The List Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Isla recommended Cole to me
He sounded sweet
So I hung him up on the door
And seeing as our homes are pretty far
And you broke my heart
I think of Cole more and more
[Verse 2]
Angel told me rather two than none
"Honestly," she said, "you're owed some fun"
Maybe best that we don't try again
Such a shame that a start means an end
[Verse 3]
Last October I got mad
You ignored our plans
So I drank with Joe all night
And two weeks on, I still felt his heat
So I turned my cheek
He mustn't think me very nice
[Verse 4]
And weekends have my hands in Molly's hair
Edging closer in the open air
Older feelings coming flooding back
No, I don't want to have to look at that
[Chorus]
Brag and boast, as I might
I still sleep alone every night
Take a hint, let me go
Hold on harder, I don't know
Do you cast a net as wide as I?
Do you keep a list for a lonely mind?
And does it feel even colder to hold her
When you miss me?
[Verse 5]
Thomas calls me when it's still outside
And my face looks tired
But I only care a bit
I truly see him in a softer light
Still wonder if we might
But Christ, I cannot count on it
[Verse 6]
A flirt with Katie down the lens
And I pretend
To want her more than you
A stick and poke and then an awkward kiss
In a moment missed
I'd have her if I could have you too
[Verse 7]
And Eddie told me after Isla'd gone
"Honestly," he said, "you're all I want"
Laid out on my bed, I must admit
While he shook like a leaf, I had to think of it
[Chorus]
Brag and boast, as I might
I still sleep alone every night
Take a hint, let me go
Hold on harder, I don't know
Do you cast a net as wide as I?
Do you keep a list for a lonely mind?
Does it feel even colder to hold her
When you miss me?

The List Song Review: Why Fans Love It
There’s something about “The List” — dodie’s October 3, 2025 drop from Not For Lack Of Trying — that’s quietly taking over playlists and becoming a shared language among listeners. Here’s why fans can’t stop talking about it.
1. Emotional specificity, without being over the top
From the very first lines — “Isla recommended Cole to me / He sounded sweet” — dodie nails that bittersweet mix of longing and regret. Fans online frequently point out how every name (Cole, Joe, Thomas, Katie, Eddie) feels so grounded, so real, that it’s not just a song — it reads like someone’s diary. On Reddit threads, listeners compare lines like “Do you keep a list for a lonely mind?” to small gut-punch poetry — “that one lyric hit me at 3 AM,” one user wrote.
2. Growing streaming numbers and visibility
While full Spotify stats for The List aren’t publicly broken out yet, dodie’s overall presence is strong: she has amassed around 942 million cumulative Spotify streams across her catalog. Her monthly listener base hovers near one million. After The List’s release, fans have reported seeing it climb on fan-curated playlists and “New Pop” features, giving it extra momentum outside her core audience.
On YouTube, the official visual or audio upload for The List is already gathering thousands—even low six-figure—views in its first weeks. Shares on TikTok and Instagram Reels are fueling that growth.
3. Trending across social platforms
On X, the hashtag #TheListByDodie is rising. Fans compare their own “lists” of heartbreaks, tag friends, post lyric snippets, and debate which verse hits hardest. On TikTok, #TheList has been used in short videos:
• Someone used the chorus over shots of late-night city rain.
• Another turned it into a duet-like “you singing Cole, me singing Thomas.”
• A popular trend pairs the line “still sleep alone every night” with moody home footage or window gazing.
These viral micro-moments amplify emotional connection and invite new ears into the fold.
4. Live performances and communal singing
At recent tour stops, fans report that The List has become a surprising mid-set highlight. In smaller venue shows, dodie pauses after the chorus to let the crowd sing “Do you cast a net as wide as I?” back to her — and often you’ll hear “When you miss me?” echoing across the room. Clips on TikTok show fans filming “that moment” when thousands of voices join in.
Some listeners have posted stories of hearing it played in chill lounge settings or indie bars — not booming, but softly in the background, as if a friend put on a song they needed everyone to hear.
5. Artist reflections and press buzz
In recent interviews tied to Not For Lack Of Trying, dodie has mentioned writing The List from a place of trying to “sort through fragmented memories of love, of what you cling to when you’re lonely.” In a past video interview, she’s talked about how she leans into vulnerable moments in her lyrics, trusting that “if one person feels this too, I’ve done something right.” Press write-ups note The List as a standout track on the new album, one that carries the emotional weight of her past work but with a more polished pop sheen.
Why listeners are replaying it:
Because The List speaks both for you and to you. It’s the weight of naming names, the ache of wondering if someone else is keeping a mental ledger too. It’s melancholic but also melodic — a combination that stays in your head without feeling manipulative. In an era of fast singles and fleeting TikTok hits, The List invites repeat listens not just for its catchy structure, but for its emotional pull. You keep coming back because it’s one of those rare songs where the more you listen, the more personal it feels.
