  • That is possibly one of the most touching videos I've watched on youtube, and I don't think that was its intention! Bravo, Elmify. The process of watching your whole back catalogue of videos has begun...

  • sabrina is sooo beautiful!!! <3 let her know that! :)

  • Did you play "Nanny, nanny, rich kid?"

  • Wait ... Bacon? Wasn't she a vegetarian?

  • Was I the only one who actually liked her sad song? I thought it was quite nice, albeit admittedly a little corny.

  • God!! I am so glad Charlie recommended me to you. Your absolutely amazing and poetic. 

  • Why'd you label it 'Springtime in New York'? Through out this whole video the song 'Springtime for Hitler' so I had to watch this video twice...

  • wow was this voiced over in one take? thats impressive

  • saying "ever" twice for emphasis XD lol

  • Your sense of humor reminds me of Liz Lemon from 30 Rock :D Her good side! Not the slightly off-balance side...just clearing that up...

  • i really admire your style of vlogging, and i just all around love what you vlog about!

  • What hotel was that? Amsterdam?

  • OMG! My name is Sabrina!

  • So I was driving today, and at one point found myself mumbling "loneliness is like a polyester sweater, da da DA DA da da da da, and I wear it we-ell, I wear it we-ell"

    *does a kermit the frog arm flail / john green giant squid of anger portrayal*

    ./end embarrassing admission

  • I think she would make an amazing news reporter.

  • Ah! Jealous! I wanted to go see How to Succeed in Business, but it opened like 3 days after we left! And I live on the West Coast, so no hope of going there anytime soon :/

  • your lonliness song is like a cross between an early nineties 'they might be giants" song and a shakespearean sonnet. i think i just heard the awesome scale snap.

  • I want to go to NY in summer/spring, it looks so beautiful and much more alive than in winter

  • Elmify you are my heroine. I DO want to inject you and listen to jazz.

  • You are so wonderful. I am a New Yorker, and I weirdly find myself agreeing with everything you say about New York. It's weird because we all have our own ideas about it, but you are really smart.

  • what a beautiful video.

  • not related to this video specifically, but just wanted to say that your basically my idol, I love your videos, and I MISS YOU! your videos make me happy and I wish I knew you in real life. I feel like we'd be great friends. :)

  • i wear a polyester sweater everyday......

  • @malekec11 aww don't worry. You'll find a t-shirt soon <3

  • This made me oh so very happy

  • Haha my best friends name is Sabrina too!

  • You are so very, very Awesome. :)

  • i love love love when you make videos about the city. the flow of your voice that streams together your poetic words is so inspiring and can lift my heart to new heights, really quite magnificent. <3

  • I'd count myself very lucky if I had someone as nice as you as a best friend. Your videos are awesome :)

  • your the best

  • Hey elmify i think you need an opener and/or closer. I'll have to get on that.. BRB

  • You are seriously the best.

  • I'm not a fan of cities, but maybe I'll visit New York one day because of these videos.

  • This makes me miss New York! D: I want to go back now. I love all of your analogies, especially the oar one.

  • You would be a fantastic news anchor.

  • you're a new york fan, aren't you?

  • I love your diction!!

  • Very sentimental. Lovely! :)

  • As someone who doesn't really like New York City, I'm surprised by how much your New York videos warm me up to it. :D

  • As someone who doesn't really like New York City, I'm surprised by how much your New York videos warm me up to it.

  • I really like coming to your page. :) its so nice to read all the nice and thoughtful comments. There are rarely trolls, which is unusual for someone as popular as you.

  • you should expand that into a full length song; too bad Weezer already has dibs on "The Sweater Song" as a title

  • 1. Great another timer you were in New York that I didn't see you... =/

    2. Next time can you have a meet up or get together or something and plan it like a bit in advance?

    3. I also saw that...!!!!

    4. So how's that new relationship with Charlie goin... NUDGE NUDGE....!!!!11!!!1!1!1

  • This made me think of a Thoughts From Places video from the Vlogbrothers. I've seen you on a TruthorFail video (thus meaning you must be a nerdfighter :) so I know you'll actually understand how much of a compliment that is. DFTBA 

  • You have the BEST speaking voice.

  • I don't know why but the following sentence reminded me of the voice over in 'American Psycho':

    We went to see 'How to Succeed in Business' that eventing on Broadway and it was higly enjoyable. Fighting our way back through Times Square after the show I can't say I had any particularly deep or profound thoughts...

  • I adore your diction. Your eloquent voice-overs kick ass.

  • anyone spotted the guy at the plain that bumped his head at aproximately 0:52 ?

  • I'm not crying..I'm not..

    But em, you really are the cutest, and if I was sappy or something, I might be crying x

  • I want you to be my best friend. Is that weird? :)

  • I don't get why anybody would dump you...

  • You should work for a nes company, or 20/20. You have that story voice for it =)

  • Wow, you're so lucky you got to see Dan Radcliffe on Broadway, you should see the Book of Mormon next, that musical looks ah-mazing! :D

  • i know im gonna get some annoying "she's beautiful the way she is" comment for this, but i gotta say it:

    i really wanna attack your face with mascara, a tiny bit of eyeliner, then attack your hair with a flat iron.

