So... this is how Amber felt with SMs contract on the past years... now i get it. She's so brave btw. Congrats Amber!

it’s so surreal to see how this whole music video is based on the dark sides of the kpop music industry

I think more women should be given sleek, powerful choreos like this.

Lyrics~ I'm tested by these fools They telling me I’ve got nothing to lose They don’t see their eyes so blind In my heart I know that I'm seeing the light 'Cause I'm acting like it’s alright Walking circles trying to find Tell me why (Tell me why) Tell me why (Tell me why) I'll keep saying that I don’t mind With these eyes I'm trying to deny Tell me why (Tell me why) I'll be standing here With these hands Hands behind my back These hands (Hands, hands) These hands behind my back These hands (Hands, hands) Hands behind my back These hands won’t let me go Don’t know where to turn them Trapped inside the mess I'm screaming Oh, I'm screaming, yeah (Yeah) (Can somebody help me?) Can somebody help me? (Can somebody save me?) Can somebody save me? Anybody please Somebody set me free 'Cause I'm acting like it’s alright Walking circles trying to find Tell me why (tell me why) Tell me why (tell me why) I will keep saying that I don’t mind With these eyes I'm trying to deny Tell me why (Tell me why) I will be standing here With these hands Hands behind my back These hands (Hands, hands) These hands behind my back These hands (Hands, hands) Hands behind my back These hands won’t let me go [Bridge] I'll keep acting like it’s alright Walking circles trying to find I'll keep saying that I don’t mind (Mind, mind) With these eyes I'm trying to deny Please, just tell me why With these hands Hands behind my back These hands (Hands, hands) These hands behind my back These hands (Hands, hands) Hands behind my back With these hands I'll let you go (Yeah, let it go, go) (Yeah, let it go, go) (Yeah, let it go, go) With these hands I'll let you go

We all know she can sing, we knew she could dance, but this MV hit me harder than a Monday morning.

So thats what the SM dungeon looks like...interesting

honestly. This is the most accurate example of the K-pop industry.

watching her dance is mesmerizing, she's so talented

Why do I feel like amber’s had this song written for a long time and had been waiting for this moment to release it

Amber can sing, dance and rap like no other, she's also super creative and talented, lastly she's too real for this world....#StanAmber #MeU

Not even 1M? Smh I’m disappointed at y’all, Amber deserves better

Brooooooooo why is no one talking about my girl's vocals. Like OMG

They made her a rapper when she has a voice like that?! I'm so glad she's free to create masterpieces like this now.

She's doing much better without SM. I'm so happy.

Her voice is so clear. Her dance is so smooth. This mv has so many meanings. This has to get more recognition. You have to like this before leaving.

I hope Amber is okay after the news of Sulli came out.

Amber voice is really pretty ...i remember her saying one time that her mother sings like angel ..well i guess that where u got your voice

not even half of her face is shown and i already died because it looks great! So exited!!

I'm speechless I'm just crying so hard as I'm typing and thinking how sad it is that I can relate to the darkness of this MV though nobody in my life notices it from outside...Amber it's been 4 years that I'm a fan of you, through all the ups and downs you've experienced these past years, you still managed to be the most energetic, hopeful, inspiring, motivating and genius artist I ever know and that makes me proud of you...thank you for everything you did for me without even knowing me

Omg Im in love she’s so beautiful

So lucky to have such a talented person in my life. This MV, this song, everything. You worked so hard for so long ~ so happy youre finally releasing everything 💜🙌🏻

I'm so proud of her, she's amazing and she deserves all the love on the earth, so does this song

This is literally amber telling us how the kpop industry is like! It’s horrible!! I’m glad she’s out of SM and doing the things she love! Cheering & supporting you on amber!!

Listening to this song after hearing about Sulli.

Am i really the only one who notices how pretty Amber's eyes are???? Like. I can just stare into her eyes and feel like im in some sort of trance rofl.

She wears what she wants She dances how she wants She sings her heart out She's the main character in her own story Finally, This is AMBER LIU!!!!

I LOVE HOW THERE IS A MUSIC VIDEO FOR EVERY SONG IN THIS ALBUM!

