Daft Punk - Prime Time of Your Life

[CToanMusic]

WHY DO I KEEP WATCHING THIS!!!!!!!

[CToanMusic]

i understand this now

[zetaro128]

Come on, it's obviously about anorexia. She saw everybody else as skeletons and herself as overweight, as you could see in the pictures. After she kills herself, it looks over all the same photos and it shows that she's actually very skinny.

I suppose that the bit at the very end is showing her in heaven, where she's skinny like everybody else.

[Jimmybobburns]

daft punk at 00:50

[Treewind]

did anyone else notice skeleton Britney Spears on the door inside the bathroom? Its from her greatest hits album (My Prerogative) and you can see the poster at 2:06.

My take on this is that she sees her self as fat and everyone else as skinny and beautiful (the skeletons are there to symbolize the extremes there are in tv and cinema). She wanted to be like them but infact she wasn never fat.

Its the tv and tabloids that hurt the young minds into thinking they aren't perfect.

Daft Punk FTW

[CloudPoppieOpiate]

What is the meaning of this video?

[BenBopper]

I wish they would have the old 2000 Daft Punk back, when it was the Interstella years. Now they have creepy stuff like this and Technologic.

[MrLespaul166]

them and tool made the wierdest music vids

[supermushy]

my interpretation of the video is that she is different to everyone else so she tries to make herself like everyone else but ends up commiting suicide in the process because she saw everyone as skeletons

[deadKEnterprises]

3:09 for another shot at skelton daft punk

[deadKEnterprises]

i just love it when skeletons bitch slap eachother.

[MrTocoral]

Moral of the video : Do not try to look like the others because you're good in your own way.

[XCasperProductionsX]

daft punk cameo 0:51

[deadKEnterprises]

@XCasperProductionsX

very well could be. but the low quality of the video to make it feel old, makes it hard ot tell.

[noonecfcf]

WTF the girl at 2:15 is completely different from the 1st girl!what the hell?

[MrTocoral]

@noonecfcf Of course she is different. She saw the guys at the TV and on her family photos, so she thinks she is fat compared to them. That's how she sees herself.

[FRAJAHEHI]

@noonecfcf the girl at 2:15 is wearing two layers of make up/masks

the skin and the "muscle" so she seems chubby.

also she is meant to seem chubby,she thinks she is so she sees herself like that

[wallonz1n]

only 3x $39,95

Ps:Skeleton not incluide xD

[tjw253]

My interpretation is, adults are dead inside, keep your inner child alive. I suggest watching anime (like the Daft Punk's Interstella 5555!) and laughing at fart jokes!

[dogwithwings]

28 people are scaredy cats! 640 people are brave.

[SubtleDemise]

lol i was laughing at the first half because fake skeletons are funny to me for some reason...but then it was like...yikes...but any of the music videos from Broken are 1000 times more gruesome and i wouldn't consider those disturbing either lol

[ChannelTravis]

One of the most disturbing music videos I've seen......

[miltonatchet]

@ChannelTravis you obviously havent seen a chris cunningham video then

[xxxrollingrockxxx2]

is it me or skeletons scary as shit

[CarbonatedCube]

Moral of the story - stop making fat kids feel worse than they already do. I think that's the moral.

[CobraKiIla926]

WTF

[phimparo]

Este video esta genial, pobre tonto aquel q no lo valora... Es Daft Punk!!!

[eclecticbuni]

omg, now thats low self-esteem...

[roboduke1086891]

that is scary

[foxdiny]

I had to watch this twice to finally understand the message, it's all about to pay attention to the picture when she is jumping the Rope..

[johnUS7]

umm im stupid...can someone explain me the message of the song?

[C3Z4rtv]

@johnUS7 It means, the girl thinks she looks fat infront of all the skinny people (skeletons) and so she cut her skin off to look LIKE a skeleton but then she passes out and everything goes wrong.

[johnUS7]

@C3Z4rtv Yeah I just notcied that cuz i looked at the desease's name or watev it is... =) thanks tho

[Homerdoh31]

@johnUS7 don't do drugs

[Corkinthedork]

@Homerdoh31 false hahaha

[Xenanutra]

I hate this video because it always disturbs the crap out of me. But then I love it because its Daft Punk and its meant to disturb you so it gets its point across. I always forget how disturbing it is though so when I watch it I'm always like, DDDDDDDDDDDD:

[Dragonquester01]

love the song but i don't get it

[MasterFoMagic]

thats messed up

[Recedebo]

i don't get it, is this about anorexia?

[Exli3r]

@Recedebo Maybe

[johnUS7]

@Recedebo Yeeeep

[Recedebo]

i don't get it, is this about anorexia?

[pedopwn]

i dont get it...

how is it scary?

the little girl is just crazy.

