🎶 Stream “Notion”
🚨 The Song That Refused to Stay Underground
Originally dropped 7 years ago, “Notion” was a low-key masterpiece that quietly sat in the shadows… until TikTok came along and turned it into an anthem for existential teens and nostalgic 20-somethings alike. Now it’s the song you throw on when you’re reflecting, pacing your room, or just vibing with your thoughts too hard.
🧠 Lyrics That Make You Stop Scrolling
“Sure it’s a calming notion, perpetual in motion / But I don’t need the comfort of any lies…”
The lyrics are deep but accessible, like someone cracked open a philosophy book and then turned it into indie rock. It’s not preachy, it’s not edgy — it’s just real.
No fake comfort, no over-explained drama — just “this is how it feels.”
🎬 The Music Video = Chaos + Cult + Art
Directed by Mike Canale and produced by TEGMENTAL, the video feels like you’re watching a cult get baptized in strange indie energy. There’s a storyline — but half the comments are like:
“Everyone: wow, this song is amazing. Me: WHAT is going on in this video?”
– @suducktivedits9451
Exactly.
It’s symbolic. Or weird. Or both. But somehow, it fits the song perfectly.
💬 What the Comments Say (and Why They Matter)
The YouTube comment section on Notion deserves its own award. People come back year after year to feel something again. Check these out:
“This song feels like a combo of both sadness and euphoria at the same time.” – @Pravesh_Joestar
“We don’t search for old songs… we search for old memories.” – @raymondramos3060
“I lost a close friend this week… This song helps me understand that I have to live no matter what.” – @journe2272
It’s become more than just a track. It’s a time capsule.
📈 Why It Blew Up
Because truth doesn’t age, and TikTok eventually caught on.
Because that guitar riff lives rent-free in your head.
Because sometimes, all it takes is one late-night scroll and a perfectly timed soundbite to hit you with:
“Would your life even matter anymore?”
🧭 Final Word
“Notion” is one of those rare songs (pun intended) that grows with you. Whether you found it in 2017 or last week, it speaks the same truth:
Live while you can, feel what’s real, and don’t settle for numbness.
So if you’re ever feeling lost in the noise, play this one.
And like one YouTube user said:
“You searched this on your own. The algorithm didn’t give it to you. Good job.”
