[Lyrics]
Why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why
Why, why, why
I was off keying cars parked on radium lawns
By suburbian moms
I called a friend, let's meet at ten
Go wherever we want 'cause no one cares that we're gone
This town don't got much to do
You and I haven't got much to lose
So do you wanna rot in your room like we always do?
Talk about how fast we grew
And all the big dreams that we won't pursue
Then get in your car and laugh 'til we both turn blue
'Cause we are the helpless, selfish, one of a kind
Millennium kids, that all wanna die
Walking in the street with no light inside our eyes
We are the worthless, cursed with too much time
We get into trouble and lose our minds
It's something that I've heard a million times in my life
Generation Why
Parents think we're fast asleep
But as soon as we're home we're sneaking out the window
'Cause at this rate of earth decay
Our world's ending at noon
Could we all just move to the moon?
This town don't got much to do
And you and I haven't got much to lose
So do you wanna leave everyone in this place for good?
'Cause we are the helpless, selfish, one of a kind
Millennium kids, that all wanna die
Walking in the street with no light inside our eyes
We are the worthless, cursed with too much time
We get into trouble and lose our minds
It's something that I've heard a million times in my life
Generation Why
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
We're livin' night to night
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Since we're bound to die, oh
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Oh, what's the use in trying?
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
And it's exactly why
We are the helpless, selfish, one of a kind
Millennium kids, that all wanna die
Walking in the street with no light inside our eyes
We are the worthless, cursed with too much time
We get into trouble and lose our minds
It's something that I've heard a million times in my life
Generation why
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why

Here in 2024 and nah....the world hasn't ended.
Yet....
Conan deserves way more recognition than he actually gets
Conan Gray as “Suburban kid losing his mind”
Summer Slough as “Best friend”
Red bike as “bike”
why do y'all copy what is wrote in the description and act just like you're the one who wrote this
l lostxjams no I just find it funny that they wrote that the red bike was playing as the bike, don’t worry wasn’t trying to copy, just highlighting what I found funny 😊
I almost died when I read that in the description 😂😂😂

i used to listen to this song with my sister 5 years ago she died almost 2 years ago now no longer here only lived for 16 years conan’s music reminds me of all the good moments i remember with her even though the guy who killed her is free this song gives me comfort
I’m not even Generation Y and I still relate to this so much. There’s so much disdain for young people it’s honestly getting pretty ridiculous. If you don’t have faith in us and tell us we’re “helpless, selfish” and “get into trouble” you’re not exactly setting us up for success. Adults are always talking about respecting elders but what about respecting the people who will one day be in charge of the world?
Well to be fair the person who wrote thing Conan is not gen y he's gen z.
@@1Rose_ that’s actually true I didn’t realise that before now
_finally a song about this generation_
My exact same reaction
What about "love it if we made it" by the 1975, they talk about how fucked up this world is

