After a while, I don't think anyone cares about the Wilbur situation anymore and we all collectively went back to listening to his music

2 YEARS OF LOVEJOY‼️‼️ WE'RE POPPING OFF TONIGHT BOYS‼️‼️‼️

When I heard Call me what you like on the radio, I knew that this wasn't just an internet band anymore. Now this is out and I'm just so happy that it's something new

Can we acknowledge how absolutely crazy Mark went on the drums this EP?

Can we take a moment to appreciating all of Ash’s editing? They seriously go crazy with every new release and I’m here for it

I really love hearing how their tone and delivery has improved since "Are You Alright?". Wilbur also seems much more confident in his vocals now.

can’t believe they released “are you alright?” 2 years and 3 days ago. it feels like yesterday i was listening to the songs on repeat. congrats on getting more recognized, and congrats on 2 years! we are all so proud of you guys

Listening to this through headphones on full volume while parents are arguing (my daily savior)

It’s so weird how you guys are getting more popular as our silly little band isn’t very little anymore… but we’re happy you guys are finally getting the attention you deserve!

IM NOT PARANOID, IM A REALIST 🗣🗣🔥🔥💯

This makes me realize Lovejoy isn’t our silly little band anymore… they are becoming a big band, and I’m so proud❤

The fact that this and AYA were released almost exactly 2 years apart makes me wanna cry happy tears 🥲🥲🥲. So proud of Lovejoy and I'm a proud day 1 listener 💪💪💪

Once again wilbur has managed to squeeze the phrase "apathy" into his EP (in Warsaw) 😂😂

I love how each song is a different form of self deprecation, tackling the different aspects that Wilbur (as a character) hates about himself, each song delving into a different insecurity he has and in turn venting his emotions. In Portrait of a Blank Slate, he talks about feeling like a nobody, like he has no personality and in the end is just another guy, a blank slate with a boring life. In Call Me What You Like, he degrades himself for how stupid he is. He thinks he's being cheated on, while at the same time trying to delude himself into believing it isn't true, all of it contributing to insecurities that no one would want to be with him. In Consequences, he vents about well, the consequences of his actions, and how incapable he feels of handling his impulses and thinking about the future. He just ends up drinking the night away without thinking about how much it'll suck the next day. In Warsaw, he expresses discomfort with this girl's habits as well, realizing she's just as bad for him and leading him into developing unhealthy habits. Wilbur chides her for those habits, especially during the speech, but at the same time he's complacent. "She hopes to god that I just choke" is both projection and truth, they'd be better for each other if they never met. And finally in Scum, he again talks about this codependency he and this girl have, but this time focusing on the type of people this girl gets with... Scum. He sees himself as scum, and believes that's all this girl sees in him, and everyone else she goes with. Scum that she can drag down more. In the end, all he wishes is to be free from her, and this cycle. To no longer be scum, dragging himself down and letting her pull him farther. Through every song, that girl is a common motif, a focus for all of Wilbur's securities, someone that he believes is the cause of everything that makes his life worse. Yet Wilbur is an unreliable narrator... which is why we get one more song. It's Golden Hour Somewhere. In this song, they finally split for good. The girl heads for some rich Tesla dealership owner or something, a relationship Wilbur chides. It doesn't really matter if his ex is a gold digger looking to hit it rich with that guy, and it doesn't matter if it's really love. All that matters is she's gone for good, and both Wilbur's influence and hers can't affect each other anymore. In doing so, Wilbur loses someone to blame. His self destructive tendencies no longer have someone else to project onto. Wilbur can't accept it, and so while he tries to attack something else, the elites, their fancy cars, everything they sell you... he can't help but realize his life just... sucks. And it's his fault. Regardless of how much he hates the rich, how much he hates his ex, everyone more successful than him... it's still worse when you can't pay. And so, it becomes his Golden Hour. At least, somewhere. Somewhere, it's someone's sunset, the end of their day, and with it, the end of Wilbur's. I firmly believe he dies by the end of the album, hanging himself with the rope he bought.