[pleasemadam]

best music video ever

[melvindoo30]

Powerful video, song is great aswell.

[waddles3900]

this video is really freaky. never watching it again

[BobTim]

I can only think of how a modern-day director would put more organs and blood in there... but that'd obscure the point. This is just "eh, w/e".

She's not dead yet! She moves her foot at 3:16 and 3:19 :O

[TheMusicLeak]

shut the fuck up 12 year olds

[koolkatrebel]

OMFG!

Scared the crap out of me when she cut herself

:(

[buffon16684]

one suggestion: never watch this at 1 am in the morning or u won' t be able to sleep

[koolkatrebel]

I watched this at 5:30pm and I still wont be able to sleep...

[TookYerJob1]

god what a great video. So truthful

[greg7k]

cool

[GodoftheHanged]

I saw this video 3 yrs ago. 2 1/2 yrs ago my daughter was born. And this scares the fuck out of me more and more every time I see it. That is part of what great art is.

[methylethyldeth]

This video is really sad. :(

[Ethan07895]

This is the scariest vidoe i have ever seen in my life. Girls arent supposed to cut them selfs up like that and take off there skin im scared

[Jordyy11122244t]

ifu read the video descripition it says the music video is banned. thats because it so disturbing haha

[killerSkeleton]

@ vanillaaxd

I agree with you !

[vanillaaxd]

She was thinkig she's fat... But it was anorexia... It's a good video to alert the people about it... :/

[ClockworkIndustries]

0:51 Daft punk cameo! Heh.

[ShadowxSlNz]

uh im not sure but so she goes crazy and she turns emo o.o

[thaatxboss]

It's about anorexia.

[ShadowxSlNz]

ohhh i thought thats she just goes crazy then she wants to be like the others

[aricuzzi]

Wired video ha. The vid looks like its about a person/child who was happy at one point of her life (prime time) and her present is nothing compared to what she was like when she was happy. SO SHE TRIMMED OF A FEW LBS. LOL! Got Bored of explaining. Check my video response. Check out my sons prime time.

[uniquebart]

love this track!!

into this one too at the moment

/watch?v=x4jXggZBwYU

[davedabrogan]

I completely get the meaning of this video.

[videoboygeorge]

@davedabrogan what was it?

[davedabrogan]

@videoboygeorge Isn't it obvious?

I don't remember anyomore. It's been a while since I watched the video.

[videoboygeorge]

@davedabrogan lol.

[Dancrof80s]

@davedabrogan what the meaning? it think i understand it.. but usually i overthink and get it wrong.

[J0kErEvan]

one of my friends belives all people are snake creatures... it's kinda wierd to hang with her... but it does make you think... maybe we are the ones who are crazy

[leotard9696]

i dont think she could have picked a weirder view of humans. monkeys would make more sense

[myriam425]

ouai vive aurelien1202 vive christophe willem et tous ses fans et vive le malheur de ceux qui laiment pas

[aurelien1202]

christophe willem c'est le meilleur myriam425 a raison

[myriam425]

hahahaha vive christophe willem

[myriam425]

jvouniquatous suce ta bitte

[rade155]

OMG what a scary video...

[eggsistoast]

Must we resort to name calling? Yes, yes we do.

Anyway, love this song, love the music video.

[jusTice95767]

2:34 scares the shit out of me

[aurelien1202]

pfffff va te faire enculé par le diable jvounikatousse pauvre tarlousse

[jusTice95767]

Its scary cos people in the world are like this and you people just think its funny.

[rade155]

Or cause you're stupid fucking moron... Ether one counts...

[myriam425]

jvounicatousse baise ta mere et vive christophe willem

[myriam425]

jvounikatousse je t encule

[hidnshadows]

is the person that says "don't do it, don't wait" in this MV the same one in revo 909 that says stop the music and go home? if so, could we assume that he's either bangalter or homem-christo?

[gdumais3]

easy boys, it's only a music video, yeah?

[Jvounikatousse]

Shut up you fucking cunt. I taught you mother how to write with my juice on her back.you little sissy bitch.

[Netikerty]

I basically got the message but what I don't get is why she sees herself as overweight in that jumproping picture but not in the other ones?!

[Jvounikatousse]

What's actually really scary is how DUMB you all are. Freaking creepy yeah... You douche...

[sampsonist]

At 1:45 because it's the 1st time I heard this version of this song I never notice that in the Alive concerts Daft Punk didn't really stretch the life sample but actully took it from this bit.

[Zerorebels]

kick ass video love it not creepy at all what the fuck are you stupid shit heads talking about?

[aricuzzi]

Check my House Hop Mix Out! My video is in the responses. Comment please im so lonely.

[ParadoxTheGreat]

That's probably, no, that IS one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen. It's not necarsarily the images that make it so disturbing, but more so the message that it conveys. After I watched this video for the first time, I couldn't stop thinking about it for about a week, and I have ADD, so what does that tell you?

