    The saddest part is when he asks her about her aspiration in life and she answers to be happy, even when she looks absolutely flawless she doesn't feel complete or happy, when you think of it a lot of us grew up not knowing what we want or why were we born in the first place, with no role models, no one to support us or accept our imperfections and make us feel loved, believing in our potentials instead of limiting us and putting us into boxes of what society expects us to be, no one there to perpetuate the concept of dreams or talent or different is ok, different is good, but everyone wanting you to lool a certain way, get a degree at a certain age, find a job, have kids but not later, cuz the clock is ticking, for us women, our every move is followed by criticism, sometimes on things we can't control, it's frustrating and unfair but we are the source of life, beauty, kindness and giving, remember you are loved and appreciated in all forms, sizes, races and genders no matter how you decided to live your life ❤

    Haters will be haters. People look for things to complain about. She releases something like drunk in love, people don't like it because they think its just about sex. Now she makes a song with an in depth meaning. "How can she make a song about being pretty hurting when she is pretty" stfu and grasp the message instead of looking for something to complain about. I'm not saying u have to like but shit, people are never satisfied even when artist try. I looking at the comments like WTF do u want from her? At least she's trying. People complain about music sticking now days, but bash the good music too. People don't know what they want.

    I have always been considered pretty by the people around me. I hate it. I see my younger relatives look up to me and always saying "I want to be as pretty as you!" It's a complement yes, but I don't want these younger girls or anyone else out there, to try to change their physical attributes to be considered "attractive" in the society's eye. Every time my younger relatives or nieces say that to me I immediately turn around and reply with "Your as beautiful as you ever will be. Don't change who your are sweetheart" Hearing this song all the time brings tears to my eyes. I once loved someone but they only loved the idea of being with me. He loved to say "Im dating her" Showing me off as if I was a trophy. I've always been used for my "looks" to get themselves attention. I just wish someone will actually appreciate who I am.

      Twelve is when puberty hits. If she feels she needs to start shaving, that seems alright to me. Don't let her go overboard with wearing makeup and stuff, but I think a trip to the salon can boost her confidence without her going crazy. I don't think it's that unnatural to want to feel 'adult' at her age, just don't be the one forcing it on her.

    • @chloewright207
      @chloewright207 6 років тому

      +Yamchachacha "12 is when puberty hits"? Where did you get that from?
      FROM GOOGLE - Puberty usually occurs in girls between the ages of 10 and 14, while in boys it generally occurs later, between the ages of 12 and 16. In some African-American girls, puberty begins earlier, at about age 9, meaning that puberty occurs from ages 9 to 14. She's asking for advice regarding her cousin, not her daughter. You shouldn't be giving advice to someone who has no right to decide if her cousin is ready to start shaving and wearing make up. Ridiculous.

      @why not ? Both of them spent hours upon hours perfecting this beautiful piece; however, Sia specifically wrote the song. Beyonce sung the mess outta this song but Sia is the one who came up with the controversial ideas about society, it's expectations and how it is destroying us.

      Snowdrops Rain Happiness Sia wrote the song and it was rejected by I believe Rihanna and someone else, she was going to scrap it until Beyoncé got her hands on the demo and took it, Beyoncé is sort of notorious for her composition of songs so whilst she didn’t co-write it per say she definitely had a major hand in how the song turned out

      @@Ryan-og3xq I don't remember doubting Beyonce but I have a question. Why does Rihanna and "someone else" need to approve of the song??

    I'm 11 and I have a crossed eye, crooked teeth, cupped ears, glasses, and I'm light skin. All these things make me feel like wasn't worth it. I have serious depression. But music helps me. This song was definitely on my Playlist. 🙂
