whenever I look up this song, I usually forget that teenage pregnancy is an actual thing and just type “teenage pregnancy” expecting that blank banshee would instantly pop up.
I'm still a kid- born to a teen pregnancy. Please don't let yourself have a child whose fate will be the same as mine. I have fought and fought my whole life to catch up to those who had two parents ready for children. Grew up without a father to a teen mother- Not having love or guidance does something to you that's hard to repair
for anyone who's wondering and also because i think its a fun fact, the "it was just a little mistake" and "i'm just a kid" are from degrassi junior high. it's when spike gets pregnant (s1 ep 6)
This song brings back great memories from 2016 when I first discovered vaporwave. I hope everyone in the comment section who pours out their heart ends up fine. Nothing but love
Really makes me think about all both sides of teenage pregnancy the child and the mother. The mother thinking shes a mistake because of the pregnancy and the child knowing their mother didnt have them on purpose and they were the source of a dark time. Both being children and both thinking they were/made mistakes. honestly just a few lyrics can make such a thought provoking emotional and nice to listen to song.
I remember falling asleep with music playing on new years 2016 and waking up in a cold sweat after a fever dream with this shit playing, 10/10 experience would recommend
2/14/2024 4:55 am I saw other people doing this. I like to feel included. Wherever you are in life, whatever you're going through, never forget the person you are at this moment. Don't lose yourself in this world. All you have is yourself in the end, so treat yourself accordingly.
tbh this song just is so creepy in ways i can’t describe, not only in the way of how it is linked to teenage pregnancy, but how they very few lyrics could mean many things. when i first heard this song i did not know what the song was called or about, and it immediately reminded me of when i used to try and make myself “somebody that would be liked and appreciated” by putting myself down and telling myself i was worthless for not being perfect. for example the lyrics “it was just a little mistake” reminds me of when i thought that making myself feel horrible was a “little mistake,” and the way that line repeats reminds me of how i would continue to tell myself that even when it got worse instead of talking to anyone about it because i thought nobody would care at that time.i don’t honestly know if i suffered from some sort of “mental SH” even now because i never used to go to therapy to be told that, and even now, still being a kid i still haven’t. the way this song reminds me of this, even when knowing the name, makes me so uncomfortable to the point where i can’t stand listening to it but still do anyways on loop (and idk why) i know i may be just some kid on a comment section but i just felt i wanted to share this.
04/04/23 you’ll get over things, everything will eventually be in the past and be nothing more than memories. things good and bad, nothing lasts forever.
5/1/2023 I have no idea why other's are dating their comments like this, nor am I likely to find out. However, regardless of such, I have decided to make my own comment and it will be dedicated to telling the others who so happen to come across this to; - Remember to drink water. You need that hydration, stave off those headaches and feel a bit better for it. - Make sure to try and sleep on a regular schedule with enough hours. I'm a hypocrite for saying this but hey, doesn't mean it's not good to do, no? I'm trying my own best to keep on a schedule so that I help keep my mental health a little bit better than it would be if I hadn't. I believe in you, and it's okay if you break it a few times, just try your best to get on that schedule once again. - Remember to keep your living spaces / spot you exist in regularly clean! Just a little bit of organization, clean it up a smidge. Our environments affect our mental health funnily enough, a little bit of organization is good sometimes. - Remember to go in the wet box regularly! [Wet box: shower] Our physical state also affects our mental health, sometimes just freshening up like just washing your hair or making yourself look nice just for yourself helps out quite a bit! It's almost a bit stupid how well it works. I know personally I've figured out that each time my hair gets oily that I tend to end up being more depressed, soon as it's clean, Bam, much happier. It's so ridiculous that it works like that. - Make sure to eat! A bit self explanatory, give you some good energy, even if it's just something like snacky food when you haven't eaten anything else all day is good. Find some low effort foods to make repeatedly if cooking tends to be too much effort. That or just have a bunch of individual things that are good for ya that you just eat separately together in one meal, works all the same! Just need that Sustenance
i get that the whole "i'm just a kid/ it was just a little mistake" thing is referring to teen pregnancy, but it always makes me think of how i felt when i got arrested back when i was 14/ had to go through a bunch of legal shit for no good reason gives me the feels
Bro I used to listen to this like 3 years ago but all the comments are like a day old what kinda weird ass timeline are we in where vaporwave comes back in 2020
08/25/23 I’m still depressed, trying to escape Latin America because life here is difficult. This song brings me much melancholy and helps with the bad nights
Is no one gonna talk about how sad this song is? And how the the song lives up to its title? I've never been pregnant before obviously but in a way I understand the feeling the song is trying to convey. The feeling of wanting to go back, not wanting any of whats going on to real because you know its going to effect you forever.
