As someone who is on the aromantic spectrum the lyric "If I don't want anyone, then why do I feel so alone?" Truly speaks to me especially the fact that this song is simply about the idea of someone. I always wish for someone but it's not real it's an idea. Even stranger my aromate moved to California around the time of this release so "What time is it California?" really hits home. It's a beautiful music video Robbie and another hit song. Edit: Thank you all for 6.6k likes. I didn't think that many people would see and id be the top comment on my favorite song. Thanks for all the aro love!!
I don't mean any disrespect, what does it mean to be on the aromantiic spectrum? I think aromantic means no romantic love at all, so does being on the spectrum mean there's a sliiight chance of the person feeling romantic love? (sorry if this is disrespectful, I really dont mean it that way!! i don't really understand some sexualities,, but I'd like to ask when I can, to learn more >
@@BlanketsCorner Hey it's not disrespectful at all. Someone that is aromantic doesn't experience romantic attraction. Saying your on the aromantic spectrum is like that it's not black and white and it someone would be grey-romantic or demi-romantic. Robbie's lyric to me feels really lithromantic. Like feeling romantic attraction but only in theory.
yes!!! this song and video are comforting to me! so is just the idea of love lol. i never hear about anyone who’s on the aro grey or demi spectrum. i have no clue what i am it’s so confusing lmao.
I think Robbie’s also on the aromantic spectrum, which would explain why all his songs are so relatable to people who are also aro-spec :D So his songs could be used to describe either platonic love, or some of the romantic love aro-specs potentially feel (aegoromantic, lithromantic, demiromantic, etc)
My interpretation of this video is that the blue nosebleed basically represents mental health struggles, personal struggles, etc. basically any kind of negativity in that person's life. Robbie is dealing his own issues, while his partner is there to help him through them and help him grow as a person and get better. However, as we see at the end, she is also dealing with her own problems that she doesn't want to talk to him about, for fear of damaging things. Basically how us introverts are great at helping others but we don't like to reach out for help.
Brooo my interpretation is completely the opposite 😭😭😭 in my mind the blue nosebleed was his feelings for his partner, and every time they grow stronger the more he bleeds. “Throwing up brains through my mouth, yeah I’m thinking out loud things we won’t talk about” and it shows him throwing up blue in the sink. I think the things they don’t talk about is the romantic feelings that are there.(fear of ruining a friendship). it seemed like he is completely fallen with them. While they are just going with the motions. At the end when they finally bleed blue they seem surprised, while staring at Robbie picking flowers they may have realized their feelings for him :3 i may be reaching but when you have a “nosebleed” for someone it means you like them. And the color blue just gives me “peace, serenity, calm” vibes. But then again there are two different types of people in this world hehe and I am a hopeless romantic
@@yourlocalswiftie9772 he has had partners even tho hes aro and we dont really know much more so he could have one or maybe he doesnt, at the end of the day, its just a really cool song:D
Sometimes I feel worse because some of them are wholesome and their family and friends comfort and support them. Well mine, is just not like that at all
@@relaxedchads3310 someone who’s aromantic means they don’t experience romantic attraction!! there’s a whole spectrum of aromanticism that can vary between person to person :) not to be confused with asexual, meaning someone doesn’t experience sexual attraction, though those can coincide! however, it’s important to not automatically assume that someone who does not experience romantic attraction also does not experience sexual attraction, and vice versa. i’d advise you to do some research if you want to know more about aromanticism, but i hope this helped!!
I can't thank Robbie enough for his music, it's such a comfort to me that I feel guilty for being able to listen to it for free. Sometimes it brings hurtful memories but it helps me overcome them in a healthy way and let everything go. He changed so many lives and mine is one of them. I wish I could do something more but for now I just wanna say,, Thank you

THIS. I can’t explain it but whenever I listen to his music I feel like a kid again. I literally can smell those nostalgic scents in the air. Every single song of his does that to me and no other artist is able to make me feel that way. Sorry, I’m just so happy to find someone who shares these exact thoughts.