[0cheef0]

creepy as shit

[Nisp]

Someone has rage issues.

[IvanTheTerrible66]

the message is creepy. do you not understand it?

[IvanTheTerrible66]

"You're all so fucking retards..."

okay

[Jvounikatousse]

"IvanTheTerrible66"

what kind of fucking loser does name itself like that? I mean you're so pathetic. You little cunt.

[IvanTheTerrible66]

dude its an inside joke. chill.

people are freaked out that little girls feel like they need to resort to hurting themselves. I think you should accept peoples opinions and stop swearing so much, its not neccessary.

[kztar621]

It's so obvious, the TV people, Britney Spears, the fake self-image, it's all about how media's sick perception of beauty make's impressionable people hurt themselves trying to emulate those fucking stereotypes, getting to the point of even killing themselves, maybe not like this, but by stoping eating or getting way too much plastic surgery.

[rkeitel]

aw dude..

[AndrewRuggiero]

I think the reason why daft punk made it kinda freaky is so it grabs our attention and it really makes it stay in our head, and really makes us see the true message they try to portray.

[nikkonaa]

true that

[katbeezee99]

umm... i did'nt think technology could get any creepier

[michey716]

Oh Okay now I get it. It might not be anorexia but just a girl seeing that shes not as good as everyone else. I think it's called body morph-something..

[michey716]

that last min just freaked me out!!

[jreqthek9]

I didn't think any Daft Punk video was creepier than "Technologic", but this one proved me wrong.

[theoneinsafety]

bad enough with the creepy freaking synthed out baby sounds in the beginning, then the video....

[Bryanperez468]

so she cuts her fat off to make her look skinny..but then dies

[eggy2125]

Anorexia?

Anyway I found Technologic creepier.

[ZolRing]

Anorexia seems the likely bet, the little girls weight balloons throughout the video and everyone is as thin ((as a skeleton)) so that really seems to make the most sense.

[eatcookies3]

love it when the skeleton pimp slaps the other one.

[smashmansnake]

Um... that's not disturbing...

(HEAVY SARCASM)

[locolatino8]

"Mommy, i see dead people" lol

[d8tona12]

i shit my pants when she was cutting her self

[d8tona12]

wtf i dont get this video

[HateCrewReaper]

what is happening in this video, is the girl is tripping out on some fucking strong acid, shes listening to prime time of your life, watching t.v., and halusinating everybody as skeletons, so when she sees shes not one of them so she decided to peel her skin off to be like the reste of them, but she was so high she didnt feel the pain... and died.. thats my hypothesis

[360flipproductions]

You should probably lay off the acid yourself if you totally believe thats what it was about.

[HateCrewReaper]

sorry dude, im no acid tripper!! that shit is way tooo fucked up man. anyways, i know thats not what the clip is all about, but dude, you have to admit that it could work XD!!!

[MasterClipEditor]

It's about Anorexia and how each and everyone of us is responsible for the disease, and the deaths that it causes

[sbhk1]

god this song sucks so fucking hard.

what a fucking waste of time :|

I thought it will be good after the stop of the repeated prime time of ur life thing after 2 mins..

[VinylKing999]

wasnt this video banned from being on TV

[captinesmack]

ok nvm aramab

[captinesmack]

ok i dont get what aramab is saying im confused

[captinesmack]

(gonna do it) now

(dont wait and)live it

(today is)the prime time of you life

lol

[aramab01]

obviously, the song reffers to peer pressure saying "its the prime time of your life " "DO IT" "DONT WAIT" and the girl sees skeletons and kills herself trying to be like them, hence she kills herself taking drugs and fitting in. its the downfall of a teens life in a world of media...... btw billy mays looked fantastic in the first few scenes

[ShorttGav95]

ive said that too

[Deckardpr]

OMG!

[PoeticTragedy7587]

ew EW EW!!!!!! WHEN SHE PEALS HER SKIN!!!! gaG....AWESOME SONG THOUGH!!

[idshifter]

Daft Punk always has the best videos. Always well put together and simplictic.

[NEOSAIYADJ]

this video is not purely about anorexia, it's about isolation. The girl feel different because she think she is fat and then she stay locked in her room during all the day, watching TV. I think there are many subtle ways to explain the video : teenage, isolation, psychology, anorexia, media, life, death...

[arod1122]

What a powerful video

[xirishkid93x]

This is thoroughly disturbing on all levels. O.o

[LRG06]

this is the first time ive seen this video and probably the last time. haha

still a great video none the less

[jamesacampbell20]

wtf

[Dawn0291]

this was disturbing

[UltraFlashlight]

OMG It's the Banana girl! I saw a clip of this on the internet and I was wondering where it came from!

