I found out I was bisexual when I was around eleven and the first person I came out to was my mum at age twelve, asking her if she would support me or not. I didn't have a proper reason as to why I felt this way, but I knew I had an intense liking to the same sex. So when she asked me why I asked, I said I liked girls more than I should. She told my dad, and in which he said "no you're not, I'm having grand kids," which honestly confused me? I didn't understand his reasoning... My brother was in denial, as well, saying "no you're not" to every time I would say I was bi around the house. Then I became a tad bit older and had an argument with my mom because she said I was too young to even think about this. The most emotional thing I've ever said to her was "If I had a choice, I wouldn't be this way." I even thought of doing absolutely awful things to myself; but eventually, after years to come, I finally succeeded in my fight for love and support from my family. My mom looked at me with the most loving eyes ever during a song about lgbtq+ at a concert, my dad got me a "why is straight the default?" Shirt, and my brother even talks about cute girls with me. I'm not out to most people because honestly, I'm afraid I have to go through this emotional angst. I'm afraid that once I'm out my title will be "confused girl." I know I like girls, I know I love girls. Just as much as I love everyone else. I hope if someone reads this they know that, even if their parents aren't as open to this idea, it gets easier. There are people you will meet or know that will love, appreciate, and accept you!! Also, I know this is a very long and personal story I'm sharing on the YouTube comment section, but I feel very connected to this song and I'm grateful one was created about this topic. I'm also very emotional rn

edit: wow, I didn't believe I would receive this much support, but I thank you guys so so much. It really makes my days and nights reading these comments.

reading my old message on here is so strange. I'm out to my mom now, it went fine, I'm out to my siblings too (one of whom came out as trans recently!).

@Leah Im 14 too and im into girls and coming out to my family was terrifying im very happy other people are finding acception. I have only been treated like scum by people ive dated so its hard for me to trust anyone anymore, but when I came out to my mom its cause she found a letter to a girl at my school, telling her I liked her

this made my cry
i really needed to hear something like this
thank you so much

this made my cry
i really needed to hear something like this
thank you so much

same! i feel like when i came out to my mom, which didn't go well at all, i didn't have any proper reasons to give her other than things i was too embarrassed to say, ya know? like i felt so lost for words at the question "why do you think you're gay" because its like lol because i'm like attracted to girls. and the like "proof" was not something i felt comfortable sharing, especially because my coming out was not on my terms or a good situation.

My story is kinda like ur but mine didn't have a happy ending my parents are still saying that I am not a lesbian,but I listen to this song to make me happy but what really makes me happy is that I see people with happy ending of coming out it makes me feel happy that they are not hurting like me

But I have a supportive friends with me :)

This is so pure. I tried coming out to my mum at 12 but she said "You're to young, It's a trend, you blush around boys." She said I wasn't aloud to talk about anything to do with "the gays" and if I did I'd get in trouble. So that's fun.

This made me cry a little harder than the song did haha. I myself am bi, and it was really hard coming out to my family and friends, and I went through a very emotional time. I had support from everyone except myself at one point. <br>You have such an inspiring story 🙂

I figured it out pretty late that I'm pansexual... (Just last year, at 19) I'm out to my friends and kinda my parents, but that last bit didn't go too smoothly... They love me anyway, but made me kinda make a deal with them to not date girls or trans-people.... Because "why can't you just choose to be with cis boys since you like them too?". They are less open-minded than they (and I) thought they were, and in addition they are afraid that me coming out as queer would create issues with other parts of the familiy... Like my grandparents or my (sadly) quite homophobic and transphobic big brother...
At least my friends don't care and I can talk about it with them and also I can go to the pride parade and stuff with the excuse of being an ally to my queer friends.
(Also kissing some cute girl at a party or smth shouldn't be any problem since what they don't know won't hurt 'em :P And that'd be like the couple of casual hookups I've had with boys before).

if you have a girlfriend/ boyfriend and can't have kids but want to you can adopt  <b>thumbs up</b> (i cant do emojis)

Scribble Scrabble my mom won’t accept that I’m bi. She tells me that I’m straight cuz I’m in a straight passing relationship, and she says that “yeah well when you date a girl you can be gay. You don’t need a fancy fucking word for it” and She’s implied that I’m confused.

This is exactly how my life went (except I have no siblings) and is going even now! Same age at the time and everything! Just went to a dodie concert and am reliving all of her songs again, this being one of them, and knowing how my parents reacted to rainbow and she. Love is beautiful when it's done right, lgbt+, family, friends... love is love right?

I think they're beginning to finally understand, I'm pushing through til they fully realise. I've got a PATD concert coming up too, hopefully girls/girls/boys will break through enough? :)

You made me cry. Thanks for sharing your story🥰

You made me cry. Thanks for sharing your story🥰

Thank you for sharing and providing some hope. I've come out to my mom 4 times as bisexual and each time she has simply refused, I feel trapped and I usually have a very strong relationship with her so it just really hurts. Thank you, a million times over for just your bravery sharing and your kindness to be helping others now. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. I hope you day is spectacular and just, thank you. I'm currently in a hidden lgbt relationship and both me and my girlfriend needed this.

coolio hannah I’m around the same age, and pretty sure (again, pretty sure)  I’m straight, but I hope one day you can be yourself and come out 💖

this made me so happy omg. so happy for you. :)

The title "Confused girl" that you mentioned really speaks to me. I don't say anything about my sexuality except to my very close friends because I feel like if anyone knew, they would see my label, not who I am, and I would change in their eyes. So not even my family knows... but you're story really has helped me, so thank you.

We both can do this :)

Scribble Scrabble reading this comment and listening to the song simultaneously is absolutely beautiful and emotional

I am 11 now
O wow I named myself a croissant
I found out that I am bisexual too this year :)

Scribble Scrabble wow that is very powerful I feel so sorry for  you and I have a message which is don't be afraid to be who you are inside you are beautiful and all you need is the right person to see that

No matter what happens if you come out or not always remember you are you, to come out so early is so brave of you, no matter what what people say ignore them, yo are beautiful and no one will ever change that about you. Stay bright as confident in who you are <br>    - a random person who is the B in lgbtq+

My mom doesn't support me being bi, so it's heartwarming to read your comment. I appreciate your story so much. I hope that one day my mom will be alright with that part of me, or hopefully even be supportive like your parents support you. I'm beyond happy for you. :)

Scribble Scrabble   I'm so happy for you that your family accepted you for who you are. that story made me smile. hope you're having an awesome day, whoever you are :)

bi too! found out what i was as young as you. haven't come out since my parents are homophobic and i am scared they'll kick me out or tell me it's a phase + i dont have a plan B. hopefully your family gets more supportive by the day! x

Im Bi too, and I feel you, actually, I am not out to my parents because i am scared of their reactions. But i am really proud of you to fight for who you are. And im proud of myself for being out to my friends. I hope you have a good day!<br>Love <3

Last First Hey, it's going to be okay whether they support you or not...There will be times where it hurts, but then there will be times where you can realize that there are so many more people on this Earth who root for you and will be there with you every step of the way. I support you if you're in the LGBTQ+ community or not.

xXTheHowlingWolfXx Thank you, seriously. That makes me very grateful someone knows what I'm going through, and I really do root for you too.

a dumpster Thank you so much, that means the world to me :))

Rory As long as she's supportive, that's great. I'm super happy for you and I know it's a wonderful feeling to figure yourself out. Also, I am so sorry for the late reply haha

Rory yeah I came out at school and my whole grade knew I was gay. home was very different

Rory yeah I came out at school and my whole grade knew I was gay. home was very different

i'm so happy for you!! i'm still exploring my identity, but i know my parents are homophobic so i'm worried that if i find out i'm bi they won't approve of me.

Scribble Scrabble you just wrote my life story as well as your own, do not listen to what they say. You are you. No one can tell you otherwise. I'm rooting for you💕

and the we wee-wee sneeze I hope you'll be able to do it eventually :)) I'm proud of you!

Leah R-G I know how hard it must be, for a parent to not properly understand; but I believe you and your brother are so strong and you most definitely will receive support from someone, even if it's not your mother(which I seriously hope she does support you)! I'm so happy my experience did something to help and I hope you to stay strong through it when you do decide to come out to your mum. I know I don't know you personally but I wish for the best things to happen to you and every other good person that has some sort of struggle in their life because they deserve what's good in the world. I'm so proud of you, and I wish the best of luck to you.

Natalia Valencia thank you, I'm so glad :) it was very emotional for me throughout the years but I'm so so grateful

Natalia Valencia thank you, I'm so glad :) it was very emotional for me throughout the years but I'm so so grateful

Thank you so much for sharing, that was so incredible of you. I'd like to share my own story, if that's alright.

