It's because most of his vocals are layered, he has down toned and up toned segments during his singing so even if you slow the track you can hear the high tone singing parts lower, reflecting his "original" voice.
@@rickf6375 Theres plenty of songs without layered vocals but I agree it is a pretty common industry standard, I mean the artist does atleast 50 tracks per song so you might aswell create some harmonies with all the extra stems
Why does the “keep a place for me, I’ll sleep between y’all it’s nothing” hits harder than the original? Keep your heads up fellas and gals. Love will come around again.
Long ass story time I wanted to get off my chest: Back in 2016, I met someone through mutual friends and we instantly clicked. Which rarely happens. We became close friends in a short amount of time and about three months later, I started feeling a type of way. Turns out, I really liked this guy, but I was too scared to say anything. Another month went by and somehow, he found out that I had feelings for him. He confronted me about it and I freaked out and I ignored him for a couple of weeks until I finally got the balls to talk to him. I apologized, he pretty much forgave me, and we eventually started hanging out again but we never mentioned the incident, which started to overwhelm me because I still liked him. Our bond got stronger but so did the tension. A couple days before New Years, we were hanging out in Downtown, Chicago, and he finally kissed me as we waited for the train. I was so insanely happy & relieved, I honestly could’ve passed out. To fast forward, for the next 5 months, we pretty much acted as a couple without clarifying anything. We had our little arguments, we went out together, we had sex, we supported/helped each other, and we even met each other’s family. It all felt like a dream to me because I was so in love with this guy. He made me genuinely happy. I trusted and adored him. I had never felt that way before. But out of nowhere, he distanced himself which was weird. No matter how hard I tried to communicate with him, he would treat it like it wasn’t a big deal. But some time during the summer of 2017, I found out he started talking to someone else. I was devastated. Even though I’ve already been through traumatic shit, I had never been in love before. I had never been that type of heartbroken before. I showed up to his house one night to personally tell him to never talk to me again. He called me a couple nights later to tell me that he loves me and wanted me to stay in his life. Something he should said and committed to, the entire year(+) we knew each other That was about two years ago. Same time I started listening to frank ocean (pretty convenient). It took me a long time to move on from him, but every time I listen to this song, it reminds me of him. He is currently still with the person he (sort of) left me for. I still have yet to meet someone else who will give me the same genuine feelings I had for him. At the end of the day, I’ve been busy with life and I’m happy with my current loved ones. Even though what he did to me absolutely broke me, he was my first love and the aftermath contributed to my growth.
U see i dont know u but u seem like a caring person and i would never leave u like that. So if he couldnt see how damn nice u r and how much love u showed him, sis he never deserved u. Remember, it s his loss, not yours. When u ll find the person that will give u back (and much more) the love u give, u ll realise what real love feels like. Hope u doing well
I’m so glad ppl are talking abt 2:24 because every time that part comes on in the song I literally feel so enlightened I can’t explain it. Yung leans voice with Franks is some kinda drug fr. Makes me feel all emotions at once.
Falling out of live with someone was never love to begin with. Real love will always be there if you truly love someone even if they’re not in your life.
my friend introduced me to frank when i was going through a really hard time in 2018. I may not be the most og fan, but he has changed my life and gotten me through so much. people always ask me, "how does his music help you go through stuff if you're crying while listening to it?" for me, crying just gets out everything because if i dont cry it all bottles up. frank helps me let go of everything
I relate so much to "I came to visit because you treat me like a UFO" I've always been good with people and they've always surrounded me all my life but for some reason I always felt like no one really got me and the ones that thought they did were and are still way off the mark and the things I do somehow always shock them and leave them sort of dissapointed in me. They don't say it but I feel it, I've been boxed in my whole life and I'm just looking for people who will take me for who I am and not who they want me to be. Don't know why I just typed all that but maybe it'll help somebody in a similar situation
This really hits different when you feel like for the first time you have someone in your life who loves you for you, and because of other circumstances it falls apart. Just, gut-wrenching.
This song takes me back to some of the greatest moments of my life with a girl I loved so much. Now, we’re about a year of being apart and I promise I haven’t stopped thinking about her once since the day we broke up. I wish I could go back in time and give her all the love she deserved, she was and will always be the most beautiful soul I’ve ever met. Boys, if you currently have a girl that you love continue giving her all your love!! I promise it will be the biggest regret of your life if you don’t. I took her love for granted and now I just wish she kept a place for me in her heart. Julissa, if you ever see this I love you so much :,( Update: We started dating again after 2 years. Stay strong boys 🥲❤️
Literally one of the greatest songs ever made... Sitting in my garage in my car, car off but radio on...it's 3am as I write this and as soon as 2:50 hits I start balling... crying like I never have before.... I really needed that. Thank you so much

