Interpol - Lights

[smokingsimple]

yep

In the futuristic days where

societies exceed in the world of completion.

where there is nothing better to do.

kind of want to run right now though

[Beezlepwns420]

what the fuck bro, this is a strange video, what is the white stuff?

[Xtratix]

@Beezlepwns420 cum

[DubstepYES]

I love Interpol!

[mariazo]

Marilyn Manson called, and wants his video back... I'm kidding these guys are good, and they acknowledge Manson's influence on their music.

[Cheesemaster890]

Asian Motionless in White.

[ihatecivicssomuch]

ahh i forgot what music sounded like.

[MrSkate4weed]

meh

[zeballos114]

people are so close-minded when it comes to art. This video is stunning, creative and original. I cant get enough of it.

[narreshramdayal]

EVER ONE MILLION VIDEO PLACED ON YOUTUBE, ONE HAS TO BE VERY IDIOTIC AND MAKE NO SENSE, IT JUST HAD TO BE THIS ONE

[imisswinniethepooh]

. . . ?

[ScentofLaceration]

What did she just sip through that straw? O.e. What am I watching.....

[lisacat95]

I like the song but I really don't get the video.

[kevinsayahofficial]

Pretty cool song

[airelless]

I wouldn't mind the advertisements so much if I could skip them, but the time it takes for the advertisement to load pisses me off.

[Quagmered]

There are a lot of ways to interpret the video. It can mean a lot or nothing to you, so I mean, I guess just watch and if you feel kinda artsy or something see if you can try to find your own meaning. The way one person sees isn't necessarily how others view it. Like all the cum comments, and etc. I think the various interpretations to this really obscure video is what Charlie White wanted viewer to think about first place.

[Quagmered]

The thing in the beginning mentioning pheromones (sexually attracting chemical) makes this a ritual for harvesting "pheromones", of if you want to interpret this in another way, it can mean beauty. It's a ritual for collecting beauty. The courtesans then prepare the body for harvesting. Yeah the stuff coming out of her mouth does look like milk//otherstuff, but you can interpret the video in a Freudian sense as well, so it can go that way too.

[arib3th]

@Quagmered This makes no sense. Or at least I'm not seeing the connections you're attempting to make. What does Freud have to do with anything?

[helo8471]

i saw a link to the video and clicked it and now i am wondering if that's milk or i have a wrong mind here

[thisguyagain1000]

For a slow song this gets my heart pumpin, the slowest I'm gonna kick your ass song ever...

[zythepsarian]

im sorry, but is this music?

[TheActive911]

Horchata???

[lildrummerboy22]

Check out "Island"!^^^^^^ its a good tune

[jreqthek9]

Look up the director, Charlie White (who also directed Interpol's "Evil" video). He's actually an established photography artist who's done some truly bizarre photo exhibitions.

[mq1602]

Superb Video concept!!! U gotta be tripping pretty hard for this to brew in ur brain... good thing it did, brilliantly executed.

[SuperThirdeyes]

Ok...what the fuck is happening, someone explain..

[arib3th]

@SuperThirdeyes Interpol presents a futuristic version of a harvesting ritual of a human, like the beetle formerly mentioned. The lyrics suggest that the person is being harvested of creativity, of independence, in a society that no longer is able to create their own. Instead, these institutions and rigid structures of society suck the creativity from people who can still produce originality and creativeness. Unable to escape, these people are compelled to expel their uniqueness.

[x1x2x3r]

I Love Interpol ♥

[lana51010]

this is fuckin gay. lol snortin cum haha

[MegaSlammo]

Hahaha it looks like cum.

[MrFlakydog]

[Munnsmoke]

3:19 Stealth piano?

[tecktokirk]

3:42 :ilike:



[CHALADEITALIA]

They should include the explanation with the video, it helps gain an even better perspective. I saw the video and then again after reading the explanation and it was even more beautiful after

[sarahmccrystal22]

God that is an incredible video

[24orever]

huh o.0

[miguelrockstar120]

symmetry

[lilravingvilletho]

this video is amazing and the sopng is even more amazing i love it i jam to it all the time ahaha

[piechocolatethedos]

Whenever my friends and I are talking about weird music videos, I always bring them here.

[EduOrtibar]

:E

[GreenBatwoman]

CUM ?!?!?! i guess barny just got to mush in her ....EW!

[thekook33]

Got Milk?