My brother has been out as pansexual to my family for two years. Everyone in my family but me. He would've come out to me too, but my mom stopped him. Even though my mom calls herself an ally, she didn't want me to know because she was worried he would "taint" me. Well, sometime about a year ago, around when he came out to me, I discovered that I was bisexual. His pansexuality didn't affect me in any way, I know it's just who I am. I'm only out to a few close friends and terrified to come out to my mom. I know she would eventually accept me, but probably not at first. She thinks kids shouldn't know about lgbtq+ stuff and even though I'm 14, she'd probably think I'm too young to know. I know I'll have to face my fears some day, but I don't see it anytime soon.

Your story inspired me and hopefully, if she doesn't fully accept me at first, she'll come around.

Stay proud❤🧡💛💚💙💜💗🏳🌈

Scribble Scrabble this actually brought me to happy tears

Scribble Scrabble this actually brought me to happy tears

I am so, so, proud of you. I know it's really hard to figure yourself out and you managed to, which I think is inspiring! I'm also very sorry to hear about your experiences, that must be awful..But I believe that you are so strong and people are going to love and support you, because you deserve so much more. I'm very happy for you, and the man you're with is very lucky :)

Hi :) I'm proud of you! I'm 24 and once when I was like 8 I tearfully told my mom I thought I was gay and she laughed and said I wasn't because I had always liked boys. I didn't know bi was even a thing for a really long time. Since my mom told me I wasn't, and as I grew up I saw so much homophobia around me, I struggled and thought something was just wrong with me. After a reeeaaallly long time, I finally realized that that really is a part of me, and isn't anything wrong. I'm in a committed relationship with a man now (who knows I'm bi), so I don't really think I'll ever end up coming out to my family. I think it's awesome you did and your family finally understood.


the first time I listened to this I thought it was such a cute song. now, when I sing it... I cried. this song has so much feeling in it that I can't even put it into words. what I can say though is, Thank you. Thank you Dodie, for existing in this world to bring such beautiful music like this. You are truly a gift.


I just came out today after 21 years of being in denial. This song helped me a lot through the process, thank you Dodie x


Hey Dodie, you probably won't see this in all the comments, but I'd just like to thank you for always being a huge inspiration for the music that I create. Every time I listen to one of your songs, I always get in the mood to write, and I always look forward to your wordplay. Thanks for being you.


What I'm wondering is, why in the world is this not on Spotify?


it’s crazy to think that this was a year ago!! happy pride 2020 everyone 💕 stay safe


“To say that im a rainbow”
“To tell me that I’m bright”
“When I’m so used to feeling wrong”
“Well it makes me feel right”

I might cry this hits home so hard. I’m so used to hear my family talk about gay people like they are some kind of plight when I’m in the closet myself and its kind of been drilled into me, but i also have a strong sense of pride for who i am and I’m always conflicted and confused. But when i see rainbows or the flag i get reminded that i am a beautiful messy cacophony of colours and even though I’m confused and kind of scared, that’s ok. God this song is so perfect.


this is such a beautiful and heartwarming song. thank you.


idk if you will ever even see this, but you and your music are the reason i came out as bi today... some people were super accepting but there were some people that were, um, not accepting. so i came back here and listened to your music and it helped me and i love you sm thank you for helping me through❤


I remember sobbing with the release of this video & here I am over a year later doing the same thing,, this song just really hits That Spot in my soul


but to say that i’m a 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗯𝗼𝘄
to tell me that i’m 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁
when i’m so used to feeling wrong
well it makes me feel 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁
🌈✨


“How can I be proud of, what a million people shout at me I’m not?”<br>Wow.... That really stabbed me. Thank you for this beautiful song, Dodie. ❤

“How can I be proud of, what a million people shout at me I’m not?”
Wow.... That really stabbed me. Thank you for this beautiful song, Dodie. ❤


i've never gotten this emotional over a song during pride.


I am just very confused and spooked, I've had really severe girl crushes, but I can't imagine myself dating a girl. auuaghegehgugghhhhhhh I don't know what to call myself, to quote my all time favourite vine "smash that like button if you're gay but not gay enough"

Noodle Arms bi-romantic in the words of dodie 🤪

I totally understand you, that’s how I thought when I was first beginning to question my sexuality. Now I would rather date a girl tho, so just wait a bit and things might figure themselves out (I’m bi btw)

Hey that's ok! Maybe what you're looking for is something-romantic? That means that you are attracted to someone but not in a sexual way, and sorry I'm not that good at explaining but there are so many websites that you can search it up on! And always remember that you don't have to even give yourself a label because they can get confusing at times haha

Noodle Arms you don’t have to label yourself if that’s not comfortable for you! If you want to come out, just come out as you, not your label.

Noodle Arms yesss we can be confused little gay beans together

Noodle Arms I mean it’s ok to not fully understand yet I’m so confused as to what I am because iv liked boys but can never stay liking them for long,while I also imagine myself dating a girl but have never actually experienced that type of relationship but I can relate i feel kinda gay but not gay enough to be considered gay


I'm autistic and a lot in this song speaks to me as well, one of the symbols for autism is a rainbow infinity sign, so I just wanted to say your song touched more than the lgbtq+ community, thank you.


last day of pride and we ending with a banger from our bi icon


Dodie this is such a powerful piece of music you have written. Thank you. You should be so, so, so proud of this!


this just shows how perfectly dodie is able to write about her feelings in such a beautiful way! i'm so proud to support such a talented person <3


who's here after the teaser was released😭 the moment is finally here guys were getting a studio version🌈


“but my title just talks over me, i never even asked to be this way.” god, i wish more people understood that.


“When I’m so used to feeling wrong but it makes me feel alright” ya okay it’s only 7pm and my gay ass is crying in my room thanks

Lyndsey B snap, im crying in my room at 1:54 am


I don’t know why (maybe I’m just extra depressed tonight) but I’ve listened to this a million times now and tonight I’m sobbing like a baby. I love you so much dodie and just know that these are happy tears! Keep being a great person because you totally are!!


This is relatable in every way possible to me


this song speaks to me on an emotional level

catch me cryin in my room to this song aNY TIME

dodie just KNOWS how to convey empathy in all of her music; it’s beautiful.


❤💜💙 DODIE I FUCKING LOVE YOU IM HOMOROMANTIC AND ASEXUAL YASSS IM SO HAPPY THAT YOURE IN THE CONMUNITY❤💜💙


Last night was Dodie's show in Paris.
I was there, singing songs that I loved with people that finally knew Dodie as well as me, and we all sang the lyrics together, in harmony...
She said she wasn't feeling well that night, that's why she took some time before coming on stage : it hit me, to realize that even her knowing we came for her couldn't erase her bad times and feeling low...
She sang 6/10, and we could tell she was meaning every word in it.
I couldn't stand it, I had to do something. So at the end of the song, we all clapped, and there was a moment before she started to speak again. I shouted with all my heart "WE LOVE YOU !!!!!!", and I heard her sweet laughter, that meant she heard me and was touched by the gesture. And right after that, the whole crowd shouted "YEAH WE LOVE YOU !!!!!" and she smiled and smiled.
I was so releaved to see her smile, and happy that other people were feeling the same way...
I'm not saying that we healed her bad mental state that night, but at least we had a chance to say that we were supporting her no matter what, and we would always love her.


i just want to say i've listened to this song a million times and i know it's about the lbgtq community but i can say i relate to it with depression. this is a beautiful song and your voice is amazing. thank you for this song.


Yeah this song was very supportive so I told my friends I'm pan which is good thank you for this and making people positive


Me and my girlfriend vibe and cry to this together, bonding over the difficulty of being gay (I'm not able to come out to my family)<br>I'm so glad she's there for me and I love her a lot <3

i need a single version of this so i can repeat it over and over on spotify D;


‘How could I be proud of what a million people shout at me I’m not’ is something that crosses my mind way too often. <br>‘But to say that I’m a rainbow’ always follows closely behind❤

‘How could I be proud of what a million people shout at me I’m not’ is something that crosses my mind way too often.
‘But to say that I’m a rainbow’ always follows closely behind❤


Seeing this song live was such an experience. People holding up pride flags. Everyone quiet for a moment, and the vibe at that moment immediately changed. It wasn’t as upbeat, but we were just all soaking in the goddamn gayness right before She. And damn man


Please put this on your next album I’m just listening on repeat and cry


When I’m so used to feeling wrong,
well it makes me feel alright

When I’m so used to feeling wrong,
*well it makes me feel alright*


I love this and its definitely helping me try and tell my parents that im a fellow bisexual


here after she announced the version of rainbow for her new album... when i first listened to this song i didnt realize just how gay i really were, and i still very much saw myself as "just an ally".... i am so excited that i get to listen to this song as a revamped version while being true to myself about my sexuality... thank you, dodie.🌈🌈🌈

Have you SEEN the new video? I love when we see her facing her reflection in the cars window,spattered with rain


That was so beautiful.   You have a wonderful voice


“i was brought up in a line” really hits me because i was raised mormon and for so long i felt wrong and sinful because of this part of who i am


As pride month comes to a close, we're blessed by this lovely song by our lovely Dodie ❤❤❤🏳🌈
Happy Pride Month ,my love
You're amazing and a beautiful rainbow🌈🌈🌈❤❤❤❤❤


I had to defend my friend the other day because I was talking about her girlfriend and then my mum said something like 'but this is probably just a phase, because everyone goes through them' and I explained to her how she was gay and has been since year 6 and I truly believe this isn't 'just a phase'. My mum is very supportive of LGBT though I think she's just not used to people this young coming out.


