The 1975 "Sincerity Is Scary" Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified

put on pants

Thank god he spoke and didn’t sing the lyrics

This man is a G E N I U S. love you Matty

I love everything about this. Especially how he observes that irony is a tactic to avoid dealing with stuff, sort of a coping mechanism. Maybe it's always been like this, but young people do this a lot more nowadays, I think. That's why I sometimes prefer to stop being ironic and try to be sincere because it often really pays off. You connect more with other people that way. That doesn't mean that I'm never ironic, just sometimes it's good to take a step back and say how you actually feel, even if it sounds cheesy or cliché.

I feel enlightenment everytime Matty starts talking

Hes aging backwards

NAH IM JUST MESSING TE AMO BEBÉ

Finally genius with real artists again

fav song on the album by far

wig flew

Matty is so deep

he is speaking british and i can’t UNDERSTAND

i literally could sit here and listen to him talk all day and never get bored

Matt's genius, honest, and attractive really ... really ...

Shittttt he smart

he can literately save the world

Wtf did genius cut most out of the interview?

I fell damm stupid because I did not understand anything hahhaa!

Excuse me, but where’s the rest of the band?

i'm writing a poem for a writing contest at my school and this is my homework :)

Matty saying the lyrics instead of singing them all awkwardly just makes the vid so much better

I feel smart and dumb at the same time after watching this video

I wish I even had like a little bit if instinct to write a song. I have to really think about it to be even a sixteenth of meaningful as the shit some of my favourite artists are putting out.

He’s so articulate , we love that 😂😩

The 3D ideas he has.. just blows my mind.... he's such an artist 💗

It feels like he's read 12 rules

I wish Matty would sing, he's got such a beautiful voice 💕

this is some deep shit

Something about him reading lyrics instead of singing them is really enjoyable, like someone reading a poem. Honestly starting to prefer him reading than singing to an extent

I love matty

Love

I just adore this guy. Adore,Adore..

Love Matty’s stereotypical English-ness
I can say that because I’m from England

This makes the title of the album so much clearer

he is kinda like british version of tyler joseph

you're so smart

nobody:
matt healy, an intellectual: this

Wait I thought the last lyric was 'some sket who wanted to bxtch' is that right or did he just not want to curse

Love my countries slang. K bye my Gs

Bitch ilysm. Dare i say The way you explain things is satisfying.

Jesus christ why is he so sexy

I feel like Siri is giving me a word definition and it’s been going on for way to long

He’s a lyrical GOD

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

Aye I am the 1,000th comment

We love a non rapey dude idk

Your Fucking Mind I-

I ducking love you

Please father

Come back to San Francisco soon

But I’m gonna be out of the country ughhh

Tryna go to a 1975 show in April

We love an I n t e l l e c t u a l

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
