Anxiety GRINDS my gears

I don’t know if they heard that hit of hers and went, but here are some notorious examples: - people bailed after the Rembrandts played the Friends theme song. - same thing happened to Gotye with “Somebody I Used To Know”. 🤦🏻♂️

Cuz I know the song the intro made me chill a bit but when Doechii enters I always start to feel anxious, which was kinda the point of the song lol. Was very meta

neutral · AI labelView post →Was this supposed to be a rom com, because I felt that there was a serious lack of comedy in Somebody I Used to Know. I do not remember laughing at a single joke that the writers attempted to deliver. The dialogue is very corny and feels forced and unnatural. The story takes unimaginable leaps to progress the plot; as a fellow engaged man, the decisions he makes are laughable. I mean who stalks your ex and spends all night with out to the town days before your wedding, it just made no sense.…