Thanks yo. I'm hearing impaired so I rely on lyrics to help me hear it. It's 2021 you'd expect the artist to put the lyrics in the description by now but no. 😅 so thank you very much 😊
I love how their songs can always be interpreted to one's own situation. Like Ive seen people in the comments interpret the blue stuff as mental illness, a metaphor for falling in love, and more. Its a beautifully written song to have so many potential meanings to different people.
2015 I had a crush on a girl but I never new what to say to them, I always knew she felt the same way but I was to nervous to tell her, I always thought we would just be friends but when this song came out it changed everything, we have been seeing each other for 3 months now and this is all because of you, thank you cavetown you will always be my favourite music artist
I really liked the video. Idk if I interpreted it right or not but I think; yk how blue can signify sadness/depression, Robbie throwing up the blue in the starting maybe meant that he was dealing with it on his own and it was just overflowing, but as soon as he met the girl he was able to forget about his sadness. And even if it came back for a while she was able to help him get rid of it. However, she herself was facing the same thing and in someway maybe Robbie was able to help her while he was with her.
I thought the same thing. First the lyrics "throwing up brains through my mouth" as he's throwing up blue. Then the girl wiping away his blue signifying comfort from her company. And the girl also bleeds blue after they've said goodbye, showing that they're at least sad to leave each other, and that maybe she was also already feeling sad
I feel like they wanted to thank her for being so nice with them as she wiped their blue with a tissue each time but to me they also show that as she took care of their problems, she didn't take care of her own, kinda forgot them with them. So she puts herself after them but also she's healing without them needing to do anything. To me they're healing because she's obviously helping but she also is because their simple presence is enough for her to heal... Idk if it makes sense ???
Isn't he Aromantic? I think maybe thats what the song is about, him wondering why he feels so alone if he's aromatic and him loving the idea of someone rather than the actual person them self in a romantic way. but music is up for interpretation so maybe it felt this way for me but it was different for you. :)
I still love how you can put my feelings into your songs. As an aro, I found out I never loved someone romantically and only the idea of "them" and that really hits me. This song I swear

Hey Robbin, I’m Caleb and I just wanted to say that Your music makes me smile and you in general make me feel not alone. Sometimes school and the stress of being non-binary in my school with so much bullying is so hard but I listen to you everyday and you genuinely make all of my days happy ones. I love you and your music. In behalf of all of us, thank you for being you.
Genuinely asking, what really is non-binary? I really can’t understand it in anyway. I don’t live in us or Canada or something and yes I read the definition but I still can’t differentiate it with a girl who’s tomboy and a boy who’s femboy,could you please give me some solid explanations?if you want and have time though.
@@BaranKamali-dx4fj non-binary is basically not identifying as a male or female. they're just people, therefore you cant really put them in a category with "girl" or "boy" (ex: "tomboy", "femboy"), that would mean they still identify as a girl or guy but they dont. they're just people. hope this helps you :)
This is relatable as someone on the a-spec cuz I currently have a huge aesthetic crush on this girl but I dont wanna date her and it's a weird situation
You know what’s funny? As someone who is agender I’ve noticed that there a lot of folks who are also ace and aro in the agender community. I’m not ace or aro personally but at the same time a lot of Robbie’s music just… captures my feelings so well and sometimes I wonder if there’s something to that? Maybe I’ve got some exploring to do. I love your music dude!
Honestly Robbie is such an amazing musician and person and he’s done so many things for so many people just by making amazing songs and being himself ❤️
"If I don't want anyone, why do I feel so alone"- this line hits deep. As someone who knows I'll ruin anyone's life who comes near me, I accepted the fact of me being alone. Still the urge, the feeling to have someone loving me unconditionally, staying beside me despite my flaws; takes ahold of me from time to time. This song perfectly portraits my emotions. I love robbie so much for making beautiful songs that describes my feeling so perfectly.
Me thinking logically: "you recently got out of a relationship where you liked the idea of the person more than the person, so this song will probably make you sad and you should wait to watch it until your a little more mentally stable" My lack of self control: "lmfao naw"
Robbie's hair is red he says you look good in green and blue nothing is sweeter than listening to his toons eyes covered in scars and your head filling with tar no matter how far you fall He'll always be there to see through it all. Life is short so make sure to hug all your friends and never forget them until the end Robbie is the best and he's gotten us through a lot of things just with his gentle voice and lemon-shaped mind with every tear that dreads from my eyes going home to the only place that makes me feel sain cause cavetown was the only thing filling my brain. -StuffyWig207988
As someone who's first relationship was an LDR with a girl I've never met, this song feels like being happy after letting out a big cry & getting a hug from your Dad.
this music video and song are just a flood of emotions for me because i understand how he feels and also because the idea of having a friendship like this makes me sad because i dont and im just left with longing. and also, robbie is like the purest, sweetest, most beautiful person in the world to me right now.
Cavetowns songs are super relatable and that's why I love his music. He expresses so many emotions and shows pain that basically everyone goes through. Keep going cavetown, and I hope you a very successful future.
i cannot thank you enough for your music, the visuals and the person you are. i find shelter, a safe space and comfort wherever your content is, you are truly wonderful

