Lyrics:

I know that it’s over
We saw all the signs
You’re saying I hurt you
But you hug me like it’s 2009
I’m hearing things through the grapevine
But I know the truth
It’s stranger than fiction
I’m still not over you

I tried to tell you I’m a weirdo
No doubt about it I’m a weirdo
Yeah hi it’s me I’m the weirdo
But I’ll never be the deepfake

Walking down Santa Monica
You were there like a daisy
Now I’m writing from Nashville
Has the world gone crazy
You’re packing your suitcase
Set out for the drive
I’m blowing your phone up
Did you make it alive

Far from perfect
But we could’ve gone farther
Far from perfect
But we could’ve gone farther
I’m far from perfect
But we could’ve gone farther
Was it kinda perfect
Was it kinda perfect

No matter how long you disappear, you always come back with an absolute banger. The vocals in this song absolutely HIT

[ZeroZero]

To be fair you did say malk and made hot kool aid, so the signs were there

[mudshrooze]

Remember to share this guys. This is a great artist who deserves it

[Annddrreeww]

Back Then - B Story was the first look into the deep feeling human side of Julian Smith. 10 years later and it’s time travel for real. Art is putting into words what everybody feels but nobody knows how to say. You said the feel, friend.

[teresas]

Somehow, every time he releases a song, even the more comedic ones, I'm just utterly astounded by his vocals even though I was blown away by his vocals last time. It's the surprise that just keeps on surprising.

[mikelesa]

You are one of the coolest dudes since YouTube came out bro. I am proud of you for what you have accomplished in life. No life is perfect but you still managed to bring a lot of people joy and laughter. That in itself defines your vision and selflessness- “I did this for you”. I pray that all goes with your family. Wishing you the best 🤲🌺

Love to see a new video from our boy. Even more excited to hear more from B Story

[SM-lgtw]

he may not say it, but I know he made this for me 💖

[nineel]

I'm so glad you're posting again, you're such a huge part of my late teens. Me and my friends watched everything you posted while we were predrinking before going out. Most of your songs are still in my playlists.

Your collabs with people like Rhett and Link introduced them to us and I still follow them too. Your songs and videos are still quoted in our group, my girlfriend loved all your stuff and now she's my wife we still quote and sing your songs.

I watch your stuff and can only think back to those times. You are an absolute hero and legend, unforgettable and a source of joy.

[ivan_brandt]

Always been a fan of your B story stuff, especially "Back Then" and your more recent "A Million Little Things You Could Live Without". Glad to see (and hear) your new stuff!

[jacksoffalot]

Saw you in Santa Monica behind a camera recording for an interview about Tuna and the ocean haha and recognized your voice and started singing Jelly Fish excitedly to you, Thank you for making my childhood ❤️

[Cosmic_Pickle]

I love B Story so much. I may have listened to Back Then more than any other person alive, it's in my Top Five favorite songs of all time. This one is just as much a banger, Julian. Well done man!

[MattDRobertson]

Man, I respect you so much for the videos/work you’ve done in the last four or five years. It seems like a lot of the weird/nerdy filmmakers from the late 00s-early 10s are still trying to make the same videos the same way, and it just doesn’t resonate. It doesn’t work to act like you’re in your mid to late 20s when you’re actually in late 30s, early 40s. You, on the other hand, have grown up your content as time has gone on, and it’s so refreshing. Thank you!

[omnimous]

Back Then is an amazing video and song, like, AAA top tier. So, I am very happy to see you are adding to that collection.

[antonshudder]

I can't believe your still uploading after 15 years but I'm happy you are even tho I've only been watching for 12 you've brought us many times of joy and happiness and I thank you for that

[seamishmusic]

Wasn’t expecting a new song! It was great chatting with you Julien! Thanks for all the great feedback you gave me for my music ❤

[sarinajack]

This is such an amazing comeback! I've been watching you for YEARS and this is so great! I hope this is a kickstart to a great comeback for you Julian!

[alexisbradshaw]

Bro looks a lot like weird Al now. I'll never stop watching these videos. Thank you Julian Smith for shaping the humor in my life from the time I was a child.

[CoDHopFanBoy]

Love you bro! First time back in YEARS. I’ll be actually jamming this on blast! You brought joy to so many kids back in the day. I always remember as an ORIGINAL YouTuber.

[joshuawatson]

I can’t stop listening to this song. It cuts so deep.❤❤❤
