Lyrics:
I was walking through icy streams
That took my breath away
Moving slowly through westward water
Over glacial plains
And I walked off you
And I walked off an old me
Oh me oh my I thought it was a dream
So it seemed
And now, breathe deep
I'm inhaling
You and I, there's air in between
Leave me be
I'm exhaling
You and I, there's air in between
You and I, there's air in between
Cut my hair so I could rock back and forth
Without thinking of you
Learned to talk and say
Whatever I wanted to
And I walked off you
And I walked off an old me
Oh me oh my
I thought it was a dream
So it seemed
And now, breathe deep
I'm inhaling
You and I, there's air in between
Leave me be
I'm exhaling
You and I, there's air in between
You and I, there's air in between
You and I, there's air in between

I have zero notes for that.
Smooth
iykyk
Lol
Nice
It's so singular
UA-cam algorithm recommends Pharell master class with Maggie Rogers, and so here I am. Very pleased.
SAME!
the path of the righteous man
IKR lol
JUST HAPPENED TO ME IVE NOW WATCH THE MASTERCLASS ON REPEAT FOR 2 HOURS NOW LOL
Same here. I had watch the master class video a few years back but this time I actually looked her up after watching the Masterclass video
5 years later I find this gem. Nothing is lost, only misplaced.
I'm just now hearing this
Same here.
word
Proud to say she's second cousins with my mom and I've said hi to her at family reunions 😎
@@maddiee73 claim to fame x
I heard this song for the 1st time 3 years ago. There was a wedding across the woods from my house. The live band took a break so someone DJ'd for 30 mins. This was the 1st song played. I heard it in an echo coming through the woods. It was the most beautiful song I'd ever heard playing on the breeze. Thank you Maggie. You are super talented. I love every song you've put out. ❤
🔥
Great description.
Painted a lovely picture.
This is amazing.. some times the beautiful moment's unexpectedly in our lives are better than a Hollywood movies script. I love hearing shit like this
What an amazing way to first hear this song! So fitting 🥰
Well that must've been absolute pleasure for you,class tune ,sending love from the emerald isle 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Well, I'm exactly three years late to the party. She is so great.
You're not alone. LOL
Thomas Grey same tho
Great music is timeless and lacks an expiration date - so it doesn't matter if you were 3 or 100 years late 😉
same lol
phahah ..same
maggie: it probably needs a few more hours of mixing and mastering but...
also maggie: posts the song just the way it is and gets 80 million streams on spotify
Probably so, but as someone who mixes and masters everyday, I think there's too much mixing and mastering in the world and not enough free and fast moving creativity. 😊 I don't know why so many sing like they're drunk these days (My suspicion is it's partly insecurity about the words), but hey it's working for them so whatevs. This is a pleasant and sweet recording i'd say.
@@kenhymes4900 This is what I thought when i listened to Madonna's Crave she released this year. Her singing voice was never strong but she had a cute voice. In this song she has that "drunk" voice as you describe, probably to sound like how the tweens sing nowdays but it's pretty awful to me.. she doesn't need to do this
that's literally every artist. mixing/mastering is never done, you just run out of time
Avery Rose Sweet Jesus, thought you were being sarcastic. This tune is extremely produced.
You wouldn't necessarily hear the difference that a few hours of mixing and mastering makes, especially comparing that video footage to the actual audio.
Can we all just appreciate the fact this song was written just so she didn’t fail the course she was in. I am baffled this masterpiece was just whipped up out of nowhere.. that to me is pure unadulterated talent.
Ikr this is indeed talents
PHARELL made her blow up.... give him credit. She played this for him and he was like "WOAH"
Pressure produces diamonds
@@jjjvvv123 I am here only bc of Pharrell
@@jojo22777 Let's also not act like 13 time grammy winning Pharrell said he had zero notes for it... Someone who's being doing it that long not finding ANY pointers is a massive reflection on her...why are you acting otherwise?
ill never forget the time my dentist played this song for me while he was taking out my wisdom teeth, it was the most amazing moment of my life
I love this girls mind. I'm absolutely obsessed. Her style. Her dance. Everything.
MrJMO78 her mind lol yeah right
jamesd Have you heard her speak? Shes brilliantly smart
yeeeeah... but dont be obsessed...kinda creepy ;-)
Ivan Lekovic Please tell me Ivan Lekovic is your real name. I'm now turning my obsession towards you.
You're a dramatic character.
I heard 10 seconds of this song in Heartstopper and had to find it immediately!! 🌈
Ha ha... When I heard it in Heartstopper I instantly recognised it.. such a bomb
I've known this song since 2019 I was so surprised to hear it in heartstopper
I've tried to find out the title of this song for years! just heard it in heartstopper, looked it up and found it.
@@asjchy123 ikrrr
Same here. Downloaded it immediately.
This is almost exactly how I saw this song in my mind the very first time I listened…. I’m only 4 years late to the Maggie Rogers party but I’m here
Me too.. Found her on npr and came back for more..love her voice.. Reminds me of sylvan esso? Her voice.. Woke up to this today and super pleased ☺
“I walked off you and an old me” wow, so powerful ❤️😍
Watching Pharrell be basically speechless at your "needs a bit more work" track listening was truly inspiring. Being both gifted and humble are a great combanation to possess, I've heard this song before but until now didn't know the talent behind it. 4 years on I'm finally catching up to great music... what a gift!
What a song this is.... She's an exceptionally talented musician.