I'm so proud of you guys our "silly little band" isn't so little anymore, it's finally getting the attention we thought it deserved from the beginning. For the last 2 or 3 years I've been struggling with mental things and since I found Wilbur's music I've been more happy with everything, and then Lovejoy comes around and I've never felt better. I'm so proud of how much more confident Wilbur sounds in his singing, and everyone else sound SO FREAKING GOOD! So proud of all of you, Ash, Mark, Joe, and Wilbur. Tha k you for everything. So so so so so proud of you! Love all of you! LIVE LAUGH LOVEJOY!!!

Im so proud! Our little band from 2021 isn't so little anymore! 2.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify! I am glad you all get the recognition YOU ALL deserve!

I ALREADY KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO BE BANGERS

0:00 Portrait of a Blank Slate 3:45 Call Me What You Like 7:33 Consequences 10:44 Warsaw 14:13 Scum (It Eats You Alive) 18:07 It's Golden Hour Somewhere Edit: thanks for all the likes I really just did this so I had them for later

im honestly so astonished at how far this “silly little band” has came. i remember being around when lovejoy was just a thought and then the first and second EPs were released, i went to two of their gigs and now theres this EP and they’ve been on radio stations and are touring the world doing gig after gig. im honestly couldnt be prouder of all of them. they’ve worked so hard for this and its paying off. i have my upmost respect for this band as i watch them grow bigger by the day. just their music has helped me and so many others through so much and it’s obvious how much they care for all their fans. this silly little band isnt so little anymore and i couldn’t be happier.

wilbur has matured so much. he went from a kid playing music in his room on a crappy stream set to now on his first tour with an amazing band who has just grown with him. we luv lovejoy!!!

I’ve managed to avoid spoilers for all these songs (except Call Me What you Like, I watched the music video when it came out) and I’m so glad it’s finally here. Lovejoy has grown so much already, and I’m so proud of all of them!

Maturing is realising they aren't just a small band anymore. I'm so proud of Lovejoy, all of them. Thank you for all your hard work. Now I'm going to play this EP on loop

I’m so proud of this “silly little band” that made the songs I listened to through HS. It’s been one hell of a ride, and this EP has been awesome! I remember before Pebblebrain trying to find every snippet and ID that they played, and finding the best-sounding Live-shows of this EP. Thanks for being so awesome guys! ❤

The improvement since “Are You Alright?” is immaculate. I didn’t think they could get any better, but this had blown me away. Playing these on repeat all week

Lovejoy's (Full EP) Wake up & It's over 0:01 - PORTRAIT OF A BLANK STATE 3:47 - CALL ME WHAT YOU LIKE 7:34 - CONSEQUENCES 10:44 - WARSAW 14:14 - SCUM (IT EATS YOU ALIVE) 18:07 - IT'S GOLDEN HOUR SOMEWHERE

I don't know what makes me happier, the fact that my mom likes Lovejoy's music even more or the fact that this album released on my birthday and Call Me What You Like released on my mom's birthday

i still remember the stream that Wilbur announced that he was part of a band. been here since day 1. so insanely proud of how far our little band has come. gotten me thru some tough shi. love you - a lovenjoyer♥️

Having seen _"Consequences,"_ _"Call Me What You Like,"_ and _"Scum (It Eats You Alive)"_ live I'm confident the rest of the EP will be absolute bangers. (After having listened, I can testify to my previous statement.)

When Wilbur sing “I’m pretty cool when you ✨get to know me✨” his voice is so friggin AWESOME. Added so much to portrait of a blank slate!!