"Its getting hard to navigate, when every map was never made for me" How my life feels sometimes. Where in the world is my piece of gold?


This song gave me chills all over I love dodie so much


coming back to this after reading that two Supreme Court judges called for taking away marriage equality. I am hoping things will be okay


“my title just talks over me” hits me SO HARD. i’ve stopped using labels recently bc i’ve been going through a lot of identity troubles and changed the way i think about myself, as well as the words I used to convey that identity. one friend in particular (who i wouldn’t consider myself friends with anymore and who has never been especially supportive) has been giving me shit about “changing my sexuality” and essentially blaming me for lying about it. she’s told me things like “i never believed you were asexual anyway” (despite us having several conversations abt it and me still identifying somewhere on the ace spectrum), “you have to have had a crush on a girl to be bisexual”, and “i think you’re just confused”, as well as outing me and saying things I had told her in confidence to people i was still becoming friends with. I’ve felt for a little while now that she always saw me through the lens of whatever I had told her instead of viewing my sexuality for what it was—a growing, changing, fluid identity—and her telling others about it almost immediately after i had started to become friends with them made me feel like I wasn’t being given a chance to show them my personality before my sexuality. my title just talked over me.

to everyone struggling with an identity, to everyone who doesn’t like labels, to everyone who knows what it feels like to have their sexuality seen before themselves—happy pride. June may be over, but pride never ends.

holy shit, you guys. i never expected this to resonate with so many people. thank you for the outpouring of support and know that I’m always out here, supporting you too. if you’re dealing with a situation like mine, i can promise that it does get better. I found friends who genuinely love and support me and who accept me as i am, fluid identity and all. stay strong and stay proud.

Natalie Your comment is heartbreaking T.T. Love to everyone ❤💙

That lyric hit me hard too. People want to know what I call myself so they can put me in a box. It makes it really hard to articulate my experience.

Natalie I relate to this so much. I'm extremely confused w my sexuality, and I used to be pretty confident about it a year ago or so..but recently I have no idea if I'm attracted to girls or boys or both or other and I'm struggling so much w that atm. I say that I'm gay, but I'm honestly just scared that if I say that I'm attracted to girls, etc then I'll get hate for it and wouldn't be viewed the same way I was when everyone knew me as gay. I'm so post within my identity at the moment, and it really makes me anxious and mad at myself bc I want to figure it out. I want to be sure. I want to know who I am and what I like..I feel like everyone will drop a hate bomb automatically if I say that I don't I'm gay anymore bc I don't wanna be that person that changes their sexuality every 5 minutes.. I've changed my sexuality like 272827827 times already, I just want to find myself and it's extremely hard for me..so I just decide not to label myself at all and just be attracted to whoever I find attractive ig. Idk what the point of this was but y e a h

i love the "june may be over, but pride never ends"<br>(also, be strong💗 and this friend is definitely not the kind of person you want to be friends with... i'm so sorry)

i love the "june may be over, but pride never ends"
(also, be strong💗 and this friend is definitely not the kind of person you want to be friends with... i'm so sorry)

JustBeingCelinda oh I didn't take it as rude at all don't worry!
abrosexualty is (and don't take my explanation as the correct one- Ash hardell made a video that explained it much better than I'm about to.) when someone can feel straight one day and then ace the next and then really really gay the next. And there's different intensities of feeling romantic as well. Like, right now I'm just kind of low key gay but sometimes I'm really really homosexual.
Sorry for the horrid explanation >∆<

Natalie
Jeez, your comment hit me harder than the song itself and brought out some little feelings I often think about but push away.

I personally identify as abrosexual. Mostly because it's more acceptable to have a far out label than none at all. I don't feel it should be that way though... I just want to be able to be in love without having to slap a "hello my name is ____" sticker on my gender and sexuality.


its so nice to see the original video after the songs been released <33


It reminds me of one of those wonderful Disney songs, without the excessive orchestral work. Like Coco’s ‘remember me’ .Very beautiful❤.


Please put this in your Spotify soon because WiFi is spotty! I love you a lot


thank you. thank you for this. I didn’t know I needed this until I heard it.


she bacc
she a snacc
but most importantly
she made me cry ily dodie ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Inés Santamarina learnt from the best @doodleoodle

I dont know what made me smile more: the comment or your icon


How can this song manage to make me cry multiple times


Chords.. kinda
So Dodie has it tuned differently, which I just found by ear, so I don't know what it's tuned to since I'm no proffesional. The chords (once tuned differently) are G, Em, and then you slide your ring finger down two phrets (idk that chord)
So basically, the progression is to slide your fingers up and down the second string 2 phrets apart.

Hope that was sort of helpful?
I just did all this by ear and watching her fingers.


this was posted in the summer. summer was so nice. summer was so beautiful. i always wish i could go back. that’s one thing me and dodie have in common.


I love reading the comments on these videos. There's just so much love and support 💕🏳🌈


When I was 9 years old, I had my first crush. I didn't realize it at first, because it was on my best friend who was female. I remember fawning over her and following her everywhere, and it took me so long to realize I saw her in a different light than everyone else.

When I was 10 years old, I texted my best friend, whilst crying, telling her I was bi. She told me she would still be my friend and that she always wanted a bi friend.

When I was 11 years old, I was hit with the first slur ever. "Fag," I was called on the bus. I cried myself to sleep that night, refusing to tell my parents what happened.

When I was 12 years old, I realized I never had real crushes on boys and that they were all faked because I liked to fit in with my friends. Whenever they had a crush on someone, I had a "crush" on them too.

When I was 13 years old, I told my friend the reason why I wasn't going to prom was because I was gay and had no one to go with. She offered to go with me, and since then we're best friends.

Now I'm 14 years old, and I'm going to come out to my parents tomorrow before I leave for camp. I've withheld this secret for 5 years and I can't keep it in any longer. I know they will love me for who I am, but it just means so much to me that they'll see me the same way the next day. Wish me luck 💕🏳🌈

Edit: Thank you all for your kind words💕 All of your comments mean so much to me, and I managed to build up enough strength to come out to my mother before leaving. I asked her if I could tell her a secret while hugging her goodbye, she said sure, and I said "I like girls." She smiled and said "okay." I'm numb with happiness, and once my dad drops me off I'm going to come out to him too. Once I come back from camp I'll comment what he said for those curious. I love you all so much and I wish you have a good day💕💕💕

you go girl, you have an awesome time at camp :)

Girl, i complete understand. You are so strong and don't you EVER take shit from nobody because you have an entire community behind you. Even if your parents do not accept you, that is their problem, and not yours.

Good luck! You are brave and you shouldn't have to hide a part of your identity from your parents. I hope they support you completely. 🏳🌈

You beautiful soul! Best wishes for everything. You're not alone ❤💛💚💙💜

GITD Stars You can do it!!!! You're so brave

Wow I'm so proud of you! You're so brave, best of luck sweetie! 💜💛💚💙❤

Good luck hun! It’s a very brave thing to do! Love ya

GITD Stars you go girl! I know it’s hard coming out so we’re proud of you! 🏳🌈

GITD Stars Good luck hope everything goes well ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Your story made me cry oml I give you so so much luck. Have all of it.

im so proud of you! i hope all goes well hun 💕

good luck honey, we're all here for you 🌈💕💕

good luck with coming out, it can be really hard sometimes and it's really brave of you to finally think it's time to tell them. I know I'm just a stranger on youtube, but you have my full support 💛💛💛💛 also wow a lot of your comment is v relatable


Such a beautiful song. Tears came and so did goosebumps. You're one talented human ❤


This is an amazing song and i can relate so much! Also 'i was brought up in a line'...LYRICAL GENIUS


Is it possible to get through this song without crying?

