Lyrics & Translation

[English]

We should make this video. I moved in

one day. Ultimate New York City move. I

won't do that, but [music] I could.

[music]

Oh, hello. So, today [music]

is Friday, September 19th. The movers

are coming. September 24th. So, I have 5

days to pack [music] up everything and I

have a very, very busy weekend and work

days ahead of me. So, it's not like I

have all the time in the world. Anyways,

I figured if inspiration strikes, you

should get a little bit done. So, let's

let's pack up a few things here. I'm

also in the middle of filming another

video, but I wanted to take a break and

do something a little different. [music]

All right, these are all mine. Oh, look

how cute. This is from one of my

friends, Dan. It's a teacup with a

turtle. And there is that cute.

[music]

What's up, turtle gang? We're making

progress. Everything has to get a little

crazy before it gets organized, but

we're filling up bag one by one down

here, too. A bunch of my books and my my

things. Anything else? What do you

think?

No more insights. I'll cut it out if you

say something. Okay. All right. Without

further ado, check in soon. We'll be

further along. And yeah, [sighs]

this is a lot.

Getting kind of tired. Are you?

No. Okay. All right.

>> Pause. We're making progress, guys. is

if you've been around and you were here

for my last move 2 years ago, I showed

you these huge [music]

bins that have just been so so helpful.

They fit so much stuff. But exciting

news, midpack, I just got a text from a

friend of mine who has extra tickets to

Chapel Road tonight [laughter] at Forest

Hills. I was there a couple days ago for

another concert. It [music] is just the

best venue in my opinion in New York

City. It's outdoor. It's not small, but

it's not huge and [music] it's just the

best energy. So, I am so excited. Point

being, I need to make some progress over

the next like 2 and 1/ half hours before

I have to leave. It's already looking so

empty. It's crazy without [music] the

couch there. All right, back to playing

chapel while I pack. Play

[singing]

>> Tennessee.

[music]

[singing]

[music]

That's where I belong.

>> [music and singing]

>> end of the weekend and oh my god, Chapel

Run was so so good. It was just a really

nice weekend. As [music] I got into bed

tonight, I just realized I only have

three more nights in this bed. Going to

make the most of it. Get some good

sleep. I have a very long day [music] of

packing ahead of me. I have to edit a

video all day tomorrow and then I only

have one day left after that to pack up

the apartment. So somehow even

last time I moved, I was not

self-employed.

I had a corporate [music] job. And so it

kind of made sense then that things were

very very last minute cuz I was working

such long hours and like just [music]

actually did not have time to pack until

a few days before.

This time I probably could have started

a little sooner. Oh well, you live and

you learn. Okay, I'm actually going to

bed at a reasonable hour now because I

want to wake up early and get started.

So, anyways,

good night.

Howdy. Okay, it is a day and a half

[music] before I move out of East

Village. As a little work break, I

thought I would come look at the doggos

probably for the [music] last time.

Second to last time, but I come here all

the time. I love the Tomian Square Park

Doc Park. There's a lot of good

inventory.

[music]

I just pet that handsome boy for a few

minutes and he was perfect. Sometimes

when it's a tough working day and I'm

out walking and I see a cute dog, I'm

like, it would be good for me to pet

this dog if the owner is cool with it.

Release some oxytocin. Goodbye my

bodega.

Goodbye LA laundry that I never use, but

it's really cool. It's It's half plant

store, half laundry. Goodbye blue

accented buildings. Also, I never really

said it officially for safety, but I

feel like it's pretty obvious based off

of everything that I always film in my

New York vlogs that I live in, the East

Village. And if you are moving to New

York for the first time, people ask me

this a lot, like what neighborhoods

should you consider? I am a huge fan of

the East Village and think it is just

like such a good intro to New York. It

is so much fun. Unlimited cuisine,

coffee shops, bunch of young folks,

great energy, dirty in areas, lots of

rats in areas, but that's New York,

baby. That's show biz.

Good morning. God, I wish I could be

more chipper for you guys on my last

morning here. Well, I guess I'll be here

tomorrow morning, but then the movers

come. But the reality is I do not fall

asleep until 4:20 a.m. Actually, 4:20.

I'm not making a joke. So, I was

troubleshooting getting my video

uploaded and then it's pretty funny. It

is very very predictable that if I'm on

my computer uploading something or

editing like late into the night, I will

not be able to fall asleep for like

hours after that. So, it was like that

on steroids. And now I have to pack up

my kind of whole life today in one day.

We should make this video. I moved

[music] in one day. Ultimate New York

City move.

I won't do that, but I could. I say this

as though it's literally not my fault

that I put it off until the last minute.

Anyway, let's get this day started.

[music]

[music]

Got a beautiful day to pack. Small

windsh.

I'm not even feeling [music] that

delirious yet. I know it's going to hit

me in a few hours is my guess. I

actually have to work a bit before I

even start packing. But uh let's open

the rest of the windows first.

[music]

>> But you know what? I have an ungodly

amount to do. But I still think there's

always time to go outside. I'm stepping

over all of my things here.

>> [music]

>> There ain't nothing ain't nothing going

to ain't nothing going to bring us down

[music] the races run. Self realization

that I've already packed my espresso

machine. But good news is I have pretty

much a full leftover thermos from the

coffee shop I was at yesterday, which I

can pour over ice. Economical.

It's good coffee, too. I wouldn't do

this if this was mid coffee, but it's

good coffee. I also could go buy some,

but we don't have time for that.

>> And I packed my creatine and all my

supplements, too. I'm going to freak

out. I'm not going to be performing at

my tiptop level.

