i have to say, this (extremely funny) video freshly introduced me to a different perspective on AJR. I've been genuinely obsessed with the band since the release of way less sad, and i have since grown extremely attached to the brothers and pretty much their entire story and discography (excluding born and bred and pretender [steve aoki version, of course]). i relate to their music so much, and theyve legitimately saved my life. just through loving them, i love all of their music, even the shitty or boring songs. im sick and tired of disrespectful 'reviews' of them, because clearly those people lacked the heart to investigate the actual souls behind this music. i appreciate you taking the time to pick apart their group, and actually caring enough to be serious about it and not just shit on them lol. thanks for giving me a cool and honest perspective to add to my musical lens, cool person :) subscribed for sure!!

The Trick is by far the most underrated AJR song to date. It’s so well done, and RESPECT to you for putting it at #1. Fun fact: I actually didn’t like this song at first, but then I went to the OK Orchestra Tour, and they played a mashup of Dear Winter and The Trick, putting the post chorus of The Trick into Dear Winter. It really made my respect for the song go up, and I started to realize the message, and it went from being my least favorite OKO song, to one of my favorite OKO songs, if not, my all-time favorite OKO song.

1:22:00 I've found out over the course of my time listening to it that this song, and especially its music video has quite a bit of different interpretations to it. You say that it's about Jack desperately trying to get to the concert in time, going against the song's message. Someone else in the comments of the music video said the island represents the solitude and exhaustion he feels after the tours. Someone else interpreted the song as being related to COVID, and how AJR is just recently getting back into the grind of touring again. It's incredibly interesting to hear how people interpreted the song and music videos in different ways.

1:23:44 the reason for this, as they have stated before (i just searched far and wide to find it but couldnt 😭), is that jacks voice simply seemed to flow better, and they believed that listeners would connect to Jack's telling of the story more than Ryan's. pretty weird. also, Ryan has just always loved the name Winter for a boy, and so he wants to name his first son Winter. it's not necessarily saying that his very first kid will be a boy (because obviously how would he know), but just that eventually, he wants to have a boy named Winter. hope this helps :)

Gonna be honest I disagreed with pretty much your entire top 5 besides Finale. In fact my top 5 songs were all in the 20s range, being 2085, Inertia, Bang, Way Less Sad, and Karma in no particular order. Finale is just under that. But even though your top 5 was pretty questionable to me (ESPECIALLY The Trick at 1) I gotta say this video was hella impressive. The fact that you really analyzed every song and managed to place them in individual spots is actually super awesome, so thanks for making this. I’m gonna go watch some of your other videos!

Here's a list of songs I think were very wrongly ranked: No Grass Today Netflix Trip (This is literally my favorite song to ever exist. How dare you. It's a song about how you connect your memories to the media you consume. And the song is beautiful. The instrumentation is a masterpiece and the wailing, which I could see being annoying, but I love it. It's melody is perfect and so is the song.) Three-Thirty (The trumpet is so catchy) The Entertainment's Here (This song is a banger and I bob my head to it every time.) Hole in The Bottom of My Brain (This song is so fun and catchy. It's got a good gentle back and forth swing to it) Ok at this point I got tired of editing the comment. So many of these songs are amazing and he claims to be not good.

At the end of your monologue you reveal that he gets the girl by tap dancing with his brothers and I woke my dogs up laughing because there is no way that would’ve worked outside of an AJR song or a shitty Disney Channel sitcom.

1:04:22 strong disagree here. The placement of God is Really Real right before 2085 is horrendously jarring as that song is about how they'll sing to their Dad when hes out of bed and then 2085 opens with "if someone told me I'd die at 40 I wouldn't have spent my life in bed". It's bizarre that they would open with a lyric about dying and getting out of bed when the previous song was about how their Dad is dying and is unable to get out of bed. Like I know Jack isn't capable of writing good lyrics but Jesus the placement of these ones felt especially insensitive.

Like the "Do you want to play with my balls" story for my play, the TNT minecraft parody for Bang! and putting in Karma by Taylor Swift for the Karma by AJR. I don't know why, but I think that putting the Karma by Taylor Swift in the transfer to Karma by AJR was pretty good, as well as the other two I mentioned.