Thank you so much for this song dodie <3 it means a lot


Thank you Dodie. <br>I'll definitely listen to this on my "coming to terms" playlist for days when I feel unnatural and wrong. It'll get me through a lot of nights

Thank you Dodie.
I'll definitely listen to this on my "coming to terms" playlist for days when I feel unnatural and wrong. It'll get me through a lot of nights

xWarriorOfLegendx a “coming to terms” playlist is such a good idea and this song fits right into it! I’m just gonna steal your idea if that’s fine.


A perfect song doesn’t exist—

listens to this song

cries in gay

A perfect song doesn’t exist—

*listens to this song*

*cries in gay*

Brielle Anuario “cries in gay” best thing i’ve heard all week lmaoo


okay who else is pretty sure this is the song getting released on friday :o


Waiting for dodie to post a new video for pride month but honestly I’d listen to this song forever and feel pride for myself and for everyone else


As a lesbian who is in a relationship, this song hit me so hard. It brought me back to walking in the hallway holding my girlfriend’s hand and hearing guys shout harassing comments at us, and seeing people lean over to each other and whisper about us. I’ll post stuff on my social media about how proud I am of my sexuality, and then I get shot down by some homophobic kid that goes to my school who doesn’t think I have the right to live. Thank you for this song, because it perfectly sums up what it’s like to be lgbtq+.


I’m bisexual. And I am so, so, so lucky. I have a family who supports me 100%. I have friends who love me for who I am. I know some people go through horrible times, so I  very grateful for the amount of support I receive.


I demand to marry this song

For real though dodie, the message of this song is so important, the lyrics are beautiful and your voice sounds amazing with this. I'm crying but also so happy that you're bringing attention to such an important topic through this FANTASTIC song
Thank you


When I’m so used to feeling wrong, it makes me feel all right”. YES. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING HOW IMPORTANT PRIDE IS


This is amazing!! I really love the lyrics and the ukulele is awesome! Thank you so much for writing this, Dodie <3


I’m a straight ally, this song is beautiful and I’m not a rainbow but I’ll be the sky to hold the rainbow up when needed❤❤ 🏳🌈🏳🌈


this song makes me feel good bc a lot of the time i forget that being me is a good thing so hearing you say it abt yourself reminds me to be good to myself


First two lines got me grinning with tears in my eyes


This crushed my heart, I don't know how you do it every time dodie but jezz I could listen to your songs for eternity🌈💕 you're such a precious human


i just told my parents i'm bi... i'm feeling kinda numb, but this song makes me happy that i no longer have secrets to hide from them


People who are here after seeing this on the new album so proud


"How can i be proud of what a million people shout at me im not" Geez that hits hard


i’m not a part of the lgbtq+ community (well i’m an ally) but this song made me cry. i hate that people feel so hopeless and disregarded just because they found who they are. no one deserves that. you are you. be proud of it. i admire all of your strength and it is never time to give up💜💜

My sis is bi. I love her with all my heart. It hurts me that she has to hide her secret from certain people. That's not right. Things need to change. This is coming from a straight white guy.

a couple of my friends, and even my brother (trans girl-boy) are lgbtq in some way...i cant outright fight for them, much to my dismay, but i know i can do little things that could help them in the future.

no one deserves to feel dirty because of who they love. i’m so proud of everyone in the lgbtq+ community!! the world just needs more love. 💕🌈

<i>alissa</i> Same, all my friends are gay, and in a way I feel like I'm on the journey with them. I'm always there for comfort and support all the time, and that's the best I can do for them.

I love this,  I can relate to this, and Dodie Clark is one of my favorite humans and there are only 5 of those


Dodie i hope you know how incredible important this song is for me and so many people of the community  love u


when u know what the teaser is 😌i feel proud


omg omg omg wait... I see what you did! hello everyone from the new version of this song! I hope you are all doing well🌈🥺✨


Im gonna get this whole song tattooed on me i swear to god.


How is this ukulele tuned? This sounds beautiful❤


It's been two years, but i still come back to this regularly and just cry

it's been almost 4 years and I am still crying


this deserves to be on Spotify!!! I listen to it at least once a day <3

ItsLikeAwesome BUILD A PROBLEM! We have to wait until March 5th though :(


She feel
She strong
She make us feel like we belong


dodie. You are amazing. Tears are STREAMING right now. I relate to this song in a VERY deep way. I am truly touched by your words I love you dearly.


Geez, that just touched me in a way I can't describe. I'll be falling a sleeping to this tonight, thank you.

Ps. I hope you are ok.


you, dodie, are the most beautiful and brightest rainbow <3


The beginning sounds like a song that I cannot remember; regardless, this song is beautiful


"I never even asked to be this way."
"When I'm so used to feeling wrong, well it makes me feel alright."
This song hit me right in the chest, growing up in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where being gay is a sin. When I realized that I'm bisexual, I cried for hours. I struggled for months to try to talk myself into just ignoring it, and pretending to be the perfect straight girl I'm expected to be. I came out to my parents, sister, and aunt, and only my aunt fully supported me. My 10 year old sister told me that she thinks it's wrong and gross, and if I date a girl she won't ever talk to her. Even I didn't fully believe that being gay is not a sin, even though I know logically it wouldn't be. I'm finally starting to realize how beautiful life is when you accept yourself, and this song really captured my feelings so well. Learning to accept my feelings and treat them as a blessing rather than a curse is the hardest thing I've ever done, but it's also the happiest I've ever been.


Anyone back here after being reminded by the new version❤❤❤


you have helped me so much more than you could ever realize.


I was outed by my aunt to my dad. I had already experienced so much in the summer of sixth grade, and I was going to church camp, and to be honest, I had never been so scared. I’m still not sure of my sexuality, but I will find my way.


This is like the 80th time I've listened to this and it still blows my mind


About a year ago coming out felt so easy. Now it feels so difficult and im so confused all the time


I keep crying my heart out to this song. Happy pride 2019 💓


you and your music are a blessing. i can't wait to see you live march 2019 catch me crYinG !!!!!!!!!!


Even as a lesbian, i relate to this song in a non-lgbt way, which makes me even more upset than my homophobic parents.
At school we have a very accepting community and I can be who I am without real judgement (obviously friends are going to tease but they don't mean it) and 80-90% of my friend group is LGBT, we have 2 openly LGBT teacher and the rest are hella supportive and they'd never say the gay things i do to me parents because they know the situation. So i feel very welcome and accepted for who I am by my (chosen) family.
However, there are things I can't even fake not having issues with and are just very embarrassing for me to share, even if they aren't the worst things in the world. I have breakdowns over just the fact that I can't just be normal. But I do have a few people in my life who make it feel ok. Less inhuman. More normal. So I really really to this song that way.

I love you so much dodie ❤❤ what a beautiful song, my dear❤❤


"i was brought up in a line"
dodie is a lyrical genius
edit: btw this is up for interpretation! im not saying my interpretation is the correct one

I think she meant she was raised to be straight but went her own path

well <br>In geometry a line: • is straight (no curves), • has no thickness, and. • extends in both directions without end (infinitely).

well

As a non binary person this song is conected so much with me


On the first day of 7th grade I got up and sang this infront of my entire choir class, at the time all I really had was my cousin. I sang the first verse and the chorus, I was shaking the entire time. When I looked up I saw my cousin sitting in her chair crying her eyes out. She's always believed in me and we don't see her cry much. But that day I saw her so proud of me that she cried. That moment I realized that someone really did care about me, even if it was just my cousin. I'm a freshman now, but I still look back on that moment and see just how much it changed me as a person.

So thank you Dodie, for making this song and all your music. I don't know where I would be without any of it.

OMG I TEARED UP READING THIS THATS SO SWEET


All the people here are so nice...<br>You guys are really cool <3

All the people here are so nice...
You guys are really cool <3


What a way to end the Pride Month. This song really speaks a thousand colorful words and every second of it is just beautiful. We love you so much, Dodie. Hope we're doing a good job of reminding you that everyday ❤


❤ Love u your music is Amazingly sweet love is love nobody can change it though people disagree with that we still love and support you


Hey y’all, this song is about to be two years old soon!

And it will also have been two years since I’ve been in the closet about being trans lmao-


thank you for this beautiful song my queen.


someone needs to put this on spotify. please :(


dodie, you make every closeted lgbtq+ a little less alone and we are all so grateful for that. people went emotional from this video, i cried, even you did, but sometimes crying is the best way of coping. thank you, dodie. you're truly a blessing.