a lot of people have been saying that its their birthday tmrw so i just wanted to let you guys know that i wish you all the best bdays !!! hope you guys get what you wanted .
Ur so sweet 🥺 Thank you!

@@ilikecheese5194 happy bday !!!!!
the lyrics in case someone wants/needs it:
Can't get your name past my lips like a slur
And I think I'm in love with the idea of her
Lie in the morning aurora
What time is it in California?
Throwing up brains through my mouth
Yeah, I'm thinking out loud, things we won't talk about
Remember the time that we snuck in her house?
They don't want me around
But I can't get your name past my lips like a slur
And I think I'm in love with the idea of her
Cry like annoying cicada
What time is it in California?
GMT minus eight and I'm staying up late
With your face in my head like a drone
If I don't want anyone then why do I feel so alone?
I'll reach out if you don't
'Cause I can't get your name past my lips like a slur
And I think I'm in love with the idea of her
Lie in the morning aurora
What time is it in California?
I can't get your name past my lips like a slur
And I think I'm in love with the idea of her
Cry like annoying cicada
What time is it in California?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Thanks
Thanks! :D
I love how this fandom is so sweet and positive. Lots of love to whoever reads this today. ❤
Genna OH MY GOD!!! I have been listening to this song on repeat for two or three days now, and I end up finding YOUR message, how interesting is that?
I wasn't even looking for it either
@@loganoffer2477 Surprise! 😘
@GenevieveHoskins then I guess that those two in the video are you and I!! They could also be you and Jake as well 😍
I really relate to this song as an aromantic person. I'm in love with the idea of being in a romantic relationship, even though there's no one I want to be with, and I know that I wouldn't be happy in one.
Robbie is probably one of the only people who can help me with his songs the most

Thx :P
Yayy
Thanks yo. I'm hearing impaired so I rely on lyrics to help me hear it. It's 2021 you'd expect the artist to put the lyrics in the description by now but no. 😅 so thank you very much 😊
This has to be pinned
tmrw is my birthday and i'm really excited. this is going to be the best birthday gift EVER THANKS ROBBIE
Lucky u
Happy birthday for tomorrow

