just the idea of this song is so genius. this connection or love is not good for either of the people involved and you know you shouldn't do it, like smoking. but since your already here and you've already started and you know that its not going to last, you'd rather just enjoy it while you still have it. his mind >>>>>
1. Cheating is bad, kids. 2. Smoking is bad, kids. 3. I had goosebumps! Josh truly just gets better and better, vocally, at writing lyrics, just in general! Will definitely listen to this over and over!
im pretty sure there was no cheating, i could’ve gotten it wrong but when they show the kissing he mentions “illusions” as in he’s imaging it? but i only listened once lol so maybe i didn’t understand
Josh’s voice with a new song is something I don’t think I could ever get tired of hearing. I’ve been a fan for years and years- his voice is comforting to me. Thank you Josh.
That's exactly how I feel right now I was just imaging my crush to this song "all that we are is all that we'll ever be cos I'm moving to a place far for home"
I feel like the cigarettes and the nicotine are a metaphor for the whole love affair in this music video. It feels good, so good in the moment. But the more you tap into it, the more it happens, the deeper you get into the habit... the worse the situation gets. You're left longing for the company and the taste of the other person's lips, similar to the way cigarettes hook you in and put you in a crutch. But my GOD, I am absolutely in love with this song and its music video. Joshua is literally no joke when it comes to talent.
just listened to “smoke slow” ‘cause the audio is already out where i live and OMG JOSHUAAAA!! the song is perfect, the lyrics are perfect, the melody, everything! i even cried in the bridge
I always loved when Joshua released a new song!! He continues to rise up in his career. No matter what challenges he goes through, he never disappointed his fans and continue to do what he loves the most which is singing to his fans.
i can't believe Joshua directed the videos for smoke slow, sad songs in a hotel room and doppelgänger. Both the songs and the videos are incredible! Joshua is a genius and deserves much more recognition!
@reale consapevolezza his team sucks lmao and also it feels like he won't fire ppl. The release date for this song wasn't the best either and he was going on tour in 2 months without announcing anything abt the album. And I don't think he knows something we don't, i think it's basically what i said abt his team but who knows
josh has saved me so fuckin much he doesn't even know im so gonna stream the hell out of this song. i hope he knows how much we care about him. WE LOVE U JOSH !!!
smoke slow is a cultural reset, a lifestyle, a reason to breathe and open your eyes in the morning, a work of art, the first gift u open on christmas, a hug from a loved one, everything you ever wanted and an inspiration.
I love Joshua Bassett's songs. It so beautiful and amazing that he always goes above and beyond. No matter what. We love Joshua Bassett and we always will
Smoke slow was my favorite since the moment he released the snippets, still is. What a song, what an artist, what a writer. I love you more than myself Joshua.
he has such a peter pan vibe to him, he's literally so magical and his music sounds so whimsical- not to mention him looking like a Disney prince. Amazing song ⭐🪄
this song was released 2yrs ago and I just realized- I JUST REALIZED!!! that MICHAEL CIMINO was here in JOSHUA BASSET'S MUSIC VIDEO. OMG, I played the music video MULTIPLE TIMES and I realized it just now.
It was already a very clever and beautiful sentiment but THE BRIDGE?!?! The bridge took it up so many levels for me. And the shots for it were gorgeous. Bold claim but this has to be my favorite piece of work from Joshua
WOW!!!!!!! ANOTHER AMAZING SONG! Josh's songs are always so powerful and deep. That's what makes music. I am really excited for Joshuas future and i think he should MORE than he does now. he is underrated. After all he has been through this is very impressive.
*LYRICS:* She asks for a light As our secrets spill on the window sill We're buying more time While we kill ourselves as we both inhale Making believe there's a future Is it naive to think we could work? The second it's out then I lose her We're already here, so one more won't hurt It won't hurt But all that we are is all that we'll ever be 'Cause he's the one waiting at home She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody There's only so far we can go Next to you, but I'll never be close So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow Breaking away for the hell of it Started innocent I'm telling you things that I've never said Hope I don't regret this Making believe that we're clueless One little spark that we won't put out Making a million excuses 'Cause isn't it fun just for now? But all that we are is all that we'll ever be 'Cause he's the one waiting at home She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody There's only so far we can go Next to you, but I'll never be close So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow Addicted to illusions of A love that never was And never will be anyway Oh And nicotine don't taste the same If I'm not with you savoring Every breath we take Play with fire Take me higher All that we are is all that we'll ever be 'Cause he's the one waiting at home She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody There's only so far we can go Next to you, but I'll never be close So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow
The best thing about this song and its lyrics is to see how Joshua has left behind all the drama and the pain that he went through in 2021. Great song, great lyrics, great message.
I've been with him since I first saw the trailer of hsmtmts season one and since he first dropped his song Lie Lie Lie!! And I'm so proud of him and excited to see what's coming next I'm so excited and anxious to hear Smoke Slow!!!This king officially has the key to my heart, love you Joshy!!! Super excited to hear Smoke Slow!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song deserves more recognition, the lesson is actually perfect, the meaning behind the lyrics and the symbolism of this mv is fantastic. His story is relatable mostly to teenagers who fell inlove but didn't last...This masterpiece deserves more!
Mikey is just the best! I remember watching his other projects in the past and well they’re all beautiful! I’m so glad to see him and josh direct together on this project!
This song is fire as Josh's songs always are. The guitar, the voice and the video are so beautifully made. I've been waiting for this song to come out ever since he released the snippet of it
The ending chords of this song were amazing. The whole song was but that ending dang. His voice is also so amazing the notes he hits in each song and what he writes just wow
im actually sad that eight days later this video hasn't even hit 1 Million views I dont know when he will recieve his recongnition for his music but i hope its soon
Management i guess because people are liking the song, and even when they heard the snippet in edits they asked for it bc they liked it, so the problem isn't in the song itself. Also he usually gets one million in around 3 days so i guess something specific is going on too, maybe a bad date release
Joshua I can't explain how amazing and important you are to us. Can we talk about how genuine, talented, vulnerable, humble, HANDSOME, kind you are?Keep going and don't ever listen to any comment that can damage your big and strongly perfect heart. You have us, you have me, you have your family, your friends and I ams sure, this amazing song as well as your next ones will be breaking records. I genuinely care about you and love you so much from the deep of my heart. You've helped millions of should by just transmitting your super good energy with your guitar and lovely sweet voice. KEEP MOVING FOWARD AND NEVER STOP BEING THE WAY YOU ARE: SOMETHING BIGGER IS COMING.

