    the high ahh-ohhh ad-lip is my favourite thing in the whole song, once i noticed it i couldn‘t unhear it and now i listen to the song differently.

    I was a teen in the 1980s. Totally loved the music. Best musical days of my life. And now a grandma, and along comes Conan and it sounds like every song is the SOUNDTRACK of my younger days. Masterful storyteller, amazing vocal range, sings all the FEELS! He's FUN, and FUNNY, and joyful! Incredible choreography on all his music videos. Conan has IT all musically! He even educates us on the music process. I'll be the old -young at heart girl who sees you on tour 10/5/24! Woo hoo!!! Keep making music!

    i don’t think i initially ever even noticed that one ad lib that’s a super high note, my gosh, it’s fucking stunning. i want to cry. conan is just one of those artists that i feel so deeply for and resonate with, that it sometimes just drives me to tears. i’ve been a fan since his youtube days, and this is so bittersweet to see lil cone get his heart broken but make this masterpiece of a song out of it🥺❤️🥀
