Miley Cyrus - 7 Things - ASL Song

Miley Cyrus' hit song "7 Things" performed in ASL by me, Stephen Torrence. Lyrics and gloss below as always (and captions by Drew Jaynes!). This one goes out to my homies Jed and Kevin. I have no idea why I slogged through over 20 takes to make this happen for y'all...

I probably shouldn't say this
MAYBE I SHOULD-NOT SPEAK
But at times I get so scared
BUT SOMETIMES I AFRAID
When I think about the previous
I THINK-ABOUT PAST
Relationship we shared
CONNECTION

It was awesome but we lost it
THAT AWESOME, BUT DISCONNECT
It's not possible for me not to care
I LOOK-BACK, CANT FORGET
And now we're standing in the rain
NOW RAIN, TWO-OF-US HERE
But nothing's ever gonna change
BUT THIS CONTINUE
Until you hear, my dear
UNTIL YOU HEAR, SWEETHEART

The 7 things I hate about you!
7 REASONS WHY I HATE-YOU
The 7 things I hate about you, oh you
7 REASONS WHY I HATE-YOU, HATE YOU
You're vain, your games, you're insecure
YOU VAIN, PLAY, WEAK
You love me, you like her
YOU LOVE-ME, LIKE-HER
You make me laugh, you make me cry
YOU FORCE-ME LAUGH, FORCE-ME CRY
I don't know which side to buy
DONT-KNOW WHICH BELIEVE

Your friends, they're jerks
YOUR FRIENDS AWFUL
When you act like them, just know it hurts
YOU COPY-THEM, I HURT
I wanna be with the one I know
I WANT RECONNECT
And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do
AND 7TH REASON WHY I HATE-YOU
You make me love you
YOU FORCE-ME LOVE-YOU

It's awkward and silent
NOW I FEEL AWKWARD
As I wait for you to say
I WAIT
What I need to hear now
FOR-YOU TELL-ME
Your sincere apology
YOU SORRY
When you mean it, I'll believe it
YOU HONEST, I BELIEVE
If you text it, I'll delete it
YOU {TEXT}, I IGNORE
Let's be clear
OK?
Oh, I'm not coming back
I NOT GO-TO-YOU
You're taking 7 steps here
YOU MUST COME-TO-ME

[chorus]

And compared to all the great things
COMPARE THOUSAND WORDS
That would take too long to write
I MAYBE WRITE
I probably should mention the 7 that I like
I MUST SAY 7 GOOD WORDS

The 7 things I like about you!
7 REASONS WHY I LIKE-YOU
Your hair, your eyes, your old Levi's
YOUR HAIR, EYES, OLD PANTS
When we kiss I'm hypnotized
KISS-YOU, ENJOY
You make me laugh, you make me cry
YOU FORCE-ME LAUGH, FORCE-ME CRY
But I guess that's both I'll have to buy
BUT I ACCEPT-ALL

Your hands in mine
HAND++
When we're intertwined, everything's alright
{HANDS TOGETHER}, ALL OK
I wanna be with the one I know
I WANT RECONNECT
And the 7th thing I like most that you do
7TH REASON WHY I LIKE-YOU
You make me love you, you do
YOU FORCE-ME LOVE YOU