PORTRAIT OF A BLANK SLATE IS SO GOOD IM ACTUALLY SCREAMING, THIS EP IS SO AMAZING‼️‼️‼️

Lyrics Portrait of a blank slate: 0:00 He told me that much and now he's dead Taught me to kill my indulgences With a sharp blow to the temple Pick up the phone call and do everything he says I could take a plastic camera We could make such a pretty picture Oh so happy, Oh oh so happy I'm pretty cool once you get to know me I feel at some point I broke my mind I'm always searching the silent type How do you all make it look so easy? You open your hearts up so quickly it scares me She's an artist, paints across my chest Goes to parties, acts like hotel guests Wake up Monday, now it's over Don't you know no-one gets what they came here for? I could paint her, wrapped around her We could make such a pretty picture Oh so happy, Oh oh so happy I'm pretty cool once you get to know me But I'm just the same I've got a boring name Across the world from what you want and what you came here for So I'll wait here for you Said, "Please let me just stay Oh, just let me stay" I guess you know now what to expect He lives your own life in retrospect You know it bores me? These insecurities Breaks you down just to act like the architect I could wait here, by the west pier Watched the flotsam float, slowly disappear Oh so happy, Oh oh so happy If only you knew just how much better things could be Another week of action Another hypoglycemic reaction But I'm just the same I've got a boring name Across the world from what you want and what you came here for So I'll wait here for you Said, "Please let me just stay Oh, just let me stay Oh, just let me!" I'm sorry it's all so predictable I'm sorry it's all so predictable I know Call me what you like: 3:47 I never was a fan of the internet She never felt that safe in her own head We both hate the news There for the grace of God goes you Smiling when I ask if she's bored yet Wonder if we took it too far Both taste confused Darling, what am I to do? I'd like to think that I'm The only guy she'll see tonight You can call me what you like As long as you call me And you could kiss the skin from my lips 'Til it makes you feel good I'm not sure if you want it Not sure if you need me too And you can taste the beer On evеry guy who talks to you But you can't stay awake forever No you can't stay awakе forever And so I find myself in your mum's bedroom Fighting with the pink roller blinds It's on pay-per-view Place your bets on who's lost their mind Take a pirouette under duvet set Sigh with perfect pitch and with time I'm not made for you But what else is new? Oh, lord she tells me that it's nothing I really hope it's nothing And you can kiss the skin from my lips 'Til it makes you feel good I'm not sure if you want it Not sure if you need me too And you can taste the beer On every guy who talks to you But you can't stay awake forever No you can't stay awake forever This just in: I am a total fucking dumbass And I've come to the uncomfortable conclusion I'll be spending the rest of my life in a state Of constant paranoia Just let me follow you And I'll proceed to bang my head on every doorway And doorframe you see suitable for us to go through And I've found that the road to happiness is paved With rows and rows Of very tempting parking spaces I'm not paranoid, I'm a realist I know you're gonna kill me! And you can kiss the skin from my lips 'Til it makes you feel good I'm not sure if you want it Not sure if you need me too And you can taste the beer On every guy who talks to you But you can't stay awake forever No you can't stay awake forever And you can kiss the skin from my lips 'Til it makes you feel good I'm not sure if you want it Not sure if you need me too And you can taste the beer On every guy who talks to you But you can't stay awake forever No you can't stay awake forever Consequences: 7:34 Was it to late too call you Was I too drunk to know? Do you ever feel like you fell off For about a year I'd like to have another go 'Cause I haven't slept in about a week I stay up thinking I will die This time I'm blaming it on smoking Tried it once it wrecked my life Or maybe it's your laugh That keeps me up at night I wish I tried more Wish I tried more Wish I tried Oh what's this? The consequences of my actions, now? What's this? The consequences of my actions, now? What's this? The consequences of my actions, now? What's this? The consequences of my actions? "What time's the train start?" She asks me as I drawl You're just so painfully punctual I'm starting to get bored I decorate my mind The same beige as the walls I'm yours I'm yours I'm yours Drink, I've had too much to think Just tell me, baby Is this seat taken, now What's this? The consequences of my actions, now What's this? The consequences of my actions? What's this? What's this? What's this? What's this? Oh what's this? The consequences of my actions, now? What's this? The consequences of my actions, now? What's this? The consequences of my actions, now? What's this? The consequences of my actions? Warsaw: 10:44 She's broken up with him inside her head She's just waiting for the moment The precious moment to let him know She'll make up with a stranger, in unfamiliar beds It's good for me I'm sure, I'm sure it's good for me (I thought)I'd do anything you ask of me, that's sure (What for?)The fingers pressed until their sore, it's so (You said)"It's crazy we used to do this sober, You wake up and thank god it's over Just please just let me go (Warsaw!)The place we had our first kiss Is now a vaccination clinic (Warsaw!)Sat around a new Smeg fridge Singing "We're, oh so apathetic!" (Warsaw!)Smiles watching movies Lying, spread-out floral duvet (Warsaw)Looks at you with earnest grace She says, "The fuck it is we're doing?" I hate to say I told you But your habits wreck your head If not for fear of deep vein thrombosis I'd be there too, I guess She just smiles at me, then waits a bit Like guillotine, she says: "Sometimes home is a cigarette" You're too straight edge to get it I'd do anything you ask of me, that's sure (What for?)The fingers pressed until their sore, it's so (You said)"It's crazy we used to do this sober, You wake up and thank god it's over Just please just let me go, go (Warsaw!)The place we had our first kiss Is now a vaccination clinic (Warsaw!)Sat around a new Smeg fridge Singing "We're, oh so apathetic!" (Warsaw!)Smiles watching movies Lying, spread-out floral duvet (Warsaw)Looks at you with earnest grace She says, "The fuck it is we're doing?" _It doesn't get any better_ _You can try and try_ _But you'll just be a cog the machine_ _Apathy covers me like a cell, comforts in inmates_ _You wont get better, I assure you_ _Make no mistake, we're all gonna end up in the dark_ _I'll be seeing you soon_ She hopes to god that I just choke She hopes to god that I just choke She hopes to god that I just choke It gets a little easier She hopes to god that I just choke She hopes to god that I just choke She hopes to god that I just choke Scum: 14:14 I fear I've reached the end before I've reached death Pick up the pieces of me, you can have whats left No matter, how much you, think you love, him You'll still flinch, when his blood pool touches you 'Cus I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want He draws the samples so fast, It's medical Chest compressions in the incident support vehicle And I know it's Stockholm that you're stuck on How high's your pedestal But maybe, he'll be Jesus Maybe he'll be Jesus this time 'Cus I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what, you want _I recall staring at the sea for the first time_ Woah! I recall staring at the sea for the first time My eyes wandered, took the sights from the both sides They longed to be free, but all I could see was horizon That claustrophobic horizon *It's golden hour somewhere*: 18:07 Is this what you needed Is this what it worth To see the hidden folders Toe tipping out the desk I wish that I could kiss the pixels off your lips Describe our naked bodies, of zoom call partnerships So is this why you see him? A tesla dealership, his watch doesn't have his name on How will he know it's his? The sun reflects the light off hilltop window panes His grass is the wrong shade of green But he can pay to make it change They'll tell you this is normal They'll tell you this is love I'm not sure if the stuff I want, is even worth the price it costs There's cars in every garage, and six seats between them They'll sell you the rope by which you hang yourself Is this why you need me, to break what you can't choose To ram the holy scriptures down throats and tennis shoes Our father who art, thou central Monterey Take it from me baby, it's worse when you can't pay It's worse when you can't pay It's worse when you can't pay They'll tell you this is normal They'll tell you this is love I'm not sure if the stuff I want, is even worth the price it costs There's cars in every garage, and six seats between them They'll sell you the rope by which you hang yourself So tell me is it normal, to totally lose your mind I won't announce my sheer decent But, holy fuck, will there be signs We're all on a CFIT So take what you see fit They'll sell you the rope by which you'll hang yourself It's golden hour somewhere It's golden hour somewhere It's golden hour somewhere It's golden hour somewhere They'll sell you the rope by which you'll hang yourself