  • love when in the minute 0:52 you can see the man banging his head on the baggage compartment. lool

  • Your videos always make me happy!

  • I love these videos!

  • You should get dumped more often, this was your best video yet ;)

  • your videos make my heart happy!

  • I just saw you ina movie!!! I couldn't believe it was you

  • I love you Elmify. You're my heroine. And by that I mean you're my lady hero - I don't want to inject you and listen to jazz.

  • @Snipwhiz I've actually just read "you're my hermione" haha ...

  • u are so lucky to live in america. damn i wish i could see new york. maybe next year. i hope. but i have rome so....

  • I love your videos :) I went back and watched all of your videos in order and now that I'm caught I'm sad cause now I'll have to wait for your updates -3

  • This is SO SO SO SO SO ADORABLE! Seriously, I just loved your video. You kind of inspire me, Emma :)

  • the sweater song is actually quite good if you add more to it could be great.

  • The Polyester Sweater of Loneliness should definetly be a real song...

  • man i totally miss your videos

    they are defiantly my favorite on youtube : )

  • Comment removed

  • I'n surprised they didn't arrest you for filming in a plane... XD

  • dude, you need to make ' like a polyester sweater' into a song. its brilliant and i would definalty buy it off itunes :)

  • That last bit was rather poetic :)

  • The cadencing in your voice and general way you speak reminds me a great deal of Tina Fey

  • You words always make me smile. I could listen forever. :)

  • I just read the description. You told me where the bacon's from. FAIL.

  • What's that breakfast place called? I think I might dream of that bacon and I'm going to new york in august and must fulfill my dreams.

  • Your New York videos always make me ridiculously hungry.

  • A truly John Green calibre "Thoughts From Places" video. Well done madam.

  • This is one of my favourite posts ever. You should be a columnist, I would read your articles.

  • You should write a book.

  • God, your so deep, I love it

  • You speak so precisely and ur descriptions are even more vivid than the video, this is really good!

  • This was just corny as hell but cute as anything!

  • ur really good at narrating i can't stress this enough!

  • This was very very beautifully done :) Thank you :)

  • I would love to visit this, baby and dog, New York City.

    Oh' one day.

    Your tour of bacon was amazing!!

  • Please load up more funny videos!!

  • So fuckin boring!

  • you are a gem!

    

  • Nanny, nanny, rich kid, nanny, nanny, rich kid, funny dog.

  • Omg, your vlogging style is a carbon copy of what the vlogbrothers do

  • Awww. I liked this. ^_^

  • please write a book!

  • You should write a book so that I can buy it and thoroughly enjoy reading it!

  • why isn't frozen yoghurt sold in England? Why hasn't some American chain decided to sell it here? I've never had it.

  • @InnocenceExperience that is so sad :( (although i prefer ice cream)

  • @FlyingPigscanfly711 thanks for your sympathy :-) Maybe I could just get some yoghurt and freeze it...is that the same?

  • @InnocenceExperience i would guess so i've never tried...

  • @FlyingPigscanfly711 I'll look it up. The only other thing I think we don't have is corn dogs. tc

  • @InnocenceExperience i have never had a corn dog because i think they smell weird so i won't be able to tell you what it's like

  • be my life guru please

  • That was fun. I felt like I was there with you.

  • For some reason I was waiting for you to say "Hank, I'll see you on Wednesday" at the end.

  • @ajaandkimmy who´s henk?

  • @MovieFreak880 This was almost the perfect "Who the eff is Hank?" moment!

    He's from the Vlogbrothers. They inspired Elmify's version of Thoughts From Places

  • @ajaandkimmy oh.. okay! thx ;d

  • it all sounds highly enjoyable..

  • i need to be rowed back by a friend - this guy i like confused me and our conversation was basically: him: "how was it?" (reference to the "piggyback wars" we have at lunch) me "fine ... how was ur day?" him: "i meant the piggy back wars! i dont give a sh*t about your day."

    yeah. we all have guy trouble.

  • Lucky, you saw H2$. So how was Daniel's singing?

  • I enjoyed your song!

  • Im going tommorow. First time. I CANT wait. I mean i was handiling it just fine until i watched this. Now i can NOT handle it. :D

  • Aw what a sweet video (:

  • you're amazing!!!!!!

  • ...You SURE you're not an English major?

  • Omigod that was so weird for a second I thought that sea creature was crawling over the bacon....

  • I'm glad you got some awesome friend time; truly, it's what has always made me feel better as my routine of school-homework-boyfriend falls apart. Thanks for always being so awesome :D

  • I am jealous of you because of three things:

    -You went to New York

    -You got to see How to Succeed In Buisiness

    -and that bacon

  • PLEASE TELL ME YOU DIDN'T STAY AT THE "CARTER HOTEL" AND THAT THAT IS WHAT WAITS FOR ME NEXT MONTH! lol

    ps: thanks for all the NY videos, they've been helpful for my investigation befor I actually travel :D

    ps2: ELMIFY ROCKKKKSS <3

  • I'm not a huge theater fan but I totally want to see How to Succeed in Business.

