UDIDNDJDKSKSSSKIDDBSKSIWWVAHSJDBND WHAT FINNEEEEEEEAS🤩
@FINNEAS I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
Finneas is so underrated that I'm physically hurt.
IKRR
IKRRRR THIS ALBUM PROVES IT
EXACTLY
The man has 6 Grammys....
@@jonthebarista 5 was for Billie's music and 1 for production. His own music is criminally underrated.
Someone Else's Star is a music for Billie. Finneas was for a while confused about his own feelings for guiding Billie's path to stardom while he lagged behind. However, he realized shining someone way wasn't as bad and painful as he thought, so he found value in being "someone's guiding star."
Everything I Wanted (by Billie), is a song she did for his brother. In this song she talks about how "someone" helped her to get everything she wanted, however, with the pressure of fame she didn't know what to do and Finneas continued by her side helping her in how she should act, behave and even enjoy the moments in the right way. In other words, he was a guiding star for her, a north.
oh wow i got this too 100:)
I kept thinking "someone else's star" was about Billie when I first listened to Finneas's album. But I just thought that I didn't know if it was actually true
This is beautiful.
everyhing i wanted isnt just about Finneas helping her, it's about her having a dream about suicide and actually thinking that's what I want, and Finneas helping her
this album is extra unique cuz ITS ONLY ONE PERSON WHOS BEHIND ALL OF THE SONGS!!! like isn’t that insane
@@josephzuniga3928 sorry i didn’t know about her!!
You haven't heard SOPHIE and it shows
not really, there are many artists like that... Grimes, panda bear...
i remember the 1st song of him that i heard was i lost a friend ( fav till today) then i saw the credits coz the lyrics were sending me N WHAT I SAY BLEW MY MIND AWAY 🤯 PERFORMED, WRITTEN, PRODUCED MY FINNEAS 🤯 i was so blow away that i told all my friends about it 😂 ive never seen anyone do that that's when i realised how talented he is 😻
so bad
i cant relate. so bad.
the fact that finneas is submissive and isn't afraid to show it as a straight man is so uplifting
True
a proud bottom 😭
@@manuba_ LMFAOOOOOOOO
THIS HAD ME DEAD😫😭 it's so true
what
The way Finneas doesn't get the hype he is so worthy of is legit criminal. An actual mastermind. Carrying modern production.
It’s crazy to me how Billie is one of the biggest artists in the world right now, but Finneas somehow remains so underappreciated.
his solo music is lackluster, but as a producer? he might as well be the most famous one on the planet rn. no other artist’s producer gets as much appreciation as he does to the point where they dismiss her work and say he does everything
@@crickets6114 his solo music is WHAT??
@@Victor-ch6xp traah
@@crickets6114 Sounds a bit like you're annoyed at the credit he gets. Don't get me wrong here, I don't like Finneas that much either, but if I poured my soul into something and someone used the word trash to describe it, if they demanded respect in their lives it'd be kind of hypocritical to me. I know you're on the internet but still.
I love the work of both of them, but i don’t think finneas being underappreciated is a problem, is just views doesnt mean he work isnt good.
i think that Finnes and Taylor Swift gotta make music together, they'll open all my chakras for sure
I feel like he would be an amazing producer for some of the Reputation vault songs.
@@Ethanx0 yeah!!
Bro all my dreams would come true in that moment
I definitely agree!
I couldn't physically rank the songs of the album. The whole thing is a mastepiece. Finneas is literally so little appreciated, he deserves the whole world.
I am so happy that you chose this album even though there are other more popular albums which could easily get you more views. Because people are not paying enough attention to Finneas but he is sooo talented and underrated
THISSSS
same
In "Love is Pain" when he sings about having a dream about his mom and dad, I felt like Finneas just got into my mind and took that from me because for as long as I can remember myself I've always had this happy dream about my mom and dad, but my dad passed away last year and I realised that that dream is never going to become true... and then I hear the lyrics about wishing that dying wasn't mandatory... When I tell you that my soul left my body completely during that moment when I first heard that lyric. Don't think I've ever felt such personal connection to any other song or lyric as with this one, Finneas is truly a genius.
Wish it wasnt mandatory dying are lyrics that brought me to my knees.. It's a song I've only recently fallen in love with. I can relate because I lost my younger brother 2 years ago. FINNEAS' music is sooo deep and since my brother has passed all his songs hit a lot harder.
You really need to hear Blood Harmony IT'S A MASTERPIECE
yes he does omg
agreeed
Yes! 😭
He definitely does. BH ran so Optimist could fly.
They both are so good. Blood harmony was amazing
The fact that Around My Neck was his favorite one 😭😭 honestly not surprised, it's truly iconic
I feel like Finneas is only known for his work he does with Billie, when he really should get more recognition for his personal work 🥺
He has said so many times he doesn’t want to be as famous as her. All his shows on tour right now are selling out. He’s happy.
