he can't keep getting away with writing such incredible songs

Listening to this while celebrating 30 months sober today from severe drug and alcohol addiction for 14 years. I’m 32. My runner, my man.

His voice has a new confidence, very dope.

he knows just how to hit my G-spot

the scream is so good

my brother produced this video! i’m so proud of him 🤩 also Alex out here delivering a cute summery bop as always

i love how everyone is calm but the drummer’s like ⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️

alex in his christian rock era

The G Man has blessed us once again.

I've been listening to music intently for 50 years, and this just might be one of the best 'pop' songs I've heard. And perhaps the best film clip. My 15-year-old brought me this song tonight. "Dad you have to listen to this!" Have had it on repeat for an hour. Brilliant!

something darker always lurks beneath even the most catchy Alex G songs

After listening to so many emotional songs from Alex, there's something so heartwarming and genuine to see him smile while singing such a beautiful tune~ it feels like comfort from a close friend :)

this song sounds like saturday morning, like around 10:00am

HOW F'N GOOD IS THIS SONG! This song is genius. It leaves you wanting more. You have no choice but to hit replay again and again!

cried immediately. most beautiful song ever. and this album is going to be legendary. thank you Alex and Family!

The bass player is such a vibe

idk why but theres a satisfying sizzle and grit when he sings the "rolled up magazine" part. His voice has a charm noone else can touch.

Lyrics: I like people who I can open up to Who don't judge for what I say, but judge me for what I do And when I think of people I look up to My runner, my runner, my man My runner, my runner, my man I laugh when you say the wrong thing Mouthing off to everybody else but me They hit you with the rolled up magazine My runner, my runner, my man My runner, my runner, my man (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand) (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand) What's a couple grand rolled up in your pocket? I won't tell nobody, baby you don't tell nobody Yes, I have done a couple bad things (Yes) I have done a couple bad things Yes, I have done a couple bad things Yes, I have done a couple *BAAAD THANGS!* (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand) (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand) (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand) (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand) (Loaded up, know your trigger like the back of my hand)

the close up smile while he sings is soo funny hahaha love it

Alex g is seriously the best artist of this generation, his music is so versatile making it accessible for anyone to enjoy. Alex g constantly changes his style in music and always does it successfully. Thank you for the lovely music which has pushed me through challenging times.

I haven't heard such beautiful song in a long time.

I knew he had something cooking when he began to scream, love the way he plays with the gap between radio friendly and weird :)

him showing off the little tooth gem is killing me

this is one of my favorite songs in the universe

This song and Blessing on the same album is gonna be insane

I was really bummed about my breakup and listened to Alex G to feel all the sadness, now listening to this I feel like I’ve adopted a new mindset, learning to accept it’s over and doing things that meet my own needs, this song is really important and transitional for me

0:55 can we just appreciate how amazing alex's smile is though

I love how everyone looks so clean in this video. Like straight out of the shower. Everyone's got a fresh haircut also! I mean, good job guys

My words cannot describe how much I love this song

Cannot WAIT for this album. Everything the G touches turns to gold.

Molly stare at the camera is so hilarious

Alex G has been my hero since 2013

Love how the Runner and Blessing vids feel like y’all are roleplaying as different genres / different styles. ❤️

amazing as usual, this guy never misses

molly on the keys :,) love it

Introducing the new UNIQLO x Alex G Collection

MY RUNNER MY RUNNER MY MAN 🗣🗣🔥🔥💯💯🙏🙏

Gotta love that smile at 00:54 and the way the guitarist looks at Alex afterwards

Hard to fathom these wholesome chaps are the same ones as the grungy shades on the Blessing vid

the wardrobe for this video is so good omfg

OMG!!! this made my day ^_^ your music feels like a warm hug :)

The G man never misses

This song is delectable

my goat

Gonna cry to this in prison tonight under my blanket

the lyrics are so moving. just what I needed to hear right now. thanks for writing such honest and loving songs.

