This song pumped me up so hard I cleaned my whole room.

Can't believe this came out THREE years ago, feels like yesterday.

2024 can’t stop and won’t stop listening to all of PARAMORE

I love how Paramore always takes sad emotions and makes them into fun songs

the lyrics: depressing the rythm: super happy and optimistic

This should be 2020's anthem.

Man, it's been six years already? Hard times is still a banger! I just read that Hayley came down with a lung infection and had to cancel the remaining dates of the recent NA tour. Take all the time you need, Hayley. Your true fans understand and will be waiting for your next release. Get well soon!

This is the best song for hard times. So catchy and melancholic

Hayley is so charismatic. I love how she's goofing around while singing about depression and struggles.

depression funk is one of the most practically important genres i've ever encountered tbh

Lyrics All that I want Is to wake up fine Tell me that I'm alright That I ain't gonna die All that I want Is a hole in the ground You can tell me when it's alright For me to come out gonna make you wonder why you even try (Hard times) gonna take you down and laugh when you cry (These lives) and I still don't know how I even survive (Hard times) (Hard times) And I gotta get to rock bottom Walking around With my little rain cloud Hanging over my head And it ain't coming down Where do I go? Gimme some sort of sign You hit me with lightning Maybe I'll come alive gonna make you wonder why you even try (Hard times) gonna take you down and laugh when you cry (These lives) and I still don't know how I even survive (Hard times) (Hard times) And I gotta hit rock bottom Tell my friends I'm coming down We'll kick it when I hit the ground Tell my friends I'm coming down We'll kick it when I hit the ground When I hit the ground When I hit the ground When I hit the ground When I hit the ground gonna make you wonder why you even try (Hard times) gonna take you down and laugh when you cry (These lives) and I still don't know how I even survive (Hard times) (hard times) (Hard times) (hard times) gonna make you wonder why you even try (Hard times) gonna take you down and laugh when you cry (These lives) and I still don't know how I even survive (Hard times) (hard times) (Hard times) And I gotta get to rock bottom

😭 2023 ? ANYONE

Paramore is great when you feel sad but not sad enough to admit you're sad

Can’t believe it’s been 4 years already since this came out

Future, please don't make this song die Thank you! -november 2023

I am so sad that I missed this song when it was… popular. But so grateful I heard this today. I only ever knew paramore to be one style of music, and this was not it. But this chorus, has such an MGMT, pumped up kicks sound. It just walks me through the entire song and makes me wish for more chorus’s over and over. 🗣️ hard times

This song is to dance while you're crying.

“Does she age” SHE WAS 28 WHEN THIS CAME OUT THAT AINT EVEN OLD FELLAS COME ON

Loved how the colors are distinct and really pop up on the screen. Cheers to their excellent songwriting. Hard Times is a testament to how much we try and end up failing or close to failing.

Don't worry you're not the only one listening this masterpiece in 2023. Forever Paramore 💞💞

When you’re depressed but you’re still vibin’.

When your depressed but at the same time being optimistic

It's actually very nice of them to make a song about being miserable, with a melody that cheers you up

2024 ? Anyone

hello and thanks for waiting. we are pleased to present Hard Times from our new album After Laughter. p.s. it’s good to talk to you again

This song has never felt more relevant right now

The guitarist is on his own level his riffs are really why i started to like Paramore on real world and since

This came out the day after I lost my granny Ruth! I remember crying, listening to this like 10 times in a row! Gave me a little sanity through my hard time! ❤️❤️❤️

I cant handle how pretty she is, gosh¡¡

What a brilliant idea to make a song about sadness and self doubt so catchy and upbeat, that thought alone makes me smile.

6 years ago this tune helped me get out of a big state of sorrow by embracing it and colour-vibing through tears. After Laughter for ever❤

Still listening to this song thank you Paramore 🥰 your always be my favorite band forever 😍

I like how Paramore isn't one of those bands that have the one singing in the whole vid leaving the people playing the instruments out of it. Instead they all feel the experience

F U N K Y D E P R E S S I ON

Yesterday I was able to attend one of Paramore’s performances and it was a dream come true for me. I grew up with Paramore I was so happy to see them even if I was far from the stage. Thank you Paramore for coming to Colorado and performing for us. I had a blast so please come back anytime ❤️❤️❤️

I can't stop playing this HELPPP

It's been 2 years since this song made me cry tears of joy that Paramore were back again. I love this band so much.

This song hits more now then ever, God I wish I was back in the early 2010’s

The visuals in this video are on point.

even though the lyrics are depressing, this song makes me unexplainably happy

This has cured my depression, cleared my skin, and has given me additional ten years of life.