Can’t fucking wait to memorize every single lyric until it’s engraved into my brain.

The background trainvideo was aboard a Class 444 (029). And recorded on the 15th of june 2017. On the train between waterloo and Southampton.

Portrait of a blank slate is something on a completely different level than I expected. This EP is just so good and it's great to see you are only improving over time

It's so weird that they're so big now, they were never small ik but on a worldwide scale they were and seeing them get so big is just amazing, I have loved every single second and will proudly talk about the time I went to see Lovejoy, this band has literally carried me through the hardest times in my life, if I ever get to meet the band I'm going to thank them for all they've done

It feels just like yesterday that Lovejoy was just an idea wilbur mentioned on stream, and now they are GLOBALLY recognized with incredible music!! The improvement has been legendary and I can’t wait for more ❤️❤️❤️

What 6th song? Oh It's Golden Hour Somewhere? That didn't make it to the final release unfortunately GUYS IT WOULDN'T FIT IN THE COMMENT BUT SOMEONE ADDED IT IN THE REPLIES VVV

I love how artistically distinct the songs in this album are compared to the other two, lovejoy is so damn good and they’re only getting better

I've been here since the first EP dropped, Knowing this was dropping on friday literally carried me through a really rough week mentally. Cheers to Wilbur and the rest of the band, y'all have come so far!

i am tapping my toes I am banging my head I am rocking in my seat I am grinning like an idiot I LOVE THIS BAND

Portrait of a Blank Slate really struck a chord with me... absolutely gorgeous.

