      Yes, this song has been in my head for the past year or so, I even sang the “hello, hello” part today without Thinking. Then ten minutes ago my friend mentioned the song dear winter which I love so I listened to it and went to more of their songs.

    I love how in the first chorus when he sees the "inner child" in some dude's sunglasses, he isn't even embarrassed (or at least doesn't show it) when he realizes he was just awkwardly staring deeply into another stranger's eyes. He's just so amazed to see his inner child reflection. So many little things in this song that I love!
    This song is so relatable too. At first he realizes he's still a kid at heart, and his first reaction - as an adult - is to try and get rid of it by moving reflection to reflection really fast. When he does lose his inner child, he feels lost and looks everywhere trying to get it back.
    Definitely one of AJR's best music videos on top of one of their best songs imo

      While I love the reference, describing someone as your favorite color when referencing frequencies is fairly scientifically sound. The perception of color has to do with the frequency of the light waves and how those light waves bounce off of an object and to our eyes.

      I shed so many tears to this song and now that I got to hear it again, I too wonder where has it all gone... I'm working a job I don't like, living with people (family) who don't make me happy (after the only dear person from the bunch had passed away), having friends who don't reciprocate anything or who just do the bare minimum, I've never felt love with a woman, or similar belonging...
      The song says "all the big kids, they are drunk", but I feel that's the only way to cope :/
      Oh and I'm writing this after a great vacation with a couple of real friends. So basically while I'm feeling "better than usual". Ah. What a tedious journey, this 'life'.

    This song reminds me of my friend Kendra. She was an excellent artist. Really liked cats, especially mine. I've never met anyone who believed in me as much as she did.
    She moved, but we still talked online. Eventually we lost touch from even that. She didn't show up online for a long time.
    Turns out she died eight months ago in a car accident. She was 15. The last thing she ever texted me was how she wanted to meet up soon.

    I hope that you're missin' me
    'Cause it makes me feel young
    Hello, hello
    Last time that I saw your face
    Was recess in second grade
    And it made me feel young
    [Chorus: Jack Met]
    Won't you help me sober up?

    And I wanna feel somethin' again
    Won't you help me sober up?

    Won't you help me feel somethin' again?
    How's it go again?
    [Verse 2: Jack Met]
    "Goodbye, goodbye"
    I said to my best-est buds
    We said that we'd keep in touch
    And we did our best
    All my new friends
    We smile at party time
    But soon we forget to smile
    At anything else
    [Chorus: Jack Met]
    Won't you help me sober up?
    Growin' up, it made me numb
    And I want to feel somethin' again
    Won't you help me sober up?

    I wasn’t a child anymore. I grew up really fast. And it was terrible.
    Enjoy your childhood, your youth. Please.

    I’ll never forget when I discovered AJR. It was RIGHT when this song came out. I was driving to my first training conference to be an Assistant Director at Huntington Learning Center. I heard this song and it reminded me of my best friends back home a few states away. I got this sinking feeling right there that I was going down the wrong path, the “professional” path I never wanted to. I buried my feelings and finished the training and I was Assistant Director for a while miserable year. I kept this song close to my heart until I was finally ready to put in my 2 weeks and pursue my real love of writing. Growing up really did make me numb, and AJR helped me sober up.

    This is the most relatable thing I’ve ever heard. Being the youngest in my family, and moving around a lot when I was younger, this really hits hard. Most of the time when I’m around family I’ve run out of emotions to their antics or I’m just the stupid younger brother. Then I try and find friends who can help me feel alive and my age again, but then they end up being more of a burden than I intended. One day I hope to finally be able to feel like I was when I was younger and had my major emotions.

    Turns out he was killed in Sandy Hook.
    Not a day goes by I don’t miss him.

    The line “my favorite color is you” brings back a very distinct memory for me. I used to have such interesting and meaningful conversations with a friend. She hated small talk and so we would often try to have more meaningful conversations. One day we were talking about liking AJR, and we mentioned this song and somehow we both sang this line at the same time. It was just so nice to share that moment and to be friends. We have drifted apart which is why I see this line as such a sad one personally. It reminds me of those conversations and how I wish I could relive some of those moments.

    My boyfriend sent me this song saying it reminds him of me. Im crying after searching the meaning. My assumption to the meaning was pretty close, but essentially its about asking for help to sober up from the weight of becoming an adult. We are both carefree and happy with each other. He essentially told me that I take away the pressure associated with being an adult. That I make life easier. Which I feel the same way to him about. This song oficially makes me cry when I hear it, and I can hear him so vividly singing it to me on our call last night

    I literally have this song playing on my computer all day while I work. It keeps me wanting to to stay on the right path with my life. Being sober is def where I want to be to spend and remember the all the times with my little family I've created.. Have had some really rough times the past couple of years that have almost made me lose everything.. Anyways. This song brings me back down and helps think of all the good times before and all the good times I want to look forward too. Thank you for the jam. Def like it a lot and it helps a lot.

    I listened to this song as a young teenager, coming right out of my preteens. Didn't know what life had in store for me, and listening to this song on the radio was great, but I didn't understand every bit of it. Six years later, and as a guy pretty close to his early twenties, I can echo the sentiments of this song: I don't know where I'm supposed to be, and I'm trying to search for the older parts of myself in order to feel young

  • @morgan4681
    @morgan4681 5 років тому +2859

    This song hits me hard.
    The message i get is he is talking to himself when he was younger. Reminiscing about his youth and asking himself to help him sober up because as he grew up he saw how the world really was, cold and cruel and so he turned to alcoholism and partying to deal with it. He misses the innocence & bliss of childhood. Now that he's grown he turns to partying for "fun" because growing up made him numb and he wants that childlike happiness again.

    Jack (I think that’s his name) is so symbiotic why he is chasing his younger reflection. It is really deep because as you grow up you only wanna get younger but you can’t. Your youth will always be running from you. Once you embrace that then you might finally find your true youth.

I'm now done my first year of college, and I think it's safe to say this song has stuck with me through good and bad times. It always gave me a weird sense of nostalgia and longing for something I couldn't truly explain - but now, about 5 years later, after everything I've been through, I think I'm starting to finally get it, and it's just giving a deeper love to this song I didn't even know was possible