happy (early) birthday i hope you have a noice day!! :D
🥳👏👏
I love how their songs can always be interpreted to one's own situation. Like Ive seen people in the comments interpret the blue stuff as mental illness, a metaphor for falling in love, and more. Its a beautifully written song to have so many potential meanings to different people.
2015 I had a crush on a girl but I never new what to say to them, I always knew she felt the same way but I was to nervous to tell her, I always thought we would just be friends but when this song came out it changed everything, we have been seeing each other for 3 months now and this is all because of you, thank you cavetown you will always be my favourite music artist
How are you know? Do you still with her?❤
that smile exchange when robbie's holding the makeup :') ❤
I really liked the video. Idk if I interpreted it right or not but I think; yk how blue can signify sadness/depression, Robbie throwing up the blue in the starting maybe meant that he was dealing with it on his own and it was just overflowing, but as soon as he met the girl he was able to forget about his sadness. And even if it came back for a while she was able to help him get rid of it. However, she herself was facing the same thing and in someway maybe Robbie was able to help her while he was with her.
I thought the same thing. First the lyrics "throwing up brains through my mouth" as he's throwing up blue. Then the girl wiping away his blue signifying comfort from her company. And the girl also bleeds blue after they've said goodbye, showing that they're at least sad to leave each other, and that maybe she was also already feeling sad
I feel like they wanted to thank her for being so nice with them as she wiped their blue with a tissue each time but to me they also show that as she took care of their problems, she didn't take care of her own, kinda forgot them with them. So she puts herself after them but also she's healing without them needing to do anything. To me they're healing because she's obviously helping but she also is because their simple presence is enough for her to heal... Idk if it makes sense ???
I feel like they are internet lovers ( and they met in real life ), that could explain the lyric " What time is it in California? "
Isn't he Aromantic? I think maybe thats what the song is about, him wondering why he feels so alone if he's aromatic and him loving the idea of someone rather than the actual person them self in a romantic way. but music is up for interpretation so maybe it felt this way for me but it was different for you. :)
@@anthonycastro5577 He said he's on the spectrum, also some people on the aromantic spectrum still CAN feel romantic attraction just rarely (like me)
Poggers rob and by the way your song “this is home” was my Childhood and I wanna say thanks man for making my childhood great you still are now :)
"If I don't want anyone then why do I feel so alone?" hit me like a ton of bricks. Amazing job on the video (and the song, of course), Robbie!
I still love how you can put my feelings into your songs. As an aro, I found out I never loved someone romantically and only the idea of "them" and that really hits me. This song I swear
The premiere hasn’t even started yet but I already know it’ll be amazing

Hey Robbin, I’m Caleb and I just wanted to say that Your music makes me smile and you in general make me feel not alone. Sometimes school and the stress of being non-binary in my school with so much bullying is so hard but I listen to you everyday and you genuinely make all of my days happy ones. I love you and your music. In behalf of all of us, thank you for being you.
I meant Robbie 😁
Thanks sweet
Genuinely asking, what really is non-binary? I really can’t understand it in anyway. I don’t live in us or Canada or something and yes I read the definition but I still can’t differentiate it with a girl who’s tomboy and a boy who’s femboy,could you please give me some solid explanations?if you want and have time though.
@@BaranKamali-dx4fj non-binary is basically not identifying as a male or female. they're just people, therefore you cant really put them in a category with "girl" or "boy" (ex: "tomboy", "femboy"), that would mean they still identify as a girl or guy but they dont. they're just people.
hope this helps you :)
thank you robbie for existing
Seeing him with his head out the left window legit scared me for a second

