. Always nice to meet an INFJ.
I am thankful to find another INTP who is also a Christian!
Idk why but I started crying at the ENFP part. It made me feel so validated. Thank you!
as an enfp- SAME WHY WAS I BAWLING and how did she read my deepest darkest thoughts
Same.
ME TOO, like there's times where I've worried about people getting too attached to me in this romantic online texting sense because I didn't want to be held down and wasn't fully into it
@@piggiehudzon6347SAME OMFG 💀
Yes, "Cat's in the Cradle" is the epitome of an ISTJ theme song! My dad is this type, and he happens to adore this tune.
This is also true of my ISTJ Dad 😂
My dad's ISTJ as well. My mom always said this was his song.
Jay Pritchett
while I do like the choice for INFP, I think another AMAZING choice would be Soft Universe by AURORA. she’s a fellow INFP and honestly like all of her songs just really speak to the sensitivity and care of the type. but I think this song in particular really shows off a lot of Fi and a lot of the abstract language kinda reminds me of how my Ne leads me off into daydreams and such. the leading lines “there’s ice in my water, and when I drink it cuts my tongue” followed by “there’s glass on the playground, it cuts my skin when I run” reminds me a lot of how the world can feel quite abrasive and really not built for an INFP along with like a slight disdain for mundanity. then the chorus “speak to me… with love in your words, make for me… a soft universe” pulls me again to the want for a softer and more sensitive and loving world. this may be kinda tainted by my own Fi values but a lot of other INFP I know kinda have similar sentiments for just wishing the world was a kinder place in a lot of ways.
equally I think Daydreamer by AURORA is another perfect song, and they both feel SO incredibly fitting that I had to put both in here. it’s really just a song lamenting about the fact that the world expects us to push away our dreams, our childlike nature, our curiosity and to trade it for for a more mundane existence. the chorus “and we become nighttime dreamers, street walkers, small talkers. when we should be daydreamers, moon walkers, and dream talkers” it really just kinda plays into FiNe and kinda a wish that more people saw the magic in the world. there’s a lot of other supporting lyrics in both songs but those were kinda the main points I thought of. I’d highly suggest checking out at least these songs but a lot of AURORA’s other music is fantastic as well, she’s definitely one of my fav artists.
Ooooh! I LOVE Aurora and her songs and I do think she's an INFP too (I myself am not one though as an artist I do envy your out-of-the-world creativity and I relate to your sensitivity and values in my own way). And I appreciate your analysis of this song. I don't remember listening t it yet.
Is she officially typed? Or is this your opinion? Out of curiosity, if it s your typing, why/how did you come up with it?
I still consider myself relatively new to MBTI so I always find it interesting how people come up with typing others (including fictional characters).
@@elisa4620 if you listen to her music, hear her talk, hear her views on the world, her mannerisms, her insights into things. It all just SCREAMS INFP and like I see a lot of myself reflected in her. I feel like if I had grown up in a more nurturing environment I would have turned out quite similar to her if I'm being honest. she's like an INFP minus the fear and self-doubt that often gets drilled into you when you're young. but anyways, most all of her language is DRENCHED in Fi and she always just expresses what she's thinking or feeling even if it might make people a bit uncomfortable (very confident Fi). And she portrays a lot more of the dreamy and abstract conceptual thinking that an INFP would have that makes me think she isn't an ISFP, and tends to seem less in the moment and more off in another place. plus I tend to notice that most ISFP tend to make music more to express themselves whereas INFP tend to have more of a message behind it? could just be bias in the sample I have but that tends to be a pattern that I've noticed.
I think she’s an ENFP but defo an INFP vibe and Fi-icon 💗
@@SuperTank121212 I very much could be wrong in my typing but I’m curious because I want to hear your reasoning. she def comes off to me as having higher Si than Te, and it seems like her values and her sense of self comes first beyond the Ne
YESS!! coming from a fellow INFP AND warrior and weirdo, i can confirm that both these songs definitely capture thoughts and feelings of INFPs. that makes me so happy to see this comment! AURORA is my inspiration
As an ISTJ I am speechless after Cat’s in the cradle, really, great job!