[lilravingvilletho]

@thekook33 actually its got CUM? haha :D

[thekook33]

@lilravingvilletho but there are no guy beetles there

[lilravingvilletho]

@thekook33 i dont get it : o

[thekook33]

@lilravingvilletho at 4:33 the place starts to get filled up by that white liquid.What I'm trying to say is if that is enough or do you need more (of the liquid which reminded me of milk). get it?

[lilravingvilletho]

@thekook33 no i dont get it and thats not liquid well it is but its men liquid not milk (if you know what im saying) (; haha

[sbutros]

@thekook33 that's supposed to be milk?...oh come on!

[thekook33]

@sbutros what ? are you mad, disappointed? with what i said

[nickylane2295]

At :17... I was like "Some shit's about to go down!"

[SoulZuesFtw]

and this my boy is where the milk that u drink with ur cereal comes from

[miguelrockstar120]

orgasm?

[Ssaratu]

Holy shit! I enjoyed that WAY more than I expected to.

[dreamvue1]

This is one fascinating, dark and visually stunning video. Taking the the ritual of the beetle and interpreting it from a futuristic human perspective is just artistic genius. And Interpol, they never disappoint.

[rally240]

@dreamvue1 wow, how cliche, know it all art student. Are you sure your not one of the douches in my design classes?

[dreamvue1]

@rally240 Ahhh...I feel so special? It's just not every day I incite little boys to the point of responding to my post. PS: Other than this 5 seconds I just paid you some attention, you are irrelevant. Now go back to your room, get out your crayons and do something constructive with your life. xoxo

[rally240]

@dreamvue1 Oh yeah, you got me.....crayons. Cool...i guess. xoxo

[Riot1TV]

Reminds me of earlier bands like The Cure and Joy Division.

Great band.

[mrbmxican253]

oohh thats strange..... what ever floats ur boat i guess

[TheAlicia0807]

I like this,I don't quite understand it,but I like it ! (:

[KurtisWeird]

This is the video where they try too hard.

[exqusiteXXvibrations]

I love this video. yay pheramones!!

[MyDigitaLifes]

What's the point ?

[IEmmanuelleI]

Star Wars ?

[IndieElmoAndLove]

Almost 1,000,000 Views !! (:

[Anonx82]

Check out this new group Retro Lake. visit their website

[angi9626]

muy buen video me encanta interpool :D :D :D



[elementalfiend]

Interpol has had some weird videos before but this is fucking ridiculous.

[bradleyaustinspurlin]

shouldve had 2% milk, maybe then it wouldnt bleed from you

[jessie1793]

Excellent!

[Nothingface2011]

WTF

[SolaceMusicChannel]

As much as I love Interpol and this song, what in the fuck is the meaning of this video? Was Interpol trying to be abstract and unique while actually appearing as some Lady Gaga try hard to stand out cliche? Or am I missing the "big picture" of how the song actually relates to a girl crying and spitting white liquid into a drain while humping the shit out of a box?

[stevenjaypark]

@SolaceMusicChannel true light comes from within...? That's what I'm taking from this

[SolaceMusicChannel]

@stevenjaypark If only I could believe that's what this video meant to portray lol.

[DaBlackOrihime]

Bukkake much?

[MrSieish]

Red Lights :) 

[MokoloVellocet]

Who the fuck disliked this?

[IWrocker]

this is a strikingly bizarre video, but its very cool.

[mattmoreira252]

What genre would this song fall under?

[jkgcc]

@mattmoreira252 the best one

[massivebig1]

@mattmoreira252 interpol is pretty much post-punk, coming from bands like joy division and new order and shit.

[mattmoreira252]

@massivebig1 That's whats up

[quik70silver]

Wow, I just did something i should not have done.. I watched this when I was super high, and now... Ummmmmmm

[shesthunderstorms23]

This video and specially this song are amazing. It has beautiful lyrcis and the music is just captivating, it moves me, it sort of hurts me but it's a serene pain...it bothers you quitely. I don't understand how people can mock it, it's one of Interpol's best

[johnjohnsmithy100]

1:11 i know what that looks like... 0.o

[ramses86]

any good woman knows you should NEVER spit out! you should ALWAYS swallow :_

[mattmoreira252]

@ramses86 Good one

[azjustinsmail]

Interpol makes me want to have sex with my wife.

[j1j1c1]

imagine a little girl listening to this. and shes wearing green headphones.

