Milkyway - The Ridleys (Official Lyric Video)

- Hello! Benny here. Let me share share the story behind Milkyway.
At my previous job, Sunday and Monday were my days off. Because of this, I never felt the Monday blues. (The dread came on Tuesday.) I usually spent that day with a group of people, whom I will call "The Monday Group."
Because the people in The Monday Group were already close with each other, I felt like the outsider trying to learn a new language and culture. I didn't have any problem with this; that was usually the case with me and new people. I spent the first few weeks observing, laughing along, and listening. At times, I joined in, telling them about an experience I had, or a place I went to, or a show I watched, or a restaurant I discovered during one of my solo dates on days when I felt extra introverted. It was nice to share those things with people.
Eventually, The Monday Group became family to me. There was no magical moment that led to it, or any apparent reason why it happened. It just did. My heart made space for them, and welcomed them in. I found myself wanting to be around them more, organizing hangouts, and thinking of what to get them for Christmas. Though it's a struggle for me to really connect with people, they made it easier.
One day in 2020, we watched a movie called '2001: A Space Odyssey.' One of them fell asleep, while the rest of us pretended to understand what we were watching. Being the Neanderthals that we are, we gave up and decided to talk instead, while the film played in the background.
Some weeks after that, I wrote Milkyway with them in mind.
Dear listeners, I hope you find your own "Monday Group" - strangers who would eventually become family. People who value your presence and listen to what you have to say. People who are excited to spend time with you, the same way you're excited to spend time with them. People who want to share life with you. People who point you home.

Lyrics:
Table full of strangers
There's something wrong about this space
I know I've seen your faces before but I can't explain why I shy away from the talking
I sit and laugh and figure out
All the words that flow from your smiling mouths
I've never known true warmth before
Like I'm feeling now
Moving pictures on a screen
Making sense of all that we hear and see
An escape from reality
And you're sitting in front of me
While I'm cheating Mondays
I sit and laugh and figure out
All the words that flow from your smiling mouths
I've never known true warmth before
Like I'm feeling now
Oh, I sit and laugh and figure out
All the words that flow from your smiling mouths
I've never known true warmth before
Like I'm feeling now
I'm glad I share a universe with you
There's no reality I'd rather choose
I'm glad I share a universe with you
There's no reality I'd rather choose

Listening to the story behind this song made me reflect on my own group of close friends. I realized that I have a special inner circle from college that I never thought I would be so close with. This song makes me appreciate and value them even more. I hope they feel the same way about me. To the Ridley's, I think this song is amazing, and I can't wait to see you perform live someday. 🥺🥺🥺
It's a happier "Raconteur." Treasure your friends, always! Hope we get to see YOU live soon! Hahaha. Pa-picture kami kung pumunta ka sa gig!

I'm very happy to hear this, I'm very happy, even though soon I have to part with my friends because school time is over and continue at the next stage, I'm grateful Together they are from different backgrounds and their stories about life but we always complement each other I will share this song with our best photos when we were at school, even though there weren't too many because of Covid, but we are grateful to still meet For my friends, even though you go far away, remember that your house is far away, don't forget to come home
Love from me
This as an earworm to me just came back a week ago and for some reason, I just decided to check it out here on YT even if I knew this song for months (I am more on a spoti person)--- sooo I just learned about the story behind this. It made listening to this so much more warm. Thank you for sharing this, your story and music.
Just discovered the band today and i'm loving them already♡
New music soon!
I've never know true warmth before ❣️. Yes po, opo. Thank you, The Ridleys!

Love the meaning of the song
you have no idea how much i love yall and your craft
Very beautiful song. My ex told me that she remembers me through this song, I always wonder if that was still the case, we loved each other so much. But apparently we had to split. Although I fully respect her decision, I'd be lying if I said that I don't feel sad thinking about that fact.
Do me a favor and live your life, my Aphrodite. The tables have turned, I'm the one who remembers you through this song now.
huhu ganda talaga
I love you the ridleys

When i first saw this song i immediately told my sister about it not knowing the story of it, but still it was a great experience of me having my mind to imagine i was in outer space, now knowing the story it became my comfort song, i love this song so much that i can't wait for the next one, Thanks ridleys 🫶🏻