I stumbled upon this song again after a while and listening to it now after I've started to really understand and love myself despite my sexuality was truly a beautiful feeling. Thank you for such an amazing feeling


“But my title just talks over me
I never even asked to be this way”
You’re literally singing the emotions I’ve been experiencing in the past month, and I’m crying on the inside

Just saying that it's good to see Dodies fans that have been around since the skittles needed US all to color 'em


so please step inside my soul
I'd Love to watch you gasp

This doesn't just hit me with my sexuality but with all my problems and how people still think I'm the sassy carefree girl i have to play to hide my thoughts.

If this year is 20-gay-teen, does that mean next year is 20-bi-teen?

Annabelle Dionisio dodie is the queen every year

if hayley kiyoko is queen this year, does that mean that dodie will be the queen of next year??

MehMonster As a bi person, I would very much like this to be a thing


thank you for putting this into words. this song comforted me so much when i was just starting to figure out my sexuality and i am just so grateful for you and your pride videos. now i’ve been out as a lesbian for a while and i am so happy i had people like you who made me feel like i had a community that i could relate to.


I heard this at Manchester last night, it was beautiful


This hits dead center home. My parents accept me and love me and joke around and talk about girls and feed into my weird love for rainbows and the colors pink blue and purple together in some stripes. But... I always feel in the middle. I like to understand things but I never fit the examples or relate to the metaphors. "I thought it would feel good to know why I'm different" feels so good because it's the only thing that fits. I'm so different from everyone else that I have no clue what's normal and what isn't or how to deal with things in the best way for me because I always fall somewhere in the middle. I started to notice everything and now I feel alone and distant and separated from everyone. Like, looking out the glass. I've been told before that bi doesn't exist. Its one or the other. I heard it on a show. It hurt. I was told that I don't belong. And I mean all my life I've known that I don't fit in anywhere cause I'm a special little blob and I'm happy this way but its starting to feel like everything is backwards. I want somewhere I belong. Somewhere I feel that this is where I can be everything at once and not hold back parts of myself amd only show the other parts. It's like being depressed. You feel like you sometimes laugh but never truly. Never fully.


Im actually crying rn. Ive had these exact feelings bottled up inside me for so long. Im a bit of a quiet gay (internalized homophobia and all that) and sometimes pride in and of itself feels a little inaccessible to me. It really means a lot that you took the time to put words to this experience. I dont feel half as wrong after listening to this.


First published here 2 years ago, now on the new album (released yesterday) 🥺❤


I recently discovered I’m a lesbian and this song has never hit harder. While I was happy pretending to be straight, happy to pretend to fit in, I am not who I thought i was. I am a lesbian. This makes life difficult. More difficult than I thought. But I’m proud that I chose what I wanted over what the world wanted for me. Thank you Dodie, I’ve watched you since 2017, and “she” is one of my favourite songs as that’s what I listened to when I fell in love with my straight best friend lol, thank you for everything <3


this made me weep. dodie, you’re so incredibly talented and i appreciate you so much. you inspire me so much and i want to thank you for that. much love. 💖


I finally came out to one of my close friend of 9 years earlier this month and she told her parents who said they’d hide it from mine and have been more than accepting. Being raised in a homophobic home and having someone so close to me be accepting has meant the world to me thank you dodie for a wonderful song and hope you have a wonderful last day of pride❤🧡💛💚💙💜

I’m glad someone accepts you! I’m in a similar situation but my friends parents told my mom so now she knows. She thinks it’s a phase but I didn’t loose my house so it’s ok

sorry about your family but sounds like you foound a better one in your friend x

<3 all the luck, love and best positive wishes <3

Well done, one of my friends came out to her parents yesterday and I feel so happy for her!

I'm sorry about your home situation, but extremely happy that you've got people like your friend's family to be there for you.


Dodieee this was so perfect! You put the way so many people feel into words. You are such a bright light in so many people’s lives. Speaking for the dodie fans thank you so much. We love you and are amazed by you every time we see you.


I love this song. I'm straight, but I have a lot of LGBTQ+ friends and listening to this song helps me understand what they see and feel. I love you Dodie, keep doing what you're doing.


i don't understand why Dodie's lyrics aren't world-famous


Dodie made me cry! This was so beautiful! I needed to hear this today!


I'm a rainbow and you make me feel alright! 💕 it's amazing 💕


Oh wow this is so beautiful! It really got to me even though I'm not even a rainbow myself. Amazing


You are special and incredible and I care about you so much <3


when i first heard this song i didn’t think much of it, but fast forward two years and after learning a whole lot about myself i listened to this song again for the first time in a while and FUCK this song has me EMOTIONAL!!!


Sooo I’m asexual I think. No I don’t think I know.

I’ve been battling for years about my sexuality and this past pride month with so much love and support, I felt I was getting closer and closer to knowing. And this, this has come at the perfect moment dodie. So dodie, or anyone who reads this, let you be the first to know, I am asexual. And one day I will become strong and brave enough to own it 😊

honey lavender bakery I’ll definitely check it out, thank you! At the moment I’ve only been using tumblr and YouTube 😂

@Sasha it’s when you don’t feel sexually attracted to anyone (though there is grey asexual where you feel slight attraction!) while Ive been struggling I thought I was bisexual as I find both men and women equally attractive but the more I explored and researched I realised that this equal attraction was more based on not being interested in either rather than both. I hope this helps and good luck finding who you are!

i would totally recommend checking out AVEN; it's a site for asexuals and even people who aren't asexuals and just want to learn about asexuality! really great place to be- everyone's super loving and kind :)

Can someone tell me what being asexual is, because I feel like I am asexual, but I don’t know what a person who actually is one feels like.

Me too! Welcome to the asexual community, where we have lots of cake, bad puns and cool people who understand exactly how you feel 💜

This gives me chills every time. Thank you, Dodie, for being so amazing.


this is so amazing omg I wish I could write songs like this

I relate so personally to this song especially 1:20


<b>You are such a beautiful soul dodie clark</b>

*You are such a beautiful soul dodie clark*

Caleb Twombly if I could heart react this comment I would ❤


I’m kinda sad because I don’t know my sexuality, I know there’s no rush to figure it out but I think I might be pansexual. This song is so beautiful!


this is absolutely beautiful, every part of it. I love the message. to the the lgbtq+ people, I support you with all my heart! you are valid! love you dodie 🌈


Throughout this pride month i have realised how damn lucky I am to have the people I do in my life. I feel like I don't need the support of pride that so many others do and I am so greatful for that. To all of my friends and everyone on the internet who have helped me so much, I love you, Thank you xx


so cool this was officially released today!


"How can I be proud of what a million people shout at me I'm not"<br>This is so heartbreakingly relatable, thank you so much for putting it into such beautiful words

"How can I be proud of what a million people shout at me I'm not"
This is so heartbreakingly relatable, thank you so much for putting it into such beautiful words


Thank you Dodie. I am still figuring myself out, but all I know is that I love women. This song has given me hope and strength in the scariest, most confusing, and most daunting times in my life. Your words even gave me enough courage to come out to a close friend of mine yesterday and he told me how proud he was of me for trying to find myself and who I am. I still have my entire family, friends, and even myself to truly come-out to but thanks to wonderful lgbtq+ icons like you, I know many others on confusing and difficult home situations can find the strength in ourselves. With all the hate and shame my family puts on this wonderful community, I'm still not scared of who I am and who I love. That is all I could ever ask for. Even if it takes me years to tell them, this song will be the reason why.<br> Thank you for this gift. Thank you for this confidence. Thank you for this love. Thank you for everything.

I love how subtle but so strong and clear this song is. ❤


This is so beautiful. Although I'm not part of the LGBTQ+ community, I'll be here supporting everyone who is. ☺🏳🌈

dead kpop inside joke Ikr people need to support them because it's like what if being straight was seen as gay or bi like they need to jndertand that not everyone is perfect and nobody is the same

I think everyone should be part of it as we are all equal/we should be ❤


This is beautiful💗🌈 the lyrics and the soft music are so perfect together


this song makes me cry almost every time I come back and watch it. it's perfect.


Two years later and I still love you for this, Dodie. Thank you for my heart.


Of course it's dodie who closes Pride Month with an original ❤


This is making me tear up because it touches my heart ♥ Dodie your sooooo special just like a rainbow


Where do I even start! These lyrics are so beautiful, you’re voice is outstanding, the meaning is heart warming! I really admire your work!💞🙏


This is a beautiful song and it made me cry, I didn't know how much I needed this.


aweee I'm gonna cry ;-; This is such a beautiful song!!


