Twenty One Pilots releases new song

On Easter Sunday, former Artist of the Weeks – twenty-one pilots – released a new song off of their upcoming album Blurryface.

While many fans thought that twenty one pilot’s piano usage was nearly done with, they were given a surprising gift on April 5.

Releasing the song with the video, the band kept those who were nearly falling asleep wide awake. Immediately, the song picks up and, honestly, just makes you want to dance.

It’s an intense ballad to a woman that’s perceived as somewhat tough, and the band’s singer is just too hung up on her. Tyler Joseph sings, “The songs on the radio are okay, but my taste in music is your face.” Personally, that is my favorite lyric.

Adding onto this is a bridge that talks about potholes and cursing the government. It gives the audience a perfect insight on the lyricist’s imagination and uniqueness.

On top of everything that’s perfect about the song, the music video is an amazingly acted video staring Joseph’s newlywed wife, in whom he ends up kissing after numerous punches are thrown to him.

It’s awesome.

The song’s received mostly great feedback, according to the worlds of Twitter and Tumblr. I asked college freshman Tori Planitzer about her opinions on the song.

“’Tear In My Heart’ is different than anything twenty-one pilots has produced before. Not only is it more pop driven, but it’s the first twenty-one pilots song that [Joseph] has ever acknowledged the concept of love in. He sings about his wife and how she makes him better, and though its different, it works.”

Blurryface is said to hit stores May 19, 2015.
