I can't believe that there will be a lot of people and we can't even think you'll see our comments but I'm writing the 3rd comment right now...Feeling special :)
Not only was the song, choreography, and cinematography incredible, but half-alive managed to beautifully portray the thoughts and emotions that have been running through all of our heads this past year. And to me, that's what makes this song, and half-alive as a whole, incredible.
Too bad it's ONLY about the environmental crisis and not about the environmental crisis + social injustice + the current state of the world + our collective experience in a pandemic.
I feel like the boys have leveled up their dancing even further, which is incredible, considering the choreography is always my favorite part of these videos. Way to go Half Alive!
"The criminal I'm chasing, is wearing my shoes" Love that line. Really hope I can pull through this year. I've been finding it hard to push myself to fix what's wrong.
anybody watching this for the first time: there's a section from 2:10 to 2:24 with intense flashing lights, so be careful if you're sensitive to that! amazing work though ::)
@@honkyhonk id say okgo and tøp. The scenery and colors are more tøp and the choreography is more okgo. The music is more of a mix of both (and im not trying to hate, I know people have said that they copied tøp in the past) :)
It has been two years and no one will see this but I just noticed that the dance that Josh does at the end is the same as the one in beginning but in reverse, effectively making the video a perfect loop.

Tori C If the phrase “oh my God” as it’s normally used makes you uncomfy, that’s okay! I am similar. But I think that here, it is being used literally, like “oh my God, help” - addressing God as if in a prayer. I hope this helps! much love :)
The whole thing hit me right in the heart. Suddenly started cryin for the first time in a while. One minute I'm just jammin and then there's tears rollin down my face.

half alive are actually the only male artists that I would watch live and see them perform with their dancing... I can not stop repeating that first chorus choreo IT'S SO FUCKIN GOOD
I love this part cuz its intense all of a sudden, fits the song, its a nice dance, and the angles they give to the scenew with the cameras make everything better!
I can't get over the repetition in this, that feeling of going in circles in your own head or house, feeling like you're going nowhere and always ending up back at the same place. Even when you're trying your best and it feels like things are changing those feelings are still there pulling you back into the cycle. It killed me when i realized the opening dance is being done in reverse at the end, reminds me of picking apart your past in order to find the thing that's broken. just. wow, all around.
Their live shows are an EXPERIENCE, its much more than a concert it's a whole production and it's amazing, once live shows start up again there is nothing that will stop me from seeing them again, especially with a new song that's so extremely fire
Seriously though they are amazing!! I’ve never heard of them until Wednesday night when they opened for twenty one pilots!!! Their show was amazing along with Jay Joseph and of course the legends themself Twenty one pilots!! ❤️❤️
some songs i remember initially going ' meh i like it but not that much ' and put in my playlist i end up accidentally jamming out to hardcore after a few times of listening it to it
Wait. But the initial few seconds of choreography at the beginning of the song being performed in reverse to close out the song is actual poetry to me and a play on this entire lyrical journey about how the time is right - right now. The movements wound back in reverse makes me feel as if we were back to the start of the video, giving you a chance to make that move now. Go move your world, everyone!
Ya know, you didn't have to share that really cool piece of insight, but you decided to do so just to make me love this a little bit more. Thank you :D
Picked up on that, but also! 2:32 just before it almost seems like the same choreography but done by a group instead of one person to me? Such a cool interwoven mv
I'm a college student and this song and aawake alive are my anthems atm. Life is very confusing and complicated right now and I don't know what to do. I believe in God and believe He or She has a plan for me, but I don't know what it is and these songs are describing my life and emotions perfectly
half alive music videos always feel deeply nostalgic while simultaneously being ahead of the curve. also catchy as hell, I can't get this one out of my head.
discovered this song cause of Tyler Joseph talking about it in one of his interviews and OMFG?? im obsessed???? i used to listen these guys a few years back but i had a phase where i just didnt have the mental energy to listen to anything but i genuinelly think im gonna start listening to half alive again :)
Well it took me all day yesterday to learn the dance at 0:48 but I finally did it. Unfortunately I woke up this morning couldn't walk anymore because of the pain so looks like I won't be doing it again.
i- i cant express how much i love this song just everything, the lyrics, cameras angles and movements, dancing, colors i cant hecking express how much i love half alive
These are SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!! The cinematography, the lighting the CHOREO, the music, the acting, the set, the EVERYTHING!!! WOW!!! fan-freakin tastic job!!!
"time’s always right to fix what’s wrong" will live in my head alongside "there should be no hesitation, when the coast is clear" (first line of Apples in the Trees by Mirah) haunting my compulsive overthinking ass
Ok but like for wanting to make the message of this song clear, yall really didnt dumb it down or make it too on the nose.. I love songs that are so personal and specific and yet can apply to a variety of situations because they depict an emotional state rather than the event/opinion/belief that inspired them. Also i love when song lyrics are pure poetry like yalls and work together with the music and the video and choreography and it all just fits so well to create this pure beauty. thanks for making music to feel in my heart guys!!