“It’s getting hard to navigate when every map was never made for me” I have no words this was so amazingly written I love this line and I love this song

Well this is the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard


Dodie you're a rainbow and bright and beautiful and inspiring! ❤🌈

So please step inside my soul
I’d love to watch you gasp
You’d understand in minutes
❤ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜

I hope you young, beautiful queers had a wonderful pride, and that you have many more.

Awe congrats! I mean I'm not out yet but this is an awesome way to end it lol


Such a beautiful song! I hope this can inspire many to live the life they want to live and make the most out of everyday :)

Also a lot of Kudos Dodie, making original songs are hard lol, that's why when I do it, they're only around 10 seconds long xD


Every time I listen to this I get goosebumps! So beautiful and genuinely heartfelt!


PLEASE put this on Spotify !!!! I want to listen to this EVERYDAY !!! <3


i have never clicked a notification so fast


This song makes me so happy, I love you Dodie.


And also just beautiful melody and chords! 🙌😮💙 so many goosebumps!


I don't know why, but as soon as I heard the chorus I started bawling my eyes out... <br>Thank you, Dodes.

I don't know why, but as soon as I heard the chorus I started bawling my eyes out...
Thank you, Dodes.


....just as I was debating whether or not to come out as gay...... thank you for giving me the courage I needed for this


IM A LESBIAN AND IN HIGH SCHOOL I HATED THAT WORD AND WOULD NOT IDENTIFY AS IT BUT NOW IM SO PROUD OF WHERE I AM AND THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!

Julia Dempsey oh hahah thank you!!!! I’ve actually already graduated! 💖💖💖💖🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈

im proud of u and i hope u make it through high school alright


For a long time, I never liked the same guys as all the other girls, I felt different and left out, they would talk about how they would love for a guy to “give them good sex” and the subject always kinda made me a little uncomfortable. I always thought guys and girls were cute. I felt different then all the other girls and they made fun of me for it.

But I did some research and learned that I am a biromantic asexual (a person who does not have sexual attractions towards others, biromantic means I like more than one gender) and I’ve had so many people tell me I’m wrong or I’m trying to get attention, and my parents have even told me I’m going to hell. This song made me feel better.

Thank you


I am sobbing.Than you dodie <3.You've just summed up how I've been feeling for some time.Love you


I loooovvveeee this song considering I'm Pansexual and my pansexual body feels satisfied


everything you do and everything you are is beautiful ❤


I feel like you just bathed my soul in rose water. this is beautiful


Please put this song on Amazon music!!! It's so incredibly beautiful!!!!


You’re songs always make me emotional even if they aren’t sad they make me want to cry.


Stay proud❤🧡💛💚💙💜💗🏳🌈

Stay proud❤🧡💛💚💙💜💗🏳🌈

•rueruels• don’t you mean BIconic hahaha

That’s my cue to leave


This song is just incredible in so many ways. 💓


I’m questioning and every time I hear this song, I cry. I cry because I feel it hits very close to home, but I scream at myself that I’m not gay and I don’t deserve to listen and feel something when I hear this song. I sob because I don’t know who I am and I’m so lost on how I should feel. I don’t even know where to start or how to end.

I’ve told my mom that I’m questioning, and after a day or two, she came to the conclusion she doesn’t mind. She told me I don’t need to rush to find a label. It felt amazing when she said that, but as of now, I can’t stop thinking about labels, and which one belongs to me.

I’ve built up so much pressure when it comes to sexuality that whenever someone brings it up I tense and my face gets red. Sometimes my eyes water.

I tell myself I’m not gay, and I don’t deserve beautiful songs like this. I don’t deserve to get that special validation when someone accepts you for your sexuality, because I’m the normal, straight.

I don’t know who I am, but I know that whatever I end up being, my mom will be there for me.

Whoever you are, whatever you feel, I promise it’ll make sense one day. You don’t need a label or to even know for sure. Go with what feels right and everything will eventually click into place and you might not even realise it. Stay strong, whoever you are 💖


So nice and sweet voice, love how you play your uku on this beautiful original song, beautiful choirs and backing vocals ! LOVE IT :D

don't click read more unless you're prepared for a paragraph

Okay.
So this pride month, I saw all of these beautiful people talking about their experiences and how much they love pride. It is astonishingly beautiful. I really really really want to be a part of it. I'm not sure where I stand yet though. I have a lot of LGBTQ+ friends, and they introduced me to a side of the world I'd never seen. A few things clicked for me. I don't want to label myself yet, though. I guess I haven't really accepted it, or come out to myself yet. Bisexual feels right. Demisexual feels right. Queer fells right. Asexual feels right. But what I'm afraid of is that, by assigning myself a label, I'll work too hard to make it true. Does that make any sense? Probably not. Anyway, what I'm really asking for is some advice, and I guess some help. Thank you so much. I LOVE PRIDE

Alright let's UPDATE: I came out to some friends as bisexual over text and I will figure it out from there. Thank you so so much for your words repliers.

YouTube must be glitching because it never told me that so many people saw this and responded. It was a lovely surprise to see all of these amazing people telling me about their journeys and tell me it's okay what I'm feeling, that I'm special for seeing them and interpreting them. I'm so incredibly touched. I wish you knew how much your words meant to me, how I feel like crying because I've found some wonderful people. <b>*HUGS*</b>

I'm still working it out too and I'm glad to see someone else like me. I told some one I  was questioning my sexuality the other day and she said I was too young to be thinking about that, despite the fact she herself has a boyfriend! It made me feel really downhearted that no one believes that I could be LGBTQ+ when I think I am.

That's how I feel exactly (and have been for at least a year). I've decided to just go with 'probably not straight kinda demisexual' which is not as catchy as I would like it to be but otherwise feels just right. So do whatever feels right to you. Take no label, Take ALL THE LABELS, make up your own, just pick whatever you're comfortable with and change it if you want. I wish you a very nice day, good bye :)

Ryn Thomas I totally get it and what matters is that you are comfortable. No need to push a label onto yourself. You are loved and validated and I hope you realize that too.

I feel the same way, wondering if I’m bi, demi, or just pushing labels on myself. I think people’s comments are right, that we can figure it out and we don’t have to use labels right away!

Ryn Thomas What you describe really hits me hard honestly, because I felt like that for so long (yet I didn't have half your understanding and capability to put it into words.) Take your time, explore your feelings. Your emotions are valid, and it's so incredibly mature of you to notice them.<br>Understanding your sexuality is a journey, and I sure wish you a great one ^^

Just say your not straight, but you don’t fit in a box. And that’s ok. It’s ok to be unlabeled!

AHA I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY it’s fine just give it time it’ll settle out eventually (at least, that’s what I’m hoping 😂)

Ryn Thomas I feel you, I've been thinkin the same things for a couple of months now.

Best way to find yourself, for me at least, was to let go of the labels and just grow and learn at my own pace. Labels can be tricky and weird, since everyone is at least a little bit different and experiences love and attraction in their own ways. I went from straight, to no label, to bi, to pan, and that feels the most right now. I still fall somewhere tricky on the asexual and demisexual spectrum though, and I guess I’ll learn where I am on that whenever I get into my first relationship, or heck, even after that. Have a good pride regardless of who you are.

That’s tough, and it’s difficult to have something that you can’t quite name. But you don’t have to label yourself right away, many people never do. You’re you and whichever label you choose doesn’t change that. :) good luck, you got this 💜💜🏳🌈

I totally get what your saying. There’s no need to assign yourself a label too quickly. We’re all just working it out. Best of luck. ❤❤❤


Gosh I love how brutally honest this is 😷😍


You amazing and I can’t explain how amazing you are. you have inspired me to play the ukulele and not only that to be more comfortable in my voice. ❤


This song makes me cry every time. I'm not even joking. I still love it so much. Thank you for that beautiful piece of art.


Ahhh Dodie this is amazing!! I fell in love with the song inmediatly 💖💖


I need this on Spotify so I can listen to it every day of my liiiffffeeeeeeeeeeeee


today i discovered just how different my cousin and i are..
it all started when he brought up his opinion that there are only two genders
from there i learned that he is homophobic, transphobic, pro-life, and pro trump (not even the whole of it)
i asked why he was against people's happiness, their freedom to live and be themselves
no matter what i said, he would simply not hear me out
he repeatedly told me that we should not allow this to affect our relationship
what he didn't know is that it had already been hurting me for maybe a year now
i always suspected we differed in views, but i never thought it would be this extreme
i don't know what to do
i don't know what to say
but i would like to thank the entire community, as well as this video, for showing me that there are amazing people out there
a rainbow must always come with a storm
i know i'll get through his hatred
i was just so taken aback
but we will carry on with strength, as we do


I just can't
How can a person be so great and perfect?!😍
I just want you to know that you made me love myself. Thank you!


