i cannot be the only one who has a HUGE crush on him. he’s attractive but the way he speaks and the way he carries himself is so attractive. ughhhhh
that could be something....
*I be flossin'*
Can he write a book
2:09 can we get a round of applause
i truly adore this man and so you do
he’s got such a calming voice
the only good genius video
bro i’m in love with your mind
I want A convosation with this wonderful human being, an intellectual
to be pief off is to be muggef off - oh you don't know what that means
Sincerity is scary because pride is a concept we value over how our feelings affect our social relations, we heroise ourselves and tell ourselves we’re being the bigger person, which really isn’t a thing. staying friends with an ex is hard, staying friends with ur friend who is dating your ex is even harder, but the sincerity in it all.
nooooice!!!!!
i wish he sung 😔
The Neighbourhood is better
Talking about me too, damn nice to see a guy who gets it
I honestly think i gained a few braincells from watching this, thanks matty you fucking intellectual
@genius, it's "i before e except after c". *perceived, *conceiving, *deceiving

We love a non rapey dude idk
Your Fucking Mind I-
Hottie

Be my father please
Ugh Matty
Tyler Josephs secret brother
How can people think this guy is something special? He's a fucking idiot
i heart him
My ‘self deprecating’ self could relate tbh lol
okay, but is he wearing pants?
He's an amazing songwriter I'm so glad the 1975 gains popularity cause they deserve it so much and their songs are incredible
just wondering why is he speaking the lyrics not singing them like everyone else does
2019 is gonna be THEYRE YEAR wow
The song is amazing, the album is even better.
Just...WOW!
Postmodern Philosophy: The1975
2:52 i felt that hard
Back when genius had real musicians
He's so fucking smart it's actually kinda scary
even him just explaining all this is like a poem in itself like what. ?
"Oh, you don't know what that means?"
I feel kinda dumb because I came here to hear him sing and got the exact opposite 😂 but I don't mind actually because it made laugh how disinterested and bored he sounds when he says those lyrics 😂
Damn I have to think for a while after I hear him say something to fully understand it 😬
He looks like tyler joseph of twenty one pilots
I dont understand shit! 😻😻😻
I love how he said Record instead of song idk i just love him
i love how genius does stuff like this but then has gabby also lmao
He comes off tired.
Omg, “sometimes your instinct is kind of what your art it is”...that sounds so simple but it’s so fucking true.
My brain hurts and im loving it
I would love to sit and have a conversation with him. I feel like it would just flow and we could talk about anything at all. He doesn’t seem like he would judge and you could just spill everything and he’d be like “yeah totally” and I love that about him.
Why does he always sound so intellectual oof
Matty is my dad
i feel like he’s so attractive now, i never found him attractive before this album
he’s cuuuttttttteweeeeeeeeee
I love him
He’s so deep
I would just like to thank God for giving us Matty Healy
i'm in LOVE with this man
Con él y tyler joseph aprendo más que estudiando 2 horas.
1:56 " if you're a bit of rapey dude" right...... I think there's more to worry about them coming across as sexist
I’m just sad he didn’t sing them😂
“It’s harder to be really sincere and soft and vulnerable in the face of earnestness”, reminds of that Morrissey lyric... “It’s so easy to laugh it’s so easy to hate, it takes guts to be gentle and kind”. Wonder if Matty is a Smiths fan 🤔
i wish i knew wtf he's talking about
this guy looks like the kid from transformers in the thumbnail
Can't believe Matt invented vocabulary.
"Genius"
Can he make a podcast already
WE WANT LANY
❤❤❤❤❤😍😍😍😍
_why can't we be friends matty.._
Whoever does these does not know how to spell it's perceive, deceive and conceive...
Tell me more
i could listen to him for hours even though i can't understand anything of what he's saying
These videos make me smart and happy
I was lowkey confused the whole time but i love him
I N T E L L E C T U A L
I love the way Matty explains things in a complicated way
Please do a podcast
i could listen to him for hours but at the same time i could punch him at any time
I really love hearing him explain the into, as an aspiring/working musician. It is really difficult to say "alright that song is done". -Because of the fact that you want it perfect. So to hear someone say "to go with your instinct" means the world really to any type of artist (painter, digital, 3d, animator,guitarist etc.)
wow wow wow
me caso
you should sing these so my hear can melt
Sub español please
He is TOO smart
The fact that people are fawning over this guy is insane to me.
He has to be the most self-righteous, ignorant person I've seen. I mean he actually had the audacity to suggest if you don't want to be accused of rape, just don't be "Rapey." As if no man has ever been falsely accused before.
As if they all (innocent or not) have done something or another to provoke the accusation.
And then to top it off, he throws himself on a pedestal, claiming he could never be accused because he treats women right... To me this is equally as egregious as the people who say
"If you don't want to get raped, don't dress provocatively." Sorry, but it's a lot more complex than that. Not all actions are provoked. Anybody can get raped (or accused of rape) at any time. Doesn't matter who you are... Even a pretentious asshole celebrity that "treats women right."
i fucking LOVE this song
The thumbnail is the best looking ive seen on genius verified idk why
has the death to postmodernism arrived?? are we now at the age of earnestness? can we finally stop being angsty teens?
eloquent
👏🏻👏🏻
On genius it says the song ends with “bitch on you” ?
So uhh... Matt Healy for 2020?