The song is telling a story and the music video is another. Both stories are sad realities that we are all aware of but got no control over. How many idols are we gonna watch drown to anxiety and depression? This is heartbreaking. 💔

Imagine being a company with a trainee with a voice like that and still deciding she should be a rapper instead... Sounds and looks amazing, Amber! Love from Slovenia

this song makes me so sad knowing that she’s finally free, as well as the other girls. im so proud of you amber. #llamalove small kpop youtuber here

Here after the news of Sulli and I think this song says it all 😭

she and her voice....both are so beautiful

*Im not saying this song is about the toxic reality in kpop industry but that's exactly what Im saying*

You have a grandma fan, Amber. That was wonderful.

Hello Llama, as a Shawol, I’m sure our BlingBling is very proud of you wherever he is. I wish you all the happiness. *inserts my pearl aqua heart*

Coming from hello82 video amber is an angel in human form honestly

I think you already free by coming out from that SM shit... Fly amber fly 🌹🌹🌹🌹

My mom (a 48 year-old shawol) became her fan back then in 2012 when she first saw the Electric Shock MV while we were getting into Kpop together. She was so excited when Amber debuted as a solo artist, and every single thing she released, we were there for her. When I told her that Amber quit the company she told me with such confidence "She'll succeed in a blink. It's impossible not to succeed for her because she's so talented and unique that I bet every company wants or needs someone like her." And of course she's right! I just wanted Amber to know that my mom really loves her, her voice, and her beautiful soul. And so do I. We're so proud of you honey! I wish you could know all the positive impact you've left in the ones who support you, like us. Keep fighting!

She's the FIRST AND ONLY female artist that I can say I relate to. That I can see myself in. I recently found out about her and I'll definitely be following her music journey. Finally a female artist that isn't girly. One that reminds me that there are girls who dress like I do (in my social circles I don't have others who have this style) I Stan!!

To me, Amber Liu isn't just an idol. She's my role model and someone who I want to be like when I'm older. I respect her more than i could possibly say, and I love her so damn much that I want to cry. I can't believe how amzing she is, how funny she is, how incredible she is and I wish I could tell her how much she means to me in real life, because although I've never met her, I draw inspiration from her and I really want to be like her. Amber Liu, I love, respect and look up yo you more than I could possibly say.

Liked the video before it even come out because it's Amber. 😔

She was definitely waiting to release this song after she left SM. I'm so happy she finally got to release this song.

This sounds like it's supposed to show how her life was when she was still in SM and after hearing about Sulli last year and then listening to this made me cry so hard

bruh where is everyone... why they sleepin on amber? literally everything about this mv & song is amazing

This video tells us how they were held captive in the SM and that what we saw was actually a mask, and Amber took off her mask after she left the company. ♡

CONGRATS ON FINALLY ESCAPING SMT WOO

These lyrics run so deep and I honestly feel so emo knowing such a talented artist is gone. Rest In Peace Sulli. 😭😢😭😢

Amazing music. Amazing video. Amazing coreo. Amazing expression

I need a dance practice video... The dance, vocals, story and everything is so perfect 😍😳

The fact that she shows: • Girls being weighted • People being kept shut • Girls being aesthetically operated • People with masks, which do not let them show who they really are • How she breaks the chains at the end, representing her leaving SM It is really so powerful and this songs needs to be known. I am so glad she expresses how obscure the K-pop industry can be sometimes. Let's show our support to Amber. Fighting!

I discovered Amber today and GIRLLLL I’M OBSESSED

#WeLoveYouAmber #MeUsWithYou #MeUsSupportUAmber #StaySafeAmber

Amber do the things by herself that sm don't (can't) do. 💁💁💁 proud

It's easy. I already know it's about the darkside of kpop only in just less then 1 min

