Why are all of their songs extremely relatable

[ashkay]

As someone who is on the aromantic spectrum the lyric "If I don't want anyone, then why do I feel so alone?" Truly speaks to me especially the fact that this song is simply about the idea of someone. I always wish for someone but it's not real it's an idea. Even stranger my aromate moved to California around the time of this release so "What time is it California?" really hits home. It's a beautiful music video Robbie and another hit song.

Edit: Thank you all for 6.6k likes. I didn't think that many people would see and id be the top comment on my favorite song. Thanks for all the aro love!!

[PierceToons]

whenever i’m sad i read Robbie’s comment section and feel better

[spikeygray]

the mullet just keeps evolving with every music video

“ I think I’m in love with the idea of her”
Robbie, boy you wanna make people cry ?

[LTMotions]

My interpretation of this video is that the blue nosebleed basically represents mental health struggles, personal struggles, etc. basically any kind of negativity in that person's life. Robbie is dealing his own issues, while his partner is there to help him through them and help him grow as a person and get better. However, as we see at the end, she is also dealing with her own problems that she doesn't want to talk to him about, for fear of damaging things. Basically how us introverts are great at helping others but we don't like to reach out for help.

idk if it's intented as specifically an aro song but either way my aromantic heart is fucking bursting rn

[livingtonly]

Robbie is so chill I could literally hangout with him forever. His voice is so comforting <3

[MondSchnecken]

I can't thank Robbie enough for his music, it's such a comfort to me that I feel guilty for being able to listen to it for free. Sometimes it brings hurtful memories but it helps me overcome them in a healthy way and let everything go. He changed so many lives and mine is one of them. I wish I could do something more but for now I just wanna say, , Thank you

they're honestly out here living in an indie film ~

[Mr.WhyDoIDoThis]

Robbie is such a great person and singer.... We should all thank him for his music :)

"if I dont want anyone why do I feel so alone" - those lines just drove a wedge in my heart and I resonate with them so much. I dont want to have a relationship out of my own insecurities and mistrust in people and yet I still yearn for something, anything really to make me feel less alone

[okkotsuyuuta]

I love this song. I can't wait to memorize the lyrics and sing it to my cat

[mantamoony]

I'm 100% crying out of weird nostalgic and happy feelings and only Cavetown could make me feel these amazing feelings

[kotomi]

at the beginning he looks at her a lot, and has that nosebleed...then towards the end she starts looking at him a lot, and then her nose starts to bleed. perhaps an allegory for falling in love?

[grace-fxcf]

as someone who loves cavetown and has a partner who loves cavetown, this song is perfect for us

[gloestickk]

"If I don't want anyone, then why do I feel so alone?"
Damn that hit me in the greyromantic hard

[louannebvb]
