What it is
"Rose-Colored Boy" is a song by Paramore from their 2017 album After Laughter, released as its fourth single in March 2018. It pushes back against pressure to stay positive and smile when you don't feel like it. Its music video satirizes a fictional 1980s morning talk show hosted by the band, in which executives pressure the hosts, especially Hayley Williams, to keep the mood upbeat.