Krillindude the song is about a person dating frank’s ex in a rocky relationship and frank is still messing with that ex while they are in that relationship, also the sex was the only memorable part of the relationship, Thats why he talks about loosing self control, they were chilling, fucked around and had sex and something else but im too lazy to go deeper
before my last girlfriend broke up with me i cheated on her with another girl, but i didn't make clear to the new girl that i was already in a relationship with another person. it was a whole week every single day she was with me thinking i was hers (no we didn't fuck), and Saturday i had to tell that i had a gf (because we were at peace at this point) somehow she wasn't mad at me for fucking her life completely and i still don't know why... just putting this here, hope some people read this and take some advice not to be like i was.
@Halo Eve how you gonna call people idiots when you don't even know who he's singing about lmfao. SHE this and HER that. Learn a little about Frank Ocean before you nominate yourself his lyric interpreter.
i just want everyone here to know that i was doing karaoke with my best friend last night and she unexpectedly sung this song - and i was like “oh i guess we’re getting into our *FEELINGS* feelings tonight, huh?” and she was like yeah. after she finished singing it beautifully, we listened to the real song. it was the only frank ocean song that we listened to, but for the rest of the night i couldn’t keep it out of my head. and when i left her house at 3:00 AM i was extremely exhausted (and extremely drunk, mind u) and i got home, sat on my bed and before i could even get my pants all the way off i just started sobbing. it was a quiet but very profound cry that unwillingly gave me extremely melancholy feelings that i was incapable of making go away. these were the type of feelings that you feel deep in your chest. the kind that are so heavy you feel like you’re going to implode. anyway - i sobbed on my bed in the fetal position for about two hours all because this song unlocked that part of my soul (against my will) where one puts all of their repressed childhood traumas and dark, unexplainable and shameful personal feelings into. but, i’m doing fine today because i desperately have to remember that there is a reason i am here. everything happens for a reason. it will get better. you MUST believe that if it’s the last thing you do. don’t ever give up because then you won’t be able to outlive all those people who had forsaken you in the past. the universe has a plan (whether it be an easy one or extremely convoluted one) for all of us and we have to stick around to see how and where it all ends up. stay strong.
idk how to explain this feeling. I mean I’m sure when the pandemic is over and life gets back in order I won’t feel this way. But I also don’t know if that’s true either. I just feel so numb. Everything is so wrong with life. All I can hold onto is praying and just hoping the stars can hear me too.
this song made me just really want to cry when i was with my dog on a walk and I felt really weird like nostalgic feeling and some kind og hapiness when this song hitted me and like it was really weird cause I have been depressed in a while and this song made my feel magic, thanks Frank
This song has been my favorite song (not only by Frank but in general) ever since its release. I've always been listening to it non-stop, always gave me a feeling that I was eager to feel, can't find the words to describe it. A while ago I broke up with a guy, not because we lost the feelings we had for eachother, but for other types of issues that seemed like it could never get fixed. Now, everytime I listen to self control, it gets me in a way like never before, I can feel his frustration, and it is getting too painful to keep listening to it, I just hope I can cope with it, because I need this song in my life, especially now. I just hope I made the right decision
This song goes out to the girl I thought would be my forever. I wish you knew how much you still meant to me and how much I still think of you. 6 years later and you're still one of my best memories. I wish you the best in life and hope you're happy wherever you are. I'll always be there when you dont need me, I just wish you remember that.
“ some times you dance with tears in your eyes “ to me that symbolises the heartache / pain you feel whist in a relationship when there’s a issue but you don’t want to effect your relationship by bringing it up so you just carry on
I dedicate this song to you never meant to be a rock in your shoe, i spend most my moments missing you. listening to frank by the ocean, hoping you forgive me but never forget me please believe me when I say that I never meant to let you you down and ill always be around when you need it Yours truly
I remember being loved, the sound of the voices, the memories now in someone's sonder- they made me feel out of my body, like I finally was out from under the bus- played like a record over and over again..I kept stringing along- they waved me like the ocean as I fell deep in the sand- they'd rather wait for the tide to come..and maybe one day we'll flow ashore again.
A little story. I have a best friend and recently I’ve had feelings for her. I’ve had all kinds of crushes but bc I’m a hopeless romantic I love the feeling of liking someone but this time I was trying anything to get rid of my feelings. We have known each other for over 8 years and we just graduated high school so that’s like the majority of our lives lol and she meant the world to me even before I got feelings for her. I’m leaving for basic training in 2 months as I’m writing this. She tells me she will miss me when I go and tells me I better write her and all this stuff. It’s really sweet and makes me feel appreciated. One night when we were hanging out she told me that she’s enjoyed our friendship a “10/10 friendship” she said and I told her I agreed. She thanked me for putting up with her for years and I thanked her for putting up with me. Later that night she told me she owes me her life and I told her I owed her mine. Anyway I found out from her that she and my friend like each other so that night I told her that I had feelings for her and that it’s best we don’t hang out for a while. I care about her a lot. If she is happy with someone else so be it. Ik I have a friendship with her that is rare to find and I’m forever thankful for it. And it does hurt to have ur heart crushed especially by someone so close to you I trust myself that I’ll get through it. Hopefully she doesn’t see this lol. If she does end up seeing this comment one day then lol sorry for sharing our stuff on the internet.
i also remember listening to this for the first tme after being blocked by a girl who i'd once been talking to. after telling her we wouldn't be able to meet up in summer, she blocked me and never spoke to me again. i found this at the bottom of my playlist and decided to stick it on while cycling in the woods to clear my head. by the time i got back, i'd listened to it five times with the whole album queued after the sixth listen. frank truly is magic

