Laufey saying "fucking" like is a holy word means the world to me
@rosetea11
love how this whole song embodies the “when the glamour wore off” lyric. the song is stripped back, showcasing laufey’s vocals and raw emotion instead of her usual glittery melodies and instrumentals. in that sense, she’s also telling the audience that this is who she is stripped back. she’s telling us that she’s no goddess, but a person at the end of the day. just like the rest of us. very powerful and beautifully done.

2:08 HELLO?! The way she sings "But I am not your Aphrodite" is so mesmerizing
@ashebxz
I can’t imagine how hard it must be to date when you’re famous… you never know if someone actually likes you or your internet presence. This song beautifully captures all of the feelings that could be felt by many well known people all over, and I’m sorry you had to go through this. But thank you for sharing your story via song; it’s amazing.

I already know half of us lauvers are going to be crying.

"goddess on stage" "human when we're alone" - what a line!
@undefeateddonkey69
Hearing her say “We’re alone” throughout out the whole song, and then at end say “I’m alone” touched me.
@Paul.D27
The voice of a generation. NO ONE else comes close. Her songwriting and her vocals, just WOW ❤❤❤❤
@deargifty
2:36 “when the glamor wore off” the way she sings this is so chilly
@venomase5572
I love how the visuals present her literally on top of a pedestal. This is such a good way of signifying how the love interest here puts her on a pedestal and avoids actually getting to know her as a person. Only interested in the fame/money.
@DustyNonya
Ahh, the depth. "Guess you're still growing up at thirty" alone is both piercing and frighteningly relatable for far too many men these days. Breaking the 4th wall while simultaneously adding color to it is just one of many nice touches to a lover scorned song.
@RaeandtheDiamondCastle
This song embodies the pain so well, I’m so proud of Laufey honestly.
@Mayahdanielle330
I love the ending line and how it fades to having no background vocals or reverb. It shows that everything is stripped away and it’s just her and her authentic voice without anything added to it. So much artistry and just simply represents the message of this song so beautifully✨ we love you laufey!

Goddess feels like the smell of grass after rain
@sinnohth
The mood shift towards the end of the song broke me… I haven’t experienced such pure sadness and anger through a singer’s voice like this in such a long time. Whoever hurt Laufey is so cruel man :(

This song feels like you’re floating in space and every star is a memory you made. It’s really beautiful and melancholic but also peaceful as you accept who you are. Thank you for making another classic, Laufey.
@xSafin
I had the honor to see Laufey live recently. She played this song to us for the first time and it's so impressive to see what it has become in production. I must say, not only is she just as talented with her voice and instruments on stage as in her tracks, but her presence is so kind, lovely and genuine, I want her to be part of the industry for all her life

[Verse 1] It always goes like this Could've predicted it I'm so naïve to think you loved me for me Kissed as I ran off stage You're too old to play this game Guess you're still growing up at thirty, oh [Chorus] Were you surprised by me When you took me home? When the glamour wore off Reduced to skin and bone I can't even tell who you want to know I'm a goddess on stage Human when we're alone [Verse 2] You took a star to bed Woke up with me instead You must have fеlt so damn deceived Whеn you made up a version of Me that you thought you loved But I am not your Aphrodite, oh [Chorus] Were you surprised by me When you took me home? When the glamour wore off Reduced to skin and bone I can't even tell who you want to know I'm a goddess on stage Human when we're alone [Outro] You took me for a fool You stole my youth You wanted this so much You watched me rise Then killed my light And now you know I'm not your fucking goddess Oh, oh I'm no goddess when I'm alone