this needs a movie. HOLY CRICK THIS IS LIKE THE THINNING

See you in Atlanta Amber! Wooooo

[Verse 1] I am tested by these fools They’re telling me I’ve got nothing to lose They don’t see their eyes so blind In my heart I know that I am seeing the light [Pre-Chorus] Cause I am acting like it’s alright Walking circles trying to find Tell me why (tell me why) Tell me why (tell me why) I will keep saying that I don’t mind With these eyes that I am try to deny Tell me why I will be standing here [Chorus] With these hands Hands behind my back These hands These hands behind my back These hands Hands behind my back These hands won’t let me go [Verse 2] Don’t know where to turn them Trap inside them mess I am screaming Oh I am screaming yeah (Can somebody help me?) Can somebody help me? (Can somebody save me?) Can somebody save me? Anybody please Somebody set me free [Pre-Chorus] Cause I am acting like it’s alright Walking circles trying to find Tell me why (tell me why) Tell me why (tell me why) I will keep saying that I don’t mind With these eyes that I am try to deny Tell me why (Tell me why) I will be standing here [Chorus] With these hands Hands behind my back These hands These hands behind my back These hands Hands behind my back These hands won’t let me go [Bridge] I will keep acting like it’s alright Walking circles trying to find (No) I will keep saying that I don’t mind With these eyes that I am try to deny Please just tell me why (Please just tell me why) [Chorus] With these hands Hands behind my back These hands These hands behind my back These hands Hands behind my back With these hands won’t let you go I'm late but there are the lyrics because it's beautiful

My neighbors are going to enjoy this song for the next few days

She is so amazing and super cool...

I’m really happy she was singing here, her beautiful voice wasn’t utilized enough w fx

Amber already explained in her Instagram post about the meaning of this song, she said "This song goes out to everyone who feels trapped and alone. You're NOT alone. You can fight through anything but you have to WANT it. Believe and try. If you fall, get up and try again. Never give up on love and hope."

1. A mask that she has to put on and act 2. Weight control 3.Everything need to be in order even how she walk 4.When other try to leave and they give a waring sign 5. Diet control 6.Plastic surgery 7.Most importantly when u want to do sth there always something in the contract that holding you back

So talented! Wow 🤩 sending love!

KZfaq recommended this video to me and I'm so thankful it did. I didn't know Amber had such a beautiful voice. I really wish her the best, this song is amazing

Notice how at 0:24 they were 5 girls, then at 0:39 they were just 4... and then she went solo.

*I'm about to cry AMBER IS HAVING A COMEBACK* *_I REPEAT AMBER IS HAVING A COMEBACK_*

you guys who support her personally please watch this mv for thousand time. let the world to see amber still has loyal fans . this song deserves more likes and views!

Amber Liu; masking before it was a mandatory trend 😁

The story of Amber’s life trap within SM dungeon, the music and video is deliver beautifully 😢

First thing Amber does when she leaves... Shade SM with a song. 😂😂😂 I'll only thank SM for one thing... Recruiting her. (and all the artists we know today) heeey I recognize a dancer.(Hugh!)

I think this song is about how Sm mistreated her so much and not letting her to produce music or give her any chances but don’t worry Amber your always our star ⭐️

