Truly. I hope honest articulation of emotion in songwriting comes back in style. It's scarce because you can't really write honestly and also be lazy -- something particularly relevant to the factory that is pop music. Authenticity is hard work, but the impact a deep, relatable song can make is like the meaning of life for me. Greyson's writing reminds me of the honesty and vulnerability in the work of John Mayer and Bo Burnham.
This is the most raw and authentic interview. Truly an artist speaking about his art. Not a celebrity speaking about pop culture. An artist, and his art.
This dude deserves so much more recognition! I still remember seeing him on the Ellen show with his powerful young voice and now he's all grown up and still so down to earth! Also hearing his deep voice is just making me feel so old! lol
I agree. I stumbled upon his video of the talent show before everything exploded for him. It sucks that record labels drop young men when they hit puberty. Their loss because he is going to blow people ‘s socks off as he continues to grow, evolve and mature.
No, he’s not. He says ‘um’ way too much and uses ‘cool’ much too often. He may be fairly intelligent or smart, but there was very little to go on in that interview.
whenever I watch interviews with Greyson I get this strong feeling that he's sort of settled into who he is as a person & it's such a solid and soothing thing to be adjacent to
The picture he chose as the cover for portraits is perfect. It is startling. And it's meant to be. When I first saw it it reminded me of a fighter, nearly beaten but prepared to keep fighting. To me it encapsulates, in a single image, everything Greyson has been through over the past 10 years; Personally, professionally and romantically; The inspiration for the music of 'portraits' I find it truly beautiful! 💙
Aw I love this kid. I was just wondering what happened to him the other day too so it looks like I came back at the right time!! Also he articulates his thoughts so well geez whatta gift.
i can’t stop crying!! I’m so proud of this guy omg he deserves more recognition, he’s amazing, talented, strong and a great artist. Love u greyson, hope see ya here in my country
Amazing interviewer. You can tell he does his homework and actually asks the artist authentic, introspective questions. You can tell he loves music too!
I knew he would have a great voice after his voice settles I also followed him when he was that pre-teen kid But as soon as I heard his somewhere over my head EP i was hella excited to see what else he can produce So now im very very excited for this new album coming out
I got the album the other day (I get whatever Greyson offers). So, i am soooo happy to find this interview. He is a terrific artist. All positive thoughts for him and his musical future.
just some personal timestamps 1:05 - greyson talking about the sexy, romantic story behind *shut up* 2:37 - greyson talking about whether he thinks about writing songs when he's in a "moment" 8:20 - greyson's breakup story -> eating disorder -> white roses
It makes me so sad that he didn't like how Somewhere Over My Head turned out. I pre-ordered a signed copy and waited months for it, and I absolutely loved it.
Wow I never saw this interview. This is the first interview I've seen him do since he came out as a gay. But this is the exact same reason why I don't have a boyfriend myself. A man can change as soon as the wind blows. I think Greyson did a good job with the interview and album.
@@kevankenney422 ewww, not u I was talking about the hobo twink Damn it... Straghit guys get on my Nerve! u need to buy a mirror apprently u need it and stay away from playgrounds with children. Cuz R. Kelly vibes is the only thing I am getting from u
18:24 am I the only one who wishes they're flirting with each other?...🙈 hahaha they look so cute together... And the interviewee is damn good!!..and I love how Greyson runs his fingers on his hair..
Hello greyson, my instagram handle is called aisyahenchancer, established 2012, was a hard die fan of you and now I would say I am a decent fan of yours. I love, loooveeee shut up. I am really hoping you would come to Sydney, have a gig, and sing some songs from when you were younger. ❤️

"YOU WROTE THAT?"
"Yeah, I thought that was part of my job"
Greyson might just be one of the most underrated artists of my generation.

Kee Leichtle I think the new records gonna get a lot of attention! Fingers crossed 🤞

He so handsome 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
He’s so well spoken.

The interviewer is a really great one!
Nurul Nadelia aw! Thank you Nurul!
And cute as fvck

White Roses is a hard song, it touches you right to the core.
he's so much more beautiful than the album cover, who else is with me on that?
thats the point

I find it truly beautiful! 💙

So now im very very excited for this new album coming out
I love him so much!!! This album will be the bomb ❤️
Lo Pereira totally

Very humbled 🤙🏽 sending love from #tulsaoklahoma
It makes me so sad that he didn't like how Somewhere Over My Head turned out. I pre-ordered a signed copy and waited months for it, and I absolutely loved it.
Jasmine McGarigle portraits should be great
I don't think he was sad how the music turned out. I think he was disappointed that it didnt reach a wider audience.
And i'm so damn proud for you grey! 💖
rizka amalia excited to see what he does in 2019!
Kevan you are such a great interviewer. I am sooooooo proud of you.
Nice, thoughtful interview. Greyson is certainly an artist to be reckoned with. Seek out the foreign pressings, but otherwise you have to stream it.
Wow, what a wonderful interview!
DemiJonas4Life thanks so much for saying so!!
Awesome interview!
Maria Wida thanks so much Maria!

Huh? What do you mean a man can change as the wind blows? Being gay is not a choice.
He is cute
jemin kim 😆