Btw after listening to all the songs in the playlist, you DO have a good music taste
Kristin, I just have to say thank you for introducing me to the song “the Grey.” I hadn’t heard it before, and it’s not the type of genre I usually go for (the song you did pick for my type is actually totally my usual taste), but OH MY GOODNESS the lyrics of “the Grey” just hit so hard, I nearly teared up listening to it the first time. I needed this right now, you have no idea. It’s funny, you picked it for isfj’s (my letter opposite), but I feel it in my marrow. Oddly enough, I’ve never had my self reflected back to me in a way that made me feel as seen as this song did. Maybe it’s because my reflection, when flipped upside down, is an isfj, so to speak. Anyways, yeah, thank you for this :) All the love from my entp heart 🫀
I'm so so glad! It is such a wholesome song with a great message 😁 Thanks for the comment!
As an ENTJ, I’d say Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries fits us uniquely well. Either that or Shostakovich’s Symphony no. 7 “Leningrad”. More boldly, perhaps the Prelude to Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde is apt as well-it’s endlessly complex and tightly woven by an intense, all-encompassing emotional longing. In other words, perhaps just what one might find peering deep into the psyche of an ENTJ or INTJ.
Thumbs up to mention of Shostakovich!
I'm an INTJ with Ride of the Valkryies as my ringtone, lol...of course the vibe is just the stereotype of Valkyries...Valkyries didn't fight, they merely collected the souls of the heroes...collecting souls...sounds very INTJ ish lol
Completely correct. Paradoxically, I just wrote a message suggesting "Ride of the Valkyries" by Wagner, who was himself another ENTJ (like me) - and not because of what anyone says (which also yes), but because I have corroborated it with an exhaustive study of Wagner -. 😉
Although perhaps, the most correct thing would be to quote the complete work : The Ring of the Nibelung.
What happens is that, as usual, it may be too overwhelming…. 🙄🤣
Decent song selection for INTP (I enjoyed every song suggested.). However I think it focuses on something that isn't that important to an INTP. It's looking at the consequences of over analysis, when it's the process of playing with the idea that is central. There is a reason why Ti is so important, and why it gets in the way of accepting a simplified conception of god. Having said that, I think Lateralus by Tool always felt like a good fit for the type. The song examines the process of exploring an idea, playing with a concept, letting an idea build and expand. Then the song examines how crippling to that process fixating on it can be. To over think and over analyze you kill the true ability to actually understand the idea you are playing with.
Add to the lyrics the song's structure and building complexity reinforces the idea. The fact the beat is based around the Fibonacci sequence a numerical pattern omnipresent all throughout nature. Yet isn't limited to it, the rational interwoven with the imaginative. The structure and rigidity of the patterns of the natural world giving a framework with which to expand and grow creatively also seems apropos. There is something about the song in it's totality, the summation of it's parts that speaks to what it means to be intellectually curious and to play with an idea without fixating on it. Which I think could be argued is central to the INTP experience.
Your selection plays with the idea that rationality leads to nihilism, and often the most appropriate means of dealing with that is distraction. The pain of meaninglessness isn't there because something shiny is flashed in front of my face and I'm able to disappear in the moment. Your song selection is a critique on behaviour and a common tactic used to deal with existential dread. Lateralus is an artisitic representation of the process of exploring an idea. The experience, the excitement, the novelty of the process of exploring an idea. Often times when the process is over used , you end up with nihilism as a common destination. Reason is very good at breaking things down or error checking, but the process itself is exhilarating and uplifting. Like flashing images of reality all of them a little bit off, but with each one holding an outline of the truth. They're then moved so fast that the oulines begin to fuse together into the shape of what is real underneath.
Gronlandic is an observation of the seeming final destination, or the trap that many overly rational people fall into. The destination isn't really that important to most INTP I don't think. Lateralus looks at the process, and hints at important philosophical principles for avoiding the pitfalls of over thinking, while simultaneously over thinking. (Using the Fibonacci sequence as a rythmic to build the song around, it plays with both sides very Ne.) Sorry for the length if you read this, your videos are always entertaining and think you for making them.