I heard this for the first time live 10/10


All my favorite songs are from you. You've helped me so much with self awareness and self acceptance. I could never thank you enough. Shine on Dodie ❤🌈


This song makes me want to come out to everyone I WISH I COULD


i love this song so much like every time I hear it I just cry


I love, love, love this. Such a great song!


Thank you, Dodie.
You make me feel wanted
You make me feel accepted
And this song gives me all the feels! I can relate


whenever i have a bad day and feeling so lost this song remind me that it’s alright and yes sometimes my title will be louder then my words and I will get ignored because of that and the stigmas and stereotypes behind it and even though it sucks it’s ok because I am becoming myself and feeling more confident and comfortable everyday and I think that’s what I should pay attention to more then other people and there sometimes harmful and ignorant opinions


oh my god i’m cRYING!!! WHY MUST YOU WRITE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BUT HEART-WENCHING SONG, DODIE?!


Thank you dodie. I'm 14 and just came out to my parents and it didn't go ideally to say the least. They don't think I can actually be bi because I'm too young and that I can't label it because it's just me asking for "unnecessary attention" but every time I watch one of your LGBT videos, I'm proud again. Thank you. I'll never be able to tell you how much you've helped me. Another amazing song. 💙💙

You exactly described what I'm going through rn, except I'm 16. Gl to you, I hope your parents come around and accept you uvu ‹3

It’s now been a year since I told my mom, and although it took a while for us to get past it, she accepts me. She even bought me a black ace ring and refers to it as “my ring” or “my ace ring” as it’s normal for me. <br>I identified from the age of 15, and my 3rd year anniversary is September 18. You’ll get past this and think “Wow.... that was a lot easier than I thought.”

MaryBerry15 I was 16 when I told my mom I’m asexual, and she refused to believe it for the same reason... she thought since I hadn’t dated much that I couldn’t “possibly know.” When I came out, I hadn’t even had my first kiss.... but I’m with someone now and my mom asked me if he knows my sexual orientation is asexual... and I smiled as I said yes. She admitted it. It DOES get better.

Bradie Goaler thank you so much. I know this channel is always a place full of safe and supportive people

Hon, that’s literally <b>exactly</b> what my parents said when I first came out to them. It hurt a lot and I began to go into a drop of depression but I’m doing better now. And here I am, one year after coming out and my parents are so much more supportive than they use to be. So if you are ever feeling down just know how much I love you❤

MaryBerry15 man I’m sorry about your parents you can never be too young I’ve known since I was 10 or 11 yknow why are straight kids not too young to be classed as straight, I hope you’r parents come around and accept you. It will all be okay


Dodie i love you so much, your song inspired me to come out to two of my best of friends, thank you so much ❤❤


You are too pure for this world, a wee bright light in the darkness thank you ❤💛💚💙💜


I remember hearing this song when it came out. I was at a Christian Retreat, coming to terms with my sexual orientation and realizing the weight of it. At the same time, I was falling in love with someone who's now my boyfriend. This couldn't have been released at a more surreal time and I remember sobbing listening to it because of everything that was going on and how much it hit close to home for me. So thank you dodie for changing my life in the ways that you do.


I love this so much!! Your voice is so beautiful Dodie!!


you just made me cry<br>you're my favorite rainbow

you just made me cry
you're my favorite rainbow


Thank you for bring out this song it means so much for myself 🌈🏳🌈 and please put this on iTunes and Spotify such a beautiful song


You and your voice are beautiful and I've loved watching you since I was like 13 and I'm 17 now and I love you're still creating music and being incredible 💖


Dodie. You're my rainbow after every rain in my mind. Thank You!!!


I listen to this every time I doubt who I am, thank you Dodie x


I'm in so much physical pain right now because of my disability and I listened to this and just started crying. Not tears of sadness, but you made me forget about my physical pain through your music. Thank you for that.<br>EDIT: Thank you for all the kind comments. I am disabled (still undiagnosed, presumably autoimmune & major depression and anxiety) and bi. :)

I’m Pan and this song made me very happy. The lyrics are beautiful and the melody is amazing. Well done dodie, this is gorgeous. <33


do you ever hear a lyric and think "one day that will be tattooed on my body"


Every time I feel dysphoria or am feeling like a “fraud” in the community, I come back to this video. thank you Dodie


Omg I love this so much. It’s so inspiring. I like to think I’m not confused I’m bisexual🌈😭


I was sad that pride month is over, but then dodie posts this

Everyday is pride if you want it to be 🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈😄🌈

it’s 20gayteen every month is pride month. it’s pride year :)


This is absolutely beautiful, you inspire me! 😍 I love your messages. They are so authentic and deep. 👍


Beautiful work! It warms my heart to know we have such amazing people like you in this world~~


This is GORGEOUS, thank you so much for sharing your words and your voice!! Your music changed my life and I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that way :D


This song is just really amazing, it really helps with accepting something you have just been trying to push to the back of your head but in the end you can't ignore it forever. 💗


This song really touched me and my soul. I thank Dodie for sharing her beautiful talent with the world because it's songs like this that make me feel not so alone.


im watching a playlist of your songs and its helping my headache so much oml


I'm screaming, that was so beautiful and the best way to end June 💖💜💙


I know songs take time to make, but sometimes I wish you would upload more ❤


This is beautiful dodie ❤ I love this so much x

i went to my first pride parade today and went to a pride themed disco with bishadow (bi colored eyeshadow)

ellaisnotok snap. My first pride parade was in Dublin today and it was so special and magical

ellaisnotok this is the best thing in the world 😂❤❤❤❤🏳🌈 "bishadow" hahaha I love that with all of my heart


why has this brightened my day so much ❤ thank you x


This is brilliant what did we do to deserve you wowww 😭


this makes me feel accepted with who i am <3 thank you


Dodie, you’re so talented! “You’re a rainbow.”

DIY SJ The correct grammar/spelling is "dodie, you're so talented" not your. When you tell someone they're talented, you use you're which would be short for you are. Just to remind you as I see you've been corrected, but the full mistake does not appear to be fixed. 😉

emma thank you for the correction! I will edit my comment!


when i came out to my mum she said she had been in a lesbian relationship once and the girl was extremely jealous and insecure about her significant other being around men. according to her, because that was her first and only experience, every single lesbian relationship automatically is jealousy and insecurity with zero trust. so, now she thinks i'm just going through a phase. it hurts knowing she thinks i'll be a jealous insecure person because i love a girl. she refuses to acknowledge my attraction to girls completely and only ever focuses on finding me a boyfriend or husband. it really, really sucks. this song still helps me get through some of the harder days....so thank you. really, thank you so much.


Why do I play dodie's playlist when I'm trying to get ready? I CAN'T DO MY MAKEUP IF IM CRYING 😭


❤💛💚💙💜 this song has been on repeat for me! Love it, and captures how I feel ❤💛💚💙💜


This is amazing!!! You’re such a great singer and I love your music, keep up the great work! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜


So beautiful. Thank you for blessing my ears


How are you so talented?!? I just love you and your music to pieces!!!❤🧡💛💚💙💜🏳🌈😁😍


Dodie, you're an incredible song-writer. You captured this experience so perfectly. thank you <3


Literally beautiful,almost brought me to tears!I'm straight but I support whatever anyone feels they are,it doesn't even have to have a name:you're whoever you feel like,whatever you feel like and you can love whoever you want.We should accept it no matter what because we all praise truth and want to live with it and that's the peoples' truth.💗

Whole heartedly agree, but also, this song (although originally about the LGBT community) can be for everyone I think, we all have struggles where we’re told we’re wrong and I think that it is helpful to everyone!!

I’m straight too but I understand what she’s talking about. These words go out is far beyond sexuality. I feel like it’s similar with mental illness or abnormalities. You wrap yourself in a label like a suit of armor sometimes but then it traps you and you can’t get out. You become the armor. You’re not you anymore. And there are still those who don’t see why you need the armor and think you’re faking a weakness, or what can feel like a weakness.

opinions are usually not at a point of right or wrong, but, YOUR OPINION IS SO CORRECT OMG.