Well said
wow, i love this!
Also, no matter how hard you try, you can't smoke slower. The damn thing burns with the same speed whatever you do.
Just what I thought.
Yeah very well said you’re totally right :)
1. Cheating is bad, kids.
2. Smoking is bad, kids.
3. I had goosebumps! Josh truly just gets better and better, vocally, at writing lyrics, just in general! Will definitely listen to this over and over!
Haha accurate tho
lmaooooooooooooooo
Factz
im pretty sure there was no cheating, i could’ve gotten it wrong but when they show the kissing he mentions “illusions” as in he’s imaging it? but i only listened once lol so maybe i didn’t understand
It’s the facts 😌 BUT I did not expect the kissing I ALMOST DIED
Josh’s voice with a new song is something I don’t think I could ever get tired of hearing. I’ve been a fan for years and years- his voice is comforting to me. Thank you Josh.
oh me too i'm in love with his voice.
same!!
Same here! Huge Fan
Agreed

When Joshua hits that note at 3:02 ... HEAVEN ✨
Honestly❤
It's funny bc he's saying "higher"
just listened to “smoke slow” ‘cause the audio is already out where i live and OMG JOSHUAAAA!! the song is perfect, the lyrics are perfect, the melody, everything! i even cried in the bridge
the bridge is amazing
I feel so bad you cried,god bless you.🙃

Really powerful tho
"Addicted to illusions of a love that never was and never will be anyway" i can't get over that line
Too relatable 😭

i love him so much
Same I love him so much
I adore that
True
"'Cause all that we are is all that we'll ever be." I felt that. Perfect job on another song, Joshy!!!!!!!!!!!!
The song, the lyrics, the lighting, the story behind it, THE BRIDGE, everything is beyond perfect.
"Addicted to illusions of love, that never was, there never will be anyway". I love this song!
his voice control, his creativity, his thoughts, his soul, his everything is so perfectly portrayed in every way in every lyric. gosh i admire him
i can't believe Joshua directed the videos for smoke slow, sad songs in a hotel room and doppelgänger. Both the songs and the videos are incredible! Joshua is a genius and deserves much more recognition!
This song and mv isn't getting enough attention for some reason. This song is better than doppelgänger imo it deserves a lot more views

Why is nobody talking about Michael Cimino in this video (love victor) 😭
i love how much effort josh puts into making his music and this videos. they’re amazing and he deserves to be praised
I was NOT prepared for that bridge 10/10
I AM SO, SO READY FOR SMOKE SLOW!!!!!! i just know it’s going to be amazing and i’m so proud of josh and all he’s accomplished 💙
@1 Million With 0 Videos Challenge (Day 7) ok
This song is golden
His voice
The lyrics
The atmosphere
joshuas mind is actually crazy genius omg
2:14 obsessed with the run on “nowww”
God I love this kid and his voice and his songs and his talent since the day I watched him on HSMTMTS😭He deserves more love and recognition!!
The bridge is a killer. Uggh..
“take your time WHILE you’re mine” that line hits different y’all - if you get it, you get it, if you don’t, you don’t😭
MICHAEL CIMINO AND JOSHUA BASSETT WOWW😭
josh has saved me so fuckin much he doesn't even know im so gonna stream the hell out of this song. i hope he knows how much we care about him. WE LOVE U JOSH !!!