Definitely Lateralus is better fit in any and all categories.
i think it's funny that the only song i knew on the list was "Some Nights", and that's the one assigned to my type. It just so happens to be one of my favorites. Spot on ENTJ kristin, also you have a great music taste :)
Well I have to admit that the song you choose for ENTJs really works. As stated in the lyrics, I never thought that anyone would actually understand and consider that existential crisis I deal with all the time, but here you are hitting right!
INFP and I've always identified heavily with XTC's "Wrapped in Grey." "Awaken you dreamers/Adrift in your beds/Balloons and streamers decorate the inside of your heads/Please let some out/Do it today/But don't let the loveless ones sell you a world wrapped in grey."
I'm friends with an ESTJ who identifies heavily with XTC's "Earn Enough for Us."
@@restlessmosaic Ooh, nice one.
I love 'Wrapped in Grey'! One of my favourite XTC songs!
(INTP -- but I totally associate it with an INFP or even ISFP view of the world!)
ENTP here. My favorite XTC song is Generals and Majors. "Generals and Majors always seem so unhappy 'less they got a war ..."
as an INFP the one i've connected with the most is "fish in a birdcage" and honestly if you're a fan of music, at all, i highly recommend it
Hah, I like "Little Dark Age" for ENTP. It's actually a pretty clear song, especially when you understand how Ne + Ti grapples with emotions. See, what's going on here is that Ne is trying to...distract, might be the best word for it...from the song's inner emotional turmoil. But the key lyric for understanding this song is this one:
"I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange"
They're telling you the emotion they're trying to make sense of, and that they can't make sense of it, right here. They also keep circling back to it. That's quite important! They're struggling to process it. It's like an anchor that's holding Ne down. They're pushing against it, but can't achieve liftoff. Oof mixed metaphors. Oh well, Shakespeare mixed his metaphors too...Anyhoo, what was I saying? Oh yeah, when I'm stuck in a loop and can't work my way out of something I tend to return to a controlling image and then work on a new approach from there. So that's quite NTPish, I think.
As far as "I Will Possess Your Heart" by DCfC? Lolno. Way too controlling. Way better for ISTPs is "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails methinks. I've long remarked on how it's pretty on the nose of how Ti struggles to understand and process emotions:
"I broke apart my insides
(Help me) I've got no soul to tell
(Help me) the only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself"
The juxtaposition with the earthy lyrics is very on the nose for how ISTP Ti deals with their apperception of the world, I think.
"My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God"
...as far as my own type? Dunno actually. Does that matter?
Tbh, I always associated The National Anthem by Radiohead or Song 2 by Blur with ISTPs (coming from an ISTP)
I'm an ISTP and I liked 'I will possess your heart' because the first time I listened to it I just forgot about the lyrics and liked how it sounded
what type are you? I thought you were an entp
@@lucasgoncalves7774 Song 2 is so great!!
Keane... I never really explored their music. I love "Everybody's changing" though. Atlantic: I gave it a listen, and I must say, it touched me deeply. Especially because I have been going through some shite with someone (Which is healing now), so I sent them this piece, which they loved too (I'm an INFP, he is an INFJ). I will start exploring their stuff more. So thank you for this
The INFP's song is my favorite among the list (and one of my favorites in general, nice to know you love it too! So underrated behind "somewhere only we know"). I actually hoped it belonged to the INFJ because of that 🙃 But I guess our sister type can enjoy sometimes too 😆
I am so happy to see two Keane songs on your playlist! The songwriter for Keane is INFP (as far as I can tell) so it's no surprise Atlantic was on your list. As I was watching your video I was admiring how easily you put into words your feelings and rationale for picking each song, wishing I could do that too. It felt like you were reading my mind when for the INFJ you mentioned that struggle to put our ideas out into the sensory world. Well done!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Kristin: the song for INTJs is ‘where evil grows’
Me, an INTJ: excuse me ma’am what kind of stereotypical jabber is this?? we are not ‘evil’!
