Maybe because it has dialogue from the movie in it and you read it on Wikipedia and thought you would come in here and act like ooo I have seen the movie im a pretentious twat.
I've been there. Wish I would've just strayed too far into the wrong lane walking to the mall across the interstate looking and being exactly like this guy. Sometimes I obviously feel like being hit in the streets, any street by a fast moving car that doesn't give a shit I'm going out of my mind. And then when I saw a homeless dude not far from there I gave him my $300 parka when I saw him sleeping under a bridge in the winter and walked home freezing lookin like this dude, minus the parka.
it shows to me... those who think a thoughtless man walking down the street.... i have no clue of the world about me.. when the truth is this man contains the beauty of the world about us
I don´t know about U.N.K.L.E. but it was always been common knowledge that Thom Yorke was afraid of cars. ´They´ say that´s why he wrote Killer Cars for example well... what the reason is for this song... It´s better then great none the less...
Wow I never saw this before, it's great. I do remember hearing this won music video of the year when it came out (or at least was nominated for video of the year) here in the U.S.
some of it is beautiful but depressing. it's the genius of thom yorke, and this song sounds very much like both, but the video is inspiring and at least encourages me.
why was this video band in America lol please America is the most violent fucking place in the world more people die from gun violence there on west then in all the small wars goin on the planet America the blood hungry thas what .more then a million gun related death in america a year does sick shit not even that many died in vietnam then they do a year on our own american shooting each other sick fuck nation!!!
Don't generalise, friend. It's not like everybody over here is walkin around in the streets with machetes and AK's. It sickens me, all of the violence over here, not being able to walk out late at night for fear of mugging or some other ill fate.
"Banned" in America? What the hell are you talking about? Million gun related deaths per year? Try 30,000. That includes all deaths: Suicide, accidents, self defense, etc.
sarah palin and McCain take over the end is near they will atack Russi and Iran then the whole shit will hit the fan for america the end is near the republicans will steal the election once again stupid american people will allways be looser in my eyes all you people do is ruin lives .America should stop policing the whole world.leave the world alone America the wicked bitch of all country worse then the Nazi when they where in power!
even if my numbers where you still have a fucked country why the fuck you call me names cant you write to me with out insulting me you ignorant americans are all alike give them a gun argue with them they shoot first ask question later.your nation is a pile of shit hope it goes down the toilet.with the way your markets have crashed lately the end is soon when McCain and sarah psycho palin winn the end will be even faster for you America soon soon the end will be with you once mccain and palin
good I hope your fucking head blows up you damn infidel.wicked human you should pay for the horrible thing you country America has done to the world.your corrupted America mind fueling hatred across the world damn you America Dam you..
it's hard being american. so many of us try so frickin hard to change stuff, but the country's huge and our culture is sometimes pretty sick. Guaranteed depression. So it sucks that we both have so many problems and are (probably justifiably) so hated elsewhere. We're trying. Ignorance really isn't a choice when so many of us have no idea we're even ignorant. Like, the first symptom some americans see of how screwed up we are is people hating us. Which is hard to respond positively to.
This is one of those great videos where its open to interpretation and there could be several right answers and there are only a few things that are definite like the cross at the end.
It seems to me that the video could be about how people try to run over people who want to make their own path and find their own understanding.
When you finally find that understanding, nothing can overcome that realization. No one can destroy it. He casts off his afflictions and becomes mighty.
He become invincible in the end, and those who try to run him over find a wall they cannot take down.
Society doesn't care? All the man did was ignore the people who actually tried to help him. Include in your analysis: When people finally do try to lend a helping hand, oftentimes the person is so calloused and cynical he ignores or misinterprets the offer.
I havent seen this vid in forever. haha I remember when I first saw this video and I was like "Wow the the singer sounds just like the lead singer from Radiohead"
Notice how the muttering intensifies after he is hit by a car by the fifth time(03:35) it is like as if he was sure that the humanity was lost and was praying even harder. He then gets rid of the cross and gets ready for the crucifixion.
I am not a very Christian person, but i think this is sort of a modern version of Jesus' way to the mount calvary(the place of his crucifixion), the tunnel represents this path.
The whips of the roman soldiers are the cars that hit him.
His jacket might be the cross
And notice how it ends: he is in the same position of jesus during the crucifixion.
I think he may be muttering because of the pain he feels carrying the "cross" and that this muttering may be a pray.
The people are not being able to help even though they try to. The guy that appears in 01:43 and the black guy in 01:17 are people that feel his pain but are either afraid to help pr not whilling to.
One of my few truly favorites..Dig the ending.. hear Dj Shadow half part of Unkle at 3:20 then at 4:22 remindes me of his track Midnight in a perfect world on the cd Entroducing. On 12" vinyl remixes sounds familiar. thnx for posting !
sorry for the almost completely unrelated question but does anyone remember a clip where theres this african dude thats made of porcelain or something, and he keeps breaking of limbs and all...
no racism intended offcourse xD
again sorry for the unrelated question but ive really been looking for the song for a while now and its making me nuts...
I have a question...and I dont want to do not have respect to the subject (sorry for my terrible english) but the men in the video, when he talks, he make me remember one of the characters of southpar Timmy, that characters says all the time "Timmy!" and if you watch second 30'' you will see that this men says something like that, is not like an illnes or something???
rabit in your headlights christian suburbanites. i think hes talking abou t a general lack of respect and humanity among the righteous elite for people they deem uncouth or dirty or homeless or crazy or "on drugs" lets just punish people instead of trying to help them, right america?
Actually "Christian suburbanite" refers to the rabbit in the headlights..it's the same person. "washed down the toilet money to burn" - I think what the lyrics are saying here is how mundane and pointless one's life can be, when it's all about making and spending money. I could be totally off on this though, I don't know.
You know what I think is were all small in our own way stuck in this world and the headlights would be living (in its entirety) and this song is to encourage ourselves to greater things. To (literaly) Break Free from this world. To repent what holds us back and eventually well......be like this guy. fearless. Because fear holds us back from our imaginations. reality maybe. you get where im getting at guys?
I don't know if there's a conection between the lyrics and the video, I think there's a not so hidden message on it. For me at least it's like no matter how many times you fall, one day after all that you'll be unbreakable.
some people are telling me to check for the lyrics online. I do that sometimes. When there is like ONE WORD or LINE i dont understand but not for the whole damn song. Whats the connection to the lyrics and the video? Anyone know?
hey hiltonboy101 is that not the mark of a truely good music video, after all we see what we think is the meaning of a video and even if it is not what was meant by the group it does not matter because the meaning is what you think is applicable to your life or principles. I am sure there are people who think that there are meaningful meanings to a "Bangles" video, good luck to them I say ...
I get: a person trying to find The Way(or so he seems) and this is put in contrast with people driving (they know where they are and where they're going) as this man he's on the right path, he's on his way, but he is in a way in a more direct path than all the rest. he's fighting to find out the answer, to what? i dont know
maybe there is no "message" that most people posting on this vid want to know so badly and maybe the point of the video was to make people search for a meaning even though there isn't one
Yea cause i do not get the message? I mean nice music Truth but I can barley hear what he is saying. I mean getting hit by a car is beautiful? I just want to know the message and not what you think it is but like what the real message is.
the good thing about music is it means different meanings for different people. you might be like me and dont understand songs until you read the lyrics. try to look them up and you might be able to understand this song.
So there is NO MEANING or CONNECTION to the video and the lyrics of the song? People are saying OMG so beautiful. Yea the INSTRUMENTS are but lyrically I dont know what he is saying and therefore I have no idea what the video means.
No. I guess i dont. I thought art had a meaning. Also I would think the video and the lyrics would have some sort of connection. So art has no meaning?
I am not really asking for a MEANING I am asking for a connection. I guess i got to look up the lyrics because i can barely hear what he says. But its cool.

