* Joji confirming on Twitter that after months of silence, that ''The Filthy Frank Show'' has ended. Reasons he states were due to his weary interests in the show and [[RealLifeWritesThePlot health reasons]] [[HarsherInHindsight long discussed in the deleted "FILTHY FRANK EXPOSES HIMSELF" video]] is what prompted him to end the show.
** It's made worse when you take into account that Joji's other reasoning for ending ''The Filthy Frank Show'' was because of Youtube's heavy growing landscape that wouldn't have allowed his content to persist anyway.

* [[https://soundcloud.com/chloeburbank/plastictaste plastic taste]] is probably the saddest Joji song yet. It's a James Blake-esque tragedy of a relationship withering from the narrator's own "plastic taste", and is led only by sparse beats over a low, brooding piano and vocal harmonies that sound like ghosts.
* George's remix of Daughter's [[https://youtu.be/frGbGBKDhaI "Medicine"]] is genuinely heartbreaking, so much so that it's often sparked discussion as to whether or not Joji [[TrueArtIsAngsty suffers from depression]].
-->[[TheCoverChangesTheMeaning Don't be what you want to]]
-->Don't be what you want to
-->Don't be... you want to
-->All the medicine
* "[[https://www.youpak.com/watch?v=2kMnXcu0ze0 Will He]]", off the upcoming EP ''In Tongue'' is so sombering and heartwrenching, from Joji's harmonizing background vocals, the slow piano notes, to Joji's DespairEventHorizon lyrics in regards to the loss of a lover, but sort of goes into Heartwarming territory about caring about said lover.
--> Will he play songs just the way that I did?
--> Will he treat you like shit just the way that I did?
--> [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Cause I don't blame you]]
** Arguably ''everything'' off of ''In Tongues''. "Will He" obviously, but the other songs...damn.
*** "Pills" is a lament from ''one'' line: "[[PleaseDontLeaveMe Please don't run away..]]"
*** "Demons" is borderline SanitySlippage, from Joji's somber singing and heart-wrenching melody, and not even the ThrowItIn ending doesn't help.
*** "Windows" comes off as a sad perspective of TheWorldIsJustAwesome with another view of DespairEventHorizon of Joji 'letting his dreams go'.
*** "Bitter Fuck". Even with a sarcastic title like that, it is '''not''' the usual SelfDeprecation from Joji, and it comes off as shocking from him to put himself down.
*** The Worldstar Money interlude, ''ouch''.

* Off of ''Pink Season'', we have "Help", arguably the most straightforwardly sad song on the entire album, made more audacious by the fact that it's [[LyricalDissonance the happiest-sounding song on the album]]. It's about someone who has depression and lives a miserable life overruled by self-destructive tendencies. Anyone who genuinely suffers from depression or anxiety will be able to relate.
** Especially sad is the part where Pink Guy's "'ay!" background chants turn into cries of [[TitleDrop "Help!"]].

* The outro of "Teriyaki God" sounds like a Joji outtake and sounds completely different from the traditional BoastfulRap that preceded it. The ukulele and vocal harmonies combine to make something that sounds like the sensation of dying and ascending to heaven put into musical form. [[SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel It's beautiful.]]

*[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OsRPWRJ7PY E.T. 2]] has a surprisingly profound speech about humanity as a whole.
--> '''"E.T.":''' Humans are born to live. From the moment you are thrown into the universe, you breathe, eat, drink, procreate. It is what we do as living organisms. But why would one procreate, let alone find a reason to stay alive, without something to stay alive for? Humans don't stay alive for the sake of survival, but rather for the sake of things that bring purpose. Religion, art, music, love. In an endless oblivion of darkness and space, humans are the only species primitive enough to care. You must do what you love. The best things in life will always end in conflict. That is why humans are primitive. [[PrecisionFStrike Fuck]] [[MoodWhiplash this planet. It is a piece of shit. Seriously.