Kristin: I’ll stop you right there before you assume I’m calling INTJs evil-
Me: TOO LATE KRISTIN ASSUMPTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE
Why do people think we're evil? It's like thinking Buffy's evil 'cause she's got this job killing vampires- oh, and you're all welcome for the dead vampires.....(smh). If I was going to pick an INTJ song it would be 'Sway' by the Rolling Stones from fifty years ago, with an eighty year old guitar riff in it, because it's not like any of the big questions or problems ever change. Print the lyric sheet in Chaucer's english with gold illumination to make it better still...
I agree. Also, this song -> My Little Box by John Frizzell
Today was such a weird day. This video feels like a hug. Thank you for finding such a soothing and relatable song for us🤍 -ISFJ
thank you for giving my Ni every abstract thing to latch onto !! I struggle to understand several of the types and this really helps.
this was fun, and I also loved listening to Spotify's radio station based on the playlist. It's a jam, and a lot of the songs that came up seemed very type representative too. E.g. You're Dead by Norma Tanega has strong ENTJ vibes for me. Planning out your life, trying to avoid getting tangled up with emotions, distrusting the world but finally selling out just to get by.
(for the record, 'If you could read my mind' makes PERFECT sense to me, but no, there's no way I could explain it.)
I love this video. It's so amazing seeing the way you don't only match each type to the lyrics, but you go further and feel out the vibe for each type in the music. You're really in touch with stuff like this, it's so amazing to see the effort you've put in too.
Love
An INFP ❤️
ESTJ song is spot on! I couldn't sleep last night! Got up at 3:30am. Why? I knew I still had to check yesterdays homeschooling work for my son... plus my dog had a BIG new vet visit and I hadn't printed out and filled out the paperwork yet! Hence, "Pressure"... I THRIVE under pressure! Got up.. worked HARD like a machine!
Massive Keane fan here! So glad my favorite MBTI youtuber also loves them! I loved Sovereign Light Cafe so much I went to visit it in person in Bexhill (when I used to live in the UK) and visited ALL the places mentioned in the song too!
Oof. Your analysis of the ENFP song really hits home. It's basically the exact reason I broke up my last relationship a year ago and why I'm watching this video on a bed in a hostel on my lone journey that I couldn't wait to go on while I was with her.
What an amazing video! I love how this helps to clarify so much about functions as you talk through each of the songs and give real world application.
Okay, the infj song encapsulates me immaculately. I felt my heart burning an my eyes welling up when you said, "That experience of having this really rich, abstract interior life of, like, aaalll of these possible visions that are sooo nuanced in how they could portray and the subject that they are so attached to, it probably can be really frustrating when they don't have adequate words to convey these ideas and visions to other people," especially after you emphasised on 'so' and 'all,' which implied how you do understand how overwhelmingly agitating it can get when we cannot splash the colours of our mind on the canvas as exuberantly as they exist in our imagination.
The way the lyricist described their inner world with terms like "in a castle dark or in a fortress strong" as if it were some fantasy novel is precisely the aura one would feel if they were to catch a glimpse into the images that flash in our minds and read a line or two of the tales that our minds unravel.
The degree if hardwork and thought it must have taken to produce this video is apparent. I commend you for being able to put your heart and soul into this youtube channel with such dedication. Thank you.
This is my favorite Dear Kristin video. Great music. Very thoughtful (omg so thoughtful). So challenging to do this! Thank you
Really liked your video Kristin! Loved how you mixed mbti with music, it would be great to see more videos like this (eg : mbti as music genres, or mbti and music preferences) Cheers! :)
This was awesome! Even though I don't know most of the songs you mentioned here (I'll admit my knowledge of Keane is limited to "Somewhere Only We Know", which almost made this INFP cry- and I don't cry often. So I'm anxious to hear "Atlantic"!) I loved hearing the depth of thought you went into for each of these.
Pretty much the only guess I got right was "The Nights" for ESFPs! I love your explanations for your choices.
freaked out when i clicked on the playlist and it was FULL of my fave songs! the some nights album is all time top, ive never vibed so much with an album ever. sadly im not an entj (istp i think) but the Ni just hits deep. Also love DCFC. Side note: I spent some months in a coastal UK town near Bexhill a couple years ago. Without knowing what Sovereign Light Cafe was about, it always reminded me of places like Brighton and Hastings and their boardwalks. Crazy how good he is at painting a picture
Keane 👌👌 No one like 'em!