Bro it says it in the title

3 dudes that cannot read and 2 that also have no originality 🤦
I wrote ‘what a song this is’ and NOT ‘what song is this?’. Basic English and all 3 of you struggled with it PMSL.
Man I love simple videos like this. Compliments the song so well
Why’s it “simple”?
It's anything but simple
"complements"
@@padrelaw nono lol
Yeah it's a rare video nowadays, it's simple and really fitting
Stumbled upon her master class with Pharrell a few days ago and Out of nowhere I had the urge to look he up today. Truly an amazing artist! Thank you YT algorithm you did well.
@Maggie Rogers here for the same reason 2 months later. Not my scene at all. But it reminded me of every hike I’d ever been on where I found myself feeling this profound feeling. Up at the crack of Dawn, foggy wilderness when the light is just barely making the path clear. I feel that feeling again hearing this. That’s a gift.
@Maggie Rogers my daughter and I were blessed to see you in concert not long after we had to disappear.
We had won tickets.
Your song is soooooo healing.
I wish you could've seen the confidence even the environment you create with your fans affected my daughter. It was beautiful.
She was dance walking!
The people there were loving and encouraging.
Bless you and your music!
With love!♡
We no longer have to stay hidden.
We are safe.
Every time we listen to your song, we choreograph your beautiful flow, inhaling and exhaling.
Peace and love!
YES MAGGIE I AM BEYOND PROUD OF YOU WHAT A KILLER VID ✨
Chris Klemens you know Maggie????
Chris Klemens ten comment novel. Moist a