I'd love if you give a shot to my music and subscribe 'cause most probably you won't regret
The lyrics speak to me as I child who had a hard time coming out to myself. The lyrics speak to me as a teen who was lost in life and still struggling to find a place in the world. The lyrics speak to me as a young adult who's filled with fear of being so broken I'll live the rest of my days unaccomplished after an ADD diagnosis. The entire song gives me hope.
As someone who has been struggling with depression and anxiety for a very long time now, I want to say, thank you! Your music has helped me a lot in dark times and especially "still feel." and "arrow" have been holding a spot in my heart. "Still feel." lyrics always felt made for me in a sense that it gave me something to relate to and also has given me the courage to work on what I have been struggling with for so long. "Whats wrong" hits the same spot for me as arrow and still feel. Keep it up guys youre all amazing
I know, right? The other two songs you mentioned are the ones I've gravitated to as well. It's cool to see half•alive's relatable lyrics, cathartic dancing and catchy grooves in these tracks bettering people's mental health!
We come full circle. I distinctly remember another creator making a video/reference to how well this specific music video was made, I watched it, and then moved on not thinking anything of it. A year later, I get hooked on Creature, Still Feel. , and Trust, and finally back to this song and video, finally realizing that I've been here before.
I've never been this emotionally invested with a band before. The choreography, passion, lyrics, tune--everything just spoke to me. I spilled tears as the song ended. You guys are keeping me alive, even if I'm only half alive. Thank you for making such amazing songs.

Yes, the same thing happens to me from the first time you listen to it, you don't stop listening to it- Half Alive has a special touch for music
omg, we're so equal haha, ily. Does that mean there's going to be collaboration? I wish it with my soul
Half•Alive is addictive to listen to lol
So I've just been introduced to Crush recently, and I've been obsessed with that
We all are
i am memorising the dance as we speak 💃
:O
O:
the last few counts of the dance is the first counts of the choreography except danced in rewind
You have it easy, you can just animate it, Maaz.
Get a life because I'm wayyyy ahead of you
Not only was the song, choreography, and cinematography incredible, but half-alive managed to beautifully portray the thoughts and emotions that have been running through all of our heads this past year. And to me, that's what makes this song, and half-alive as a whole, incredible.
amen!
No matter where your 2020 Opinions™️ land, I think we all can relate.
YEEEES
Too bad it's ONLY about the environmental crisis and not about the environmental crisis + social injustice + the current state of the world + our collective experience in a pandemic.
so we all agree we will show up to their concerts in full formal clothing when it's safe?
I hate dressing up, but I will literally rent a whole three-piece suit to make this happen.
I agree
I agree

I agreeee yesss
Can't wait for this comment to have hundreds of ppl agreeing to join in.
I feel like the boys have leveled up their dancing even further, which is incredible, considering the choreography is always my favorite part of these videos. Way to go Half Alive!
Yeah right? It was always great but they keep getting better!

