This song is so calming in comparison to the other songs. I believe that’s why the song is titled, “Recess”. It’s a song that gives us a break from all the craziness and chaos in the rest of the album. The same way recess in elementary school gives children’s minds a break from the stress of school.
It’s because it’s the last song of the playlist. Some people start the playlist but end up having to stop listening to their music to do something else so they don’t get to the end. Happens to me all the time in between classes
definitely i stan billie and melanie but melanie deserves at least 17 million subscribers she wrote the songs, wrote the film, acted professionally for probably the first time, edited, danced, directed. in what logic should she get less than a half of billie’s subscribers?!
Moonlight Grande That’s just sad. I stan both of them, but the one I like more is Melanie. Billie’s songs have no meaning, and they are all depressing.
I agree! She has really helped me especially when I was going through pretty serious mental health issues in 2019 and 2020 with her albums! Definitely my favorite singer since 2018 when I discovered her.
Es cierto um dia mientras lavava los platos (hoy) me dio no se como ansiedad o no se y casualmente estaba escuchando musica y cuando me paso eso de la ansiedad o no se comenso a sonar recess y me calme casi de inmediato
"If you need a break, someone'll take your place." As a scholar, the pressure my parents put on me is insane, and what the fuck, this song just resonates with me so much.
This song is about thinking about yourself before you let others fuck you over and I like it cause sometimes I just need to take a break from all this academic pressure
yeah but that's opinion, can't yell at people for having different favorite songs lol also lyric videos usually get more views than the original video, so it may not actually be underrated y'know
I swear, this girl is the most underrated singer EVER, her songs are godly. She needs to be noticed more! I literally had a whole Melanie Martinez phase that lasted 2 years. She has such a beautiful voice, she makes the best songs. Thank you Melanie
As someone who struggles with depression and has to take a lot of mental health breaks to keep going, this song really resonated with me. Saying that it’s okay to take a break, to take a recess, is important 💕. The scene in the movie really resonated with me too. All of those students being forced to do something they didn’t want to do by being forced to dance. They all say they can’t keep going, that their legs are so tired. Feels a lot like when you’re burnt out and depressed but you have to keep going because that’s what society expects of you. Such a powerful message to say it’s okay to call for a break 👏🏻
Reminder 1 . Don't let them fuck you Reminder 2. Don't let them try Reminder 3. Don't let them hurt you Reminder 4. If you need a break someone will take your place Reminder 5. People are gonna tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes.
This song makes me feel nostalgic. Some parts of the lyrics make me feel like melanie is reflecting on her past. Like moving on to a new chapter in your life.
I wished high school sweetheart that melanie was dancing with the boy instead i think it will fit the theme of the song but recess was good song for some reason i get carousel vibes from this song