Chris Klemens omg I love u bæ
woah a wild chris
I KNEW MY BAD SLEEPING SCHEDULE WOULD PAY OFF
IT'S 6 AM AND I STILL HAVEN'T SLEPT AND LIKE A GIFT FROM THE HEAVENS THIS SO HAPPENED TO BE RELEASED
I'M SO HAPPY
Skooch same
Fav comment
Skooch I love your vids man, im watching you for a while now and i cant seem to stop.
FUCKING SAME but it's 5:00AM and a year later.
LoL, I found this at 10.30 after already having a productive last couple hours. You, sir/ma'am, are falling for the confirmation bias. hahahhahaha jk, but seriously tho...
The chord progression, the chill vibes, the ghostly vocals makes this track absolutely brilliant. Just a natural hook that drags you right in.
You said the same thing in the other video with her an Pharrel
@@chrismartin8832 its the same song
Back in 6th grade, I had a songwriting class and our teacher showed us this song as an example for the lyrics! We were learning about rhyming words and stuff, it was really fun. Although, I didn't do very well in that class because I wasn't interested in making music (I eventually left that school-) I'm still bopping my head to this song lol.
wow, what school does that?
So I'm kinda in love with this girl , that passion is beautiful
This might be the most beautiful and pure music I've ever heard. Its amazing for effortlessly she seems to do everything it's incredible
Acadia Mercer And to think she did this for a class is mind blowing. True Talent right here.
agreed! I can repay the chorus all day organic and sultry..I love her videos I love her music
u might like some of jessy lanza stuff, check it out :)
Thank you Heartstoppers for introducing me to this gem! ❤️
The silence and awe from Pharrell is the highest praise you can get.
She's basically flirting with nature in this video. :D
she wants a big Caucasian man to overrun her
@@bear24D define slow
@@justin-kurtgurel6829 Oh Id say over a 2-3 hour period
Pharrell trying to contain his excitement while listening to this song is priceless!
The chorus of this songs makes me feel things I don’t know how to put into mere words. Thank you for this.
I'm brand new to Maggie Rogers. Had the opportunity to see her perform at Red Rocks last night, and she was incredible! Instant fan.
This song is called Alaska because of the experience she had on a hike in Alaska. It mostly represents walking into a new part of her life.
Krista Smith thanks for the info! This gives me a whole new appreciation for the song.
*Real Musicians can name a song ANY FREAKING THING we choose. ~~~We are "UNEXPLAINABLE"!!!!!!!*
“So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane.”
J Lizaso where in the song does it say that, because that quote is beautiful and I didn't hear it
Completely Creative It's from the book "Looking for Alaska"
alison paige no way! I bought the book yesterday, can't wait to read it.
then you ate a sponge
It's my favorite book, ever.
I'm fortunate I met Maggie Rogers before my group realized how talented she had become and how bright she performed on stage. As for how I got acquainted with Maggie Rogers, when I worked as a hotel receptionist, she stood in the hotel where I worked. She performed this song at a modest venue in my city. After that performance, she appeared warm and engaged the audience in conversation, and afterwards, talked to me and my colleague. It's worth standing around for the energy. I'm fortunate Pharrell spotted her spirit before her songs attracted the global spotlight.
I loved the fact that Pharrell was amazed at her voice in her school. That video is so genuine that she didn't even realize he really loved the demo. Definitley different sounds from anything I've heard. I can listen to her voice forever. Very melancholy and dream like.
brilliant! :)
agreed x
Majestic? Weird seeing you here! xD
ihr seid auch überall :D ich hoffe ich kann irgendwann mal einen track über euch hochladen :D
Yeah this song is majestic
Get it up on the channel lad
This song came out the first time I left my home Alaska after graduating, recently heard again, just left home again and moving away for good, this song still gives me chills.
Alaska will always be home....
I’m from Palmer as well. No place like AK
Here after the Pharell clip with her, never heard of her but had to check it out! From the comments looks like lots did 6months ago too! Pretty good to have it recommended twice in 6 months!
“Cut my hair so I could rock back and forth without thinking of you”. I somehow have no idea what that means but also know exactly what that means.
Alex Prideaux that’s because it literally says what it means relax
it means her boyfriend would pull her hair when he is fucking her from behind... now he is her ex and the new boyfriend cannot hold onto her hair because she cut her hair...
@@Leeoh949 relax
me too
She explained that it was about cutting her hair and starting fresh cause the hair she cut was part of the old her 🤷🏻♂️
This song is amazing! Just goes to show that not all new music is garbage, you just have to look for whatever fits your taste.
PeridotPenguin the video is bad , the song good
PeridotPenguin
who the fuck is saying that all music is garbage?
i knew i recognised this song in heartstopper! love it sm
4 years late to the party but I’m glad I’m here 🙏🏽 this is good music. Well balanced, unique, ahead of its time, endorphin rushed emotions 💯
This song has not once ever failed to give me goosebumps. When the chorus hits and her voice gets higher....such a magical piece of music. Really makes me super emotional every time. This is special.
I’m sad because I wish I could hear this song again for the first time. Seriously one of my all time favorites❤️
Ugh omg I know. That first time was literally like my breath had been taken from me
Yes! I heard it for the first time during the master class and I’m like I was amazed the second time hearin it amazing I have Adhd and I could hear eveything single detail it’s amazing
Saw this randomly on twitter from the masterclass with Pharrell, seeing that it was released 6 years ago and it could well have been released today! What a timeless tune and my god how good it is!
HEARTSTOPPER BROUGHT ME BACK HERE. 💯❤️ THE PARTY SCENE, I JUST REMEMBERED THE MELODY. ❤️💯
that chorus is addicting asf
This song is very very different from what i usually or people hear..she deserved that grammy nomination
Darn right
This song feels like that moment when you go for a walk and the nature around you is so perfect, so unconcerned with you, but also feels like it was staged just for your viewing. And you start to fill up all of the parts of you that felt deflated and soon you overflow with tears of relief and gratitude that you get to experience life, that you get to be you, that you get to feel this deeply, that you always have the opportunity to change and grow and evolve. You will always be shedding your old self and growing your new one. And you can’t tell if you’re feeling intensely or softly, but you’re just relieved to be so thoroughly connected to the disconnection. It’s probably what animals feel, and for a little bit you get to be an animal too.
Really well said
My brain plays this song for me when I'm feeling down. Cheers me up most times.💗
First time I heard this song was soo breathtaking, about 1256 times later it's still breathtaking. I shiver every time I listen to it it's amazing 😉
those are called skingasms, google it, we're special to have this reaction to music

