@Artfanatic01 The video and lyrics both dominated with natural imagery, specifically pertaining to the sky and plants. From the video, I thought it was about two girls falling in love with one guy, he marries them both but society frowns upon that, even though it is natural to have more than one mate (in nature's term; look at animals). I think the two women kill themselves in a way to make it look like the guy murdered them. That way, they won't be judged in the afterlife for being together.
I can compare this video to being fed two dozen raw oysters while hanging from one leg upside down. Violently spinning out of control for 4 minutes and 23 seconds and not throwing up. I guess that could be a good thing.
Now they all can be together forever and ever in the in-between world where only their love matters...Such a beautiful dark love story displaying one of love's many faces and a beautiful dark one at that :)
Depends where you looked in the world. Depending on your geological location- One man was promoted to marry twins because they were believed to be the same person.. I think this song is interesting and beautiful. Very interesting message.. also very sad.
The song is about the heart break Cocorosie experienced at the hand's for their gypsy father. He cheated on his mother a lot, and Cocorosie grew up in the back of an old car, being taught by their Anthropological parents. "Our hair is in the garden" (notice the hair in Bianca & Vicki's faces. In other words, the video tells the story of lovers, but the lyrics are about their father (check out werewolve "he had your hands and my father's face, another different vampire"
My guess is the two sisters were very sheltered, and the the guy was a traveling gypsy. They met and fell in love. Because gypsies were executed at the time the video is set in, the guy was hanged. When the girls found out he was going to be hanged, they poisoned themselves, and died together right before him. It really doesn't have anything to do with "polygamy", they were just both in love with him, and he was in love with both of them.
@thelexietaylor If I'm correct it's about a polygamist family. And the man gets caught and the women are questioned but get out of it but the man gets hung and they kill themselves with poison.
So beautiful song and music video, my favourite!! So dark, creepy and full of sorrow. I think its not easy to understand the song and everyone can understand it another way.
the song is all about a Warlock (male Witch) and the Puritanical folk, a few family, of his two"victims". The bottle contains some magical , deadly waters, A willing sacrifice. Their senses through the elements of Nature suggests shamanistic Sight ... in the West. They sing their story from their dark, bloody afterlife. Boldly embraced.
@julixpie LAWL, how is this hipster? what ever the fuck that means, 'hipster'. you're the kind of people ruining society by making up labels and putting it on things that you yourself define as those labels. Get a life, A GOOD TASTE IN MUSIC.
love the details in the video, eg. the juxtaposition of their immaculately starched dresses with the emotions running wild in their hearts. and the disturbing certainty in which the deed was done. except the hanging could have been more elegantly done... :/ unless the crudeness of it all was intentional (?)
I've been lukewarm towards this song since first hearing it, being more a fan of their eclectic electric side. After watching the video, I wholeheartedly love it. It puts in to perspective just how amazing they are as artists, not just singer-songwriters. Thank you CocoRosie for your beautiful and imaginative minds.
I love this but is anyone else annoyed by how frequent and "common" the animal sounds are? Like the cat and mouse/rat sounds are totally cheesy and not fitting in with the rest.
@smallhoundlike Yes! They put me off too, as does the sort of burping noise towards the end as he's getting hung. It doesn't ruin the song for me, but they are kind of out of place.
@smallhoundlike the animal sounds (as well as the noises) are the key to complete the whole story. without them, this song goes plain and incomplete. if you have noticed about the lyric, then you will also see why CocoRosie put the noises into the song; the scene isn't empty, you're in the forest and in front of a huge willow tree. the noises are "not fitting in with the rest" because of the mismatching gains uneasy feeling to the audiences, which is essential for this creepy song.
im in love with you two! inspiring to say the least!
