Who came after 6-5 years remembering suddenly all the lyrics? Just me?
MY HAPPY LITTLE PILLL......
This was my first Troye song. And I’ve been addicted ever since.
saME
So, heres my actual story:
*watching Tyler Oakley video*
Me: *looks at boyfriend tag in recommendations*
Me: ooooo who's this, he's cute, and he's gay
Me: *clicks*
me: *gets hooked*
Me: *watches hours of troye*
Me: *learns that troye has music*
Me: *gets hooked on music*
Me: *buys albums and eps*
Me: *fangirls*
Me: *gets tickets to concert*
Yep
+Hermione Luna Morgenstern “daughter of Nyx” Herondale Prior OMG same. He looked so hot in the thumbnail and I was like cute boy making music? Must watch!
+Hermione Luna Morgenstern “daughter of Nyx” Herondale Prior
Same. I love superfruit's cover of it too, it is so awesome. But Troye's version is always number 1 :)
Anybody else randomly just listening to this during Quarantine?
My mum loves this song, and now she calls Troye "the drug song guy"
My mom sings with me this song, even she doesn't know the actual lyrics
+imcrazysosueme My Mom Was Like ALL HELL NO It's A Song About Drugs And Im just Like NO IT'S NOT!
So glad Troye was signed by a legit music production company, unlike most other CZcamsrs who are just being used.
OH MY GOD CONAN LOL I SUBSCRIBED A LONG TIME AGO AND PLZ DO A DRAW MY LIFE
unlocked a bunch of middle school memories omfg
It’s 2014 my sweet little pill just dropped, troye and Tyler are your ship couple, you’re not sure about your sexuality, you think you’re depressed but life only went down hill from there. Now it’s 2019 and you realized life was easy back then
The song is talking about how antidepressants make him happy. Troye said he made the song for a close friend of his. Stfu about Connor you don't know if it is him or not so stop saying it like it's a fact.
Let me dumb my comment down so you guys can understand. I don't think it would be a bad thing if it was Connor. But you need to stop saying that it is Connor like it's a fact because you don't know who the song is about.
Matthew K I didn't know you existed until like five seconds ago since my notifications only tell me important things right away I guess that's why it took so long to realize that you responded to my comment. I don't care what you say so stop replying to my comment. Also don't talk about my tits you pervert
Staci, he said he wrote it on a plane, not about anyone in the plane.
I still don't think it's about Connor though, would Troye really write an entire song about close topic to friend? or if Connor would be okay with it? I don't think Troye and Connor are in that type of relationship where they would do that type of thing to be honest
My son died of a drug overdose on December, and the first time I heard this I thought of him... it's like a window into into his life and his addiction.
Wow. I'm sorry for your loss. Your comment really touched me. Sending love and prayer your way. ☺️💕
I hope these memories are positive, stay strong and remember the good things
this is such a bop and a throwback to the Tumblr blogging and weheartit days
Wow...I have no idea how to explain it. But the nostalgia. The melancholic, anxious, euphoric, optimistic time in my late teens and early 20s that this reminds me of. Like, that vague sense of precarity but believing that everything will somehow work out eventually. Like, I'm becoming aware of myself in ways I've never really thought about before. Coming to terms with my sexuality. Learning to be okay with myself (this project is still ongoing).
I dunno. Am I making sense?
I know a lot of people don't like this song but coming from someone who suffered from depression, the lyrics make a lot of sense - trying anything or doing anything to feel something, because many depressed people feel numb more than they feel sad. Love this song and love the video too. Why hate on the video when other famous celebrities come out with the shittest and most random videos.
lets have a depressing hug together ../numb and sad without a reason, no ups/
dongbangfan shinkipeia it does get better. It really helps me to pick out one good thing in each day, even if it's as mundane as good coffee. X
aww thank you. yeap im trying that too and it gets better when i start to look at the world positively but sometimes you just break down
dongbangfan shinkipeia I know, I don't really think that will ever go away tbh but I'm learning to cope (ish). Sometimes you just need to cry it out haha. It just makes me sad that people are hating on troye. This is a great song and people shouldn't be commenting if they hate it and troye so much tbh. CZcamsrs saved my life and im very thankful for that.
I found out it's the medicine that makes you feel numb. At least newer antidepressants are getting better at not making you feel meh at literally everything.
I swear if he changes like most stars Ima be pissed.....
islazelea i know but like, Justin for example, he used to be a cute singer.....now hes like a hot badboy
angelina nguyen justin is so buff now tho. also, hes really matured in terms of his personality as well, and he apologised for all the shit he did
I have grown with Troye and now I’m eighteen and I’m crying 😭😭😭. Why time passes so fast?