@@trialerrorsharer9398 mhm, and parents act like mental disorders don't exist or something whereas it is very real, especially for kids who have mounts of pressure to do well on their shoulders. this is how kids end up turning into alcoholics and "failures" because they don't even want to try because of how they are made to feel like they are gonna fail. honestly people need to get off gen z's back, we already have to clean up the mess that they made of earth smh
@@husseinabdelsattar2418 no no no, its fine. youre completely right, parents act like the world revolves around them. they believe that just because theyre older, they think that children dont feel the same emotions as they do. they think that kids are just little bundles of joy and energy that have no emotion and work for them when their lazy asses dont wanna get up. its not like that at all. children are human beings just like adults. they feel the same pain, they bleed, and, they feel emotions just like adults do. im 14 currently but at the age of 5, i was diagnosed with anxiety. parents really need to get over themselves and open their goddamn eyes.
To be fair K-12 debuted higher than Cry Baby. Cry Baby debuted at #6 and K-12 at #3. K-12 also had each song reach 40M streams on Spotify much faster than Cry Baby
@snazzy silas if you had half a v Brain you would stop hating on Melanie in the comments the crybabies will come for you and I'm one of them so shut the fuck up
This whole song makes me think about how I saw one specific moment in different parts of my life. At the moment I was just a kid, I had gum tangled in my curls, I was crying, not understanding why things were good for my classmates and so bad for me (undiagnosed ADHD and Autism) wondering what did I ever do to deserve being hit and laughed at. My mom was taking the gum out with ice and a curly hair brush. Telling me to not let them mess with me, to not give them attention and just prove them that I’m better than their weird childish obsession with making me suffer. At 13 I realized that it wasn’t my fault, they were making fun of things I couldn’t change, I remembered that moment in a deja vu, I was sitting in the bathroom while my mom would help me take off all the leaves that got stuck in my hair when they threw me in a pile of leaves and dirt. She’d tell me to not let those stupid behaviors hurt me, because if I’m hurt, they win. If I cry, I’m giving them exactly what they wanted all along. If I hide, I make them more powerful than me. And that’s not what we want, right? At 16, now, I understand what that “we” means. A generational trauma caused by bullying and undiagnosed ADHD. My mom was bullied her whole life. And so did my grandma. And her mom. And the story just repeated itself for ages. I, shamefully, did the same thing to my younger cousins before I understood how this behavior can be toxic and harmful, making us force ourselves to be “stronger than our bullies” by not showing emotions and ignoring them and trying to convince ourselves that if we ask for help, they “win”. Telling them that they should prove themselves better than their bullies, all while doing the stupid tradition of taking stuff out of their hairs. I hope I’m being able to reverse that and break the chain of generational traumatized ADHDs
Its probably not about this but, not only is this my fave song ever but it speaks alot it me. As someone with ADHD and acts really childish and stupid at times... any critique or negative comment makes me really upset and sometime's I get random bursts of anger... The "recess, I'm tired" genuinely helps me, it reminds me of my fave thing to do... play and relax.... thanks mele 💛
I have autism and my emotions are pretty intense. I went to the field with my friends and went to the loud water gutter. We threw small stones down there to here the quiet calming clanks. It calmed down my intense emotions and they all knew it. We also used to say " Ayo Pennywise! You there?! " We were just a couple of friends that didn't have to care about what other people thought. All we did was laugh and hug. And talk about my special interest, My Hero Academia!
I love how K12 has such a huge contrast with Crybaby but I love how some songs on this album would totally mesh with songs from Crybaby. Like this totally reminds me of Training Wheels and I looooovve it so much.
Willi Wildfang literally. They be taking breaks liberally lol. But I need a break too in the game. Like that’s when there’s new evidence being presented. Break drama time, boi!
Someone at the trilogy tour gave me a bracelet with the recess tittle on it. Recently I've been really burnt out so this has become my favorite song. She was so sweet, I wish I had something for her.
This song hurts bc my grandma use to say the same things to me and now she's gone and I can still hear her words "don't let them take advantage of you baby you have a big heart but don't let it get filled with hurt your a giver stay away from the takers" now im full of hurt because I'm constantly giving to people who take advantage of me

The fact that this song is in 3/4 is so cool! Not only does it fit great in the movie, but it also means that you can technically learn waltz this song! Not to mention the GREAT lyrics that most of us relate to!