But he DOES get recognition for his own work lol
Im glad he got nominated for Best New Artist 🤘🏼
@@thebloodybaron7 yeah, idk why people always think about the views, like is not like he is unappreciated
@@lucascordeiro9082he isn’t some small artist he is always going to be known and he’s not underrated if he had under 5 million listeners then yes he is underrated but he’s not.
you need to listen to his singles, they are so good. college, luck pusher, heaven, claudia, ALL OF EM !
Yessss! I am a massive hoe for the song ‘New girl’ ✋🏼😩
@@emsiee2457 BITTTCCHHHH new girl slaps HARD😫🖐🏼🖐🏼
and also Can't Wait to be Dead I love that song sm
@@emsiee2457 Yes! My favorite off of Blood Harmony. Saw him October of 2019 and will see him again in a few weeks. He’s so unbelievably talented. And his opener last time, Lauren Sanderson, was so good I’ll be seeing her the same week. Back to back sold out shows.
And Angel too!
I really do think that Finneas did a wise move putting peaches etude next to love is pain. Like, he wanted to extend the sadness brought by Love is pain. Also as a sort of rest and comfort after multiple bangers
Billie and Finneas gave us two absolutely amazing albums this year. Both are different but fuckin masterpieces. They're totally amazing apart and together. They're just super talented.
A petition to start a fan club for Troy's dad 😌
I’d join!
I feel like Finneas has the recognition he deserves when it comes to production. People don't talk about Billie's music without mentioning him, and the awards can't praise her stuff without praising who's behind those masterpieces. But when we're talking about Fin's own albums it's clear that he's still being so slept on... and it hurts right in my meow meow, because I can't stop thinking how confusing it must be for him... to be so acclaimed but so underrated at the same time :(
She always says like: WITHOUT FINNEAS I WOULD NEVER BE HERE
I love when she says that
I think he is happy, he dont need to be so famous to feel successful
@@lucascordeiro9082 you do have a point!
You’re videos literally always make me die of laughter
hope u come back to life and laugh some more lol
same 😂
Finneas doesn't get enough love but I am so happy that he gave us such a beautiful piece of work! It is literally perfect
He does get enough love
in my interpretation i think “someone else’s star” is about billie☹️ which is cute but i think its about how they both grew up and of their relationship just like “everything i wanted”
Knowing that Finneas wrote "What They'll Say About Us" about Nick Cordero, Amanda Kloots and their son Elvis, while Nick was fighting Covid only for him to pass away, makes this song all the more devastating.
I.WAS. LITERALLY. FLOORED. BY. THIS. ALBUM.
people think someone’s else’s star is generally about billie! it would honestly make so much sense if it was.
SAME!!!! that is my exact thought when I first heard that song and I can't not think about it this way now
finneas is so underrated it’s sad, he’s always seen as “billie eilish’s brother” and not just finneas. his music is amazing and deserves more recognitionz
FINNEAS IS SO UNDERRATED this album was an absolute masterpiece tbh
I listened to this whole album before watching this and wasn't phased. I feel like your reactions just *hit different* I don't know what it is but you give such a fresh perspective on what you think of each song. these videos make my day
That’s why I watch these videos because I’m so bad a paying attention to music unless I see a reaction of this
ikrrr
couldnt agree more
i loved this album but i totally agree with other albums for me. reaction videos makes me them sm better seeing the youtuber’s emotions going through it.
finneas is not only an amazingly talented musician but he is the kindest soul i’ve ever encountered he’s real he’s funny and caring
Do you know him? I mean are you friends? I think it would be strange to know someone famous. Especially, if you knew them before they were famous.
fin is literally so underrated
Your dad is so cute omg 😭 "let me hear it back!"
Finneas has been one of my fav artists since Blood Harmony
the kids are all dying really is an 'oh shit' moment
I'm actually ANGRY that Finneas isn't getting the love and recognition he DESERVES!
this album was just beautiful
i will never get over the editing of his videos **chef's kiss**
When i heard only a lifetime for the first time, i stopped my car and called my mom pronto THAT SONG MADE ME BABY CRIED SO HARD and then i arrived at love is pain and cried another round because it stabs at wounds i never knew existed. I was a mess at the end of this album 😊 but a beautiful-self-sustained-mess👍🏻
okay but why ‘peaches etude’ is like the best christmas tune?
Billie: don’t wast the time I don’t have
Finneas: don’t waste the time you have
FINNEAS is so underrated at times - I hope with his tour his popularity grows. Only A Lifetime is such a beautiful song
The kids are all dying is today’s protest song and I’m fucking here for it
i went to his concert the other night and i’ll tell u he sounds EXACTLY if not BETTER in person than he does in the recordings
this man goes through every emotion known to man listening to these albums.
hey, I thought I'd recommend a band here: - chase atlantic -, any album, they have the most insane production, pretty good vocals and interesting lyrics
omg yesss
I like the way you started this. Stating that when someone is brought up in similar environments their thoughts and processing are similar in ways too. Their music is SO similar but yet SO unique to each of them. Adore Finneas and Billie.
the way “the kids are all dying” is in the first episode of you season 4… troy manifested that
I can't with him hearing the start of Happy Now and going like "ooh this is gonna get dark" 💀
finneas and billie need to make an album together where their both singing lots then go on a tour
Troy just understands how music makes me feel and puts it in words he’s so fucking cool
20:20 "he likes the d- the key of d" I'm wheezing
I really think that Around My Neck is sort of connected to Billie's Oxytocin specifically with the post-chorus:
"I wanna do bad things to you.