Loving all the effort you pulled for this video 💓 I will definitely look up all the songs. That wild Se appearing in the grass though 😂
-INFJ
37:20, putting actual stars in your eyes when talking like your younger starry-eyed self made me chuckle.
Good job Kristen.
I was far too invested in enjoying the music to actually place any other types than my own, so a solid 1/16 points for me :)
So many new good songs just discovered. Thank you! This was a whole lot more in depth than expected.
This is a great video! I've never heard of the songs you've included in the video hehe but you explained it all well that I had to check them out :D I'm an INTP btw the song was on point
I looved this so much!! Especially this idea of mixing songs and mbti! Can you do a video series of creating playlists for every personality? I would love that, thank you!!!
This is awesome... excellent job Kristin
This episode is my jam. That being said, I was nervous about what you would pick for the INFJ because I was afraid it would be something like "Every Breath You Take". Give us some credit, most of us are not that creepy.
I was gobsmacked by your choice because I love Gordon Lightfoot's song, and I sing it on repeat when I want to imagine what my parents' felt during their divorce. Read into that as you will.
For me, my INFJ theme song will always be "Walls" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
Added Walls to my “parked for future playlists” playlist holding zone for good songs without a playlist home yet, thanks.
I'm an INFJ and I'm glad to be introduced to the song you chose. I recently was trying to explain to a friend of mine how I feel, oddly enough, I was using some of the same metaphors, like feeling like a ghost, or the line "I'm just tryin' to understand the feelings that you lack." Although the song sounds as though it was inspired by a failing/failed romantic relationship, it really eerily resonated with me. Great choice.
Great video Kristin! It was a lot of fun listening to this playlist and guessing the types! This made me listen to music in a different way than I normally do, which was very cool! It made me see music from a different point of view.
And as an INFJ, I thought your description of the INFJ here was incredible! And I liked your reasoning behind picking "If you could read my mind".
This was such a nice video, and thank you so much for introducing me to several new songs. I love the hidden meanings and metaphors in the INFJ song, and I can tell that you thought a lot about it. I especially related to the ghost in the wishing well metaphor and understood it (or at least the emotion behind it) immediately. It was kinda funny to hear you be at a loss at what it meant though when it was somewhat obvious to me. Thank you for looking at songs out of your comfort zone, and I think you did an amazing job with this.
Always ready to check out your content and smile at your amazing energy 😊 thank you for making my day better, I'm definitely adding all of these songs to my playlists
"If You Could Read My Mind" lyrics remind me of some of my old poetry. The metaphors only really make sense to the person writing it, and even then it's not 100% sensical.
[INFJ]
Love this! Such a fun way to reflect on the types
How imaginative you are to be able to pull together songs for each of the types! I don’t know if I could ever! 😆 I loved your selection and hope you’ll make another like this! (There’s this song I found on my computer today that I must have downloaded a few years ago called “When Will I Make a Living” by Sade. As an ISFP, I think this song is a great match, though I think other types might resonate with it too!)
Loved the video! I would love to see a skit on "16 personalities dating their extravert/introvert type" so like enfj and infj
Thanks for all your work on this! Brilliant job!
Omg I think about this all the time!! Firstly you have IMPECCABLE taste in music. You did an amazing job I love this ✨
As an ENFJ, I've always thought What's Up? by 4 non blondes is an *iconic* example of how we're very curious about the nature of the world and the people in it, but after getting so wrapped up and emotional about it we sit back and say "screw it, let's just enjoy life while we have it." It also has the implication of lifelong planning for some intangible goal involving ourselves and others. I feel like the energy and sound fit as well. It's upbeat but kind of pensive and quiet at times. And I just noticed the line "I'm feeling peculiar" is hilarious because of our lack of Fi lmao. It's so interesting how you chose a song with very similar focuses as I did, but mine didn't account for Fe quite as well.
