    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🥺❤️🥀

    my name is Rose by the way, and when i heard that song i felt very honoured for some reason haha my name is in a song of his, i really like that, i hope conan gray reads this, continue with what you’re doing!!❤

    What a great interview. I love seeing the process behind-the-scenes like this. Although I AM in love with Alley Rose, I am pretty much obsessed with the whole album. It’s so unique. My favorites are forever with me, fainted love, miss you, and boys and girls. I love when he refers to his albums as little time capsules. That is such a perfect way to explain how this album makes me feel as well.