It only goes faster and faster man… appreciate who and what you may have and not what you don’t.
Oh honey, wait till you get to my age (57). I still am very young with my music and keeping up with new music. The bones are a bit weary now.
(About the "why is all gay men so hot?"-kinda question:..)
It's pretty simple really, *girls want what they can't have* :')
Lmao, that's so true. Diamonds, Hot guys, Love... The list goes on :D
Mitrh You have got it all wrong lol. The real question should be: Why are a lot of straight men so hot? Gay men NEED what they can't have D:
FIRST THIS, NOW #WILD. IM SO EXCITED
*UPDATE* NOW BLUE NEIGHBOURHOOD OH MY GOD TROYE
i was a teenager when this dropped. troye and halsey literally ruled tumblr and twitter during this time! also this was such a product of its time
this song had me in a chokehold when i was 14 😩 the memories this song bring back is so nostalgic 🥲
i'm in love with his lips , someone else here?
Andrea Bailon isnt it better if he's gay? then no girl will be with him xD
ville rautiola that moment when your first sentence means the same thing as what i said .-. but why would they be sad? its not like we have a chance to be with him. but considering he is gay, it means that even if we don't get him, no other girl would xD
ville rautiola im a grammar nazi myself and did not make any mistake. nobody uses phrases like yours, and you know why? its because it is the english you learn from books, not from actual conversations. im telling you, nobody talks like that. + you didnt correct anything - you just rephrased my sentence.
Everyone says it is for his friend and that it's about anti- depressants. I know that he said that but i think it is some deeper than just anti- depressants. I think troye isn't that kind of person that would just make a song directly about anti- depressants. I think he thinks deeper than to make it just so obvious. For me it is about teens trying to "buy happy from shopping cards" See, troye lives in a rich apartment in the video, but he's bored as you can see he lies back after a while of channelsurfing. Another guy tries to enjoy sports but it is boring alone. Then this two teens kissing but after that they just watch traffic from a bridge. And they're bored as the others. The statement: none of these things/ actions make us happy. Happiness can't be bought. It is a feeling. You ARE happy or you aren't. The owl, symbol of wisdom, watches the different scenes and asks: do you know what it takes to be happy? Troye lists the things we can buy: cocaine, tight skin, bodyguards. This is the "happy" list of today's world. So the escape is in a pill. It takes you away and numbs your skin. This lifestyle doesn't make anyone happy. If you need a pill to be happy... ask yourself what you need to be truly happy.
I absolutely LOVE your interpretation of the song! But Troye did say he wrote this for a friend (Connor Franta) who was going through depression but I guess he did write it for everyone else too. :)
When this song came out I was at the worst stage of my life. I was so depressed and no one ever found out as I felt I couldn't talk to anyone about it,not even my parents. I used to listen to this song all day and cry myself to sleep most of the nights..
It's such a weird coming back and listening to it
Glad things worked out for the best
For anyone out there who might be going through rough times rn..I promise it gets better. Please don't try and work things out on your .it's really difficult. If things are down bad feel free to talk to anyone you can be yourself with(even if it's just a friend)
Have faith and ALWAYS keep your head up!
Sivan said of the song, "It's about loneliness and the different ways that people cope with the things that are going on in their lives."[1] He also stated: "I wrote this song during a bit of a rough time for someone super close to me, and for myself, and it still means as much to me as the day I wrote it."
Me while listening to this song:
*Punches wall*
MY HAPPY LITTLE PILL
*kicks chair*
TAKE ME AWAY
*Throws table*
DRY MY EYES
*Breaks window with head*
BRING COLOR TO MY SKIES
*Passes out*
that would've nummed ur skin alright when he says buying happy from trolleys he really means in a hospital bed with wheels trying to get medical helpI hope breaking those things doesn't get u in TROYEBLE LHIAHSDAKJSNAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA *nukes computer* *throws table* *kicks chair* *breaks window with head* *passes out*
"nothing but time to kill" he was above his time writing this for a worldwide quarantine.
This song is sooo good, im stuck on it. Anyways, (G) i-dle's Minnie said this is her fav song of urs. She said if she has a chance with who to do a collab, her choice is always be youuuu
TROYE MY BOY! I LOVE IT!
is it weird I cried a lil? it's not generic pop shit... it has true feelings to it and I just... sorta felt everything ;_; dammit maan
i just fell in love with this song thanks to minnie from g idle, her cover is amazing
happy 7 years of TRXYE ! so proud of how far he’s come, been a fan since his youtube days
This feels so much older than it really is. So proud of him for accomplishing so much in such little time!
