You're purposely misunderstanding which is the ironic part. 

 

The criticism people had was when they didn't realize the subject matter or that it wasn't a comeback single. Instead of arguing about how they should've understood the lyrics as quickly as you why is it hard to just accept they didn't? 
 

Nobody wanted to purposely dismiss her having a struggle with cancer. 
 

We all hope she gets better and serves a great album. 

Thank you 

The way some people here are musically ignorant and can't appreciate music if it can't do big numbers or if it's not an upbeat gay bop (or both)

So sorry that someone's life threatening illness has inconvenienced you. You must have a very beautiful life, congratulations.

You guys are right, I was too insensitive with my comment and I want to apologize for it. I haven't fully analised the lyrics upon my first listen and I was at the beach listening to Charli XCX's new album right before it so I wasn't paying much attention, I'm sorry for being so careless with my words and I wish Halsey all the best.

 hope you had a beautiful beach day, no hard feelings!! 

This is so beautiful. I really wish her the best and can't wait to hear the album 

Yeah y'all are cooked. She had stated it wasn't a single before release and the lyrics aren't difficult to interpret.

 

Beautiful song. Sad to hear she's been going through this, hopefully she's ok in general.

Halsey is signed to a major label isn't she? I love her a lot, but the music not doing well could mean she could be not allowed to release music after this project and be tied into a bad contract

 

IICHLIWP didn't perform well, so I'm not sure if her label would be ok with 2 albums in a row not doing amazingly

 

Unless she is independent now?

Halsey herself has said that her label were on the neck about how songs should sound.

 

I'm a huge fan and actually care that her career goes well and she is allowed to do what she wants, but the label could mistreat her or even prevent her from being able to leave or release music if the upcoming project doesn't do well.

 

There were rumours that she went independent last year, did they turn out to be true?

How are you huge fan but don't know that she parted ways with Capitol and signed to Columbia. Don't think label executives expected a song about her health issues to sound tailor made for radio. Again this song is not meant to break streaming records to take the chart talk somewhere else.

is this a bit or did @Pendulum just lie for fun

It was a troll post like the numerous others in the original announcement thread. This user and his obsession with me is doing too much.

beautiful song, wishing her well

it's not something I'm gonna listen to a lot on its own but it'll be a great closer for the album

this was beautiful, so sad to hear about her diagnosis, hope all is well 

Gorgeous song. Wishing her well.

Ugh. I love her so much. Im really rooting for her 

the way she explained what this song would be and its purpose, but yall still insist on screaming "wHeReS dA BoPs" and worried about numbers. Please go be insufferable and insensitive somewhere else

It seems like there is definitely going to be a documentary too. I'm glad she is comfortable talking about her health and doing this all on her terms.

What a beautiful and sad song

 

I wish her the fastest recovery, extremely sad that she has been going through this

 

She has grown so much as an artist, the album Im sure will be great

 

Her last album was sooo good one of the best this decade.

This is beautiful 

waitttt according to pitchfork Alex G is playing guitar on this!! wow i hope she collab with him more 

oh this song is gorgeous

Very Alex G or Mount Eerie

It's seems like she doesn't want to make pop music anymore but she probably has to because of her contract 

dont think this is a lead single, more like album opener

 

get well soon

this is a stunning single, tragic about what she's goimg through

 

hope she finds happiness and is surrounded by her loved ones

He's one of the main collaborators on the album! 

It's so beautiful 

Was touching and could really hear the pain and emotion in the lyrics 

on the initial listen i had was a bit disappointed, but that was because i wasn't expecting this, i wasn't comprehending the lyrics and the sheer simplicity of the song.. but when i read the lyrics while listening for the second time, she had me ugly crying., the song is tragically beautiful with so sad, i wish her the best, hope she gets well soon and fully recovers
