This band has been one of my favorites since I started listening. But, even though I can't sing, Haley says something here in her address to the audience that I will sing Halleluyah to. She says that even though kindness is most of the time looked at as a weakness (and sets you up for exploitation), don't let it stop you from being kind. The point is to be kind. We can learn to not be exploited, but lets not unlearn kindness. Just perfect.
Hayleys speech ment a lot to me. I try to be my best and be nice, but people always use me. I got in a really abusive friendship and never have I once stood up for myself. people will never stop unless you tell them to stop. one time I was running for the same friend who was trying to beat me up at school and a girl told her to stop. my friend walked away in shame. if it wasn't for that one girl I could have got hurt even more that day. Stand up for others, and stand up for your self :)
My school's starting in 9 hours and i just want to thank whoever posted this and Hayley herself. What she said is something i've always tried to keep in mind but struggle and having my thoughts validated before such a big day is just amazing. Thank you Paramore and thanks to everybody who supports them.
I can't make my own decisions Or make any with precision Well, maybe you should tie me up So I don't go where you don't want me You say that I been changing That I'm not just simply aging Yeah, how could that be logical? Just keep on cramming ideas down my throat Oh, oh, oh, oh You don't have to believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I'll point you to the mirror If God's the game that you're playing Well, we must get more acquainted Because it has to be so lonely To be the only one who's holy It's just my humble opinion But it's one that I believe in You don't deserve a point of view If the only thing you see is you Oh, oh, oh, oh You don't have to believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I'll point you to the mirror This is the last second chance (I'll point you to the mirror) I'm half as good as it gets (I'll point you to the mirror) I'm on both sides of the fence (I'll point you to the mirror) Without a hint of regret I'll hold you to it I know you don't believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I'll point you to the mirror I know you won't believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I'll point you to the mirror
If I were there I'd literally sob so hard & cry my life. Felt that on a spiritual level, PLUS her staring right at the camera made me even more emotional & I wanna cry so hard now. What a queen, we stan!!! 😍😭
She's absolutely right. People usually take kindness for weakness. Love is underrated despite how powerful it is and, sadly, it's often used to manipulate people. Regardless.... pretty much the best group ever, and the best singer ever,. At least as good asit gets when it comes to pop-rock music. They've written some of best songs i've ever heard in my life, and I hope they keep on kicking a$$e$ for many many years to come. ❤
I assume this diatribe is in relation to Jeremy's lawsuit against her/Paramore/Haley Williams inc.. So Jeremy's been a second class citizen in his own band for years, and that's "kindness"? Anyway, this is a really good song, but you have to wonder if that "boot in the face" she mentioned about Josh in the interview years ago was really a boot in HIS face along with anyone else in the band. You see, when someone reaches the level of fame Hayley has, they start thinking that allowing people to even operate in their sphere of brilliance is "kindness". It's not uncommon for famous and talented people to think this way. She's been getting a lot of attention since she was a teenager and a lot of the goings on with her old band mates wreak of them dealing with a narcissist and finally having enough of it.
TheDmonet Well Josh apologised later on and I think they were all really young and misunderstood each other back then. They basically lived together, the band, because they toured so much and because they were so young it's not difficult to understand why conflict would arise. Zac mostly seemed like he wanted a break from the band because he never saw his family which is why he's been able to rejoin the band. I don't think he was as mad as Josh. As for Jeremy, I don't know. He seems more angry about finances and songwriter rights, it doesn't seem as personal. But who knows. Either way, I think it's more complex than Hayley being a narcissist. She probably has an ego, you have to to be able to perform and get success like that at 18, so she might have a part in the conflict but yeah. just my theory.
Josh tried to destroy her when he left, so that was not cool any way you slice it. He burned his bridges, Zac didn't. When you look at the number of tour dates these people did from 2005 or whenever on, it's not hard to think someone would be homesick. Averaging close to 200 shows per year, you are basically never home. Zac took a few years off and now is back. It still doesn't change the fact that Paramore is Hayley Williams incorporated, and in that sense was never a real band, even though I"m sure it was in the eyes of Jeremy Davis and the Farro brothers ..and their fans....until the hard reality got drilled in their heads. And there is no question she has an ego and loves the camera, much more so then when you look back in say 2007 gigs, you can see here personality changing from "chick in a rock band" to pop star. She's one Max Martin song away from the full transition..which she is aware of and is thus avoiding. An immense talent but with the amount of attention she's received, it's hard to keep it from changing you.
maybe she wasn't talking about him??? you can't say Hayleys a narrsist ether, she's not. all lead singers get the most attention of the band, it's sad but it's true. Kellin Quinn from SWS, Brandon urine PATD, Andy biersack BVB, I could name all the bands in the world. hayley calls herself "Hayley Williams from paramore" she doesn't want people to think of her career as 1 person she wants the rest of the band to get attention. sorry for bad Grammer btw

this should be renamed to "Hayley makes deep-ass speech with side music"
Instablaster...
just teared up at this vid. She looks straight into your soul saying those words, it hits hard, and it hits home.
+SasPotato e yes.
it's cooler to be kind.
Nice pfp

I can't make my own decisions
Or make any with precision
Well, maybe you should tie me up
So I don't go where you don't want me
You say that I been changing
That I'm not just simply aging
Yeah, how could that be logical?
Just keep on cramming ideas down my throat
Oh, oh, oh, oh
You don't have to believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror
If God's the game that you're playing
Well, we must get more acquainted
Because it has to be so lonely
To be the only one who's holy
It's just my humble opinion
But it's one that I believe in
You don't deserve a point of view
If the only thing you see is you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
You don't have to believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror
This is the last second chance
(I'll point you to the mirror)
I'm half as good as it gets
(I'll point you to the mirror)
I'm on both sides of the fence
(I'll point you to the mirror)
Without a hint of regret
I'll hold you to it
I know you don't believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror
I know you won't believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror
You know that your songs are a weapon. I Love this song. 🦁
Her looking straight at the camera makes this much more impactful.
If I were there I'd literally sob so hard & cry my life. Felt that on a spiritual level, PLUS her staring right at the camera made me even more emotional & I wanna cry so hard now. What a queen, we stan!!! 😍😭

How can someone be that beautiful?
Cant stop crying.

At least we're family-
Honey oh my god ahhhhhhhhhhh
And that kindness thing? That hit me hard
I love those words too :D
Damn her voice is something..... really,really something. One of the best in rock

TheDmonet Of corse Hayley would have an ego, LOOK AT HER!! If I was that stunning I would have an huge ego too
but I do think the band deserves more attention not just Hayley
jesus christ if you're going to sound this bad, don't talk for 80 mins.
she doesn't sound bad at all. she's just tired from all the jumping which affects her singing a little.
Nor Sabrina don't mind him , his a fan of justin bieber
You REALLY don't need to drag Jesus into this!
