That's such a good photo of him, with his casual sideways glance and subtle smirk

cool dan, wheres the candle haul

Yes to forever home full of rainbows!!! That photograph is stunning I kinda assumed it was taken on tour, backstage, possibly even by Mark? But I could be totally off. The flooring does look to be going in different directions and the wall seems to be warm brown wood. Any idea what that shape is directly behind him?

Wow Dan. But at least you have one large expensive candle from your best friend.

sorry im dragging this for the THIRD TIME onto this page. I'm emotional. Hes too good. I'm proud, I'm happy, I'm excited. psst, im still v much a sucker for phil hes too pretty

im in love with this photo and i really need to go demon phannie for a second... im in canada and respect the boys privacy so i am NOT trying to stalk them but do we have any guesses on the objects in the background? i totally feel like phil was with dan wherever he made his vid and the lights would suggest maybe they were taken the same place? im wondering a studio at youtube london or something maybe? idk but to me the object behind phil almost looks like a bench or stairs or something idk

It looks like a theatre chair? And maybe the brown wood is the edge of a stage? Could it be in a tour venue? And therefore the lights are those for the stage during tech rehearsal?

Probably not, but just throwing it out there.

Looks like a chair to me, not sure though.

Big photo:
A little bit lighter:

That looks like the II denim jacket too so I feel like it was most likely taken while they were on tour last year; no idea where though!

Phil is now #1 on YouTube trending. Just spent some time reporting the comments. Honestly why is the downvote even still a feature?

So....is this him trying to subtly imply he has
1. Dated a lot, but unsuccessfully,
2. A lot of friends turned out to be snakes
3. While cryptic not meant to be analyzed, genuinely just about his hoard of candles

'K then. Strange thing to tweet.

I assumed Phil’s just on their living room floor. I’m just admiring his face and how he looks in those jeans. Intrigued how they got the rainbow lights like that, it’s very effective.

Candle haul, Daniel, we’ve waited like 2 years, get a wiggle on.

Most of the time i don't try to understand what Dan says, i take it as one of those numerous cryptic things that actually don't make much sense but are "on brand"

I think it’s a tweet from his drafts but a really weird thing to tweet and then bounce. Especially because he also liked one merch tweet.

Who would he have dated? No, this tweet is weird but it makes some sense. A meaningful relationship is not inherently romantic. This doesn't even imply his friends turned out to be snakes.

As long as he has more candles than friends, this tweet is true. Considering that they have a LOT of candles, it's just an attempt at humor I guess? The "and it feels right" bit does imply getting rid of some toxic people maybe. But I'm not relating this to dating at all.

Just seems like a normal Dan joke to me. Self deprecating on the surface but not even that really negative. I mean if you consider it based based in reality we know they've got an easy half dozen candles at least. And tbh if I had half a dozen meaningful relationships I'd be pretty content in life. Just means you're picky about who you let in your life like that.

Also, what Ablissa said. Meaningful =/= romantic.

I took this as not having a lot of meaningful relationships frienship wise - we kind of know they don't have that big of a group of friends, they joke a lot about not having friends outside each other and Dan's comment on his bday cake come to mind - not having enough mates to share it with.

But it's also an on-brand relatable #sad tweet so I wouldn't read too much into it

It could also be one of those sappy “I have everything I need tweets” but in Daniel Howell speak

3 and kinda 2 I'd say if I had to analyse it. It's a joke but if I had to interpret it I'd say he means he doesn't have many people he feels really close to? Kind of makes sense since he doesn't seem to be the type to have a million friends. Which, same, but I don't even have nice candles.

Still thinking about how funny Phil is when he talked about looking at the sideboobs, he is so underrated really. His humor is level A.

So happy to see him get his moment to shine too... youtube has finally adjusted the trending algorithm in the right direction with a focus more on content creators.

Agreed. I have been casually quoting the entire video off and on all day. He was on fire!!

Dan........ why did you make me watch this.
(nsfw video)

Why did I watch the whole thing should have stopped after the first second