Fighting myself right now. Think I'm losing. Is that good or bad? 🤔

How did you do?
Gosh I LOVE the “Yippee-Ki-Yay” part so much
what does yippee ki yay mean?

When the world needed them most, they *returned* .
haha good one
Does this mean an album?
I Stan this quote.
The Last Limb-benders
no seriously you see how they move them holy shit
*returned*
Everything about 0:47 is perfection
The verse, the camera angles, choreography that matches with the rhythm, background mood, colors, etc.
And this dance doesnt work if they're not wearing the suits
And yippiee kai yay
If you like dancing there's also 2:27 & 2:46 (that has the whole band) ... visually cool is 2:14
I literally gasped at that moment. It’s so good!
Yes, really satisfying!
anybody watching this for the first time: there's a section from 2:10 to 2:24 with intense flashing lights, so be careful if you're sensitive to that! amazing work though ::)

Lyrics:
Your time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong
Time is always right in past tense
Avoiding is my newest obsession
Started with the right intentions
But left 'em on the shelf
So tell me how to live in tension
'Cause every "could've been", kills
when living here has been hell
And I can't hold it myself
Mmm-AH
The whisper in my heart, it could
never speak up
The message in my chest gathered
too much dust,
I can't afford the truth, even if it's
unjust
Keep it top shelf, keep it all locked
up so
Yippee ki-yay, it's not my blood
but
Every single day it calls my bluff,
it's
Not okay, then it ain't quite done,
then it ain't quite done
No
The time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong
The time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong
Looking through a haze, I'm basing
Everything around me on traces
The criminal I've been chasing is
wearing my shoes now
The whisper in my heart, it could
never speak up
The message in my chest gathered
too much dust,
I can't afford the truth, even if it's
unjust
Keep it top shelf, keep it all locked
up so
Yippee ki-yay, it's not my blood
but
Every single day it calls my bluff,
it's
Not okay, then it ain't quite done,
then it ain't quite done
No
oh my God, it ain't quite, why
Hold on? it ain't quite love
Hold on, it ain't quite done
No, oh my God, it ain't quite, why
Hold on? it ain't quite love
Hold on, it ain't quite done
The time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong (Ooh)
Time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong
(What's wrong, what's wrong,
time's always right)
The time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong
The time's al-
-ways right
to fix what's wrong
The time's al-
-ways right
to fix
what's wrong

2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.

After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet

Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

1:01 This part, all of the dancing is super fucking good but this part is especially satisfying and I don't know why
I CAN'T STOP WATCHING IT HELP THEY SO SMOOOOOTH ITS SO ATTRACTIVE
"The time's always right to fix what's wrong."
Honestly the best hook you've ever written. Props to you guys
i literally cannot get over this the choreography and the music and the cinematics holy shit this is just completely mental
Ikr especially the choreography it is crazy
british spotted
"Time is always right to fix what's wrong", This is literally the best lyric ever made.
I agree
The slowed version is on my channel✨
half alive are actually the only male artists that I would watch live and see them perform with their dancing... I can not stop repeating that first chorus choreo IT'S SO FUCKIN GOOD
No Young the Giant? :(
Seen them live a few months ago in Fort Lauderdale FL and the dancing In person is fucking amazing
What about Glass Animals?
0:49 is my favorite part, the dancing is just amazing
Same
It's great
I love this part cuz its intense all of a sudden, fits the song, its a nice dance, and the angles they give to the scenew with the cameras make everything better!
Same
It hasn't even premiered yet, I already know this song is going to be played on repeat for the next few months for me :> LET'S GO
at 0:24 each pose is so perfectly timed and exaggerated that he almost looks animated.
Teachers: "Don't use Wingdings"
Half-Alive: "I disagree"
Half alive really be doin the funkiest dance moves and just stand by that
the perfect synchronicity of 0:47 is BY FAR. one of the sexiest things i've ever seen. TAKE IT TO THE BANK BOYS, ANOTHER KICKASS MUSIC VIDEO
Toe to tip, kickass.
Yo, I have to agree
DUDE RIGHT? ITS SMOOTH
I honestly can't - it's so good. x.x

