5 Reasons Logic's New Song Is The Best
Kyle Fall

Logic recently released "1-800-273-8255" in an attempt to draw attention to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, or NSPL. Whether you like Logic or not, this is definitely worth listening to. Some listeners are not found of the song because it is "drawing" attention to suicide, but in my opinion, it is the best song ever released. The name of it is the NSPL number and if this doesn't explain how amazing the song is, I'm not sure what can, but I'll try.

1. Logic made this song with fans in mind

He made this song because he had gotten feedback from fans that his songs had helped them through rough times, but he felt as though he hadn't done enough. He felt he needed to do something extreme that could help people in ways that were unimaginable.

2. It is about more than just suicide

This song is not just about suicide. It is about the events and struggles leading up to feeling like suicide is the only option. There are so many reasons that people feel like suicide is the only option and Logic incorporates this in the lyrics as well as the music video.

3. Logic isn't the only one singing

In order to make this video more meaningful, Logic teamed up with Khalid and Alessia Cara. By having two other artists singing with him, it shows people struggling that there are people that care. Although NSPL is not singing, Logic also partnered with them and that's even more people that care.

4. He performed it at the VMAs

Not only did Logic, Khalid and Alessia Cara sing the song at the VMAs but a group of people wearing white shirts with the NSPL number on the front and "You are not alone" on the back came and stood on various areas of the stage with tears and their eyes. After the song, Logic delivered a very heartfelt speech speaking to everyone about how the mainstream media doesn't want to talk about mental illnesses but it needs to be discussed and that's what his new album "Everyone" will be doing.

5. Anyone who is struggling can think of the name of the song and know the number

Logic is popular. This song is popular. People are going to remember it and it will mean a lot to people who are struggling with mental illnesses. It is a very emotional song and it speaks to many people.

Be watching for the new album "Everybody" on May 5 to hear his amazing songs on repeat everywhere you go.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
