Van Etten, Sharon - Seventeen Lyrics

aimee 💜

At 17, I don’t think I’ve ever realized that I was alive. That was the worst and the best year of my life so far. But it was special. Sometimes I want to go back but then I remember the pain at that age so no thank you. I’ll be fine. We’ll be fine.

Who is here for Marianne?

amaru hernandez lol, I just finished that episode

♡ 😢

Well im 18 but this song just reminds me how unlucky i am. Im not a free teenager like how she mentioned in the song. All thanks to my strict parents im 18 my most enjoyable years are passing away and im just listening to this song and feeling sad for can not be relating it

“It’s just a stupid bus”

I am 17 now and when I listened this song I am getting sad with no reason

I just found out she's 38. I thought she was like 22 or 23.
Damn.

Like a quien está aquí por la canción al final del séptimo capítulo de sex education

SEX EDUCATION 🖤

It's just a stupid bus.

17 was the best year of my life im only 20 now but if i could i would give anything to be 17 again

I'm turning 18 next week... I used to be 17. I've never felt as free as this song describes which makes me think... Is she really talking about being 17 or 70, or am I the weirdo who can't have fun? Kind of lost that ability to be young and carefree a long time ago. I guess i love joking around, but with the people around me that's almost forbidden. Everything is too much these days. Too many doubts to make out a thought, too much loneliness for one person. Wish I had a friend.

im seventeen. hits me hard. *i used to be free, i used to be seventeen*. i dont feel free but i suppose i must be free.

I had no idea this song was in the show Sex Education. Never watched it. I just like this song.

Marianne & Sex education ♥️🎶

Gracias “Sex Education” por esta canción

Matheus Dutra same:(

First heard this song on Trinkets on Netflix. That show has the best soundtrack I've ever heard.🧡

Sex education?

Or 96,5

Crying ♡

Me encanta!❣

Thanks sex education to show me this amazing song

I’m 17 and this song hit me in a different way

I came here after Trinkets’ 1st season end. Hope there’s another one

Emily Haines of Metric Approves

Tell me why I’m only 20 and still wish I was seventeen forever?

Didnt know her, loved her

Sex education

From one of the best albums of 2019

I’m 17 and when I think of how my life has barely started it gives me weird emotion. In many years to come I will have all these memories to look back on which I don’t even know myself yet. I wonder what is coming my way, because at the minute I have no idea of who I want to be.

I was very depressed and had suicidal thoughts when I was seventeen, but i still love this song. There is something in her voice that makes me feel grateful of being alive.

Se volvió adictiva la canción sobre todo después de ver el episodio 07 de la segunda temporada de Sex Education!!!!

I’m here because someone was watching Sex Education and heard this song and wanted me to hear it and I’m glad she did because it’s fucking amazing and my new fave song

I used to be sixteeeen before I was seventeeeen... la la la la la

Mês que vêm faço 18...adeus 17 anos

"Solo es un estupido autobus..."

No entendí el vídeo pero vine por sex education😂

Yo también 😌❣

I'm here just for Sex Education ❤️ this song is so amazing.

I’m 20 and I feel like 17 was ages ago. Damn, I didn’t even realize how free I was until real life came rushing in. Enjoy the moment guys, youth happens only once.

Its just a stupid bus

I know what you wanna say
I think that you're all the same
Constantly being led astray
You think you know something you don't

Downtown hotspot
Halfway up this street
I used to be free
I used to be seventeen
Follow my shadow
Around your corner
I used to be seventeen
Now you're just like me

Down beneath the ashes and stone
Sure of what I've lived and have known
I see you so uncomfortably alone
I wish I could show you how much you've grown

Downtown hotspot
Used to be on this street
I used to be seventeen
I used to be seventeen
Now you're a hotshot
Hanging on my block
Sun coming up
Who is my shadow?

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

I know what you're gonna be
I know that you're gonna be
You'll crumble it up just to see
Afraid that you'll be just like me

Downtown hotspot
Halfway through this life
I used to feel free
Or was it just a dream?
Now you're a hotshot
Think you're so carefree
But you're just seventeen
So much like me

You're just seventeen
You're just seventeen

Came here after sex education season 2

I feel like I’ve heard this song before but it came out this month

it's just a stupid bus

It's just a stupid bus! :D

Now i have nostalgia over the year i was 17







Im 14 btw

I'm 17, now.

I don't remember much of being 17... I was so depressed and high for most of that year

How everybody comes to this video after the 7th episode of "Sex Education"

who's here after sex education on netflix? best song lmao

will somebody recommend me more music like this please

Ce moment dans l'épisode de Sex Education est tellement poignant, solidarité féminine, confessions, empathie, ça m'a donné les larmes aux yeux ❤
"C'est rien qu'un stupide bus"

Nice try Florence Welch. We know it's you.

I turn 18 in a month, i'm terrified. I became so lonely, I have no real friends, I feel like i made all the wrong choices. i'm afraid i can only make it get worse, idk what to do. I hope I can move past it, and look back from a good place, but for now I can't see a future worth running towards. I still have hope though, that is all i have. I'm leaving this comment so that I feel less lonely, and anyone in a similar situation...

