Laufey - Falling Behind (Official Audio) 

Yes!!! It’s so simple and so brilliant.

Yes - it’s another brilliant bit of songwriting… thanks Laufey! If anyone wants to learn to play it - I’ve made a real clear tutorial - hope you like! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vZQU8Sj-QzY.html

1 2 3 🥁

and how the song sounds like it's ending-- except. go to bed thinking it's over, that's it, that's the end of the day and nothing to show for it once again. fall asleep repeatedly murmuring "everybody's falling in love, everybody's falling in love, everybody's falling in love..." it feels like everything is over before it started. then before you know it-- feel the morning sunlight filtering through the blinds. it's a brand new day and anything could happen. and you whisper to yourself: "one, two, three--"

Feels very Chet Baker-ish

OH MY GAWSH I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAY , BUT NOW THAT YOU MENTIONED IT- IT ACTUALLY MAKES SOOOOOOOO MUCCCHHHH SENSEEEEEEE

Frrrr

Great, but Bossa Nova (Brazilian rhythm) is in 2/4 - the correct way would be for it to count: 1, 2... 1, ... Just a perfectionism on my part. But the music is perfect and so is the singer!

​@@VovoLeo.oficial she's falling asleep, so..

THE OUTRO SO AWESOME

@@lumpiavegetariana2196 you can do the other other guy on my side if if ur 😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😅😅😅😅😅😊😅or

Shes Falling Inlove

@@rhaivercodtan7879 i am falling behind

YAAA

YAAAAAAAAY

@@imanekml8137yipeeer

me too except the only crush ive had was when i was 7

broooo me too don't know what to do.

prob aromantic or smth

I like this song very much because it reminds me of my feelings before I realised I was aroace (Aromantic Asexual)

​@@_jenni4510yeah, probably

It's BAWLING! Balling is when you dribble a basketball (i think) . I can't get the image of a cat dribbling its eyeball to the beat of 9mm out of my mind

Damn, I didn't know your eyes were cool like that

Literally me. The only time I ever felt like I truly had a crush on someone, days later my best friend said he liked her and got her number, so I had to get rid of my first ever true feelings for someone. This song is the most true thing for me ever.

your eyes can definitely beat micheal jordan

I still don't know why, but whenever I hear the countdown I immediately tear up. There's something so nostalgic and bittersweet about it. Is there a meaning behind the countdown so I can ACUALLY have a reason to cry to the outro?

@@TheMaestro1275 I interpret the outro as love at first sight, or her finally falling. The song ends quietly and slow as she says "Everybody's falling in love, but me" . Maybe the countdown is signaling when she finally sees someone she likes or the exact moment she's fallen in love with somebody she knows. When she does finally fall in love, the instrumental picks back up again in full swing. It makes sense with the next songs in the album too :)

@@withoutwarningfl Thank you so much, I'm now going to listen to this song and sob

@@TheMaestro1275 no problem lmao. from one hopeless romantic to another😓

The ending sounds like a Tyler the creator song

Moved out to a new city June is dawning down on me And all that I can find is A sickly romance in the air Lovers stroll without a care inside Oh, this can't be right Cause the sun's engaged to the sky And best friend's found a new guy I'm only getting older I never had a shoulder to cry on Someone to call my Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind Touched the ocean, fell right in Stepped outside and burnt my skin My life won't go my way Bossa nova in my room Hope that I'll find someone too to love, because The sun's engaged to the sky And best friend's found a new guy I'm only getting older I never had a shoulder to cry on Someone to call my Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind Everybody's falling in love Everybody's falling in love Everybody's falling in love But me...

Its "in sight" not inside

@@LisaTutrow thank you

Thank you very much for posting the lyrics…God bless you

@@Ebee7 thank you for reading my comment among all other lyrics comments 🥰

I confirm this facts. 😀 Most underrated comment!

@@GuyHeadbanger Thank you! I can't even begin to explain how much Laufey's music has given me the hope that "good" music is still out there; and obviously, even though what's considered "good" is subjective, I really value the artistry of artists like her who actually take the time to actually play the music instead of rely on other people's samples and beats, and the raw sound of a carefully mastered recording of the instrumentals is just beautiful. I'm literally in love with this woman's talent, dedication, and soul expressed through her entire discography, and I'm just so excited to see where she goes from here

@@NakOut Last week - as a native German - I traveled by train in Germany. The train was rather full and loud, so I decided to hear some music on my cell phone, as it would not bother anyone. No headphones. So I listened to "The Girl from Ipanema" Astrud Gilberto, João Gilberto and Stan Getz, good old version. Right after a Laufey compilation started playing and around me people got silent, trying to get an idea, what I was listening to. Students, elderly ladies, it was amazing! Sure, I wish her as much success as possible, but on the other hand I am hoping that commercial success does not turn Laufey into one of those zombies we get to hear on radio these days. Maybe there are some old fashioned jazz producers around helping her out without corrupting her or pushing her.

