The man explains music like its mathematics

Charlie is the literal definition of musical GENIUS

Proud of Charlie Puth!!!!

I mean Charlie wrote one of the most emotional hit of all time ( See you again) but the melody on this one is just INSANE. It gets me so freaking deep in my feels. It's like a nostalgia of a situation I've never been dealing with.

I think his voice was a little shaky because of how it always takes him back to that phase. Anyway, I cannot express how much lucky this universe is to have a musician like Charlie Puth. He literally knows how to channel his grief and it has always done good to mankind.

"It didn't matter how much Windex I put on the window, the window was already cracked " damn charlie,, that is a hell of a quote

i can NEVER get over how absolutely genius charlie is

This kid is a freaking GENIUS Can't believe he doesn't get the recognition and the credit he deserves.

His voice when he sings vs when he just talks... sounds like 2 different people and im in love with that💕

How somebody can explain their music like we're in a class truly shown how capable he is. He deserve all the awards.

Absolutely love hearing what's behind Charlie's music, lyrically and musically. A genius. Love you Charlie!!! 💚💚

This man is undeniably a musical genius/legend. His ability to compose is outstanding. He is severely underrated

Even tho the song was painful to sing he explained it so maturely I’m so proud of him :’)

I love how he explained his songwriting process. I've never really seen an artist do that before on Genius.

when somebody calls you and you can tell that they want something, this hits deep and funny Charlie chosen to tell that to all those people in here how he feels about it, lol. He is so open about the lyrics and the meaning behind it, its so heart touching and really intensely amazing. He is such a sweetheart and he deserves to be happy !

"You took a year of my f***king life and I cant get it back no more" my favorite part!!!! Love you Charlie

Charlie puth has really come a long way since his early work hope this new album is great 🔥🔥🔥🔥

how can this guy have such a deep voice and when he is singing his voice goes so high bro

Charlie puth is the perfect combination of Genius and Creative. And every thing else that the music industry needs in one person WOW.

He is truly one of the REAL ARTISTS in the world.

He has such a good voice. That's a person who can sing, produce and write music

Getting to listen the back story of a track makes you wanna go and play that song back even more it kinda indulges you in the song and charlie does that with ease ❤️ so much love and power to you Charlie for sharing toughest time of your life through that's hilarious

5:11 that line seemed pretty funny at first, but the more i think about it, it’s actually really true lol

These songs for the new album and their messages I feel have never connected with audiences like ever before. Charlie really understands how to reel the listener in so well with his infectious melodies and using common everyday sentences into his songs which grounds his relate-ability. While I agree this song sorely missed a bridge, that's just the beauty of That's Hilarious where it keeps making you want to go through that roller-coaster of a journey again and again and again. Highly relatable to my own circumstances I faced a few years ago so I easily gravitated towards this song, favourite of the new album so far but I think the other ones like Loser and Smells Like Me are really going to elevate this third album when we hear em' in full!

This. This is what talent looks like.

I LOVE HIM SM. I love how he talks about not only the importance and meaning of the song but also the tecnical parts of it. Also, its great how he started talking about things other artists do that inspired him before talking about the song itself.

I never noticed the sync between the lines of the first verse and the 2nd verse😯😯😯. He's a freaking Genius🔥🔥🔥

omg. first it was shawn mendes being on genius for the first time,, AND NOW Y'ALL HAVE CHARLIE ON HERE FOR A 2ND😭😭💅🏾💅🏾THANK YOU!

Charlie i truly have felt every lyric of this song in exactly the same way you have explained it in this interview. This only shows how communicative your music is and that's one reason why i connect with you and your music. I don't understand the technicality of music making but what i do understand is the emotions involved in every song you create and share with us, which takes me down the memory lane of my own experiences. I keep falling in love with your style of music more and more... it's so fresh, so new that everytime you come up with a new song it makes me realise there's so much more i have to learn about your music and you. Thank you so much for your hardwork and dedication. Thank you so much for being you. I will always support you. Love Nasrin 💚

Charlie is finally getting the recognition he deserves!! He’s been underrated for way to long now, I’m happy people have finally opened their eyes 👀

just love how his voice changes, when he speaks to when he sings its hilarious!!

Please universe get my man Charlie the girl he deserves. As much I love the heart-breaking bangers but I genuinely want this man to be happy and in a fulfilling relationship ♡

He's the most naturally talented artist to ever exist 😭 I love him 💗

His talking voice is not at all what you’d expect, based on his singing. And when he laughs he’s like three different people. He’s so insanely talented it’s crazy

I love how Charlie always put so much emotion into this songs from true experiences, especially if it’s from a very difficult and heavy one like this. It’s just another reason that shows how much of an amazing artist he truly is. He inspires me to do the same when I write songs. We’re proud of you Charlie!! 💚

Charlie Puth is literally a musical GENIUS---

This is totally my favourite song! I love it so much! Charlie is so considerate about the people he writes about even though he is hurt 😭♥ A musical genius ❤

charlies voice accapella sounds like it has autotune on naturally

Amazing interview! Proud of Charlie to finish writing this song and it's great to see him explain the meaning behind it. His voice sounds really good too especially in the falsetto. I feel like he's being a lot more honest and vulnerable with his music, sharing more about who he is as a person

This was so great to watch! I love the breakdown of the song and the meaning of it all!