Out of all the slowed versions of songs Ive heard, Frank sounds the most like himself even at this slower pace.
It's because most of his vocals are layered, he has down toned and up toned segments during his singing so even if you slow the track you can hear the high tone singing parts lower, reflecting his "original" voice.
@@AntiSVH each and every studio release has layered vocals
@@rickf6375 Theres plenty of songs without layered vocals but I agree it is a pretty common industry standard, I mean the artist does atleast 50 tracks per song so you might aswell create some harmonies with all the extra stems
true
in nights slowed reverb he sounds a lot like himself still and even the timing seems right
this is a different level of emotion unlocked
Dude!!!😩💔💔
waitt your pfp😩
i fucking cant with that pfp on😭😂
frank ocean truly changed my life. hes so incredible
same here. he is genuinely amazing.
I can feel this as well, Grace. You're not out if place.
Frank came into my life when I needed him the most. Definitely the best album of the decade , maybe even of all time.
Summer 2016 changed my life.
hes gotten be through so much, i love him so so so much. he changed my life too, thats just what he does because his music is so good
It's ok to be tired of being tired sometimes, just rest.

rest in peace
Bless up
bless your soul, ily
Is there a limit to how much we can rest? Bc I been resting for a while n I’m still tired

Long ass story time I wanted to get off my chest:
Back in 2016, I met someone through mutual friends and we instantly clicked. Which rarely happens. We became close friends in a short amount of time and about three months later, I started feeling a type of way. Turns out, I really liked this guy, but I was too scared to say anything. Another month went by and somehow, he found out that I had feelings for him. He confronted me about it and I freaked out and I ignored him for a couple of weeks until I finally got the balls to talk to him. I apologized, he pretty much forgave me, and we eventually started hanging out again but we never mentioned the incident, which started to overwhelm me because I still liked him. Our bond got stronger but so did the tension. A couple days before New Years, we were hanging out in Downtown, Chicago, and he finally kissed me as we waited for the train. I was so insanely happy & relieved, I honestly could’ve passed out.
To fast forward, for the next 5 months, we pretty much acted as a couple without clarifying anything. We had our little arguments, we went out together, we had sex, we supported/helped each other, and we even met each other’s family.
It all felt like a dream to me because I was so in love with this guy. He made me genuinely happy. I trusted and adored him. I had never felt that way before.
But out of nowhere, he distanced himself which was weird. No matter how hard I tried to communicate with him, he would treat it like it wasn’t a big deal. But some time during the summer of 2017, I found out he started talking to someone else.
I was devastated. Even though I’ve already been through traumatic shit, I had never been in love before. I had never been that type of heartbroken before.

listened to this at full volume and at 3:20 i broke down in tears, literally bawling. made me realize so many things i thank u for this
wha especially when you’re going thru it 🥺🥺🥺
wow that really hit home.
When its slowed down, it feels like each note has more meaning, more room to breath.
I’m so glad ppl are talking abt 2:24 because every time that part comes on in the song I literally feel so enlightened I can’t explain it. Yung leans voice with Franks is some kinda drug fr. Makes me feel all emotions at once.