[klf97]

i am not sure about this video, i saw it when i was 9 and it gave ALOT of night mares, i was afraid to be alone. but now i kinda think the meaning is the girl is either crazy or suicidal or maybe you guys are right and that shes afraid shes fat. but this video seriously freaked me out at the time. and now when ever i lsten to the song it brings back really creepy memorys. other than this video daft punk rocks!!!!!

[TheMarvelousMen]

Sorry to hear that. :/

This song is in fact about her fear of being fat- it's called anorexia and it's the theme of the video.

[aliensamuraipirate]

this is bizzare

[dudes420]

this video made me kind of dislike the song almost... whenever i listened to it before it was like an amazing uplifting song now its just sad and such when i think of that girl cutting her skin off

[yaynorth123]

this is the most strangest yet hypnotizing daft punk video

[losergrl1824]

i like this video even if it is creepy.

you learn a lesson.

you shouldn't believe in what you see.

i ask the people i mostly detest on their opinion and all i try to do is do the opposite.

[Dizzoma]

So the girl is actually skinny, but in her mind she thinks she's fat. So it is defiantly an anorexia kind of thing. That's why after she peels her fatness off and her parents come in crying, they show all the pictures again and she is a normal size showing that it was in her mind the whole time. But at the end she goes to jump rope with her friends in the skeletal world. haha sorry i dont really know the meaning of the ending.

[lunumx]

its a very good moral..but it made me kinda noxious

[SweetKundy]

um...what was the moral? i missed that..

[DjJikoku]

She is fat and everone around her is skinny

i think?

[SweetKundy]

thats what i thought =)

[benni2k]

SweetKundy:

she thinks shes fat..

its a story of a girl and anorexia..

sick song tho :)

[125035649721]

0:51 daft puk??

[iLive4DaftPunk]

see... at one point, she's really fat in the picture on her shelf of her jump-roping. but after she's dead, it shows her really skinny in that exact same photo or her jump-roping. sad video...

[iLive4DaftPunk]

This a creepyish video with a great point. Kids, teens... Anerexia is not the answer. you dont gotta be a "skeleton" to fit in

[TheRealAlexDickey]

I think that this is just about being in different in general and how people feel pressure to change so much that they do and then find that they had it right the way they were.

[Rovenx]

i love this song and it is a powerful clip to go with it. I don't usually get upset by alot of stuff, but thi is a very real thing and it makes me sad everytime i see it.

[djtonino87]

forse il video musicale piu scioccante che abbia mai visto in vita mia

[an0nymusBlu3]

why is this banned? I don't get why

[djtonino87]

because this video may be "shocking" sensitive people

[gutiarplyr411]

its gross

[awesomo79]

This Video is about Pier Pressure.

the Reason is Because on the T.V their is the skeleton's or skinny people. she sees some pictures of her with her mother,who is also a skeleton, then another picture of her with her friends, who are also skeletons, and the girl who is shown to be very fat. Then she goes into the bathroom and starts cutting of her skin

or her fatness, trying to become a skeleton or a skinny person.

[RockinPwny]

Wow.

Good point.

[WoWJakfrost]

I definantly think it's about anerexia, because we see a girl who isn't fat but she sees herself as such (when looking in the mirror) and she thinks that everyone else is skinny.

Since she isn't skinny it has to be a mental thing. Anerexia (spelling?) is dangerous cause it blinds people from logic (that they aren't fat).

The brain is a dangerous thing. Rock on DP

[GameLikeThe80s]

5/5

[Killerbrick]

Whoa!, this Shyt makes you think.... This video is about whatever YOU think it should be... Everybody has their own personal interpretation.... in that vain, this video rocks!!

[pieextatic123]

5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem.

I think that would go along with this video.

They don't like the way the star system is, and being skinny is in that system, and they want to show the effects and why it is stupid. That's my guess

[pieextatic123]

Damn Daft Punk, what the hell!

[Unessecary]

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking, the whole anorexic thing. ..man that has gotta smart. DX

[JunglemanG]

I concur, anorexia seems to be the dominant theme. Despite how skinny she looks in contrast to her friends in 3:45, she still perceives herself as being fat. It's a mental affliction that takes physical form, in that the one afflicted will always see themselves as fat, and will continually attempt to make themselves skinnier, at all costs.

[gazzola4]

oh my god this shit is so creepy

[agent00hoboman]

crazy bitch thats all i have to say

[Bohogren]

with all the skeletons on the tv and stuff, it seemed like there was a strong connection to the movie "They Live", if anyone's ever seen that... if there is a message at all it's probably closer to the anorexia thing though... not much in there to suggest we're being controlled and blinded from the "truth".

[123IOWNALL321]

Omg...

This looks like something I would see in a fucked up dream of mine.