  • i love when you talk and pretty words come out! <3

  • You should come to Copenhagen and I'll make you some even more delicious honey-bacon!

  • God you are so adorable

  • Ah, New York! I saw How To Succeed just two weeks ago myself. Not the most profound show, but definitely a lot of fun. :)

  • @o2mallibubaby Hans Christian Andersen :-)

  • You're wonderful.

  • Guy hits his head at 0:52! :P

  • As of late, thinking about New York has made me pretty sad. My college just outside of NYC ended up offering me the bare minimum of financial aid so I can't attend school there. Watching your videos about the city reminds me that I can still get there, no matter what. Thank you for that.

  • @makenice77 That's beautiful :)

  • i really wanna try that bacon too. what's the name of the place?

  • OMG i absolutely love the way you speak

  • i like dat, it was good :)

  • I'm travelling to New York early next year and this video is making me very excited! I'm from Australia and I've never been out of the country so I'm exceptionally excited...maybe too excited seeing as it's still 6 months away but yeah...anyway the point of this comment was, are there any places you suggest I go? Any resteraunts you suggest I eat at? etc. :)

  • I really love your videos, they are always so thoughtful and funny. xxx

  • Whoopie Goldberg! For real! :D

  • Very nice...you get better with each video.

  • Three people don't wear polyester sweaters well.

  • I too was dumped at the end of my school year. Also, I was brought back from my depths of sorrow by my close friends. Without them I really dont know if I would be moving out of my bedroom, let alone getting a new job or going to the gym etc etc. It's really weird how these things happen. And when they are happening you cant imagine anyone else going through them as well, while in reality they are happening all the time.

  • how can somebody not like this... Anyway, I'd say that your videos are one of the rare ones with "thumbs down" percentage less than 1%

  • just awesome.

  • I don't think you know how awesome you are. Really, I love you.

  • you always leave me thinking

  • I hope you played Nanny Nanny Rich Kid.

  • @betsyismadeofawesome Funny Dog! ;)

  • i loved how to succeed in business, one mont ago i was in new york also with good friends ( i went with my classmates)

  • Loved it. Especially how you were honest about how nothing deep or profound was going through your head, but in the end you still managed to make a really good point about life and friendship. awesome! :)

  • What's awesome about this video is that I quite literally am going to do the same thing next weekend. Visiting a good friend in NYC. Going to see How to Succeed. Likely getting up to mischief. Hopefully this is an indicator that my trip will be as stellar as yours :]

  • I always love your videos, and this was no exception. I was just in NYC myself recently, although I saw Catch Me If You Can instead of How to Succeed. I gotta say that I'm a bit jealous that you got to see Dan Radcliffe in action - how was he? Oh, and P.S. I would definitely buy your "Polyester Sweater" song off iTunes.

  • That was lovely :)

  • MEN, can't live with um' and can't live with um' - Yes, I know what I said. Where most break-ups would stunt a writers ability, you've only become better for it. I've only been to NY a few times but I completley understand it's pull. Please keep these videos coming. I so look forward to them.

  • Elmify, you are amazing.

  • Profound, eloquent and entertaining as always. Im sorry dudes are dumb sometimes.

  • aww :)

  • @PeriwinkleJanelle Thank you, you're so sweet! :)

  • Amazing video :)

  • I am extremely jealous that you saw Daniel Radcliffe on broadway!!!

  • Ps. You almost make me want to take baking lessons x)

  • my heart uses the same amount of blood to love this video as it does for the vlogbrothers' thought from places videos. I discovered you yesterday during a boredom spasm and I will admit, its almost shameful knowing that I've wasted time on youtube watching people talking nonsense and doing tireless stupid stuff instead of watching your pretty face make videos like these.

  • Ah I cant believe you got to see how to suceed in business lucky duck!. when I was there on a school trip we were riding a bus and we passed a huge crowd of people outside of the theater they all had cameras and papers turns out they were waiting for daniel radcliff to walk out we begged the bus driver to stop for just a second but barely missed him :( one of these days

  • I wish I had a friend like you!! I'm glad you had fun <3 :)

  • Awesomeness. You are lovely, milady

  • @potatomartin Just the one of Sebrina and I eating the chocolate waffle. I just wanted to show how last time i was there it was snowy, and that was the only snowy clip I had! :D

  • @HilarySwankfan24 Lucky lucky!

  • @josdabesteva It was pretty nice when I was there, but it was mid-May. I bet it's a lot hotter now!

  • @professortorcoolguy Thank you kindly! :D

  • @MeLaneyDay Indeed! He was great!

  • @kc8omg AHHH I SO SHOULD HAVE!

  • @greenschmoodle That would be excellent!

  • @MusicalGingerNinja Seriously?? I thought it was totally random!

  • @MichaelOhara She is quite nice! :D

  • @TheNevilleFangirl Awww! <33333

  • @missgenekelly That would be epic! An explosion of thoughts! AND PLACES! :D