Can we get an amen because you are 100% true

Y'all are the best! Thanks for being supportive. Us LGBTQ+ folk really appreciate it :D

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Although I'm straight, I fully support LGBTQ+. Thank you so much for writing this comment.

hi you're great and I thank you for this comment :)


I love this so much Dodie! Thank you so much for being you and for doing what you do <333


i love queer! its so amazing! people dont think that they are "queer" when everyone truly is. people shouldnt get hate for it, its truly amazing! <3


the guitar chords remind me of sick of losing soulmates a little, it makes the song seem familiar and i loove it


these lyrics... are amazing, dodie hit me once again


❤🧡💛💚💙💜<br>wonderful splendid gorgeous beautiful this song made me a lil teary eyed smiley despite pride month being over

❤🧡💛💚💙💜

IM SO INLOVE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you make amazing songs and omfg your voice, your lyrics, your instrument playing gahahdidvdidbd A M A Z I N G 😭⭐❤


Thank you. I'm a panromantic asexual, and I've always been told that something is wrong with me, by homophobes and the lgbt community itself.

But you've reminded me that I'm part of a rainbow and now I sort of feel alright :)

I’m a demiromantic pansexual. I get not feeling right

Afraid Of Trees I'm asexual panromantic too


i love the way dodie sings you make me feel like a rainbow


Dodie, you are so beautiful. Thank you for being there. If I could send love in an envelope, I would, but I cant, so here's a comment. I love you! Stay lovely!


i just want to say thank you to my friend for sending us this at 12am on june 1st


I actually cried while listening to this because it’s the embodiment of everything I feel as a trans person and I’m so thankful to you for making this


"I was brought up in a line but I seem to walk in circles"<br>That is just so accurate, not just for my sexuality but my general personality and perspective and hopes for life are so different than what they are of everyone else in my family

I’ll never regret listening to your music. This is so cute


❤🧡💛💚💙💜<br>Dodie you are so wonderful. This song gave me CHILLS. It makes me feel so... KNOWN. Understood. You’ve helped me sooo much with coming to terms with my bisexuality. I used to think I was a freak stuck in what’s “supposed to be a phase” and seeing your talks about sexuality (the first and then the official coming out both) were so very very helpful to me at the time, and still are today. 💙💜💗

Wow! I'm speechless! <br>Such a lovely song, so heartfelt, and so beautiful. Thank you for gifting us with your music, it means a lot.

Wow! I'm speechless!
Such a lovely song, so heartfelt, and so beautiful. Thank you for gifting us with your music, it means a lot.


I appreciate this greatly! It really does touch me


this was absolutely beautiful. thankyou for this wonderful piece of music.


One of my best friends had come out as pansexual and leaning towards females, and I acted very okay with it. However, for a good month or two, I didn't feel nearly as comfortable to sleep over at her house, platonically hold hands with her, pretend to be gay in public with for laughs, as I had before. Especially after she had come out to me as having a crush on me, someone straight and only having platonic feelings for said friend. Everything was fine, but it took me a shamefully long time to realize that none of that changed anything. Maybe she liked me, and maybe she liked females, but this was still the same girl I had spent countless hours adoring for her laugh and odd bits of her personality. She was the same person, just a little more honest with herself now. She still doesn't know how I felt for that short time, and I don't intend to tell her, but I still can't believe that I even considered her to be any different than the amazing person I had always known her to be.


<b>I never even asked to bi this way</b>

ATHAN 😂 officially my favorite comment because I mean same🏳🌈


Yessss dodie thank you this is beautiful ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🌈🌈🌈


This makes me cry every single time I here it. My body gets all heavy but my head feels so light


i used this song as part of coming out to my sister so thank you <33


dodie posted a video

GUYS DODIE POSTED A VIDEO IM CRYING YES OMG IVE BEEN BLESSED


we need a tutorial because this👏was👏so👏good

thank you dodie you never fail to disappoint me 💕💞💓💗💗💖💘💝💟


Your voice makes me almost fall in love, but more than that, the way you look as you sing, makes me wish I was young again.

You're amazing.


this song has never been able to not make me cry. I’m sitting here at one in the morning sobbing. ugh dodieeeee


I know they'll accept me, but I also know it will put an uncomfortable film on our relationship forever 😔


'my title talks over me' i came out to one of my bestest friends recently and im so scared she'll see me as 'my lesbian friend' rather than a friend who has had her back for two years now. rather than someone she has gone through shit with. im scared she'll never look at me the same. im scared she's hiding her discomfort and secretly wants me gone bc it feels weird for her. im so scared.

ava harvest we can get through this 💗 i believe in u pal :)

jacob fuentes i really appreciate this, thank you :)

i feel this. im exactly where you are. all of my friends know that im a lesbian but i dont know how to navigate not making it my whole identity or making them uncomfortable. trust me, i understand what youre going through and im so sorry bc ik how much it sucks

dodieatthedisco you have nothing to be afraid of because if she is your best friend she will understand that you are her best friend because no title should ever  change that bond between the two of you I know it can be scary since I came out to my best friend too and he was very understanding and it feels like me and him are closer then ever before.


thank you for this.<br>this song is absolutely beautiful

thank you for this.
this song is absolutely beautiful

Oh man when those harmonies kicked in. Right in the feels. Gorgeous 💖 to all my LGBTQ+ Lovelies out there, I stand with you. As a Christian, I know the church has hurt so many of you. And on behalf of them, I am so, so, so, so sorry. I hope that if you are needing that apology, (whoever reads this) that it brings you warmth. I love you all, you beautiful rainbows 💕

OstrichJocelyne you are so welcome honey! I hope you smile today 💕

That Little Badger the world may be dark and scary, but God is so much bigger and His love is so much stronger 💕 always remember that He wants your questions just as much as your faith because He just wants you to come to Him. May you be blessed sweet heart 💜

Kristen Hall I am so glad that I could be that apology for you sweetie. May God bless you 💕

MJMarie you are so very welcome. May God be with your Spirit precious one 💕

Mildly Majestic you are so welcome darling 💕 may God bless you

alittlelost omg I wish I could hug you 💕 smile beautiful one!

This makes my little bi Christian heart swell, thank you!

Thank you. As a catholic girl who’s still figuring herself out, it’s nice to know that there are people, even people far away on the internet, who understand and sympathise and accept

thank you. i was raised in a Christian household and lost so many friends when i came out and not once have i heard an apology from my church "family", so thank you, for truly being family 💕

Thank you. A lot. My parents are Christian and aren’t very accepting so to know there are people who understand, is very warming❤

Thank you so much, as a pansexual catholic, I cannot tell you how meaningful this is. I'd been told that people who. like the same gender are confused, especially those who like multiple genders, and others will question why I am so deeply rooted in my faith. Thank you for being so kind

I wish more lovely humans like you existed oh gosh. This comment made me tear up a bit tbh

thank you so so much for this comment, as a gay Christian I'm always worried about the opinions from both sides and so this really made me feel nice 💛💛💛💛


This made me cry. I am still new to knowing I am genderfluid and I am so scarred to come out and to be out because much of society doesn't believe genderfluid people exist. I was going through a really tough part in my life trying to except who I am (still working on it) and had to be homeschooled. I feel guilty for not just powering through and being out to spread awareness that I and others exist. My dad doesn't really care and sort of just tolerates people and my mom is accepting though doesn't get it but my brother hates anyone in the LGBTQ+ community who isn't just a cis gay. And I don't know what my friends would feel about it. I wish I could just be myself.


Beautiful words, and a beautiful song from a beautiful soul.


wow, i cannot put in words how beautiful this song is.<br>thank you dodie for making us feel understood and brightening up our lives with your oh so wonderful music

this gives me so much courage. thank you <3


wow.
i’m crying.
this is absolutely beautiful💗🌈


This is what I needed in a time of my life where my family doesn’t understand how much I’ve fallen into a hole that I will never get out of.


i can't believe this is turning 2 years old soon. i still remember when this was first uploaded, i was in rough times and this became my comfort song. oh wow. hmm...this song definitely holds a special place my heart.


After a day (nearly every) of emotionally painful moments covered up with punk and rock music, I love to come back here and remember who I am.

And cry a lot.


This helped me because today my family was all like “oh your future HUSBAND” “do you have a BOYFRIEND” etc and I didn’t have the courage to say that I’m not into boys, I like girls. I LIKE GIRLS!!! (Sorry boys You’re adorable) so thank you :)

It will be okay . Good luck for when you come out . Dont feel like you need to either if you want just randomly show up with a girlfriend one day .


Would love to have it on my spotify Playlist


this song always makes me cry ♡♡♡♡♡ big love


Hi, I don’t know where else to say this because I’m comfortable telling anyone. I’m bisexual and I love it. I love the feeling of holding a girls hand and how soft it is and I love girls kindness and genuine love for everyone.
I also love boys and there strong muscular arms and having banter and thinking of kissing there small petite lips that look so intriguing.
I’m bisexual and I’m fucking proud of it. People can tell me I’m not but I’m the only one who knows how I feel ❤🏳🌈


How do I go about covering this for a short film I’m making?<br>Is there copyright issues??