Ik it’s pretty annoying how they compare two good singers with each other I mean...Billie’s more boyish and Melanie’s more girly...everyone has theyr own style
6/26/20 7:00pm, im currently listening to this song on my way to my graduation ceremony. i’ve made so many memories with my friends, teachers, family, etc. its been fun, but now i must move on. feeling thankful 💕
In the ‘Wheels on the Bus’, there was a ‘Class Fight’ that’s so bad that ‘The Principal’ had to intervene. We missed the ‘Show & Tell’ and one had to go to the ‘Nurse’s Office’ because of this fight. Despite this, we were able to have our ‘Drama Club’ class; however I ate a ‘Strawberry Shortcake’, and the ‘Lunchbox Friends’ drank ‘Orange Juice’, leaving the three of us in ‘Detention’ because of that stupid and uptight ‘Teacher’s Pet’. We saw the ‘Highschool Sweethearts’ and we waited ‘till ‘Recess’ so we can go out of this classroom. Luckily, at least we went out of detention because of a ‘Fire Drill’.
I wish I was close to melanie because atleast someone can understand what I feel in the Inside, Because my family doesn't and won't understand me, I even wish sometimes that mel was my sister or atleast my cousin because all I need to heal emotionally and mentally is her Voice and her Wisdom
It makes me so angry that Melanie Martinez is so underrated. People I know won’t even give her a chance because she isn’t “mainstream”. It just feels so unfair, but I remind myself she’s still an amazing artist with a pretty big fanbase. Her songs have actual meaning to them, while other songs seem to just be the same thing- breakups and dating- with slightly different notes.
For me, this is one of my favourites along with Strawberry Shortcake, Lunchbox Friends, Orange Juice & Detention I love the relaxing style she puts here, but such a pity that this song is one of her most underrated songs Also, I noticed that something that it haves in common with Training Wheels (From Cry Baby era) and Glued (From After School), is that they are underrated and even being relaxing songs they have bad words there, XD
This is very emotional when she said *Just remember don’t let them hurt you* Just reminds me of what my mum and dad told me to do when i kept getting bullied

"People gonna try to tell your fine" I relate to much my mom laughed at me when I asked to be tested for depression
It relates to kids kinda. You know when you get hurt by another kid and they try to get you not to tell.
@@trialerrorsharer9398 mhm, and parents act like mental disorders don't exist or something whereas it is very real, especially for kids who have mounts of pressure to do well on their shoulders. this is how kids end up turning into alcoholics and "failures" because they don't even want to try because of how they are made to feel like they are gonna fail. honestly people need to get off gen z's back, we already have to clean up the mess that they made of earth smh
sorry for the rant, had to be said
@@husseinabdelsattar2418 no no no, its fine. youre completely right, parents act like the world revolves around them. they believe that just because theyre older, they think that children dont feel the same emotions as they do. they think that kids are just little bundles of joy and energy that have no emotion and work for them when their lazy asses dont wanna get up. its not like that at all. children are human beings just like adults. they feel the same pain, they bleed, and, they feel emotions just like adults do. im 14 currently but at the age of 5, i was diagnosed with anxiety. parents really need to get over themselves and open their goddamn eyes.
I can relate so much your not alone

Everyone: let's get Crybaby on the billboard charts
K-12: what about me?!
To be fair K-12 debuted higher than Cry Baby. Cry Baby debuted at #6 and K-12 at #3. K-12 also had each song reach 40M streams on Spotify much faster than Cry Baby

Have you ever started crying because someone's vocals were so pretty? That was me a few seconds into the song.

I saw your comment under billie's song.

"in my grandma's lap and drowning in her perfume" hit me hard, I miss her🥲 but two years later and I'm still listening to this song, it never gets old
i love you soo much, i just watched the film and i cried, it's so meaningful to me
when she says "just remember" something happens to my heart
Me too. ,_,
I PAUSED DOIN HW FOR THIS. WORTH BEING SLEEP DEPRIVED!!!!IM CRYING
Better pause your hw for it's *Recess* TIME!
As soon as i got let out at work i went home & listened to some of the songs but i missed most of the movie 💔😞
I didn't even do my homework
@Edlyn Ng nah I actually need my hw to teach me cause my teachers don't.

This whole song makes me think about how I saw one specific moment in different parts of my life.
At the moment I was just a kid, I had gum tangled in my curls, I was crying, not understanding why things were good for my classmates and so bad for me (undiagnosed ADHD and Autism) wondering what did I ever do to deserve being hit and laughed at. My mom was taking the gum out with ice and a curly hair brush. Telling me to not let them mess with me, to not give them attention and just prove them that I’m better than their weird childish obsession with making me suffer.
At 13 I realized that it wasn’t my fault, they were making fun of things I couldn’t change, I remembered that moment in a deja vu, I was sitting in the bathroom while my mom would help me take off all the leaves that got stuck in my hair when they threw me in a pile of leaves and dirt. She’d tell me to not let those stupid behaviors hurt me, because if I’m hurt, they win. If I cry, I’m giving them exactly what they wanted all along. If I hide, I make them more powerful than me. And that’s not what we want, right?
At 16, now, I understand what that “we” means. A generational trauma caused by bullying and undiagnosed ADHD. My mom was bullied her whole life. And so did my grandma. And her mom. And the story just repeated itself for ages.
I, shamefully, did the same thing to my younger cousins before I understood how this behavior can be toxic and harmful, making us force ourselves to be “stronger than our bullies” by not showing emotions and ignoring them and trying to convince ourselves that if we ask for help, they “win”. Telling them that they should prove themselves better than their bullies, all while doing the stupid tradition of taking stuff out of their hairs.
I hope I’m being able to reverse that and break the chain of generational traumatized ADHDs
If this song slapped me, I would say thank you.