I can't get over the repetition in this, that feeling of going in circles in your own head or house, feeling like you're going nowhere and always ending up back at the same place. Even when you're trying your best and it feels like things are changing those feelings are still there pulling you back into the cycle. It killed me when i realized the opening dance is being done in reverse at the end, reminds me of picking apart your past in order to find the thing that's broken. just. wow, all around.
can't wait to put this song in the background of all my instagram stories during the next week
Michelle Fulbright they were my hyper fixation for a full 8 months at one point so i feel you
Ok thanks for calling me out 😂
Time to memorize the lyrics in a single afternoon
i already did it hehe
Big same
Me when I’m memorizing their lyrics: 🏃♂️
Me trying to remember someone’s name 0.5 seconds after they said it: 🐢
Time to learn the choreo in a single year.
@@rohanimations honestly 😂
I know they’ve danced before but they REALLY brought out the moves for this one. Beautiful boys.
Their live shows are an EXPERIENCE, its much more than a concert it's a whole production and it's amazing, once live shows start up again there is nothing that will stop me from seeing them again, especially with a new song that's so extremely fire
Seriously though they are amazing!! I’ve never heard of them until Wednesday night when they opened for twenty one pilots!!! Their show was amazing along with Jay Joseph and of course the legends themself Twenty one pilots!! ❤️❤️
i LOVE how the choreography has become a regular thing wIth Half Alive! it’s great to see bands embracing dance more.
You're late to the party. They've been dancing since their first releases.
Half alive is one of those groups where their songs get better and better every time you listen to them
how come u can read my mind
Truth
some songs i remember initially going ' meh i like it but not that much ' and put in my playlist i end up accidentally jamming out to hardcore after a few times of listening it to it
@@randompromises1038 Haha, same
@@puranix Video?
So nice of my Grandma to let them film this video in her house.
You’re not kidding right!???!!
@@angelinebena9675 they are probably kidding.
@@elbowsbuns1896 yeah it’s a joke
Your grandma's aesthetic. 😌👌
Funny 😂
The cinematography in this video is off the charts, this piece is a true gem.
Wait. But the initial few seconds of choreography at the beginning of the song being performed in reverse to close out the song is actual poetry to me and a play on this entire lyrical journey about how the time is right - right now. The movements wound back in reverse makes me feel as if we were back to the start of the video, giving you a chance to make that move now. Go move your world, everyone!
Ya know, you didn't have to share that really cool piece of insight, but you decided to do so just to make me love this a little bit more. Thank you :D
Picked up on that, but also! 2:32 just before it almost seems like the same choreography but done by a group instead of one person to me? Such a cool interwoven mv
@@sangawanga7462 that whole section is so hypnotic
There's a word for that in chroeography, and its retrograde. Where you do the same phrase backwards.
Yes! I noticed that! It’s so cool!
okay so it's been 5 seconds and I'm already obsessed
yall called every college student with no motivation rn out with “avoiding is my newest obsession” (,,:
I'm a college student and this song and aawake alive are my anthems atm. Life is very confusing and complicated right now and I don't know what to do. I believe in God and believe He or She has a plan for me, but I don't know what it is and these songs are describing my life and emotions perfectly
@@lonnisplace1459 Hope it goes well for you!
literally procrastinating a report by watching this.
@@diegosanchez894 You too😩
@@diegosanchez894 what are the odds lol
half alive music videos always feel deeply nostalgic while simultaneously being ahead of the curve.
also catchy as hell, I can't get this one out of my head.
I`m so in love with this "M U T C H D A S T A"
that’s how i sing it too now 😂😂
I thought I was the only one! It's so pleasing to the ears