I can never get enough of this song!!!

this screams summer, thank you alex!

this is absolutely one of the greatest things i have ever heard ever

I'm glad he is comfortable doing weird noises again

It is so hard to look this happy when singing It is also difficult to look that unhappy playing keyboards. Thank you both

damn i just want to say that his voice is sounding really really good. i can tell he’s been working on improving it over the years. like it sounds really really good now

I had a really bad night alex, thank you for giving this gift, I'm now hopeful i can get thru my work day now. you help more than you know

0:58 he has a tooth gem lol

OMG THIS SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL😭

Lyics: Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a light You were there like a slow torch burning I was a key that could use a little turning So tired that I couldn't even sleep So many secrets I couldn't keep Promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I couldn't keep It seems no one can help me now I'm in too deep There's no way out This time I have really led myself astray Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there Can you help me remember how to smile? Make it somehow all seem worthwhile How on earth did I get so jaded? Life's mystery seems so faded I can go where no one else can go I know what no one else knows Here I am just drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train Everything seems cut and dry Day and night, earth and sky Somehow I just don't believe it Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughin' at the rain A little out of touch, little insane It's just easier than dealing with the pain Runaway train never goin' back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there Runaway train never comin' back Runaway train tearin' up the track Runaway train burnin' in my veins Runaway but it always seems the same

Before it becomes fashionable, I'll let you know right away that I'm a fan of Alex g runner

canNOT wait to hear this live

I love the look the guitarist and Alex G. give each other at 0:30

I have never heard of you, and no idea why this was recommended to me. That being said, I’m so goddamn glad I clicked. I’ve already followed you on Spotify, this is great!

this song just gets better the more I listen to it

“They hit you with a rolled up magazine” 😀 🤔 🎶

When they look at each other

this song is so addicting i think it might be my most listened ever atp

Feel like I’ve grown up with this kids music since 2015/2016. Im 25 now and he’s gonna be 30 next year. Damn we are all really growing up. 😯 another great piece of art. 😢

My mans and the bands ready for Sunday service ! 🙌

I love the energy the drummers gives every performance

this just made my entire week i am filled with so much joy right now

how did alex know i was going through a depressive episode?

Everyone say thank you Alex!!!

feels like my heart already heard this song somewhere before. really love it lots

This is shaping up to be the best album yet

this inspired me to trust who i am again for the first time in a very long time. thank you dude.

Dude I just finished the semester this a rly nice treattt

This is a great Uniqlo ad

I am spiritually connected to this song

I love this! Your music makes my life so much better!

This song and music video is beautiful but that close-up shot of Alex at 0:55 with his grin always makes me crack up. 😂

Your music is like a star that doesn’t need to shine to be beautiful.

love this nigga

I swear this man’s music makes me feel emotions I didn’t even know existed

"I like people who I can open up to Who don't judge for what I say, but judge me for what I do" - This is my entire life. The amount of people shielding themselves from the reality of their own actions by judging how others communicate instead of what they're actually doing is staggering and just really, really sad :(

My God, this song is so phenomenally good.

This one really hits my Alex G spot.

“Runaway Train” by Soul Asylum: sure alex g, you can copy my homework but just make sure you change it so the teacher won’t notice. alex g:

I’m 73 years old and I just came across this. I love Alec G. I got here from listening to Tom Petty.

I’m so happy to see the same band members 🥲. I love them all so much

My man is dropping a lot of songs lately, nice!

Yes indeed! More Alex Geezy

papa G, blessed father to us all

PLEASE come to Paris again! I miss how easy it was to see you guys in Philly.

can't be a coincidence that this sounds similar to Runaway Train by Soul Asylum. Runner, Runaway Train, similar melodies, gotta be a deliberate interpolation. I say that in a good way though, this is fucking amazing.

Wife listening in: "is that Runaway Train?"

Legend says Alex G will never come to Italy and play live. This is why me and my friends will go to whatever other European Country to see him, and so will do this summer. Every time, every album these guys feel like fresh water for some long lost thirst for music. New songs grow on you like they've always been there, and we gain back a childish faith that was lost somewhere along the trip to real life. Please never stop doing your thing

real (its so hard to produce a smile these days)

yes i am having an alex g summer

There’s so few Alex G songs I latch onto immediately like I did with this one. Usually because most songs have a weird element to it that puts me off, but I *eventually* come around to in time. I like the weirdness though, the tame ones aren’t necessarily my favorites, it’s just nice to have some I’d be willing to play in front of friends yknow

1:31 - 1:48 love the way he channels Prince

This song is so extremely addictive, Alex you’ve got the touch man! You’ve really got it

I love these music video styles, blessing was 90s / early 2000s grunge, this is like clean/quirky 2010s MV and when he's losing his shit through the lyrics of the song, there's a strangely upbeat visual to it. I'm excited to see what the third song does 👀 I wonder what's the album is shaping up to be