I wanna make you yell.
I wanna do bad things to you.
Don't wanna treat you well"
The first time I heard Finneas yelling in this song, I automatically remember those lines from Billie.
i've been waiting for this one!!! finneas is so talented and so underrated!!
ps: you need to react to ashe's album Ashlyn too, she is also an underrated legend
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS ive literally been obsessed with this album since it came out and I’ve seen NO ONE talk about it
the whole entire "around my neck" segment was me when I first listened to that track... because DAMN
More people NEED to listen to this album
Peaches Etude had me in tears especially coming after love is pain… such an underrated artist
use this as the “Finneas is underrated” button!
His music is so well thought through and wow all the little details.
By far the best reaction channel. You know this album isn’t as popular as a lot of others but you still react because it SLAPS!
finneas is so underrated that it hurts
"Overreact! Is he talking about me?!?"
I died 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
FINNEAS is a lyrical genius at such a young age. Can’t wait to see what he’s up to next ❤️
I have been listening to this album on repeat since it came out. I cannot wait to see/hear your reaction
I've been waiting for this one!!!
Can't wait to see Girlfriend by THE DRIVER ERA literally such a great album
YESSS
no because you are actually my favourite channel ever, the amount of serotonin my brain produces when I watch your videos is unmatched (unless I’m listening to harry styles ofc)
as a ballet dancer, i would like to say that you slayed that "pierea"
I loved the dad insert lolll and these basic music theory lessons are so fun!!
Professor Haze!! Lol glad u diggin them!
Can I just sit down with you and literally listen and discuss this entire album front to back? Because I'm surrounded by people who don't know how to appreciate a good thing. This album is absolute genius, as Finneas is. I just saw his live in Seattle 2 nights ago and I am still flying high. Waited for him to get on the bus for 2 hours and he is the sweetest most humble human.
The song what they'll say about us is about Broadway star Nick Cordero battle and death from covid. His wife Amanda Kloots did IG stories daily throughout it. It's the most beautiful heartfelt tribute to someone he hadn't met but felt so much empathy from watching her journey, like the rest of us, he wrote this song and sent it to her. It is literally the most beautiful thing.
This album is one of the best album’s that I’ve ever heard and it is WAY too underrated and so is Finneas himself.
love your reactions, you're the one reaction youtuber I watch religiously because you just combine humour, enjoying the music and knowledge in the best way possible. Was really excited when I saw this video, Finneas's music is just amazing, been a fan ever since blood harmony and would love to see your reaction to it since it is still one of my fave albums and i listen to it all the time
I was at the second LA concert on his tour last week. this man is SO TALENTED.
Wow. I just listened to three solo songs from him for the first time (after hearing a few of the collabs before) and, rather than just listening to The 90s on repeat for three hours--clicked on the UA-cam recommendation of you. Thank you so much for letting us laugh and carry on past the tears with you here! And, of course, to dance with you.
Oh goodness. And yeah, the struggle of editing things while trying to hold your own interest on the contents is real. You definitely conquer it better than most of us.
I really struggle with listening to a full album because I can’t focus on the lyrics like that for some reason, so I love these videos because they really help me get a feel for what songs I want to listen too. Thank you.
Nobody ever beats the feels of 'a concert six months from now' for me. This is so underrated and people don't seem to get my enthousiasm until now
HE IS TOO UNDERRATED.. people DON’T appreciate his amazing production and lyrics
you should listen to wallows and why don’t we, they’re both not yet mainstream and i think you’d really like them :))
Wallows supremacy
Wallows🙌🏼
I recently started watching your videos and I am LOVING your reactions!
Yk finneas is insane for his production but what I rly loved in this one was THE PEN GAME!!! THE LYRICS WERE SO OVERWHELMING SOMETIMES
Bought tix to his show on a whim for my friends! we are big Billie fans and love his production. His songs sometimes feel very manicured but I totally dig his songs.
LET ME TELL YOU: FINNEAS LIVE IS INCREDIBLE! It was him switching keys/ guitar with pianist/guitar plus and a drummer
And he KILLED IT!
your energy is unmatched i love this reaction video
Your videos fill me with so much serotonin. Thank you for your service 🤝🏻
Idk how one youtuber can be responsible for introducing me to all my fave new music……bravo dude

UA-cam recommended me your video bc I've been listening to finneas a lot recently and I absolutely love the way you explain little details about the music, there are so many parts that I already enjoyed listening to but I now enjoy them even more bc I understand what happened there musically and feel like I can appreciate the beauty even more! Will definitely check out more videos!