I'm so glad you introduced us to Atlantic. It's become one of my favorite songs 🤭 the tune is so unique and the words are kinda comforting - INFP
Wait, has anyone else heard the lyrics as, “When I hear a song, it sounds like THIS ONE, so come on” in “Some Nights” rather than, “it sounds like a swan”? Have I been hearing it wrong this whole time?!? 🤯
Nevertheless, Some Nights is great and totally makes sense for the ENTJ! My favorite line in it is, “Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle. Some nights I wish they’d just fall off”
I really appreciate your explanation on why you choose that song for INTJs. You demonstrate care and awareness of how not only our minds works but our hearts ❤️ Thanx.
I love this video of yours! thank you for the wonderful music recommendations! :D
ISTP- woah, all the reasons behind this choice (exept the instrumental thing) were surprising and i really didn't see that coming. I felt almost naked, or frightened. Wich means you nailed it.
ISTJ here Cats in the Cradle was the only liked song on the playlist and the moment I saw it I knew it was the one you would pick it for my personality. Love the breakdown of each song and personality!
I want to say that this video is the result of high-quality work, thank you for paying so much attention to the details and features of each type and choosing songs for them. It was like a discovery, I looked at the world through the eyes of 16 types through the music that I always deeply feel. Thank you Kristin for such a unique experience!!🤗🥰
I really enjoyed this video, It was a huge treat for me!
I listen to lots of different genres and I like to dive deep in the lyrics and the instrumental as well, but I never linked them to Mbti before. Amazing idea! It would be great to see more content like this in the future! I appreciate the work you put into this! Thank you!
Remarkably well done and I can see how well thought out each of these choices are. Checked a number of the artists out and it seems out of the ones I checked they correspond to the actual type. I believe an artist does show their type through their voice, their message, and music itself.
This was fun! I could only guess correctly my own type xD INFJ bc of the melancholic style and the amount of metaphors, God knows I love metaphors 😅😂
this is amazing!! whether it's memes or in depth analysis... you have such beautiful insight!!
Nice content Idea, was really fun to guess. Another interesting thing would be Childhood films or series as 16 Personalities.
Thank goodness you put a couple older songs in there. I’ve heard of most of the artists mentioned but not heard any of their songs. Congratulations on completing this project - I’m sure it was a lot of effort. I’ll give them a listen if/when I remember to do so. And yes, do more projects like this. It makes you happy.
Personalities as TV series? Films? Food? Hats? BOOKS???
Hahahaha hats!
Love your taste in music and thank you for introducing me to Keane! And now I Can’t stop listening to Atlantic it’s such a beautiful song. Even though I’m not INFP I feel like this song fits the INFP because with have and INFP best friend and the last line literally describes her to a tee!
This was so so fun! I would be thrilled if you did something like this again!
I love Henry Jamison, and 'If you could read my mind' is the perfect song for INFJ. You did a great job Kristin!!! 💕👌🏻
I thought (as an INFJ) that this isn’t what an INFJ would think, but I did suspect it was the intended INFJ song. I put Atlantic as INFJ because I think living in the future is quite INFJ, as is placing importance on finding our significant other for long term love.
Sorry it didn't resonate with you @@jennyhorner. Personally I connect more with 'If you could read my mind' then 'Atlantic' They're both nice songs though. If she ever does this again, I hope you get your song picked! 🤞🏻
Whoa! Homework! Nice. Appreciate all your work putting this together. This is the perfect rabbit hole to go down for me right now.
This is hard lol I think I guessed at least half of them. I dunno yet I'm on 12
SUPER enjoyable just for the musical analysis!!!! 😍😍
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!! I listen to songs that are LITERALLY about MBTI and Enneagram. Obviously that’s very different than songs that are about their own subject matter, but this is so awesome! I can’t wait! 😂😂😂🫰🫰🫰🫰
Such a banger of a video! Thank you! 🥰
Just wanna say that this playlist was such a banger! Liked most of the songs here. Your comedy sketches are so fun but it would also be nice seeing these type of videos once in a while
As a Christian and an INTP, I can say that song really resonates even a believer's mind. I have these struggles everyday in my life, and I managed to put God in my systems of thought, but man, it was and is a long journey (and C. G. Jung was one of my greatest inspiration on it, when I first read his writings on archetypes and the collective unconscious, I was like " oh, that actually makes sense").
