A trailblazer in the Philippine indie scene, Reese has brought her music to international shores like Japan, Singapore, New Zealand, and the USA. βA Song About Spaceβ from her debut album βArigato, Internet!β was chosen by NASA for their historic #LaunchAmerica campaign videos.
In 2018, she opened for Paramore's Tour Four and garnered praise from frontwoman Hayley Williams. She also opened for Oh Wonderβs Ultralife Tour in Manila, and has shared the stage with artists such as The Temper Trap, LANY, Purity Ring and Explosions in the Sky.
She takes slices of life and spin them into head-bopping melodies and heartwarming confessionals. With her signature wit and vocal looping prowess, Reese commands the stage and connects with people who appreciate general weirdness, injected into pop earworms.
In May 2021, she released her highly anticipated sophomore album, Time Well Spent.
Autopilot
Reese Lansangan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every bone in my body wonβt budge
Excuse me but my manners just left
The building oh, oh
My mind goes autopilot
When Iβm next to you, I donβt even know
Canβt remember words that come out
Iβm trying to figure out
How to make you stay longer
Donβt go home
Itβs a long way from here
Thereβs nothing to say
Nothing to make this feeling go away
Wait a minute
If youβre in it Iβm in it
Iβm in it.
Youβre more than I imagined
And Iβm shaking my head, girl you did good
My eyes are screaming βJust take my handβ
Iβm staring you down so hard
Would you do me a favour
Please stop being so charming, if you could
I can only take as much
And youβre pulling out all the stops
Iβm trying to figure out
How to make you stay longer
Donβt go home
Itβs a long way from here
Thereβs nothing to say
Nothing to make this feeling go away
Wait a minute
If youβre in it Iβm in it
Iβm in it.
Oh, oh, oh
Donβt you know
I get strung up
Watching you go, oh
Iβm trying to figure out
How to make you stay longer
Donβt go home
Itβs a long way from here
Thereβs nothing to say
Nothing to make this feeling go away
Wait a minute
If youβre in it Iβm in it
Iβm in it.
The song "Autopilot" by Reese Lansangan is about the feeling of being completely overwhelmed by someone's presence. The lyrics express the feeling of nerves taking over and the inability to act normally when in the presence of this person. The singer's mind goes on autopilot and they are unable to remember words or communicate effectively. They are caught up in their emotions and their physical response to the other person.
The singer expresses a desire to make the other person stay longer and not to leave, despite there being nothing particular to say or do to make the feeling go away. They are just caught up in the moment and the emotions of being near this person. The song is a testament to the power of attraction and the overwhelming feeling of being drawn to someone.
Overall, the song suggests that we can sometimes be overwhelmed by emotions when we are near someone we are attracted to, and that sometimes there is no logic or reasoning behind these emotions - we just have to let ourselves be taken over by them.

I feel nerves taking over
My anxiety is starting to overwhelm me
Every bone in my body wonβt budge
I am frozen in place due to my nervousness
Excuse me but my manners just left
I am so flustered that I am unable to behave properly
The building oh, oh
And it's being expressed in my physical movements
My mind goes autopilot
When I am around you, I become entranced and lose control of my thoughts
When Iβm next to you, I donβt even know
I am so captivated that I am unable to focus on anything else
Canβt remember words that come out
I get so tongue-tied that I cannot properly articulate what I am trying to say
Youβre tangling me up inside
Your presence is causing a chaotic and confusing feeling inside of me
Iβm trying to figure out
I am attempting to come up with a plan
How to make you stay longer
I want you to remain by my side for a longer amount of time
Donβt go home
Please do not leave just yet
Itβs a long way from here
The distance between here and your home is great
Thereβs nothing to say
There are no words that can accurately express my feelings
Nothing to make this feeling go away
There is no way to eradicate this intense emotion I am experiencing
Wait a minute
Hold on a moment
If youβre in it Iβm in it
If you decide to stay, I will stay with you
Youβre more than I imagined
You have exceeded my expectations
And Iβm shaking my head, girl you did good
I am in disbelief at how wonderful you are and am giving you praise
My eyes are screaming βJust take my handβ
I am silently begging you to hold my hand
Iβm staring you down so hard
I am intensely gazing at you
Would you do me a favour
Can you please help me out
Please stop being so charming, if you could
You are too charming for me to handle
I can only take as much
You are overwhelming me
And youβre pulling out all the stops
You are doing everything in your power to be appealing and magnetic
Oh, oh, oh
Exclamation of frustration or disappointment
Donβt you know
Are you aware of
I get strung up
I become highly emotional
Watching you go, oh
Seeing you leave causes me distress
Iβm in it.
I am committed to this intense, emotional experience
