    They need to give the actor in this video more credit. He perfectly captured the gaze of someone who is completely burnt out and grasps the hopelessness of working these types of jobs. As someone who has been there and seen the same look on the face of coworkers and even my bathroom mirror, he captures it perfectly.

    I love how the music and the environment move together. The way the workers shift in their seats with the growl of the music, the coal trembling to the beat of the percussion, the giant smoke monster at the end awakening and morphing as the music announces its terrifying arrival. The music and video accompany each other really well, it really brings the weight of the music to life. It's so subtle, but beautifully executed.

    Headcanon:
    The miner in the video is the same kid we've seen in "Run Boy Run," all grown up. He feels lost without a purpose, and he's throwing all this energy into something he thinks is unfulfilling. He still has an overactive imagination, but now it's used to conjure up dark and disturbing thoughts, and he feels trapped in them, in both the real world and the world shaped by the reality he's in now.

    Lyrics/Paroles:
    The chest and the head divided by a white laser.
    The pattern of mad strobes, you’re going haywire,
    In your eyes night cold I see the end of us.
    You're playing your best role, but the mask shatters.
    Where are you going boy?
    When did you get so lost?
    How could you be so blind?
    How could you be so blind?
    A sustained heart pain and a dark fever,
    How did I get fooled by such a savage curse?
    The more I forgive you, the more it backfires.
    Now you’re dancing through the smoke like nothing else matters.
    Where are you going boy?
    When did you get so lost?
    How could you be so blind?
    How could you be so blind?
    Traduction:
    La poitrine et la tête divisées par un laser blanc.
    Le dessin de stroboscope foux, tu te détraques,
    Dans tes yeux nuit froide je vois la fin de nous.
    Tu joues ton meilleur rôle, mais le masque tombe.
    Où vas tu garçon?
    Depuis quand es tu si perdu?
    Comment peux tu être aussi aveugle?
    Comment peux tu être aussi aveugle?
    Une peine de cœur soutenue et une fièvre noire,
    Comment ai je pu être trompé par une si sauvage malédiction?
    Plus je t'oublie, plus ça se retourne contre moi.
    Maintenant, tu danses à travers la fumée comme si rien d'autre n'avait d'importance.
    Où vas tu garçon?
    Depuis quand es tu si perdu?
    Comment peux tu être aussi aveugle?
    Comment peux tu être aussi aveugle?

    • @GodActio
      @GodActio Před 2 lety +1

      I think the issue is that our impact can be significant, but it also isn't due to just how colossal the earth truly is. Resource management and good stewardship is important. We want to preserve our environment because we live here. Very few would care about mining an asteroid or the far side of the moon, or mars. As far as emissions goes, we've been 10 years from global catastrophe for fifty years, lol. As in politicians wanting to pad their foreign bank and company pockets always try to pass laws restricting local energy production so that they can earn fat bank from their foreign investments selling extremely marked up energy back to us.
      Plus, we have nuclear, the cleanest and safest power source ever discovered, yet these 'green' politicians curb it at every chance to lock local energy production down so that they can force us to by foreign energy at extreme mark ups. If we went to nuclear fission + electric cars, we could have vastly reduced our fossil fuel consumption by like 99% (we still need petroleum products to produce medicines, polymers, batteries, tires, roads, concrete, buildings), so we could use it to build instead of burn.
      In other words, if you see a 'green' politician shutting down fossil fuels / coal, but not promoting nuclear - or going against nuclear as well, he's just lining his own pockets and doesn't give a shit about the environment, and in fact hurts it, as we will instead import our fuels, which drastically raises the amount of CO2 generated from transportation.

    Woodkid is a better director than actual Hollywood folks. Everytime he's involved with something behind the camera (The Rihanna Anti Trailers, the Black Atlass clip, and many others) and the visual artistry is out of this world, and of course the music is awesome. He clearly has a strong visual and musical identity, and I feel like that could work really well in movie form. I'm sure he could get something going with a few phone calls.

Us over here sitting pretty in suburbia only see the effects through screens, (...ignoring corona, but most are far too small minded to comprehend the connection and this ain't the point) those in poverty, though? Aka those without masks? They're hit full force by it's effects. The hallucinations, in the metaphor.

    "Down there where coal is dug is a sort of world apart which one can quite easily go through life without ever hearing about.
    Probably majority of people would even prefer not to hear about it. Yet it is the absolutely necessary counterpart of our world above. Practically everything we do, from eating an ice to crossing the Atlantic, and from baking a loaf to writing a novel, involves the use of coal, directly or indirectly. [...]
    In order that Hitler may march the goose step, that the Pope may denounce Bolshevism, that the cricket crowds may assemble at Lords, that the poets may scratch one another’s backs,
    coal has got to be forthcoming."

Nuclear is also an option but always carries hazards, even with modern reactors. Fusion is the holy grail of energy production with virtually limitless fuel and close to no downsides. We should pool all our resources into fusion research, it would solve the energy requirements for the forseeable future and beyond.

    I absolutely see this as an extension of the music videos from The Golden Age. The videos for Run Boy Run, I Love You and Iron all seemed to be dealing with the struggle of mankind and breaking away from nature. Iron shows people and animals together, battling something unseen, later revealed to be the city and priest in RBR and ILY. To me, these seemed like spirits of nature, fighting for the soul of man, trying to get them to return and not enter modernity and corruption. RBR (I initially thought) was about growing up and wanting to stay young. But now I see that it's about innocence, and childlike purity and wanting to remain one with the natural world, being ruined by adulthood, and by extension, man's evolution to what we are today. In both of these videos there's an abundance of natural figures.; the animals, the scenery, even the wooden and grass monsters in RBR. ILY follows the boy's death and then the preacher. Here we have a more modernized and more adult man. He recognizes it's too late to turn back and he sees the damage separating from nature has done. He feels deep remorse for this and longs to return, but doesn't seem to know how. The visuals are split, just like RBR, between natural imagery, and more sterile, human imagery. The vast expanse of nature makes up half of the video. And the long rivers and natural paths in earth's geography mirrors the roads and conveyor belts in Goliath. There are direct visual parallels between ILY, RBR and Goliath. Woodkid did this before in RBR with the ram-headed creature immediately cutting to the building with the facade of a similar composition. The city in RBR, is almost identical to the shot of the coal processing plant in Goliath. He's drawing these parallels to show this is the next step, it's all one long story. Only now, nature is dead. It's nothing but manufacturing, industry and destruction. Our man here, is having an awakening about the state of things, visibly disturbed, with every other human very apathetic to the devastation at hand. The lyrics I think are form the point of view of the earth, as if speaking to mankind. The monster at the end I think will be something that can retaliate, bring the destruction of man to restore balance. Which is so poetic and accurate. We cannot reap destruction to our home without it, in turn destroying us. Hopefully we can come full circle and change before it's too late. I have no idea what path the next videos will take, but speaking in terms of real life, I desperately hope there is a positive outcome, and that it's not too late, and than we can get back in touch with our natural side and live harmoniously with nature. It's a brilliant saga that Woodkid has put together here in such an artful and powerful way.

    My view of Goliath: The worker resembles the small percentage of us that frees himself from "human blindness" and starts seeing the repercussions of his and others acts; these days we turn a blind eye to Earth's corrosion, stone by stone as a result we "blindly" created Goliath, which we see in the end, as the monster. But is this Goliath Earth's champion? Or is he here to retribute Man's pollution fingerprint? The best part is the freedom this music gives us to imagine and reflect ;) Amazing music and message as always Woodkid ;) Thank you!