Ikr.I feel like it’s coz he looks way different then he is now.His hair is way curly than before and he’s bleached it too.You can tell he’s grown up by his facial features.
Pretty Little Liars yeah, but even at this time he was full of TALENT. This guy is amazing 😱😖🥰
No I haven't played this song on repeat for literally the past hour straight. What are you talking about? PPPPSSSSSHHHHHH
same.............. I'll just put it on repeat when I'm doing homework.
So nostalgic watching this video 6 years later.
Struggling to comprehend this song is already 8 years old. Feels like just yesterday I was sharing it with my best friend when it was recently released. We're still best friends to this day, so that just proves that if you can share great music with someone, you'll remain tight for a very long time.
my sweet little phil
take dan away
dry his eyes
bring colour to his skies
my sweet little phil
Can we please talk about how perfect this song is? I mean Troye’s voice, the lyrics, sounds and everything
Well, seriously whenever he sings "sweet little pill" my heart skips a beat. I don't know but this song is damn good even now! Troye squad! 💯🔥
HEDWIG!
erika ward seems like they do which makes them more awesome everything is awesome everything is cool when ur part of the team this for u brayn plus we love u too on yesterday vlog
Coming back to Troye Sivan after my bestfriend rejected me. It hurts actually and right now, Troye Sivan is one of the persons who help me overcome this
OH MY GOD I REMEMBER THE DAY THIS CAME OUT WOW
+Allisson Tellez AHHHH SAME THO 😂 IM OVER HERE LIKE 'MY BROTHEREN'
All the lyrics are just engraved into my brain- and not even memory loss can make me forget any of his songs
I came back, troye. This song brings back memories. I was struggling with depression. I am happier now. I am proud to be your fan. I love you, Troye.
this is good shit. great job, Troye.
It's a fair song, but the popularity of it is artificially inflated due to all his squealing 13 yo fan girl base. I wager it would not be getting the attention it is, if it was released anonymously.
firstly im not a girl :D and secondly im not even a fan of troye sivan, I know who he is so don't compare me to them please thanks :) (btw did you see me post anywhere here that i liked him?)
GO TO JAIL BECAUSE YOU ARE KILLING IT.
SMASHED IT DUDE! THIS SONG IS DOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Troye, you are incredible.
I could listen to him for hours ...
Brazilians love you'🇧🇷♥
Proud to say troye was part of my teenage years and now adult years WE STAN 🥺✊🏻🥰😔
2014-2015 probably my darkest years, been struggling with so many things, losing people, being forgotten, problem, love, broken heart. Still remember I listen to this song almost every days, I can’t listen it anymore idk it hurts me whenever I listen to the songs during that years, but here I am. I guess my past still haunt me
Divo Galindra omg I feel this I was just thinking about this song and I can never listen to it cuz I was in a really dark place and it just brings me back, crazy huh🤔
It reminds me of my sad days as well. It still hurts a lot everytime I listen to this song.
everyones saying this song reminds them of sad times and im just over here like the trash i am like:
my happy little phil take dan away
Takes me back to 9th grade blasting this song in my headphones in the cafeteria 🥲 I’ve literally spent my whole teenage years listening to him. So so proud of Troye and how far he has come 💜
My fav Troye song. Dont need pill when I feel bad. I just listen this song. Thanks doctor Sivan.
What people don't realize is he's not talking about drugs. By "happy little pill" he's speaking about anti depressants. Yes he is gay and that's completely fine. Nobody has the right to critasize that. He is an amazing, funny, outgoing person. He's only human ok? He's not some kind of sick alien creature. He's a PERSON with feelings, thoughts, just like any normal person. Why should he be treated any different? It's bullshit. All these "homophobic" asshats just hating. Like if you have the time to write a hate comment, you have the time to watch his CZcams and learn his story from start to finish. I love troye. Not for what he looks like. For who he is.
I'm friends with a gay couple (Peter and Kevin) and if their voices were different, you'd have no idea they were gay.
This is a song for a person that was going through depression and Troye made a song about anti depressants for them... I just cocaine and the other stuff make others happy?
troye reminds me of a male lana/lorde if you know what i mean, loved this
LANA DEL REY YASA!!! When I listen to all her released and unreleased songs it kinda make me think of troye.. IM A TRUE FAN OF HERS
probably one of the few youtubers who were serious about music and made it into a successful career, man this is such a throwback. so proud.