Its probably not about this but, not only is this my fave song ever but it speaks alot it me.
As someone with ADHD and acts really childish and stupid at times... any critique or negative comment makes me really upset and sometime's I get random bursts of anger...
The "recess, I'm tired" genuinely helps me, it reminds me of my fave thing to do... play and relax.... thanks mele 💛
Same 😔✊
I have depression
Same here spirit friend. ❤️
Same honestly
I have autism and my emotions are pretty intense.
I went to the field with my friends and went to the loud water gutter. We threw small stones down there to here the quiet calming clanks. It calmed down my intense emotions and they all knew it. We also used to say
" Ayo Pennywise! You there?! "
We were just a couple of friends that didn't have to care about what other people thought. All we did was laugh and hug. And talk about my special interest, My Hero Academia!
i want this to be the first song my child ever hears. its so powerful & an amazing message.
the swearing?
This song is so comforting to me.

Ikrrrr. Like,, it's telling you to be strong. It's a great feeling :)))
I love how K12 has such a huge contrast with Crybaby but I love how some songs on this album would totally mesh with songs from Crybaby. Like this totally reminds me of Training Wheels and I looooovve it so much.
As someone who tries to lead with depression... wow

I was too young to see the truth
In my grandma's lap, I'm drowning in her perfume
Too naive to even care
'Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair
[Pre-Chorus]
People gonna say
If you need a break, someone'll take your place
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
(Just remember)
[Chorus]
Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
Don't let them try (Ooh)
Don't let them hurt you, baby
Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
[Verse 2]
Sittin' in my room, looking at all I've done
Everything I wanted has come to fruition
I should be happy but I can't get out my bed
Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head

That literally is making me cry
In the ‘Wheels on the Bus’, there was a ‘Class Fight’ that’s so bad that ‘The Principal’ had to intervene. We missed the ‘Show & Tell’ and one had to go to the ‘Nurse’s Office’ because of this fight. Despite this, we were able to have our ‘Drama Club’ class; however I ate a ‘Strawberry Shortcake’, and the ‘Lunchbox Friends’ drank ‘Orange Juice’, leaving the three of us in ‘Detention’ because of that stupid and uptight ‘Teacher’s Pet’. We saw the ‘Highschool Sweethearts’ and we waited ‘till ‘Recess’ so we can go out of this classroom. Luckily, at least we went out of detention because of a ‘Fire Drill’.
You forgot fire drill

It makes me so angry that Melanie Martinez is so underrated. People I know won’t even give her a chance because she isn’t “mainstream”. It just feels so unfair, but I remind myself she’s still an amazing artist with a pretty big fanbase. Her songs have actual meaning to them, while other songs seem to just be the same thing- breakups and dating- with slightly different notes.
she's just doesn't make music she's an artist

I appreciate and value your opinion. Although I do like detention and OJ more, I do think this is a good song. I kind of like all of k-12 tbh
For me, this is one of my favourites along with Strawberry Shortcake, Lunchbox Friends, Orange Juice & Detention
I love the relaxing style she puts here, but such a pity that this song is one of her most underrated songs
Also, I noticed that something that it haves in common with Training Wheels (From Cry Baby era) and Glued (From After School), is that they are underrated and even being relaxing songs they have bad words there, XD
This is very emotional when she said
*Just remember don’t let them hurt you*