@@yonglebongle3700 literally so true🥺🫂
This song has been my favorite song (not only by Frank but in general) ever since its release. I've always been listening to it non-stop, always gave me a feeling that I was eager to feel, can't find the words to describe it.
A while ago I broke up with a guy, not because we lost the feelings we had for eachother, but for other types of issues that seemed like it could never get fixed.
Now, everytime I listen to self control, it gets me in a way like never before, I can feel his frustration, and it is getting too painful to keep listening to it, I just hope I can cope with it, because I need this song in my life, especially now.
I just hope I made the right decision
wow thank you for this
what I love about slowed + reverb is you can really tell when someone's an incredible singer
its been a year since this gem was published , thank you 🙏
song from heaven
"wish we grown up on the same advice and our time was right" damn this hit home 😬
This song goes out to the girl I thought would be my forever. I wish you knew how much you still meant to me and how much I still think of you. 6 years later and you're still one of my best memories. I wish you the best in life and hope you're happy wherever you are. I'll always be there when you dont need me, I just wish you remember that.
:(
“ some times you dance with tears in your eyes “ to me that symbolises the heartache / pain you feel whist in a relationship when there’s a issue but you don’t want to effect your relationship by bringing it up so you just carry on
i discovered this song over a year ago and had such a emotional bond to it so thank you for this
Some nights you dance with tears in your eyes ✨😢
here on the 4th of July, lookin at the fireworks and wishing she was here with me
this reminds me of my first love I met on grindr. he made me laugh, cry, and feel so special. i think about him everyday.

No one cares about your sub par lyrics trying to brown nose frank ocean just being honest
@@jxden_dxdrxs4518 thanks for your honesty
2:54 hits hard every time
I wasn’t invited to any Halloween parties so I decided to listen to this before bed
This is quickly becoming my favorite song of all time
Wow. I can’t even describe how beautiful this is and it just gets better the more you listen
2am vibes🥺✨
I remember being loved, the sound of the voices, the memories now in someone's sonder- they made me feel out of my body, like I finally was out from under the bus- played like a record over and over again..I kept stringing along- they waved me like the ocean as I fell deep in the sand- they'd rather wait for the tide to come..and maybe one day we'll flow ashore again.
this song changed my life
i will forever simp for this song.
I thank frank ocean for changing my life completely
frrr
Bro the yung lean part make me up
This slowed version of the song just makes you want to cry for no reason.

the crying hit extra hard this time around
my favourite frank song
Crying your balls out mourning while on shrooms and listening tho this at 1 am are moments to live for
2:24 Yung lean absolutely killed it with this
will always personally be my favourite part!

A little story. I have a best friend and recently I’ve had feelings for her. I’ve had all kinds of crushes but bc I’m a hopeless romantic I love the feeling of liking someone but this time I was trying anything to get rid of my feelings. We have known each other for over 8 years and we just graduated high school so that’s like the majority of our lives lol and she meant the world to me even before I got feelings for her. I’m leaving for basic training in 2 months as I’m writing this. She tells me she will miss me when I go and tells me I better write her and all this stuff. It’s really sweet and makes me feel appreciated. One night when we were hanging out she told me that she’s enjoyed our friendship a “10/10 friendship” she said and I told her I agreed. She thanked me for putting up with her for years and I thanked her for putting up with me. Later that night she told me she owes me her life and I told her I owed her mine. Anyway I found out from her that she and my friend like each other so that night I told her that I had feelings for her and that it’s best we don’t hang out for a while. I care about her a lot. If she is happy with someone else so be it. Ik I have a friendship with her that is rare to find and I’m forever thankful for it. And it does hurt to have ur heart crushed especially by someone so close to you I trust myself that I’ll get through it. Hopefully she doesn’t see this lol. If she does end up seeing this comment one day then lol sorry for sharing our stuff on the internet.
Yung lean’s voice sounds more vulnerable when slowed, i love it so much
🅿️ain😔🤧
why am i not enough
I would like to thank this song for putting me to sleep every night.
i also remember listening to this for the first tme after being blocked by a girl who i'd once been talking to. after telling her we wouldn't be able to meet up in summer, she blocked me and never spoke to me again. i found this at the bottom of my playlist and decided to stick it on while cycling in the woods to clear my head. by the time i got back, i'd listened to it five times with the whole album queued after the sixth listen. frank truly is magic