This is the sweetest song
Reminds me of distant fading memories
And blurred city lights
The smudged sound of rain
Blue eyes, Beating hearts,
buying cats from shopping carts,
nothing but space to fill,
filming with Dan Howell,
Pale skin, hair is dark,
Talking with that lion heart,
No shame, so much will,
*MY HAPPY LITTLE PHIL*
I remember this song came out when i was 13 and it was my favorite. Troye had just started his career in music. Last summer I saw him perform at a festival in Finland. FINLAND!! He's come so far!! Very proud of him💙
And here I am listening to this song in 2023 ...just cannot forget this lyrics.🎶
Same....I've grown since the song came out and thought I would never be in the situation to relate to the lyrics but now I understand them fully.. It's sad and great at the same time
happy little phil, take dan away.
+RandomGurl 812 no their ship name isn't Dil XD well it is but people say Phan. Dil is the name they gave their sim
They should have used this in The Fault in our stars.
partypanda143x if you are replying to me, then calm the fuck down, i was just saying that the basis of this, depression, relates to the fault in our stars, and cancer. gosh darn, can a damn comment section be not pissed for once.
ITS BEENT 7 YEARS!
This just randomly popped in my head 6 years later.. insane
2014 was such a great year. I had fun. This year was shit. This song reminds me of those great days. i actually had friends.
a Bear um you do know that 2014 was the year that Ebola broke out in Lagos right? And I LIVE in Lagos. I literally had to go to America for the first time and stay there for months to avoid catching it.
But still. I discovered CZcams and Dan and Phil and Anime so I guess it WAS a great year.
Chinenyezu Ihetu That sounds horrible. I'm sorry that happened to you. But it didn't affect my personal happines that much which sounds cruel. Of course I was worried about all people with ebola and everything about it, but it didn't ruin my year. 2014 was one of the greatest year in my life so far. I was actually happy and found future exciting. Now future seems just scary.
Back in here for 7 years of trxye anniversary
I hope Troye is as happy in his private life as he makes me listening to his music, Love him and his music, what an incredible talent.
some people say that his music is calming, like that's how I listen to most (every) song:
MY HAPPY LITTLEE PIIIILL *melts while falling in the floor* TAKE ME AWAAAAAAAAY *lies in the floor*
KISS ME ON THE MOUTH AND SEND ME FREE *masive fangirl attack*
YOU'RE DRIVING ME WIIILD, WIILD *jumps and dance in the Sivan style*
Everyone in the CZcams community feels like proud brothers/sisters/parents/friends
YES TROYE
This song brings so many memories to me. I can picture myself on a bus to the city and seeing the landscapes, really feeling the energy of the song was taking over the my life for those 3 minutes and 47 seconds.
Almost September 2020, and I haven't heard the song in a few years. Still know all the lyrics🤙
i was 7 when this came out, five years later im 13 and this is my favorite song
I remember when this first dropped though I liked the song I honestly didn't take his music ambitions seriously. It was only when Wild EP dropped then I realised that he wasn't just another youtuber that makes music. I'm so proud of him
You guys it's 2022!
Can you believe it's been 8 years since this dropped?
Edit: Why do i feel like crying for no reason tho lol
Blue eyes, beating hearts,
Buying hamsters from shopping carts,
Nothing but space to fill,
My Happy Little Phil,
Take Dan Away.
WHY!?!?! NO LEAVE THIS COMMENT SECTION! WE DO NOT SPEACK OF HAMSTERS WITH DAN AND PHIL IN THE SAME SENTENCE.
Can you believe this song is nearly 9 years old? The first time I heard this young man sing I knew then we were in for something special. Wow was that an understatement.
If his music was a religion, I would go to church everyday.
happy 8 years since the release of this masterpiece! i'm always proud of you, troye, and of everything you've achieved so far as a person, artist and actor. love you endlessly
do you ever see something and think "this person has a very specific aesthetic"?
He's so young here, omg 😍🧡
I remember my tumblr days when he posted sneak peaks about this :( good old times
My Happy Little Poo, Flush it away~~ in all seriousness i love this song and i am so proud of troye. he will continue making incredible music and get bigger and bigger in this industry :) whoever reads this you are beautiful and i hope you have a marvelous day!
aww that was really nice of you to say!! troye is love, troye is life :) you earned a new sub
PROUD X 1000000000000000
AGREED!
I love u zoe
Haha he was not kidding
II AM TOOOO❤
Hey Zoe!😊