The day this video was released was the day my daughter was born. I’ll never forget it. Now we sing to it! This song and “Clover Cage - Colorblind With A Beautiful Mind” are the two songs keeping me sane through these tough times. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you ❤️😊🎉

When I first heard this I had no idea it was paramore, sounds like a hit from the 80s possibly. Decent vibe change I gotta say it grew on me.

I love songs that are about depression and dealing with ‘hard times’ but don’t necessarily make the vibe depressing.. like it almost makes you feel motivated to become happier. I love that. :)

When ur toaster breaks and u gotta use the fire of this song to warm up your toast

Paramore makes me wanna cry because when I listen to the lyrics I remember all the sad things that have happened in my life, but the actual music makes me remember the feeling of when I overcame.

2024 ANYONE???

Suddenly my life just got better , i can't wait to hear whole album

I like how upbeat it is, but it's about being depressed.

6 anos.. o tempo voa. Saudades demais dessa época

Can’t believe I got to see her perform this live 😩🖤🖤🖤🖤

At the first listen, I went "wtf happened to Paramore". 3 days later and I'm listening to this song everyday ! Super catchy af !

I can't explain it but everything about the song and video just feels right??? Like it's very pleasing to the ears and eyes for me idk man

This song and Paramore as a whole holds a special place in my Heart. it has helped me through all the rough patches and down moments in my life since 2017, and for that I am forever grateful to Paramore, Haley, Taylor, and Zac for real!!! I dedicate the Muse title of my first project to Paramore

the fact that this started playing in my store after a customer was mean to me on my shift LMAO. life feels like a movie sometimes.

When you're depressed af but still trying to have a good time

3 years!! 3 years hayley!! waiting for this time... those were hard times v:

One of the best of Paramore 💯🔥🔥

That chorus though 🔥

“Hard times, gonna make you wonder why you even try” that hit hard

Paramore: sings about depression and suicide but in a cool fun happy way lmao

The fact this is on my "happy songs" playlist is so funny.

Paramore will never fully understand how this song impacted people. And that is ok. They sent out their message and it reached the people it needed to.

*This song is for when you know that things wont get better but you wanna make yourself think things will get better*

"All that I want Is a hole in the ground", this sentence is simply representing me at this time.

Everything is beautiful in this work of art 🎨🎸

Sad lyrics and happy beat. Noice

Still mad at the general public for not getting this song to #1.

the breakdown at the end is absolutely phenomenal

This song is always stuck in my head

Watching Haley dance is so addictive I don't even understand it

'not like old paramore', 'theyve changed' this song makes me feel fuckin good and thats all i care about

Great song, love revisiting this as the years go by.

listened to this as a kid never knew what was the meaning 😩

This song hits harder when you can relate to it

Hard Times: Making me wait 4 long years to fall in love with another new Paramore song

Love this song. Come back to it time after time.

I’m so grateful this song exists. Paramore 4EVAH!

Hayley Williams dancing with a backpack is the definition of love at first sight hahaha

The funny fact is that this video is pure fun but the lyrics are so 'I'm depressed af, send help'

They should be honored on Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

I remember learning about this band back when I was a kid and playing sims 2 and hearing pressure in simlish, I have loved seeing this band grow along with me ageing

“too rock for pop and too pop for rock” -Taylor York

Ladies and gentlemen... The band that was a part of my childhood.

Do not know if this is best song from paramore, but I think it is the one I have played the most and the reason I bought the album After Laughter.

This music video is so creative and fits the song so well… well done paramore!

this is addictive af

I love the retro vibe. In the song, and the video.

This brings so much nostalgia from my childhood.

This song just pop out of nowhere in my mind and i forgot this song existed, I remember those days when this song always repeating in MTV like everyday.

This Indie Pop era sounds so good with them

i love upbeat songs about depressing things

i remember being obsessed with this song when i was 11 now i finally found it!

Hayley said it best on the last album (which by the way was excellent.) "Some of us have to grow up sometimes." Paramore since the beginning has made good music. The sad part of this all is that, music fans always expect their favorite artists to be the same as when they came out, or a certain album. Is life that way? do we just stay kids forever? What if we ate the same food? or wore the same clothes everyday? Life wouldn't be fun if we didn't take any chances or try new things. So in a nutshell (& no offense to because I love this side of them too.) Riot, All we know is.., and BNE fans? that's what youre asking from them, to stay the same. Listen, I don't think Paramore will ever give up on their roots & style that made them famous. They even gave us that on the last album & people are still complaining. Give em a chance! they know what we like!! Lol, but they're trying new ways to not make it boring for us. Cmon y'all.

The vibe I get from this song is "Life sucks, but seeing as it does, and that's not going to change, might as well dance."

who's listening in 2023?

One of their best songs

*it's been 2 years already ?? I remember watching it as if it was yesterday*

It's been a long 4 years, babes. 😌Welcome back👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️

this era wasn't as appreciated as it should've been when it first came out. But honestly its been getting better and more relatable as we get older.