GOSH THIS IS SO GOOD. EVERY SINGLE DAMN SONG. big applause to Ash for editing such a beautiful background and the whole “little silly band” for this album, I have been waiting it since CMWYL release. continue writing Will, don’t spare your drums Mark, stay in rhythm Ash and go crazy with guitar Joe. LOVEJOY I LOVE YOU.🔥❤️ так же немного скажу на русском. ребята, кто только нашёл эту группу, вы не пожалеете, абсолютно. кто уже давно запал на эту компашку, люблю вас так же как и их. ❤️

YOOOOOOOO!! From seeing Wilbur soot upload "Your New Boyfriend" to having a band and having a band upload their 3rd EP and have sold out concerts, all of you are doing amazing!!!

I love how despite having been around for not too long as far as bands go they’ve already grown so much and become fairly prominent in their genre it’s so amazing to me

In 20 minutes it will be 1 year… I used to love this album, but I can’t now that I know what Wilbur did. I don’t know how to feel about it anymore.

This EP is amazing! I feel like it’s sort of a blend of “Are you alright” and “Pebble brain” cause it has pebble brain’s, sort of upbeat and energetic feel, but it also has some of “Are you alright” by being more serious sounding. I love this band so much, keep at it!

Oh my god..where do I even start? I remember finding Lovejoy back in 2020-2021, and absolutely falling in love. I repeatedly listened to Taunt, as that song was what got me into the band. I remember staying up at night, waiting for Pebble Brain to release. This band means so much to me. This band got me into guitar, made my interest in music spike, and helped me find myself. I listen to this band I feel refreshed, I feel at home. Ever since those clips from gigs of Lovejoy singing these songs, i knew the songs scum, IGHS, and Consequences were my tops. Scum I already knew, was my song. I felt so connected to that song, the exact way I did when I heard Taunt. It was like discovering the band again. The feeling was beautiful, comforting, and it meant everything to me. Over and over again I played the gig clips of those songs, singing the lyrics I thought I knew. For that whole over half a year, I’ve been so excited for this to drop. Now I’m listening to the ep on KZfaq, waiting for it to release on Spotify like I once did last year. Lovejoy, I am so proud of how far you’ve came. You inspire so many people, you’ve helped people, and it’s so beautiful to watch you grow. Seeing where you started to where you are now. I’m here with you, every milestone and every step of the way. 🤍🖤

I really like Lovejoy's style of music, it just tickles my brain in just the right way

It's crazy how the first ep was released 2 years ago and that the fandom isn't as small anymore. I'm so proud of what the band has become and what will come next🎉🎉

This really feels like Lovejoy have found their sound and absolutely ran with it. Beautifully made EP :)

OMG I HAVE SPENT THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS STAYING AWAY FROM LIVE PERFORMANCES OF THESE SONGS HAND HOLY FUCKING SHIT WAS IT WORTH IT. Scum is FUXKING masterpiece Edit: THIS WHOLE FUCKING EP IS A MASTERPIECE

Having heard three of these songs live, I knew this album was going to be amazing. I was wrong, it's not just amazing, it's incredible.

