    Honestly, you can feel so much pain and misery in her voice. And that is so rare and beautiful at the same time. It just makes you wanna hug her and tell her, that we have all been there (and maybe yet even are).

    alice 💔 having grown up watching your covers throughout much of my "girlhood" - this one hit particularly hard. your take on this song was gut-wrenching in the best way. it just felt so honest and raw. also, following along your journey - with your relationship to music changing and how you talk so highly of finding meaning in the ordinary made this feel so personal. listening to this and 'memos from maine' back to back is so bittersweet!
    the songs you write, as well as your sit-down chats on your second channel are really helping me during this transitionary period of life right now. feeling incredibly grateful right now to exist in a time where universality in lived experiences can be so easily found. you art is part of that. thank you, x

    I used to float, now I just fall down
    I used to know but I'm not sure now
    What I was made for
    What was I made for?
    Takin' a drive, I was an ideal
    Looked so alive, turns out, I'm not real
    Just something you paid for
    What was I made for?
    'Cause I, I
    I don't know how to feel
    But I wanna try
    I don't know how to feel
    But someday I might
    Someday I might
    When did it end? All the enjoyment
    I'm sad again, don't tell my boyfriend
    It's not what he's made for
    What was I made for?
    'Cause I, 'cause I
    I don't know how to feel
    But I wanna try
    I don't know how to feel
    But someday I might
    Someday I might
    Think I forgot how to be happy
    Something I'm not, but something I can be
    Something I wait for
    Something I'm made for
    Something I'm made for

      If she belted it wouldn’t make sense with this song. You must understand or don’t. But if you don’t understand get educated in music. Some things just don’t sound great together. Plus Billie can do whatever she wants. Songs have no rules.

      @@A.B_equestrian umm, I know music. And I know that Billie could have belted if she wanted, but she chose not to, giving the song an ethereal sound. Also Billie was singing it higher than Alice, so it is going to be sang differently. I don’t know why you’re getting defensive for Billie, didn’t say anything negative. Billie is actually my favourite artist. You must have misunderstood what I was saying somehow..

    Something really touching about this video to me was your little smile at the end. Because, me too. When I listen to this song and when I sing it, I always, ALWAYS feel better at the end because of the last lyric, which I assume is the same reason you're smiling too. I am so glad we all collectively connect to every part of this song and that we all know, yes, you might not be happy now but my GOD: You can be. You will be. It is what we were made for. I don't know you personally and we probably live on completely separate parts of the world but I feel so connected to you right now. Incredibly beautiful. As is your singing. Thank you and have a wonderful year.
