Alessia Cara - Here (Official Video)

Dr. Edward Richtofen:

As an introvert, I appreciate songs like this. 21, in college, and every weekend, I get invited to parties by friends and others. Yet, I always say no. I rather stay in my dorm, listening to music, playing video games, or browsing the internet.

Stephanie D:

This is such an incredible song and exactly how I felt through my whole 20s. Very soulful, can’t stand the drunks.

Kessy Rose:

Her debut song slapped so hard, we should have hyped her up the same way we did Olivia Rodriguo, she is so underrated

IRS:

It’s like we enjoyed so many of these kinda songs when we were younger but as we grow older we truly begin to understand and relate to the lyrics

Sam Bell:

This song popped in my head completely out of the blue, must be 3-4 years since i've heard this. I feel ashamed I forgot all about this masterpiece.

Someone U don't know:

alessia cara is so underrated, she deserves a lot more, this song really was a hit when i was 10 and now i understand why

Marisel Ramos:

1/2022 - still love this song. And loving her latest album even more. Love the sound of her voice. Soulful 🥰🙏🏽

Lyrics:

I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
Or I'm not listenin' or I'm indifferent
Truly, I ain't got no business here
But since my friends are here, I just came to kick it
But really I would rather be at home all by myself not in this room
With people who don't even care about my well being
I don't dance, don't ask, I don't need a boyfriend
So you can go back, please enjoy your party
I'll be here
Somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana
With this boy who's hollering, I can hardly hear
Over this music I don't listen to and I don't wanna get with you
So tell my friends that I'll be over here

Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
Oh, I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here

Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
An anti-social pessimist, but usually I don't mess with this
And I know you mean only the best
And your intentions aren't to bother me
But honestly I'd rather be
Somewhere with my people we can kick it and just listen
To some music with the message (like we usually do)
And we'll discuss our big dreams
How we plan to take over the planet
So pardon my manners, I hope you'll understand
That I'll be here
Not there in the kitchen with the girl
Who's always gossiping about her friends
So tell them I'll be here
Right next to the boy who's throwing up
'Cause he can't take what's in his cup no more
Oh God, why am I here?

Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
Oh, I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here

Hours later congregating next to the refrigerator
Some girl's talking 'bout her haters
She ain't got none
How did it ever come to this
I shoulda never come to this
So holla at me, I'll be in the car when you're done
I'm standoffish, don't want what you're offering
And I'm done talking
Awfully sad it had to be that way
So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready
And I'm standing by the TV with my beanie low
Yo, I'll be over here

Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
Oh, I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here

ChinzTv:

In 2022, this song is still a masterpiece. I remember first hearing this in 2015 having it on repeat 🔥🔥👏🏾
Great Work Alessia 💯

TheNewgreatlife:

This song is a beautifully perfect example of the direction R&B should have gone more from the 2010s to today. This song and her vocals are soulful and neither the song nor the subject material is boring. I love her even more now that she sings the theme song to Blade Runner: Black Lotus on Adult Swim/Toonami.

Magae Tshwanela:

Don't worry,you're not alone listening to this masterpiece in 2021.

Arthur Soto:

I remember hearing this song when it first came out ij 2015 thinking "this singer's going to make it big!"

I'm really glad she did!

johnny depp is innocent:

This girl was my childhood and now that im coming back to her i still love her AHHH

Peter Rundev:

Thank you, Alessia! I've listened to this tune more than anyone else. I follow your path and start with covers and cinematic videos for them. I love piano instrument. You understand music ❤️

Aiyana Akna Abra:

This song is so Powerful Great example to children especially teens my children love ❤ this song alot. Thus song was in my generation growing up & eye love 😻 it still do am proud of her for releasing this song letting teens know just to be themselves and don't have to feel pressured by others who allow themselves to be pressured by the norms if society and its still happening this song stands for all time 🥰

Maria Fernanda Ferreira:

5 years after, and I'm still here

Kennedy Alexa:

This was my theme song in high school. I was so antisocial. And I cry listening to this song and looking back because I have evolved into a grown social butterfly. This song made me feel like I wasn’t alone.

karla:

uma das minhas músicas favoritas desse mundo inteirinho 🌎 ❤

Vanessa Tavarez:

😍😍Falling in love with this song day by day when I discovered alessia this was my first favorite song about her and happy 7 years to here since its next week we love you girl supporting you no matter what 🥰🥰💖💖

Yasuke:

If you’re listening to this in 2021 , respect .

TheYogina:

After decades of going out, I sooooooo know what she is talking about in this song. Deep!

It’s Just Imani:

Brunno Ferreira:

Está música marcou a minha adolescência! Todas as musicas da Alessia alias😍❤Me descreviam completamente. Mas essa tenho um carinho especial, sendo a primeira que ouvi e que me fez conhecer uma cantora maravilhosa e musicas incríveis! E que fez uma grande diferença na minha adolescência, tornando-a mais especial e menos tensa, em muitos momentos..❣

Chunky Medicine:

When I was in Middle school, this was just a fun happy song...
...Now re-listening to it... I've never related to anything more in my life.

Sayo:

Still listening in 2022. this song is a masterpiece and it gives me so much nostalgia of 2015

Isabella Williams:

This comment is gonna get buried, but I still just wanted to come back to this video and say that I remember when it first came out and I didn't appreciate it enough. I didn't appreciate a lot of this music enough because it was the last era of music that was truly genuine and actual art. I thought most of it was somewhat stupid even though I really liked this song and I wish music like this would be mainstream again. ❤❤❤

Stephanie Bensen:

This song speaks to my soul ✨💗 You have an amazing voice Alessia. Thank you 🙏

Brandon E:

Timeless music. This is the definition of a transcendent masterpiece!

Mary Santos:
