3 years ago I used to cry every time I put this song on my headphones, which was actually everyday.
3 years apart and I'm actually a different person, living a happy life.
So if you came here to cry - feel free, all of us had been there.
Just remember - you will be happy again.
Yes. It's one of the places I come to cry and I cry very well here.
Thank you to make us feel less guilty.
Thank you Robert c:
Thank you 😊
thank you for the hopes :) I listen to this in my very worst times, and still today i came to here, to let all the pain away, still hanging to the bottle, and cannot let it go away for sure, but I hope I can, at least stop falling into this hole again... This song tells 100% the feeling...
I needed those words so much, thank you
Placebo are so underated
Liam Obee u don't know what you're talking about.
Yes, it´s fucking truth.
Oh , I was looking for that "Placebo are so underrated" comment. No, they are not even close to "underrated". They are famous. Underrated would mean that you never heard of them in your life, hence you wouldn't be here to comment that they are underrated. You would not know they exist.
Hate that people assume the "suck you dry" bit is sexual. Did you not listen to the rest of the song at all? Its about being a burden on someone you love.
Sean ite
I interpret it as when someone lets you down time and time again they suck you dry as in draining all the energy out of you 😢
Lemon Ste I drank myself into oblivion after my mum died in 1987 and I wrecked friendships and relationships until a friend helped pull me away in 1995...now I just drink Pepsi and Tea! When I first heard this song it destroyed me because I realised it summed up my life at the time. My God, what a truly amazing song.
Nearly cried when i read this. I know what you mean but in a slightly different way.....
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Placebo, I love you more than any man.
Placebo, we love you more than any man
Brian Molko, I love you more than any man.
I'm lesbian but for Brian..half hour bisex...why not? 24 years i listen 'em...
And nothings getting in the way
Just nineteen, a sucker's dream
I guess i thought you had the flavour
I just found this (haven't listened Placebo for long time). This song has touched me deeply. It feels like through this song, someone truly understands what it is like being in relationship with an addict. And because the song is written from addicts perspective, it makes it even more powerful. Addicts are people too, and they can love someone deeply, but the addiction is always "getting in the way".
Yes, I'm one of those who have hoped their partner to overcome an addiction, but have been waiting for too long to the detriment of my own well-being. Now, after 11 years and countless "second chances", I'm going to end this relationship.. I can't save him, but I have to save my self.
So.... did you? What happened?
Don't you get it? She was the one sucking him dry, not the other way around.
llorare por vos😢
mando un abrazo
FlavusFeles Perfectly put! Sometimes you have to cut someone loose or end up destroying your own life by staying. I love songs like this despite how painful they are, Made Of Stone and Fossa by Daughter are also wonderful. I'd certainly check out Daughter, you should love them.
Thank you for sharing.
I still cannot get why this guys ain't more famous, this is pure ART.
Agreed. Can't wait for next album. Excellent band
Placebo are very very famous.
@@milanmiric5534 I think they're just bigger in Europe, right? They tour there all the time, and they haven't touched the US at great length (beyond California and a few other huge cities) since 2014. The Western market just isn't there for them.
Very famous and very much a European band. Every album since '96 reached the top 20 in UK. They still play many international festivals and tour constantly.In 2020 they are working on their latest 8th album, delayed by the pandemic.. Glad you've found them.
It's a quiet little resort. We don't need legions of half-assed tourists. Enjoy the peace.
Placebo как хорошее, дорогое вино... Проходят дни, месяца, года... Любовь к песням Placebo лишь крепчает и становится лучше и незабываемее....
Brian's voice is so beautiful and so emotional WOW !
This song goes for my Boyfriend who passed away yesterday... I love you more that any man but something is getting in the way.... Always in my heart German :'( now you left me so alone
Blind was the most heartbreaking song for me, but I think I've found another one. Beautiful.
which performer?
@@Crazystraz Placebo
@@AntoniatheUniverse on the same day I found this song and listened to it, beautiful song
the violins....
The violins ♥
It gave me goosebumps!
SiafaSax the violins. ♡♡♡
Muy buena
Buena ahh
This is my first time actually, properly listening to Placebo. Must say, I'm impressed.
Well if I wasn't inclined to check 'em out before, I sure am now. Thanks, friend.
Right back at ya!
When you hear this song the first time, a bit rough, a bit ouch. Repeated listening just reminds you that people can be horrible at love, but still love. You see the video. The rough gets even more abrasive. The ouch, a bit more sting to it. And then you realize this song was you, and how rough you made it on others, and how much "ouch" people experienced while loving and caring for you. You feel like you've failed... ...But post-failure, you remember you're still here, lamenting, mourning, putting yourself through hell. And when you check a calendar, you realize it's not then. It's today.
Try MTV version😇
Lol, I can’t listen to this song without tears on my face. My ex had sent me this song before we broke up. This song describes our relationships very well. Thank u, Brian. Lyrics are powerful and full of sense. Melancholy perfection.
I also threw this song to my ex-girlfriend when everything was already going to part. Still love her...
It's 5 am
And I'm listening to placebo songs
This fucking hurts to the core.
yes.
This song makes me cry.
I love the video, and the song it's the best of the album. Wonderfull!
This is a beautiful song but makes me sad. A real Placebo's song.
Agree
That's the real placebo effect
“I do you harm because I can”. This sentence, alas, sums up too many “love” stories we live in our life.
the look she gives him at like 3:19 - 3:22 along with the words and just everything, it kills me every time. It just encompasses the meaning of the song and entire video in one shot. I've watched it all through a ton of times and have figured out the storyline despite the - genius, but - kinda warped idea of time. And it's fucking heartbreaking.
I think it's about a guy who's kind of a burden on his girlfriend, maybe gets drunk a lot, is an alcoholic like Brian is describing in the song (but it's hard to tell due to the rewinding of events) Everything happens in a weird order in this. I guess the version of the story they're trying to tell is that his girlfriend is cheating on him with another woman, who had to hide in the wardrobe, he proposed to his girlfriend and I guess she said no. I think they say "i love you" when he leaves but it's difficult to lip read. He then hears/sees the other woman and his girlfriend closes the door on him. He goes off, gets wasted and generally puts himself in danger. Seems like he gets in an accident through drink driving but then he seems fine after. idk. He gets mugged so the ring is gone, and gets home to see the bed the two women have inevitably shared, yet still he sleeps there. I guess the bit at the beginning of the video is the next morning. Maybe they're going to continue the cycle of destruction in their relationship.
The actual order of events is really muddled, it's probably the total opposite, as suggested by the intro.
This is incredibly simplified and I know all this seems obvious but just in case someone is as confused as i was at the start and isn't committed enough (kidding) to rewatch it loads, that's the gist of it. It's less about the story though, more about capturing the pain in the song and the characters of the video.
+Lemon Ste you just read my mind.
I think he knows he is the matter in their relationship and he tries to get things better after all, but it's just too late. she loves him anyway but she can't take it anymore so she has a lover. he gets back home and see their bed messed up because of the two girls, but he has nowhere to go so he fall asleep in his desperation continuing "the cycle of destruction in their relationship".
sorry for my bad english
+vinicius turner no I totally get you. agreed
+Lemon Ste hey, I think you're have a great interpretation of the video as it is presented, your thought that the scenes are not in order got me curious, I'm not quite sure how you perceive the timeline to be ordered though.
I am 99% sure that the Bedroom scene (specifically the clips with the 3 actors in) is played in reverse (not reverse order, but rewind) while the rest of the video is straight forward. The most obvious clue is when the mistress "leaves" the closet...BACKWARDS at 4:41, and the reason you can't read his lips is because it's in reverse. it makes the production of this video really beautiful to me.
This video makes great use of filming, editing and stereotypes to suggest that the guy is the problem, yet he did nothing wrong. I feel people are more likely to assume that the guy is the problem when in fact, in this situation, it is the girl. So if the bedroom is ordered normally, not rewinded what happens is
-Girls are making out on bed, door knob rattles, guy is trying to get in.
-Mistress hides in closet, GF stresses out, unlocks door, guy looks in, wonders what was going on.
-Intense staring, both are nervous, GF about cheating, guy about his planned proposal, guy starts confessing love or such, holds hands.
-Guy proposes, GF like "OMG", feels guilty, starts crying.
-Guy realizes GF won't marry him, puts AWAY ring into his wallet, GF apologizes/comforts him.
-GF leads him TO bed (guy might've seen mistress here) they lay in bed and cuddle for old times sake, he lays there distraught. (I get the impression she didn't tell him she was cheating, but he saw the mistress and is depressingly aware that the mistress is just feet away or otherwise, just distraught about rejected proposal and doesn't even know about cheating)
-In the future, guy is out drinking, trying to move on with girl in red dress, fucks it up somehow, night goes terrible.
Returns home where he now lives alone (assumably) and misses his (now ex) GF
the way the video is presented, the guy starts out sad, proposes, gets rejected, guy becomes happy and leaves and the GF starts making out with her mistress STRAIGHT AFTER she rejects his proposal and the rest of that emotional moment?!?! she's not that heartless and that doesn't make sense.
No, guy starts off happy, proposes, gets rejected, guy is now empty inside, mindlessly follows GF to bed where they lay as a form of comfort to the guy
In the beginning, the video editing tells you that the guy is a drunk and a cheat, but obviously that is not the case, the GF is the cheater, so why trust what it says about him being a "drunk loser", the drinking is him trying to cope after the breakup. The video is lying to you, you can't trust how it has been presented.
So given this, my interpretation is that the guy got utterly fucked over by the GF, not that she was trying to fuck him over, but she cheated on him, which caused her to reject his proposal, then they surely break up after that, he ends up miserable and alone, she ends up happy, she cheated yet she gets to be happy. He did nothing wrong, but he ends up depressed and alone, hopelessly trying to replace her and drink-coping.
+Thumper8544 I totally agree! You made a lot more sense of it than I did. I was kinda thrown off by the time stuff. I think that as well as that being the intent - maybe convincing the viewer he was the problem, at first - I think the time stuff and repeated cheating scenes are to show how tormented he is over the whole thing, reliving it or imagining what he did not really see (he only saw the mistress as we know). I also think thats why it ended badly with the other girl, he pushes her away or acts badly because he's reliving thoughts of his girlfriend. Having the story backwards this way puts it in perspective, almost shames the girl i thought more really. It was a no brainer to me at the time that the night stuff would be afterwards so I don't think "he's a cheater" and the idea he was a drunk was more me applying the lyrics to the situation.
+Lemon Ste yeah, the bedroom scene is really beautifully done, I cannot imagine the work that went into trying to produce a scene that makes sense/looks right forwards and backwards. it's also scary how easily you assume he cheats just because of that opening shot.
The video was timed to the song in such a way to mislead you, this whole video is misleading, it's brilliant :)
if you have ever loved anybody and this does'nt move you, then you have no soul. this band delivers.
Placebo,is a good band.
Best UK Band ever
"But then i drink it all away" could mean a lot, not just in the literal sense of being an alcoholic. It could mean from an emotional sense, repeating the same behaviours over and over or even from a mental health issue falling back into the "black hole" of depression and making your partner have to go through the emotional roller coaster with the person suffering with depression. It can be just as exhausting for the partner having to deal with the sufferer aswell as the person suffering from depression, hence the term "suck you dry"
It's funny how when I listen to placebo...I don't just hear...I feel the music. Thank you placebo. U are the only music that can do that for me.
I was fan of this band when I was 4, now I'm 16 and I still love Placebo. They're just awesome !
I agree completely they're awesome, I was a fan when I was 25, yay! ..... Still a fan and I'll be 50 this year booo!
This voice…💙
We will miss a group like this... unbelievable talent..
Fukin brilliant
"Victims we are not of happenstance
But you're a victim all the same
Stuck inside a circumstance
With your confusion and your blame"
Amazing song.
Emotional and Lyrical genius.
No puedo creer que una versión y canción como esta apenas tenga un poco más de 1 millón de vistas :( , Placebo siempre estará entre una de mis bandas favoritas :)
Quando la musica diventa commerciale, perde tutta la sua originalità...il buon vino, si trova nella botte piccola 😉 siamo meno del 10% della popolazione mondiale, a poter capire il linguaggio dell' amore incondizionato ❤
This song is... beautiful. I cry every time I am listening to it.
Piano and violins are wonderful.
My introduction to Placebo was through the movie Cruel Intentions. "Every You Every Me" captured my attention and I was hooked. The Counting Crows' song "colorblind" was also on the soundtrack, and Placebo's "Bosco" brings back the emotions of hearing "Colorblind" for the first time. I had to get each album that first week, and just disappear into the music, Brian's vocals, and lyrics. Placebo is life-changing. Thank you Placebo
So proud I saw them live
i used to love this song because it was so beautiful and heartbreaking.
now i love it because i'm living it and i've never understood it better.
Get out. I've lived it for five long years. It won't get better and he will not change. Stay true to yourself!
Magic, meaningful,soulful
hey I hope you're in a happier healthier place now 🤍
it deserves more views ;(
Why does such a masterpiece lack the high count views it deserves and other "music" that it's tune and lyrics are pure crap get millions? I just don't get it. Why?!
This song is six and a half minutes of pure perfection
Good Music such as this just is not for the Masses!
You see, It all depends. I am a metalhead since I was 12 and I only discovered Placebo 4 years ago and since then I don't understant why I was so reluctant to even try. But there are lot of people who don't like neither placebo nor thrash metal that I like the most. Which is totally fine, to each their own. Let's just enjoy the music we like and not pay attention to what these petty ones have to say about it.
If you like it - enjoy, if you don't - just go and find what you like, Belittling others' tastes is probably the worst one can do... to themselves.
Don't concern yourself with what others think enjoy the song for yourself it doesn't need others approval
Esistono le canzoni , e poi ci sono le poesie come questo magnifico brano !!!! BEAUTIFOL .......
i gave my soulmate the choice. Stop taking the drugs or open the door...get out of the car and walk away.
I drove home alone that night. My life has been great since. I just lost my soulmate though.
this too shall pass..
Marita Levonian nice...youve got a bit of an artistic vibe about you.
thank you :) well im studying graphic design and i like anything related to art :)
sorry i can't win with opiates.
Damn. Lived a similar situation, except he didn't want to decide, and I had to do it for both. So I left the man I've loved the most.
why i don't see some millions of views?!
because the world is shit and most people have awful taste
I love this band so much.Thank you for continuing to create some of my favorite music of all time. True artistry from the lyrics to the music, Placebo is such an amazing band.
One of the most humane song I’ve ever heard.♥️🌹
Perfect. I love the alternative videos!! Thank you Brian!
this song is amazing!
los amo
If you're in such a relationship, run. Run for your sanity, run away like you life is at stake, because it is.
Narcissistic abusive relationship
The perfect song to follow begin the end. Two songs I struggle to listen to without welling up
до мурашек по коже...
Amo a placebo la verdad, cada vez me enamoro mas del grupo y su música mis respetos. Felicidades son los mejores
Yeah, i love this group of individuals playing there music snd hitting a hard gor in me. Thankyou
Perfect song
Genial el video. Hay que verlo 2 veces para entenderlo. Juega con el flashback a la vez que hace mover hacia atrás o hacia delante a los personajes. Si alguien no lo ha pillado, la novia del chico se enamora de otra chica y él intenta recuperarla con el anillo pero nada. Al final ella queda feliz con su nueva pareja y él intenta olvidarla yéndose con otra pero no puede porque los recuerdos le matan
sonec88 Es un bajón, estoy pasando por una situación muy similar y no está bueno.
sonec88 lo gracias por explicarlo
Muchas gracias por la explicación, no lo había entendido a la primera.
D pura acsualidad sabes si las escenas son parte d alguna película o serie?
@@avetsaahid590 No lo sé, creo que el video es exclusivo, pero no estoy seguro.
This song really is about what I just went through with an alcoholic boyfriend ! I cannot believe it thank you Brian !!!
The best of album
the best song of this album ♥
Perfectly summarizes pain and happiness at once. Eternal and etheral.
Da gusto encontrar un rato de calma para escuchar su música, que se echa de menos cuando uno no tiene tiempo de para si mismo.
this song means so much to me
I love this song!!! Thanks, Placebo!!! Great video. See you in Buenos Aires, Argentina
Just WAUW !!!!! GOOSBUMP, FAST BEATING HEART, TEARS IN MY EYES, BEAUTIFUL !!!🖤🖤🖤
un capolavoro, mi emoziona ogni volta che la sento
Une chanson bien spéciale pour moi, un bonheur éphémère et tellement de souffrance ensuite...mais ne jamais rien regretter..
the guys are getting better, thanx for all your work. true band always a pleasure listening, like all great artistes progressing
the song was really sad but the video is heartbreaking
I don't understand the video tbh
@@peterrobb2328 he loved the girl so much, he even proposed to her but she is a lesbian, she doesn't love him so she rejects him, he comes back home depressed and someone assaults him
another beautiful picture of imperfect love. I love you always Placebo xxxx
Amo este video y cancion por Dios ♥
stunning track from a band than never fail to deliver
Quoi dire à part que ce slow est une tuerie !!!
I do love PLACEBO & Brian Molko : great artist. All my respects and all my love for your songs &.your legacy ! ( Friendly from France)

Sounds pretty close to the old Placebo and it makes it magical. The video is awesome! well well done!
And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm.
When I get drunk, you take me home.
Great song!!
This song makes my heart bleed and I can't help it. But somehow its beauty makes me listen to it over and over and over...
Guys, thx you for such a nice song. adore Placebo all songs.
I love both the video and the song!!!