Time stamps for each song 0:00 Portrait of a Blank Slate 3:45 Call Me What You Like 7:33 Consequences 10:44 Warsaw 14:13 Scum (It Eats You Alive) 18:07 It's Golden Hour Somewhere

I just love how different each EP and Album is either in sound or theme but you can tell it’s lovejoys own sound it’s really cool

I'm pretty late to the party, only becoming a Lovejoy fan earlier this year, but this community has been so welcoming. I don't think I've encountered any legit gatekeepers which is a huge plus! Of course, this band is freaking amazing, I really love how down to earth and connected to the fans they are. They've done such an incredible job, I can't wait to see where they go and I'm so excited to be along for the journey

You can definitely see how much they've all improved! Don't get me wrong, all their songs are amazing, but they're all different in their own way, and their style changes as they keep growing! Glad you're getting the attention you guys deserve!

has to be entirely intentional that the lyrics for the chorus of Portrait of a Blank Slate includes "Said, please just let me stay/Oh, just let me stay" and then in Warsaw the chorus goes "Just please just let me go

Wilbur, from the album you gave ownership to us to this, words cannot express how proud we all are of you. I’m happy to say I’ve been listening to your music since 2019

There's nothing better than listening to lovejoy at 2 am

HEADPHONES AINT ENOUGH I NEED ALL OF THESE SONGS INJECTED INTO MY BLOODSTREAM 🤧🤧

Its such an odd coincidence that every time lovejoy releases a new song I get a new favorite song

Timestamps 00:00 - Portrait of a blank slate 03:45 - Call me what you like 07:33 - Consequences 10:43 - Warsaw 14:13 - Scum (It eats you alive) 18:06 - It's golden hour somewhere

I’m glad to have started listening back in 2021, since then our scrunkly little band grew and now it isn’t so little. WE’RE SO PROUD OF YOU LOVEJOY!

CONSEQUENCES GOES SO HARD 🔥🔥🔥 AND SO DOES EVERY OTHER SONG ON THIS EP, GREAT JOB GUYS 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I am so proud of our "silly little band". Like look at these guys touring Europe and the US, being played on the radio, appearing in magazines and now releasing their third EP. I wanted to decide what my favourite song was but i would just name all of them so i am just gonna say good job and congrats on this EP. Will, Ash, Mark and Joe what you are doing is amazing. Thank you for being there for us over the past two years and quite literally bringing us the love and the joy💕

I’m so happy that they reused the main character syndrome sequence for Warsaw, probably my favourite unreleased song they ever wrote

Literally honored to have listened to it 5 hours early because my friend bought the CD lol. This EP is EPIC and I love it just as much if not more than Pebble Brain! Soooo much Talent in this band It’s unreal. I’m glad they’re getting the attention they deserve ❤❤❤ All 6 songs are already going on all my playlists 😂 worth the wait for sure! Excited to see how far Lovejoy has come. I’m sure it only gets better from here! (Not that we should pressure them to make more music. This is more then enough and they should take their time and enjoy this moment of pride!!!) I don’t know why anyone from Lovejoy would see this but if you do CONGRATS! I’m a huge fan! ❤

This immediately made my day, week, month, and season, Incredible as always Lovejoy!

All of you guys putting these hate comments are just helping the channel.. Lmao. It also helps earn money. If you don't like them, just move on. You only support by commenting more and more.

I just think it so crazy how much better Wilbur's voice has gotten since Are You Alright. Everything in this album is just CRAZY and this will be the new thing that I can't stop talking about. I don't care if I didn't get tickets to their show, this is already more than we EVER could ask for. This is just amazing. I have no words. I woke up at 6:00 AM to listen to this before I go to school. I thought Pebblebrain was the best album ever, and now this? This is just a work of art man. Thank you SO MUCH for this absolute MASTERPIECE of music Lovejoy and please keep making music! edit: Holy shit 400+ likes in 1 day? Update: Uh...so i got tickets...

already listened to it on spotify and god i’ve gotta admit that this is the best music you’ve ever made. we can see the progress with the same character of your melodies that we are used to. im so proud of u and wish u the greatest success u can even think of. love u boys :]

Before watching this, all I knew was that I was beyond excited to hear Consequences. This ENTIRE album has blown me away and these are my new favorite songs. Lovejoy, you never fail to amaze and suprise us ❤ Love from the U.S

0:00 Portrait of a Blank Slate 3:45 Call Me What You Like 7:33 Consequences 10:44 Warsaw 14:13 Scum (It Eats You Alive) 18:07 It's Golden Hour Somewhere (Love this so much. holly crap.)