Amber Liu. The first time I ever saw you, it was through my older sister who was, and still is, absolutely obsessed with FX. I have been a K-Pop fan for about a decade now, but at this time, at least 5 years ago, I wasn’t acquainted with many groups. I saw the absolute glow in my sister’s eyes as she showed me endless FX music videos and talked about each member with such love and inspiration woven into each of her words. Since then, I have been a huge supporter and fan of FX, and I have grown alongside you during your most difficult and triumphant times. I know that you have been through a lot, and even saying that doesn’t even come to close to what you must have been feeling for the past several years. I know you have been in the business and making music for a very long time now, and I know you have experienced extreme tragedy as well as glorifying victories. I have never seen someone respond to any obstacles in the mature and hopeful manner that you have. That, as I’ve gotten to know more about you over the years, might be what I appreciated the most about you. I am so aware why so many people, including my sister who introduced me to you, are so inspired by you and desperate to follow in your footsteps. Amidst all of the pain you have felt, sacrifice you have made, and challenges you have faced, you continue to make barrier-breaking music and share your voice with the world through that music. Your response to the problems in the world is so wholesome, genuine and confident; and you have taught many around the world how to effectively recover from any pain they may have felt. It can be understood that you have gone through what many have not, and yet you have not given up on living out your dreams and encouraging others to follow in your footsteps. What has always stood out to me is that you have always been confident, and done what has been best for you, rather than listen to others. You always came off as so comfortable in your own skin, and that makes you such an iconic performer and musician. Your powerful and bold rapping, combined with your soulful, smooth, and energetic voice makes you an incredibly compassionate performer who is so connected to her audience and music on stage. You are an unbelievably beautiful dancer and have such a demanding stage presence that has been such a privilege for me to watch over these years. I know that your fans love you in a way that’s stronger than anybody else ever could. You have given them a reason not to give up trying when the worst happens to them, and there is no higher form of inspiration than that. I am proud to be one of these fans, and I know my sister is as well. Similarly, your members love you and have such an unbreakable bond with you that I have seen firsthand without even knowing any of you personally. I know that you have all relied on each other in such a way that most people can’t say they know or understood, and I can’t even speak on how unique your relationship is with one another. I can’t even thank you enough for coming into my life and showing me confidence, strength, and reliance on my passion, friends, and family in the darkest times in my life. You are an inspiration like no other, and I know all of the fans, and even those outside of them can recognize as such a once-in-a-lifetime authentic musician. On behalf of your friends, fans, members, and most importantly, your loving and adoring family, I wish you the most blessed birthday ever Amber. I hope nothing but love surrounds you and those close to you always and forever. Please stay safe, and I pray that you continue to live your life in such bliss as you do now and have always tried to. I absolutely love you so, so much, and Happy Birthday! I hope you have as much fun as you possibly can!

Amber's voice is just beautiful I could listen to it all the day and night without interruption

Amber said that is song about loneliness but i fell something abt kpop seriously

I hope every artist have the courage to tell what they feel, what bothers them, and do what they want to do . please be who you are, you are loved.

her songs really are addictive! and she is so cool, leaving SM and all of these awesome songs come out like BOOM, HERE I AM

It’s like the Get out movie. So happy that Amber did get out from the trash company! Yay go llama

Can we finally get some dance practice videos?!

Stay strong, Amber. Sending you love and prayers.

Message behind this song is .. thank you amber

This mv has such a deep meaning and story 😭.

Woah...the cinematography is DOPE! Damn im glad Amber has left SM.. "With this hand ill let you go.." and she did this is the content we all want for you Amber💕

When i read comment talked about views of this video. Amber talent speaks lounder than views tho. The most important is her happiness with her work. And support from her fans. Remind me of Shinee when they said now they only make music for their fans. They didnt care about the view etc. I think amber know work for her passion and her happiness. Its just the vibe that i got from watching this

I LOVE YOU AMBER LIU! !!!!!!

I’ve said it throughout f(x)’s career and I’m saying it again: Amber has the most BEAUTIFUL vocal timbre I’ve ever heard in my life!

Wow this is so deep and meaningful😔🙏🏽 I’m so glad Amber left SM 😩

Amber is Perfect!!!!!!💓💓💓💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Shit this has a powerful message and her voice just sound for emotional just so sincere I love this song

IF YOU DON’T LIKE THE WAY I COOK YOUR CARROTS & BREAD YOU COULD JUST TELL ME 👨🏻‍🌾

that final dance move was really powerful, damn. this is amazing ❤️

she's absolutely breathtaking how have I not seen her before

The music video is direceted Amber herself. Man, this is a very thoughful and mature work. She's so talented and smart. Can't believe how much she's learned and grown and keeps learning and growing along the way. Just like what she wrties in "Stay Calm", she'll keep running for her life.

2:56 made me think about her and fx being trapped inside of SM's "basement." It's probably how it must have felt like for them.

‘im tested by these fools’ such a FAT mood LOL

Stop sleeping on Amber!!! Stan her talent!!!

I love her

After she left SM, her visuals,vocal had been shown so beautifully. Can you imagine Amber and Tiffany Young collaborate together? It will be a dream . Like if you want that to happen :))

I am crying. Llama u did a really good job! Always support u (Purple Heart here)

amber is so cool

Stay Strong Amber 😢
