I thought the meaning was more about telling people that you don't have to have everything high end, that it's okay to shop in a thrift shop. I wish this song was around when I was a kid. They always made fun of me and told me I bought clothes from a thrift shop.
yep that is Wanz, aka Michael Wansley. A software test engineer who walked into Thrift shop history during an audition and became a hit, toured, in the official music video, and awards. He as into music long before Thrift shop, he did a lot of music after, and only a few years after this song went back to being a software test engineer along with other things. So.. talented, AND smart.
Same! I’ve always loved Macklemore, with or without Ryan Lewis but I really hope they’re still together but wow. Can’t Hold Us was a song I just had to know all the words to!
Oh I remember when this came out! Macklemore was so cool; I loved him back then! The positivity & zeal is so contagious. Please try Same Love, White walls or Can't hold us next!
it's not that we want less money/need less money or value our time more. we just don't want to be worked to death just to make ends meet, cost of living has steadily raised and minimum wage has stayed more or less the same. everything gets more expensive like housing and now food and minimum wage where I am is $7.25 an hour. how are you supposed to make a living off of that. NEEDING two jobs just to live isn't normal. I know people will blame presidents for it and try to comment on this with "BuT bIdEn" but the fact of the matter is it's not just one president who did this it's us who vote the congressmen/women in that allowed it to stay this way.
Agreed. I think we just spend what we have on a cool thrifty jacket (for example) or whatever when we have the money because we don't know when we will again. Retirement age keeps getting pushed up, any money we save, will we be able to enjoy it?
You should react to Macklemore Gloria's it's a song he did for his Grandmother's 100th Birthday it's so good he has one bad ass Granny it's so sweet he loves his grandmother so much Xx
Guys if you haven't you should react to No Bad Days (he let's his 7 year old skip school and direct the video) and Glorious (he spend his Grandma's 100th Birthday with he doing whatever she wants ❤😊
Great reaction just fyi, your shirt would probably sell in a minuite in a thrift shop :D btw. I loved that statement, "The clothes dont make the man, its the man that makes the clothes." On another note I will check after if you might have reacted to it already, but this one smh reminded me of it, check out "Its a mans world" by james brown, it may sound offencive by the title but the song imo is a song about appreciating that a man needs a woman. (If you know the song anyway I would love if you could say something about how you fell about it in a comment.
I'll probably never be able to afford to retire. I'll probably never be able to afford nice new clothes. I make 55k a year and still live paycheck to paycheck. Might as well have fun with it and if that means heading off to the thrift shop or showing up to the DMV in pajamas, then we showing up in thrift shop pjs, heelies, and some weird ass sun glasses to the DMV. Bills might take my money, but they can't take my spirit.

If you listen to another Macklemore song, listen to "Can't Hold Us". That song is insane and such a hype song for me growing up!
Yes this and Downtown would be so fun, especially if they can do the MV
Same! I’ve always loved Macklemore, with or without Ryan Lewis but I really hope they’re still together but wow. Can’t Hold Us was a song I just had to know all the words to!
A must is “Same Love” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis!

Please try Same Love, White walls or Can't hold us next!
It's so true about the "retro fashion". My dad gave his old snake skin boots he wore to Discos in the 70s and 80s.

I love this song. It's so different, but still catchy.
But it's of course a 'commercial' for the Thrift shops.
When did thrift stores ever need commercials?
Dale wacho, la re viví