She really is amazing. So glad to see bossa coming back too!

As a Brazilian i am so thankful that people are listening to bossa nova! Thank you so much. Viva a bossa nova.

ppl judge me for being a boy and loving laufey's music but its completely normal and its amazing music

@@checkm8bruhFr

So true bestie.

Same I listen to her everyday when I’m on the bus or in class Long live Laufey :)

Real

TOTAL CARA, a bossa nova é uma das nossas mais notáveis características! Solém, irmão.

SIMMMMM

Yeah!!!

love the pfp

im only 12 years old, but i know that you will find him. dont look too hard, he will come to you. 💗

I can kinda relate, I’m 24 and I hope I can find someone I can do all that stuff with. I’m sure you’ll find your person someday 🫶🏽

I'm you but a 20 year old guy. I have the exact same situation.

me but im 20!we’ll find our someone one day

It's a sign of the times it seems

I just love how you can feel comfortable just telling the comments how you feel🫶 I’ve been going thru the same thing sister/brother!🫶

Awww,@@Bobisnotbobbinynameisnotbob thank you very much!

staying delulu is the solulu

Ngl, it took me a couple minutes for this to click. Lmfao, I get it now. I mean jokingly, yes, in reality I feel learning to disconnect and live more present and learn how to be able to focus on what you have and try to bask in that rather than the pain and what we don’t have or feel we lack is key. In my experience at least. I struggle with sever depression sometimes and have lost many friends due to not being able to preform up to ideals even when I’m totally good most of the time and go above and beyond. It sucks but the reality is like… we’re better off knowing it eventually than having wasted more time on them. I’d rather stay alone and be lonely even than to keep putting what little energy I have to spare sometimes into others who don’t appreciate me or life outside of social media and stuff yn? So, sorry to get serious but I felt it was something I should have added on for anyone needing to hear. You’re worth fighting for in that people who really care about you and your well being won’t want you having to be out of touch with yourself or reality just to get on, they would want to see you get in touch with yourself and thriving EVEN if that means talking less often/consistently, even if that means you delete socials, they’ll want you to put your phone down for days and pick up books and make tea and bask in your own life and space you slowly make your own. That’s true and healthy friendship, they want you to be the best you and will root for you every step of the way whether in spirit for a bit while apart or just a lil text saying so to check in. Yn? Healthy distance for that is important and others should understand and so many don’t and I just felt I needed to vent about that. I hope you all start to build a bomb ass relationship with yourself and the space you live in. Just, love on yourself, you deserve it!!!! 🫶🏻😌🥰💖don’t let anyone tell you otherwise or make you feel guilty or uncomfortable about it either loves!

I feel the same. I feel like I’m never gonna find that right person y’know?

fr 😭😭

High school is one of the worst times to get a relationship; everyone is young and stupid. There will be plenty more chances - most statistically happen around age 30.

LITERALLY SAME my playlist is full with laufey's songs rn 😭💕

Listen to grentperez too, almost not a single bad song ever released by him

ikr

Virtual hugs. 💛

As an aroace gal myself, I understand you! It's so difficult explaining my orientation to other people without them either finding it funny, or telling me that I just haven't found the right one.

Same except what makes me feel like im falling behind isn't the lack of attraction but the repulsion part

Ah, yes. This was what I was looking for. I didn’t know what to imagine while listening to this song, but this is perfect. 👍

just my mind ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lwLi9MVAuZY.html

YESSSS

@@Snowpuff55is that so ? Mind telling me a few songs from it that are bossa nova

100%

bro…..yes

That would take with the big record labels coming around to Julie Andrews vocal styles again or independent/indie record companies coming alongside up-and-coming artists like Laufey who are reviving this genre of music for us millennials/GenZ peeps 🤞

Guess what my guy, she's slowly reaching the big leagues now

she's a big artist now!! she's going big man :]