Once, I heard this song playing in someone's car when I was in a city and I knew who played it must have had interesting choices in music. Its not often that you hear songs like this play in most peoples vehicles while they drive, it gave me a feeling I haven't had since the 90s.
3/3/2024 I remembered this song out of no where and searched for it everywhere and saw the comments commenting their good or bad stuff and i just went with it :)
Finding videos like this one is uncanny, with comments referencing inside jokes or old jokes that dont make sense anymore, other comments using this as a internet checkpoint. Its like the backrooms of youtube
10/10/22 i'm not sure why there are so many comments here suddenly because i randomly remembered this song, but it's nice to not feel alone. hope you're all doing well
6/10/22 Self-improvement was the best choice I've ever made in my life. Everyday, my confidence grows, my self-love grows, my anxiety gets easier, and I've got all A's for the first time in my life! Truly living at my best.
5/26/23 I just lost my dad almost two months ago I miss him so much but ik his suffering on this earth has ended and ik he’s happier away from this place. I love u so much dad and I will carry ur love and memories with me forever till the end💜
I remember liek this song for a long time. But once i found it titled teen pregnancy, the lines "im just a kid" and "it was just a little mistake" broke my heart.
04/14/23 Log: I’m a year and 17 months clean, but everything still feels the same as when I first heard this song. I’m 20 now, no longer 12 and scared for a pregnancy that wasn’t by mistake. But by force. I didn’t understand what it was, it was disaster in disguise. I was too young. We still are.
hey, I mean, don't be hating at the people that came here from tik-tok. atleast they actually took some time out of their lives to come and check out a piece of music which they liked. people find out different types of music in different ways which is only natural. being drawn to music can happen to anyone at any time, i.e, while watching a movie, playing a game etc.
This so really makes you think about all the times a kid messes up: relationships, trust, grades, love, body. "I'm just a kid" the simple-minded innocence thinking nothing severely bad can go wrong. It's like putting so many heavy things on a child, how easily it screws a child over-- losing the trust of your parents over a little mistake or thinking that breaking up was a good idea because you felt different... this idea of "I'm just a kid" is like saying "I studied for hours".... it was just a little mistake.
I remember listening to blank banshee back in 2016 I’m glad this shits finally getting the attention it deserves. I remember thinking that vaporwave would be the next big thing in music but not much ended up happening with it. I hope one day vaporwave gets the attention it deserves
watching degrassi junior high from the 80s and recognized the sound bite from the character who actually experienced teen pregnancy! so wild to hear the actress say those words and this song immediately popped into my head
2/9/23 I often feel like, "Why do I have to deal with this? I'm just a kid." Then I remember I'm 26 now and it's all on me to keep my life on track. Life was so much easier in school and college when i felt more supported. I feel directionless and unmotivated.
4/24/23 Work everyday but even with three people's income. It's barely enough to pay rent and bills. We disregard anything that's not important or immediate. I try to take joy in my writing. I try to do it for 2 hours everyday. But I can't help but feel like I'm moving backwards since I moved away from my hometown. I look at others and I see that same pain in their eyes. It's awful to know there's so much pain in those I love. I have hope we'll pull through this together. Somethings bound to give. Great song but also surprised to find this as an internet checkpoint
been listening to this song for almost 10 years! I make music now and blank banshee and vaperror were some of my biggest inspos. I’m currently trying to branch out the vapor trap genre with my own music.
