Can we just appreciate the title for a moment- "O.I.N.V" obviously sounds like "Oh I envy" and I can't believe the attention to detail with everything that Alec creates ♡♡♡
THIS SONG IS THE MOST UNDERRATED ALEC BENJAMIN SONG AND IT'S AN OUTRAGE BECAUSE I KNOW EVERYONE WHO LOVES ALEC WOULD LOVE THIS SONG IF THEY GAVE IT A CHANCE WHY DOES IT ONLY HAVE 700,000 VIEWS I'M ANGRY

First of all whoever disliked this, fight me. Second this is amazing as always. (Omg I just realized something is that the water fountain from ‘The water fountain’)
Oh my Lord. I absolutely love your voice, it lights up my day. So many of your songs have been stuck in my head for the longest time. I wish I could've supported you sooner, but I didn't have an account.

I. N. V. Envy the hands touching your face Envy the arms around your waist Envy the man taking my place O. I. N. V. I envy him I envy him I envy him
8 more days until I see this man in Detroit!!! I’m so happy I get to go to a concert!! I know he won’t sing this song but it’s one of my favorites right now.
this is so _raw_ your vocals give me goosebumps, they're haunting in an inexplicable way if you ever release this, please don't change A SINGLE THING absolute masterpiece, even after 4 years
Envy is such a powerful emotion that not a single one of us doesn’t experience. And the thing about envy is the only person that has to grapple with that emotion is the one that feels it. Thank you again Alec, for turning your lyrics and chords into something that breathes humanity and speaks to all of us.
Omg I remember when this came out! It was a day after my birthday and I loved the play on words in the title and lyrics. Still do! I haven't listened to Alec's recent stuff yet but I'm glad he's grown no much.
Your music gets me through so much in my life. I am going to a month long intensive inpatient hospitalization to try and reverse my physical disabilities. You always manage to put a smile on my face through your music, and take my mind off things. Keep doing what your doing!
I'm from Brazil, AND MAN, the people here love you. There is a video with the translation of your song, which has 9 thousand likes more than your original video. I LOVE YOUR SONGS, and I really want you to be more recognized. Thank u :) ❤🍃
I love how it sounds... Think this became my favorite song by Alec Benjamin right now. Like, lyrics are great, as always, but I think that this simple music feats perfectly with the message of the song. That low sound, the beat that is constant except before the chorus and when he say clearly what he feels... It's juste like how it feels to envy something, like a permanent beat inside your chest that only stop when you express it or have it. Billie Eilish also is also great playing with this effect in her song 'I love you', one of my favorite too. Well, really, that's a great work. I agree that this song is clearly underrated. Keep doing this songs like this, we'll be there to listen and appreciate it even if the others cannot understand how they're deep
This is one of those songs that doesn't hit you with how good it is until you listen to it a dozen times. I have it in a playlist with his music and I just never really noticed it very much but I've been obsessed with it the last couple days. I keep replaying it, the chorus is soooo good wow
So I’ve been wondering about posting a comment for a while but never did because I’m pretty shy and it stresses me out (you probably won’t see it anyway aha) but you’re so underrated and all your songs sound so beautiful that I was feeling the need to tell you to keep going and never stop because you’re really talented, wish you all the best.♡
I feel like this is the origin of water fountain, besides the picture itself the part "arms around your waist" "holding your hands" "kissing your lips" its kind of the same story but it's told differently.
This is such an awesome song!! Loved the word play, love the vocals, love the music. The only thing I don't love is the fact its not released yet ugh!!!!
