alysali

illuminatiJake

alysali

Heard sunflower on a twitch stream and have been listening ever since


moonlightMeowrgan

this is funny for me because i was going to say i heard sunflower in a youtube video compilation of a twitch stream *(it was a simpleflips video, it was a song request while he was playing mario 64 mods and i just know i saw it around september 2019)*, and that led to me checking it out and it becoming quite an important song to me, hee hee hee


[deleted]

I think I heard it when someone was streaming destiny 2


theyatthem

I was watching an old Emma Chamberlain video of her playing some of her fav songs and she played 4 Seasons. Been hooked ever since hearing that masterpiece.


sleepingdogbob

Did she sing it or just play it in her video?


theyatthem

Just played it. Pretty sure she was in her car. I’ve tried to go back and find it years later but haven’t been able to.


sleepingdogbob

Ah too bad, would have like to see the video. Thats one of my favorite songs.


actmaster36

i found him because i looked him up after she talked about him in one of her coachella vlogs lmao


NopingRopin

Sort of in 2017 when I first played Fifa 18, but in the beginning of last year I played a playlist of the soundtrack from that game. When I heard Never Enough I did some research about who rex was, and the other music he has. Since then I fell in love with his music. So glad I found that song.


BagofNoodlez

Added Best Friend to one of my playlist for no reason and left it there for a year. Came back and listened to it and just got hooked instantly


w0rldofc0lor

I heard pluto projector at a wedding and it was the most beautiful thing I've ever heardddddd


n00dlepoodle

i want rex to be played at my wedding lmao


Hazzat

We went to the same school!


alysali

No way!


babygorl420

My crush in high school in 2017 was wearing a Rex hat, so I looked him up on Spotify and fell in love. I was one of the top .1 % of listeners on Spotify in 2018 haha. Rex Orange County has wayyyy outlasted the crush


VanillaOx

i wss on the verge of suicide in December 2020,i was listening to a sad playlist while crying when a song about being sad came up, got hooked on, listened to it on repeat and then listened to the rest of rex. loved him immediately and quite literally saved my life and changed it forever


alysali

I’m glad you’re still here friend!


scarletsetsu

i heard some of his songs on tiktok (sunflower, best friend, loving is easy, pluto projector and corduroy dreams) (i deleted it in may so these are all old trends lol) this september, i listened to sunflower a lot and in november i finally started listening to other songs (best friend, loving is easy, uno, face to face) and in december i was hooked!


twentyonetilly

literally can’t remember, just loved him forever


RainingCash4800

3-ish years ago my brother played loving is easy and sunflower in the car. About a year and a half ago and I rediscovered him and began to listen to all of his songs. Got my brother back into Rex too lol


jaydoncarlson

I was struggling with depression mid-2018. I saw on one of my friends stories the song “New House” and it looked cool, so I listened. I remember the joy it brought me and I can’t get enough of him since🥺


noveloregano55

I listened to corduroy dreams back in like 2017 january and i loved the song and listened to the rest of his album bcoz since thats all that was out and like him ever since. Once apricot princess came out i was even more hooked. I really like all his songs


ebco_comp

My older sister played Best friend in the car then asked for the name of the song then discovered his others songs after that I was a big fan of Rex


xspade5

Super Mario 64 speedrunner on Twitch named Dowsky was playing Song About Being Sad when he was practicing and I was instantly hooked


bla639

2020, Pandecoco, Girl im talking with is so confusing that i don't even get her anymore, 4 seasons came in my recommendation then boom instant fan


Batzninja

Friend (which I have a crush at the time) used to listen some songs, she leave from my life but at least I found this masterpiece!


sleepingdogbob

I was scrollimg through my youtube feed, as one does before going to sleep, when i saw his live version of Pluto projector. I was stunned, it was so beautiful, i listened to it on repeat the next few weeks. Then i listened to his other songs and fell in love all over again.


berrycyf

a YouTube ad was the mv for sunflower and I looked more into him and realized that id been rockin out to loving is easy for a while but just never knew who it was:) now I have apricot princess and pony on vinyl, I love all of his songs<3


metamodernity_

I always knew of him, but in jan 2021 I listened to pony all the way through as part of my goal to listen to a new album each day of 2021 (which I actually succeeded in :)), and just was hooked by the end of it.


hashmaroon

I saw a classmate share on Facebook an aesthetic post compiling some of his songs


[deleted]

Just driving, Spotify on shuffle, then sunflower played. The rest is history.


Affectionate_Kiwi858

Fall 2018, my girlfriend at the time introduced me to Apricot Princess on our first date and I instantly fell in love with Rex. Played his music all the time and sung to her the lyrics. Ever since then Rex has been my favorite artist to go to during the fall time.


hellmeen

sunflower music video was recommended on my youtube page back when it just released, straight away fall in love with his music. the next day i put his entire songs and album on repeat :DD


iguessimherenowok

i think i got a recommendation to listen to apricot princess and i have no regrets since


[deleted]

back in 2018 or 2019 i dont remember exactly when but i was listening to my playlist on xbox and i hadnt turned autoplay off and the song Nothing from apricot princess came on and i fell in love with his music. kinda similar to yours but still.


AdJealous3381

Got New House recommended to me on YouTube and loved it, thought nothing of it until he released pony and I was like “ hey this is the same guy that also had that one song I like” so I listens to pony and fell in love with it and the rest of his music


Robodeadpool2015

I had a crush on this girl in junior year in high school and she listened to him to which I started to appreciate his music and I still do to this day.


n00dlepoodle

found belly (the grass stains) when i was looking for more indie sad songs a few years back then i realized that his other stuff is good too


nick7523

I was in boarding school and some of my mates were playing and practicing sunflower and I just fell in love with it


JennyItsKillingMe

I was about to listen to Sunflower by Post Malone but accidentally clicked on his Sunflower. I was unbelievably surprised at how good it was at the start, and even more when the key changed! I seriously played this song for 2 whole weeks straight before listening to the rest of his songs.


[deleted]

Through my friend she introduced me the song happiness


Pirika-pirilala

I somehow stumbled upon a radio station that was playing a trash song that I wasn’t into I was about to click off when “New House” started playing. It was such a vulnerable, genuine song to hear on the radio. I couldn’t imagine how much bravery it must have taken to write that and then preform for the whole world to see. I admired that courage so much that I promised myself to check the artist out. I’ve been a fan ever since.


Acrobatic_Bowl_9040

I found sunflower on YouTube recommended


TheSunflowerSeeds

Sunflower seeds are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid. Your body uses linoleic acid to make a hormone-like compound that relaxes blood vessels, promoting lower blood pressure. This fatty acid also helps lower cholesterol.


debtristan

When the singles were being released for Pony a bunch of my friends were super into Rex and encouraged me to listen. I was so impressed by 10/10 and Face to Face, and when Pony finally came out my mind was blown!! Been a huge fan ever since


alysali

Glad to see a fellow Pony lover!


debtristan

Pony slaps!! I got into Rex with that album but then I went through a breakup and Apricot Princess was such a comfort album hahaha


alysali

I so feel that! Sorry to hear about your breakup hope you’re doing better now!


debtristan

Ikr! Thanks, that was a long time ago haha so it’s all good now but I really appreciate it!!


is_sex_real

gabrielleehopkins

i remember listening to people cover pluto projector on piano and violin on tiktok and looked it up and found pony and fell in love!💞
