Über diesen Titel
In this episode, Karl Anthony revisits “We Are Young” by Fun, a song that feels like an anthem of unity and youth.
The melody is powerful. The hook is unforgettable.
But when he listens closer to the lyrics, the story shifts. What sounds inspiring on the surface carries themes of regret, substance use, and harm. It raises a bigger question: What are we really singing along to?
Karl reflects on how music shapes emotion before we process meaning and why influence matters, especially for the next generation.
The episode also includes a candid conversation with a Brooklyn native about faith, legacy, hard work, and learning to be present before it’s too late.