I am sure there are people who think that there are meaningful meanings to a "Bangles" video, good luck to them I say ...

I get: a person trying to find The Way(or so he seems) and this is put in contrast with people driving (they know where they are and where they're going) as this man he's on the right path, he's on his way, but he is in a way in a more direct path than all the rest. he's fighting to find out the answer, to what? i dont know
but he realizes it at 4:13
and discovers that its not about being on the path but after all is given up that we can be free of our own mind

Sample from movie Jacob's Ladder :
If you're frightened of dyin' and you're holding on...
You'll see devils tearing your life away.
But...if you've made your peace,
Then the devila are really angels
Freeing you from the earth.....from the earth....from the earth

I don't hear it in this video, but it's there in the version of the song I have on mp3. Excellent song... this one always hits me hard.

The meaning of the song is: if you get hit by a car several times,you become immune.End of story.

maybe there is no "message" that most people posting on this vid want to know so badly and maybe the point of the video was to make people search for a meaning even though there isn't one

Yea cause i do not get the message? I mean nice music Truth but I can barley hear what he is saying. I mean getting hit by a car is beautiful? I just want to know the message and not what you think it is but like what the real message is.
DBrown877 4 years ago
the good thing about music is it means different meanings for different people. you might be like me and dont understand songs until you read the lyrics. try to look them up and you might be able to understand this song.

No the video. I mean whats the meaning of the video?
DBrown877 4 years ago
first try to understand the song and after that you will see the hidden message. even for videos it has different meanings.

So there is NO MEANING or CONNECTION to the video and the lyrics of the song? People are saying OMG so beautiful. Yea the INSTRUMENTS are but lyrically I dont know what he is saying and therefore I have no idea what the video means.
DBrown877 4 years ago
Why are you so hung up on "meaning" and "connection"? You do understand what art is, right?
Jacktwo 4 years ago
No. I guess i dont. I thought art had a meaning. Also I would think the video and the lyrics would have some sort of connection. So art has no meaning?
DBrown877 4 years ago
Art doesn't have to have meaning, no. Certainly not in the directly literal way you seem to be demanding.
Jacktwo 4 years ago
I am not really asking for a MEANING I am asking for a connection. I guess i got to look up the lyrics because i can barely hear what he says. But its cool.
