The shows emotions feel so real. I went through a rough breakup last year and it sounds dumb and idk what it is but I feel like I relate to Dave’s emotions so much in every episode. This show is so funny but real at the same time. It’s perfect
Agreed, they capture every emotion very well. It’s an amazing show. It will hit you in the feels. Hang in there. Everyone needs to hurt sometimes. It will help you heal in the long run.
I went through a breakup right when season 2 started, its shocking how close to home these emotions hit and it almost feels like this season was made for me personally. Episode 2 especially did as well
My friend told me that this episode was supposedly sad, we've been keeping up on the show together, so we watched it today and let me tell you I have never shown much emotion to my friends because i try to be the bastion of strength to my friends and family. But this, this broke me and I couldnt help but cry. I had a great woman once, and to this day i believe she was the one, but i fucked it up being young and stupid. Its been 2 years now since we broke up and I havent loved anyone like i love her. And what makes this hit so hard, as well as just about everything that has to do with Ally in the show, is that I relate so much to it. And coincidentally her name is Ali. I actually gave her that nickname, her full name is Alicia and when we first started dating she told me she hated that name, so I said I would always call her Ali. And it stuck, and now everyone calls her that. Damn do i miss her.
Couldn’t relate more been 4 years till this day i still think about it and this episode just did it for me so i feel you,if you have any chance or opportunity to get her back take it she’s probably the one.
As someone who had a high school sweetheart and was broken when it was over I can tell you that you'll never feel that way about someone else. And that's okay. I eventually moved on and what I have now is so much better and healthier but it isn't the same. First time loves, first time break ups, first time anything is usually the most special bc it's the first. I love my girlfriend but I don't experience the same emotions with her that I did with my first but it's still special and we're each other's rock.
bro its been a year since you commented, but i sincerely hope you got better. im kinda drunk right now but this song hits hard for me too. its been 5 years for me and i never had some kind of relationship with a women since then. i just hope that i find someone one day that i can truly love like dave seemed to love ally. Wish you all the best
I started going through a breakup right when season 2 started, it's crazy how close to home these emotions hit. This show is so relatable it almost feels like it was made for me specifically, but I'm sure everyone here feels that way too I was in a 3 year relationship and technically I was the one who broke up with her, I still think it was the right choice and that it was for the better. But that doesn't make it easier in any way...I question myself everyday whether it was actually the right choice and I'm still trying to adjust to not having someone in my life who I considered one of my best friends Not to mention trying to move on, its very hard. this show did a great job at showing the struggles of that beautifully
damn it this songs so beautiful and makes me cry cause of how nice it is and how i don't have someone to love....everything hurts and my eyes are puddles
I tend to keep my emotions bottled up, and after watching this episode, i lost it. The other night i fell asleep to this on repeat and just sat there and thought about the mistakes i made with my ex who i dated for 4 years. Unfortunately i messed everything up in that relationship. This girl did everything perfectly. There wasn’t a moment where she messed up in the entire relationship. When i got into another relationship, I constantly thought about her. My mind wasn’t in the right place for a while, and i still constantly think of her hoping she’s doing good and happy. One time she told me as a joke “you’ll never find a better girl than me” and she smiled because in that moment, i knew she was the one. And i messed it up. There will never be a girl who is as kind, beautiful, loveable, as her. I miss her a lot and it’s pretty difficult for me right now to type this knowing how much she did for me and i just fucked it up. I put this in my twitter bio hoping one day she stumbles upon it and clicks the link and even might see this comment. But i just want to let her know how sorry I am. Hopefully the comments from this aren’t too aggressive, i feel a little better letting my emotions out to complete strangers. To the girl who deserves every bit of happiness, I still love you and i hope you’re doing well. You deserve it.
I heard it more like "owl-ly", and he follows it with a "hoot-hoot". Hoot is his nickname for her. She told him not to call her that anymore in the Bar Mitzvah episode.
Andrew Santino is what sells this scene his acting is perfect. When he first starts the song you can see him looking for the funny line to come up, then when Dave sits down he realizes something is wrong and then when the second "I fucked the whole thing up" hits he realizes that it's a real song from Dave.
Kind of can't stop listening to this, the emotions are so raw and real, I really hope they release this as a single, they need to release the prison song from the show too, absolutely hilarious.
I cant wait to see Dave take a W this season. I feel like the whole season has been nothing but him struggling and it's going to make it that much sweeter when he gets a win
I think Mike softly laughing during the hoot hoot part was so sweet. It's like when you hear something really deep and you laugh cause it's so good. But also seeing his friend reveal this side of him and he knows it's real.
It's his nickname for her, "Owly," which he why he also does the hoot hoot afterwards. But yeah pretty sure her name is Ally since it's close to Molly.
Maybe it's because I'm going crazy after listening to this masterpiece 100 times, but at 0:35 you can hear the difference in the audio between playing the song from the computer, and actually playing it on the show, if that makes sense. It really heightens your emotions as it gets louder.
It's such a flawless audio transition. I'm a sound engineer for TV and it's the first thing I noticed. The gradual unfiltering of the song actually pulls your ear more into the song. Genius mix.
there are just some singers that can put lyrics together that can just hit you where it matters, and i feel like personally, when it comes from an unexpected source it hits a little harder than you would think it would or should. The way dave is just poking his hand with his finger, the simple fidget of doing that as the lyric hits of now im alone with my rap verse, it just elevates the song to the extreme. Its like the feeling of dread, like that hollow feeling you get like the lyric just fell into your empty stomach and you just feel it.
Just tapping back in to say even the editors on this show are amazing. Look at the cut at 0:28 with Mike turning his head. Perfectly synced. Acting, writing, directing, wardrobe, and even editing on this show are seriously master class. Very impressed.
Not gonna lie this song definitely got the tears flowing. When this episode came out Wednesday it was 2 years to the day my partner of 8.5 years told me she didn’t love me and wanted a divorce. Shit came out of left field too and I never expected it. I always hoped we could atleast remain friends and still talk (considering she had been on my life for a third of it) but she wants absolutely nothing to do with me. I wasn’t the worst partner (wasn’t the best either) but I definitely took her for granted and am lost without her & would do anything to go back in time to change things..
The emotional acting through this whole episode was something special that I never expected. This season has been so sad and tragic, while still managing to be full of humor, and this episode really put it all in perspective. Like I actually give a shit and hope for Dave's personal growth. For a show about some guy making raps about his fucked up dick that really speaks to amazing writing and vision.
"What do I do when the rap life Make a motherfucker choose up in that fight? Make a young couple do something sad like Being broke up even though we had life" Is basically " I fucked it all up.... now I'm all alone with my rap verse"
A lot of his relationship with ally stems from Dave’s real relationship and subsequent breakup with a girl named Molly (see Molly’s Song). If he continues to pull things from that relationship, they do not get back together.
I really hope him and Ally gets back together I got so emotional this episode especially when she told him she couldn’t go back to how they were my heart broke but I’m still hoping
They aren’t going to. Unfortunately Dave seems to only be able to change himself for a small period of time before he slips back into being narcissistic. And ally is based on the girl he was in love with in real life molly. I don’t see them getting back together. Sucks but it is what it is