I had my nihilistic episodes in my life, and I don't deny that I constantly feel the pull of nihilism all the time. I simply had to accept that the constant doubts are part of how I believe, that I will never be able to believe with such emotional charge as some others. My belief is like Jacob's dream, a permanent, steady-state struggle of thoughts. But at the end of the day, I always wish God to be my sparring partner in my head. I accepted that even the best systems I can figure out will always unravel at the edges, and I will never find the ultimate solution to everything. I just have to believe that the ultimate solution exists, if there is one, it must be something like God, and I might catch glimpses of it one day.
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Man Kristin @@ I'm ISTJ and just listen to Cat's in the Cradle, now i'm teared up. What a sad story then @@. We grew up with ESTJ dad and he IS busy, but never forget to take his time to be with family.
Since I'm far from being a parent, don't know if my work gonna be that heavy, but time for my kids is a main priority for me if i'm a parent. :)
Thank you Kristin for this very much sad song, but a loud reminder to parents that too tied up with work and forget to spend quality time with their kids.
As an INFP, I love the song you typed for us! I have a wide-variety of music tastes but I've yet stumble upon Atlantic by Keane. I love it! (adds it to a personal playlist)
Meanwhile, speaking of songs, some of my favorites are: Home by Cavetown, The Precipice by the Classic Crime, Just For Once by Abandoning Sunday, Toxic Thoughts by Faith Marie and Animal by Noah Kahan.
The common theme of these songs they are melancholic and the singers are able to go in-depth about how they express what they feel on the inside. It's funny that I also just realize all these singers are probably IxFx due to some of them can be straightforward and some add a little bit of abstract at the same time. ESPECIALLY Cavetown. Gosh, his songs are superb.
OH MY GOSH i'm an infp too, and I LOVE cavetown so much, and Home is such a good song. One of my favourites of his is talk to me, especially "you don't have to be a prodigy to be unique" because every time it just *hits* me and makes me remember that, oh yeah, I *don't* have to be a prodigy to be unique. Another artist I really like is Ricky Montgomery, because his music has certain like idk what to call them but like...waves? to them get me so emotionally involved in them, and you can just hear the emotion in his voice. I also love Paramore's All I wanted (honestly all of their songs in general), and Beach bunny as well. Sorry for the long comment, I just started out trying to say that I also love Cavetown but then I got carried away lol
Edit: ooh ooh, One more artist I really love is mxmtoon
Edit 2: and also All the Things She Said by t.A.T.u., and My chemical Romance but that's just cuz I love rock and stuff like that
Edit 3: ok ok ok, ONE more, called I Should Know Better by Me Not You
@@helenachester5992 Yay! Another mxmtoon and Paramore fan! :D
This was awesome! As a music and mbti nerd, I definitely enjoyed this!
As an ENTP I definitely didn’t guess that Little Dark Age was the song for my type, but… when you explained it, it made a lot of sense, haha
Thank you for the INFP song! It was very interesting to listen to. I also hadn't realized I already knew several songs by Keane that I love like Somewhere only we know and Everybody's changing.
Ooo girl you really did put a lot of effort in this. I like how you almost get philosophical in each one. Seriously great work, that's Fi arousal right there. lol I'm not even a music person but I found it fascinating. (INFP)
May I just say, your in-depth understanding of the featured music, as well as the MBTI-system is admirable, as is your ability to present your findings and interpretations in an understandable manner. I love your approach to MBTI, as you don’t use it to put people into boxes but to promote interpersonal understanding. I also adore your taste in music. I’d love you to do something like this again, I’m definitely going to check out the podcast.
Great video! As a 17 yr old Enfj I think your choice was good, and you also had good reasons for it. Personally I'd choose something like "Clocks" or "Paradise" by Coldplay, or alternatively, "Miss Freelove '69" by Hoodoo Gurus. I think if you listen as if the singer is the Enfj, it fits well. They probably represent the Fe-Se side of Enfj's more than Ni, but in saying that, I think music is very much rooted in Se to begin with. Regardless, they're absolute BANGERS. Seriously. Should give 'em a listen, especially Miss Freelove if you haven't heard it before.