Knowing him because Marvin Gaye i was just like 11 back then lol(now i am 18) so he's became little part of my life(remembering when i always plays"one call away and We dont talk anymore" everyday ) He did a great genius job with this Album

He low key on Grindr. I know I’m not the only one who think so. I support you.

he's the most talented musician in this generation

He’s such an amazing artist-no questions there-but I think my favourite “Charlie” thing about him is that he’s so technical and intentional with his music and it’s amazing to watch him geek out about it for little bit🥹🥹

OMG his voice , not just his singing voice but even as he speaks !! Love the song and lyrics xo

"If your gonna make me cry, I'm gonna make you cry. " Charlie's Villian like words.

Charlie is literally my favorite artist and seeing this make me love him even more

Such a great breakdown of the song! Totally enjoyed the way he explained it all 💚

I really enjoy hearing more about the production side of things from Charlie. Does anyone know if he does more talks like that anywhere?

Charlie puths music has gotten me through the worst breakup of my life and made me feel like there's others ppl to connect to that's gone through this besides me. Sounds corny but it got me through many nights of tears lately.

LOVE all the diffrent emotions in his voice, makes him explaing what he did go through much realer 😭💕

Charlie was so kind to tell his songwriting tips and tricks to all of us... From what he experienced combined with musical knowledge that he knows 😊👏👏. And it seemed that Charlie has pretty much moved on compared than before, looking at how casually he told the story... Although at some point his voice cracked a bit (2:03) and he was gazing away.. But the quotes he told like wow.. he's wiser now.. Proud of him that he could tell the story well ☺👍. And him singing acapella of That's Hilarious was sooo goooodd.. 😊.

I think this guy is the best musician after the Michael Jackson! He has the knowledge.. And the talents everything, waiting for the whole album charlie! ❤️

He really make the rollercoaster effect work, I've been listening to this song over and over for 3 days, I wake up with it in my mind, I love it so much 💕

I love how you translate what happened into a song that makes us dance and cry at the same time 🤍💙💛

Love to see him sharing this sensitive story with us ! We love you, Charlie 💚

Song title: 🤣😂 The lyrics: 😭💔

I’m his fan since 2017 and I’m really proud of him to making this album in his own way and just being himself 😌🤓

Charlie is definitely authentic composer singer. He knows those notes very well and loves to play around with it.

"If you're gonna make me cry then I'M gonna make you cry"- Thiss 😭

"It didn't matter how much windex I put on the window. The window was already cracked." so good.

Awesome video I love the song glad I could catch this video

i love so much how he explain all the process and his voice 😭

AMAZING. In tears by the end. I love you Charlie! I loved this!

So amazing!! The song is more perfect right now that I understand the way that he wrote it. Charlie is a great musician ❤️

the confidence that's seeping out of Charlie is gold✨ it's just so important to keep believing we deserve respect and what we're doing at trying times like what Charlie has been thru and see this is such a big hit!

omg yesssss we wanted a Genius interview with Puth. thankssss

"i was giving all of myself, and meanwhile that person was already broken. so it didn't matter how much Windex i put on the window when it was already cracked" that line actually killed me. it's so clear how he's so sweet and giving but so fragile...

This is one smart dude. And the rollercoaster trick, man never thought about that and will have to implement it for my next song.

Love Charlie for the way he puts his thoughts and nothing goes into his songs without a reason. Loved this song since I heard it first! Go Charlie!! we're all here for you. ✨

“so it didnt matter how much windex i put on the window, the window was already cracked” 👏👏👏

TH > LS

charlie is so talented. i hope he comes to florida and i get to see him live. he’s amazing

"... but if you're gonna make me cry, I am gonna make you cry" Damn boy!

He has been through allot may he find the strength to keep going in life stay strong 💪 and keep up the good work 👍

Charlie puth, so much love for him. Love his honesty❤️

I love how respectful he is to someone who broke his heart.

That's absolutely hilarious how Charlie Puth is so genius. Dont let love drag you down and if this happend and you are on the bottom there is only one way and its up. Keep going. Love your music Charlie.

How could someone not appreciate him while they have him he’s precious

So awesome to see Genius putting a spotlight on underground artists! This guy is gonna go far

I appreciate how transparent Charlie is when he's producing music.

Fascinating his passion for music and how he gave us a free lesson of music. Genius! Loved it!

eagerly waiting for the "Loser" ❤️

His talking voice is so much deeper than I expected

Love him so much. Someone needs to give him a hug

I wish he completes the song "I don't think I like her anymore". I honestly find it alot better than "Light switch" and "Hilarious".

I almost memorized all the lyrics because the words in the lyrics describe how I feel right now.. maybe because I sing it almost every day, right?

Wow this was the most intimate genius video i've watched. This song made me look at charlie with a newer perspective.

when his voice gets shaky you can tell he is reliving that moment and he’s trying not to cry

Thank You for this amazing brief masterpiece!💚

Can’t wait to hear Charlie perform this live! 🥰

When I tell you this man is a musical genius! 💗

The Pre-chorus of this song hits so so different it really takes us back in time.

this man is such a musical genius. I admire him so much

This songs hits me because i went throught the same like he did in his life 8 years of Charlie puth fan I'm here ❤️

Love your songs

My favorite male singer! Can’t wait to hear Charlie!

Charli Puth is Amazing

Dude, he's a brilliant musician and producer!😆🥳

I was waiting for this so muchhhhh