Why I'm discovering this song when the world is actually ending..
Ikr!!!!
same
you cant really say that
Yea
I remember first listening to this song when he released it and now it’s become a reality and it’s kinda scary
1:42 the NEWSPAPERR !!!!!! CONAN PREDICTED THE FUTURE
The true emotions of most of the teenagers going through shit portrayed in one song......
this song is literally PREACHING. parents are always like, “oh when i was a kid we would constantly be outside while your generation stay cooped up inside all day” when if we want to go anywhere they have to come with us and know exactly why we want to go. when my mom was a teenager she would never tell her mom anything and would constantly sneak out. but now we’re forced to have life360 and if we get in trouble for sneaking out they yell at us as if they didn’t do the exact same thing.
Also just thought what are we gonna tell our kids that we did as a kid. “Oh we lived through a pandemic and had to be quarantined for two months” “what did you do grandma” “oh i sat on my phone, slept, looked at memes, pretended I was making a KRplus more times then I could count, blasted copy cat my melanie Martinez, questioned my existence, watched every KRplus video ever twice, and watched a lot of disney+
Yes. Some even stalk us on social media which is the whole new level of creep. I think we should defend out rights for cyber private space. I never want my parents to see my twitter or ig and even remember teachers at school using information they saw on our social media against us. Wtf is their problem?
x2
@@hiracoverband heyyyy, thats true
I can't explain how true this is. If my parents are seeing this, please stop and let me live MY life. It's not yours. Stop. I need to live my own life with GUIDANCE, not someone living my life for me. I get it, you had a rough childhood, but that doesn't mean that you can deprive me of one. You put me in martial arts to learn how to protect myself. You give me all these things to prevent me from getting kidnapped and harassed. But what's the point of these things if I can't use them? Don't spend money in pepper spray if I'm not allowed to go places where I might need to in the smallest fraction of a chance, use this wasted money on my education. Use it for yourself. Just let me live, please.
i think this is actual video proof of twitter cone
'Generation Why' conan is a hybrid of twitter conan and youtube conan
Accurate?
People born between the millennials and gen z can relate more to this because they share the both generation's traits.
Who else is on a Conan binge ?
meee :3
he's literally the most underrated artist out there rn
also this song gives me such lorde vibes
rIGHT
Yeah sounds like it could be a Lorde song
it is such Love Club vibes imo !!
So true!!!!

When the whole song said "ok boomer" i felt that
rIGHT?
I will be ur 1k like

@Renata M ye lmao, the video portrays him as spoiled as shit.
服装とか文字とかMVエモすぎん！！
Came back after being obsessed like 3-4 years ago and gosh the memories
he's lying beat-up in the driveway. he sits up, looks around. there's nothing worth getting up for.
he lies back down.
oof
YESSS THIS FEELING RIGHT HERE💛💛🙌💖

Yesyesyes I love this
Conan acting angry is something I thought I'd never see (he's still adorable tho)
Go to his twitter

"At this rate of earth decay our worlds ending at noon.. can we all just move to the moon?"
Is my favorite line from this song. It's so beautiful and relatable.
My generation is going to be known for cursing too much, wanting to die, and memes and vines.
And the best part is that we are proud of it
Deadass
BRUHH I JUST REALIZED I RESPONDED WITH A CURSE WORD AND DIDNT EVEN TRY 💀💀

Conan's all songs become my fav ones , listening to them only once.
Love u man ❤️
“we are the helpless, selfish, one of a kind millennium kids that all want to die, walking in the street with no light inside of our eyes” this got me
Literally this is a song that is describing every teenager in this generation and our entire society
Nah this doesn't relate to Asian kids whatsoever 😂
@@sophia-tj1ck, I'm an Asian kid, it relates to me.
@@anotherlegend3899 okay so there maybe some exceptions😂. It's just that most asian teens in my country don't have that much freedom and are expected to get straight A's . I'm an Asian myself
@@sophia-tj1ck, Ah that explains why. While I am Asian, I don't originate from any Asian countries, I live in America.
Yea but us that grew up in the hood/ghetto are a lot worse than people that grew up in normal areas lmao
"Since we're bound to die"
The only truth that we all knew.
That and humans suck.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS IVE HEARD
The anthem of our generation? I think so.
Yes sis
girl stop
cailee *everyone please stand for the pledge of allegiance*
Hell yeah 😍❤
YES
isnt it scary how this song
is so accurate for all of us? especially gen z and millenial babies. even though theres a big age gap we all relate to this somehow. its like we dont have any useful purpose in life and the only fucking thought there is to have is “wow i feel like i wanna die” and its scary how dying is just so normalized nowadays especially for the youth today. its like we are trapped in a shitty endless cycle until we age and we still have no idea what are we doing with our lives but hey... there is still that one thought that sticks out... like how you just wanna die right?
Yeah, i thought the same and it sucks that adults dont take us seriously
By the way i'm 15
It all gets better guys. I know everything is sad and carrying on seems impossible sometimes. But I guarantee you, you just gotta make it through this time in life and one day, you realize a bit of who you are. And then it's exciting to know that you get to mold the rest of yourself from that point on. Stay strong and God bless xx.
Yeah I know. I have depression and I'm so young. I can't count the amount of times I've wanted to fall asleep and never wake up again because I thought everyone would be better off without me
yuh yeet calm down yuh yeet
abi That really IS scary....
Conan you are so brilliant.
"scientists predict the earth will end by 2020" Conan predicted the future with a newspaper 👀
He looks so cute even when he’s acting mad wtf
Saxx check ur likes lol
900TH LIKER BABYYYYY
Kkk i agree with you
Saxx where is day f:"';in love icon!!!
Ikr he look cute
this song so accurately captures the frustration, monotony, and insanity of being stuck in a small, slow moving town as a teenager. i relate to this so much, what an amazing song.
edit: 3 years later and i’m finally moving on
It's funny tho that I feel the same and I'm from a big city... It doesnt matter how much people surround you we still feel lonely and lost.
TRUTH!! this is also describe my teenagers with the other kids timeline at 7 years ago lol, miss the old days
Even though I live in a boring town and boring country I could relate
same i live in fucking arkansas