This is relatable as someone on the a-spec cuz I currently have a huge aesthetic crush on this girl but I dont wanna date her and it's a weird situation
I feel you 💀
Same it's very weird and confusing
@@BlackMagicPasta Like you just want to stare at them sometimes 😌
@@idk9747 yeah I spent half an hour thinking about them but I didn't really want to date them
wait this just made me start questioning my attraction again- DO I ONLY EXPERIENCE AESTHETIC CRUSHES?! 😭😭
You know what’s funny? As someone who is agender I’ve noticed that there a lot of folks who are also ace and aro in the agender community. I’m not ace or aro personally but at the same time a lot of Robbie’s music just… captures my feelings so well and sometimes I wonder if there’s something to that? Maybe I’ve got some exploring to do. I love your music dude!
SNAIL!!!!! this song is amazing, but the snail makes it EVEN BETTER, i dunno y, but it made me very happy
this is so wholesome :)
we can say snail is the star here
Honestly Robbie is such an amazing musician and person and he’s done so many things for so many people just by making amazing songs and being himself ❤️
I CANT STOP WATCHING THIS IVE PLAYED IT 3 TIMES ALREADY I LOVE U ROBBIE
"If I don't want anyone, why do I feel so alone"- this line hits deep.
As someone who knows I'll ruin anyone's life who comes near me, I accepted the fact of me being alone. Still the urge, the feeling to have someone loving me unconditionally, staying beside me despite my flaws; takes ahold of me from time to time.
This song perfectly portraits my emotions. I love robbie so much for making beautiful songs that describes my feeling so perfectly.
Robbie's voice always calms my mind
Me thinking logically: "you recently got out of a relationship where you liked the idea of the person more than the person, so this song will probably make you sad and you should wait to watch it until your a little more mentally stable"
My lack of self control: "lmfao naw"
I hope you're doing okay! :3
this THIS THIS
UM HELLO STOP CALLING ME OUT- /J
You're not alone
BRO LITERALLY SAME THO
omg the cottagecore vibeesss. I am here for it, I want it and l need it.
I was thinking the same and we all need it!
bishh✌🏾💩🔪
@@dova5102 mu bishhhh
Robbie's hair is red he says you look good in green and blue
nothing is sweeter than listening to his toons eyes covered in scars and your head filling with tar no matter how far you fall
He'll always be there to see through it all. Life is short so make sure to hug all your friends and never forget them until the end Robbie is the best and he's gotten us through a lot of things just with his gentle voice and lemon-shaped mind with every tear that dreads from my eyes going home to the only place that makes me feel sain cause cavetown was the only thing filling my brain.
-StuffyWig207988
That was beautiful :)
The amount of song references in this is just y e s
Well said
NO CAUSE THE OOOOOOOH AT THE END HITS DIFFERENT I LOVE IT-
I don't know who to look at
Robbie or Lenka
They're both cute, handsome, beautiful people AHHHHHHH
and i think i'm in love with the idea of her
I kinda lowkey love his aesthetic
siempre haces arte estoy muy orgulloso de ti de vd, te amo solo espero verte algun dia :(((
Yo también estoy muy orgullosa del él, es una persona fantástica, y su música me ayudado, algún día lo vamos a conocer
1:08 is my favorite part, they both have beautiful smiles
As someone who's first relationship was an LDR with a girl I've never met, this song feels like being happy after letting out a big cry & getting a hug from your Dad.
this music video and song are just a flood of emotions for me because i understand how he feels and also because the idea of having a friendship like this makes me sad because i dont and im just left with longing. and also, robbie is like the purest, sweetest, most beautiful person in the world to me right now.
Every song you create is like another therapy session. I can’t wait for the premiere
OMGGG QUE EMOCIOOOON

ROBBIE YOUR MY FAVORITE SINGER I LOVE YOUR MUSIC YOUR SO TALENTED!!!
When I’m having a bad day I put on a random cavetown song and it never fails to make my day better
ah robbie you never fail to put a smile on my face
AHHHH I LIKE THIS SONG
it’s my comfort video now
THIS WILL BE AMAZING
Cavetowns songs are super relatable and that's why I love his music. He expresses so many emotions and shows pain that basically everyone goes through. Keep going cavetown, and I hope you a very successful future.
"If I don't want anyone why do I feel alone" ouch that's relatable
So happy to see young people singing good music.
as an aroace person this is so comforting and beautiful on another level😭💞
Man they did 3 videos about Idea of Her
That must be a meaningful song
Imma cry
Robbie has no idea how much his music helps everyone he has done so much for me and for so long without even knowing
Nearly forgot that Robbie lives in the UK and @2:05 had a full on "WHAT THE FRIG ROBBIE! DON'T AIR DRUM SOLO AND DRIIIIIVE!"
Oh no this is the sweetest thing I watched all day
the 13 people that disliked this honestly need help because what is their problem with this?