I just love the way she movers her hands, and her gestures! it's freaking magic!
SantiProjects she can't dance. This is how hippies at drugged out music festivals dance because they truly have zero rhythm.
The most rhythm she showed was when walking, aside from her music.
Her music is great, video....nope.
But she will call it art...which it's not.
I introduced her music to my daughter early this summer. Now she covers Maggie at a local cafe. Their voices are very similar. I LOVE how Maggie dances - so subtle & free.
I love her... She's so beautiful!
you'd love aurora then
and yet, she created the rhythm in the song. maybe she sees something you don't. how much of the video did you watch before posting?
The fact this is 5 years old and didn’t blow up on the hot 100… Billboard.. can we pull a
Lizzo and get this to chart? Imagine the Kygo remix of this!!
this is my feel good music. it has changed my life in a way i never imagined music would. its origin story has always stuck with me. i watch the NYU pharrell video when im feeling down, seeing the pure talent & realness from maggie gives me hope & happiness. thank you maggie for being your most authentic self.
The sound of that chorus is just beautiful
no time is wasted spent listening to maggie rogers
The sound of the song was like a gut punch since I'm hearing it for the first time. It makes me miss my love... Long and lost...
The progression of the strength of her voice, the airy tone of the chorus and the mastering of this song are an absolute masterpiece!!! When I first saw this and heard her say, “It could probably use a couple more hours of mixing and mastering, but it’s okay for now,” and then heard the song, I was in shock that she thought it needed anything else !!!!
That might be the single most meaningful lyric i've ever heard. "You and I, there's air in between" Its so simple, but it says everything.
Hello.. I don't mean to disturb you. But, would you mind sharing what you made of those lines..? What's your takeaway.. When you say 'it's says everything yet nothing. Feel free to not respond. Thank you.
...or "serenity" 🤷♂️
It literally means jack squat but the line fit there so thats what you get....
Forgive me but how could you say something so ignorant about someone else’s art? Songs are poetry and poetry is so subjective, that line means something to the artist and to the listeners who interpret their own meaning. It’s almost like she’s breathing that person away in her own mind, “and now breathe deep I’m inhaling, you and I there’s air in between” there is air in between her and the subject of the song, she’s emotionally detaching herself from that person. That’s just my interpretation, like I said the artist’s could be completely different.
'You and I, there's and inbetween' wouldn't really work. Anyway, so air... plenty of that around. Full of invisible sub-atomic particles dancing around us and also not. Air... it's so vague
i just saw her in the grammys red carpet 5 minutes ago and im already in love lol
I just did the exact same thing!!!!!!
Sammeee
Sameeeee
The nostalgia this song brings is unmatched!!! Truly a masterpiece ♥︎♥︎♥︎ love you Maggie
Here from heartstopper.. Love this song 💕
The voice brought me here. She's so amazing! Didn't know it was already 4 years since!
Those guys were just goin' at it.

Fvck that. Being gay is punishable by deaf in several countries. American gays should stop crying about gay rights when they get treated like kings
Dwayne Pitt for one its death*. Second of all, we still CONSTANTLY get discriminated against for our sexuality; two guys kissing in a music video doesn't mean we get treated like kings, if anything, it shows that the artist is a supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. Your comment is foolishness.
You should be punished for spelling "death" as "deaf". Get back in the basement troll!
Yes, because the only person in the world permitted to object to their circumstances is the one most downtrodden person there ever was. And since he or she probably lived thousands of years ago, no one should ever complain again. Do I have that right?
Absurd, Dwayne. Just absurd.
Lyrics
I was walking through icy streams
That took my breath away
Moving slowly through westward water
Over glacial plains
And I walked off you
And I walked off an old me
Oh me! Oh my! I thought it was a dream
So it seemed
And now, breathe deep, I'm inhaling
You and I, there's air in between
Leave me be, I'm exhaling
You and I, there's air in between
Ooh, ooh...
You and I, there's air in between
Ooh, ooh...
Cut my hair so I could rock back and forth
Without thinking of you
Learn to talk and say whatever I wanted to
And I walked off you
And I walked off an old me
Oh me! Oh my! I thought it was a dream
So it seemed
And now, breathe deep, I'm inhaling
You and I, there's air in between
Leave me be, I'm exhaling
You and I, there's air in between
Ooh, ooh...
You and I, there's air in between
Ooh, ooh...
You and I, there's air in between

