- "When I get chills at night,

I feel it deep inside without you, yeah."

Hailee Steinfeld, "Love Myself."

- Whoever this person is is probably talking about a significant other.

- The person that you love is not there.

You feel sad or you feel cold.

- Without you, so... with... so he's feeling it

inside without her.

- I'm not thinking too much into it 'cause it already sounds super sexual.

- "Know how to satisfy,

keeping that tempo right without you, yeah."

- That other person isn't missing that person."

- I think we're getting into a little more dangerous territory.

"Keeping the tempo right," that's kinda, like,

I don't wanna go into detail.

It's sexual.

- I thought at first I was reaching there,

but nope, it's about sex.

- "Pictures in my mind on replay. I'm gonna touch the pain away."

Is this about masturbation?

- Jerking away. Choking the chicken.

- You can interpret it as sexually, but it could just be like,

you know, feeling someone's hand or you touch their arm

when you're comforting somebody.

- I feel like this is a breakup song, like an after breakup song.

- He's remembering old times from the old relationship.

- She's thinking about her and the guy having sex together,

and that's helping her touch the pain away.

So isn't she technically using him to love herself?

- "I'm gonna touch the pain away" means touch themselves

in a certain way.

What is this?

- "I know how to scream my own name, scream my name."

Good for you, buddy.

- What song do I know about masturbation?

All of-- is it Miley Cyrus?

- She doesn't need a guy to moan and be like,

"(in ecstasy) Haileeee!" while they're having sex.

She could just scream, "Hailee," and get satisfaction

from that on her own.

- This guy's just lonely.

I'm assuming it's a he, but honestly we don't know

for sure if it's a guy or not.

Girls masturbate too.

- "I love me, gonna love myself.

No, I don't need anybody else, hey.

Gonna love myself. No, I don't need anybody else.

I love me."

- I just masturbated all the memories of her out of here!

Now it's me. I found myself.

- I know the song. It's by Hailee Steinfeld.

- I don't need anybody else to tell me that they love me

to feel secure in who I am as a person.

As long as I love myself, that's all that really matters.

- I don't need somebody else to verify

that I'm a good person or I'm worthy of love or attention.

- Basically, this is all about self-loving and stuff,

but the only song I know that's out about that

is that one Hailee whatever song.

- You could read this two ways:

dirty minded way, and then also in a self-acceptance way.

- I wish I could say that I think this is about loving yourself

and being confident in yourself and stuff,

but I know it's not.

- "I'll take it nice and slow, feeling good on my own without you, yeah."

- "Got me speaking in tongues, the beautiful, it comes

without you, yeah."

(gibberish)

Is that the sound that's coming out of her mouth

while she's masturbating?

- Whoever this is is so into it they're just like,

"Ha, la, la, ha, la, la."

Like, they can't even say words.

- "The beautiful" end results, um, happiness and fulfillment

and whatever else you want out of life,

it comes without this person that left them.

- Now that you're not in a relationship anymore,

the ability to be able to create beautiful moments by yourself,

and she doesn't need that person to make life beautiful.

- "I'm gonna put my body first,

and love me so hard 'til it hurts."

It's about masturbation. That kind of gives it there.

- She's like, "No, I'm gonna focus on myself.

I'm gonna work on myself. I'm gonna make myself better for me.

Not for anyone else-- because I want to."

- Growing up now, like the age I am now,

it's really acceptable to not be in a relationship

and be with yourself.

- "I know how to scream out the words, scream the words.

I love me, gonna love myself. No, I don't need anybody else."

- They're learning to appreciate themself.

- Loving yourself, being confident, not caring what others think.

He's not ashamed to love himself anymore,

so he's just screaming it out.

- It's a very uplifting and confident moment at this point.

- It's a metaphor of orgasms representing self-loving

and correlating to finding yourself beautiful?

I don't know! I'm so confused.

- "(blandly) Ah, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la."

- "Any time that I like, I love.

I know how to scream my own name, scream my name."

- I think he's done masturbating.

He doesn't feel sad anymore

'cause whenever he wants to be happy, he can be happy.

- Their name is them, and since they're proud of them,

they scream their name.

- When she does something, she does it with a lot of passion,

not a little bit of passion.

Any time that she likes, she loves.

- "Can't help myself, no.

I don't need anybody else. Any time that I like, I love me.

Ah, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

Any time that I like, I love me."

- Before he was relying on whoever his partner was

to make him happy, but now he's so into himself

that he can just be happy whenever.

- Before anyone else can love you, you have to love yourself,

and before anyone else can support you, you have to support yourself.

- You can read it both ways.

I think they're really finding self-acceptance

and they're also kind of horny.

- I still don't know if this song's about masturbation or not.

Half about masturbation, half not.

That's my conclusion.

- (Finebros) So what do you think this song was about?

- Um, it's about femininity and women power

and self-confidence and self-reliance and masturbation,

but mostly self-reliance.

- Learning to love yourself and making yourself a priority in your life.

- It's masturbation, but I feel like it takes

masturbation to a deeper level.

When you're masturbating, and you're getting intimate with yourself,

you're kind of in touch with your own body.

- (Finebros) For the artist, this song is ultimately about

taking care of yourself.

Even though it's nice to have someone,

the song represents the power in being self-sufficient.

- I think that's a really cool message.

Everything's temporary; you have to accept for you

because that's the only thing that stays a constant

throughout your entire life.

- Life can still be so, so great by yourself if you make it that way.

- It's not this outlandish, straight of the box--

like you've never seen this concept before,

but it's a good one to reiterate because we have too many songs

that are the exact opposite.

- If that was their message,

they could've said it in different ways

because otherwise it just seems like a song about masturbation.

- (Finebros) Finally, do you know the song's title and artist?

- "Love Me Harder"... and it's, I don't know.

- Literally no idea. Miley Cyrus.

- Demi Lovato? "Love Myself."

- "I Love Myself" byyyy... Icona Pop?

- I feel like it's Maroon 5

because "ah, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la."

- "Love Me" by Hailee Steinfeld.

- "Love Myself" by Hailee Steinfeld.

- "Love Myself" by Hailee Steinfeld.

- (Finebros) It's called "Love Myself" by Hailee Steinfeld.

- Never heard of that person.

- Who's that?

- I was so off.

- I knew that too! Oh god!

I was trying to figure it out the entire time.

- (Finebros) Hailee is only 18 years old.

What do you think about a fellow teenager

making a song with these kinds of themes?

- I think it's great. I think it's good.

And I think that she's taking a risk by doing that

because it's definitely sparking conversation.

- You could still be a teen and be mature.

This is my mature face.

- Now I'm wondering if she has a sense of humor

and if it's kind of like she made this song just to see

if people would think it's about masturbation.

- Teenagers have sex.

I guess it's, like, "shocking" for them to write about it

because it's not like they come home to their parents

and are like, "(sigh) Josh-- lemme tell ya. Took care of me today, mom.

Took care of me today."

She's letting people know first of all, as a teenager, it's okay

to engage in sexual activities.

I mean, you know, when you're 50 years old... the train stops.
