Fairly Local: Difference between revisions

“Fairly Local” is the lead single from twenty one pilots' fourth album, ''Blurryface''.

The song describes two sides of Tyler’s personality, with two opposing verses. One is narrated by Blurryface, a personification of all of Tyler’s doubts, insecurities, and self loathing, and another is told from the perspective of Tyler himself, who is trying his best to destroy Blurryface.

Despite the fact “Fairly Local” received no official radio rotation, the track peaked at #4 on the ''Billboard Digital Song'' chart and #8 on the ''Billboard Hot Rock Songs'' chart.<ref name=":0">https://genius.com/Twenty-one-pilots-stressed-out-lyrics</ref>

|<blockquote>I guess there’s always that fear that you’re going to change as a person. But also, whether or not you’re in the spotlight making music, you’re going to change too. I mean, Josh and I are right now sitting in Columbus, Ohio, at my house and we love it here. It’s our hometown and it always will be. So I think in the song ‘Fairly Local,’ it’s more metaphor. We had a lot of conversations with a lot of people who like listening to music or using music to get through tough times. If anything, I think Josh and I learned when we were traveling the world during the last album cycle that everyone’s the same, everyone feels the same issues. So it’s kind of a way of getting on the same level as these people and telling them, in a sense, we understand what you’re going through.</blockquote>–Tyler Joseph via ''PAPER''<ref name=":0" />