[vergus21]

ummm a very stylish Drugs :S

[MrGomey]

what the fuck is this video about!!!!

[demonblond14]

@MrGomey it's based off of a beetle ceremony where a pheremone doe is taken to a special area (the rock) where she excites herself and excretes a strong pheremone that acts as a drug to other beetles... it took me a long time to figure that out

[anthonyVs11]

Gave me a boner

[QuicksilverHammer]

am i the only one being freaked out by this?

[MrSieish]

ack

[Noix0dix]

in soviet russia, future comes before present im russian from 1876 >:3

[Cownanas]

so THATS where milk comes from!! :D

[IzzyCW1]

Can't tell if really drugged, or lesbian freaks. ;P

[DeirdreMayfairBanks]

sexy

[velvethome]

It's a weird video and I love it. The song is awesome, forget about "waiting for it to start" when it has started already! How many more things are you missing while waiting for something to start! Enjoy the song!

[KevinMoralesAvila]

Cuando vi el vídeo me recordó a The Holy Mountain.

[RoHcket]

wonder what my boyfriend would say if i wore those outfits. LOL

[deathbyfairy]

And that's why I'm sticking with pot.

[ThisDanceScaresMe]

3:45  I dnt think that was an accident..

[lilypandareach88]

i guess she couldn't swallow....

[wolfennyc]

@lilypandareach88 LMAO!!!

Without a doubt the line of this whole entire thread....genius man

[demonblond14]

This video is apparently based off of a species of beetle that has one pheremone (or drug) producing female and other beetles that aid in gathering the pheremone. The female must be escorted to a certain area where she becomes aroused and starts excreting the peremone from her eyes, mouth, ad fingers... yea, strange

[thekook33]

@demonblond14 what do you mean by "aroused"?

[demonblond14]

@thekook33 by aroused, I mean sexually excited

[thekook33]

@demonblond14 ok thank you for explaining

[vdubaful]

I felt like i was waiting for the song to actually start the entire song.

[jado818]

@vdubaful said "I felt like i was waiting for the on to actually start the entire song"

I agree... what a waste of a video let alone a song.... ill sum it up in one word

Uninspired.

[fsfsfsfsfsfsg]

@vdubaful but you never stopped listening... that's the magic of interpol

[mattmoreira252]

@vdubaful me too

[kamikaze777insomniac]

gross

[AdultSwimCorp]

These lyrics are so mystical to a sense, that his mind concieved of a dark atmsopheric hell on earth, as if we are trapped within our personal views of Hell/Heaven on earth as we are at war within our own minds. We can live each day as it's our last, as if death is what we should fear, when what we should really fear is not living life to our full potentials. This was just a food for thought sudden realization as I replayed this track. That's what opinion resonates with this track.

[014Abe]

did the lady at the end have an explosive orgasm?

[TheEvilBunniez]

It reminds me of tron.

[crystalsaete]

the last image was the world population in sperm

[sogofkurslf]

Creepy Robot Bondage Porn :/

[Rsetness9]

[Qwentux]

[009fleuramour]

excelente dirección de cámaras, fotografía, edición, maquillaje, peinados, lo único que no me gustó bueno el mensaje no esta cool! pero no todo podía ser perfect ja!

[XxLizMesserschmittXx]

What the fuck just happened. . .

[jnbcali]

This song is soo F* n brilliant!!! Can't get enough of it...I have to be in the right headspace though otherwise it may pull me under. Pretty powerful stuff. Although the video is interesting and artsy, it def doesn't match what I feel in the song. And the opening message??? Very bizarre...maybe that's what they aimed for  just an atmospheric tone and visual obscurity

[ThisDanceScaresMe]

@singerhp19 extremely confused...

[XoHopscotchXo]

Hot rail. lol.

[icucmetoo1]

LACTOSE INTOLLERENCE,,,GOT MILK !

[dmperfection]

@kkmarie87 I once heard a joke that reminded me of the girl on the table...the punch line was, "body in Room 3 is full!"

[KikuriEmma]

this video gets me confused..

[IbrahimJason]

thats not how you get pregnant... 1:08

[turtlegurllie]

I like the song, but I don't understand how the music video fits with it.

[MixVonGrimm]

@turtlegurllie neither do I :S

hell yeah Interpol, seen them twice and will continue anytime they're within 7 hours of me. I love that they got weird in this video. They're awesoooome and their fans are some of the coolest fans ever.