This is a great video Kristen! Thank you for doing this. As an INTJ (and coincidentally a Christian) this was an excellent choice. As an aside, I really enjoy Terry Jack's guitar lick in the middle of the song. BTW - I can't listen to Cats in Cradle anymore. It's too depressing for me. As father of three with a busy career, I probably relate myself too much with the song. I'm sure an analyst would have a lot of fun spending time in my brain - it would be quite a ride! LOL!
Thank you for putting so much effort into this!❤ I loved listening to the songs and connecting them to a type. I will definitely watch the podcast later. The editing when you said nuanced again was perfect lol.
I hope you'll do this sometime again with new songs! When I listened to Atlantic I really loved the end "the day's beginning"! When I listened to this song I felt a wave of emotions, such a good choice! I need to stop my Fi before this comment gets too long. Have a nice day :)
Ahh I'm so glad! So good!
this was soooo fun! i'm an isfp and i must admit i was a little sceptical but i LOVE your choice for us, you did an excellent job :) i'd love to see more videos like this
Great job with such a challenging video! I once got the idea to try and put together a playlist of 10 songs that I thought were a good description of my personality type, and it was difficult to cut it down to 10 (granted I know an immense amount of songs, but still). I can only imagine how hard it must have been to whittle it down to one for your personality, but then you do the same for the other 15 types. Top that off both with quite a set of good descriptions of why each fit for each type, and a good taste in music, and that was awesome!
I quite enjoyed the song you came up with for the ISFJ. I've never heard of it or the one who sings it before, but it was a fun and bouncy song (my view perhaps tempered a bit by having found the music video to it when I searched the lyrics to be enjoyable). If you're ever looking for a challenge, it would be quite interesting to see what you would do with the idea of a short playlist for each type that describes that type. One thing I definitely agree with that you said in the video, "Cat's in The Cradle" is definitely quite a brutal song to listen to. Hits one right in the feelers every time.
Well done, this video was deeply thought through. 👏
Clearly a lot of work went behind this video! It makes me wonder if I should take up on creating a 16 personalities song list from a finite list, like every #1 song...
As a fellow music lover from my musical family (singer and drummer here) Just wanna give you a bit of thanks for the hours of work put into this one!
Thank you Brodie!
INFJ, I love the song, loved it way back when, never really considered the words before. Lately I listen to a lot of Alanis Morrisett. Thank U is high on the list. Aurora was mentioned in comments, I really like her song, Warrior. Thank you Kristen, great work!
This video is amazing, so fun and insightful! (So many bangers as well as intriguing songs I'll be listening to later for sure!) I'd love to see another song recommendation video, whether it would be "16 Personalities as 16 Keane Songs" or something else. Also 44:09 this bit made me think of Shades of Gray by The Monkees :)
Hi Kristin! Right now I’m too busy to binge watch all the video but the first thing that came into my mind when I saw the tittle is that I would love to see the same video but about the enneagram, if you are into it as well, in general I would love to see you talk about the enneagram and not only about the Mbti.
I like how for the te and Ti types, I often had to search the lyrics to get the meaning of the melody, but many of the Fi songs put the melody first and the lyrics sort of acted like another instrument. Thanks for the video!!
"I'm not sure I know an ISTP who has desperately pleaded for anything in their life..." 🤣
ENTP here that really loved the song you chose for ENTP. It's even music I would listen to. Will probably listen to it later again! Also, because you mentioned this certain song, one of my fav songs is in fact Heal the World by Michael Jackson. The glowing beaming beacon of wholesomeness in my life.
My ENTP bf also has a (secret) soft spot for wholesomeness and sentimentality. For him, it's "Dancing in the Moonlight" 🌙
Typo in the timestamps: ESFJ should be listed at 39:40.
Love this concept! Can't wait to listen to the podcast episode
Thank you for pointing this out!
I absolutely loved this video! That said, as an ESTP, I would consider even It Don't Move Me to be dwelling too much on the past! lol A song more like Thunder - by Imagine Dragons would be more like the ESTP, as its focus is on spontaneous action.
I’m in Amazement!! Truly great content😍😍
