A trailblazer in the Philippine indie scene, Reese has brought her music to international shores like Japan, Singapore, New Zealand, and the USA. โA Song About Spaceโ from her debut album โArigato, Internet!โ 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 Wonderโs 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.

Reese Lansangan Lyrics

And my browserโs wide open
Are you even online?
Hoping for a green dot
Beside your name
Waiting for you is my favourite game
But wonโt you please let me sleep this time
Hoping for a tweet that would work for me
So you can talk to me
Go on and start a conversation with me
And itโs a mobile sign right next to you
Iโm reading through the messages that I sent to you
Yesterday and the day before
Because today you chose to ignore me
Wonโt you please go online?
Since we barely see each other, is it such a bummer
To just send me a message
โHowโs it going?โ
Please, take me out, itโs fine
I could wait on you my whole life, my whole life
But Iโd rather sit right next to you tonight
Well itโs 4AM
And you betcha weโre talking
And I wonder, are you sick of me?
Are you just being polite โcause itโs way past three
And I wanna say good night โcause itโs
The proper thing to do
I really wanna stay awhile but
Weโve got some things to do in the morning
Weโll do it again in the morning
Wonโt you please go online?
Since we barely see each other, is it such a bummer
To just send me a message
โHowโs it going?โ
Please, take me out, itโs fine
I could wait on you my whole life, my whole life
But Iโd rather sit right next to you tonight
Tell me are you gonna make me wait forever
Are we gonna get through
This change of weather
Are we ever gonna get it on?
ISnโt it enough that we get along so well?
Please go online
Youโve got a mobile phone and Iโm so alone
I could be watching stupid things on YouTube
But then again, why wonโt you
Please, take me out, itโs fine
I could wait on you my whole life, my whole life
But Iโd rather sit right next to you tonight
Please go online
The song "Go Online" by Reese Lansangan is about the difficulties of maintaining a long-distance relationship in the age of digital communication. The song describes the singer's frustration with the lack of response from her significant other in the midst of constant online presence. The lyrics convey a sense of desperation and longing as the singer spends late nights browsing social media platforms and messaging her partner in the hopes of getting a response.
The main theme of the song is the disconnect between virtual and physical communication. The singer's partner may be constantly available online, but their lack of effort to connect in real life is causing strain in their relationship. The song urges the partner to take action and engage in meaningful conversation outside of the digital realm.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of time and the urgency of the situation. The singer wonders if the relationship is sustainable in the long run and if their partner is truly committed to making it work. The repetition of the plea to "go online" reinforces the importance of communication in relationships, especially in the digital age.