called half•alive, yet constantly delivering the aesthetics and the vibes on the whole.
0:40 the way he says "dust" is sooo satisfying idek why
Dust ah
Yo bro your gay
@DeadBerry lmao poggers
discovered this song cause of Tyler Joseph talking about it in one of his interviews and OMFG?? im obsessed???? i used to listen these guys a few years back but i had a phase where i just didnt have the mental energy to listen to anything but i genuinelly think im gonna start listening to half alive again :)
Well it took me all day yesterday to learn the dance at 0:48 but I finally did it. Unfortunately I woke up this morning couldn't walk anymore because of the pain so looks like I won't be doing it again.
Oh my gosh when the beat drops as 0:49 I lost my frickin mind
I love the visuals they always put with their music. It enhances the feeling they want, and it looks so cool :D
i- i cant express how much i love this song just everything, the lyrics, cameras angles and movements, dancing, colors i cant hecking express how much i love half alive
i just realized that the end choreo josh does on his own is the reverse of the choreo he does in the beginning *mindblown*
Oh my god, you're right
헐..대박이다
welcome to the longest 18 hours of my life as i wait for this to come out
THE CHOREOGRAPHY HAS ME SCREAMING
These are SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!! The cinematography, the lighting the CHOREO, the music, the acting, the set, the EVERYTHING!!! WOW!!! fan-freakin tastic job!!!
"time’s always right to fix what’s wrong" will live in my head alongside "there should be no hesitation, when the coast is clear" (first line of Apples in the Trees by Mirah) haunting my compulsive overthinking ass
Also the lyric "the hardest place to be is right where you are" from Arrow for me
I was lucky enough to see Half Alive in concert before the pandemic hit and it was absolutely amazing can't wait to hear this track !
Bro really? Their live shows looked epic even in video.
one of my biggest regrets was missing the concert when it toured near me
@@zynel413 They are absolutely amazing live! Definitely go if you ever get the chance 👀
Their live shows are insanely good.
Can confirm. I saw them October of 2019 and it was my favorite concert I’ve been to.
the dance at 0:46 makes my brain go brrrrr
Yippee Kia Yay!
Ok but like for wanting to make the message of this song clear, yall really didnt dumb it down or make it too on the nose.. I love songs that are so personal and specific and yet can apply to a variety of situations because they depict an emotional state rather than the event/opinion/belief that inspired them. Also i love when song lyrics are pure poetry like yalls and work together with the music and the video and choreography and it all just fits so well to create this pure beauty. thanks for making music to feel in my heart guys!!
lyrics if you prefer comments:
time is always right in past tense
avoiding is my newest obsession
started with the right intentions
but left ‘em on the shelf
so tell me how to live in tension
‘cause every could’ve been kills when
living here has been hell
& i can’t hold it myself
the whisper in my heart - it could never speak up
the message in my chest gathered too much dust
i can’t afford the truth even if it’s unjust
keep it top shelf, keep it all locked up
..
so yippee ki-yay it’s not my blood
but every single day it calls my bluff
it’s not ok then it ain't quite done
then it ain’t quite done
no
the time’s always right to fix what’s wrong
looking through a haze i'm basing
everything around me on traces
the criminal i’ve been chasing
is wearing my shoes
the whisper in my heart - it could never speak up
the message in my chest gathered too much dust
i can’t afford the truth even if it’s unjust
keep it top shelf, keep it all locked up
..
so yippee ki-yay it’s not my blood
but every single day it calls my bluff
it’s not ok then it ain't quite done
then it ain’t quite done
no
oh my God it ain't quite
why hold on, it ain't quite
love, hold on it ain't quite done
the time’s always right to fix what’s wrong
(also i write songs inspired by Jeremy Zucker/Lauv. I'd love if you give a shot to my music and subscribe 'cause most probably you won't regret
I honestly thought some of it wasn't English, thank you XD