It’s always a good day when we get new lovejoy music!

As one of the many ppl who’s been here since 2021. It’s been fun seeing you silly lil band grow. I’m so beyond proud, so proud to see how you all made it. Thank you n this was so worth the wait especially seeing how it’s golden hour somewhere else wasnt scrapped. I’m so grateful. also, I’ll like to easily say this has officially bet are you alright? As my favourite. You’ve all improved so much since that ep and, I genuinely can’t even pick a favourite despite trying. GONNA NOT STOP HSVING THIS ON LOOP FOR AGES :D

ANY WORDS CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW I FEEL WHILE LISTENING TO THIS MASTERPIECE

Happy 1 year, Wake Up & It's Over! I remember last year it becoming the absolute bop of my May and summer. My holidays wouldn't start without Warsaw playing on the TV. 2 songs from the EP I had the honour to translate on Genius. My most open-hearted gratitude goes over to everyone who had their part in creating this abslolutely stupendous piece of musical art

It’s crazy how much they’ve grown in two years. It feels like yesterday when they released their first ep.

the improvement of Lovejoy from their first ep (which are still bangers in their own right) has been absolutely incredible to watch, I'm so HYPED for this

“Portrait of a blank slate” is so Arctic Monkeys coded, I love it! Also this masterpiece of an ep is a banger from the first second to the last

FUCKING BANGERS BOYS!! These simultaneously reach inside my brain and scratch my spinal cord as well as make my chest want to explode 10/10

Here’s to the third EP! 🎉🎉🎉 I’ve been listening since you guys first started, and I’m proud to be a fan. I wish I could’ve made it to one of the US shows, but unfortunately all were pretty far or were inconvenient. I’m proud of you guys, and it’s crazy to see the changes from Are You Alright? to Pebble Brain and now Wake Up and It’s Over. I can’t wait to see what else is in store and watch Lovejoy take over the world. To another year as my top artist on Spotify, Lovejoy rocks! 🐈🕊️🛩️🚂

im very emotional right now, i still remember the release of "are you alright?" where the band was little known, look at them now having concerts and having fully deserved support from the start, im so proud tbh

The addition of “It’s Golden Hour Somewhere” was so epic. Congrats guys, you put out an amazing album! 🎉

I went to Siberia for a month due to my university practice. I downloaded this video and listened every day. Now there are 30 more people who love Lovejoy)

I'VE BEEN HERE SINCE THE LITERAL BEGINNING AND I COULDN'T LOVE THIS BAND MORE, SEING THE EVOLUTION OF THEIR MUSIC HAS BEEN AMAZING. I COULDN'T BE PROUDER. I LOVE U GUYS SO MUCH

I actually planned on staying up all night until the album came out, thankfully it was released earlier than that

Look i was expecting bangers, but Portrait of a Blank State is just.... What on earth, i haven't felt this many chills for music in a long while

13:13 i love wake up and its over SO much but this is by far my favorite part of the entire ep and everything theyve ever done

OMG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ALBUM FOR SO LONG! Congrats on how far you guys have come!

I remember when Wilbur announced that he was in a band now but wouldn't say the Name yet. And then how he showed the first thing they tried (and failed) to record. They've come such a long way! Love the way the style progressses. Excited for what's to come. Portrait of a blank slate is a BANKER!!! (you're right Phil)

The drums for all the songs go so hard

The surprise song at the end is the cherry on top. Banger album and banger band.

I swear these get better and better every time

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Lovejoy for all the time and effort they put into their works to please us all. It's amazing to see the language diversity in the comments which proves just how popular Lovejoy is becoming. I hope that ONE DAY (haha do you see what I did there?) I can see this amazing band live and hear all of their outstanding tracks in person. Thanks again! I was waiting for this for months!

Was part of SootHouse in the late-2010s, and then he became a solo youtuber, then he joined an SMP, then he had some solo songs blow up, then he made his own band. Now that band is on radio worldwide. Wilbur has had so many popular ventures throughout the years, and now he's blowing up outside the internet realm. I've been here for pretty much most of it (since early-2019? After SootHouse kinda went silent). It's been a wild, but fun ride, and it has all paid out in the end. ^^
