I was on the verge of a terrible panic attack when I stumbled across this song this day. It pulled me out and changed my whole day and outlook for the better. I don't know if you'll see this, but holy shit thank you for writing this.

@@Patrick33456 thank you. Kind words ive used many times to help others but difficult to help yourself in these dark moments. Much respect for reaching out. Empathy....
This is the most beautiful performance of this song. I feel so much when I hear this song. It speaks to me on such a deep level. It wrecks me and puts me back together again. What a special artist ❤!
Bruh! I fell in love with "I see America" now I see this?!?!?! I liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiivvvvvveeeeeeeee!!!!!!! High five mama! Real music ! Bout damn time!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heard about you at Lollapalooza, LOVE the energy you transmit through your music. Don't ever change, we need more spirits like yours. Blessings love, you are doing great things.❤
I need to know how this woman was influenced to come up with the words to this song; absolutely beautiful, absolutely angelic voice. This song I see touching many lives in this broken world or in a broken heart. God is good and I need a documentary on this woman. I feel she is blessed beyond measure.
Can't say I cry to music much, but this song brought tears to my eyes more than once. Thank you for creating this, Joy! It's beautiful, and also a message a lot of us need.
Super cool to see one of the artists of the century what is seemingly early at a couple thousand views on youtube. Life hurts for me right now and you're going to help so many people. Thank you so much.
You are not alone! Please take a second to know that you are worthy of love and joy. Life hurts sometimes, but it does it to show how beautiful it is to be alive. Stay strong and know that even though I don't know you, I know that you are perfect.
Joy is exactly what the world needs right now. She is destined for STARDOM! I look forward to watching you soar! Like you made my spirit when I discovered your music 🎶.
This young lady is truly the brightest ray of sunshine in space... She just literally pulled my heart strings as far as they could be streched...what a wonderful talent that has been placed before us...
I just want to give you best wishes to become a singer with songs that make people live in reality not in fantasy.... From India🇮🇳... A huge fan of urs🥰
Any negativity should be explained as I know too many going thru crap and need to hear this!!!! She made me cry happy tears as maybe she is reaching the many needing this message.. thanks for this guys and also you are blessed.. I always wanted to sing and play guitar... it is a gift from GOD so.. use that gift gf... be proud and share it to all! and kick that negative remark to the curb with the rest of the trash for the good guys to take it to the dump... Prayers to all Y'all!
joy joy joy- my dearest love, thank you with much respect for sharing your soul to the universe....it found me & i've received loads of peace because of it
You are literally one of the best writers of our generation!!!! Thank you for what you do!!!! it’s too bad that the music industry is Hell-bent on keeping society Vacant of love and critical thinking.
Oh you have definitely been adorned with the perfect name….Joy….. this song somehow fell into my ears at the perfect time. I realise your lyrics can mean different things to different folk for different reasons, but for me - they called my 6 yr old granddaughter’s name. Only being 6 yrs old, she has become so terrified of the rain as her home has been flooded twice in the last 12 months and runs and hides whenever she sees dark clouds in the sky. As I said, “Look Up”. Fell into my path and so I let her hear it to know that sometimes days are dark and cloudy, even stormy but there is always a silver lining. She understood the sentiment and now we sing it together when the days are grey… and even when they’re not. So thank you 🙏 Joy for such an uplifting song that put a positive light on a 6 year olds fears. You are very blessed Joy Oladokun. 💕💕
You have no idea how much this song helped me today to see the light again. Thank you so much for being such an incredible singer, your words are incredibly healing for me and so many others. Please never ever stop writing and singing, your music touches souls
I love this song. Everything since I heard it the first time, listening to it has increased my positivity levels, I am hopeful and I remind myself my life isn't all I want but it is beautiful and perfect . I feel fortunate to have found some thus song during the time I did, it really lifted me up.
Such talent! You’re such a gift, especially at this time in this world today. Please keep writing, and playing, and singing, and sharing with all of us.

I love your music so much. You have such a beautiful voice. Most of your songs make me want to cry, but everyone needs a good cry sometimes. Keep doing what you do. Can't wait to see what you come out with next.
This got me through the awful year after my husband of 29 years decided to leave me for my best friend. I loved this song and I held on to the hope of a brighter future. Thank you, Joy!!!
From the depths of winter downunder in 2022 I'm "looking up" and spreading this absolute banger like a mad person. Brilliant tune, congratulations to all involved!