I can listen to half•alive songs on loop for hours and not get sick of it. Speaks volumes of your music quality! ☺️
Josh's face from 1:26-1:30 just does something to me man
SAME
making everyone question their sexuality like 🥵
no because you read my mind
same 😩 awooga
same omg
Josh, you're a lyrical genius. I keep coming back to listen to this song everyday, I love it.
As the kids say, Big Mood.
But also, the choreography in this is top notch. I also love the surrealism.
Oh my GOD that first choreography and cinematography in the first chorus is so GOOD
I’m so excited, I know this is gonna b such a good song!!!
@@beckybee353 you were the one dislike weren't you.
The lyrics speak to me as I child who had a hard time coming out to myself.
The lyrics speak to me as a teen who was lost in life and still struggling to find a place in the world.
The lyrics speak to me as a young adult who's filled with fear of being so broken I'll live the rest of my days unaccomplished after an ADD diagnosis.
The entire song gives me hope.
same!!! I've been struggling with OCD and my religion and wow...I love this song!
0:48 This room is so pretty
The hair, the choreo, the aesthetic, the vocals, the lyrics ✨IMMACULATE✨
As someone who has been struggling with depression and anxiety for a very long time now, I want to say, thank you! Your music has helped me a lot in dark times and especially "still feel." and "arrow" have been holding a spot in my heart. "Still feel." lyrics always felt made for me in a sense that it gave me something to relate to and also has given me the courage to work on what I have been struggling with for so long. "Whats wrong" hits the same spot for me as arrow and still feel. Keep it up guys youre all amazing
me too!
AYO,same bro
Same boat as you guys. This music has truly helped me.
Same here.
I know, right? The other two songs you mentioned are the ones I've gravitated to as well. It's cool to see half•alive's relatable lyrics, cathartic dancing and catchy grooves in these tracks bettering people's mental health!
I love how at 1:54 it goes "ain't quite right" and the room just isn't quite right and he starts adjusting everything
Ok but 0:45-1:05? This section stole my heart
You’re not alone 😂
And myy
mans started a chorus with yippee-kai-fucking-yay and made it slap and I just can't do anything about that huh
mm-mmm
It reminds me of a scene from the series LEGION where audrey plaza was dancing in a suit
YO THE DANCING IS SO GOOD???
DAMN they look like professional dancers, from still feel which was charming in its roughness to this its absolutely incredible.
Thats so awesome.
Leaving the quarantine pajama era for the dressed in tuxedos and party dresses era :3
This. This is everything. Ya’ll have no idea how much this is after cheering me up
We come full circle. I distinctly remember another creator making a video/reference to how well this specific music video was made, I watched it, and then moved on not thinking anything of it. A year later, I get hooked on Creature, Still Feel. , and Trust, and finally back to this song and video, finally realizing that I've been here before.
I've never been this emotionally invested with a band before. The choreography, passion, lyrics, tune--everything just spoke to me. I spilled tears as the song ended. You guys are keeping me alive, even if I'm only half alive. Thank you for making such amazing songs.
0:48 I keep replaying this part an unhealthy amount of times
Does the video end on the popcorn-ceiling because it's "what's wrong?"
Is this song actually about putting off retexturing the ceiling?
Retexturing really is a pain in the butt

I caught myself that every time I watch this mv I want to press "like" but it's already done and then I'm like "ohh.."
i am absolutely obsessed with this music video omg
Me encanta el toque especial que le pone la coreografía, excelente servicio
same
apenas la escuche una vez y ya es mi favorita (sin exagerar)
totalmente
el pasito del 0:46 , ulala
Qué haces aquí Fred? Si eres real dímelo ahora
@@vicentevalenzuela6631 los pasos prohibidos :)
Watching What's Wrong is my newest obsession
Just a PSA for those affected by strobe lights: from about 2:09 to 2:25 in the video there’s a sequence of bright flashing lights between scenes
