@Bosskification Almost positive the video is a metaphor for the fear we have for death. I am also assuming the colorful woman is the representation of life and her ability to push us forward, even though we know death is all that awaits.
@thedangerpickle no sure; I think it's about the two going through a divorce; her second thoughts; their fights and "screams that all sound the same."
I might and certainly may be totally off. Either way I really like the song and the video is interesting, although I'm not sure what it all means. great music. thanks current 89.3 minneapolis
We're witnessing a new era growing,its been here a while but society is blinded by the crap YOU have all made popular.I hope this rap and pop crap is wiped away by the so called "indie"movement Need more of M83, Airborn Toxic Event, Naked and Famous,Cage the Elephant, Gotye ,Grouplove, Joy Formidable,etc.It has the potential to destroy the awful stuff I refuse to call music,the crap that you have all made popular.Similar to when grunge destroyed hairmetal, can happen but u gotta help
@supernicewitit I completely agree with you I listen to a lot of these bands you mentioned. Luckily I have a radio station in my area that plays them.
@supernicewitit all you'll do is turn indie into popular music, and from there it'll turn back into the pop we've all learned to hate. all music must exist, so we can tell when a song is good, like this one :) if every song was this good, then none would be good at all.
@supernicewitit You probably only listen to mainstream rap, which, yes, is shit. However there is tons of beautiful hip hop music that is underground.
It's called supply and demand, jackass. If people like it, then it'll stick around for a while. You don't get to decide what is and isn't music. People decide that for themselves. Honestly, you sound like some poor old fossil that can't adapt to the changes of society. I grew up in the 90s, so I've heard the changes and I can say that music has definitely changed with tastes and the new generation, but there is plenty to choose from
This is one of the best videos of this type ive seen in a very long time. Great imagination, would love to read a breakdown analysis on its meanings and many symbolism's. Great song too!
you will be sad before my granpa died he told me to be honest so people plz let people im out there plz subscribe plz im only 11 so i really want subscribers so thumbs this so people know i out there plz god bless u
@skippydang1 to be honest, I think it's about losing your way because the one you love has died. The lyrics and the video (the dark colors in the video) point to that this person is depressed because everything they had known is gone.
Except that woman who is the light, lifting up their spirits and telling that person to keep on going, and it's sort of a "guardian angel" that fights their demons.
@skippydang1 Hahaha.. totally reminded me of Aku from Samurai Jack too. My theory is that the creature is her "Ship" that will "fly her safe to shore"
this is absolutely my favorite band right now and this song is one of my favorites by them!! if you havent heard anything else by them i suggest you look some stuff up!!
@utube5648 people dont know what good music is or too lazy to explore for new music and just wait for main stream stuff to come out. i agree with you though.
@Megachristopher1 like you know why we listen to music? if so you should tell someone because i have read a dozen books on it and after years of research some of the smartest people in the world don't even know why we listen to music.
@proodoodaboochoo Why the anger? I don't mean why listening to music simulates the brain or whatever but i mean that good music can appeal to someone who listens to a different type of music and is truly soulful. "Sexy and I know it" is not a soulful song and does not feel insperational like this song does and if you think otherwise you must be very mistaken.
I absolutely love this video. I love how the animation syncs with the music so well. I know videos with similar art styles have existed in the past (float on and such) but I haven't been this motivated by a song like this in almost a decade.
Um. Well I love the song hardcore...have for a while now...but the uhhh...music video is a little...incoherent? Unrelated? Something like that...hmm...