I’m 4 years late but I feel like this song matches the era between 1990-2005 omg this amazing tho❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
i cannot be the only one who dissociates during this song and it feels like i’m in a teenage movie about depression or rebellious kids
Started to stan conan! So glad
Every time Conan's hair bounces take a full gulp of water, we gotta stay hydrated kids
lmaooo
Im gonna get water poisoning if i drink that much water
0:42 seconds into the video and I've already finished a bottle
try it with his "Crush Culture" ur gonna be 94% water
This idea but with Idle Town
Anyone else noticed the newspaper saying “the world on the verge of ww3”
Put it on slow mo and go to 1:32
The earth dying in 2020 is also really scary
Conan just predicted the future
OMG yeah he really predicted the future lol
INDEED
Thank god there is someone who writes our words in our heart and can hear them...

i love him more :(
*dramatic 180 turn*
Just discovered Conan and already in love
Conan Gray is a GENIUS ♡
Okay this will be on replay for the next 10 years
yup exactly
This video feels very personal for Conan. We never hear about his dad and the fact that there is only a father figure complaining about him shows that Conan probably has a negative experience with his father. I loved this song so much Conan is the kind of artists the world needs, pure and meaningful
conan once did a video called "draw my life" or something in which he talked about his dad :) i think its the one video he got "famous" with
Accurate 👍
I think it might represent the older generation pressuring us to all be one way, when were trying to "sneak out the window" and escape the mold of society. cause why me forced to be who were not when we're bound to die?
Can we just talk abt the fact that the prediction of "the earth will die by 2020" isnt far off?
Video comes out in 2018: Newpaper says "world ends in 2020"
Yeah Conan, it kinda did.
It sounds very ocean-y don't you think? Imagine having your head under the waters and listening to this
blub blub blub-
i didn't really think about it til i saw your comment

oh shoot, that's what it is; the feeling. Thanks for saying it lolll

ITS SHAKING ME UP BRo
Grace saame
its not true its true only for edgy kids who spend too much time one the internet and listen to edgy music and are obsessed with aesthetics
so only "edgy" people kill themselves...yeah okay.
*No Conan’s were hurt during the film of this video*
Benjamin Mella You don’t need an apostrophe between Conan and the s. Conans means there are multiple Conans and Conan’s means it owns something.
So you’re saying Conan owns were.
*filming
Wait what I thought its just film
Chaotic Chaotic It’s filming. No Conans were hurt during the filming of this video. Film is just a noun, so saying during the film of this video is kind of redundant as film and video are kind of the same. So, you could leave either of the two out but the popular saying in general is “during the filming of this video”.
He is probably from abroad so just leave him... everyone understood what did he mean
Conan described us perfectly❤
this is one of my fave songs :(
lyrics-wise and music in general is so good i love this sm >
Your voice is what I imagine angels sound like 😭😭
YES OMG