Sex Education!!! HUHU

Found this song randomly but I’ll be watching sex education s2 now bc it looks like people like it🥺🤍

Yea, we get it everyone trying to be relatable, we came after watching Sex Education. But the irony of the episode, is that Aimee, after having biological fluids spilled on her, is still so young and has to deal with it as an adult. This is the reality of the world we live in. The song almost implies that this whole incident is like a "blip" when she was that age, per se. When you get caught up in the moment, and then something big happens... and it's a life-changer.

Many thanks to Sex Education for showing me this Song.. the Show is awesome with a wonderful Soundtrack

só tô aqui pela série sexo eduçãokkkkkk

Was 17 a few months ago

I see a lot of replies saying that 17 is not as beautiful as the video depicts. The song literally says 17 is a challenging and complex age, using the metaphor of freedom - so widely misunderstood to mean doing whatever you want, freedom actually means taking responsibility, taking risks, making a personal choice despite circumstances and pressure. Freedom is hard, most people live a wasteful, cruel life and call it free. Freedom, just like adolescence, takes an incredible toll on the character and habits of a person. You’re almost never free when you’re seventeen - school, social pressure, family alienation, developing intimate relationships - except when you don’t care that you’re seventeen. That’s what’s so amazing about being 17 - it defies time and age. I turned 18 in October, but I can proudly say 17 was the best and most spontaneous year of my life, not because I succumbed to some magical adult fantasy about how adolescents actually spend their time, but because I made it so. I truly was 17.

my heart hurts

I'm 18 now... It's funny how I've changed in a year...

SOOOOO GLAD SEX ED USED THIS SONG UGH THIS IS A RARE GEM

Sex Ed S2 Ep7 was so empowering. Being 17 is never what we think it will be and this song highlights everything beautiful about it. I totally teared up in that finale. Whether you remember being 17 or are still are 17 today, be with yourself. We are all on journeys. If you’re in a bad place, know it won’t be forever. If you’re in a good place, thank yourself for getting there. And remember whatever age we are now... someday we’ll be nostalgic for this too. So embrace yourself today. Much love y’all. 💞

I was so high at 17.

came here because youtube recommended it

Came here.

SHARON VAN ETTEN FT GEORGIA🤗🤗🤗🤗



LIKE FOR IT TO HAPPEN

This was banging had to find the song

Marienne und Sex Education 💜💜

I'm here because of sex education, like this I'll come back in 10 years for memories😔

you guys that came here because of Sex Education know you been missing a superb singer/songwriter, right?

Simply loving this!

Can someone tell me what type of music it is ? I definitly need to know !

sex education. the moment this song started playing i got to realize that this show has a beauty to it i never would have thought it does have in the beginning. started watching for sex jokes, comedy and maeves beautiful face, ended up feeling strong nostalgia about my time in school and the fact that these days will never come back. this show gives me the feeling of missing something i am not even sure about what it is. bitter sweet depressive in the most amazing kind of way.

I recognized her voice a bit from Sex Education, so I searched her up, got here and then I saw her face and I’m still in SHOCK.... THE FUCKING OA I MEAN WOW SO MUCH TALENT IN ONE PERSON UNBELIEVABLE

Aimee.....Sex Education fans?

What would you do if you were 17 today?
Do you have any regrets?

Is this what it feels like to fall in love

I wish there was a seventeen checklist so that I know what to do, so I know I won't waste being seventeen

[Verse 1]
I know what you wanna say
I think that you're all the same
Constantly being led astray
You think you know something you don't

[Chorus 1]
Downtown hotspot halfway up the street
I used to be free, I used to be seventeen
Follow my shadow around your corner
I used to be seventeen, now you're just like me

[Verse 2]
Down beneath the ashes and the stone
Sure of what I've lived and have known
I see you so uncomfortably alone
I wish I could show you how much you've grown

[Chorus 2]
Downtown hotspot used to be on this street
I used to be seventeen, I used to be seventeen
Now you're a hotshot hanging on my block
Sun coming up, who's my shadow?

[Post-Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

[Bridge]
I know what you're gonna be
I know that you're gonna be
You'll crumble it up just to see
Afraid that you'll be just like me

[Chorus 3]
Downtown hotspot halfway through this life
I used to feel free, or was it just a dream?
Now you're a hotshot, think you're so carefree
But you're just seventeen, so much like me
You're just seventeen, you're just seventeen
Seventeen

This comment section making me depressed as fuuuck jezus

It reminds me of super why. 🙂

It hit me, cause i feel trapped with anxiety at 17. And the feeling after i realized it was in Sex Education, that scene hit me even more. I guess it's time to break out of the cage.

I turned 27 today. I have so much I wish I could have told myself at 17.
I love you, little man.

Trinkets season 1 on Netflix brought me here

Who came here after Sex Education 2x07?

i'm 22 years old and already feel the weight of this song.

Same... But fuck we have to live fully as possible! Don't think so much, good Life!

Sex education s2

I came here because of Sex Education episode 7 but I'm utterly shocked because her character Rachel was a gifted singer in The OA!

I’m 19 and I miss being 17 but holy shit this song hits different
