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

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."

he voice sounds like home

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?

How old is he?

I cannot believe that after doing this interview they wrote the lyrics wrong for the sket part on the website?

okay but hearing him talking about these deep topics with *that* accent ...😍

“A rapey dude” HAHA

I'm so happy they're getting appreciated more for their beautiful music but I'm also kinda jealous cause I want to keep them for myself 😭

"if you're a bit of a rapey dude or whatever then you should be scared about me too"

i have no idea what he means but i still love him

He’s always so invested in a conversation/interview i luv

I want to see The 1975 in concert again :(

i love listening to him ramble on about that stuff i could listen to it for hourrrrsss

Matty is really a fucking dictionary

I relate to him a lil bit

"A rapey dude"?? Wtf

Legendem em portugues brasileiro por favor

Hes so relatable

Matty is such an attention catcher I could just be silent and listen to him talk about math and it would still be interesting I swear ❤😂

Hes amazing as a person

I feel so smart just listening to Matty talk.

can I have it's not living if it's not with you lyrics and meaning? haha

Blah blah blah

I love this man

i love this man

matty's lyrics are genius but Genius can't spell- it's perceived/conceiving/deceiving

The words he uses to describe I can’t I’m melting goodbye

Stick to the singing mate, this is where you start to loose fans. Have these people managers??

Play the song in the background of this and damn you can see everything falling in place.

i’ve watched this about a hundred times. i have no regrets.

SHOUTOUT LOVE ISLAND

not even just saying this because i'm a fan but this man is a true artist and has an amazing mind

I always have the urge to write a song & then I watch videos like this & I realize I'm not nearly as creative as I thought I was 😂

He’s so articulate it’s amazing

Intelligence and warmth are the hardest things to share, and yet they're the only things worth giving to each other.

He says so many important things in this video. It‘s like a good life lesson for young people like me for example

I could listen to him talking all day. It‘s mesmerizing

I forgot how much I love him.

You basic.

I’m too sleep deprived to understand anything that is being said

he’s an aries and this makes it obvious

yo he’s like.... smart.

i before e except after c lyrics genius, christ.

_w o k e_

i love this man

Am i stupid or is he just too damn smart ?

my idol is so woke

Why did my dumbass not understand half the shit he said 😂

“Like social media breeds us to be incredibly insecure beings. My self esteem isn’t really wrapped up in social media. Because my relationship with social media is kind of like, this is what I do. Whereas for a lot of people it’s... And for young people, especially, this who I am. And that’s fucking brutal.”
- Matthew Healy 2018

matty swallowed a thesaurus

On social media "And young people, especially,.. this is who I am, like that's fucking brutal" wisdom and awareness

I actually gained alot of knowledge from this

i made a guitar cover of this song if any1 wants to listen ;-)))

Matt’s a hufflepuff and that’s the only tea sis 🤪

if I watched this before my English exam, I would have aced it

It is wonderful to see Matty well, well-spoken, and speaking on sincerity, of all things. He's come so far and I love him so much.

One of the best writers of our time

finally I know what the end of the song means far out!

PLEASE HE HAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MIND

WE JUST REACTED TO THIS - WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE 1975??!!

I love him

Lol to pie off is to swerve

i could barely understand half of what he said

What the fuck is with the lyrics about not having children. Fruity little bastard.

Honestly write a book

um why hasn’t he had a ted talk ?

Strange urge to punch this guy...

i love this man

I want to listen to him forever

I just acknowledged that my IQ is probably like 2 I understood nothing but I fk love it.

Imagine him teaching you philosophy. You'd be like 🤯🤯🤯
Nihilism 101

What does the "nah I'm just messin'" refer to?

what an honest and complex song. I had to rewind a bunch to catch what he was saying again

i had no idea these were the lyrics lmaoo i love matty's accent tho

im in love.. no homo

Ahhhh I love how he didn't generalize regarding postmodernism and was specific about referring to **pop** culture*! A real one right here folks

wtf is he saying like could anyone translate that

He sounds depressed

Well I'm confused

If I did one of these on one of our songs I would be talking for too many hours

Bless him for this 1:51 we love a man with common sense 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