>> We're standing by.

>> Okay. Absolutely classic. I decided not

to film me hypers speed cleaning this

off. Coffee grounds. But I'm done with

the kitchen. Done. Done. Done. I did

most of it the other day with my friend

of the romantic persuasion who helped

me. But yeah, now I'm like really done.

I There's still room in that final box

over here. Can you see? And so I don't

want to waste room in a box. And so if

there's anything upstairs that could

come down here or whatever, I'm going to

wait to [music] tape it up.

Okay. So, I'm throwing away junk, right?

And I'm kind of like, is this going to

be worth something? I kind of want to

save it as a relic, but I'm also like, I

don't need it. I don't need it. I'm

really not good at parting ways with the

trinkets.

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> Okay guys, couple hours later since I

last took a clip and definitely making

progress. It doesn't feel like I am, but

I am. Problem is, I tell myself if I

just put everything in [music] this pile

right here that I'll just pick away at

it little by little and then I leave the

whole entire pile right there. So, let's

pick at it a little bit.

[music]

>> It's the Led Zeppelin physical graffiti

album. Kind of [music] neat. Okay, I'm

taking a break for dinner. Super super

hungry. I'm extremely irritable right

now. I'm not going to lie. The four

hours of sleep are catching up to me cuz

I've just kind of been going non-stop

for all day and all day yesterday. It's

been a stressful last few days. But I'm

happy I'm going to my favorite, [music]

like consistently favorite restaurant in

East Village that I go to all the time

and that I will still come back to even

when I don't live here anymore. It's

Vietnamese [music] Hanoi House in East

Village on St. Mark's. Highly recommend.

Check it for I did a great job filming

before my food [music] king.

>> It was really, really good. In my belly.

>> There it is again. Physical graffiti

album cover. Led Zeppelin. You know how

they got their name? Critics said about

the band early on that they're going to

they're going to drown like a Le

Zeppelin. That's how they got it. I

think that's kind of creative and fun.

What if I named my YouTube channel based

off a hate comment? Stupid and ugly LLC.

Dessert time. We're going to get ice

cream. It's Vanluins, which they're all

around the city, but that's what I want

right now. It's on Second Ab and Seventh

Street. And I'm going to get the brown

sugar cookie dough brownie. My usual

go-to. Is that what you're going to get

to? Yay. East Village, everybody.

[music] Wait, we came here so long ago.

We took a clip over there. Do you

remember? It was

>> [music]

>> uh at the very end of my what I spent in

a week as a 26-year-old. I think time

flies when you're having fun. And I also

filmed here with Shervin. There's so

many memories in every corner of East

Village for me for real. The

neighborhood ice cream spot. [music]

And we have to go back and finish

packing. We'll get done.

>> Okay. Bye. Cut. How my muscle look. No

cut.

>> Okay. This is diluted content. We need

to focus back to packing.

Doesn't [music] look clean, but I'm done

at a record time of 10:12

p.m. But it does feel like it's 4:00

a.m. just because I've been at this all

day. But we're done and I'll actually

get some sleep tonight. They come

anywhere from 9 to 11:00 a.m. tomorrow.

But wow, this is cray. class. Bye. I was

saying earlier at dinner that it's just

been such a busy couple days that I

haven't felt enough like levity to be

able to feel nostalgic yet, but it's

hitting me now that the room is empty. I

just have this weird light on because

took my sconces down. So, good night.

It's the day and [music] I just got the

call from Piece of cake that they will

be here in 15 minutes. And I just have a

few more things to do like tape some

final boxes together and put my sheets

into a bag. So I can do that right now

and then we'll be good.

[music]

>> Trying to get all my bedding in one

trash bag so I can just unpack it

tonight.

>> [music]

>> But we shadow. [singing]

I'm tired too.

Tell me babe, what are we [music] going

to do?

Cuz you got me in the back

spinning [music]

from the way the magic. [music]

Crazy.

Wow, it's really starting to feel empty.

There were so many boxes before it just

didn't feel that empty. All right, I

just spotted my [music] things.

There's my tool chest. Oh, yeah. Huh?

Do you know? [music] And do you know I

don't want you to go [music and singing]

possibly end up being you and me. Is it

just me or do you feel that this could

be love for real?

>> All done. There's the truck. [music] I

am taking an Uber to go meet them at the

new apartment. I was going to take the

subway, but they [music] would beat me

if I took the subway. So Uber it is.

Bringing the essentials with me. Well,

this is stuff just for my fridge. And

then this I have baby, my stuffed

animal. Then I have my passport in

[music] my backpack. And that's about

it.

[music]

[music] To my second New York City

apartment in my new place. Little sneak

preview.

>> Hello, [music]

this is Taylor.

>> The place where I truly started to feel

my footing in the city. And I think

[music] that that speaks volumes to how

special this place is. It is not for

everyone. It's really not. But it is for

me. The place where I built new

friendships and deepened [music] ones

that mattered the most.

>> The place where I took [music] the

biggest risk of my life and never looked

back. I have left management consulting

forever. YouTube revenue streams. I am

now a full-time creator. [music]

Like for real, for real this time. The

place where small routines added up to a

version of me [music] that I'm truly

proud of.

>> And the apartment [music] that held me

steady through every upload, every

pivot, every plane ride.

>> It's autumn in New York City. A [music]

freezing day. Actually, below freezing

day. It's springtime, [music] baby.

Listering 92° day here in New York City.

[music]

Thank you for everything. I'll see you

in the next one.

>> [music]