I can’t believe how small he is! Definitely soon to be famous
I’m continually blown away by him. Every song is honestly so good. I’m so proud of him
smoke slow is a cultural reset, a lifestyle, a reason to breathe and open your eyes in the morning, a work of art, the first gift u open on christmas, a hug from a loved one, everything you ever wanted and an inspiration.
Josh's voice in this song almost made me cry because it's such a perfect song to break down tears, I love it
I can tell this is gonna be his best album he is so talented
I'M SO PROUD OF YOUUUU JOSHUAAA!
Just realized you can hear a heartbeat in the begining?
I love Joshua Bassett's songs. It so beautiful and amazing that he always goes above and beyond. No matter what. We love Joshua Bassett and we always will
This is my favorite song of all ... !!!
So much feelings, deepth and wonderful text plus melody ... I love it.
Smoke slow was my favorite since the moment he released the snippets, still is. What a song, what an artist, what a writer. I love you more than myself Joshua.
This song deserves more recognition, this is a masterpiece!
he has such a peter pan vibe to him, he's literally so magical and his music sounds so whimsical- not to mention him looking like a Disney prince. Amazing song ⭐🪄
i am in love with the bridge's josh writes...only a matter of time to smoke slow i am in love!
he beholds some really ethereal aura, his voice makes everything so lively 😭
this song was released 2yrs ago and I just realized- I JUST REALIZED!!! that MICHAEL CIMINO was here in JOSHUA BASSET'S MUSIC VIDEO. OMG, I played the music video MULTIPLE TIMES and I realized it just now.
It was already a very clever and beautiful sentiment but THE BRIDGE?!?! The bridge took it up so many levels for me. And the shots for it were gorgeous. Bold claim but this has to be my favorite piece of work from Joshua
this is why I love Josh. No other artist would have even thought of putting that disclaimer since smoking is so mainstream. love him
WOW!!!!!!! ANOTHER AMAZING SONG! Josh's songs are always so powerful and deep. That's what makes music. I am really excited for Joshuas future and i think he should MORE than he does now. he is underrated. After all he has been through this is very impressive.
“and nicotine don’t taste the same if I’m not with you savourin’ every breath we take” i really like that lyric
His artistry is quite humble but it'll blow you the freaking away when you get to appreciate it
This video is literally sooo sad! But Josh is the sweetest...
JOSHUA BASSETT YOU ARE A LYRICAL GENIUS
that bridge brought me to tears
i listened to the song already.. it’s amazing the bridge is my favorite part 🤍 addicted to illusions of a love that never was
Me to
This song make me feel so peace. I love this song. Thanks Joshua Basset.
You never disappoint, keeps getting better and better! I can't wait to hear it live on tour ❤️
unfortunatley he has postponed majority of his tour dates, but if you are going to one that is still scheduled i hope you have fun!!!
@@isthatthelastapple4694 Yep sadly I know, the one in France is postponed 😅
This just proves once again that Joshua Bassett is THE IT BOY😌
Everything about his music is just so special. I hope he gets more attention because he deserves it!!
"We're already here
So one more won't hurt..."
Bruuuuuuhhhhhh!!!
best songs he's ever released
i’m actually living for the bridge omg
*LYRICS:*
She asks for a light
As our secrets spill on the window sill
We're buying more time
While we kill ourselves as we both inhale
Making believe there's a future
Is it naive to think we could work?
The second it's out then I lose her
We're already here, so one more won't hurt
It won't hurt
But all that we are is all that we'll ever be
'Cause he's the one waiting at home
She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody
There's only so far we can go
Next to you, but I'll never be close
So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow
Breaking away for the hell of it
Started innocent
I'm telling you things that I've never said
Hope I don't regret this
Making believe that we're clueless
One little spark that we won't put out
Making a million excuses
'Cause isn't it fun just for now?
But all that we are is all that we'll ever be
'Cause he's the one waiting at home
She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody
There's only so far we can go
Next to you, but I'll never be close
So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow
Addicted to illusions of
A love that never was
And never will be anyway
Oh
And nicotine don't taste the same
If I'm not with you savoring
Every breath we take
Play with fire
Take me higher
All that we are is all that we'll ever be
'Cause he's the one waiting at home
She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody
There's only so far we can go
Next to you, but I'll never be close
So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow

@@alexawing3988 lol

It should be illegal to make me cry like this...
The bridge is the most played part

the bridge is so addicting I literally can't stop listening to it. U NEED MORE ATTENTION!!!! stan josh
CINEMATOGRAPHY KINGGG
the melody in this chorus has been on repeat in my brain
Omg i love you joshua 💜
Joshua's voice is so unique. Nice song Joshua, keep it up.
I’m officially addicted to this song.
JOSHUA you are so talented please please write a song in a low key it would sound so melodic and comforting
The best music video Joshua Bassett has produced alongside someone else!
The bridge was something else ...
I got goosebumps at that high note🥺❤
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SMOKE SLOW!!

Straight to the playlists
How does this song only have around 700 thousand views. This song is so good and I’m feel josh should deserve more respect