Thank you

Heartstopper 😍
I listened to the Pharrel Masterclass and I was suprised by Pharrel's comments. There are artists who combine folkloric with dance music really well. I just feel Pharrel was so blown away by her natural talent and the total completeness of the production values, he just couldn't think quickly enough to actually say that - he just didn't say a lot because he was in shock!
@Maggie Rogers love it Maggie. Heard it first time today and it's amazing
"And now, breathe deep, I'm inhaling...you and I, there's air in between...leave me be, I'm exhaling, you and I there's air in between"
Not going to lie, the singing is amazing and the dancing is too, this video is more real than a lot that i've seen. Thank you Maggie for being you.
This song never gets old
Anyone else get the insanely fabulous Lorde dancing vibe from her
Yes, also Aurora kinda dancing vibe also...
yes
Afia Oduro-Manu it's like abstract dancing. dancing to the beat you feel
Afia Oduro-Manu no because lorde has shitty dances trying to be quirky hip
speaking of Lorde she just dropped a new single
Just finding this due to Reddit post and I'm so thankful I did! Absolutely beautiful
the tiny desk is even better imo, but I think they took it down
7 years late to the party. Truly one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
I was so sad and this music just saved me

Without a doubt one of the most beautiful, deeply meaningful songs I've ever heard. Unique sound paired with an experience we all can connect with. Beautiful.
This song will always have my heart.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. ❤️
simply beautiful and authentic
Eileen Shan Zou authentic? lmao
Are you new in alternative music?
God she's so naturally beautiful
yes sir
@Adele Eleda Yes.
Her soul is transparent ...... it shines through her ....... True beauty 👌🏼💜✨♥️🙌🏽😍
This beat is still so sick and ahead of it’s time !
FIVE YEARS AGO? This song was before it’s time and deserves so much
I am someone who listens mostly the 70s & 80s because im really disillusioned with modern music. But this here is different. Finally something good and fresh!
It is refreshing to see an artist express themselves exactly how they wish, versus falling into the cookie-cutter mold. If I had four thumbs, I would put them all up!
One of the best pop songs of the last 10 years!

Ive been thinking the "Leave me be" part was "A feeling" for at least a year now.
Thank for the lyrics!!
Thank you Francisco from San Francisco for bringing me to this gem of a song!
This song is five years ago. I discovered her five years ago. I’m proud! 🥲
Same. Actually bought the cd immediately after. I've owned physical media of this song for 5 years.. Lol
I swear I connect to this song in a spiritual way. And I've only felt that way a couple of times!
I can't be the only one who gets emotional when I hear this song.
TheDirtymikenation you're not bro
My mom put on the interview thing with parallel (I think that’s his name) and I got emotional lol
from a trending video on facebook with Pharrell to watching a random dance competition video featuring this song... and now I'm here
I just found this song and i realised its in heartsopper!
hearstopper ☺️❤️🎶
Came here from American Idol. I needed to hear the whole song.. and I’m not disappointed at all. Love it!
Oh Maggie, every time I watch this, I’m thankful for her creativity and artistic vision. It’s so refreshing. Gives me hope for music, art, and frankly life. Thanks Maggie!
Came back here after watching Episode 3 of Heartstopper. Such a cool vibe and the perfect song for that episode.
The video and music is so 80s! Simple yet captivating... I love it!!!
i think i love her
Just Murray more the idea of her
join the long queue
I love this. I see how this was inspired by her experience studying abroad, I also think she was letting go of someone and using the experience hence - you and I, there’s air in-between 👏🏽👏🏽smart and beautiful lyrics
Today is my first day hearing you. I had to stop mid song, rewind and get my headphones cause this is special.
Still loving this song, and whats better than knowing everyone in the video are friends, that's real!!
Your physical form is beautiful. Your music is magic. Thanks for giving me such pleasure and joy. Your talent is unspeakably divine.
This is cooler than I ever imagined. Thank you!
